Chapter 868: Making A Deal With An Outer God
-----
FLAAASH!
As I decided to make a pact with her and take advantage of how desperate this Outer One seemed to be about earning some Essence, Sangre's powers flowed into my magic circle.
The Magic Circle absorbed them and quickly began spinning, the Warlock Path activated, as many Eldritch Runes were generated.
An indestructible connection between the two of us was made in that moment, at the same time, Blood and Darkness enshrouded the two of us.
For a moment, I found myself floating within an endless sea of stars, Sangre slowly shapeshifted her humanoid form, her monstrous and near endless shape emerging before me.
"State your conditions, Asmodeus."
With a soul-tearing voice that reverberated across my entire being, she spoke with a rather pissed off voice.
"Your true form is truly indecipherable."
She got slightly angrier.
"Why should I care what you think about how I look? I used to be as beautiful as I showed you before. I am the mother of all of you little blood children, have some respect."
"I have no respect, and you're not my mother."
"Tch… Such a bold and reckless personality! But… that's pretty hot, honestly~!"
Her monstrous form seemed to be drooling as she looked at me with her endless amount of eyes…
"I can tell why women fall for you so much! You're such a courageous and rebellious man! Who wouldn't fall for you? Hm? So how about we have some children together?"
"Enough with your jokes…"
"They're not jokes! I can take any shape you want! Please, bless me with your delicious seed!"
"You Outer Ones are truly insane."
As I said that, I was writing some details in a paper that manifested in front of me.
"Hmmm~ Don't you know that I am not completely alone? There are other children here, small little Outer Ones I've birthed." She giggled. "Sometimes, Vampires across the Universe offer themselves to me, and they bless me with their incestuous seed. It is the source of these little children."
"Disgusting." I sighed. "Are you planning on building some sort of clan within the Outer Verse?"
"Well, something like that… The other Outer Ones here already had enormous ones, so I felt a bit bad being the only one left behind!" She laughed. "Oh? Are you done?"
"I'm done." I gave her the paper with the terms.
"Hm?! Isn't this way too greedy?! You little ant! Whoa are you trying to scam?!" She angrily said.
"…Fine, I'll increase your bonus by a ten percent if you behave and don't betray me. I'll write it down in the pact." I smiled.
"N-No betrayals?!" She was shocked. "Aw, come on!"
"Then I guess you don't want the bonus…" I nodded.
"Uugghh…! You'll pay for this! FINE! However, I'll add another condition, heheh!"
For an Outer One, she seemed very gullible. Perhaps because she was the youngest of them all, and an entity with little brains that only feed on destruction and bloodshed.
"What is it?" I asked.
"You will offer me the blood of your firstborn!" She smiled.
"Enough, what is the condition?" I asked her.
"SIGH… Can't take a single joke, huh?" The entity sighed, swirling her body around as if moving across the stars. "I want a cup filled with your blood every month. If you ever miss the day, the pact will be broken."
"Hoh…" I laughed a bit. "So that's it? I see…"
It seemed simple enough, but if I ever missed it by one day, it would all break apart and she would eat my soul…
It was smart on her side, but I had more authority over this anyways.
"No, I will offer you blood once a month… or wherever I remember, with no penalties."
"WHAT?!"
"Accept it or fuck off."
"F-Fine! Okay! URRRGGHHH!"
Her rage shook the stars as she seemed to be really getting angrier. I better not anger her anymore.
"Just for you, I'll increase it by fifteen instead of ten."
"Oh~? Ahhh~ I knew you were charmed by my beauty! You have such a soft spot for your primordial mother, my dear Asmodeus! Now come and give me a big kiss!"
"No thanks."
"It is the only way to get the contract done anyways, fufu~"
Her appearance quickly changed into the form of the beautiful and tall Vampiress, as she grabbed me against my will and kissed my lips.
"Come here~"
"Ugh…!"
The kiss was deep and incredibly cold. But each second made the pact grow stronger, until it finally was completed.
"Hmm~ Ahh, such a delicacy! Please, consider becoming my little love slave!"
"Shut up."
"Come on~ We could do so much together, you and me!"
"I know your tricks, enough is enough."
"TCH!"
Her form quickly changed once more into a titanic aberration, as the vision slowly dissipated, and I opened my eyes in front of the altar.
That kiss was between souls and not physical, therefore any disgusting feeling faded away, thankfully.
And well, the grimoire showed me the rest of the changes.
Ding!
