Chapter 872 872: Delusional
“Intentionally like you stealing my memories?” the woman asked, surprising Karyk. “It took me some time, but I finally remembered everything you did that day. Do you think I would trust you after that?”
“So you’re getting back at me for that day?” Karyk sat with his back resting against a wall, looking at the door in the distance. “Do you think you won’t lose if I die here?”
“Aren’t you the one forgetting here?” The woman’s voice came in response, still filled with that eerie calmness. “I am not the one who will lose the most here. I’ve spent centuries sealed here. I can spend more centuries. You’re the one who doesn’t have time, not me.”
As she spoke, she calmly took a sip from the wine glass in her hand, as if not in any hurry. She could already understand that Karyk was at a safe place for the time being as she didn’t hear any signs of battle.
She wasn’t in any hurry to even consider the thought of helping the man who tried to peer into her memories without her permission.
Instead, she allowed herself to enjoy the moment of tranquility. The faint aroma of ancient wine and the soft flickering of candlelight created a peaceful ambiance, even as she was talking about things that could affect the entire world and her future.
After all, time was on her side, and she was in no rush to resolve the situation at hand.
Karyk on the other hand didn’t appreciate her method. More importantly, he didn’t like that she was trying to toy with him when all he wanted was for her to deliver a message.
“If you’re expecting me to grovel before you, then you are dreaming. I will ask you one last time. Will you help me or not?” he asked.
“I will help you on one condition.” The Empress stood up from her throne and calmly stepped towards the window.
She gazed outside the window where millions of undead beasts were waiting for her. Amongst them were beasts that had never made an appearance before.
The Beasts were as tall as mountains, being able to crush the entire city with just their bodies. It was as if she was prepared for the war that was to come.
“What condition?” Karyk asked. Although he didn’t want to listen to her, but he still needed her. As long as her condition didn’t go overboard, he was willing to listen.
“I want you to become my Eternal Servant…” The woman exclaimed, her words shocking even Karyk.
“Ha… You must be insane.” Karyk didn’t believe the girl actually wanted him to become her servant.
“If you want to think that I’m insane, I’ll let you. But my condition doesn’t change. I want you to become my Eternal Servant,” the woman repeated. “Don’t worry. The process won’t be painful for you.”
“I will teach you a seal that you need to carve on your chest. Once the slave seal is complete, I’ll be able to feel its presence. I’ll accept that seal and the process will be completed.”
The more she spoke, the more Karyk realized that she wasn’t joking. She was absolutely serious about making him a slave.
He had also seen that seal in her memories. It was a seal that could take away his independence, making him completely rely on the woman. He couldn’t do anything she didn’t want. If she wanted him to watch his world be destroyed, that was the only thing he could do.
The seal was very powerful, but it could only be completed when both sides agreed to the seal. In the Celestial Dynasty, it was a seal that was used by the Emperor on his closest subordinates to erase the chance of any betrayal.
In the memories, it was also mentioned that the seal could bind even gods. And once completed, there was no way to break the seal.
“I will repeat what I said. If you think that I will agree to that seal, you’re out of your mind.” Karyk didn’t even think about the offer and directly rejected it.
“Don’t eat more than you can swallow. I will help you be free from your seal and I will take care of the Elzeirans and the ones above them. But if you want me to become your slave, then you’re delusional.” Read Web Novels Online Free – NovelFire Novel Fire – novelfire.net
The Empress let out a smile. “I have already placed my offer before you. You can take all the time to want, but I won’t be changing my mind. I will wait for your reply.”
After leaving the last message, she stopped talking and only gazed towards the city. However, her gaze was not looking at the beasts in the city. Instead, she was looking through space and time.
She could see the land of Chaos where the Puppet Master was sitting, his back resting against a wall. His entire body was covered in blood, as if he had fought a hard battle.
In front of him, there stood the citizens of the Border City that Karyk had turned into pureblood. But strangely enough, all of them had their hands tied with a strange rope that even the pure blood weren’t able to break.
The Purebloods also looked like they were out of their senses. They were more like zombies than humans, not even the slightest of life visible in their eyes.
….
“I was planning to try other methods to win you over,” standing at the balcony, the Empress commented. “But you made things real easy for me.”
She wanted to find out the methods that Karyk used to kill the Purebloods. Unfortunately, she knew that Karyk wasn’t going to tell her the method. That man wasn’t an equal in this deal with her. Just like she kept her secrets, he also did.
She wanted the puppet master to find his secrets but even after months of trailing Karyk, he had failed.
The woman knew that Karyk was very dangerous if she couldn’t control him. It upset her even more when she found out that he had gone through her memories.
