Chapter 55: Converting Walter

“Blackie, are you there?”

Blackie’s head popped out from the wall. “Yes?”

“Can I summon an inferior demon here?”

“Of course.”

After all, it was Blackie’s territory. Although Chen Zhao was a frequent guest, he still had to respect Blackie.

Chen Zhao summoned Raz, who immediately bowed at him humbly.

“The honored living, thank you for summoning me. Is there anything I can help you with?”

“I need a hatching fruit and also some water from the Blood Sea.”

“Huh? The honored living, are you going to convert into a demon? Or perhaps converting someone else into a demon?”

“It’s my pet, not me. Is the conversion ritual very common?”

“In the past, such a conversion was unheard of, until three hundred years ago when a method to convert into hybrid demons appeared.”

Three hundred years ago? Did this particular Soulbringer spread the method to Hell?

“You also need some demon’s blood, which I’m willing to donate—oh right—I don’t think you need mine; you have a better choice.”

“A better choice? What’s the benefit of using better demon’s blood?”

“A higher success rate. At the same time, there will be a small chance of an unexpected effect.”

“What unexpected effect?”

“Awakening of special abilities.”

“Like the special abilities of demons?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, I got it. What’s the prices of these two things?”

“Ten years of demonic crystals for the hatching fruit, and one year for the Blood Sea water.”

“Can I give you perfect crystal powder?”

“Perfect crystal powder?” When Raz saw Chen Zhao take out a bag of perfect crystal powder, his face froze at once. “You… You… You ground a perfect crystal into powder?!”

“Yup.”

“God… Do you know what you’ve done? You’re wasting a treasure! Do you know how precious perfect crystals are in Hell? Only large demon lords and demon kings can enjoy those. You actually ground one into powder!”

It was not the first time Chen Zhao heard a demon complain about his action, but he was not too concerned.

A perfect crystal that had been ground into powder form would only help him earn more demonic crystals.

One must learn to give before one can gain.

“Can you sell me the remaining perfect crystal powder?”

“What are you going to give me in return? The spatial ring?”

“The honored human, that’s impossible. Although a perfect crystal is still very valuable after being ground, it cannot be compared to a full crystal.”

“But its value should still be quite high, or else you wouldn’t have asked me to sell it to you.”

“If you still have all the powder from the perfect crystal, I can of course trade it with the spatial ring, but you’ve already used a lot.”

“Fine… So what are you going to give me to exchange for the perfect crystal powder?”

“How about a stone of contamination? They have roughly the same value.”

“Stone of contamination? What’s its use?”

“It can make a human or a demon sick, and you can control it. The stone of contamination contains all the diseases in the human world and in Hell.” Raz took out a green stone.

“I’m a doctor. I don’t need this.”

“Precisely because you’re a doctor, you need it. You can make someone sick and then treat the person. That’s the fastest way for you to earn money.”

“It’s too troublesome. I might as well rob someone. Do you have anything else that’s useful?”

After thinking for a while, Raz said, “Spiritual vessel. Perhaps it will be useful for you.”

“Spiritual vessel?”

“Yes. The spiritual vessel can absorb the spiritual power of others and then inject it into a specific target.”

“What’s the use of the so-called spiritual power?”

“It can make a person more lively. For example, when you’re tired, you can restore your energy with just a bit of spiritual power.”

“Not useful at all…” Chen Zhao twitched his mouth. “How much does it cost?”

“One third of the perfect crystal powder.”

“Too expensive. I can give you at most a quarter.”

“Fine.”

Noticing Raz’s quick agreement, Chen Zhao felt that the price was too high.

Raz took out an hourglass and gave it to Chen Zhao.

“How do I use it?”

“Put it somewhere with a lot of people. It will be filled with spiritual power automatically.”

“Will it cause any harm to others?”

“Nope. Actually it’s not engulfing the spiritual power of others, but rather absorbing the spiritual power that’s being released by others. When you need it, just open the cover and drink some to restore your energy.”

“Do you have any other good stuff?”

Raz presented a few more items to Chen Zhao, none of which he found useful.

“Oh yeah. Do you still have substitution coins?”

“No. I only had one that time.”

“If you manage to get more of them, tell me.”

“Sure. If there’s nothing else, I’ll return to Hell first.”

“Bye.”

Chen Zhao walked out again and asked Beelzebub to donate some of his blood.

“Walter, come here.” Chen Zhao found Walter which was playing with the hellhound. Walter stuck its tongue out and ran towards Chen Zhao.

“Walter, you’re not going to live for much longer. Now, I’m going to convert you into a demon. I hope that you can understand it, as it can allow you to live longer. If you accept, bark once, and if you don’t, bark twice.”

Woof, woof!

“Great. You just accepted my offer twice.” Chen Zhao squatted down. “Drink all of this.”

Tilting its head, Walter stared at Chen Zhao. He could not understand what Chen Zhao was trying to say.

It could only understand some simple instructions and actions from humans.

Chen Zhao did the action of drinking. “Drink this. Drink.”

Looking at the colorful liquid in the bowl, Walter seemed to be somewhat reluctant.

Even Walter probably felt that it was some kind of dark cuisine.

“Little One, Little Two, Little Three, come and drink half of it.”

The three huge dog heads lowered and stuck their tongues out together. Immediately, the demonic medicine that Chen Zhao had spent much effort to make reduced by half.

“Stop… That’s too much.”

Roar…

The three heads all howled in delight. They liked the taste.

After all, the medicine had some perfect crystal powder in it.

Seeing the joy of Little One, Little Two and Little Three, Walter finally lowered its head and drank the demonic medicine.

The taste was somewhat weird but nice.

However, after taking a few mouthfuls, Walter seemed to feel tired. It took a few shaky steps and then fell beside Chen Zhao’s feet.

Woof.

Little One pushed Walter with his head but there was no response.

Chen Zhao checked Walter’s condition. It was still breathing and seemed to have just fallen asleep.

Nevertheless, Chen Zhao was unsure if the demonic medicine he had made was effective.
