Chapter 355 (1/2)

”I'm not interested in being an accomplice to the devil.” Cheese replied decisively. Although life is so fragile in this world, this is not the reason why mages turn them into trading chips with demons.

”Hey, don't be so sure. I promise you that the three men you are going to kill will not cause you any trouble. ” It seems that the smiley man's reaction to cheese is unexpected. In the devil's opinion, a caster who puts knowledge first like cheese should be very open to his request. After all, those ignorant mortals in the eyes of the latter are no different from the animals, killing a few ants can exchange for the knowledge they want, which should be a good deal in any case.

But the mage just shook his head. ”If they died of the contract with you, I have nothing to say. But it's quite another thing for me to kill myself. Devil, though I think I am not a noble man, I am not yet a slave to desire. Yes, I crave knowledge, but that doesn't mean I don't care about anything else. ”

”That's a surprise to me. Are you really that Clark's disciple? How could he let his disciples have this idea? Or is it another stupid attempt to raise your status? I'd like to remind you, Mr. cheese, no matter what your real thoughts are, the things you show have shaken my confidence in doing business with you. I don't want my trading partner to be, um, sentimental. ” The devil moved his body with a clear dissatisfaction in his tone. ”If you want me to say, you'd better sign this contract quickly, so that we can both keep more good feelings for each other?”

”Ha ha.” Cheese, smile. Indeed, the education of grey tower has never had such a topic as respecting life. For the Lord of the grey tower, the apprentices spent their limited time studying the mysteries, but their progress was slow. Naturally, he would not care about their values. This leads to the apathetic character of most grey robed mages. They only care about more knowledge or things they are interested in. They don't care about the good and evil of their actions.

But cheese is not the same, in the gray tower, he is a special presence. Because of all the other apprentices, they are lonely. From the beginning of coming to the grey tower, they have only themselves and endless knowledge left in their life. However, cheese has a second teacher besides Clark, anlina. The old vampire raised cheese like a mother. In the process, some of her values and magic knowledge inevitably entered the young mage's mind. In addition, the first stop of cheese into the world is Cangshi, a kingdom of chivalry. The people he contacted showed great respect for life. These two influences work together on the mage, which makes him avoid becoming a person like Curse crow unconsciously.

”Change it. I won't accept it.” The grey robed mage didn't care about the devil's threat, shook his head and said.

Devil, silent. He stood behind the cheese, not knowing what he was thinking. The candles in the room were burning quietly. There were not many red candles left, but the contract was still floating in front of the mage. The words written by the devil and human characters on the paper sent out a dark red light.

”Well, wizard. It seems that I did have some wrong comments on you before. Can I ask you a question before I change the terms of the deal? To satisfy my curiosity that I haven't had for a long time. ”

”Go ahead and I'll try to answer you.” The corners of the cheese's mouth went up, and he knew that the devil gave in.

”Why, you can promise the witch named emia to hunt down her kind, but you don't want to kill for the sake of trading with me? Isn't there a contradiction between the two? ”

The mage was silent for a moment and said, ”there is no reason for this. I don't kill the heartless witches just because they belong to the dark, or because you want me to kill three mortals. It has nothing to do with the identity of the person I'm going to kill and the benefits I can get after killing. I just feel that killing people according to your contract will make me uncomfortable. That's it

”Yes, I understand it all. Ha ha ha, I see! So it is! ” This was the second time the devil laughed. Meanwhile, as the existence under the smiling face mask kept making unpleasant laughter, the candle at the five corners of the array was also burnt out. However, the devil did not disappear with the candle. The smiling man just waved and the five candles that were about to be extinguished stopped strangely. The flame on their heads stopped beating, and it felt as if time had suddenly solidified.

Cheese knows that this is not the case. If the devil can stop time, he doesn't need to trade with himself. So there is only one explanation for this. ”Are you paying for your existence? I heard the price was amazing. ” The mage's eyes narrowed, and the devil's interest in the deal exceeded his expectation, which was not a good omen.

”It's just a few deals in vain. Since you've shown me something so interesting, a few empty souls will be my tip for you.” Said the devil, and went from behind the chair to the mage. This action almost makes cheese jump out of the chair, because in this calling ceremony, the summoned devil can not appear in front of the summoner. And the smiley man's ability to do this in such a leisurely way only means that he has got rid of the restrictions of the calling ceremony.”Poof” as parchment turned to ashes in the devil's hand, the smiling face on the mask looked even more strange in the shadow of the fire. ”Forget about this boring contract. I can give you better service this time, given your performance.” Then, a piece of gold plate appeared in the air, and the devil used his fingernails to mark it down, and large sections of text were printed on it.

”Come on, Mr. cheese, I promise you will be satisfied with the contract this time.”

The mage quickly read the contents of the gold plate. He found that in the new contract, the provision of limited information for brokers was changed to provide all the information of brokers in the plague of Cangshi. At the same time, the original clause of killing three mortals and harvesting their souls was changed to another bizarre content, protecting Gloria, the daughter of the former count of salon, for three years.
