Chapter 41: Childhood Memories
Just as the pure elves from the elven capital of Port Noyer were opened by the ingenuity of the happy meeting and led into the abyss, Jack, who had been locked up in a small dark room for more than a month in another world, was woken up by a friendly voice.
After research by scientists, the material made of this room is a complete insulator of magic and magic, with positive and infinite magic resistance, and Jack has been contained in this dark room in the name of protection for a month.
A few days before he was contained, he protested vigorously to get out of the place.
And a few days later, all he was thinking about cursing the traitor to Earth who had brought him to this point.
And now......
It turns out that normal human beings who stay in such places for a long time are guaranteed to have a nervous breakdown.
After the lights were turned on, the people who took Jack out felt angry at the haggard man in front of them.
His skin was pale, his eyes were blank, and he stared blankly at the doorway, looking like he had been played.
"I'm sorry for this, compatriot. We all know it's not your fault, but the evil mage has changed your memories and given you hints, and we can only protect you in this way. This new type of material can only maintain maximum magic resistance in a lightless environment. Come on, compatriots, let's go out for a walk and feel something that makes people happy. ”
It took a long time for Jack to accept that he didn't have to stay here any longer, and his godless eyes regained a little brightness.
"Damn! I don't even know what he did to me! What the hell is this!"
"Brother, you don't have to think too much, when he dies, his influence on you will naturally disappear. Now all you have to do is see a psychiatrist and wait for him to die. ”
"You've finally made up your mind to kill him, and I must be involved in this mission!"
Hearing the chief tell him to wait for the traitor's death, Jack obviously couldn't sit still, and he was sure he wanted to kill the mage more than anyone else.
However, the people who came to lead him out were not yet blinded by private relationships, and Jack's restrictions could never be lifted in the current situation.
He couldn't even get out of the shelter, let alone go to Golantia on a mission.
"No, no brother, you are in very poor health right now, and you should never leave the sanatorium for a few weeks. When you are well enough to become a combat force, can you go on a pioneering mission?"
"You're lying to me...... The way I am now is what you brought about, and you won't let me recover, and you won't let me leave! I'm going to report to my superiors, I'm going to ask my superiors for a mission!"
Jack, who had regained his senses and found his target again, made a fuss again, much to the embarrassment of the soldiers who had come to take him to the psychiatrist.
Eventually, Jack was once again locked up in a more relaxing containment chamber and placed to play again.
After a long time, as Jack was restlessly changing the TV station in the containment cell, he suddenly felt a flash of light pass through his brain, and his brain tingled uncontrollably.
"You're really smart, human. They will never let you go to Golantia, because your altered memories and hints are a destabilizing factor for them. ”
A massive humanoid monster surrounded by blazing black flames appeared out of thin air in the containment chamber, with crimson skin, large, tough red wings, twisted horns, white eyes, and long black hair.
Although it undoubtedly looked like a dangerous humanoid monster, when looking at this monster, Jack felt that its temperament seemed so knowledgeable and personable.
"What the hell are you! Guard, guard! The containment chamber has been attacked by monsters!"
"Please don't get too excited, human. You take a closer look around, it's just your spiritual world. ”
Jack hurriedly looked around, it was white and empty, and it was obvious that he had left the containment chamber...... To be precise, his consciousness left the containment chamber.
"Who the hell are you, and why are you here?"
The humanoid monster smiled politely.
"Jack, I am you, you and I are one. ”
"You liar, you devil, you must be one of those people who are happy to meet each other!
"No, I'm not a dirty, brain-dead demon. ”
The humanoid monster corrected Jack's rhetoric with seriousness.
"And I'm not complicit with the preacher, and while I do, the beast's soul is too difficult. ”
"In fact, I am the devil, a dedicated devil. ”
"The Supreme Monarch of the Nine Levels of Hell, the creator of Hellfire, and the only devil on earth, Mephistopheles Felix is at your service. ”
Seeing the devil in front of him introduce himself politely like a salesman, Jack felt that his worldview suddenly collapsed.
Is there a devil on earth?
How can the devil be so polite?
Why does he now have the feeling that he is a customer and that the customer is God?
Is it that Jack doesn't understand or is the world changing fast?
"Mortal, I'm just an incarnation smuggled over you, so I hope to make a long story short, because you're about to die. ”
"I'm going to ...... Dead?"
"Of course, carrying my incarnation in a mortal body is the way of self-destruction, otherwise why is your body still in ruins after others have eaten and drunk well to you in the past month?"
"So to cut a long story short, I want to make a deal with you, a deal that satisfies you. ”
"As long as you're willing to sell me your soul...... No, as long as you provide me with the blueprints of those technologies, especially artificial intelligence and computers, I can meet any of your requirements!"
"I will not betray my mission, my country, my world!"
"I'm sure you won't do that, but fulfilling your request doesn't conflict with what you want to do. As long as you and I complete the contract, the agreement between you and me will be supervised by the will of the world, and if either party violates it, the contract will be cancelled immediately and punished fatally. ”
And this contract needs to be completed by both parties. ”
"So why don't you let me, the great Nine Hells Supreme Mephistopheles, do for you what you want to do but can't?"
"I ...... I ......"
"If you want me to kill Xi Xiangyu, I will kill him even if I try to offend the boss behind him. ”
"If you want me to serve the earth, I will dedicate my endless life to the earth. ”
"If you want to become a supreme powerhouse, I can even selflessly hand over all my power to you. ”
"And all of this is just for you to collect the outdated, useless technology and design drawings for me. ”
"The contract between you and me is constrained by the will of the world, as long as you fulfill the requirements of the contract, I must also serve you with all my heart, otherwise I will die without a place to bury!"
"Ahh
Jack had a splitting headache, and fragments of his childhood memories poured up like a spring, a masterful experience of how to make a proper and perfect contract with the devil.
"Your body is getting worse and worse, and it won't be long before it collapses! Why don't you ......?"
"I promise you, but before I do, I need to make a little pact with you to make sure you're telling the truth. ”
Covering his head, which was still in severe pain, Jack said his request word by word.
