Chapter 107: Ask and Go Double! (4)
Thewas over Chi-Woo saw the witch off and came down from the castle walls When he arrived back ho for him: Ru Amuh, Ru Hiana, Zelit, Allen Leonard, Eshnunna, and Hawa They were all staying awake, waiting for the results
“You are here!” Zelit especially had been waiting impatiently and dashed forward as soon as Chi-Woo cahed Hearing this, everyone’s hearts dropped, but they tried not to show it on their faces
“No, what is there for you to be sorry about? They were the ones who had the upper hand anyway”
“I only got half of the deal”
“What?”
“She said they would only accept half of our conditions” Then Chi-Woo began to explain what Evelyn told him She would pretend to attack the demon empire with her troops so that they could safelyattention away froht against the Sernitas Yet Evelyn didn’t accept Chi-Woo’s request to sweep away the ion; more specifically, she said she would take care of the roup needed to take care of the rest by theet to the capital on their own
“How surprising There are some considerations she had made, but of course, all the little details are at her advantage,” Zelit said after hearing about the deal, specifically referring to the way Evelyn said she would only ‘pretend to attack’ the De that the results were to her side’s advantage
“It’s fine” Chi-Woo shrugged “I also said I won’t fight the entire Sernitas, but just their God” This was in response to what Evelyn had told hi to my infor one of Liber’s Gods and transfor, and they’ll soon send the God to our side]
“Still, I wanted to uys didn’t have to step out…”
“No, I think it’s better this way,” Zelit disagreed “We can’t keep relying on you forever We also have to do things on our end” In other words, they couldn’t si his life
“We have to prepare for times when you aren’t here That’s what I realized keenly froree hat Zelit said
“But still, it’s clear that most of us would die by the loads if ent on the ether and discuss thisout of his pocket It was the blood-colored seed that Evelyn gave him
“Does anyone knohat this is? I was told that it was the seed of a spirit,” Chi-Woo said and lifted the seed high into the air There was no way the heroes would know, and even Eshnunna and Haere knowledgeable about the ancient times, shook their heads It seeined
“Okay then, you hold onto this for now” Chi-Woo flicked the seed at the bun, and the bun jumped up and sed it A period of silence followed Chi-Woo repeatedly gripped his fists and opened the anxious, Zelit said, “Fighting a God…is probably the end battle inaccumulated your powers properly”
“Well, if you word it like that”
“I don’t know your poell, so I can’t speak for you, but it would probably be dangerous If you succeed, though, you will have a huge accomplishment under your belt” Which would of course be followed by a huge reward Chi-Woo would have a lot to look forward to if he succeeded: they could join forces with the previous recruits, expect collaboration with the Abyss, and accumulate a substantial number of merits
“That’s not all We would be able to serve a new God,” Chi-Woo said
Zelit didn’t understand what Chi-Woo was saying at first, but soon, his esting that they could use the Sernitas’ attack to their own advantage and turn a corrupted God into their ally It was probably the best-case scenario—if only they could succeed Zelit gulped ‘Has he been ai…?’
“Would you really be able to do that?”
“I can’t give any guarantee,” Chi-Woo looked down at his fu hand The World’s Milestone was on his palm
“Still” The conversation was over, and there was no turning back Chi-Woo rolled the die between his fingers two tihtly into his fist “We have to try”
The die had already been cast
The next day, Chi-Woo gathered everyone and told them about the current situation The heroes’ faces turned serious as they listened to Chi-Woo They knew the circu how strong the evolved mutant monsters were first-hand, they looked hesitant And when Chi-Woo said that he wanted to hear all their opinions about this matter, one of them bravely raised his hand
“I think it would be difficult in our current situation Six or seven people had to fight as a team just to deal with one uarantee victory Considering the mutants have now evolved… Of course, it would be different for Ru Amuh, Ru Hiana, and Allen Leonard, but…”
“What? Are you seriously saying this when Senior has to go fight a corrupted God—?” Ru Hiana immediately flared up at the hero’s statements, but Chi-Woo cal Thus, Chi-Woo asked what he could do so that the heroes would becoestions, but they all boiled down to one thing: they needed to make a contract with a God and awaken their powers
