Chapter 30 Newbie Mistakes
The hall of the Crystal Throne is still the same as before, unchanged, like the evil of hell. The people and demons in the mirror should still be sleeping. Without their quarrels, it is even more quiet here.
After Yan Rui returned from his death, the torches on the walls were automatically lit one by one, and the dark red flames added a little vitality to the place. They made a very soothing "whistle" sound when they burned, which sounded like human breathing. Feiqi shook his head and threw these unrealistic illusions out. He walked towards the throne, and there were a few questions that could be discussed with the people in the mirror and the demon.
“Meow…”
Yan Rui was startled. He looked down and saw that Midnight Coal Ball was walking gracefully, and his body was tilted like rubbing his legs. But here, he was the soul body, and Midnight could not borrow the force and fell to the ground all of a sudden. It was dissatisfied and immediately shook its claws, opened its mouth wide and exposed its short breast teeth and made a "whimper" cry.
"Why are you here? Are you dead? Pray to the cat?" Yan Rui poked Midnight with his hand. His feet were in smoke, but his hands were always tactile. He touched the cat, felt the smooth touch of the soft hair on the black hairy belly coming from his fingertips, and could also touch its small teeth, and the pink tongue was slightly rough and soft. However, he could not catch Midnight's feet: it was also cloudy, and it would dissipate once it was pinched, and it would reunite after a moment.
But this would at least pick up the cat. Midnight lay very obediently in his arms, sitting together on the red crystal throne.
"Ah!! What did you do? How could there be a ghost cat?" The road demon screamed in surprise like a supporting actress who was about to die in a horror movie. "Has the exterior wall been opened? Has anyone invaded? I don't want to die!!"
"Shut up, be quieter, the exterior wall is not open, this is midnight coal ball." Yan Rui looked at Master Hall in the mirror, and the human being was also surprised, but he was much more graceful, just opened his eyes wide and did not make a strange cry. "I don't understand what's going on, and I want to ask you guys?"
"I..." The forbidden demon's eyes flashed, and his thick nostrils shrank: "Did you sign some contract? Take it out and let me see!"
"Contract? I..." Yan Rui thought for a while: "I didn't sign anything, but just reached an agreement with Midnight's mother. The ghost cat actually knew the devil, which is really interesting."
"Don't talk nonsense, an agreement is a contract. There is no difference between you agreeing and signing. You are a contract demon, not a little devil or a desire demon. You don't need to use paper and text to establish a contract! Take it out quickly, just concentrate on thinking about this matter, it's nothing difficult. Yes, that's it, let me see!"
Yan Rui didn't expect that just a verbal agreement could form a devil contract. It seems that he should be careful when he promises others in the future. The summoning contract is very simple, just like taking out a piece of candy from his pocket, which is the basic ability of his body and soul.
The Fork Demon widened his eyes, because it found a passage on the contract, which was exactly what Feich said when he was communicating with midnight: 'Your life is maintained in my spell, an invisible power is connected between you and me. I will hold you up with the power of the spell, and you will obey me: When I carry you from the cliff, don't do anything.'
"What have you done?! What have you done? You tied the life of this creature with your spell abilities. As long as you can still cast spells, it can live! You are a devil - damn - as long as it obeys you, it can live as eternal as you! You have found a parasite!"
Yan Rui knocked on the crystal mirror on the side of the Fork Road Demon, and directly smashed the image of the devil. It took several minutes to recover. "Midnight·Coal balls are not parasites. Take care of your mouth, Fork Road Demon! You only need to explain, not express your thoughts."
"But you did do something stupid." The demon snorted, then shook his head: "Although you can create the devil's contract, you are obviously not skilled - this book takes thousands of years of observation, study and practice to gradually master it. When you made a contract, you made a mistake: kindness. You must know that every word in the devil's contract has power and every interpretation may have effect. However, which interpretation is used is that the devil must think well when making a contract. Your true thoughts at that time must save it, rather than gaining benefits from the contract, right?"
Yan Rui understood. The act of entering into a contract itself has nothing to do with evil, it is just a kind of respect for order. Good and evil are reflected in the preparation stage before the contract: "In other words, the final right of interpretation has been decided at the beginning, and the two words "final" are actually deceptive. Before the contract is formed, the inner thoughts have actually been printed between the lines. How to interpret them in essence just a devil's ridicule of mortals?"
"Yes, you can definitely be a perfect contract demon, as long as you can think more about yourself!" The road demon sighed and continued: "Take this contract as an example, you should use 'obey my order' as a prerequisite for saving it. If it does not obey the command, it is breach of the contract, but you have completed the contract and can still harvest the soul. But you directly bind its life and death with spells, and you have not set restrictions on this in your heart. Therefore, the explanation of this sentence is only a literal explanation: as long as you have spells, it will be alive."
