Chapter XXIII
It was only at this time that Inuit had the shadow of those who had gone mad and destroyed the world.
Seeing that the success aroused the interest of the other party, Charlotte struck while the iron was hot, "But if we want to break my sister's seal and reverse the inhibition between the abyss and the main material realm at the same time, we will definitely not be able to do it alone, I wonder if Lord Inuit has any way to contact the Lord of Black? This matter is inseparable from the cooperation of the Lord of Black himself." ”
He wasn't stupid enough to tell Inuit that he was just going to give Gerald a blank check right now.
But Inuit quickly recovered from that frenzy, coughed, said 'gaffe,' and soon returned to his original sane state, but his eyes were still hard to hide his frenzy. As if he wanted to get rid of the influence of his current fanatical mentality, he did not answer Charlotte's question immediately, but chose to pour Charlotte and Elle a bottle of red wine.
He seems to be cooling himself down in this way.
By the time he poured the wine for the two of them, his emotions had all calmed down, and he sat down on the opposite side of the sofa and asked calmly, "I don't know what the Grand Duke's plan is, and for what reason do you want to liberate the Demon Lord?"
Charlotte knew that there must be a seven-point truth in information, and said calmly, "Of course I have my own reasons. You should know that it hasn't been very peaceful lately. The gods have imprisoned my sister in Erru, the land of the gods, and I want to find allies of sufficient weight to help me. And the demon lord in your mouth is also one of the root kings, so I naturally want to get his help. ”
Inuit doesn't seem to know anything about it, but she has more or less detected some of it. He pondered for a moment, noncommittal to Charlotte's reasoning, "And what is the Grand Duke's going to do?"
"I said it, because to break through the inhibition and my sister's seal at the same time, the premise of everything is to see the Lord of Darkness. ”
Inuit was silent for a while, then said slowly, "The Grand Duke actually has other plans, right?"
"Do I have to lie to you?" Charlotte asked rhetorically, "do you have anything worth my use?"
His attitude convinced Inuit, who looked at Charlotte carefully and shook his head slowly.
"That's right. Inuit smiled again, but this smile was reserved and intellectual, "Does the Grand Duke know why I want to open the door to the abyss here?"
Although she has no interest in all of his past, since she has a request, Charlotte has to be patient and put on an attitude of being willing to hear about it. But I thought to myself, if you tell me in a moment that you don't have a precise way to contact Gerald, I don't kick you into the abyss, so that you can recognize the father and son who don't know where the demon father is mingling.
"It's because @¥@!" he said with a vague name, but it was conveyed to Charlotte in the form of an idea, and the name conveyed was 'Bloomfield'. can make a legendary warlock not even dare to mention his name, which shows that the origin of this demon is not small.
And that's exactly what happened.
Charlotte had heard the demon's name. He is one of the four kings of the abyss, a higher existence than the succubus queen, and his status in the abyss is second only to Gerald, the lord of the dark, if he is analogous to a god, then he definitely has a terrifying power of this level of powerful divine power in the abyss.
At this point where others would be aware of Bloomfield's real name, it's no wonder Inuit is so cautious.
Charlotte heard the connotation, "That is, you were forced?"
"What does the Grand Duke think, although I have demonic blood in my veins, I am not so mad as to want to destroy the world, and I will not do anything that is of no benefit. Inuit looked fearful and hateful, "For some reason, I was forbidden by him and had to do what he asked." ”
Prohibition can affect a legendary warlock through the abyss, is Bloomfield good at necromancy and legal spells? But soon, he realizes the reason, and only the blood connection will make Inuit unable to resist.
"So you're his heir!"
As if he had guessed correctly, Inuit's face became very gloomy.
"Sorry for the unpleasantness. ”
"It's fine. Inuit waved his hand and drank the wine in one gulp, "so I can't resist him." If the Grand Duke does not tell me your true plans, I will not be able to accompany you. ”
The implication is that unless Charlotte liberates Gerald at this time so that Inuit can find a real backer, he will not dare to resist Bloomfield.
Charlotte was about to use words and illusions to deceive the other party, but soon, there was a shock in the sea of consciousness, and a feeling in the dark told him that this person might have something to use in the future. So when the lie on his lips was swallowed back, he picked up his glass to hide his momentary change of thinking, carefully looking for the feasibility of convincing this person.
In the end, he made up his mind to confess, "I won't release the Black Lord now, but I will make a deal with him." ”
"......" Inuit guessed Charlotte's thoughts, not just compliments or sarcasm, after only a little thought, "the Grand Duke has a good idea." ”
"yes. Charlotte knew that she couldn't hide it from him, so she simply offered the benefits directly, "So, if you are willing to assist me, it will still be of great benefit to you." First of all, my sister Sylvia is proficient in the spells of the major factions, so she can't help you lift the ban, secondly, if you can release the Black Lord and reach an agreement with him, your problem can be properly solved, and finally, if there is a chance in the future, I can't help you in this matter. ”
But what the Grand Duke said was empty words, and it did nothing to solve the urgent need. After Inuit finished speaking, she looked at Charlotte with burning eyes.
Charlotte knew that the man wanted to make a pact with him, but to be honest, in his opinion, Inuit was not qualified enough to make a pact with him.
"I know what you mean, but Lord Inuit, have you thought about it? Even if you don't cooperate with me, I will always be able to contact the Black Lord with my time. But you're different!" Charlotte pointed out pointedly, "Except that I have the ability and motivation to help you, it's hard for you to find allies in the multiverse. IMHO, you have no choice but to trust me!"
Inuit's eyes flashed with a fierce glint for a moment, but soon, the glint faded. He knew that he couldn't even see Charlotte's whereabouts at first, so naturally it was impossible to take advantage of the other party. But the madness of the demon gave him the urge to tear apart the person in his eyes, and he restrained the demonic instinct with great perseverance, and after thinking for a long time, he finally nodded heavily.
"I believe in you, Grand Duke, and I hope you don't let me down. But there's another problem. ”
"What?"
"The ritual of summoning that one cannot be abandoned, or I may never wait for the Grand Duke to fulfill his promise. ”
Charlotte thought for a moment, and also felt that the two-line operation was more deceptive, so she nodded in agreement, "No problem, if necessary, I can also send someone to assist in the operation on your side." ”
And so, the deal is done.
