Chapter 1163: Aspiration to Become (My Thighs Ache From Riding a Bicycle Every Day and I Can’t Walk)
Chapter 1163 Yearning to Become……… (My thighs hurt from riding a bicycle every day and I can’t walk)
“………………Why should I sign a contract with you?”
The witch in front of him stared at Duanmu Huai coldly.
By the way, she has now completely shed her original petrified shell. From the outside, she is just a cute girl about the same age as Qianshu, with long pink hair and bright red eyes. Of course, this witch is not wearing clothes, but Duanmu Huai doesn’t care.
After all, he can’t do anything now, right?
“Haven’t you already driven so many powerful beings? You don’t need me at all!”
That’s right, although she just woke up and hasn’t figured out what’s going on, the witch can be sure that the being in front of her has far more power than herself. Apart from anything else, each of the things she summoned just now is enough to fight against a very powerful demon. If they rush up, even she is not a match.
What makes the witch even more terrified is that she doesn’t know what it is.
If it’s a demon, then it’s easy to understand. But the witch is sure that the girl in front of her is not driving a demon, but some kind of completely incomprehensible existence - could it be a mythical beast!
"I have something to ask you."
"Then............"
"But you are a demon, and I hate to use my brain. To be honest, I don't like people lying, and I don't like to find the truth from lies. As long as I sign a contract with you, then you can't lie, right? For me, that's enough."
"... Just for this?"
It must be said that even the witch who just woke up was very surprised to hear the answer of the girl in front of her. But soon, she sneered.
"Is it really possible? The nun just said that you may think you can drive the demon, but in the end the demon will eat you up. Moreover, signing a contract with the demon requires a price, so what price do you plan to pay?"
"Well......"
Hearing the witch's question, Duanmu Huai thought for a moment and flipped through the ancient books again.
"Life span."
"……………………It is indeed a very orthodox and classical way. Is it really okay? You don't look very old, and you still have a long life ahead of you. Maybe you think it doesn't matter now, but when you know that day is really coming, can you still treat it so calmly?"
"I can understand what you said. In fact, I have seen similar things."
"Oh?"
"I have seen an animation before. The nun in it signed a contract with the devil. By consuming her own life, she drove the devil to destroy the enemy and protect mankind. At the end of the animation, as you said, the young girl's life came to an end, but she did not die calmly. Instead, when the sun set, she cried and hugged the devil who had signed the contract with her, shouting that she didn't want to die... To be honest, this scene gave me a great shock at the time. After all, generally speaking, wouldn't this kind of development eventually lead to death calmly? However, even if the girl was mentally prepared, she finally In the end, she still longed to live... But even though she felt fear in the face of death, she still persisted to the end. I have to say, it is indeed very respectable. Oh, by the way, although the girl eventually consumed her life and died, the demon who was her target still lived leisurely in this world. It is really a non-mainstream ending. "
"………What is animation? But so, you are avenging that girl... "
"So I think it's a rare opportunity, so I might as well COS it. "
"What is COS? ! Although I don't know what you are talking about, I always feel that you are definitely not saying anything good! "
"Also, if the contract requires a token, can it be replaced by a watch? The kind that is worn on the chest will count down every time the life is consumed. I think this will be more like it. "
"……………………………What do you think of signing a contract with the devil... "
Listening to the request made by Duanmu Huai in front of her, the witch was speechless. Although she had been sealed for so long that she didn't understand what Duanmu Huai meant by "animation" or "COS", she could guess that this person probably wanted to imitate the actions of a character in a story because he admired him...
Speaking of which, although he had been sealed for so many years, the witch still wanted to say, are you humans playing so hard now?
What do you think of signing a contract with the devil?
Taking a deep breath, the witch stared at Duanmu Huai in front of her and said.
"Then, give me the contract."
"Contract? What is that?"
"………………Don't you even know this? When humans and devils sign a contract, they need a detailed contract... …………"
"It's so troublesome, I don't want such troublesome things."
However, the witch's explanation was interrupted by Duanmu Huai impatiently.
"The content of the contract is very simple, you must obey my orders completely and answer my questions truthfully."
"………………Is it really okay?"
It has to be said that the witch was speechless when faced with Duanmu Huai's extremely simple contract requirements. Generally speaking, signing a contract between humans and demons is a battle of wits and courage. Both parties will deliberately leave various traps and restraints in the contract in order to restrain the other party.
However, Duanmu Huai's three-axe chop made the witch lose her temper at all... She had never seen such direct contract conditions.
"certainly."
"Then, I also have a condition."
"What conditions?"
"Show me your true face."
"Aha?"
"It's hard for me to recognize someone as my master if he doesn't even want to show his true identity."
