"So you have never done anything like that before." Chaoyang felt both true expectations and a little sad. There was no companion in his world, and he was still a separate individual. "All your cognition comes from I awakened from the evil demon, but I never had the chance to verify whether it was correct."
"I'm not evil--" Elordi was about to retort when she saw Chaoyang reaching his hand into the flour pocket and immediately changed her mouth, "I do have no experience, but it doesn't mean that other days... I don't have any companions either."
Chaoyang's heart was slightly shocked.
Other companions?
Isn't this guy alone?
This is really amazing news!
His thoughts turned sharply. Originally, controlling Elorti was just an optional option, but the necessity of this option suddenly increased a lot. After all, he could not stay in another world forever. He had to return to Earth, if there was a time when there was a If the natural enemy targets him, his situation will be quite dangerous.
An angel in a cooperative state may dispel the hostility of other companions.
After a moment of silence, Chaoyang turned to look at Dann and Judy, "The next step will be to the final stage of the ceremony. Since we need to rely on the power of our Lord, please avoid it for the time being."
"Well, can't I pay homage to your god..." Judy seemed a little reluctant.
Dann was very good at looking at the eyes, "This is the work of God's envoy. Which church will let outsiders pay homage to God at will? Let's not cause trouble for our benefactors."
After the two left the room, Elorti couldn't help but show a sarcastic look, "God? What do you think of yourself? Only those guys with unspeakable purposes will shape themselves into a very noble way, You are indeed..."
"What is it?"
Elordi stared at the flour bag beside him, but in the end he couldn't say it.
"If I were you, when I came to a new world, my wording would definitely be more cautious." Chaoyang took out a dagger from his arms and slowly approached the girl, "because there are some existences in this world that are no different from God, You know nothing about them, but I have touched them briefly."
The latter's expression changed, but he quickly bit his lips and closed his eyes hard.
She was obviously threatened by a flour bag, but she did not say a word of begging for mercy at this time.
"I wonder if you have ever thought about a question, why are you still alive? The moment you activated your ability, you were at the end of your strength, and the result of using up your power is death... At this point, you and I are no different."
Elorti couldn't help but be stunned.
At this moment, the dagger fell down in the morning sun and cut off the rope that tied her right hand.
Realizing the moment she regained her freedom, she couldn't help asking, "...Why?"
"Because I saved you." Chaoyang said calmly, "I fed you a drop of blood of your will."
Elordi's expression was frozen.
"I don't know if this works, but it seems that it works - so I can understand why the angels were chasing the demons and chopping them, because this was the only way to bathe the most demon blood. In a sense, You are no different from a bunch of vampires, they are just succumbing to their own desires!”
"It's not like this... Eliminating the demons is to fight evil..."
"Including killing your savior?" Chaoyang sneered.
Elorti was speechless.
He took advantage of the situation to pursue, "By the way, let me tell you a secret that is not a secret. In the past, the demons signed a contract with the goal of devouring the soul, but that was obviously not a long-term benefit, and the risk was also very high. So the awakened man later optimized the contract process.
, changed to collecting the power of the wishes - that is, the installment form of the soul. Although the profits at one time have decreased, the cost and risks have also been reduced accordingly. Haven’t your companions told you about this series of changes?"
"Finites, installments?"
"In order to survive, we must naturally keep pace with the times." Chaoyang turned his hand, and the dagger in his hand instantly turned into a4 paper. "It's time to talk about repayment. May I ask in the simple values of Miss Angel,
Should people who save their lives also give back something to appear fair?”
"I never pray for rewards when I save people." When talking about this, the girl seemed to have ignited some courage. She looked straight at Chaoyang and said word by word, "Don't even think of using words to deceive me."
"Don't you look at it first and then talk?"
"No need! The code of the ancestors tells us that any contract with the demon is a trap. You can kill me, but don't want to enslave my soul!" She paused and added, "The installment payment is not good either!
”
"No, I'm too lazy to kill you, because I'm different from you, I won't kill people's lives without any loss. At most I'll just drive you out of this world." Chaoyang pretended to take back the contract, "Of course, the first time I can treat it as you
A mistake made by ignorance, but I won’t be so polite next time.”
"You really... want to let me go?" Elordi was still a little confused.
"What's wrong? You can't do anything anyway. Even if you see someone who really needs help, all you can do is look from afar, and the only thing you finally taste is the bitterness of failure."
"What are you talking about?" she frowned.
