Chapter 532, The Goddess's Bride Price and Dowry
Are you kidding.
Although Elistra was melancholy and sad, and lingered on the issue of drow elves, she still had the pride and strength of being an elven god, and when Aaron said this, Elystry felt offended.
Just you? Want to be my Lord God too?
There was a hint of displeasure in her innocent eyes, and her body language changed from excitement to caution: "Let me consider this request, I don't want to become a slave god, especially a slave god who is still a divine creature. β
"I didn't say that you want to be my slave god now, I mean that after I become a god in the future, you will become my slave god." Aaron also put away his kind expression.
Elistra didn't speak, but the Dark Maiden's body language undoubtedly showed a considerable degree of resistance.
With a sneer, Aaron stretched out three fingers: "First, for your plan, I must lead my shogunate army to conquer the Dark Regions in person, and compete with the thousands of Drow in Mosoblay City, and even the demon and spider armies in the bottomless abyss, Lady Dark, human life is fate, you don't think that the blood flow of Drow is a tragedy, and the blood flow of human beings has nothing to do with it, right?" β
"I've never thought of it that way." Elise pursed her slightly thick dark purple lips, and the dark girl looked at Aaron with a complicated expression: "Please don't do this. β
"Second, for the sake of your plan, my people and I must face Rose personally, the whole multiverse is probably the most cunning and cruel god, I admit that I defeated Rose once, but that time, except for Rose's miscalculation of my strength, it was the Night Lady who gave me a great help, I owe the Night Lady a great favor for this, you don't think I have to take such a huge risk, just to hear you say thank you, right?"
Elistra bit her lip and nodded, of course he knew how dangerous her mother was.
"Thirdly, in addition to my reward, I also have to seek the support of Suren and other gods, of course I can't let my lord do it in vain, since you plan to break away from the Dark Regions gods, I also have to prepare a place for your oath drow and your church, and create a realm for your people to live in the sun under external pressure, and I have to work hard to explain the difference between your drow and the queen drow, so I ask for the corresponding payment."
Aaron counted three fingers, waiting for Elisestere's reaction.
The dark girl's white teeth bit her lips, and the scroll of thousands of years floated before his eyes.
"I'm okay with all the other requests, but ...... Can you change the conditions for becoming your god? Elistra said with difficulty, "For example, after the deed is done, I can become Suren's subordinate." β
"Deal!" Aaron immediately clapped the shot.
βοΌοΌοΌβ Elisetsu's eyes widened as she realized that she had been tricked by Aaron, that she had been deceived by a mortal!
"Then it was decided, Suren and I promise not to betray you or devour your godhead, and we will do our best to ensure the safety of the believers in your church.
"In return, I want Elise, you swear to Cuthbert, the divine law of the primordial contract, to use half of your soul as collateral to ally with me, promising to join the Heavenly Divine System in the future, and become a subordinate god to me or the Silver Virgin Suren. If I give up in the middle of the process, or if I die for reasons other than yours, the contract will be terminated. β
Aaron clasped his hands to his chest: "As for what I should give, I have already made it clear." β
"You...... What a big ambition, what a big appetite! Elistra was numbed by Aaron, but the dark girl was not so easy to get angry, and if she wanted to be angry, she would not come at Aaron, he just looked at Aaron with sad and sad eyes for a while, and suddenly laughed a little sarcastically: "Are you so sure, you can be a god?" β
"Haven't I been doing it already?" Aaron laughed and said, "I'm gathering an army to storm the Moon Sea to overthrow the thrones of Bane and Ciric, and this will be the biggest battle since the Tucan invasion, Lady Dark, do you think that if I can win, then my reputation will be enough to become a god?" As for strength, although I am not as good as the true god, it is not a problem to compete with the six fingers for a short time, and Wokin can testify. β
"As for whether I can win or not, isn't it simple? If I win, then everything goes according to the contract, and if I lose, then you have nothing to lose. Aaron continued to increase: "I have already given in, when the time comes, you can choose for yourself, whether to be my subordinate to God or to be Suren's subordinate to God, I will not force you, I have already analyzed the unreliability of your plan, believe me, my plan is definitely more likely to succeed than your plan." β
Elisestere's eyes flickered for a moment.
Aaron's charismatic attributes are ridiculously high, well-founded and justified and backed by Suren, the dark girl thought twice and finally made up her mind.
"You are my last hope, Aaron Salion, and I hope you will do what you say." Elistra nodded in pain, and He gave in.
He also realized that Aaron had seen through his bottom line, no matter how excessive Aaron's conditions were, in fact, Elistra would eventually accept it, Aaron left her a little space, she didn't understand or not accept.
