Chapter 12
Never heard from Try Guys but the whole drama is fun. Guy cheats on his wife...this make me think of LK, an Outer God who is malicious and chaotic evil who...loves his wife very much. Yes, him and Zaorva have an open marriage - if we are to put labels on smth status of beings above right or wrong- but he does love his wife.
To disclaimer: not comparing a real person's situation to a fictional character. I just like how...I created a being that is an evil outer god but...he loves his wife.
The grand warlock of this land was nothing if a man compulsed with greedy. He achieved a great status by pulling all the tricks, he made allies, he used blackmail and secure his position by doing what it must be done. At the end of the day, only one position is above the grand warlock...
A king.
The grand warlock knew how the king was favored by the gods, literally, and any sane soul would give up at this point...
Not the grand warlock.
"I can bask in glory if I call him" the Grand Warlock puts a circle made of salt and chant ancient words, near impossible to pronouce by his tongue. I shall call him and make a deal.
IT appears devoid of a physical form. Yet, IT has 2 eyes- one gold and the other red as blood, both look down on the puny human as any moon should- speaking with such eloquency no human could.
"Oh, you're the human who dares to summon this time" LK is nothing but a fan of dark humour. "How desperated you must be to ask for my help or how foolish you are to think it would be that easy?"
The grand warlock offers a deal. Power for himself and more souls for LK. The outer god hummed in contemplation.
"Not a bad deal, but...I want talk to you" LK's tentacles emerged from thin air and is mkving freely. "I see you have a habit of cheating...o e wofe, many, many lovers. Usually, I wouldn't care as you mortals are free to stick your genetalias wherever you wish...however, you had many lovers"
For a moment, as laughable as it is, the grand warlock thought LK was impressed by his conquests. Yes, this man bed many women in his life and was never faithful.
LK offers a smile. A smile full of teeths. "However, you never considered the possibility of your wife ...finding out?" Asked in a conversational tone.
The man rolls his eyes. "She is not very bright, a bit slow is me being generous. I marry her for political reasons"
"She was infatuated with you" LK informed mildy.
The man rolls his eyes. "That is her problem, not mine" he does vision in getting rid of her and having a better suited wife.
"It never occurs to you...she may have asked help to destroy you?" LK asked back now his tentacles aren't so free. They are holding each part of his body. "Truly, I don't care if you mortals are being faithful to each other....but she wanted revenge and guess what? My wife was there..."LK can bask on the desperation on this fool's face. "What I can say? She likes a good underdog and convince me to help her free of charges" LK doesn't look to upset about.
His smile is all teeths.
"And I can promise you...you will see what is a higher power" LK chuckles even if the man is screaming in horror.
