The Merchant Of The Devil

~ [Elizabeth Pov] ~

After I left Liam's little house, I went to my car, and sitting next to me was Isabella, my assistant.

" Where are we, young lady? " Isabella asked with an uncertain look.

" Let's go to my house, I want to talk to my father. " I spoke with a calm expression, unlike other people, I treated Isabella as my friend, after all, she had cared for me since I was 6 years old.

" Okay ... Miss, may I ask you something? " Asked Isabella with a hesitant expression.

" Speak. " I said in a calm voice.

" I do not know if you felt it, but this person, he had no energy, is she an ordinary human? " Asked Isabella in a nervous voice.

" Yes, he is an ordinary human, the only reason for this marriage, is to use it. " I said with a calm expression.

" Use it? How? " Asked Isabella with red cheeks.

" T-That's not it, God forbid. " Dad said we were going to get rid of the Golden family, but I still do not know how that human will help. "I said a small blush on my face.

With Isabella, I could get rid of my mask, I could act like a normal 17-year-old, something I could not do in front of others or even my own father.

Crossing the bridge, to go towards my house, we quickly arrived at a Mansion, the driver then parked the car, I and Isabella left, going towards the door, some of the guards opened the door.

Looking at the stairs that led to the second floor, I went upstairs and followed the only corridor that was in front of a golden door, dismissing Isabella, I went towards the golden door, and gave two beats.

" Come in. " A voice that radiated power came from within.

Taking a breath, I walked in, and faced a very handsome office, he had many books, a sofa and a table with two chairs, going toward one of the chairs, I bowed to my Father and sat in the chair.

" Then, Speak Elizabeth, what do you want? " My father asked, raising an eyebrow and putting on a dubious expression.

" I went to Liam's house just as you asked, now I want to know the reason why I have to marry an ordinary human. " I asked with a serious expression.

" That ... All right, you know that in three weeks is your birthday, right? " My father asked with a serious expression.

" Yes, of course, it's my birthday after all. " I said wryly.

" Okay, the reason to invite Liam in 3 weeks is to announce his marriage to him, to all 4 Great families. " my father said with a serious expression.

" What's this got to be? " I asked with a confused expression.

" You know how the Golden Family Heir likes you, he would not let Liam go, without first calling you to a duel. " my father said, raising his eyebrows and suggesting that I continue.

" You mean, he's going to call Liam for a duel, but this ... he would end up killing Liam. " I spoke with a confused expression, after all, Liam was the Warlord's son.

" That's right, and in the end, when the Warlord returns and finds that his only grandson was killed by the Golden Family, he will surely try to destroy the Golden Family, that would end in a war and with both sides Injured, I then I'll take advantage of that and I'll kill the Warlord and the Golden Family once and for all. " Father spoke with a cruel expression.

' That, even if I do not like this marriage, I do not want innocent lives to end up hurting, damn ... what I do. ' I thought with an urgent expression.

My father noticed my Expression said: " You can not get into this, do not forget that if we do not do this, you will be forced to marry Liam or the Golden Family. "

" I know that, but there's no other way? I put innocent lives into it, moreover, the life of Grandpa Alexander's grandson. " I said in a heavy voice. I was very fond of Grandpa Alexander, he was very kind and affectionate to me, he was also my first teacher.

Now stopping to think, I do not why Grandpa Alexander did not train Liam, is Liam, not his Bloodl.u.s.t? ... impossible, he is his grandson for sure, but this is strange, is it that he did not wake up any power then?

Returning to Liam, he was still sleeping on the bus, when the Bus Driver came and nudged Liam a few times.

" Wake up, boy ... this is not your way out? " The Driver asked with a calm expression.

" Hmm, where am I? " Asked Liam getting up and looking around, he then noticed the driver looking at him with a smile.

" So you finally woke up kid, this is your way out, is not it? " Asked the Driver.

" Hmm, yes, that's ... Thank you so much, Lord. " Liam said with a grateful expression to the Driver.

After getting up, Liam went to the door of the bus and left, looking at the street that despite being at night, was as clear as day, he thought.

' Was this a dream? ... no, my vision is much better, I also noticed many things I would not have noticed before. ' Liam thought to his hands, noting that they were bigger, and his arms stronger, his shirt was tight as if he had grown a little.

Liam also noticed something like an electric current in the space around him, and on the ground, he then thought that this was the Energy of the Heavens and the Earth, which the Devil spoke.

' Thinking about it, this is a lot like the Qi you have in Novels, right? ' Liam thought with an amused expression.

' If what the devil said was true, this world has much more to offer than a simple modern world. ' Liam thought, looking at some of the people who were still on the street, he was wondering if one of these people were from the Otherworld.

' This world is giant, there must be many people needing a Merchant, kukuku! ' Liam thought with a demonic laugh, it was not like he was evil, or thinking of evil, he thought only of the strength he could gain.
