Book 1: The Believer of Light Chapter 82: The Meeting of Fate

Previous Chapter

"What are you. Before Tom could ask a question, Casse on the side was the first to ask. "Tom hasn't seen you for a long time. The man ignored the plug and took off his hood, revealing his true face. "Is that you?" Tom let go, he sat back in his seat, and then said to the mysterious man, "I don't know why your Excellency is here?" "Why, you don't want to admit it, Tom?" asked Tanatos with a smile.

"Who the hell are you, and how dare you talk to my boss like this?" At this moment, Casse has completely entered the role of Tom's little brother, and seeing that Thanatos is actually disrespectful to Tom, Kasai immediately reprimanded him.

"Tom, looking for a little brother needs to find some discerning people. With a wave of his hand, Kase was like a kite with a broken string, directly blown to the wall by a strong wind, and his life and death were uncertain.

Tom's expression remained unchanged, and he sat in his seat, as steady as the Anties Mountains, "Lord Tanatos, if you ask me for something, you can tell me directly, as long as I can help." "It's simple, I'm here to help you. Tanotos smiled and sat down where he had been sitting in front of Kase, and then said to Jack beside Tom, "Please pour me a glass of water, I have walked a long way, and I am a little thirsty." ”

"Help me?" Tom's expression was a little playful, "Speaking of helping me, I still need to thank my lord here." If it weren't for the help of adults, we wouldn't have been able to escape Little Rock. Tom stood up and bowed deeply to Tanatos.

"Since Mistress Tom remembers my help to adults, then everything is easy to say. If Mistress Tom is willing, then please let me help you unify the Chaos Lands. "Thanatos is not shocking. "Help me unify the Chaos Lands?" Tom, who had just sat down, was startled again. "Don't you have that in mind, why are you collecting these little minions?" asked Tanatos, puzzled.

"I did have the idea and had a preliminary plan, but the situation in the Troublelands was far more complicated than I thought, so I was a little unsure if I could unify the Chaoslands. Tom was very honest about his thoughts. "Well, it's nice if you think so. After all, I don't want the person I assist to be an idiot. "Thanatos spoke very directly.

"So, what do adults want?" Since the other person wants to help him, then it is impossible to ask for nothing else. "Quite simply, after unifying the Lands of Chaos, I hope that one day in the future, you will be able to help someone. As for who it is, I won't tell you now. In short, you will know later, and it will not hurt you. Thanatos spoke his mind.

Tom tapped on the table, but didn't speak. Thanatos didn't speak, urging himself. There was a momentary silence in the room.

"Boss Tom, I brought people back, absolutely unscathed. Suddenly, Carl's excited voice outside the room shattered the eerie silence. In a hurry, Carl took the lead and walked in, followed by his younger brother, and Jace, who looked a little sluggish but in good condition, accompanied by three of Jack's friends. Jack glanced at Tom and Tanatos, who didn't make the slightest move, and then ran to Jace's side and asked, "How is it?"

"I don't have any problems, I'm just a little tired. Jace said with some weakness. During this period of abduction by Carl's group of thugs, because of his status as a magician, Carl did not act rough with Jace, but he did not make Jace feel better, because he wanted Jace to be obedient, Carl forced Jace to not sleep, and arranged two beautiful women to lure him, wanting Jace to have a nervous breakdown.

"Alright, you two hurry up and take Jace back to his room to rest. Jack said to the little brother in front of him. "Brother, what's going on, why did Master Casse faint?" Karl, who noticed something strange about the atmosphere in the room, asked Jack. "I don't know what's going on, so we'd better not talk. Jack didn't put up any shelves this time, and said directly in a low voice. "Good...... Good...... Okay......" Carl said a few good words, and then followed Jack and led Jace to the backyard.

As soon as he was disturbed by Carl and a few people, Tom no longer stopped talking, but went straight to the point and said his conditions, "Lord Tanatos, I know that you are a powerful person, and it is easy to crush someone like me, but I also have my dignity." I hope that the adults can agree to a few small conditions for me, and then I will serve the adults wholeheartedly. ”

"Since it is cooperation, then the conditions can be mentioned. Thanatos looked relaxed, and seemed not afraid of what Tom would ask of him. "In that case, I hope your lord will agree to my conditions. Tom looked straight and said, "One, I hope that the adults will not interfere with my decision. Although I know that this condition is very harsh, and adults should be able to interfere as supporters, but I don't like to be disciplined by others, so I ask you to agree. If the adults can't agree, the rest of the conditions don't need to be talked about. ”

"No problem. Tom looked at Thanatos in surprise, he didn't expect Thanatos to agree directly, without even a little bit of bargaining. "Tom, I have only one request, and that is to offer your loyalty, and as long as I have this, I can grant you whatever you ask. There is nothing in this plane that I cannot do. Tanatos smiled confidently.