In this way, Elistra summoned the other god of punishment, St. Cuthbert.
If anyone remembers that, when referring to the story of Asmodeus, the Lord of the Nine Hells, the Dawnbreaker Gods once signed the Primordial Pact with the Lord of the Nine Hells, and the Dawnbreaker Gods and the Lord of the Nine Infernal Lords had a debate over the Primordial Pact, specifically "Should mortals be punished for deviating from the order established by the gods and the laws of the world?" βγ
At this time, one of the lower priests came up and said, "Reward and punishment are the foundation of all order. β
From this sentence, the nine-square grid camp of the electric egg was officially formed, and the gods began to realize that in addition to the "good" and "evil" axes, there were also "order" and "chaos" axes.
The low-level priests were directly promoted to righteous gods because of these words.
This deity is the god of punishment - Cuthbert.
It is said that one of the devils is the highest prize, and that is to bet on whether or not a hair can be taken off St. Cusbert's head.
The god of punishment often appears in the form of a bald, long-haired old man in a red burqa, white armor, holding his famous hammer.
It is worth mentioning that the reason why Aaron chose St. Cuthbert instead of Heim is because the elven god system actually exists in multiple celestial universes and even in the multiverse, the primordial contract is a contract that overrides all contracts, and Elistra is an elven god, if he really wants to repay the debt, then he can abandon this aspect of the kingdom.
This is what Shar reminded Aaron, and Shar said that you made a mistake by signing the contract with Moradin in the first place, don't make such a stupid mistake next time.
St. Cuthbert hastily skimmed through Aaron and Eliestria's contract, and even the well-informed God of Punishment couldn't help but tighten the wrinkles on his face when he saw this contract, and he almost couldn't even hold the hammer.
Eliestria, who wants to bet everything she has on the young man in front of her? On the premise that the other party has not yet become a god, he has promised that he may become his slave god in the future?
You're not afraid you've been deceived, are you? The white-haired, bald old man glanced at Elise Emerald a few times, and seeing that Elise Emerald looked firm, Cuthbert could only start the vow.
Although the God of Punishment is biased towards the good camp, he himself is strictly neutral.
The hammer was raised high, and the primordial contract document symbolizing the new era of the multiverse appeared in the hands of the god of punishment.
"Since there is no objection from both sides, and I witness the signing of the Divine Contract between the two parties in the name of the God of Punishment in the name of the God of Justice, and in the principle of fairness, justice and openness, I ask you, Aaron Salion of the Heavens of the Kingdom, do you agree to provide Eriseth with all possible services, to make every effort to end the sins of Queen Rose, and to share your fruits with Him?"
"I agree." Aaron placed his hand on the Primordial Covenant.
The God of Punishment turned to Elisetsu: "Elisetsu, the daughter of Corellon, the father of the elves, and the dark maiden of the dark elf gods, do you agree to choose the Moon Maiden Suren or the god-made Aaron as his master in the body of a god, on the premise that Aaron Salian will do his best to ensure the completion of your mother-killing plan and arrange a way out for your sworn people?" Since then, he has left the elven god system and joined other god systems that may exist? β
Elise Trine took one last look at Aaron, pursed her lips and said with three points of cheerfulness and seven points of melancholy, "I agree. β
"Then under the witness of the just Primordial Covenant, I declare that this covenant shall be established from this day onwards."
St. Cousper's nodding, the contract was formally established, and the god of punishment departed.
A tattoo-like redstone star brand appeared on Aaron and Eliestria's wrists at about the same time, each reminding them of the existence of the highest level of contract.
"I entrust everything to you, Aaron Salian." Elise Emerald looked sadly at the brand on her wrist, "Don't forget the agreement between us, don't forget the ......"
The dark girl slowly dissipated into the room, and before leaving, he stretched out one of his index fingers and poked Aaron's face, "Don't forget. β
"You owe Nestia an apology, Lady Dark." Aaron kissed the back of Elise's hand wrapped in white silk, "Don't forget. β
"I will......"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Ilminster's home was always filled with a warm atmosphere, and the great sage was always as lively as a bad old man, and liked to laugh, tell all kinds of jokes to amuse the atmosphere, and be witty and humorous, but when others said the wrong thing, Ilminster would correct them very seriously, and correct the grammatical mistakes of the other person word by word.
He took pleasure in holding a sepiolite pipe and inadvertently spat smoke rings into Eleanor's face, admiring the frowning expression of Miss Priest, and he was happy to show Egir his collection and chat with the Great Dragon about all the interesting things in the multiverse and which half-plane might have the most treasures.
