v4 Chapter 22: contract between master and servant

Inside and outside the porch, Donald and Huxley stood opposite each other.

The former stood by the gate, shrouded in the light of the wall lamp, and the eyes behind the golden mask stared at the old man in front of him, which was meaningful.

And in the shadow behind the door, Lilo, holding a long sword, said nothing.

For Huxley, Donald initially thought that he was a role similar to a personal bodyguard. After all, his identity was Serveit Talos' housekeeper, and he was often inseparable from him, and his identity was concealed enough.

However, with a series of arrangements this afternoon, Donald watched him handle various affairs with ease, and he knew the situation inside the Talos family and the current situation in Renas City. He is also present in the leading capital alliance.

Such things are not the performance of an old housekeeper.

It's just that he is talented in internal affairs, but this guy is still a powerhouse at the peak of the awakening level!

As long as Huxley showed his talent, Donald believed that a large number of people would recruit him, and it would not be difficult to become a core member of the Talos family in the near future.

Why would such a person work under a **** like Serveit Talos?

This conjecture led Donald, who had intended to use Huxley as a thug, to believe that this was a ticking time bomb.

Huxley, who was standing outside the porch steps, was also looking at Donald at this time, and he also had his own views on the new "old master".

Nearly destroying Serveit Talos' team on the long street is a testament to the strength of the team he leads.

The careful planning of the attack, and the steps taken after the attack, shows that these people are not foolhardy, as he had said before Salazar, killing Serveit and Salazar was only the premise of their plan. condition.

Not to mention that the new master now holds his own soul and resists him. Not only will he not be able to achieve his goals, but he is more likely to die here directly.

"I'll ask again, what do you want from me now that he should say, wealth? Power?"

Seeing Huxley's delay in answering, Donald narrowed his eyes and asked again,

"Now, I must get your answer!"

The experience of the past two years has taught Donald a truth that he deeply understands.

Hesitation will only make oneself into a passive situation.

Huxley must give him a reasonable explanation, otherwise he will never leave this time bomb with him.

"The truth, I need to know the truth that a Talos family has been hiding for more than 20 years."

Huxley sensed the killing intent, and the girl behind the door who was still not showing signs of weakness even after the battle with Salazar made him feel great pressure. After hesitating for a moment, he finally said,

"Only the head of the Talos family is qualified to know this truth. Serveit Talos is my best choice. Of course, now it's you."

"What truth?"

"I don't know the specific content of it, and because of this, I want to pursue it. I don't know that you are willing to reach a cooperation contract with me."

If it was someone else, Huxley would rather die than reveal this information, but this person in front of him is different. He killed Servetus Talos with his own hands. To a certain extent, this allows Huxley to also master it. One of his handles, although the current situation of the two sides is not equal, but if the fish die and the net is broken, Huxley can be regarded as a hole card of his own.

"It's interesting, let's hear it."

Donald snapped his fingers, a light-colored magic circle flashed in front of him, and then a layer of invisible power expanded outward, shrouding the surrounding environment.

Forbidden barrier.

"The content of the contract is very simple, I can do my best to help you control Renas and go higher in the future, and I want in return that when you have the ability to know that secret, you must share it with me, "

Servetus Talos was the target that Huxley had thought about for a long time before he chose. The business has finally improved a little. Now it is unacceptable for him to give up and turn to other heirs of the Talos family.

It is true that Huxley did have a good talent, but that doesn't mean he still has enough time to make himself a confidant of other targets, let alone know through them the secrets that the Talos family has kept hidden for so long.

"In recent years, most of the private affairs of Serveit Talos have been handled by me. I can let you easily control those secret and secret industries, and I still hold the soft underbelly of a considerable part of Renas in high society. , so you don't have as much resistance in carrying out your plan."

Huxley was undoubtedly a smart man. He could see that the other party wanted to kill him. Now was the time to show his worth. He raised his hand and grasped it out of thin air. A delicate rifle half a man's height appeared in his hand, and he continued. ,

"I am a stranger at the peak of the awakening level. My talent is precision and energy gathering. I can do both mid- and long-distance sniping and close-range fighting!"

Donald was silent about this, as if waiting for something.

"Donald, he didn't lie to you."

Stephanie stepped out from behind the door and looked at Huxley with a terrified face.

She didn't make a fruit platter at all, but kept listening to Huxley and Donald's conversation behind the door, and detecting the former's psychological changes with emotional talent.

Lilo stood within Huxley's line of sight with her sword in hand, but it was a deliberate act of putting pressure on him.

"I have to admit, you convinced me, the contract is established!"

The other party has even made it clear about his own talent, and has shown enough sincerity. Donald doesn't mind leaving him alive for a while. The current situation really needs someone to help him complete the transition.

"Thank you for your trust, Master Serveit."

Bowing to pay tribute, the night wind blew, and Huxley was shocked to realize that his back was soaked in cold sweat.

This new owner of my own seems to be more savvy than I thought.

Back in his bedroom, Donald stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, looked at himself in the mirror and took off the ghost mask.

Stephanie, who was standing behind him, covered her mouth with a look of surprise in her eyes. Even Lilo took a few more glances at the image in the mirror.

Serveit Talos wasn't as vicious or ugly as Stephanie had imagined.

As the top aristocrat of the empire, the naturally excellent genes doomed Serveit Talos not to grow into a crooked melon and a cracked date.

Facts are the opposite of conjectures. Servette's appearance is very handsome. The lines of his face are not as angular as Donald's original, but he has a docile delicacy. In addition, Servette's already thin body, if you put aside other external appearances. Factors, such an image is really difficult to match the majesty and calmness.

But this is not the reason why Serveit wears a mask. After all, as he is, in Renas, no one can stop him when he walks sideways. The real reason why he wears a mask wherever he goes is because of the presence of the mask on his face. Characteristics that should not belong to a human being.

About **** above the two eyebrows, there is an inexplicable mark formed by the intertwined black monster pattern.

This strange mark occupies nearly half of Servette's forehead. Donald saw the special existence on Servette's face in the house and noticed it at first glance. Servette has been wearing a mask, probably just to cover up Its existence~lightnovelpub.net~ is just that there were too many things to do at that time, and I couldn't set aside time to check it out.

"Lilo, can you help me find out information about it."

Nodding on the mark on his forehead, it represents something that Donald must find out, and the key to finding it lies in the soul of Serveit Talos in Lilo's hands.

"If you want to know the detailed information, you must absorb his soul fragments."

Lilo, who holds Servetus' soul in her hands, responded in her mind.

"One time?"

Absorbing external soul fragments is a very dangerous act. If it is a one-off, it means that the memories of Servette for the past twenty years will flood into Donald's mind in an instant, which can easily cause confusion and confusion in the original memory. The body soul is damaged, and the consequences are extremely serious.

Speaking of which, Donald had experienced this kind of thing when he first came to this world, but the soul fragments of his original body had already been absorbed by Mineato. Otherwise, Donald would not only remember who his parents were when he was reborn, and other memories. It was completely blank, and even if it was only a small part of the soul fragment, it still caused Donald to have intermittent memory recalls after that, which caused him considerable trouble.

Because of this, even if Donald's soul is very powerful now, he is still cautious about this kind of thing related to the soul.

"You are too weak. One-time swallowing will cause damage to the soul. After breaking the soul, store the fragments and eat them piece by piece."

Lilo proposes a compromise.

"Is that okay?"

This was the first time Donald had heard of this method, and he was a little stunned for a while.

"No one else can, I can!"

High-level undead are so confident in the use of souls!
