Chapter 119 - Don’t Mess with Women, Especially Goddesses (2/2)
“All right. I understand why you want to make a deal with a demon like me so readily!” Roy was a little speechless. “You just want to use this deal to throw me the burden, right?”
Tia Dalma did not answer this question and only asked, “Then, do you accept this chip?”
“Of course I accept!” Roy nodded. Although he had not read the other contents of the Demon Bible in detail, his intuition told him that this thing was absolutely not ordinary for demons. It was enough to exchange for the seal token.
However, after putting away the scroll, Roy said to Tia Dalma, “I’ll bring this thing back to the Abyss, but I’ll be helping you by bringing it back, right?”
“What exactly do you want to say?” Tia Dalma asked.
“Cassandra!” Roy pointed at Cassandra, who was staring intently at the slave traders behind him. “I helped you once, so you have to help me too. Although she’s become a lich, I want you to promise me that you won’t destroy her!”
However, what Roy did not expect was that after hearing this request, Tia Dalma immediately nodded and agreed without even thinking. “Sure!”
“Oh? So straightforward?” Roy was a little surprised. He frowned and said, “Miss Calypso, I know you are temperamental, but I don’t want you to bring this personality into this transaction! You are a god, not a demon like me, so it’s not good to go back on your word!”
However, Tia Dalma snorted. “Don’t worry. I’m a sea goddess, and I protect the sea itself, not humans! Even if she is a lich, what does that have to do with me?!”
After hearing this, Roy finally understood. It seemed that he was wrong. Indeed, Tia Dalma had said that she did not want things of the Abyss to remain in this world, but Cassandra was not from the Abyss. Although she was born from Roy’s demon blood, she was still an undead creature.
To Tia Dalma, the addition of an undead creature in the sea would not affect her at all. As long as this undead creature did not offend her authority of the sea…Shaking his head, Roy took out the silver coin pendant that he had obtained from Jack Sparrow and handed it to Tia Dalma.
With the seal token in hand, Tia Dalma snorted coldly. “Jack Sparrow… As the successor of the Pirate Lord of the Caribbean Sea, he actually dared to lose such an important thing. I must punish him!”
“Oh?!” Roy asked with interest. “Dear Miss, how do you plan on punishing him? Believe me, I’ll definitely be happy to see it!”
Tia Dalma suddenly smiled charmingly and poked Roy’s demon wings with her finger. “What do you think of letting him be a pauper for the rest of his life? From now on, he’ll have no fate with money, and all the treasures he finds will be lost…”
Roy clapped his hands. “That’s great! It’s happily decided then!”
Although Tia Dalmon was now sealed in a mortal body, she could still use some power. When Tia Dalma said that, far away in Tortuga Port, Jack Sparrow, who was dead drunk in a stable, suddenly shuddered in his sleep and woke up. But after finding nothing wrong, he mumbled and fell asleep again. Not long after he fell asleep, a stablehand, who came to feed the horses, noticed him. This stablehand carefully approached the soundly sleeping Jack Sparrow and started touching all over him…
In the end, the stablehand stole the last two pound sterling banknotes that Jack Sparrow had exchanged with gold bars…
Perhaps he would never have imagined that after removing the curse of the gold of misfortune, he would still not be able to escape his unlucky fate…
