Chapter 20 (1/2)

Everything seems to be developing as the masked man said, and every unexpected accident confirms the credibility of the mysterious man. You know, it's possible to make and predict one or two accidents. However, it is not enough to describe the events and events of hundreds of people in a town as if they could tell the truth. Mayor band gradually believed the masked man's words, and even saved some tragedies that should have happened according to the information he gave. By the end of the fourth week, the mayor of the town began to be hesitant about the plague mentioned by Mr. smile. There is no doubt that the mask man has the ability to predict, but what he says is not necessarily true. So, is this terrible disaster a lie that the other party wants to cheat for the benefit, or is it a real warning from the prophet. Mayor band had to think about it all day and night.

When ”Mr. smile” appeared in front of the mayor for the fourth time, band was ready to recognize him. However, this time, the masked man regretted that because of the suspicion and dullness of the mayor, the strength of the four children who devoted themselves to the town was not enough to make him stay longer. His appearance could not last long. On hearing this, mayor bander was in a panic, and the well-designed words of temptation were also thrown aside. He quickly asked the masked man how to make the count lead escape from the plague.

”Let me guess what he said to you.” At this point, cheese interrupted the mayor's account, and then said.

”I think Mr. smile must have told you that the downfall of the Earl was inevitable, but he had a way to save sweet water. Right? ”

The mayor nodded and approved the mage's words.

”But I think he must have said that because the way to protect sweet water is very complicated, it is too late for him to appear. So if you want to know this method, you have to pay the price again and extend his time, right? ”

The mayor nodded again.

”What? Have you offered another child because of his words? ” The landlady heard that she had stood up. If the death of the previous four children should be counted on the devil's head, but the fifth child was delivered by the mayor himself.

The mayor shook his head when he heard this, but before he could say that cheese had already pressed the landlady.

”How can it be? Although a child's soul is very attractive, the devil will not let the mayor of this big fish have any chance to hesitate. So I think he must have come up with a relatively cheap alternative. ”

”Yes, the man said that the reason why children's lives were needed before was that he was forced to appear in front of me. If I invited him myself, the cost of calling would be much lower. ” Said the mayor of band.

”He didn't lie. The devil was excluded from the bright side of the world and could not enter the world itself. But if they are invited, it's another matter. ” He nodded and explained. There is another word cheese didn't say, just a whisper in the heart - but those who invite them, often pay more than life.

”You don't have to describe the details of the summoning. As far as I know, there are no less than ten kinds of summoning rituals. Just tell me what he did with you. ” Said cheese.

”How do you know he offered to trade with me?” The mayor asked, because of the knowledge of cheese, he had unconsciously used honorifics to the mage.

”Oh, that guy has won your trust through all kinds of trouble. Is it really for the sake of doing good? There is only one way for the devils to get what they want, and that is to trade. I would be surprised if he didn't do business with you. ” Cheese sneered, for the devil's behavior, the mage has a personal understanding.
