Chapter 282 Powerlessness
"This feeling."
Nohir closed his eyes and carefully felt the weird feeling just now. At the moment he signed the contract, he noticed something inexplicable being exerted on his body. This feeling is hard to describe, but hard To put it bluntly, it was like a thin net covering his whole body.
This net was very thin. At the moment when the contract was signed, Nohir clearly felt its existence, but now, he could not detect the net anyway.
However, although he cannot detect it again, Nohir knows that the net has not disappeared. Before the contract reaches the time limit, or until one of the two dies, it will always exist, shrouding himself and Gagos. Nohill is extremely convinced of this.
"Oh? Do you feel it?"
"What?"
Nohir opened his eyes and looked at the shield.
"Have you felt the mana effect of that contract? Do you feel that there is a chain... No, this contract has very little restraint on you. You should feel it more lightly, but that is why I So surprised."
"You have to know that as the leading party in the contract, that is, the person with sovereignty, it should be difficult for you to notice the constraints of the contract on you, but you still noticed... It's interesting, you have a very strong sense of perception. "
Gargas said with some pretense, but Nohir didn't buy his account. He saw through Gargas' thoughts at a glance, and the crown also captured his purpose.
This guy still wants to negotiate with him. The reason why he talks nonsense is just to show that he is well-informed so that he can have a certain say in the subsequent negotiations, but Nohill has already reached an agreement. His main purpose was that he no longer wanted or needed to talk nonsense with this shield.
Now he has no worries about the negative consequences of not giving face to this devil, because the additional conditions he added even include money that can order Gargas to shut up at any time.
At this time, Nohir had the absolute initiative, and just when Nohir wanted to exercise the rights given to him by the Hell Contract and shut up Gargas directly, some news emerged in the devil's mind. At this moment his attention was attracted.
‘Wait a minute, this guy wants it, so that’s it, let’s solve it once and for all. ’
Nohir suppressed his impatience and turned his attention to the shield again.
"No matter what you want to do when you say these words, I advise you to say it as soon as possible. Gargas, I don't have so much time to play these word games with you now, so after you exhaust my patience, or even because of this You'd better say something before you provoke me into exercising my power to shut you up for 50 years."
Nohir's straightforward words directly silenced Gargas for a moment. People often feel a certain amount of uneasiness after their own characteristics are seen through by the enemy, and thus make some wrong judgments. That's why Gargas said it before. Those words, he used to be very good at this trick, but now it seems that this trick is not working.
"...I'm really impatient. Okay, okay, I'll tell you the truth. In fact, you should be able to guess what I want to say. After all, there is only one thing I long for from beginning to end, and that is freedom. "
"Are you kidding? Do you think I will still want to release you after I learn your true identity?"
"Oh, friends, don't let your prejudice affect the relationship between us. Maybe I have deceived you before and concealed my true identity from you, but other than that, I have never done anything wrong. you?"
"That's just because I was on guard enough and you didn't find the opportunity to cause harm. Come on, Gargas, don't use this level of talking skills. Use it to fool children. If you really think that I I will believe your nonsense.”
"...Well, it seems that the emotional card won't work for you, so let's get practical. I admit that we did not have a basis for mutual trust before, but it is different now. Under the constraints of the hell contract, we There is already a basis for mutual trust.”
"As the reviser of the contract, you should know very well that under the constraints of that contract, I will not be able to pose the slightest threat to you for 50 years. A full 50 years, what a long time it is. This contract is effective enough to last until you leave hell, so what if you release me from the shield during this period? "
"If you think this is not safe enough, I can sign an additional contract with you. This contract can be regarded as an additional contract to the previous contract. I can swear to you in this contract that from now on I will provide you with all the help I can in the next 50 years.”
"You must know that it is not easy to get the help of a devil, let alone a devil as powerful as me, and this friendship and help will last for 50 years. This is 50 years of loyalty. ! I can even help you pull the entire city out of hell! Believe me, as long as you can break my seal, I am absolutely capable of doing this!"
Gargas' words were truly sincere, and even from the perspective of the devil, Nohir had shown obvious heartbeat, which made him feel happy.
If Noshiel really agrees to this deal, it will be a sure win for Gargos. 50 years may be a long time for these mortals, but it is just a blink of an eye for a devil of his level.
For Gargos, even if he really pledges allegiance to Noshiel for 50 years, it is not a bad idea. As long as he can really get out of this damn shield, everything will be worth it. He will definitely not lose money.
"How about this condition? I have used my greatest sincerity. As long as you agree to do your best to find a way to break the seal for me within the 50 years stipulated in the contract, I will swear allegiance to you within the time stipulated in the contract."
Gargos said this while looking at Noshiel who seemed to be lost in thought. There is actually a hidden loophole in his words, that is, his loyalty will only last for the 50 years limited by the contract.
But strictly speaking, this is not really a loophole. This condition can only make Noshiel pay more attention to the matter of removing the shield seal.
After all, if Noshir waits too long to break the seal, or if he can't break the seal at all, then Noshir's control over Gargos will be shortened, but to be honest, this restriction is very weak, and he is just a shield at this time.
The hidden lord who once had a great reputation can now do almost nothing and can only be controlled by others. This implicit incentive is all that Gargos can do.
He has had enough of this powerlessness.
