Chapter 118 Descendant of the t.i.tans

The pirates who came together to escort the slaves also disembarked from the s.h.i.+p behind Tia Dalma. They were trembling in fear, but when they looked at the deserted beach, they could not help but ask in disbelief, “Is Demon Osiris really on this island?”

“Of course he’s here. My divination won’t go wrong!” Tia Dalma pointed to the distant mountain and. “Look, isn’t that black ice and snow? Even without me, you would have found this place in the future!”

“Witch, it’s not that we don’t believe you!” a bearded pirate said. “But are you really sure that we can get through this in one piece? Why don’t we leave these guys on the beach and leave now?”

Tia Dalma looked at the pirate and smiled, revealing her black teeth. “Of course, you can leave, but… are you really willing to give up on the gold?”

Upon hearing this, the pirates hesitated.

That’s right. Although many pirates felt that the demon might not necessarily hurt this group escorting the murderers to him, who dared to guarantee such a thing?

No one dared to take this risk, and the timid were all terrified. The reason why these pirates dared to partic.i.p.ate in the escort task was not only because they were braver, but also because they were stimulated by the demon gold. Jack Sparrow’s experience had already spread among the pirates. They believed that perhaps since they partic.i.p.ated in the escort and offered the murderers to the demon, the demon might give them a chance to play the demon’s game like Jack Sparrow.

In fact, they were not confident in the a.s.surance of the witch Tia Dalma (not many people knew her true ident.i.ty at this moment), but their greed still surpa.s.sed their fear and prompted them to follow…

ΠΟΙ

Humans died for wealth, and birds died for food. This was the mentality of these people.

Therefore, when they heard Tia Dalma mention the word gold, they endured their fear of the demon and tried their best to wait on the beach.

The caught slave traders were already crying their hearts out. They wailed and begged the pirates to let them go. But what they received in return from the nervous pirates who burst with anger was being whipped, and they became covered in blood.

What was funny was that the leather whips in the pirates’ hands were all found on the slave-trading s.h.i.+p. These slave traders often used these whips to whip the pitiful slaves. Perhaps they never dreamed that one day these whips would be whipping them… Listening to the miserable screams of the slave traders, Tia Dalma was expressionless. She knew very well that humans were the cruelest to their own kind! They invented bows and blades in order to hunt other animals, but they invented bullets and firearms in order to kill their own kind… From this point of view, humans were very similar to demons.

“He’s here!” Tia Dalma suddenly said while the pirates were whipping the slave traders.

The pirates quickly restrained themselves. They took out the gags that they had prepared beforehand and stuffed them into the mouths of the slave traders who were still screaming. They were afraid that their cries would make Demon Osiris unhappy.

They raised their heads and looked at the distant mountain peak. Then they found a giant bird-like shadow flying in the sky and coming toward them.

There was a commotion among the pirates, and they began to retreat. As Roy flew closer, they saw Roy’s appearance clearly. Although many of the pirates present had heard about Demon Osiris, this was the first time they saw Roy. When they saw Roy’s slightly curved demon horns and the huge demon wings on his back, their fear reached its peak!

If Roy activated the Halo of Fear, all the pirates here would become crazy from fear! After all, there was a limit to human fear. Once the threshold was exceeded, nerves would break down.

The only thing the pirates were glad about was that Demon Osiris did not attack them when he appeared.

Roy floated in midair with his arms crossed, looking at the pirates below and the leader, Tia Dalma. After a while, he landed in front of her.

He was more than two meters tall and had strong muscles, making him look tall and burly. Tia Dalma and the pirates could only look up at him despite Roy standing on the ground. This domineering look made the pirates fear Roy even more.

“Miss Calypso, I didn’t expect you to come personally! It’s an honor!” Roy grinned at Tia Dalma, revealing his sharp teeth.

To be honest, this smile was really friendly. But in the eyes of the pirates, it was different. The demon’s smile scared everyone!

“It seems that you already know who I am!” Tia Dalma rubbed her fingers and said expressionlessly, “But call me Tia Dalma… Demon Osiris, is this your true name?”

“If I say yes, will you believe me?” Roy asked.

“I don’t know!” Tia Dalma looked directly into Roy’s eyes. “During my long years, I’ve seen a few demons from the Abyss. Some of them were cunning, but there were also some who were trustworthy. I wonder which one you are?”

“Hmm…” Roy thought for a while. “Perhaps the latter!”

“Is that so?” Tia Dalma laughed. “I think it should be the former. Otherwise, why would you deceive Jack Sparrow to get that very important thing?”

“No, no, no. How can you say that I deceived him?” Roy shook his finger. “Jack Sparrow left it willingly!”

