It took me a while to process all the information that Park revealed about the Devil merchant Code, but once I understood it my mind was blown away. The knowledge possessed by the demons and other dark races was not just advanced but realms ahead of what the card apprentices possessed.
These guys created a living spell called Dark Will using a part of the dark realm’s will to help them invade other realms. However, because of its initial failures, they abandoned the spell but since the spell was a living spell it continued to work on its failure by itself and grew stronger until it found the reason behind its failure and was capable of entirely rewriting itself, morphing from Dark Will to Devil Merchant Code.
Devil Merchant Code was no longer a spell to help demons and other dark races invade other realms but a living spell that allowed a select few members of demons and other dark races to travel to other realms as demon/devil merchants and trade with the natives using its unique ability exchange following the terms agreed by it with the said realm’s will.
From my angle the demons and other dark races were GOAT, your creation turning against you, that’s the dream(nightmare) of every creator. This was the rite of passage for any creator to be deemed accomplished. These guys created two successful methods to achieve inter-realm travel granted these methods had their restrictions but they were enough for them to spread their myth across all the realms. Back on earth, I created the superhuman serum to help earthlings defeat a single viltronian but the superhumans submitted to the viltronian and hunted me down to please their new master. Every accomplished creator goes through this.
“Are you telling me that devil/ demons merchant are slaves of the devil merchant code?” I did not ask Park the obvious instead used the opportunity to direct the conversation toward the one thing I really wanted to know, whether becoming a demon merchant was worth it.
“What gave you that idea? Think of Devil merchant code as an online trading platform and demon/devil merchants as traders contracted by devil merchant code to find clients and conduct trades in various realms following the laws agreed upon by the Devil merchant code with the said realm. Devil/demon merchants are Devil merchant code’s employees, it is that simple,” Park said looking in Corey’s direction, that fool instead of trying to enter the ‘one with the world’ state to spiritually travel to the spiritual plane and comprehend the rules of the world’s will, had fallen asleep. Prompting Park to shout at her, “Corey, wake up!”
“…” Corey was in a deep sleep she did not even hear Park calling her. Seeing this Park looked at me impatiently and asked, “Any more questions? Without someone monitoring and guiding her that girl will be lazy, I am needed there.”
“Sure, one last question, Can the demon merchants leave the devil merchant code at will?” I asked
“Yes, the demon/devil merchants are free to leave the devil merchant code at their will. But I don’t think anyone will be foolish enough to give up on such a sweet gig,” Park let out a laugh thinking of the possibility of someone being foolish enough to leave the devil merchant code. But then realizing something she said, “Wyatt, don’t tell me you plan to become a demon merchant?”
“Why, is there a problem?” I was not surprised that Park finally figured out what I was trying to hide but that’s okay now I can openly ask her for her opinion on becoming a demon merchant.

I can understand that the benefits of becoming a demon merchant are very attractive, even I who spent nearly a century in the dark realm was not able to find three demon merchants who could recommend me as a demon merchant to the devil merchant code. So I advise you to give up on this foolish idea, the sooner the better. And focus your energy on something plausible,” Park spoke from experience.
Listening to Park it became clear to me that she had interpreted my series of questions about demon merchants as me taking interest in becoming a demon merchant, she had no idea that I had Belphegor’s recommendation quota. Now that was a relief, good for me, “I know that but I am just curious. So there are no downsides to being a demon merchant?”
“As far as I know there is only one downside to being a demon merchant, in the dark realm strong would capture demon merchants to get them to work for them. Because of this demon merchants would hide their identity, other than that there are no downsides to being a demon merchant as long as your actions don’t go against the devil merchant code,” Park bought the boy’s reason without thinking twice because back then when she first heard about devil merchant code and demon merchants, she too was plagued with curiosity and questions about being a demon merchant. So she did not find the boy’s curiosity and questions about the devil merchant code and being a demon merchant odd.
“I see, thank you for being patient and entertaining my curiosity,” learning from Park that there were no downsides to becoming a demon merchant, I could not wait to use the recommendation quota I won from Belphegor.
“No, I should be the one thanking you, this place is a paradise for me to practice my demonic blood arts,” Saying that Park flew next to sleeping Corey’s side and knocking on her head she said, “Wake up dummy.”
