Chapter 282 Powerlessness
“This feeling.”
Nohir closed his eyes and carefully felt the weird feeling just now. At the moment when he signed the contract, he noticed something An inexplicable thing was being exerted on his body. It was hard to describe the feeling, but to put it bluntly, it was as if there was a thin net covering his whole body.
This net is very thin. At the moment when the contract was signed, Nohir clearly felt its existence, but now, he can't detect the net anyway.
However, although he cannot detect it again, Nohir knows that the net has not disappeared. It will always exist and cover it until the contract reaches the time limit, or until one of the two dies. Nohill is extremely convinced of this for himself and Gagos.
"Oh? Did you feel it?"
"What?"
Nohir opened his eyes and looked at the shield.
"Have you felt the mana effect of that contract? Do you feel that there is a chain... No, this contract has very little restraint on you, and your feeling should be lighter, but that's it. That’s why I’m so surprised.”
“As the leading party in the contract, that is, the person with sovereignty, it should be difficult for you to realize that the contract binds you, but you. I still noticed..., it’s interesting, your perception is very strong.”
Gargas said with some pretense, but Nohir didn't buy his account. He saw through Gargas' thoughts at a glance, and the crown also captured his purpose.
This guy still wants to negotiate with him. The reason why he talks nonsense is just to show that he is well-informed, so that he can have a certain say in the subsequent negotiations, but Nohir has achieved his main goal. He no longer wants or needs to talk nonsense with this shield.
Now he has no worries about the negative consequences of not giving face to this devil, because the additional conditions he added even include money that can order Gargas to shut up at any time.
At this time, Nohir had the absolute initiative, and just when Nohir wanted to exercise the rights given to him by the hell contract and shut up Gargoth directly, what was in this devil's mind Some news that surfaced attracted his attention at this time.
‘Wait a minute, this guy wants it, so that’s it, let’s solve it once and for all. ’
Nohir suppressed his impatience and turned his attention to the shield again.
“No matter what you want to do when you say these words, I advise you to say it as soon as possible. Gargas, I don’t have that much time to play these word games with you now, so when you run out My patience even angers me and allows me to exercise my power to shut you up for 50 years. You'd better say it straight."
Nohill's straightforward words. Gargas was silent for a moment. People often feel a certain amount of uneasiness after their own characteristics are seen through by the enemy, and thus make some wrong judgments. That's why Gargas said those words before. He was very good at it before. This trick, but now it seems that this trick failed.
“…I’m really impatient, okay, okay, I’ll tell the truth. In fact, you should be able to guess what I want to say. After all, there is only one thing I long for from beginning to end. That's freedom."
"Are you kidding me? Do you think I will want to release you after I know your true identity?" "Oh, friend, don't let you. The prejudice has affected our relationship. Maybe I did deceive you before and concealed my true identity from you, but other than that, I have never done anything to harm you.”
"That's just because I was on guard enough and you didn't find the opportunity to do anything bad. Come on, Gargas, don't use this level of talking skills. Use it to fool children. , if you really think that I will believe your nonsense."
"...Well, it seems that the emotional card won't work on you, then let's get down to something practical. I admit that we have done it before. There is indeed no basis for mutual trust, but it is different now. Under the constraints of the hell contract, we already have a basis for mutual trust."
"As the reviser of the contract, you should be very clear about that. Under the constraints of this contract, I will not be able to pose the slightest threat to you for 50 years. It is a full 50 years. What a long binding this is. The effectiveness of this contract is enough to last for you. Leave hell, so what if you release me from the shield during this period?"
"If you think this is not safe enough, I can sign an additional contract with you? , this contract can be regarded as an additional contract to the previous contract. I can swear to you in this contract to provide you with the best help I can in the next 50 years.”
"You must know that it is not easy to get the help of a devil, let alone a devil as powerful as me, and this friendship and help will last for 50 years. This is 50 years of loyalty. ! I can even help you pull the entire city out of hell! Believe me, as long as you can break my seal, I am absolutely capable of doing this! It was sincere, and even from the perspective of this devil, Nohir had shown obvious heartbeat, which made him feel happy.
If Nohir can really agree to this deal, it will be a sure profit for Gargas. 50 years may be a long time for these mortals, but for him For a devil of this level, it's just a snap of the fingers.
For Gargoth, even if he is loyal to Nohir for 50 years, it is not a bad idea. As long as he can really break away from this damn shield, it will be all worth it. , he will never lose money.
"How about this? How about this condition? I have used my greatest sincerity. As long as you agree to do your best to find a way to break the seal for me within the 50 years stipulated in the contract, I will I swear allegiance to you within the time specified in the contract.”
Gargas looked at Nohir who seemed to be deep in thought and said this. There was actually a hidden flaw in his words, that is, his allegiance would only last for the 50 years limited by the contract.
But strictly speaking, this is not actually a loophole. At most, this condition can only make Nohir pay more attention to lifting the shield seal.
After all, if Nohir delays breaking the seal until very late, or if he cannot break his seal at all, then Nohir's control time over Gargas will be shortened, but to be honest, This restriction is very weak, but at this time he is just a shield.
The hidden lord who once had a great reputation can now do almost nothing and can only be controlled by others. This hidden motivation method is all Gargas can do.
He had had enough of this powerlessness.
