Chương 122: Gil DxD: Chapter 122

This was true, Sirzechs knew that Gilgamesh would never do something like this, his brief encounters with him showed him that. And also Sirzechs doubted that there was any devil capable of reincarnating Gilgamesh. Gilgamesh had fully mastered the power of the Heavenly Dragon of Domination, Ddraig and that already put him in a class of his own. And Sirzechs also felt the power of Gilgamesh when he looked into Gilgamesh's eyes, Sirzechs felt the power of the King of Heroes.

When Sirzechs looked at him he felt the magical power of Gilgamesh, it was like looking into a gigantic abyss that swallowed everything in front of him, it was surely one of the most terrifying experiences of his life. And because of this Sirzechs knew that it would not be possible to reincarnate him as a devil. Only a piece of mutant Queen could reincarnate him, but even Serafall and Falbium didn't have the power to do that.

So that left only him and Ajuka, but both of them already had their Queen pieces, Sirzechs' being his wife Grayfia, and Ajuka's being Falak, The Snake King of the Realm of the Dead. And so because of that Sirzechs had to resort to another option.

"And because of that, we are pleased to offer you to be one of the Magicians who make contract with us" Sirzechs said to Gilgamesh. Gilgamesh raised an eyebrow in doubt.

"Contract Magician?" asked Gilgamesh.

"Before you continue, let me ask, did you know how Magician and Devils work?"

"Not really... I just knew that they were supposed to be partners or things like that, but that's it." Gilgamesh replied"You got it right, that's what most people knew, but the nature of the contract that magicians make is not something so basic" Sirzechs corrected, "Instead, the nature of the contract is meant to help the magician and devil deepen their knowledge of magic""Additional knowledge? You mean founding a new branch of Magic or something?"

Gilgamesh asked and Sirzechs nodded"Yes, you could say such a thing, yes." Sirzechs confirmed, "As you knew, mages use calculations and formulas to use their power and create spells."

"As you can see, Gilgamesh-kun, instead of magic, which depends on formulas and calculations, demonic power like us. Instead, it depends on imagination. Demonic power can be shaped in almost any way, depending on the devil's own skill, but the price of using it is much higher than magic" Sirzechs explained to him.

"So it's like going from point 'A' to point 'C' without stopping at point 'B' along the way?" Gilgamesh asked and Sirzechs nodded again.

"Exactly" The Maou confirmed, "There are three basic reasons that magicians contract with devils. protection, to acquire items or techniques from the underworld, and for status." A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. In the instant Gilgamesh heard that his mind quickly understood what Sirzechs offered him and Sirzechs got a glimpse of it through his eyes.

"Yes, Gilgamesh-kun. I have not asked you to be my Pariate or servant, no. Such a thing will be a mockery to you" Sirzechs said firmly, "I offer you to stand by me, stand by a Maou. I offer you wealth, treasure and respect. The moment you become an O magician who makes contract with us, you will see yourself as someone equal to the Maou himself, equal to one of us, surpassing even my and the Serafall sisters here."

The offer Sirzechs made him was actually caught as a guard by Gilgamesh, inside he was really shocked. This offer was almost like asking to be a Ruler of the Underworld, someone like Sirzechs himself, for any Mage it would be like a blessing from Heaven... Or Hell perhaps seeing that it was Lucifer himself who gave the offer. And more about Lucifer not asking him to be his subordinate, but to be someone just like him. Someone who stands beside him and working together as equals, he was offered a Kingdom here.

"That's pretty amazing" said Gilgamesh, this was certainly something he hadn't imagined.

"I would imagine, but you are free to choose the one you wish to partner with, it could be me, Ajuka Belzeebub, Falbium Asmosdeus or Serafall here" He said as he gestured to Serafall, who smiled at her name mentioned.

"Gil-kun! Choose me! Pick me!" Serafall fidgeting in her chair while raising a hand like children in school who knew the answer to the test, "Together we will create a better world, a magical girl and a hero, together with our ice magic!" She stated as she smiled happily. Serafall really wanted to know the origin of Gilgamesh's ice magic, it would be absolutely amazing for her.

"Hmmm... Sounds quite the offer" Gilgamesh began his Sirzechs smiling, believing he may have sealed the deal with Gilgamesh, "However, I feel there is a but in here somewhere" Gilgamesh said as Sirzechs frowned.

"Ah, a thinker and not just a stupid brute. That's a nice change of pace. Yes, what Sirzechs forgot to say is that you have to answer us. It's not a big deal just when we have a mission for you or if you need to go somewhere, you can always inform Tiamat instead of going down to the underworld. Since she is a relative and works for me," Ajuka explained calmly. Gilgamesh considered for a few moments.

"It is a good offer, however I refuse" Gilgamesh said to them who stared at him seriously.

"It's not like I'm rude or anything, but one thing you should know I'm not on anyone's side, I'm on my side" Gilgamesh said as he stared at Maou firmly, "I didn't mean to be rude, but there is a time in the future when we might become enemies. I serve no one because I follow the path I have formed for myself" Gilgamesh said to them. They all became serious and silent.

"Then allow me to ask you something. Are you an enemy of the underworld?" asked Ajuka seriously.

"I am not your enemy, nor do I have any interest in that. I was irritated by what Rias tried to do to me. But if you don't do anything against me I won't either" said Gilgamesh calmly.

"Very well then, I knew that the look you threw me means you are serious. I will respect your decision and not pressure you." Sirzechs told him nonchalantly, honestly he never expected Gilgamesh to accept that in the first place, so he was not surprised, "However, I knew that if you change your mind you can talk to us." He told him and Gilgamesh nodded, "Well, I guess at the end of our meeting, do you have any questions or anything for me?"

"I have nothing" said Gilgamesh before standing up and waving for Tiamat to follow him, Gilgamesh turned on his back and activated his [Rinnegan] and used his [Space-Temporal Portal] ability to warp reality and create a portal right there to everyone's perplexity.

"See you later" said Gilgamesh before entering the portal and disappearing. All the Devil Kings stood looking at the place where the portal was.

"A space-time technique? Impressive" said Ajuka in surprise.

"Too bad he didn't accept it" said Serafall sadly.

"Don't worry, you can meet him later Serafall, after all you have a crush on him" said Ajuka as he teased her. Serafall shot her gaze at him with a flushed face.

"I don't have a crush on him" Serafall said quickly. It's not like he was a master at ice magic and was still extremely handsome and attractive. It certainly wasn't about that.
