The King did not start with the questions immediately and stared at Zatiel for a long time, but the Neo-Demon only responded with eyes devoid of any emotion.

After a couple of minutes, John took a deep breath to calm himself and spoke.

"The first question. Do you have any intention or desire of harming the Magi World's origin or its consciousness?"

That question was pretty easy for the Neo-Demon, and he did not even have to think before answering it. 

"I do not. I only awoke in this world by chance and did not have anything planned for it."

The moment John heard those words, he released a sigh and continued with his next question.

"Second question. Do you have any intention or desire of harming members of the Scientia Kingdom?"

Just like before, it was pretty easy for Zatiel to respond.

"I do not. The people of your kingdom follow the rule of not attacking unless provoked, so I don't see a scenario in which I would want to harm you."

A smile appeared on John's face, and the Neo-Demon saw pride in his eyes after he praised his people.

"Third and final question. Do you have any intention or desire of harming the Rank 9 Magus and Head of the Magi World, Isaac or his disciples Eve the Holy Mother, and Ivar the Flaless?" 

Zatiel showed some interest when he heard that question, and a better image of the leader of Magi World appeared in his mind. 

'Other than the Scientia Kingdom's people and his two disciples, Isaac doesn't care about the rest of the inhabitants of the Magi World. Even those who had become Beings of Law are not important in his eyes.'

In the Neo-Demon mind, the Rank 9 Magus was someone who would not care even if the billions of inhabitants of the Magi World died, as long as the people important to him were safe. 

Although that sounded cold, for a supreme overlord of the universe, the Head of the Magi World was remarkably gentle. Many Rank 9 life forms only see their people like cattle from where a useful tool, meaning a Rank 7 life form, could be born. 

'I guess we are similar in that aspect. We both protect our people and don't really care about the rest.'

"Ahem."

That cough awoke the Neo-Demon from his thoughts, and he saw how the King was starting to get nervous due to him not answering the last question. 

"Don't worry. I don't have any intention of harming Isaac or his two disciples."

After hearing those words, John relaxed and felt a great weight leaving his shoulders. 

"Excellent!. I can finally give you an official welcome to the Magi World. You and your people can live here as long as you want." The King had a smile on his face, and his eyes shined with excitement. 

Zatiel made a weird expression as he saw the behavior of the man in front of him. It appeared as if he was the one who passed the test and not the Neo-Demon.

However, he felt the genuineness in the man's happiness, so emotions returned to his eyes before speaking. 

"I guess you have something you want to discuss with me."

"Oh yes, but this is not the place. I don't dare to discuss my problems in the presence of my Forefather." The King gave a deep bow to the statue of Isaac before making a portal appear. 

"Could you please accompany me to my laboratory?" John's behavior was courteous but not submissive. Since he would be asking for help, the King showed respect. 

Zatiel was curious about what this man wanted, and after a moment, he nodded and went through the portal along with him.

The duo appeared in a large room, with all kinds of precious resources that would arouse desire in most Rank 6 life forms scattered on the ground. Runic diagrams along with magic formulas filled the walls and ceiling. It was clear to anyone that this was the place of a messy individual. 

The Neo-Demon began to inspect the room, and the King remained quiet by his side. 

After analyzing the runic diagrams and magic formulas, Zatiel's eyes widened, and surprise appeared on his face.

"So you are an Animax Soul Runemaster, and by the complexity of those diagrams, you should be able to create Rank 5 Animax Soul Runes."

"You were able to learn all that just by giving a glance at my work?" The excitement in John's eyes grew immensely, and he could not help but smile. He did not know how profound was Zatiel's knowledge about The Ultimate Rune Path, but the fact he could tell his level by just seeing the runic diagrams on the wall for less than thirty seconds told him a lot. 

'It would be weird if I could not tell how high someone's level was in a technique I created after seeing his runes.' Of course, Zatiel did not express those thoughts and only nodded.

The Ultimate Rune Path, which contained the knowledge needed to give runes a soul, was created by the Incarnation of Death and Destruction. He scattered it through the universe to use it freely in his next life, without no one questioning him from where he obtained such a divine technique. 

"I will be frank. I obtained my knowledge about The Ultimate Rune Path from the Forefather's library and not directly in my dreams like the first generation of Animax Soul Runemasters. Unfortunately, it is flawed since it comes from someone else's comprehension and not directly from the source. I have been able to fix some of the problems, but I still found it very difficult to advance past Rank 5 Animax Soul Runemaster. I can see that your theoretical knowledge is profound, so I was hoping you could help me."

Zatiel was not surprised about the problem John had in The Ultimate Rune Path. After all, he purposely made the teaching of this one to future generations hard. He showed the technique in people's dreams to explain why his runes had souls, not so that others could benefit from his work. 

The King did not wait for Zatiel to respond before continuing speaking.

"Of course, I don't expect you to help me for nothing." John waved his hand, and the next moment, the five-meter head of a crow appeared.

Although it did not have any particular characteristic at plain sight, Zateil recognized the creature immediately since he formed an incarnation in his Sun Domain based on it. 

The head belonged to an Underworld Flaw Crow, a creature with a Law Bloodline!. 

"I don't ask you to impart all your knowledge, only for you to answer my question to the best of your capabilities, and you can have it."

Zatiel did not hide his interest in the head. He had not been using the Nether Crow after reaching Rank 4 since the incarnation was too weak to be of help. The Undying Leviathan would have suffered the same destiny if he had not fused a Void Creature's soul and body in the Sun Domain. 

"Can I analyze it?"

"Of course, go ahead."

The Neo-Demon used his consciousness and Rebirth Eye to examine the head and opened the eyelids to see its eyes. 

He smiled when he saw that the eyes were in perfect conditions and how they still glowed with vitality and power. 

'It was a Rank 6 life form. There are still traces of energy and laws fused in the tissues, and the eyes that are essential organs of these creatures are functional. His blood has almost no trace of his bloodline left.'

"What occurred with the rest of the creature's body and bloodline?. I am willing to exchange it for knowledge if you have it." Although the bloodline was not useful for him, he could give it to another Neo-Demon.

"I had to destroy the rest of the body to defeat it since I could not harm the head. As for the bloodline, the creature burned it entirely during the last part of the battle when it realized its body would not survive."

Zateil believed the King of the Scientia Kingdom since that was the behavior most creatures with powerful bloodlines would have. They would rather destroy their bloodline than allowing others to have it. 

"Ok. I will help you in exchange for the head."
