By now, the cause and effect of the incident were largely clear.

Guildres had been trying to resurrect Joan of Arc for hundreds of years, and for this reason he began to learn the forbidden knowledge, and he must have studied other evil spells after him. However, his starting point was very high, and the Oblivion City Sect could not help him fulfill his wishes, and other magic such as spiritism naturally could not do it, so his attempts failed.

And the reason for this is because Joan of Arc's soul was forcibly detained by Naru, and you have created a powerful legion of light according to the methods of the Heroic Warriors. Then it is self-evident why Guildres would now seek a deal with Mephisto.

"Mephisto is a devil monarch who specializes in soul trading, and the devil has always been in opposition to God in widespread legend, so you think he can help you find Joan of Arc's soul and help you resurrect her. I guess I'm not wrong with that, right?"

"Absolutely. Guildreis nodded generously and admitted, "This is the best way I can think of, and it's also the last way, so I won't give up no matter what." ”

"What's more, a contract has been signed between me and him, and once the devil's contract is established, neither he nor I will have any room to go back. So when you say that Mephisto asked you to retrieve the Rubik's Cube, I don't believe it at all. ”

"But..."Guildlaisse's big eyes narrowed slightly, "I know you're strong, so I'm not willing to fight you until I have to, so... Why don't we all treat this as if it didn't happen and leave happily?"

Evenson really hesitated when he said that. Guildreth is different from other dark wizards, he has lived on the world for hundreds of years, he must have mastered a lot of non-magic in order to resurrect Joan of Arc for such a long time, and the attitude of the princess of hell to him is also very noteworthy.

Although this princess has always maintained her dignity in front of him, it is not difficult to see that he is very jealous of Guildres when he carefully observes her words and deeds. So it is no exaggeration to say that Guildres can definitely afford to be the strongest dark wizard in the world.

Of course, this is not enough to make Evenson feel afraid of him, after all, once Evenson gets serious, even if he can fight back and forth with Hela, the goddess of death, Gildereth is not more powerful than Hela. Besides, this wasn't the weird prison space, and Evenson could call someone else over to help.

Whether it is the Supreme Room or the Ancient One or the Ereda Twins, as long as one of them is willing to do so, then facing Guildres is definitely a sure win. So the primary consideration now is not the probability of winning the battle, but the necessity of this battle.

It is true that Evenson came this time because he accepted Mephisto's request, but this time there was no contract, and the other party did not promise any tangible benefits. Fighting for the sake of nothing to gain is what Evenson hates the most.

However, if Guildreis's proposal was accepted and left, Evenson felt very unwilling. Because the matter has been so suspicious so far, if Mephisto had asked Evenson to reclaim the Rubik's Cube was a reversal, as Guildreis suggests, then such a thing would not have happened.

The restrictive nature of the devil's contract is actually valid for both parties, and the devil of hell will indeed leave loopholes in the contract to expand his own interests, or find ways to make it more difficult for the other party to complete the contract, and thus obtain high compensation.

But there can be no direct and clear act of repentance. Because in doing so, Mephisto would undoubtedly impose the charge of breach of contract on his head, and then it would be him who would make the reparations. This kind of behavior would be regarded as a great shame even by ordinary little devils, let alone Mephisto as the devil's monarch.

But then again, it occurred to Evenson that there was no direct conversation between him and Mephisto, but through an intermediary. So, could it be that someone used Mephisto's name to calculate himself and the old devil together?

Or, as the Devil Monarch, Mephisto has mastered the way to evade the punishment mechanism even if he directly violates the contract. Well... Either of these possibilities intrigued Evenson.

What's more, the things involved in this matter, and the existence that makes Evenson even more unable to let go, since this matter seems to have no benefits, then why not find a way to further participate and let the benefits it creates? From the first year of the Common Era to the present, how many high-quality souls has that automated program collected? Evenson really wants to take a serious inventory.

"Your Excellency the Demon Marshal..."Evenson suddenly made a very embarrassed expression, "You have to understand that the commission I accepted this time is not so easy to refuse, don't get me wrong, I don't want to do anything with you, I just thought if you can, can you repeat the content of the contract you signed with Mephisto, so that I can go back and say that it is better to listen to him." ”

"Hmm... That's fine. "Guildreis touched his chin and thought for a long time, as long as he explained the rest clearly, let him understand that he would not and could not give up, he would be able to retreat" Guildreis and Mephisto agreed that Guildreis would help Mephisto open the gates of hell on earth, and in return, Mephisto would retrieve Joan of Arc's soul. ”

“... Just that short?" Evenson wondered about the length of the contract, and Guildreth nodded affirmatively, "It's unprecedentedly short for the Devil's Contract. ”

In order to hide loopholes and traps, the revision of the devil's contract is generally very complicated, just like the contract of the last Mephisto settlement in the world, which was thrown out more than ten meters long, and it took a whole night of review to be completed. But the content of this contract is only a short sentence, and there are no additional clauses, which is very abnormal.

And... After carefully reading the contents of this contract in his heart, Evenson's expression became very strange, "Your Excellency, Marshal, are you sure that what you just said is the original text of the contract, and there is no missing word in the middle, right?"

"Not at all, that's the original text of the contract. Guildres shook his head and reassured.

This made Evenson's expression even more weird, he realized that this contract was not without loopholes, but because of the existence of this loophole, it was so incredible. Seeing Evenson's expression, his face twitched unnaturally, and then he silently tilted his head to the side.

