The Death God felt wronged.
Having stayed in Hell for so many years, he had truly never seen a [Trainee Death God] more alive than Lance. If Lance were a [Death God] working in Hell, living for seven or eight hundred years, or even a thousand years, would be normal.
But the problem was that Lance wasn't. He was a human, and was it normal for a human to live for seven or eight hundred years, or even a thousand years?
It wasn't normal.
Not normal at all, okay? Unless Lance was a [False God].
A [False God] could live for over a thousand years, which would be normal.
If he wasn't a [False God], he could live for five or six hundred years at most. If he could eat a divine medicine when his lifespan was about to end, then extending his life by a hundred years would also be normal.
In any case, it was absolutely abnormal for Lance, as a human, to have lived for over a thousand years.
He had only ever heard of Hell's [Death Gods] outliving [Trainee Death Gods], but he had never heard of a [Trainee Death God] outliving Hell's [Death Gods].
He didn't want to become a disgrace in the Hell's [Death God] world.
In Hell, every time he thought of Lance, this [Trainee Death God], he would silently pray in his heart for Lance to die quickly, and then he could get a promotion and a raise, and become an official [Death God].
Squatting on the ground, Lance scratched his head with his dragon claw. The superior [Death God] in charge of contacting him was good in every way, except that he was too talkative.
And he was constantly hoping that he would die soon.
He had discovered the matter of hoping he would die soon a long time ago, because when he didn't apply for a [Vacation], this superior would occasionally issue some super difficult tasks. If he were really a human powerhouse, some of those tasks could have killed him five or six times.
Fortunately, he wasn't. Every time he completed a task, he would pretend to be seriously injured and dying, just to make this superior happy.
Later, he didn't know which nosy [Trainee Death God] reported him, saying that the blood on his body was all ketchup. After this superior found out, he was so angry that he waved his Death God Scythe and almost ran out of Hell.
If he had known that this guy was so good at complaining, he should have chosen a female [Death God] when looking for a superior.
"Is it a bit much to hope that such an excellent partner like me dies every day?"
"Am I hoping you die? I'm hoping to give you a promotion and a raise, hoping to make you a full-fledged employee, buddy."
"Then you have something to look forward to. Not long ago, I went to the Elf Kingdom and drank a vat of [Spring of Life]. I estimate I can live for another five or six hundred years."
"Stop it with the nonsense. Every time I ask you when you're going to die, you either say you were lucky and ate a few divine medicines, or you say you encountered a fortuitous encounter and a mysterious powerhouse poured hundreds of years of lifespan into you. Why don't you just say you're the legendary immortal?
Seriously, when are you going to die? If you can't die in a short period of time, I hope you can come to work. I've collected a lot of dangerous... ahem, I've collected a lot of bounty missions with extremely high rewards. After completing them, you can take the money and live a carefree life for a long time."
Death God Solomon could see that the long-lived Lance wouldn't die in a short period of time. There was no other way, he could only let him go to work. He hadn't been doing nothing in Hell for the past few hundred years.
He had taken on many dangerous bounty missions, all waiting for Lance, this Trainee Death God, to come to work, and then he could assign these missions to him, so that he could get a promotion and a raise.
"I don't have the mind to go to work for the time being. Hmm... I do have plans to resign. You're always hoping to give me a [Promotion and a Raise]... it makes me a little scared... You understand me... I'm a [Trainee Death God] with no ambition.
Working hard and then dying to go to Hell for a promotion and a raise is not for me. I still want to live a few more years."
"Really?" Death God Solomon was overjoyed, "Write it! Write it for me, write a resignation report for me right away. If you write it, I'll approve it immediately!"
If he couldn't get Lance, this Trainee Death God, to stay, it would also be fine if he wrote a resignation report and left. He could just look for a new [Trainee Death God]. He had encountered many good seedlings these years, and with a little training, they could become Hell's [Death God]'s [Agent] in the human world.
The salary he paid Lance was enough to support eight or nine! No! It was enough to support a dozen or twenty [Trainee Death Gods].
The reason he hadn't been promoted for so long was not only because he had been waiting for Lance, this excellent Trainee Death God, to replace him.
Another reason was that he issued the most salaries but trained the fewest Trainee Death Gods. Who did he give all his salary to? Lance!
Because of Lance, he didn't have money to train other Trainee Death Gods.
"Can't you just terminate the cooperation contract you signed with me?"
"You really don't plan to be a Trainee Death God anymore?"
Death God Solomon thought Lance was just saying it casually, but he didn't expect this guy was really not planning to be a Trainee Death God.
The job of Trainee Death God is pretty good. After death, you go to Hell and are put down to train for a period of time, and you have the opportunity to become a formal Death God.
An excellent Trainee Death God like Lance would directly become a Hell Death God after death.
Giving up the identity of Trainee Death God is a huge loss for Lance.
For him... he lost an excellent successor, but it's not a big problem. As long as he discovers and trains a few new excellent Trainee Death Gods, he can be promoted immediately and become a Tier Two Death God.
The benefits of a Tier Two Death God are much better than those of a Tier One Death God.
The obvious benefit is that the black Death God robe on his body will become a handsome and eye-catching black and red Death God robe.
The pitch-black Death God Scythe will also become a beautiful black and red Death God Scythe.
There is also a chance to travel to Heaven.
His contemporary Death Gods have all been promoted, but he hasn't been promoted because of Lance. Now that's great, Lance quit, and he should be promoted soon!
"We've been working together for so long, I'm still a little reluctant to see you suddenly quit. After all, in my heart, you are the most suitable Trainee Death God to take over my job."
Solomon felt that he still had to show his appreciation for Lance. Hey? That's not right, he has always appreciated Lance.
If he didn't appreciate him, would he be looking forward to his death?
He should show his reluctance towards Lance.
"I don't even know how to complain about your heartfelt appreciation. Let me confirm one thing with you, after a Trainee Death God resigns, can they summon Hell undead for free and unlimited times within three hundred years, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes, with your performance, it's no problem to summon some undead troop types from Hell. You also have ten chances to summon Undead Bone Dragons that are not from Dragon Island. Whether you can summon them depends on your ability.
Undead of the Bone Dragon level can refuse the summon of a Necromancer at any time if it doesn't want to be summoned, you should know this."
Lance nodded, he knew this.
"Hey, I originally wanted to give you a promotion and a raise this time, but I didn't expect it to turn into a termination of the contract. Forget it, after you die, I will still strongly recommend you to become a Hell Death God. Don't let me down, and hurry up and die of old age.
Wait, why are you raising a young dragon? You're not choosing to resign in order to become a Dragon Knight, are you? That's foolish, how much combat power can such a small young dragon have? The combat power of an Undead Bone Dragon is much higher than this young dragon."
"I plan to participate in the Knight of Light assessment at the Temple of Light."
"???"
"So, you want to become a Dragon Knight of Light at the Temple of Light before resigning?"
"Yes, the Temple of Light has good benefits."
