"Do you mean that you want to help me now in exchange for my help in the future?"
Faced with the soft inquiry from the woman in black robe in front of him, [Iolum] nodded directly without any hesitation:
"That's right."
"Although it's a bit pretentious."
"But I think [Your Majesty Shar], you should need my power more at this time."
[Lady of Night—Shar], one of the [Creator Gods] of [Toril World].
The other [Creation God] is her sister - [Ms. Silver Moon - Su Lun].
The entire [World of Toril] was born precisely because of the power of the two of them.
There are even a lot of [gods] who became gods by picking up fragments of their power.
Even the [first-generation magic goddess—Misrine], who is a [powerful divine power], was born because of the power of both of them.
Therefore, in the entire [World of Toril], they undoubtedly have a very special status.
Even though currently due to the split of power, his strength is no longer at its peak, and he cannot be called the most powerful [god] in the [World of Toril].
But whether it is [Shar] or [Suren], they always have some strange methods and trump cards. They are the strongest in terms of self-protection. No matter what kind of storm they are, they have never really threatened them!
Not long ago, [Eolum] came to the [Netheril Empire] to look for the troubled [god] and wanted to follow the order to get close to him. It was because of fate that he found [Shar].
Under normal circumstances.
It's almost impossible for him to find someone who doesn't want to show up!
And, to be honest, even with the instruction of [Ms. Pain], I need to find any [god] to get close to me, but for the great god [Ms. Night], at the beginning, [Iolem] was from the bottom of my heart.
Rejected.
The other party is not only powerful but also has a high status!
He is also famous for his ruthless thinking!
Many times.
The other party has the title of [Goddess of Conspiracy], [Goddess of Trickery]...
[Iolum] I am very worried about whether my little wealth is enough for the other party, or if I am even more unlucky enough to be sold, I have to count the money for the other party...
However.
Reminiscent of the [Ms. Pain] whose thoughts are unclear and whose motives are even more incomprehensible, who doesn’t want the other person to be completely controlled.
After thinking about it.
After all, I chose a method similar to driving away wolves and devouring tigers. I wanted to find an existence with the same weight to balance the huge threat posed to myself...
I have to say, [Lady of the Night—Shar], this god looks very important.
[Iolum] seems to be a good balance goal!
He feels.
As long as you really get attached to it.
So, even if [Ms. Pain] really plans to do something big, she will have more or less a way out...
Didn't think about it.
Is there any possibility of all these developments and situations?
Are they all arranged by [Ms. Pain]?
In the eyes of [Iolum].
It is your own choice to come to your homeland [Netheril Empire] to search for traces of [Gods].
Whether or not to take refuge in [Shar] is a decision you make based on the situation.
But actually.
All these things need to be put with a question mark.
To the point where it simply needs to be denied.
What [Iolum] is thinking, the development and changes of things, whether [Shar] will agree or not...
Everything is determined by the thread in the hands of [Ms. Pain].
at the moment.
As one of the puppets on stage.
[Shar] looked at the [Grand Arcanist] who came to the door automatically.
Sensing the majestic power in the other party's body, he also fell into thinking.
In my early years.
She once hid behind the scenes and secretly paid attention to the [Netheril Empire].
It can be considered that he knows this guy [Iolum] quite well.
It's clear that this guy is truly a rare talent.
At least.
Just at the level of mortals, there are really very few people who can surpass each other.
Especially during this chaotic time.
The meaning of the other party also becomes more and more precious!
Even if the other party can withstand half of the [True God] in trouble, there is nothing wrong with it.
However, [Shar], on the other hand, was puzzled as to why the guy in front of her would seek refuge with her.
As far as she knows.
This is a truly ambitious guy.
Logically speaking.
There is no way you should succumb to others.
and.
Even if the other party really wants to take refuge in [God], he should take refuge in [Goddess of Magic] who is more suitable for his professional skills...
This kind of something not quite right made [Shar] feel a little hesitant.
'Is it possible that this guy... is trying to find an opportunity to stab me in the back?'
For a while.
[Shar], who was used to stabbing others in the back, thought of many possibilities.
She admitted that the other party was a rare talent.
Even she has to show respect to the other person.
But I can’t understand the other party’s goals or what the other party is trying to do…
But in the end, faced with so many possibilities, [Shar], whose horse boy was really a bit of a loser, finally chose to accept the other party's unexplained allegiance.
"Then, let's sign the contract."
Since [divine power] is restricted, it is impossible to directly recruit him as a slave and establish a stable [divine power connection].
In order to ensure the other party's basic loyalty, [Shar] chose a relatively popular contract.
Regarding this.
[Iolum] also had no objection.
The [Contract] was signed immediately with [Styx] as the [just party].
The content is roughly that [Iolum] needs to serve [Shar] for a period of time, and in return, he will receive corresponding compensation from [Shar] afterwards.
Including but not limited to exchanging enough merit for the opportunity to become the other party’s [god].
During this period, neither party can betray the other party or intentionally harm the other party.
Violators will be thrown into the [River Styx] and enjoy the supreme treatment of the [River Styx Bathhouse], that is, they will die on the spot.
Overall.
This is a very generous contract.
As a [powerful divine power] and the [god attribute] of [Shar], it is not difficult to become a [weak divine power].
For ordinary people, this is a golden position.
[Shar] also possesses a beggar's version of [Magic Network] - [Shadow Magic Network]. Although the effect is not comparable to the genuine [Magic Network], that thing is more suitable for [Spellcaster] after all, barely corresponding.
【Iolum】’s expertise will not affect his development.
Moreover, as a [god] who prefers the [evil camp], [Shar] will not express disgust at some of its more extreme methods.
Furthermore, the most important thing is that he is a ruthless [ancient god].
In [Iolum]’s opinion.
As long as you become the opponent's [god], if [Ms. Pain] comes to trouble you in the future, then [Ms. Night] should be able to protect you as your new boss with a blood-based alliance.
Therefore, based on the above, [Iolum] feels that this job is really good~
As for his employer, [Shar] saw that the other party didn't even hesitate and signed his contract directly.
My heart is full of confusion.
'Is it so simple...'
'What does He value...'
No matter how she imagined it, she would never guess that the other party valued her enough to be ruthless...
This situation has already touched the blind spot of [Shar]'s thinking.