"Your Excellency, Marshal. Evenson walked around the room, "I have to warn you that this contract, though brief, hides a very large hole in it. ”

"Oh?" said Guildreis, looking at Evenson warily, "I'd like to hear it." ”

"The first clause of this contract, Guildreis wants to help Mephisto open the gates of hell on earth, according to this clause, it does not directly indicate what method you want to use to open the gates of hell, it can be the Rubik's Cube in your hand, or something else, so Mephisto's act of letting me retrieve a Rubik's Cube is not a breach of contract. ”

It turned out to be like this, there was no calculation and no use, and it was not that he had mastered the know-how of the punishment mechanism, but that this was not a breach of contract at all, but the biggest problem at present was not this.

"I see. Guildreis nodded, "That's to make it more difficult for me, but this Rubik's Cube I ordered someone to create is the most convenient way to open the gates of hell, and you are the only way I know, and I can't let you take it away." ”

"That's not the crux of the matter, it's not a problem anymore. Evenson stopped and looked at Guildreis and said, "The contract just says that you will help Mephisto open the gates of hell, and it doesn't require you to succeed, does it?"

"It's... What do you mean?" Gilderes glared, and the pair of eyeballs rolled rapidly.

"That means," Evenson scratched his head, he didn't believe that this kind of thing could happen, "you just signed the contract, all you need to do is look up to the sky and let out a long roar, I, Guildreis, have done my best to help Mephisto open the gates of hell, and then even if you don't do anything, or think a little in your head, the obligations of the contract to you will be completed." ”

"But... If that's what it looks like..."Guildres suddenly looked shocked, his first thought was that there were such a big loophole in this contract, it could be the condition of Joan of Arc's soul, and there was also the possibility of opportunism.

"There is no room for manipulation in Article 2 of the Contract. Evenson shook his head and said, "Mephisto's search for Joan of Arc's soul does not contain any ambiguous words, it is a clause that must be enforced, and the only thing that can be vague is that he did not agree on a specific time." ”

"So as far as I can see, there is only one loophole in this contract, and this loophole is entirely beneficial to you, but it limits Mephisto to death. ”

"How... It's going to be like this..."Guildres was completely incredulous. It stands to reason that the loopholes in this contract are very obvious, and with his ingenuity, as long as he is willing to calm down and read it a few times, he can completely see it.

But the bad thing is that she takes this contract too seriously, no, it should be that he takes Joan of Arc's soul too seriously, and he regards the resurrection of Joan of Arc as the greatest sorrow in this life. Therefore, he regarded everything related to it as extremely important, and did not dare to have the slightest idea of opportunism.

Therefore, under this psychological effect, he has subconsciously ignored this loophole.

"Devils are good at leaving loopholes in contracts, and if he wants to, it will be easy to reverse the profit side and leave a loophole that is clearly beneficial to me. "But why did he do this? Not only did he make the deal unprofitable, but she lost a lot of money according to the terms of the deal." ”

"Who knows..."Evenson couldn't determine Mephisto's thoughts, "unless it's because this contract is in his best interest, you can do the best to open the gates of hell, and even if you can't do it, it doesn't matter, all he needs is this contract." ”

"What's so important about this contract..."Guildles suddenly narrowed his eyes, and saw the princess of hell Farina, who had been silently walked aside, this one who had the closest relationship with Mephisto, maybe he could tell what his father was thinking, not to mention that looking at her now, he must know something, "Your Royal Highness, do you have anything you want to explain?"

"Hmm..."Falina turned her head and glanced left and right with her eyes, "I... Do you have to say it?"

"Her Royal Highness the Princess, of course, has the right to remain silent. Besides, we've been friends for so long—" Guildlaiss rubbed his hands together and showed a very kind expression, "You must know very well how many ways there are for a beautiful woman to confide in me. ”

"It's nothing, I don't have a good relationship with my father. Farina immediately shook her head, "How can this be said... The devil likes to make deals with humans and make contracts, in addition to getting the most rewards and having fun, because the devil can gain power from the contract itself. ”

"A large part of the reason my father was able to come and go so often without anyone noticing him was that too many people had contracts with him. ”

This answer does not seem to be comprehensive. Guildles groaned, and then asked, "You have not yet answered why your father was so kind to me, leaving a hole in the contract so favorable to me." ”

"Uh..."Farina's expression froze, "Well... On the day of the martyrdom of Joan of Arc, my father went back to hell and made a room in hell for everyone who framed Joan of Arc, from the bishop to the king and even to the pope. And after they moved in, he also welded the door himself. ”

"And for a long time after that... He didn't stop chanting Joan of Arc, and the expression on his face was something I had never seen before, so at that time, both I and Witchheart guessed that we might have another one called Joan of Arc in the future... Mommy... You get the idea, I mean?"

What is there that anyone with a normal IQ does not understand? It is nothing more than that Mephisto has a love affair with Joan of Arc, and he himself wants to recover Joan of Arc's soul and resurrect it, and this contract with Guildreis is simply a fig leaf to cover up his idea!

"Ahhhh

Evenson was instantly sympathetic, went up and patted him on the shoulder, and said with sincerity: "Murphy old thief has lost his conscience, I will live and die with the marshal! I am on your side from the bottom of my heart!"