“All right, whatever you say. Anyway, I never had much hope for these pirates!” Upon saying this, Tia Dalma’s face sank. “But since I’ve already appeared here, shouldn’t you return that thing to me?” However, Roy avoided this question for the time being and instead asked, “Miss Tia Dalma, can I ask a question?”

“What question?”

“If you can remove the seal, what will you do to the pirates who sealed you?” Roy asked.

“Hmph!” Tia Dalma snorted coldly, but then gritted her teeth and said, “I will bury them in the darkest depths of the sea!”

Although Davy Jones was the mastermind behind Calypso being sealed, it would be a lie if she said that she did not hate his accomplices, the Nine Pirate Lords. It was a great humiliation for a G.o.d to be sealed by mortals!

Hearing this, Roy grinned again. “Then, esteemed lady, let’s make a deal? I’ll help you take back all the seal tokens and lift your seal, how about that?”

However, Tia Dalma did not even think about it and immediately refused. “No! I will never let you do that!”

“Why? Don’t you want to return to your divine body?” Roy asked.

“But I won’t place this hope on a demon from another world!” Tia Dalma said firmly. “Let alone all the seal tokens, even the one you’re holding now, I have to get back!” “…” Roy was silent for a while. “What if I say

no?”

“In that case, Demon Osiris…” Tia Dalma said solemnly, “I won’t care which demon king’s subordinate you are, I will kill you! Don’t doubt that I can do this. I am a descendant of the t.i.tans. In the ancient inheritance of the t.i.tans, there is a way to kill demons, and even your soul won’t be able to return to the Abyss!”

“Oh? You can do this even though you’re sealed in a mortal body?” Roy asked with interest.

“Do you want to take a gamble?” Tia Dalma stared at Roy, unwilling to be outdone.

After a while, Roy suddenly grinned and waved his hand. “It was just a joke. I don’t want to fight against a G.o.d now. That won’t do me any good!”

After hearing these words that eased the atmosphere, Tia Dalma’s imposing manner weakened a little.

But at this moment, Roy suddenly said, “Speaking of which, are you trying to lure me into killing this mortal body of yours? Does killing your mortal body cause you to break free from the seal?”

“Ridiculous!” Tia Dalma refuted expressionlessly. He could not tell what she was thinking, but under Roy’s observation, Tia Dalma’s entire body had tensed up just now, which was a very nervous reaction.

Sure enough! Roy had long found it strange. Why did the Pirate Lords still allow her mortal body to live after sealing the sea G.o.ddess Calypso into a mortal body? Logically speaking, the pirates should have already killed this mortal body. Would it not be better to complete the feat of killing the G.o.d once and for all?

Now that Roy saw Tia Dalma’s reaction, he realized that killing her might result in two disastrous consequences. The first was that the Calypso in her body would break free from the seal and appear. The second was that Calypso would really die and cause the entire ocean to lose control. After all, she was a sea G.o.ddess.

G.o.ds were not so easy to kill, so Roy reckoned that the former was more likely.

In that case, Roy could not do anything to Tia Dalma. If he really released Calypso’s true body, Roy would be in trouble.

A descendant of the t.i.tans… Indeed, in some worlds, the t.i.tans were called G.o.ds. Perhaps they did not have the authority of G.o.ds, but just their power alone was rather formidable.

“All right. To be honest, the seal token isn’t very useful to me!” Roy said. “I can give it back to you, but it depends on what you can give me!”

“Didn’t I already bring the people you are looking for?” Tia Dalma pointed at the slave traders.

Roy glanced sideways at the slave traders, whose mouths were stuffed with rags and socks, and they immediately s.h.i.+vered. When Roy was talking to Tia Dalma, everyone was quite far away due to fear, so they did not hear what the two of them said clearly. However, when Roy looked over, the slave traders immediately knew that their lives were about to come to an end…

Roy retracted his gaze and shook his head. “These people were brought here by the pirates, not you! Don’t say you did it. Show me your sincerity!” Tia Dalma stared at Roy for a long time before finally giving in. She took out a scroll from under her robe. This scroll was rolled up and tied with a string. The moment she took the scroll out, Roy immediately sensed a rich Abyss aura on it.

Tia Dalma threw the scroll to Roy. Roy took it, immediately untied the string, and opened the scroll.

This scroll seemed extremely old. But what was strange was that the text inside was still brand new. On the scroll, the words in the demon language were imprinted as though they had been burned onto it!

Among the content written on it, there was a rather large t.i.tle at the beginning. Roy immediately tried to read it. “De… Demon Bible… Chapter Six?”