"…………Well, that makes sense."
Duanmu Huai was not surprised by the witch's request. If he thought about it carefully, he had been wearing a cloak and hiding his face in the shadows. In the animation, he was simply the mastermind behind the scenes. He would appear in front of the protagonist after the final boss was killed. The kind that means the battle has just begun...
Okay, it's really suspicious.
"Oh well."
Duanmuhuai sighed silently, then reached out and took off his hood, and then looked at the witch in front of him. The latter's eyes widened in surprise at this moment, staring at the girl in front of him without blinking, and his mouth was as wide as an egg, as if he had seen something incredible.
Well, the charm is working, it's normal.
Duanmuhuai silently put on his hood again. After a while, the witch seemed to tremble suddenly and come back to her senses.
"That'll be no problem."
"Ah, um..."
"Then hurry up and sign the contract. I still have a lot of things to do, so I won't waste my time here."
"ok, I get it."
While answering Duanmu Huai's words, the witch looked at the girl in front of her - the scene just now was unforgettable for her. At that moment, it seemed as if all the bright colors in the world were gathered here, allowing her to see them thoroughly. She was so entranced that when the other person put on the hood again, the witch even had a strong impulse, as if she had lost everything, as if she was in love.
Ugh...what a pity.
Staring at the girl in front of her, the witch began to think. Originally, she wanted to solve the problem by completely taking away the other person's lifespan during the process of signing the contract. This can't be blamed on her, after all, who asked the other party's contract conditions to be so rough? Even the required lifespan was not specified when signing the contract, so it would be no problem to take it all for myself.
After all, this is a devil's contract.
But after witnessing the existence in front of her, the witch suddenly changed her mind. No matter what, to let such a beautiful existence disappear, even I would feel it is a crime... Right.
Thinking of this, a dark smile appeared in the witch's eyes.
Take away most of her lifespan and make her completely his own, turning her into a doll that can't move without him... Huhuhu, as a demon, this is better than simply taking away the other person's lifespan and soul. More interesting things!
"Well, let's follow the steps first. Since you want to make a contract with the devil, you should at least know how to do it, right?"
"...It's really troublesome to come up with a name, isn't it? At times like this, don't demons usually have real names?"
Duanmu Huai complained silently. Of course, complaints are complaints. Strictly speaking, in his opinion, this contract method is much better than the contract between Faerun and the devil, because the real names of the devils are longer than the last, and it is easy to memorize them just by memorizing them. It feels like a lot of brain cells are dying.
Of course, the reason why those devils make their real names so long is also very simple - once you write a wrong word, the entire contract will be immediately invalid.
In comparison, the devil's contract in this world seems a bit young.
Forget it, come to your senses, name name... it's so troublesome.
Duanmu Huai glanced at the ancient books and randomly found a name.
"Let's call him Ki Geng."
"Is this enough?"
"Yes, Demon Kisara, please make a contract with me at the cost of my life."
While opening the ancient book and looking at the words on it, Duanmu Huai opened his mouth and spoke according to the lines described above.
"Then what happens next... ugh...!"
However, Duanmu Huai's words were not finished, because at this moment, the witch suddenly stretched out her hand and placed it on Duanmu Huai's cheek. The next moment, the girl's soft lips pressed against her tightly. .
"Uh...?"
To be honest, Duanmu Huai was quite surprised by the witch's sudden attack. But he didn't panic. Although the body was that of a woman, the other person was also a woman, and she looked like a beautiful girl from the outside. It wasn't a loss at all, it was even a gain!
The soft existence came in like a dexterous little snake, stirring constantly. At the same time, Duanmuhuai could feel that some kind of power was gradually passing away in his body...
Then, after dozens of seconds, the two parties slowly separated, while Mu Geng stared at Duanmu Huai with wide eyes.
"How is it possible...how strong is your vitality?"
"That's true, but only a little bit...well, it's no exception."
In response to Mu Geng's inquiry, Duanmu Huai did not answer, but glanced at his HP first.
It must be pointed out that although Duanmu Huai's clone, that is, the original game character, looks like a weak and beautiful girl, in fact, this character follows the same career path as Duanmu Huai. Although there is no divine job bonus, it still follows the path of being thick-skinned, strong, and high-attack and blood-boosting.
Otherwise, why would the ID be called "Little Fists Hit Your Head".
So of course, the HP value of the game character Duanmu Huai is already over a million, and the HP that Mu Geng just took away... well, only about a thousand.
In addition, Mu Geng took away not the HP limit, but the HP value, which means that Duanmu Huai can make up for it as long as he draws holy water or something.
"How is it possible? Aren't you a human?"
