Chapter 328 - 328: Other Red Onis appeared. (1/2)
”Now, I said that I want these bodies, and I won't take from you without giving something back.” He could tell that the ax and armor she wore was only level 4 and had a poor quality.
The ax and armor were only durable, as she possessed a large amount of energy and wore part and around the ax and armor, strengthening it.
Buying a large ax and taking a level 5 armor from the Storage Ring, Theo threw it at her: ”If you let me keep these bodies, these two items are yours.”
Two spheres went in the Oni's direction, making her dodge instead of picking up. They were a big silver ax detailed in blue marks and a watery level 5 armor that could adjust to the user's size.
Aomi looked suspiciously at these two items that fell on the floor. Without taking her eyes off Theo, she crouched down and picked up the big ax over 2 meters in size.
”Wow!” Aomi felt the power spill over when she held the ax. It was very different from her ax, it was also related to her affinity for water. Theo was able to feel that she had some affinity in earth and water.
And although Oni Aomi was impressed by this, for Theo it was not much, compared to getting these bodies without having to fight. Even if it was, he didn't feel in the mood to get into a fight with her.
Even Mizuki didn't seem to want to do that. So, the best option would be to negotiate.
”Snore~”
Oni Aomi's belly growled and she looked towards a large buffalo, not far away. It was easy to know that the creature was the cause of this battle. It was a fight for food, probably.
”Are you hungry? I have some meat with me.” Theo said and took out a big bone with a lot of meat around the bone (Just like what is seen in anime, yes, Theo replied). He took out a piece to show it wasn't poisoned.
”See, it's okay to eat.” Theo said: ”I just want to negotiate with you, not to fight. If possible, I want to get what I need peacefully.”
”...”
”Okay, I will believe you.” She said and Theo threw the piece of meat at her. Taking her hand, she took a small bite. Automatically, her eyes shone like a starry sky.
”Delicious! Very delicious!” She exclaimed loudly. She had never had anything so good in her life. Although the flesh of hellish monsters was good, it did not reach that level.
Aomi patted her belly satisfied, and for the first time, a faint smile appeared on her face, as if what she had just eaten was more interesting than defeating ten or twenty Red Onis.
She also seemed to like that big blue ax, no wonder, that she held tightly as if she was afraid it would be taken back.
She went and picked up the core of the level 5 armor. Her eyes widened wildly when she felt the power overflowing from that armor. It was different from the one she was using.
Since the beginning, Theo showed no signs of hostility to Aomi, but only confidence, something even the closest beings she had never demonstrated. A strange and warm feeling inside her heart.
She removed all of the armor she was wearing, getting n.a.k.e.d, regardless of the fact that Theo was looking, and began to merge with the core of the level 5 armor.
She had no sense of shame, it was natural for the Oni to be n.a.k.e.d. An armor would make her stronger, and this was sufficient to wear. Her private parts weren't a reason to wear something.
After finishing covering herself in the watery blue armor with silver details, she spoke to Theo: ”Theo, right? You can have these Onis, I agree with what you said.”
”I see, this is good.” Theo smiled at her and started storing the Onis' corpses in his Storage Ring.
She looked at Theo curiously. He was different from all the beings she had seen before. He never saw anyone who was willing to negotiate with her, and he even offered her such treasure. It even gave delicious food...
”Huh?” Theo frowned as he noticed several presences coming in the direction he was standing.
