Chapter 9: The Price of Becoming Stronger

What?

Help them become stronger.

Until...... Until you get out of here?

When he heard this, Jiang Yan was still a little confused.

It's not that all five of them have evil god soul fragments in their bodies.

Can't you leave this "monastery of silence" for the rest of your life?

Why are you able to leave when you become stronger?

Words from the point of view of ginger ash.

Helping them become stronger is not an impossible thing to do.

After all, there are fortified dishes that can directly absorb the holy energy.

"As long as you keep eating, you can become stronger" is a plot in a novel.

It's also possible in reality.

But the question is, how strong do you have to be to get out of here?

Or is it really possible to get out of here when you get stronger?

Regarding this matter, An Jie's reply was a little ambiguous.

Or rather, she herself is not very clear.

"Anyway, just get strong, specifically...... Go ask the woman over there. ”

The pure white nun pursed her lips slightly.

Then he stretched out his thumb and poked Lannathel next to her.

Obviously, about being able to leave the monastery when you become stronger.

It should have been brought up by Lannassel to the crowd.

When being watched by Jiang Ash's gaze.

This intellectual beauty from "Blazing Blue" pursed her lips and smiled.

He also put his slender index finger on his rosy lips and said with a smile:

"It's a secret, I can't tell you yet."

Lannasel was originally the type full of mysteries.

But since she said so, Jiang Yan could only choose to believe it for the time being.

Well, just help these five to become stronger.

to help them get out of the monastery.

On the premise of knowing the general situation.

Then it's time for Jiang Ember to make a choice.

…… What to do?

Do you want to choose to help them?

Suddenly, Jiang Yan held the pot of fragrant tea in his hand.

I got a little caught up in a bit of a headache.

How so?

As far as Ember is concerned, he just wants to cook dishes.

It's not a stressful job in itself.

But this is, after all, a major event involving the five great powers and the great evil gods.

If you think about it with your ass, you can have all kinds of accidents during this period.

In other words, this matter is also a certain risk for Jiang Yan himself.

For five people who have just met, or just known their names.

to take such a big risk.

Is this a reasonable choice?

…… Apparently not.

But the problem is that Jiang Ember has now stepped on the thief ship with one foot.

Kassandra and the other five knew that he had such a powerful ability.

Plus he has already leaked some of his plans to him.

To a certain extent, the two sides have become a community of interests.

If Jiang Ember doesn't agree to their request.

If you don't stay in this monastery and help them become stronger.

Then you may be imprisoned or even ...... Extinguish the mouth.

Thinking of this, a trace of solemnity flashed in Jiang Yan's eyes.

However, Lannathel seemed to see through the teenager's thoughts.

With a kind smile in advance, he said:

"Don't worry, even if you don't agree, we won't kill you, probably not."

Probably not...... That's a good thing to say, it's the same as not saying it.

Seeing that Jiang Yan's face gradually became difficult to look at.

Kassandra tapped the table lightly.

He glared at Lanather again in a warning manner.

Only then did he finally say seriously to Jiang Yan:

"Rest assured, no matter what choice you make, I will keep you safe."

“…… Are you sure? ”

"Of course, I am proud to be a knight...... Ahem, I swear by the glory of my family. ”

Originally, Kassandra was supposed to swear by the glory of a knight.

But I didn't react until halfway through.

She is now a nun.

He finished the second half of the sentence in a somewhat bitter tone.

However, her words aroused some of Jiang Yan's interest.

"Knight...... Kassandra was a knight before? ”

"Huh? Yes, the royal family members of "Soryu" are all knights, and this is a tradition left over from the founding of the country thousands of years ago. ”

When mentioning your previous career.

Kassandra's tone still had a hint of pride in her voice.

In the final analysis, the ancestors of the five kingdoms were all the companions of the brave back then.

Since he can be the companion of the brave, he naturally has his own advantages in all aspects.

Professionally, the five companions were knights, mages, assassins, druids, and priests.

There's melee, there's ranged, there's legal, there's physical, there's healing.

…… It's a typical adventurous squad.

Influenced by this, the descendants of those five companions naturally inherited their talents in this area.

For example, Kassandra, who was born in the "Blue Dragon", should have been a very good knight before.

However, all this has disappeared after she was chosen as the sealer.

Such a heroic girl who should have galloped on the battlefield.

Since then, I can only be here to live in the ancient Buddha of the green light, wasting the years.

Think about it this way...... It's a pity.

And Kassandra wasn't alone.

Like Anjie, Ellulu, Lannaser, and Yumi.

As a direct descendant of the brave companions of the past.

They should have inherited a lot of their own unique skills.

In that case...... It doesn't seem like there's nothing to talk about.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ember looked at the five nuns sitting around the tea table.

At this moment, his expression had relaxed.

The posture of sitting in the chair is also less restrictive.

Instead, it showed an anti-customer-oriented attitude.

Well? What's going on?

This guy gives the feeling ...... Not quite the same?

Just as Lanna Cel couldn't help but frown slightly.

Jiang Yan said in an interested tone:

"It's not impossible for me to help you, but everything has a price, doesn't it?"

As he spoke, he looked at the five people at the table with some greedy eyes.

That tone, that gaze, that feeling of greed.

It can be seen at a glance.

He seemed to have something in mind with the few people in front of him.

The moment you perceive this change.

Lannathel slammed her fist under the table.

Some very bad thoughts seem to be flashing through my head.

Worst...... Did he perceive that the initiative was actually on his side?

In this unequal situation.

He is indeed the one who can make the conditions.

Look at the look in his eyes, as if he has bad intentions towards the five of us?

It wasn't intended to be ...... to us Do something shameless, right?

Suddenly, Lannathel couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Then he looked at the other sisters at the table with inexplicable expressions.

All of them are young and have no idea about men and women.

If you really have to pay something...... Then I'll do it.

Thinking of this, Lannacel took a deep breath, but still asked in a relaxed tone:

"Of course, what do you want us to pay? As long as you can do it...... I will definitely say yes. ”

Jiang Yan didn't notice that this woman quietly replaced "we" with "me" halfway.

Instead, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he asked excitedly:

"Really? What do you say yes? ”
