Chapter 25: Talking about the collapse
(Thank you for the support of the monthly pass of 150***580!Happy Ladies and Goddess Day!)
"Is there anything more important than fighting?" said Gerald, who said in a bad tone, but he didn't make the first move.
Charlotte threw the bait unhurriedly, "Is it more important for Your Majesty to fight with us here with a trace of consciousness than to overthrow the gods on top?"
Gerald raised a red brow, but the killing intent was constricting, "Oh? It seems that the rumors are true, you are already planning to declare war with the gods?
"I'm sorry, but His Majesty Emmanuel doesn't seem to want to be the leader of the alliance, so we have to trade with you to secure victory. β
"Charlotte, huh? You're so big-mouthed, and in your eyes I'm just a replacement for that old guy at Emmanuel?"
Charlotte was not afraid, "But when a normal person chooses two peerless artifacts, they won't choose the more powerful artifact, but it hurts others and hurts themselves, right?"
He praised it a little, and it worked, and his words made Gerald laugh heartily, "It's a bit biased, but the metaphor of hurting others and hurting oneself is really good! Charlotte, it seems that although you have a vague understanding, you have not understood it thoroughly enough. You said that Emmanuel refused to be the leader of the alliance, but I don't believe it at all! Sylvia is in danger, can that old guy still nest in his own nest? Presumably he has some bad idea, so I can wait and see what he will do!"
Charlotte had also considered this matter a while ago, and he was relieved to hear Gerald say this.
However, the established plan will not change, and Charlotte continued to ask, "Then Your Majesty, are you interested?"
"What do you say?" Gerald asked rhetorically, by this time, the original tense atmosphere had long since eased, "but even if you are interested, what can you do? The rules between the root and the main material realm are still there, plus Sylvia's seal......
Finally, he smiled and asked, "Charlotte, are you going to help me?"
"Yes. β
"Oh, interesting, you really made a clear choice. Gerald laughed and said, "In what form and when are you going to help me?" he leaned over to Charlotte and asked, "Don't tell me it's now." β
Gerald grinned maliciously with the success of the prank.
Charlotte thought that in a way, Gerald was the most unscrupulous king. But the truth told him that he wanted to go wrong!
Thinking about it, how terrifying Gerald's determination and wisdom must be to be able to become the king of the roots, and to suppress the chaotic nature of the abyss demon and become the king. In just a few words, this abyssal overlord saw through Charlotte's mind, and instead drove Charlotte to a dead end.
It's tougher than she thought!" Charlotte thought to herself. But it is still believed that there is a strong chance of success.
"Of course it can't be now. Charlotte replied without flinching.
"If you can't help me out of trouble, how can I help you? The enemy is a god on high, and a mere projection can't turn the tide. β
"I don't need your projection body for help. Charlotte replied, "I only need to open a power node so that you can channel the power of the abyss into the land of the gods, Erru. As long as I destroy Erru's defense mechanism, there will be a lot of people who will help me for their own desires. β
Gerald laughed again, but this time with a clear mockery.
"Joke! Do you think you'll win that way? You underestimate the gods and the three emperors of the empire!"
"I don't need victory!" Charlotte retorted a little annoyed, but still retorted in a calm tone, "Don't forget, I never wanted victory, just to save Sylvia!"
He interrupted the laughter, and Gerald was not annoyed, but sneered coldly, "You can't do it, Clayderman visionalist! You are as innocent and ridiculous as your ancestor, and Teacher Iger!Oh! By the way, I remember a saying thatβ"
Gerald leaned into Charlotte's ear and whispered maliciously, "You and that Evan are likely to be the reincarnation of Lusen? β
Charlotte frowned angrily and fought back word by word, "When you were delusional about stealing the roots, there must have been many guys who scolded you for being a dreamer!"
Gerald burst out with terrifying killing intent in an instant, making Claire, who thought it was a collapse, subconsciously raised Iger's scepter. But soon, the killing intent disappeared in an instant, and Gerald let out a boring saliva.
"Hmph! He turned to Claire, "Little junior brother over there, do you want to take revenge on me?"
Charlotte shook her head at Claire and continued, "And Your Majesty, you don't need to keep tempting me. I've made up my mind that I can be honest with my bottom line. I'm not stupid enough to help you come into this world in advance, completely uncontrolled! after all, there's no guarantee that an explosive without a lead will explode in my hands or in the midst of an enemy. I can make a soul, abyss, and even root pact with you, promising to help you get out of the abyss when it is done, but only if you give me the necessary help. β
"Hmph!" Gerald snorted, "You're a good idea, if you fail, everything will be over, and if you succeed, you'll pay the benefits." When Sylvia is out of trouble, of course, you don't have to worry about helping me or not. Such a simple ploy, do you think I'm going to be fooled?"
"Listening to your tone, it seems that you can't win against my sister?" Charlotte had a playful smile on her face, "Ah! That's no wonder! After all, all the strong people, including you, have been fooled by my sister for thousands of years, and still only think that she is a thousand-year-old legend." It's human nature that you'll be worried and scared, but you didn't expect the Lord of the Darkness and the King of the Root of Destruction to ......"
"Is that enough?" Gerald's voice grew cold. You can see that he is really angry, "Do you feel proud to provoke me with boring agitation? Charlotte Clayderman, I have to say, you are the only daring person I have ever seen in my life. β
"Shut up, now you have only two options!" he said coldly, "One, as I said, help me come now, I promise to help you fight the gods, and two, as the price of angering me, I will use this stupid and funny altar as a node to descend on the projection body at any cost, and let you know the great power gap between the Root King and you. β
The wind continued, and there was no sound in the Gobi except for the wind. Inuit couldn't help but swallow his saliva, thinking from the bottom of his heart that he hoped that Gerald would be out of trouble at this time, but not on the premise of provoking him.
The power of the Demon Lord, he only truly grasped today. Inuit thought to herself that Charlotte had really pushed herself to a dead end.
However, there are always surprises in this world.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but I'm still sticking to my conditions!"
Charlotte's articulate voice pierced through the howling wind.
