Chapter 521 Raphael’s Ambition
When Raphael said this, his face even showed visible anger at that moment. This expression was enough to prove that he was not lying, but In the next moment, the anger disappeared without a trace, and Raphael continued.
“But when I really saw the group of thieves, I suddenly realized how interesting this was. At that time, I didn’t know that Gotash was involved in this theft. My servants only told me that the person who stole the Hammer of Orps was just a white dragonborn, so I really didn’t expect..."
Raphael suddenly stopped, hehe. He laughed twice, and then suddenly said loudly.
"Enver Gotash! I didn't expect to see him there! I didn't expect that I, a former slave, would be so bold as to peek into his master's property! But what really surprised me was that It even shocked me to think that my former slave had transformed into the chosen one of the God of Tyranny! At that moment, Nohir, you know how surprised and delighted I was! ? ”
"Ha-hahaha! I really can't believe that there is such a coincidence in this world! Even with all the experience I have accumulated over the past millennium, I have never heard of any similar rumors. This is simply better than a beggar leaping out of nowhere. Becoming a king is even more outrageous, so at that moment, I suddenly felt a huge curiosity."
"This curiosity directly diluted my anger, and I couldn't help but ask him. , asking him about his experiences and stories over the years, and why he let that damn descendant of Baal steal my hammer. Because of this huge contrast, at that time I was even thinking, if he could tell me a suitable Reason, it is not impossible to give him the hammer temporarily."
"I made this promise to them, and Gotash agreed to my terms without thinking for too long. It has to be said that although Gotash, who has become the chosen one, and the evil thought next to him, who is also the chosen one, do have extraordinary power when combined, they are facing a big devil. Even the chosen ones wisely showed due respect when faced with pressure."
"They understand that they cannot bear the consequences of angering a big devil, because even if I am. If I die in this world now, I will be reborn in hell in the next moment."
At this point, Raphael suddenly turned his head and glanced at Nohir, and there was something hidden in this. The meaning is already obvious, that is, he feels that Nohill does not respect him enough, and this is indeed the case. Ever since he appeared, Nohill has not shown any respect for him.
And Raphael felt that the biggest reason why Nohill was like this was because Nohill didn't understand what it meant to be a big devil, and now, he had laid out the card that the big devil should have. Longing to see even a hint of other emotions from Nohir's face.
Whether it is fear or fear, respect or solemnity, the pride in Raphael’s heart longs for him to feel the proper emotion from Nohill, but Nohill is still the same A deadpan attitude.
This made him very unhappy and even slightly weakened his interest in speaking. However, this brief interaction had allowed Raphael to thoroughly understand Nohill’s character. He knew what kind of Nohill he was. A truly strong person who has an indestructible self-will, possesses a towering high belief, is difficult to be disturbed or affected by foreign objects or words, and has absolute confidence in his own strength.
He has deeply understood that when force is not dominant, it will be difficult to influence Nohir no matter what means he uses, so in order to achieve his goal, Raphael still forces himself to Unhappy, he pretended that nothing had happened and continued to speak his carefully prepared words.
In the following words, Raphael also clearly verified Nohill's guess. Although he replaced the astral prism with the Hell Magic Contract, he did not tell Nohill about Orpheus. No further information, except that they will use this to raise a powerful Githyanki army to exact vengeance on a man named Nohir Termariti. But this information was indeed enough to confirm his original thoughts, and after confirming this information, Nohill turned his attention to Raphael's next words.
"...Yes, that's what they told me. He said that the fundamental reason why they did all this is actually to take revenge on you, but this reason is more or less in my eyes It was boring, until I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have a little impression of the name Nohill."
"In view of the things you did in hell a few days ago, I quickly remembered it. According to your information, both the master and the servant know the same person. I have to say that this is really a wonderful coincidence. From a macro perspective, Hell, like Gotash, suffered that failure because of you. , at that time, I did become very interested in you because of these wonderful coincidences, and it was through that opportunity that I got to know you more deeply."
"At that time, I only knew that you overturned the feast of souls that Zariel promised to the devils, but I didn't know what earth-shattering actions you made after returning to the main material plane, so I asked Gotta again Why did they ask, what did Nohir do to him? And because of this question, I discovered something that made me ecstatic, but after knowing the whole story, I was very angry! "
The corners of Nohir's eyes twitched. He had already guessed what Raphael was going to say next.
"The crown of Karsus! My dear father, the brightest pearl in Mephisto's treasury! I told you before that when I learned that my father's treasury was stolen, I How angry I am, and the theft of the crown is what makes me most angry, because I have been expecting-"
Raphael suddenly stopped, and he seemed to realize that he was following this paragraph The words should not be spoken so directly. It was obvious that he was worried about these things, but after a short period of silence, Raphael chose to continue speaking.
“I’m sorry, I lost my temper. This matter has always been the deepest secret I have hidden in my heart, but in order to let us have a little trust in each other, I am still willing to tell you mine. This secret."
"The crown, the one you are holding now, was taken off the head of the Mastermind. That thing is one of the final relics left by the Nethalel Empire. , is also one of the personal belongings of the legendary great arcanist, Karsus. After that legendary stupid act happened, this crown has been stored in my father's treasure house, serving as a useless ornament. ”
“But I am different. I have never wanted this pearl to be covered in dust. I want to use it to realize my ambition.”
