Chapter 22: The Soul Contract
'Where are you going to eat?' Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info'Asakura Ye took out cash from the ATM inside the bank, and after putting them in his pocket, he thought as he licked his lips as he looked at the entire street, and the signboard that was wantonly glowing with colorful neon lights in order to attract customers.
Just as he was carefully observing the menu posted outside the restaurant, hesitating whether to go in or change to another one, he was suddenly bumped slightly from the side, "I'm sorry." The man who bumped into Asakura said.
"Saten?" After hearing the voice, Asakura Ye frowned and turned his head to look at the other party with displeasure, and when he saw the person who bumped into him, his original displeasured look turned into doubt, that person was Satian Tears who he had just met today, and there was a person next to her who was wearing the same clothes as her, and he was wearing several different flowers and plants on his head.
"Ah Ye, why are you here?" Hearing someone call her name, Zuo Tian also looked at each other with tears, and asked suspiciously after discovering that the person was the person she met today and had saved her.
"The fridge at home is out of ingredients, so I came out to eat. β
"Oh. You've eaten it up. After hearing Ma Cangye's words, thinking of his big stomach today's appetite, Zuo Tian teased with a smile.
"You can say the same thing. Asakura Ha shrugged her shoulders and replied, then looked at Hatsuharu Ori next to her and asked, "That's right." Who is she?"
"My good friend. Early spring ornamentation. β
Smack! Slapping his hand on the shoulder of Chu Chun Furiya, Zuo Tian said proudly.
"Hello. Hatsuharu Ornament bowed to the Asakura leaf.
"......" looked at her politely, Asakura Ye frowned, squinted his eyes, and observed without saying a word.
"What's wrong?" Saten, who noticed that Asakura Ha's expression was not quite right, and thought that he wanted to do something to his friend, asked with a slight frown.
"Nothing. I just think I've seen her somewhere. β
After hearing Ma Cangye's answer, Zuo Tian laughed a few times, then squinted at him and said, "Ah Ye, your accosting technique is too outdated. The early spring ornament next to him put his hand to his mouth and smiled secretly, not as unconcealed as Zuotian's tears.
It's the same guy from yesterday. But it looks like the memory has been modified. Asakura Ye is sure that the Hatsuharu ornament in front of her is the person who was held hostage yesterday, but her memory at that time has been modified by Aresta, so it is understandable that she does not know herself.
Forget it. If she still remembers what happened at that time, I'm afraid I'll be annoyed again. At the same time, it doesn't matter what I think.
"Maybe I'm mistaken. Asakura Ye curled his hair, then pretended to be embarrassed to answer, and introduced himself: "My name is Asakura Ye, just call me Ah Ye." β
"Hmm. Chu Chun nodded in response, indicating that he understood.
"By the way, do you want to eat here?" After looking at the price on the menu and finding that it was not at all the price he could pay, Zuo Tian couldn't help but shudder with tears.
Tonight she wanted to celebrate the early spring of the discharge of the hospital so she came out to eat, when she just met Ma Cangye, she did thank him for saving herself today and invited him to eat, of course, she who had seen his appetite, would only invite him to eat one piece of food. But if he wants to be in this shop, then she has to choose to invite him next time, after all, she can't even afford the cheapest dish here.
"I'm hesitating. Do you have anything to introduce?" Looking at the menu, the food on it did whet his appetite, but considering that he was new to the city, he decided to ask Saten Tears to hear her opinion from someone who had been here for several years.
"Absolutely. Hatsuharu and I were going there. Is Ah Ye going to go with you?" After hearing Asakura Ye's words, Saten grinned with tears.
"It doesn't matter. With Asakura Ye's consent, the three of them went to the place she was talking about under the leadership of Saten Tears.
Just as they were heading to their destination, two people stood in a dark corner, and one of them asked, "What did you call me here for?" Although the two did not seem to be much hostile, the man's tone was full of distrust and vigilance, and his eyes were fixed on his every move, in case the other party made a move, so that he could immediately fight back.
"Don't be so wary of me. I just want to work with you. The person who was so vigilant by him sighed helplessly, his eyes revealed a friendly look, and he opened his hands to show that he absolutely wanted to harm him, and then said with a harmless face: "After all, the time for me to snatch the ability has not been reset." β
"Hmph. Let's talk about this with the group of people who trusted you and were robbed of your body before. His friendly look was snorted coldly by the other party's disdain, and said sarcastically: "We all came out of hell, and all we believe in is the law of the jungle, and those boring and hypocritical ones still don't say a word." β
As a former companion, would he still not know the past achievements of the person in front of him? Those who trusted him had already become part of his power, so he was reluctant to stay alone with him, not only he thought so, it should be said that all those who knew his ability did not want to stay with him, so after the sarcasm, he stared at him with an expression of saying something quickly, and I will leave if it was okay.
"Do you want to solve the helper that the witch slayer found right now?" he didn't show any dissatisfaction after being sarcastically ridiculed by the other party, but continued to maintain his harmless smile.
"Absolutely. The man looked at him, then glanced at him and said, "If you want to choose a partner to work with, I think I can find anyone to work with is much better than you." β
"Don't worry. Don't worry, I'll fight with the clam and the fisherman for profit. I genuinely seek to cooperate with you. Looking at the other party's completely distrustful eyes, a faint white light appeared on the man's hand, which was filled with dense golden words, and then handed it to the other party.
"It's ..... Soul Contract!" The man said in shock after taking the piece of paper.
"Hmm. Needless to say, you know what that piece of paper does. β
"Hmm. The man read the contents of the contract at a glance, and after confirming that the other party had not set himself up, he looked up at him again, but this time there was no disdain or distrust in his eyes before, but an affirmation.
