Chapter 422 The Lucky Sareth

Sareth was not stupid. After hearing what Cerberus said, his eyes rolled, and he immediately understood.

Cerberus said that its demon contract was in Mundus’s hands, and according to Sareth’s investigation, this possible demon king named Mundus seemed to have been sealed by Sparda. However, being sealed meant that he was not dead. In other words, Cerberus’s demon contract was still in effect, but Mundus could not give it any orders now. Thus, when Demon Lord Urizen appeared, Cerberus had to obey Urizen’s orders temporarily due to his strength.

It was only obedience, not allegiance. Perhaps in the eyes of Cerberus, Urizen was still inferior to Mundus… This led to Cerberus having its own ideas and actions despite being sent out by Urizen to investigate. “In other words, we’re not enemies?” Sareth probed. The three heads of Cerberus snorted and said disdainfully, “It’s too easy to kill a half-demon brat like you. But since you’re still useful, I don’t mind keeping you around for a while…” “Okay, then I’m coming down!” Sareth carefully stared at Cerberus and began to go down. Cerberus allowed him to land without attacking. Standing in front of Cerberus, Sareth was too short. He raised his head. “The seal has indeed loosened, but it’s still not easy to summon Brother Fat Tiger to this world. I don’t have any offerings…. Besides, I still have something very important to do now, so I can’t delay it. If you’re willing to wait until I’ve finished my business, find the offerings, and then summon Brother Fat Tiger…” “Hmph… How troublesome!” Cerberus paced around. “What are you going to do?” “Find someone!” Sareth said. “I’ll help you find them!” Cerberus said impatiently. “I can also prepare the offerings for you. Once you’re done, you have to summon that guy immediately!” Sareth’s eyes widened. There’s such a good thing?! To be honest, the conditions that Cerberus gave were beyond his imagination. He really could not understand what Cerberus was thinking. Could it be that deciding who the true king of hellhounds was so important? He had never seen the demons of other races have a situation like what Cerberus was brooding over…

If he could not understand, then there was no need to understand. How could Sareth reject such a good thing that came knocking on his door? He immediately said, “Okay, deal!”

In any case, he was already prepared to summon his foster father, Roy. If his foster father descended into this world, Fat Tiger would definitely come. This meant that he did not need any additional actions to reach an agreement with Cerberus. He was now worried about how to find Dante and the others. Wouldn’t it be better if he could use Cerberus to help?

A dog’s nose is very sensitive… “Sign a contract with me!” Cerberus said as a demon contract appeared out of thin air in front of Sareth. This was the first time Sareth had seen a real demon contract. He remembered Cassandra’s instructions, so he carefully looked over the terms of the contract. He found that Cerberus did not play any tricks on this contract. It just stipulated that after Cerberus fulfilled its promise, Sareth had to fulfill his promise and summon the ‘Brother Fat Tiger’ he mentioned from the Abyss.

Thus, Sareth signed his name readily. Then he saw the demon contract turn into two balls of light and merge into him and Cerberus. “Let’s go. Who are you looking for in the Qliphoth? Tell me, and I’ll help you find them!” Cerberus said. “Ah, I’m looking for Dante and his two companions, Lady and Trish,” Sareth replied. “…” Cerberus stopped and turned around, all three heads staring fiercely at him. “W-what’s wrong?” Sareth was puzzled. “Did you do it on purpose?!” Cerberus roared at him with magma dripping from its three heads. “You’re looking for the damn bloodline of that Sparda?! Why didn’t you say so before signing the contract?!” “But you didn’t ask me…” Sareth shrugged.

Cerberus was trembling with anger. If it had known that Sareth and Dante were on the same side, it would not have signed the contract no matter what. Now, it was actually helping to find the descendant of its enemy…

Moreover, Cerberus could not go against it because the power of the demon contract was restricting it. So after being angry for a long time, it could only resign to its fate, turn its head, and walk forward. “Damn little liar. I promise to help you find him, but after I find him, I’ll bite him to death immediately!”