At this moment, Mu Geng widened his eyes and looked at Duanmu Huai in surprise. You have to know that the lifespan of the opponent she just absorbed would be eighty or ninety years if it were a human. Even if the lifespan of the girl in front of her could reach a hundred years, she would definitely be weak now.
The fact is that Mu Geng almost burst his belly, but the latter still had no reaction at all, as calm as if he was bitten by a mosquito!
"In short, the contract is now complete."
Facing Mu Geng's horrified eyes, Duanmu Huai just sneered.
Are you kidding, making a contract?
Well, Duanmu Huai admitted that he did not have the ability of a lawyer, and he was not like those rat-like demons in the nine layers of hell in the world of Faerun, who would go in whenever they had time. But there was no need for him to go in, right? What is a contract? A contract is just to guarantee and constrain the credit of both parties. If you do not keep your word, then it is a violation of the contract and you will be punished.
But if I am so powerful that I don't care about the punishment, your broken contract is useless to me!
Just like those Fortune 500 companies, I have infringed your patent, what can you do? If you have the ability, you can sue me in 200 countries around the world. I have thousands of lawyers. Let's see if you can afford it. In the end, will you go bankrupt by fighting the lawsuit or just sign the settlement agreement and get out? Think it over for yourself!
It can be seen from this that contracts and credit are useless. Strength is the absolute rule!
Contracts without strength are all bullshit!
Duanmu Huai is the same. Lifespan is nothing. The HP value of my clone is far higher than that of humans. Even if you punish me for violating the contract, it will not hurt me. So I will obey this contract if I want to, and I will not obey it if I don’t want to. What can you do to me?
Rules? What are rules? I can’t beat you in chess, but I can smash you to death with the chessboard. This is the rule!
Contract spirit? Whoever has the bigger fist has the spirit!
You dare to talk about fairness with me without a gun in your hand?
Looking at Mu Geng who was kneeling on the ground and staring at him, Duanmu Huai showed a calm sneer.
"Okay, answer my question obediently."
At this moment, Duanmu Huai felt that he was very stable. With big tape and cute big breasts, everything was under control. There was absolutely no problem with this equipment!
However, this "everything is under control" mentality only lasted for five minutes.
"……………So, you have nothing to do with witches, and you don't know about magical girls or QB?"
"I've never seen the things you're talking about!!"
Hearing Mu Geng's angry answer, Duanmu Huai was speechless.
According to Mu Geng, their clan has always lived in the deep mountains and old forests, but at that time they were not called demons, but monsters by the people here. Later, hundreds of years ago, a monster hunter went up the mountain and was injured and unconscious, but Mu Geng's mother fell in love with him, cured his injuries and took care of him.
The result was that the two sides developed feelings, and then Mu Geng was born.
Of course, the final ending is actually very mainstream. The demon-slaying organization where Mu Geng's father belongs came here, killed Mu Geng's parents, and sealed Mu Geng up. Justice defeated evil, and humans defeated demons.
Well, congratulations, congratulations.
But for Duanmu Huai... it's not the case at all!
Therefore, this witch is not the witch hiding in the barrier at all, but a metaphor made by the later recorder to Mugen, and Mugen herself is not the kind of magical girl transformed by QB MLM, but a hybrid of human and devil………………
This is completely different from what I thought. Didn’t my intuition feel good before? What is this?
Is there something wrong with my intuition?
“It seems that you didn’t get the information you need.”
Looking at Duanmu Huai who was holding his head in distress, Mugen smiled——Well, at this moment, the offense and defense were switched, and the smile did not disappear, but shifted.
“………How is it? Do you regret signing a contract with the devil so rashly and even sacrificing your life?”
“………Forget it, it’s not a loss.”
However, to Mugen’s surprise, Duanmu Huai was very open-minded. He was only distressed for a moment, and then stood up and made a decision.
“Let’s go, let’s leave here.”
Although he didn’t get the information he wanted from Mugen, in Duanmu Huai’s opinion, this contract was not in vain. What he lacked most now was manpower, and given the situation of this clone, Duanmu Huai didn't dare to ask the big guys from the Tribunal to come and watch the fun.
Lummiel is familiar with his form, and has stayed with him in the world of Night City for a long time, but unfortunately, this time it seems to be a complete magic problem, but unfortunately, Lumiel belongs to the thorough scientific side. As for this witch... Although from the perspective of the Inquisition, she is more like an illegal psychic, but she is not in the range of being unable to be requisitioned.
At least she is more familiar with this world than herself, and she is a witch, so she should have a certain degree of knowledge of magic.
It would be great to use her as a subordinate!
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai was calm.
Want to escape from me? Dream on!