The soul contract is to use your soul as a bargaining chip to trade with others or seek cooperation, because it is a soul transaction, so it is not limited by the body, and no one can destroy, modify, or violate the content of the contract.
Even if you have the ability to divide the soul into several, dozens, hundreds..... can't escape the effect of this contract, because even if the soul is divided, there is a certain connection, and there are countless traversers who have been self-righteous in this regard, and pay a painful price, because the contract is signed by the soul, so when you are thinking about how to drill the loophole, it will also fill the loophole, so that both parties can get justice.
The bloody past history has made many people unconsciously retreat after seeing it, so the soul contract has become the ultimate and best way for all traversers to win the trust of each other.
"If it's all right, sign it. β
"Hmm. After confirming the contents again, it was harmless to himself, and it could even be said that he had benefited completely unilaterally, and the man immediately nodded and signed the contract, and two marks appeared on the white paper, which was the signature they used to sign the contract. After all, the name can be changed at any time, but the soul can't.
After the two marks were imprinted, the blank paper disappeared, proving that the contents of the contract had taken effect, and after sensing the effect of the soul contract, the man opened his mouth and asked, "What do you want me to do?" The tone was not the same impatience as before, but a kind of intimacy that a friend hadn't seen for many years.
"I want you to be able to control a group of people with your abilities. β
"Control a group of people?" I thought that he used the soul contract to seek cooperation with him because he wanted to make himself do something more difficult, but he didn't expect that he would just let himself use his ability to help him control a group of people, which made him a little unexpected.
"Do you want those people who are controlled by me to deal with that helper?" Thinking that the other party wanted to control a group of people to deal with Asakura Ha, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. If he dared to answer yes, then he would have to re-evaluate the companion they saw as the most dangerous of all.
Because this idea is too naΓ―ve at all, if he is still in his heyday, it is absolutely okay to control a LV5 with all his might, but now his strength has not recovered, and he can only barely control a group of ordinary people, and he doesn't think that a group of ordinary people will be the opponent of a person who has just experienced the world of Hokage.
"I'm not asking them to deal with the helper, I'm holding the Guardian back. β
"Hahahaha....." After listening to his words, the man clutched his stomach and laughed: "Are you joking? That guardian came to this world in the way of a heroic spirit, his strength has not been weakened for some reason, and because he is a guardian, when dealing with humans, he has an absolute advantage, even if he encounters an enemy that the other party can't do, the world will strengthen his combat effectiveness... You actually want to.... No more.... Let me catch my breath first. Hahaha...."
"That's why I just said just let them delay for a while and give you a chance to deal with that helper. Looking at the breathless appearance of the person in front of him, he said with a serious face and without confusion.
"You're not kidding. Let the average person deal with a Guardian?.... It's really not a joke!" Holding back his laughter, he looked at him seriously, and said in surprise after realizing that he was not joking to amuse himself.
"I'm certainly not kidding. He took out an mp3 from his pocket, then nodded and said, "This is my modified fantasy master, which can probably make an ordinary person have LV3 or LV4 superpowers, you only need to control the maximum limit of ordinary people you can control." β
"You mean to take advantage of the Guardians to deal with those superpowers, and then let me deal with that helper?"
"You can let the people who are controlled deal with the helper. If not, it's not too late for you to go into battle yourself. He pointed to the street not far away, and the man looked in the direction he was pointing, and found that in a restaurant a few blocks away, the three of them were sitting talking and laughing.
"If it's too far away, I can't control it at the same time. "His control ability is limited, and he doesn't have the extra power to use too many times now, so it's better to control it all at once.
"I understand. Behind this wall is a place where the police used to hold some thugs, and there are about two dozen people in it, which should be your limit. He nodded in understanding, then patted the wall behind him, signaling that he could exert control over the space inside.
"And then?" Even if they controlled the people in there, if they didn't hear the fantasy master, even if they controlled it, it would be useless.
"This person is LV3 coordinate transfer. The MP3 on his right hand suddenly disappeared and appeared on his left hand, and then explained, "If you are at a distance, you can cross a wall without a problem." β
After listening to his words, the man put his hand on the wall, activated his ability, and after tens of seconds, nodded at him and said, "Hmm. It's all under my control. Even though he couldn't see it, he was able to give orders to the group inside.
After hearing his words, the MP3 in his hand disappeared: "Just wait for them to listen to the fantasy master, and then it's fine." β
"Are you sure that the Guardian will come?" asked him as he waited, worried that his future plans would be discovered by Wang Yue, so as to stop himself from the other party, Asakura Ha.
"Yes. I'll let him come. His concern was met with a confident nod from the other party.
"You asked him to come?"
"Hmm. This person and Shirai Kuroko are both members of the Discipline Commission.,It's just that the place of work is different.,Before, because of the relationship between similar abilities.,So we discussed with each other.,As long as I call her and tell her about the things here.,By the way, tell her that the early spring ornament is in danger.,Then she will definitely come over.,And Mikoto Misaka also has a great chance to come with him to help.,The master is here.,Do you think that guardian will not come?"
took out his phone from his pocket, shook it proudly, and reminded him: "By the way, you have to be careful for a while, don't let those people attack me." β
β.... You probably didn't plan to get that guardian's body, did you?" I thought the other party was planning to enter Mikoto Misaka's network with their gang, and then take the opportunity to get more information about that guardian, and finally take advantage of his unpreparedness to seize his body.
"I'm not interested in that kind of human body at all. The other party laughed, saying that his guess was wrong.
'My purpose is the reincarnation who has infinite possibilities. At the same time, he thought in his heart that in his eyes, the so-called companion in front of him was no different from a dead man, and the reason why he did this was to let himself enter his circle, so that he could read more memories of Asakura Ye so that he could take his body for himself.
