I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 233: Raid dungeon (25)

Johnny narrowed his eyes to look at Tie Gang before asking, "Are you sure about this?"

It was as if he couldn't believe what Tie Gang was saying.

Tie Gang looked right back at him and said, "Isn't this what you wanted? Why are you so hesitant now?"

Johnny didn't know why he was acting this way either.

This should have been an opportunity for him, but he couldn't help feeling a bad feeling. It was almost as if he was being baited into a trap by something and he didn't like this feeling.

So there was a part of him that didn't want to agree to this.

But in the end, he had no choice but to agree.

It wasn't that he was ignoring his better judgement, it was because of the pressure that came from around him.

The gazes that the crowd gave him…even if he didn't want to do this, he had no choice but to accept Tie Gang's proposal. Otherwise, he would never be able to hold his head up high again.

So Johnny took a deep breath and said, "Alright, since you're willing to do this, then there's no reason for me to not go along with this. I just hope that you will not go back on this decision when the time comes."

Tie Gang just revealed a faint smile as he looked at Johnny and said, "I should say the same to you."

Johnny couldn't help knitting his brows again as the bad feeling inside of him became stronger, but he didn't back down.

He just turned to look at me who had been standing there silently this whole time.

I of course knew what they were talking about, so now it was my turn.

I took a step forward so that I was right in front of him and when I stood there, Johnny said, "I will expose you for the cheat and liar that you are. Don't think that you'll be able to get away with this."

I just gave a sigh and said, "You really should try listening to others, it will be much easier for you."

Johnny gave a snort before revealing a determined look.

It was as if he was trying to put on a face that said he wouldn't buckle no matter what I did.

I just gave another sigh before saying, "You feel dizzy."

As soon as my voice fell, Johnny's expression immediately changed.

That was because there was a strong wave of nausea that suddenly came over him.

He tried his best to keep himself stable, but this wave of nausea was even stronger than the one from before. He found that it was hard for him to remain standing on his feet, so after a bit of swaying, he fell down onto his knees.

When he fell like this, he knew what he had to do, but it was impossible for him to stand up again to show that he was fine. Every time that he tried, it just made the wave of nausea stronger and made it harder for him to do anything.

In the end, Johnny could only lay there on the ground and wait for the wave of nausea to pass.

As he laid there, everyone looked at him in shock and disbelief.

But there was nothing that they could do except accept this.

When the proof was this clear in front of them, there really wasn't anything for them to say.

So they had no choice but to believe what Tie Gang had said.

When the wave of nausea was over, Johnny slowly looked up at me with a strange look.

The look in his eyes really seemed unstable and I couldn't help taking a step back when I saw this.

It really seemed like he was about to do something that he couldn't take back.

But before he could, Tie Gang said in a loud voice, "Alright, is there anyone else who still has doubts?"

As his voice rang out, everyone slowly came back to their senses.

They all slowly turned their gaze away from Johnny, as if they were abandoning him.

When there was such a clear display of power, there was nothing that they could say in response. All they could do was pretend that nothing happened before or else they would suffer the consequences just like him.

Johnny looked around and saw everyone turning away from him.

Deep down, there was a rage that filled his chest, but there wasn't anything that he could do about this.

After all, if he were to explode now…there would be nothing to gain from it. Instead, all he would be doing is digging a deeper and deeper hole for himself.

So no matter what happened now, he had to endure until he could find a chance to stand up again.

Seeing that no one said a thing, Tie Gang continued by saying, "Since this matter has been settled, then let's discuss what will happen next." He turned to look at Johnny and said, "You will be removed from our raid group and will be placed in the camp as a guard along with your men."

When he heard this, he couldn't help looking up in shock even though he had wanted to keep his head low.

Johnny gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I was wrong, that doesn't mean that I should be punished to this extent."

Tie Gang just calmly looked at him and said, "Are you saying that you'll still be able to cooperate with him after all of this?"

Johnny gritted his teeth even more when he heard this, but he didn't answer.

Tie Gang gave a nod before saying, "As I thought, you wouldn't be able to. That is why you'll be confined to the camp for the rest of this expedition."

After a pause, Tie Gang added, "If you can't trust your allies to watch your back, then we will never be able to accomplish anything."

Johnny looked like he was about to destroy his teeth with how much he was gritting them, but he didn't look at Tie Gang.

Instead, he was glaring at me as if he had a grudge against me.

Though technically…he did.
