Master Of None

Chapter 730: 730. Interviewing Demons

”For now I am going to gather information and speak to the demons that wake up. I know some will have systems but apparently, Pride targeted demons that did not have systems and forced them in to his image. I donʼt know what skills came with the pride title but they were bad. Very bad.

Once I know where things stand I can give you more but as of now, there are demons without systems that received a quest to free the demons from corruption and such.” Walker didnʼt mince words and gave it to Markus flat.

”Youʼre right. The king will want to know. I will run there personally.” Markus was not going to send a messenger with such important information. This could shake the kingdom, let alone the world.

”And Markus, please drink a mana potion and health potion. You look like you need them.” Markus smirked a little and rushed off. Walker was sure that he would be back soon.

As if the demon was waiting for the right time, Walker heard one of them start to moan and come back to consciousness. They were all placed evenly apart on their own soft mats after being healed or currently being healed. Some had not been lucky enough to remain without injury from the battle and it had not been healed after Pridesʼ skill had worn off.

Others were normal demons without injury and just a very large amount of exhaustion. Walker made sure to remain calm and kneeled next to the demon that was waking up. ”Hello? Can you hear me? You are safe and somewhere you can heal. Just take your time waking up.

If you have questions ask away.”

The man reacted to Walker and started to open his eyes and blink. Before Walker could hear what the man could say he had started to wildly look around and grasp at his skin. ”You are safe. Pride is gone and so is his skill. You are in another kingdom and have been healed. You.

Are. Safe.” Walker put emphasis on the words to make the demon hear and focus on him.

When the demon man looked at Walkerʼs eyes and saw they did not waiver he knew that there was really truth to Walkerʼs words. ”Really? Heʼs dead? That general is dead?” The demon seemed to still question it but continued to mumble to himself. ”Of course heʼs dead. Iʼm free.

I could only be free if he died. He would never let me go.” The demon still patted his skin just in case. He still feared he would lose control and morph back in to Pridesʼ image again.

Walker watched the complex emotions through the eyes of the demon. The man was more or less the same as any human walker had seen. The only difference was that the man has small horns and his eyes were red. Whatever kind of demon he was couldnʼt be determined and it was just a lesser demon species.

”This might seem an odd question, but do you have a system?” This was where Walker was going with every demon that he would speak to. He needed to make sure that this was real.

”Actually...no. Thatʼs why I was brought to general Pride. He said he would make me useful. It was horrible.” Walker saw the demon man start to tremble before forcing himself to focus up. Knowing that Pride was dead now must be a major blessing to those under Prideʼs influence. ”But now, Iʼm just usele- whatʼs this thing?” The man tried to poke something in the air that Walker couldnʼt see.

”Itʼs like that countdown clock before I turned thirty. It says that I need to free the demon race from corruption? It says this is a chain quest! I have a quest! How? Wait, who cares?

I have a quest!” The man was questioning and lost but excited and confused all at the same time.

”Thank you, that helps a lot. My name is Walker. I hold the true hero title and a few others. What do you need to do for the first quest?” Walker was sure that this was a very big deal and his thirst for information was taking control.

”Huh? Do? It says…” The demon started to read and try to comprehend. ”Umm, it says to follow my dream and learn the basics I have always wanted to know.” This was very confusing and made sense to Walker why the demon would be confused as well.

Before Walker could pry and little more the man who has gazed in to the distance spoke again, ”When I was a kid I wanted to be like the other mages that used magic to make the earth shake. One passed through my village and built houses with a clap of their hands. It was amazing.” The face of the demon showed wide eyes surprise, ”It changed.

The quest changed and now it says to learn the basics of an earth mage. Does that mean I can be an earth mage?”

”You will need to pursue the quest to find out. Take some time to think and relax. I have others to speak to but I have a feeling they will join you in the amazement soon.” Walker saw other demons start to awaken as they were healed. He began interviewing one after another and in the end found that out of the two hundred in the army, all had been without systems. They all had the same quests.

The thirty eight that had survived Pridesʼ control were being given another chance by the world. It was something none of them expected. Walker also noticed that they all had system countdowns end at different years of their lives because demons had varying age ranges based on the species of demon blood they had within them.

There was so much information that Walker began to wonder what the world was pushing them towards. The only thing that was clear was that they were all being pointed at the demon lord and the corruption that it caused to its own people.
