They were putting their commander's words into action. The army made the first move, and a fierce battle began. No one here should be weak. After all, everyone here plans to enter the unknown.

The army began to blitz through with magic. Much mana was poured, and those nearby were in the crossfire.

"Charles! We should run."

"Why? It's getting interesting. I won't be harmed."

Unless someone here could cancel my abilities, I was unkillable. And I meant it literally. Physical death, death relating to souls, and erasure were useless. I had ignored the words of both Greg and Joanne.

"See the might of our army? I dare anyone else to come forward."

As arrogant as the commander was, he had obliterated the small group. Using hundreds of men to fire off mana was something almost no one here could stop. Even I wouldn't be able to stop it alone with my powers. I may have come unscathed, but I couldn't destroy it.

"It's a shame, the fight's already over."

After the quick blitz, the battle was already over. I was disappointed that it ended this early, but with no one left, it couldn't be helped that the army had stopped.

"Kid, I must say, you're pretty insane."

"Insane? That level of attack wouldn't even harm me. I'm much stronger than I look."

"Fucking monsters."

Both Joanne and Greg could tell that I wasn't lying. Hearing what anyone was saying wasn't hard in a tight space like this.

"It looks like we haven't spread our influence enough."

Sheesh, I wasn't speaking loudly, but the commander could hear my words. Well, it looked like I was the next target.

"Do you two want to stay? I promise you two won't be harmed."

"That's a bold statement, kid, but I like your attitude."

"I have decided to travel with you. So leaving will give me a bad taste."

These two had decided to stay with me. How brave! Not anyone could do this, but this was part of a higher level of people.

The old man took a greatsword while Joanne took out a staff. We would make a great party if we were in an RPG game.

"Men! Once more! Do your thing!"

"I take it you have a plan for this!"

"I do."

Why should I worry about an attack that won't harm me? Now that I think about it, the gateway to hell is near. Does that mean my power would increase if I used it here?

"Brat! It's time to do something now!"

"I already have it taken care of."

Once I began summoning a creature, almost everyone froze in fear. Without a doubt, this was the most powerful being that I had summoned yet.

"Zahahahaha!!! I'm finally free! Who is my contractor?"

"Me!!!"

I shouted it out before anyone else would. The demon looked at me and gave me a burst of laughter out of joy.

"It would seem that it's true. I'm Zangrif, a great being from hell. As my contractor, what is your wish? Kill those armor-suited people. They're a nuisance."

"Very well."

"Men! What are you doing!!! Attack!"

Zangrif's appearance had disturbed everyone in the room. His appearance slowed down the magic as they were distracted by the power coming out of him.

"It's been a long time since I feasted on a fresh mortal."

Zangrif was fifteen feet tall. He had darkish red skin and crab claws for his six arms. While he had human legs, it wasn't as creepy as I thought.

The demon had made his first move. His claws had snapped all the soldier's body in half, and seeing him devour them was a sight to behold.

"Can you make the scene less disturbing?"

Joanne and the rest felt disgusted by the sight of someone being eaten. What made it even worse was the crude way of doing so. The demon was splattered in blood, and almost everyone being attacked panicked.

"I mean, what's the point of asking him now? He's pretty close to finishing it."

Zangrif had easily defeated the army. None could harm the demon, even if they fired hundreds of magic spells.

Demons from hell were at a higher level than the mobs I summoned. They were more intelligent and more potent in magic and physical strength. There were some with special abilities like mine.

"Contractor. I would like to offer you a deal."

Zangrif returned with a bloody mess. Once he returned, he wanted to make a deal. I wonder what he wanted.

"Sure. Go ahead and ask."

"Sign a contract with me. Hell is a boring place. I want to see the world more. You can summon me any time for any foe you will face."

So Zangrif is a free bodyguard. There is no reason not to accept him as long as he can't harm anyone.

"In the condition of not hurting anyone, I tell you not to. I have no reason to object."

"Prefect. Sign this, and our contract will be fulfilled."

Using my blood, I cut my whole finger and signed it. The wound had instantly regenerated, which had grown my finger back.

"Oh! Contractor, our deal is now done. It's a shame that I have to leave. Summon me whenever you can."

And just like that, Zangrif had left. The location of the fissure had calmed down, with everyone staring at me. In just one move, I became a celebrity, well, in a notorious way.

"Charles. Is your finger doing well???"

"It's fine."

I showed her my hand, which was unharmed.

"Kid. You're now the center of attention. I got to say. You're a monster as much as I thought you were."

Greg wasn't even scared when he said that. Instead, he laughed like it was a good thing. What a weirdo. I guess it wasn't wrong to say that the longer you live, the stranger you become. Anyways we were in two hours within Destiny Road and the place had around gotten lively.