He stopped the little pirate Titch's hands from touching around, and scolded Titch so harshly that the little pirate never dared to leave his seat again, but in the face of the gobbling Harald and Hafdan, Ilminster smiled helplessly, and did not criticize them for making apple pie sauce and food scraps everywhere.
The atmosphere in the house was harmonious until Aaron came down from the upper floor.
"Young man, the old man dares to ask, did your negotiation with the Lady of Darkness go well?" Ilminster took his pipe off his mouth, "The old man has no intention of probing into the secrets between you, but it depends on what we do next. β
"I'd rather call it the 'Twilight League.'" Aaron laughed.
"Oh, that couldn't be better." Ilminster motioned for Aaron to sit down, "In that case, we can begin, Storm, Doph, Floryn." β
Silver fire leaps above the large map of Feeron, and Mystra's Primordial Force watches over the familiar coastline, plains, mountains, rivers, forests, and cities.
Aaron, the general of Cormier's conquest, sat on the side with Egir, the dragon dragon, and Eleanor, the priest's lady.
On the other side are the Grand Sage Ilminster, two of the Seven Sisters of the Northlands Storm-Silverhand and Dove-Hawkhand, Doph's husband Florin Hawkhand, and their son, Merrikai's Ranger Azara Hawkhand, who, according to the grapevine, has a good chance of becoming the next Lord of Shadow Valley.
The eldest sister, Helen, one of the Seven Sisters of the Northland, has died and is currently guarding the Valley of Shadows in the form of spirits, and Aaron believes that through the Silver Fire, the Seven Sisters of the Northland and the other Mistra voters are listening to him.
Aaron briefly described his plans, the dangers of the Santarim Society, Ciric's ambitions, and his concern about Bane's comeback.
"Without further ado, I need your support, guys." Aaron said towards Ilminster.
"The enemy is now." The Silver Hand of the Storm replied first, "I'm glad to see the fall of the Santarim, but should you tell us beforehand?" β
"Harpists are always called in when they need to, aren't they, Lady Storm?" Aaron punned on the tall silver-haired beauty: "I think that's the difference between a harpist and a santarin, and I'm convinced that justice is always on our side." β
"Do you have a chance of winning?" Florin Eagle Hand is a serious man, and his appearance is that of a true general, but he has worn away his impulses, leaving only a calm and composed look: "The knights of Mistrono cannot take risks because of your ambitions, Your Highness Aaron. β
"Whether you take the risk or not depends on the judgment of Your Excellency the Great Sage and your lordship." Aaron clenched his fists and said seriously: "We have a great reputation, and many countries and armies in the central and western parts of the country will join our army, as long as His Excellency Ilminster, as the great sage, makes a decision, then our army will be sure of victory." β
"Will you win?" Dove Eaglehand's words are few, and she hovers between forging ahead and being cautious: "We don't doubt your ability......"
"You can't say that." Ilminster said slowly, and the great sage took the pipe from his mouth and gazed at Aaron with his deep eyes full of wisdom: "Young man, justice often does not determine victory or defeat, but victory or defeat can determine justice...... If I had been killed by the elves while wandering the Great Forest of Comanso in my youth, there would have been no story of what happened. β
Justice cannot determine victory or defeat, but victory or defeat can determine justice.
This sentence actually came out of Ilminster's mouth, and Aaron only felt that every word was full of deep meaning.
Ilminster was over a thousand years old, and he had spent hundreds of years roaming the multiverse, and he would say that he had obviously seen too much.
"But you're protected by St. Mystra, aren't you? My Great Sage? Aaron's heart burst out and said tentatively.
"There will be no shortage of gods who support the Santarin Society, and once some forces join you, there will definitely be other forces on the Moon Sea side." Ilminster said slowly: "You should understand the philosophy of balance, right? Why did the god AO suddenly appear in a turbulent year, wasn't it because the actions of the three gods of death upset the balance? β
"Don't take the enemy lightly." Storm Silver held a silver spoon in his hand and waved it into Aaron's face: "Dark Sun, Lady Night, Lady Torment, Lady Doom, including the Dark Army of the Sons of Bane, the Red Robe of Serre, the Dragon Witch Cult, and the Demon Elves in the Great Forest of Comanso, and the Frost Giant Tribe in the North will all join the Sea of Moon." β
"But maybe it's also an opportunity." Ilminster pondered the possibilities: "You are Alice's fiancΓ© and the chosen of Our Lady of Silver...... If, I mean if, young man, if you are willing to contribute to the Elven Holy War to reclaim Misdrano in the future, and provide the maximum range of military assistance as reinforcements for the Elven Restoration Army, how about we? β
"Recover the Lost Strono? The elves intend to rebuild the Comanso Empire?! β
