I’m The Demon Lord But I Died And Now I’m The Hero’s Best Friend - Chapter 89

It was a surprising day in the adventurers guild. There was a ton of people that suddenly registered as adventurers. Of course, this event got the attention of the guild master, Nezzard. Yet the moment he looked he saw the irritating sly face of Ren. Nezzard knew that Ren was once again up to something. These guys were obviously people he knew. As Nezzard was scanning the newly registered adventurers he saw two familiar faces. When he looked even closer, he was shocked to see who the two were. The bulging mass of muscles that stood like a giant was none other than the bandit king Iselv. The beautiful maiden wearing provocative clothes, was the witch, the succubus of the night Kithra. Those two were big shots in the underworld, especially here in Grenton, the two practically own Grenton and here they are registering as adventurers. Nezzard noticed that the two were especially respectful to Ren. This made him guess numerous things about Ren’s current relationship to the underworld organizations. It was then Ren saw the lazy guild master and approached him with a smiling face. ] Seeing that smile on Ren’s face Nezzard could already guess, he was once again going to ask for something unreasonable. “Hey guild master, long time no see.” “What the hell are you saying, we just met yesterday.” Nezzard looked at Ren with an unhappy face. This guy always knew what to say, to make him the most irritated. “Oh, is that so. Well anyway, you see guild master I have a request to make.” “Another request, you do know I’m not your servant. Shouldn’t you give something in return before I agree to another one of these requests of yours? How come it’s always me who gives and gets nothing in return.” “Hmm, I see, I guess you’re right in saying that. How about this, you still need some help in your never-ending paperwork right? So how about I give you five people that can help you with that. They’ll be your personal assistants and do all the work for you.” When Nezzard heard what Ren said, he was visibly shaken. That offer truly was tempting to him, but he couldn’t just take it. The guild master could only take a trustworthy person as a secretary since the documents they handle is very sensitive information related to the guild. Nezzard could only gnash his teeth, as he answered Ren. “No can do, I can’t have outsiders handle that kind of work.” “Then what do you want me to do, so that you would listen to my request?” When Ren asked this, Nezzard started thinking. What could he possibly ask of this irritating person that only brings trouble to him? The only thing noteworthy about the guy was his extreme sickening combat prowess. Aside from that what else was he good at? ‘He does look like a schemer of sorts. Seeing the respect Iselv and Kithra are showing him, must mean he also has high charisma… I wonder what should I make him do?’ “For now I have nothing I need from you. So how about owing me a favor. The next time I need something, I’ll call for you, and no matter what I ask you should do it. How about that, if you agree to this, I won’t mind helping you out again.” Nezzard smirked at Ren. ‘How about that, even you, should have a problem accepting those terms.’ “Sure. As long as it’s something that doesn’t require me to die, then why not.” Ren answered without hesitation. Hearing Ren’s answer, Nezzard was truly surprised. “What?! Are you sure about this?” “What are you fussing around for, Nezzard. Weren’t you the one who set this condition? Why is it you, that looks more worried than me?” This time it was Ren’s turn to smirk at Nezzard. Seeing that look of Ren’s, as if he was saying everything was going as planned made Nezzard even more irritated. “Fine then, what is it you want?” Nezzard gave up and asked Ren. “Nothing much, I just want you to make all my friends that just registered as adventurers, to be given D ranks.” “Huh, is that all?” Nezzard couldn’t believe what he heard. He was so sure, that Ren was about to ask for something unreasonable, but this time he just requested something so simple. ‘This isn’t worth him owing me a favor… Since it’s him there must be something deeper going on.’ “Why, do you want me to ask for something more?” “No, fine, I’ll make all your companions into D rank adventurers.” Nezzard quickly headed to one of the receptionists and told her a few things. … After a short while, the receptionist returned and gave the people their guild cards. “There I fulfilled my end of the bargain, so I hope when the time comes you’ll fulfill yours.” Nezzard said this to Ren with a stern face. “Of course, I am a man of my word. See yah guild master.” Ren turned around and headed to his people that were now newly registered adventurers. “So now that you guys are adventurers, hmm, let’s see… First I want the guys who don’t know magic to form two teams with six members, and one team will have five members. As for those who know magic, as well as Iselv, you’ll be coming with me. As for the three teams, here are the quests that I want you to finish within the day.” Ren then handed the three teams, three quests for each team, that he took from the quest board. All of these quests were subjugation quests. “The team that finishes their quest last, will be punished. So you guys better apply for those quests right now and finish them as fast as possible… You guys better do your best, as for the future losers, I do look forward to punishing you guys.” Seeing that evil smile on Ren’s face, the three teams started running to the guild receptionists. Seeing them scatter about in fright made Ren chuckle. He then faced the members that will accompany him today. “As for you guys, will be doing something special for your training, follow me.” Ren was now walking out of the building, while the others follow him out. Little did they know, what awaits them in this training, was the sight of hell itself.
