Chapter 206: The Styx Oath
Last year's best-selling book sold a full 190,000 copies!
You must know that the population of the entire Kingdom of France is about 50 million, and the literacy rate of the people of the entire Kingdom of France will not exceed 15% at most!
It can be said that one out of every thirty-seven literate people buys this book!
Coupled with the fact that books can also be borrowed from each other, 190,000 copies is already an astronomical number!
"In other words, the standard for bestsellers is 50,000 copies, as long as your book can sell more than 50,000 copies in the Kingdom of France within a year, even if I lose!" Christine naturally heard the meaning of Sivi's question just now, and she said very unhappily.
"200,000 copies!" Sivi stretched out his right index finger and middle finger unhurriedly: "Less than 200,000 copies, even if I lose!"
"And the book will be sold at the normal price, not at a low price!" Sivi added.
A new author who has no fame, wants to surpass last year's sales champion of the Kingdom of France in his first book!
"Okay! That's what you said, so what's the stake?" Christine found that the Sivi in front of her had suddenly become her most hated megalomaniac, and she looked so hateful!
"If I lose, I can agree to any of your requests within the scope of my ability!" Sivi said with confidence.
"I don't have to ask for anything, if you lose, this Violet Castle is mine, how about it?" Christine smiled.
"No problem! If you lose, I want you to be the mentor of Violet Academy!" Sylvie finally had a chance to say what he wanted to say to recruit Christine.
It's not that he has to choose the way to bet, but Christine has been living on Violet Island for more than a month.
She is the daughter of Grand Duke Philippe and the head of the mages aboard the Sant'Estaba. Leaving the country and the post for a month is already a luxury!
During this time, although Sivi tried all kinds of methods, Christine also behaved very friendly and cooperative. But he never spoke!
Seeing that the birth day of the Holy Son is approaching, the time for Christine to leave has also entered the countdown. Xiwei had no choice but to use the way of betting!
"No problem! If I lose, let alone the tutor of Violet Academy, I will be by your side for the rest of my life, at your disposal!" "If 50,000 copies is still a bit unsafe, 200,000 copies is already an impossible astronomical number!
If Sivi's error-ridden book can really do a miracle and sell 200,000 copies, then he is truly a miracle child!
Maybe his nightmare will be ended by this miracle child!
Then you must be by his side at all times to resist the erosion of nightmares, which is exactly what is required in the gambling contract!
If you win, Violet Castle, which you liked at first sight, will be under your name!
Earn without losing money!
A big smile appeared on Christine's face: "In that case, then let's sign the Styx Oath!"
Styx Oath. Swear by the Endless River Styx, which spans the entire multi-dimensional plane, and if you dare to break the oath, your soul will be thrown into the Endless River Styx, and you will never be able to escape.
It was the most powerful oath used by the demons of the Endless Abyss to sign contracts, and it was gradually mastered by mages and became a highly reliable oath.
Although Sivi's soul has been sublimated into the Dreamstar Soul Diamond in the Endless Styx, if he is banished to the Endless Styx, he will never be able to break this oath.
But for Sivi. Even if you lose, you're just losing a Violet Castle.
He has been promoted to a high-level magician, and with the help of zero, he can build another Violet Castle in just half a month!
And once she wins the bet, the silver-haired beauty joins the Violet Academy and becomes a trusted and knowledgeable magical mentor!
Earn without losing money!
Both of them had confident smiles on their faces at the same time.
Christine took out a pale green piece of paper from the spatial ring.
This is a kind of seya paper made from the endless abyss, which is ground from the sedge. It is the best material for signing the Styx Oath.
He took out another pen, and the ink on the tip of the pen was made of the other side of the ink that bloomed on the banks of the endless river Styx.
The complete contract is written on the Xisha paper in the demon language, and Christine gives it to Sivi.
Sivi doesn't have to look at it. As soon as his mind touched, a passage appeared in his mind. It was the oath that the two of them had just made.
He nodded, and left his own unique soul mark under the paper in the form of a secret method seal.
The same goes for Christine. The soul imprints of the two of them just fell on the paper, and the whole paper spontaneously combusted without fire, and instantly dissipated in the wind.
Sivi immediately felt that there was a small piece of something in his soul, and the Styx Oath had been fulfilled!
Baron Humphrey, who had been left aside, was able to interject at this time: "Knight Frost, the paper used in your book is very unique, much higher quality than the book paper used by our Chamber of Commerce. If you print on the original paper, you may have blurred handwriting......"
"I can license this paper-making and printing technology to the Bonaparte Chamber of Commerce!" Sivi waved his hand and said of his benefits.
In fact, in the beginning, this was the benefit that the Sivi Project gave to the Bonaparte family, because he could not have driven the Bonaparte Chamber of Commerce to sell books in vain, after all, the Bonaparte family controlled the very powerful sales channels in this era!
Without the full help of the Bonaparte Chamber of Commerce, no matter how well this book was written, he probably wouldn't have been able to sell 10,000 copies a year on his own.
"Thank you very much for your generosity! In return, we will keep the cost of the sale of this book, and all the profits will go to you, Knight Frost!"
"Give me a set too!Sivi, I'll help you promote it in the Holy Norman Empire! If you sell more than 200,000 copies in the Holy Norman Empire in a year, I will also lose!" Christine also held out her hand.
"You're leaving?" said Sivi's eyes, with a look of nostalgia.
Although Christine seems a little cold and difficult to get along with, she has been very helpful to Sivi during her time in Violet Island.
Whether it is the political, economic, and military situation of the Oronte continent, or the open and secret struggle between the Tower of a Thousand Laws, the kings and nobles, and the Church of the Radiant Lord, or the general situation of the various magical principles, philosophies, and various schools......
Sivi is like a sponge, greedily absorbing all kinds of knowledge and information from Christine, and Christine has not hidden it, but told Sivi frankly what she knows.
"Of course, if I don't leave, the Knights of the Philip family will be coming over to level Violet Island!" Christine said angrily, "Have a happy Christmas! See you next year!"
"See you next time, I hope you'll be one of Violet!" Sivi said with a smile as she banished her sorrow from her mind.
"See you next time, this castle is mine!" Christine smiled triumphantly, her graceful body had disappeared from Violet Castle. (To be continued.) )
