Chapter 87 This Person Is Really Shameless!
When Skartoom was first summoned into the Northern Continent after 300 long years, he had expected to wreak havoc and demolish everything in its path.
The vengeance he vowed to take, and the humiliation that their abyssal demons had to face when they were banished into the netherworld.
He was prepared to complete the conquest that his ancestor had failed with the help of Batron.
Alas, all that was thrown out the window as he was now kneeling and pleading for mercy from a woman.
"P-P-Princess Qi Shan, please forgive this ignorant fool for offending you." Skartoom started bawling in tears, hoping that he could seek forgiveness.
Skartoom couldn't understand how this was possible and cursed himself for being blinded by power.
How could he, a lowly abyssal demon, have the nerve and guts to call the princess of the demon lord a vile woman?
Even if he had numerous lives to waste, there was no way he would ever disrespect the princess.
"Princess Qi Shan, this lowly demon is merely blinded because of his sudden emergence to the Northern Continent after 300 years. Please forgive me." He continued to plead for mercy.
Meanwhile, Qi Shan held an unamused expression as she placed her foot on his head.
Stomping heavily on Skartoom, she cursed, "Hmph, you are the first demon to ever spout such audacity in front of my face."
"I'm willing to do anything to redeem myself, Princess Qi Shan." Skartoom quickly replied.
"Damn, the shamelessness is oozing out from you, Skartoom." Jiang Ming laughed heartily as he stood up and glanced at him.
His expression was filled with disdain and disgust at Skartoom.
After all his demonic vibe and evil plan, he was now nothing more than a cowardly man, pleading for his life.
Even Jiang Ming felt embarrassed just by looking at this current scene.
Right when Jiang Ming was feeling proud of himself, Qi Shan suddenly turned around and smirked.
"Aren't you the same when I detained you back then?" She asked.
"..."
Jiang Ming was instantly stumped by that singular question from Qi Shan. To survive and prevent any more unnecessary death, he was forced to submit to her.
However, things are different now since he was in the upper hand.
"GLCS, detain Qi Shan right now." Jiang Ming commanded, utilizing the system for the first time.
"W-W-What are you doing?" Qi Shan asked in confusion.
Suddenly, she stumbled briefly and nearly fell down to the ground. Her strength was slowly diminishing and she began to panic.
"What is happening to me?" She asked, looking at her hand to check if there was something wrong with her.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ming curled his lips upward when the GLCS really worked.
'Holy crap, she's really being detained. Bless the system, bless my life.' Jiang Ming was filled with joy when he witnessed Qi Shan being rendered motionless.
"What did you do to me, Jiang Ming?" Qi Shan asked in an angry tone.
She might not be able to move, but she could still open her mouth to speak.
And there were only two people present, so she could easily determine her condition was done by Jiang Ming.
Skartoom does not have the capability nor ability to make her motionless, but Jiang Ming was different.
He was filled with a mysterious aura, and similar to her, he was unpredictable in his action and decision.
"Just a little experiment, Qi Shan. Nothing special." Jiang Ming giggled as he quickly undo the restriction on her.
As soon as the restriction came undone, Qi Shan regained her strength as she activated her movement technique.
In a flash, she reappeared in front of Jaing Ming as she clutched onto his collars.
"How could you restrict my movement like that?" She asked in disbelief.
"Heh, you act like you didn't restrict my movement in the past. Ahh, the sweet revenge is finally happening. My years of vengeance and suffering have now been fulfilled."
Afterward, Jiang Ming started laughing loudly like a maniac, shocking Qi Shan and Skartoom.
"You are hateful!" Qi Shan scoffed coldly and crossed her arms, moving away in the meantime.
Her act was the same as a little girl that got her candy stolen by a scoundrel.
And this scene alone had caused Skartoom to finally realize his situation.
'Princess Qi Shan is not the one I should beg…' He thought.
His eyes began to focus on Jiang Ming. If one looked closer, they could somehow see Skartoom was having sparkly eyes.
'The princess had never spared anyone from ever talking badly about her, yet not only did she not kill this man, but she also pouted like a little girl. Just who is he?' Skartoom wondered silently.
However, he wouldn't try to comprehend the situation at the moment because now was the time to beg for his life.
"Almighty sir, please forgive my audacity from previous and allow me to have a chance of redemption." Skartoom lowered its wings, indicating his submission.
As much as he wanted to seek revenge against the Northern Continent for what they did in the past, one must keep their life at the very minimum to succeed in it.
Therefore, as a Legion Commander Rank, he will bear all the suffering and humiliation now to achieve his goal.
Alas, Jiang Ming remained still and smirked at Skartoom.
"When you were supposed to be the so-called world boss type of monster, yet showed such embarrassing behavior, I will do you a favor." He said calmly, retrieving a sword from his inventory.
'W-Wait a minute, that's not how the script is supposed to play out!' Skartoom cried inwardly when he saw Jiang Ming start to release his killing intent.
"W-We can talk about this, sir…" Skartoom began to panic and raised his hand up, hoping to calm Jiang Ming.
"Talk?" Jiang Ming raised an eyebrow.
"What's there to talk about when you're going to die in a few minutes?"
'Holy shit! This person is really shameless! He's making use of his close connection with Princess Qi Shan,' Skartoom thought.