"You know very well what I'm talking about." Chaoyang smiled, "Without the devil's will, you will achieve nothing in the end - because the kindness without power can only exist on your lips, right?"
Elorti's eyes suddenly became like spikes.
Chaoyang knew that he guessed it right.
This is the source of the dark emotions in her heart.
In fact, this flaw is not difficult to detect. As for her age of sixteen, she has participated in too many organizations and activities. This only shows that she has not stayed in any organization for a long time. She keeps trying, but keeps
Failed just because she has no "power".
In an era when the demons are about to die out, how good can angels be? If they lose their source of their will, people like Elordi are just ordinary people. It is okay for an ordinary person to help the old lady cross the road, but a little bit
When you encounter a little tricky thing, you will find that you have very limited things to do.
And this kind of setback will become more and more common as you age.
"Now you finally have a chance to change, but unfortunately you gave up on it because of your short-sightedness." Chaoyang stood up and said in a regretful tone, "What does it matter if a person who is useless is let go?"
"…wait later." Seeing that he was about to leave, Elordi couldn't help but speak, "Do you want to continue to provide me with your wishes?"
Chaoyang did not speak, but bounced the contract in his hand.
"Okay, you can bring it..."
"Do you usually speak to your life-savior like this? I think you should be more polite."
Elorti hesitated for a moment and finally repeated, "Please show me."
Chaoyang accepted the contract when he was about to come and handed it to her again, "I think the most important thing about the contract is fairness - considering your concerns, I will not receive any rewards such as soul or voluntary power, on the contrary, I will pay
Give you the blood of the power of vows for you to use in another world. You should know better than me what the power given by talent awakening represents.”
This time, Elorti carefully read the entire contract, "And what I want to do... is to protect your safety? To act in line with the identity you gave me, and to help you when necessary? It's ridiculous!
…”
"But its essence is in the termination part, isn't it?" Chaoyang said without hesitation, "What you worry about is that you cannot stop me from doing evil or becoming my accomplice, so I specifically stated the conditions for escaping the contract. Once I do it
The matter turns to evil, no longer does good deeds, and the contract will be automatically terminated."
“…Who will decide?”
"Of course he is the contractor." Chaoyang chuckled, "That is you - Miss Elordi. But there is one thing you have to pay attention to, the contract cannot be determined by words. Once it is signed, it is the most stable guarantee in the world.
You immediately repent, call me evil verbally, and the contract will not be interrupted - because it measures your heart."
“If what you are going to do has nothing to do with good deeds, I can ignore it?”
"good."
Elordi was silent for a while, "What if I attack you if I didn't terminate the contract?"
"I will lose my soul and the moment you act." Chaoyang spreads his hands, "Believe me, the power of restraint is unparalleled. In fact, you can't not only attack me, nor can you cooperate with others to murder me. Similarly, I cannot harm you,
The constraints are just as effective for me.”
Seeing her eyes flashing, Chaoyang knew that success was just a short stop, "I don't need you to believe me, just like I don't trust angels, contract is the only reliable guarantee. Think from another perspective, even if I can't save me
You, you haven't come here, can't we form such a mutually beneficial relationship? It is precisely because both of us have profits that cooperation can transcend identity and exist."
Chaoyang lowered his voice, tempting her softly, "You need strength, right? On the earth, although you have saved your life with all kinds of good deeds, it is only so. The lack of willpower limits you to show your strength, and in real
In the face of evil, you who cannot use your innate abilities have no chance of winning."
This time, Elordi was silent for a long time.
Through the subtle changes in expression on her face, Chaoyang could feel her inner struggle, just as the haze under the sun became more obvious.
After a long time, she asked slowly, "How much is the willpower?"
"Of course, it is calculated based on the weight of my vow. The more people I help, the more vow I gain."
“I can’t stay here all the time.”
After hearing this, Chaoyang knew that the matter had been done, "You don't have to worry about time. Even if you stay in another world for three or four days, you will only go there for a few minutes... After that, the situation this time may be quite special.
”
"What's the meaning?"
"Nothing, this time it was just an accident. I will try my best to minimize the impact of jet lag in the future." He skipped the topic directly, "What's more, if you don't follow me, how can you judge whether what I'm doing is evil?
What? Don't forget that this is the key to the establishment of the contract."
Elordi stared at him for a long time, and finally took a deep breath, "If you cross the border, I will never let you go easily."
"Hmm," Chaoyang handed her the pen, "I look forward to that day."
