Chapter 24 Contract

Hearing the girl in front of him speak, Karl subconsciously stood up and took his hands out of her chest.

There was no feeling of obstruction at all, and the two bodies separated smoothly.

After taking out his hands, Karl saw that the two holes in the girl's chest that had been vacated by his hands were quickly filled with black mucus, just like when the monster repaired his body before!

Soon her body was intact.

Under the dawn light outside the window, Karl and the girl sitting on the ground looked at each other.

For a moment, the small room fell into silence. The two people just looked at each other, and no one took the lead to break the peaceful atmosphere.

At the same time Carl could still feel it.

As their two bodies separated, there seemed to be something invisible and intangible that connected them together.

After standing like this for a while, the girl sitting on the ground couldn't hold it any longer.

"Can...can you give me some clothes to wear first?"

The girl's face turned red, she lowered her head and asked shyly.

Yes, this time only the body was generated, and the girl is now sitting on the ground naked!

Karl subconsciously wanted to agree to her request, but before he could say anything, he remembered how this guy appeared in front of him.

So the unspoken word "good" turned into a question.

"What the hell are you?"

Upon hearing Karl's question, the girl's body trembled as if she were afraid, and then she spoke carefully in English.

"I...I don't know either."

Karl really hopes that he can trust this child. After all, who doesn't like beautiful girls?

But what had just happened had not yet receded from his mind, so Karl put on a fierce look, and at the same time the [Decapitating Blade] appeared in his hand.

"You'd better tell me honestly, what did that stone slab do to you?"

"I don't……"

Before the girl could finish her defense, she was interrupted by Karl.

"If I were so easy to deceive, I would have thrown the slate on the ground just now."

Karl looked at her expressionlessly and issued an ultimatum.

"I don't have much time, and I can't afford to waste it."

After hearing Karl's words, the expression on the girl's face instantly changed from a panicked and slightly shy look to a look of helplessness, and she rolled her eyes in an inelegant manner on her delicate face.

"Tsk."

"Say it quickly."

Seeing the girl's reaction, Karl knew that he had guessed correctly. This guy was the black smoke that came out of his body before.

"Are you the consciousness of that book? Or are you the product of some ritual?"

Because he knew nothing about the guy in front of him, Karl started asking casually.

"Oh!"

The girl first smiled discriminatingly, and then spoke.

"Don't associate me with that kind of dirty stuff. I just needed to recover, so I temporarily attached myself to that broken book."

"If I were really the book spirit on that thing, I should have wiped it out long ago with a knife that had the power of dreams."

As she spoke, she seemed to think of something again, and continued with lingering fear.

"And if it's ritually generated, no."

She immediately shook her head mid-sentence, denying something.

"Except for an existence like me, if anything encounters the situation just now, there is no other possibility but to be treated obediently."

Is the slate so powerful?

Calli thought to himself and then asked.

"Do you know what the slate is used for?"

As soon as the words came out, the girl on the ground looked at Karl with the same look as she looked at the giant panda in the zoo.

"You really don't know what that slate is?"

"Then how did you use it against me."

Then the girl looked at the [Decapitating Blade] in Karl's hand, and her eyes became more curious.

"Speaking of which, you can't use this thing. What kind of monster are you?"

"Answer me first, that stone slab!"

Karl didn't want to follow the girl's words, so he reiterated his question.

"What else could it be, an emerald slate."

"Emerald Slate?"

It was a term he had never heard of before, just like the so-called [Dream Power] and [Decapitating Blade], Karl had no impression of this thing at all.

The girl also clearly saw that Karl was ignorant, so she explained to him.

"You don't know the details. In short, this is a top-notch divine artifact. It records truth and wisdom. It is also the origin of your human alchemy."

From the girl's simple description, Karl clearly understood that this stone slab was a very powerful artifact.

"Then what did it do to you?"

Karl asked insistently.

"I really don't understand how a layman like you can activate it."

The girl whispered to herself, and then said.

"Just now it decided that I was attached to you as a subdued spirit, and then it planned to force us to sign a master-servant contract, but I resisted."

"Does that mean the contract failed?"

"Half success, half failure."

The girl continued.

"I used my last strength to seal it. As long as I don't break the seal, the contract will connect us in a semi-finished state, unable to complete the final step."

Karl had reservations about the girl's statement.

"So what is the effect of this contract now?"

"It originally made me your slave, but now it just forcibly binds me to you, and it has no use other than that."

Without any hesitation, the girl answered decisively.

"Guess whether I believe it or not."

Karl continued to look at her indifferently.

"Maybe... you believe it a little bit?"

Regarding Karl's reaction, the girl answered with a guilty look.

"so……"

"No, no, no...listen to me." This time it was the girl's turn to interrupt Karl.

"I don't have any ill intentions towards you now. As long as you cut off this contract, I will leave immediately. I can find anyone possessed on the street and everyone can go their own way without interfering with each other. Is that okay?"

Karl tried to analyze the girl's proposal in his mind.

First of all, this guy's purpose is to cut off our previous contract.

Judging from her previous performance, she is definitely no match for her in battle, so it is certain that this guy cannot hurt herself now.

And the so-called "cannot leave his side" is not necessarily true. There may be other reasons why the girl needs to stay around him.

Anyway, it’s okay to test it out.

With this thought, Karl spoke.

"The reason you are so anxious to terminate the contract is because as long as something happens to me, it won't be easy for you, right?"

Seeing Karl, who was still thinking, say this abruptly, the girl smiled coquettishly.

"What are you thinking about..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw Karl holding up a dagger and stabbing her.

Because the two people were very close, the girl immediately jumped up and hugged Karl's right hand.

"You are so young, don't let your imagination run wild!"

Looking at the girl who was hanging her entire weight on his arm, Karl twitched the corner of his mouth and asked.

"You should know that I'm testing you, right? Why are you still so excited?"

"Because I can't afford to gamble. Most mortals have brain problems!"

"So as long as I die, you will be buried with me, right?"
