The devil seems to be born with a kind of bewitching charm. The closer you get, the more you can feel the terrible attraction of wanting to be trapped in it.
This was just "The Sin of Vanity - Belial". Luo Jie couldn't imagine whether he could withstand the charm of "The Sin of Desire - Asmodeus" if it were to come in person.
"Well...can you give me some medicine first? I'm bleeding too much and my head is a little dizzy."
Luo Jie's words sounded a little timid, but in fact they were testing the character of "Vanity Belial".
"After tens of thousands of years, humans are still such a fragile race... Just do whatever you want."
Luo Jie took out the healing potion from the world of "Dicuo" that he had prepared in advance from his pocket, took off the cork and drank it in one gulp. The magic power of the potion quickly penetrated his weak body.
Perhaps because the devil's concept of time can easily last tens of thousands of years, "Vanity Belial" is also surprisingly patient. Even though he watched Luo Jie finish the medicine, he did not rush him, but quietly looked at the lights in the distance.
Bright city night view.
"Miss Bellier."
"Call me Demon King, you despicable human being."
"Okay, Miss Beryl."
"Vanity Belial" had a cold look in his eyes. He picked up Luo Jie's collar with his gauntlet and lifted his body with just one finger.
"Human, do you really think I won't kill you?"
Luo Jie responded with a meaningful smile. Sure enough, the scenery is better from this angle. Yalasso...
After a long time, the silver-haired demon sister snorted coldly and threw Luo Jie heavily to the ground.
"If you want to make a contract, hurry up."
Luo Jie knew this would be the result.
Demons are different from devils in that they are creatures that pay special attention to the spirit of contract. Just like no one will tear apart Party A before signing a contract. As long as there is a possibility of signing a contract, demons will basically not harm and summon them.
creature.
"Miss Belial, this is my first time... Could you please guide me and explain to me what kinds of contracts there are?"
"Vanity Belial" snorted again, acquiescing to Luo Jie's disrespectful name for her, and said in a calm tone: "Generally speaking, there are three types of contracts signed between humans and demons - borrowing contracts, employment contracts,
Wish contract. It’s very troublesome to explain. Don’t resist, I will directly pass the memory to you.”
The silver-haired demon sister stretched out her finger and lightly touched Luo Jie's forehead, and the corresponding knowledge automatically appeared in Luo Jie's brain.
The borrowing contract, as the name suggests, means that the devil himself does not appear, but only temporarily lends his power to the contractor when the contractor needs it.
The advantage of this kind of contract is that it is hidden, but it has certain requirements for the physical fitness of the contractor.
A mercenary contract means that the devil's body or avatar stays for a long time and acts as the contractor's bodyguard and thug. The contractor is only responsible for providing the price.
The advantage of this kind of contract is that it can borrow the devil's power to the greatest extent, but the disadvantage is that the proportion of payment will be higher.
By the way, the male protagonist "Ogata Osamu" and "Kisara" in "Contract Kiss" signed the most standard employment contract.
The last type of wish contract is also called a curse contract.
When the contractor faces a desperate situation or is extremely resentful, the entire price will be paid in one lump sum, and then the devil will execute it on his behalf.
Since this kind of self-destructive ultimate contract involves sacrificing souls, few people can do this cruel thing to themselves, so most of the contract forms are still the previous two.
In addition, even if a contract has been signed, the form of the contract can be changed midway. As long as the corresponding price is paid, the devil is as easy to talk to as all Party B.
"So - which contract do you want to choose?"
The sisterly voice of "Vanity Belial" made Luo Jie fall into deep thought for a long time.
The last one definitely doesn’t need to be considered, the first two have their own benefits.
"Miss Belial, can you tell me what your major sin power is?" Luo Jie asked cautiously.
The power of sin is a special ability unique to sin demons, and it is also the most fundamental power that distinguishes them from ordinary demons.
For example, the "Desire" power's "Charm of Creatures", another example is the "Gluttony" power's "Devouring All Things", and so on.
But Luo Jie never knew the power of "Vanity" - after all, he was a hidden figure outside of the Seven Deadly Sins.
"My power is called - hypocrisy."
…
A few minutes later.
Luo Jie was the only figure left in the empty wasteland. The tall silver-haired demon sister disappeared into the void together with the summoning arrays all over the ground.
But in Luo Jie's hand, there was a gorgeous sword with blue background and white lines.
【Vanity Demon Blade】
Type: magic sword
Quality:EX
Skill 1: Sinful Contract - When you activate the Demonic Sword at a price, you will temporarily gain demonic power.
Skill 2: False Illusion - Convert imagination into reality. It can only build energy, not matter. Its essence is simulation, so it can only be infinitely close to the simulation prototype, but cannot surpass the prototype.
Skill 3: Wrath of Betrayal - When the enemy target is a Contractor of the Seven Deadly Sins, the attack power and critical hit rate increase.
Skill 4: Blasphemous Reward - The payment can be delayed, up to 24 hours.
Introduction: The physical form of the contract of "Vanity Belial", the former leader of the Seven Deadly Sins of SIN, requires the sacrifice of one's own flesh and blood to exert its true power. (Story items cannot be taken out of the current fantasy world.)
Yes, he finally gave up the employment contract that best utilized the demon's combat effectiveness, and instead chose a borrowing contract that made it easier to conceal himself.
The reason is simple.
In the world of "Contract Kiss", the existence of demons is not allowed by all forces.
When the male protagonist "Ogata Osamu" brought "Kizara" from the sealed land to Belon City, what greeted them was the joint efforts of several major PMCs to eliminate them. After an extremely fierce battle, the PMC finally told the mayor that it could not bear it.
Due to the losses in the battle with those two people, "Ogata Shu" and "Kizara" made an exception to stay in Veron City.
If Luo Jie signs an employment contract with "Vanity Beria", he will have to go through what "Ogata Shu" has experienced all over again.
What's even more troublesome is that "Ogata Osamu" himself is now a member of the PMC. Once Veron City issues a bounty order on him, it means that he will have to directly confront the cutie "Kisara".
It would be fine if he wins, but if he loses, he may be sentenced to life imprisonment in an undersea prison.
With a thought, bright golden flames appeared on the blade, and with the swing, huge flame dragons were rolled up, and the weeds on the ground withered and burned under the high temperature.
The flames converged, the sword flashed, and the remaining wall standing in front was cut off laterally, and the collapsed masonry raised bursts of smoke.
Luo Jie took a deep breath and nodded slightly.
Sure enough, "Vanity Belial"'s great sin power "hypocrisy" has its limitations.
First of all, although it can theoretically simulate all energy-based skills, if you have never used the skill personally, the simulation effect will be basically fake, and it is only suitable for simulating skills you have already mastered.
Secondly, this power can only simulate independent skills. There is no way to simulate equipment skills like "Pseudo Mokobotemo" that require equipment support.
Finally, since it is the Sin Demon Sword, the "holy" attribute skills that conflict with it cannot be simulated.
Overall, the flaws are not concealed. The contract with "Vanity Belial" has at least allowed Luo Jie to regain 60 to 70% of his original combat power. Even against A-level demons, he should be able to fight.
Just when Luo Jie was about to take back the [Demon Blade of Vanity] and leave, a pink light spot suddenly appeared in the distant sky, and the devil's unique aura made the sword in his hand resonate like a response.
It's actually "Kizara"?
The entire contract process took less than a quarter of an hour. Was PMC's response so fast?
