Chapter 469 The deal is concluded and the servant is summoned
Jin Gu did set up Gorgon, the goddess of warcraft, as an insurance to awaken Tiamat, but he did not regard the other party as a mere tool, but assisted the other party with all his heart.
So far, he has regarded Gorgon as his companion, and he also hopes that the Gorgon can always be his companion.
His real purpose is to awaken Tiamat, create new humans, and eliminate old humans; while Gorgon's purpose is revenge, she simply wants to eliminate all humans and destroy human nature;
Their goals are not actually in conflict.
For Jin Gu, the ideal situation is that Gorgon successfully completes his revenge plan, the old humans are completely eliminated, Merlin is also killed, and then the magic that made Tiamat sleep will naturally disappear.
Even then, the Gorgons could live with them in the new world recreated by Tiamat.
As for using Gorgon's death to awaken Tiamat, it was also the worst choice for Jin Gu, and it was a last resort.
After all, no matter how much he regarded the Gorgons as companions, his first mission was still to awaken Tiamat, their mother.
However, if we can save her life when Gorgon dies...
Various thoughts flashed through Jin Gu's mind, but in the end, he looked up at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said meaningfully:
"Although I don't know why you know this, but in this case, compared to the so-called deal, I think it is safer to kill you here directly. What do you think?"
"Are you worried that I will tell Chaldea about this?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka spread his hands and said:
"Actually, if I wanted to do this, I would have done it long ago, right?"
Jin Gu shook his head and said:
"I can't control your previous behavior, and I'm not interested in understanding it. I can only try my best to ensure that there will be no accidents in the future."
As he spoke, his right hand turned into a sharp blade of magical energy, but he did not launch an attack immediately, but continued:
"Unless you can give me a convincing reason."
Fujimaru Ritsuka had already expected this situation, so she quickly answered with a smile: "Because of confidence."
"I believe that the Chaldean Masters will succeed. Even if they still don't know the existence of Tiamat, even if they need to face Tiamat directly, they will be able to successfully repair this singularity, and finally defeat the Magic King and save the world. Humanity.”
"So for me, there is no need to play tricks in a place like this."
"...You mean, they can defeat Mother?"
Hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka's answer, Jin Gu unconsciously raised the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of mockery and sneer.
"This is really..."
ridiculous.
It's more than ridiculous, it's simply delusional, just based on those unfashionable three-legged cats...
Although Jin Gu wanted to laugh at the other party's speech, but looking at Fujimaru Ritsuka's determined expression hidden under the smile, his smile gradually faded away.
The other person's feelings are sincere and without any trace of falsehood. She really thought those Chaldean guys could defeat her mother.
"……snort."
So, Jin Gu finally just snorted lightly and said contemptuously: "Then let me wait and see."
Fujimaru Ritsuka responded with a smile:
"Of course."
All in all, trust, the prerequisite for reaching a deal, was temporarily established, and the tense situation just now disappeared, as if it had never existed.
After a short period of thinking, Jin Gu quickly agreed to the deal proposed by Fujimaru Ritsuka.
If he could really save Gorgon's life by then, he would be happy to see it happen, not to mention that all he had to pay was an insignificant strand of hair.
but--
"Please allow me to confirm first,"
Jin Gu cut off a strand of hair without hesitation, held it in his hand, and asked bluntly: "You are not planning to use it to put a curse on me, are you?"
In most mystical systems, hair has a very deep connection with the person, or represents a person's vitality, or sometimes even represents a person's soul and life. Therefore, there are many magic related to hair, which are to exert some kind of effect on someone through hair, and among this type of magic, the most common one is to perform curses.
Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled helplessly: "As I said, I don't plan to use any small tricks, and I'm not that boring."
Moreover, casting a curse on the god-level Jin Gu was a bit too high on her magic level.
But speaking of it, thanks to the gift of Gaia in the Conan world, she does seem to have the ability to cast curses now, and I don't know if it can have an effect on Jingu.
It seems useless, right?
Then, she shook off the distracting thoughts in her mind and explained with a smile:
"As for the reason, how should I put it... To put it simply, I just want to satisfy my personal collection habit."
"Collection addiction...?"
Jin Gu muttered this word with some confusion, and then seemed to think of something. He quietly moved away from Fujimaru Ritsuka, and said with disgust: "Tsk, a strange hobby."
"So, human beings are really... hopeless in every sense of the word..."
"Eh?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and his face suddenly became embarrassed after he reacted.
She's not talking about some weird hobby!
...Oh, forget it.
I'm so sorry, today is another day that brings disgrace to mankind.
However, looking at the soft green hair on her hands, Fujimaru Ritsuka once again showed a satisfied smile, and then waved goodbye to Jin Gu.
"Don't die, Jin Gu."
"Oh, you should say this to those people in Chaldea."
Not to be outdone, Jin Gu responded, watching Fujimaru Ritsuka's figure disappear from sight, he also turned around and left, preparing to return to the Blood Temple.
However, in the end, he still didn't figure out why the other party wanted to save Gorgon's life.
Is it simply used as a bargaining chip? He always felt that it was not that simple.
In addition, there was another thing that made him somewhat concerned: when the other party was talking to him or when he mentioned Gorgon, his attitude was very peaceful, and he did not seem to regard them as enemies.
"——Strange guy."
…
…
Leaving the territory occupied by the Goddess of Warcraft, Fujimaru Ritsuka fell on the top of a bare cliff and came to a relatively flat wasteland.
"Well, this is it."
After deciding on the location, Fujimaru Ritsuka took out a strand of green hair from Jingu and murmured: "I don't know if it will work...forget it, let's try it first and then decide."
So, she once again took out the familiar set of painting tools from [Official Treasure] and began to draw the summoning circle on the ground.
The hair she got from Jin Gu was the holy relic she prepared.
That's right, the collecting habit she mentioned was not some weird hair collecting habit, but a Servant's collecting habit.
The servants who appeared at the seventh singularity, whether they were originally friendly or hostile, and even the creation goddess Tiamat, have now become her Chaldean servants, but only a few a key figure——
Solid gold.
This is the person she is planning to summon this time.
Come on!