Hearing Thanatos's words, Tom was not only not happy, but a little nervous, he knew that the more rewards, the more risks he would take, the more he would have to pay, after all, there was no free lunch in the world. Now that Tanatos only needs to show his loyalty, then it means that there will definitely be a dilemma waiting for him in the future.

"Don't worry about me hurting you, it won't do me any good. Thanatos seemed to see Tom's concern and said with a smile.

"Hmm. But Tom wasn't entirely convinced, and he began to move on to his other conditions, "Second, if there's something that jeopardizes my safety, I can say no. After Tom said this, he stopped, he needed to wait for Thanatos' reply.

"Hmm. Hearing Tom's answer, Thanatos hesitated, after all, who knows what will happen in the future. "All I can say is that in the future you will give up your honor and faith, and if nothing else, your name will be safe. Tanatos shrugged. In this case, it is up to Tom whether he wants to believe it or not, and if he does not agree, he has other candidates.

"Well, I promise, the other conditions are no longer relevant compared to these two items. Tom, after hearing Thanatos' answer, agreed straight and neatly.

"Since Lord Tom has agreed, let me go and meet someone. Thanatos stood up, and a portal that flashed purple and black lightning was opened. Tom hesitated for a moment as he looked at the portal that he didn't know where it leads, and when he saw that Tanatos had already walked in, Tom gritted his teeth and walked in.

On the Holy Mountain, in Arthur's room. Arthur sat on a chair in a loose robe, drinking tea alone, and in front of him there were two cups of freshly brewed tea, as if he was waiting for someone.

Suddenly, a black light flashed in the calm room, and a terrified Tom followed Thanatos to Arthur. "It's you. "Tom knew Arthur when he was in Little Rock, and he made a big impression on Tom at that time. After all, it was somewhat surprising for a prince to serve as a paladin in a religion that was not popular with the royal family.

"I didn't expect that the person chosen by Tanatos turned out to be you. Arthur was also a little surprised, originally thought that Tanatos would surprise him, but he didn't expect it to be someone he had met. For Tom, Arthur was also impressed, after all, he was able to contain the barbarian Great Chief alone in the chaos of the army, which is enough to show Tom's strength.

"My master, this is my master's choice, he is now in the Land of Chaos, as long as he can unify the Land of Chaos, then it will be a great help to the master in the future. Thanatos said.

"Well, I'll listen to you. Now that my status makes me unable to act for the time being, it is up to you to decide what is out there, and when I return to the Kingdom, I will make the Holy See pay for what they have done. ”

Tom stood stunned, looking at Arthur and Tanatos. Although the identity of Tanatos is still not very clear, Tom knows that the energy of Tanatos is definitely the supreme existence on the continent of Elda, and such an existence is actually a servant of the prince of the kingdom, such a situation is beyond Tom's cognition.

"Tom, this is my master, Prince Arthur, and since you and your master already know each other, I will not introduce you again. Now, in the presence of my master, I need to sign a contract with you, as long as I have this one. Then I will help you unify the lands of chaos in the future. Thanatos took a parchment scroll from his bosom and handed it to Tom.

Slowly opening the scroll, I saw words that I couldn't read at all, but miraculously, the meaning of these words came to Tom's mind clearly. As long as you sign this contract, then you can master the supreme power, you can unify the chaotic land, and you can dominate the entire Elda continent.

Without hesitation, Tom bit his finger directly, and a drop of crystal clear blood fell on the scroll, and it was instantly sucked in. Like Tom, Thanatos squeezed a little blood out of his fingertips and dripped it onto the scroll.

When the two drops of blood fused together, the scroll erupted with brilliant light, and then suddenly set itself on fire, and a mysterious inscription appeared in the air. With a tap of Tanatos, the inscription split into two parts, one following Tanatos' finger and merging into his body, and the other imprinted on Tom's forehead.

"You may be seated. Seeing that the pact had been made, Arthur invited Tom to sit down. Tom was not polite, and sat down directly opposite Arthur, picked up the glass of water on the table and drank it.
