Chapter 56: Persuasion
With a slight movement of her footsteps and a slight change in the angle of her shield, Faust's claws glide across the smooth surface of the shield.
Faust's strength and speed seemed useless in front of her.
"It's amazing. Faust was amazed - because of Tossaka's blood, he could gain the opponent's transformation ability for a short time, while still maintaining his sanity.
This caused a strange phenomenon where, after a high-intensity battle, not only did he not decrease his combat effectiveness due to the depletion of his strength, but rather increased.
However, his performance now is not as good as when he faced Tosaka before. Tosaka was strong, but Faust could defeat him with a little tactic.
Zhannath is different.
Faust had tried to influence Zhanas's mind, but she wasn't affected at all—to be precise, interference directly with psychic energy didn't work, and hints mixed with words and gestures were still useful.
Considering the inexplicable emotions that Faust had after seeing Zhanas, that is to say, Zhanas is not only immune to psychic influences like Faust, but can also have an impact on Faust's psyche in turn!
Faust couldn't help but have a headache, he was not the type who would never allow others to restrain himself. But he still wants to be friends with his natural enemies rather than destroy them.
Faust maintained a high-speed blow, and his physical strength also increased significantly after his transformation, and he still didn't feel tired after continuing to attack for so long.
This high frequency of attacks allows Zhanas to be on the defensive all the time, and it is difficult to damage Faust with occasional counterattacks.
Faust also thought about suppressing Zhanas like this until he exhausted her. However, looking at Zhannasi's calm and relaxed appearance, it is obvious that the physical exertion is not too large, and it is really difficult to say which of the two will drag down first.
Zhanas is immune to psychic interference, and on a physical level, Faust is difficult to defeat without harming Zhanas. As a result, the battle reached a stalemate - Faust was unable to take down his opponent, and Zhanas struggled to organize an effective counterattack.
"Surrender, Miss Zhannas. Faust's throat has mutated, but he still has many ways to speak—for example, he now uses the Spirit Scarlet as his mouthpiece.
"You see, there is no contradiction between us," Faust tried to get Zhanas to surrender voluntarily, "The only contradiction between the two of us is the dead retinue, if you marry me, you will be the mistress of Marula's territory, and you can be in charge of all the servants in our mansion......"
"Shut up!" Faust's words had the opposite effect, and Zhannath was not moved by his reasonable proposal, but became even more disgusted with him, "I hate you most of all!"
As Zhannath suddenly became agitated, her pace of battle changed slightly—the steady and tight defense began to show flaws, but when Faust rushed over, he realized that it was a trap. Faust suffered a few times, and the round shield left several large wounds on his arms.
However, Zhanas's aggressiveness was not without a price, her helmet had been knocked off by Faust, one shoulder was high and swollen, and her movements had become much stiffer.
The injury cooled Zhannasi's excitement a lot, and her fighting style became conservative again, not even the occasional counterattack, and focused on defense.
Sure enough, the verbal attack was still effective. Faust can still guess what girls of this age are thinking—they despise reason, and take pride in their sensibilities, believing from the bottom of their hearts that free love has a certain divine brilliance, and is completely oblivious to married life.
Faust can provoke disgust and anger if he shows his mature and worldly side—an angry enemy is better dealt with than a calm one.
"Tosaka can't give you happiness. Faust continued to provoke Zhanas, "Have you ever thought about what will happen after you get married?" Faust paused, "No, let's think about what will happen after your relationship is exposed." ”
"Your grandfather will reprimand you, he will lock you up and send someone to hunt down Tosaka. Faust manipulated his voice to make his voice more convincing, in short, a low and steady voice.
"Hmm...... Maybe he'll grab Tosaka and kill him in front of you, leaving you in complete despair. Faust smiled, "You will be sad for a while, but your days are long, and you will always forget a dead man." ”
"Shut up, stop talk!" Zhan Nasi suddenly screamed wildly, but this time she actually held back, although her mood swings were violent, it didn't seem to affect her fighting moves and tactical awareness.
Faust, of course, would not grant her wish, and he would continue to talk trash and break down Zhannath in one fell swoop.
"You know, I'm telling the truth. Faust's voice softened, "However, we may as well assume that the two of you escaped this and managed to escape the tribe and live in the town. ”
Faust wants to destroy all hope of Zhannath and make her completely dead to Tosaka. And to destroy hope, you must first give her hope.
"You have no money on you, and you don't have a place to live. In the jungle, you can hunt for a living, but in the towns, you can't. Faust's voice gradually calmed down.
He smiled sarcastically, "You might try to work part-time and encourage each other in the first few months, believing that love can help you through all this." ”
"After a year, you have gradually adapted to life in the town, and your life has improved. Faust's tone returned to its original warmth and warmth.
"You rented a small room and bought some lovely trinkets with little money, and you thought it would be nice to live like this. Faust's tone even began to be a little pleasant.
"Happiness always comes so suddenly, you're pregnant. Faust suddenly quickened his speech, "Happiness overwhelmed Tossaka's mind, and he felt that the world had become brighter, and he had more strength to work." ”
"But, after a few months, you have to stay at home, and the burden of life is all on Tosaka's shoulders alone. Faust said calmly.
"Although life was hard, Tosaka was a strong man who could survive with two jobs. Faust continued, "But this is not the end. ”
"In a few days, your first child will be born. Faust smiled, "Congratulations, it's a lovely boy, and if he lives to adulthood, he'll be a strong laborer." ”
"However, with one more person in the family, life for your husband and wife has become less enjoyable. "You have to take care of your children, and you can only do some sewing or cleaning work, and the income is very small." ”
"Tosaka found that after you gave birth, his burden was heavier, and he didn't have enough money to spend. Faust's tone was as cold as the north wind.
"Poverty and fatigue afflict you, and you accuse each other of dragging your feet. Faust sneered twice, "If it weren't for the sake of the children, you would have gone your separate ways a long time ago." ”
"Originally, such a life could still go on - life, always stumbling. Faust pretended to understand, but his script could not have been so simple, "But, with the death of your children, everything is over." ”
"Typhoid fever, a very common disease, is prevalent every year. Faust explained, "Do you know how your children die? You have no money for medicine, so you can only watch your young children suffer from illness and die in a long, cold night." ”
"And then? ...... you?"
"Boom ......" "Enough......" Zhan Nasi suddenly threw down the round shield and knelt on the ground weakly, "Enough, don't say it anymore......"
As he spoke, waves of suggestive psychic energy calmed down, and Faust lifted his transformation and stood quietly beside Zhannath.
"I won, dear. Faust stroked Zhannath's short hair, "Reality wins." ”