Upon hearing this, Sareth could not help but scratch his head. There was nothing wrong with what Cerberus said. After all, the contract did not stipulate that Cerberus had to ensure Dante’s survival after finding him… But if that bastard Dante is still alive, with his strength, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to beat this big dog, right? Or would seeing this big dog bite Dante be very pleasant? While thinking about this, Sareth followed Cerberus. He actually wanted to ride on Cerberus’s back. After all, he used to ride Fat Tiger like this, but Fat Tiger was Fat Tiger, and Cerberus was Cerberus. If he really rode on it, Cerberus would probably bite him to death immediately, right? So he could only think about it… It was precisely because he was following behind Cerberus that he had the chance to look up and see Cerberus’s… abdomen!

Then, as though he had discovered a big secret, he exclaimed, “Ah!! You… So you’re a female hellhound!”

“Is there a problem?” Cerberus turned her head and bared her teeth.

“No… no problem!” Sareth smiled awkwardly and continued to walk behind Cerberus. Although he did not say anything else, his mind began to turn quickly. If I remember correctly, Brother Fat Tiger is… male! I’ve been in contact with Brother Fat Tiger for a long time, so his smell must have been lingering on my body. With Cerberus’s powerful sense of smell, she must have smelled Brother Fat Tiger’s scent from me. Moreover, it… or rather, she smelled Brother Fat

Tiger’s… gender? Woah, I knew that her goal wasn’t simple. Wanting to find out who the king of hellhounds sounded a little fake! Was her real goal to get me to introduce her to a ‘boyfriend’?? The word ‘boyfriend’ was a new term that Sareth had learned in the human world during this period of time, and it directly appeared in his mind at this moment. Although he did not really understand it, judging from the current situation, this word seemed to be the most appropriate… As Sareth frowned, his mind was wandering. Cerberus said that she hasn’t returned to the Abyss for two thousand years, and she’s so powerful. Those ordinary hellhounds in the Demon World probably won’t enter her eyes. In other words, she’s been lonely for two thousand years… Now that she has suddenly found a hellhound that might be stronger than her, she has to catch him! Hmm, I can understand…

What Sareth did not know was that his guess was almost right… If it were in the Abyss, the demons would welcome the ‘mating season’ every year at a fixed time so that they could reproduce. But demons like Cerberus, who came to this world more than two thousand years ago, had a problem reproducing. In this world’s Purgatory Space, which was the Demon World, there was no ‘purple moon’! Although after a long time, the demons of the Demon World had changed their habits, and even without the purple moon, they would still reproduce. But the problem was that the demons would try their best to find powerful partners to mate with, and Cerberus was the strongest among the hellhounds in the Demon World. If she wanted to find a mate of the same race to breed with, she could not find one at all… unless she was willing to compromise and make

do.

Therefore, it had been a long time since Cerberus had given birth to a descendant. She was indeed an elite high-rank demon, but she could not become immortal without becoming a demon lord. In other words, there was a limit to her lifespan. After more than two thousand years, she could vaguely sense her impending aging, so she was anxious and eager to find a mate to give birth to a descendant. This was the real reason why she made the decision to disobey Urizen’s orders after smelling the scent on Sareth and did not kill him… Her aforementioned master, Mundus, was only one of them…

Of course, there was a saying that went, ‘If you see through it, don’t say it’. Sareth did not even think about revealing his guess and exposing Cerberus’s intentions because he could not predict whether or not she would fly into a rage out of humiliation.

Cerberus was walking in front, and her three heads were lowered and sniffing nonstop. She was not talking nonsense when she said that she could help Sareth find Dante. Even without his clothes as a source of the smell, she could still smell the Sparda bloodline in him. This smell came from the blood, and she could still smell it without a reference. This was the true power of hellhounds—bloodlust tracking

As Cerberus sniffed, she suddenly stopped and sniffed carefully again. “Found it. That guy once appeared in this area. We can follow this direction.”

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go!” Sareth spread his flame wings and flew up to follow the running Cerberus…