"I originally meant to let it live, so there is nothing wrong with this." Yan Rui touched midnight, and each person and a cat smiled happily.
"Nothing bad? This cat can be resurrected by your power, and every resurrection also requires souls. Although it consumes less than you,... are you ready to feed this cat with your soul?" The road demon snorted coldly: "A species that should be eliminated, which can only eat ghost cat milk when they were young to survive. In other words, without ghost cat milk, it will die non-stop! The result of this is very simple: it keeps dying, its soul is constantly consumed, and after it is exhausted, it will be your turn to spell abilities. In other words, this guy is a complete burden!"
"I found a way to transfer blood and provide vitality, which can hold its life. After this winter, I will go to the mountains to find ghost cats. Sign a contract to ask for some milk, and won't it survive?"
The fork-road demon gave Yan Rui a white look and raised his chin and said, "Suppose your method works and can transfer vitality to it, and your luck is good enough to find other ghost cats. But have you ever thought about it? After the ghost cat eats enough milk, it will build its own recipe. You can only let it go out to hunt the corresponding prey, or you will catch it for it. Therefore, in the end you will throw it in the wild and release it."
"It's so cute and obedient. Even if it's finally released to the wild, I'm willing to do these troubles."
The fork-road demon cast a contemptuous look: "What's the use of cuteness? Can cuteness improve combat effectiveness?" This time, even Master Hall in the mirror nodded.
"Because it is cute, I am willing to save it, and it survives. This is the greatest combat power. In fact, beauty is the easiest combat power in this world. You devils are not liked because they are too ugly."
"Desire Demon." The Forbidden Road Demon simply said two words.
"I haven't seen it before." Yan Rui rolled his eyes. "Okay, I know what the contract is going on now. But why can the ghost cat sign a contract with me, and how did it come here at midnight? Also, it only has a cat here, and it only has hair in the world..."
"Most creatures are confused and do not understand life and death. Only a small number of creatures can understand the concept of death. Death is the initial wisdom, and of course it may also be the greatest wisdom. The ghost cat you signed with knows that death is approaching, and it understands the meaning of this matter, so the soul becomes stronger and enough to send a signal. It is very lucky that there is a contract demon not far away. Outside, not only ghost cats, but other creatures are as long as they are smart enough to have this possibility."
"As for this cat... as long as it is dead or near-death when you come here, it can follow you. This is called soul binding. As for the screams... what you hear through your ears is its actual sound, and what you hear through your soul is their sounds that you can understand. The conversation between the soul has no language, only direct mutual understanding. Even if its butt screams, as long as you think it is a cat, you understand it as meow."
"Aowu!" After hearing the slander and slander at midnight, he immediately grinned at the fork-way demon.
"I suggest that the best way for you is to tear the contract directly. Yes, don't look at me with this kind of eye. Of course, the contract demon can tear the contract, anytime and anywhere. As long as you feel it is unfavorable, summon the agreement and use both hands to force it, it will be over. Anyway, the soul of the ghost cat mother is already in the crystal, and it is still making money, but it is just losing. You can stop the loss at any time..."
Yan Rui looked at the fork-way demon. He didn't like its shrewd and philanthropic expression. Yan Rui looked at the young master Hall in the mirror again. Although he showed a little pain, he nodded and finally agreed with the devil's suggestion.
"Oh, what you said makes sense, but you forgot one thing: your suggestion is to sacrifice other people's lives to escape the problem!" Yan Rui gradually became serious: "I am not afraid of problems. The problem is like coming to an undecided intersection. There are monsters and rugged on several roads. The easiest road is the one behind you, tearing up the agreement and leaving this intersection. However, if I continue like this, I will walk on the most familiar road to the devil."
"I chose this difficult road. My measurement standard is different from you. This difficult road is worth it for me. A soulmate, maybe when the contract was signed, my soul wanted this! My mind may not be able to fully control and understand your memories and abilities, but my soul has indeed merged with you. So you said this is a mistake, but I think it should be."
"Then you are wasting your precious soul! There are not enough souls here to strengthen it, and sooner or later they will be occupied and devoured by other devils in hell! At that time, you and your plaything cat will die!"
"Thank you for predicting my death, but since I knew how to write the word death, I have understood that this thing will inevitably happen." Yan Rui shook his head and hugged Midnight tightly in his arms: "I tried to understand death, and there was no doubt that it failed. But in the end, I realized something and knew that the only thing I had to do was actually to live well and protect what I cherished. The three words "Not suffering losses" have never been that important in comparison."
