Chapter 711 Deal
"Aren\'t you too confident? I\'m not just muscles you know... I\'m very strong and stuff~" Holak tilted his head to the side, smiling.
Robin smiled as well, "I know, the mere fact that you control Crixus and can move the beasts of the Northern Edge Mountain Range alone speaks volumes about your status. Please don\'t think that I despise you or something, on the contrary, I highly appreciate you. I made a promise to myself before that I would no longer accept allies, that my relationship with those around me consists of followers or corpses, but unfortunately I had to make an exception to this rule too soon just for you."
"...Should I be honored by this?" Holak furrowed his eyebrows again. This praise contained clear contempt!
"Of course! I thought about you a lot. I knew that a crazy person who lives among the beasts like you would not follow me so easily. I also lived a century among low-level beasts and I know what this does to the mind, so what about someone who has lived among them for thousands of years? But at the same time, I cannot ignore you or kill you because I need your presence," Robin shook his head with a sigh, "Frankly, I thought about suppressing you using my superior soul force and imposing a soul enslavement seal on you, but I was afraid that I would destroy your soul in the process and kill you by mistake, so I decided to make you a temporary ally until the war ended. This speaks volumes about your status if you ask me."
"....." Holak\'s eyelids twitched when he noticed Robin\'s sly smile, "So the choice was between killing me or making me a slave, but in the end, you were generous enough to make me a temporary ally... I thought I was an irritating bastard already, but you got over me easily in this area, I will give you that!"
Holak experienced Robin\'s soul force a while ago. The difference between them is too large, but from his point of view, he can focus for a split second to physically attack the Third Heaven\'s Chosen and kill him if he tries to do something suspicious, so this threat is still not enough for him to feel any real danger.
But at the same time, even though he didn\'t know what this Soul Enslavement Seal was and didn\'t know if Robin was capable of doing what he said, he definitely didn\'t want to try! In the end, the subject of the soul force is not his strong point.
"Hahaha, many people have said that to me before you," Robin laughed out loud, and then his facial expression changed to seriousness again, "Do you know what else I am? Someone who hates wasting time... Brother Holak, I explained the plan to you and informed you of the situation and there is nothing more to be said. Are you ready to assume your mission of leading the North and protecting your world, or will you return to your isolation and wait for the winner among us to fight him alone?"
Holak remained silent for a while and then returned to look into Robin\'s eyes, "...Give me the Soul Strengthening Technique first. I will not fight against a damn Planetary Empire with my life on the line for something unknown. Forgive me, but I do not trust your words."
"What a coincidence, I don\'t trust you too! Then let\'s use this." Robin took out a metal tablet from his ring, "This is an oath tablet. Pass your soul sense into it and swear that you will protect the northern region and do your best not to lose a single herb to the invaders and that you deserve to die if you break your promise. Then I will give you the technique."
"Who the hell deserves to die? This sounds very serious!!" Holak furrowed his eyebrows
"I\'m telling you to defend yourself and your world and in return, I\'m giving you an extremely powerful soul strengthening technique, take some responsibility here for god\'s sake!!" Robin shouted for the first time since the meeting began
"...Give me that damn thing." Holak extended his hand and pulled out the metal plate. He stared at it for more than a minute before scratching his head forcefully, "Listen, I will make the northern region a barrier in front of them but don\'t wait for any heroic actions. The most I will do is push them back and you will do the rest, Do we have a deal?"
"Good for me!" Robin extended his hand
"...Dammit!!" After a few seconds, Holak extended his hand to shake Robin\'s as well, then began reciting the agreed upon oath
Even though he took his time to think about any harm that would befall him to reject it and found none, for some reason he still felt like he was being manipulated.
He came today to drop off some treasures to Robin take the Soul Strengthening Technique and go back to winning his immortal life, but suddenly he was thrown into a war that yesterday he knew nothing about!!
"Hahaha excellent, now the siege is complete!" Robin laughed loudly and pulled the tablet from Holak\'s hand, then with the other hand he gave him another tablet and spoke seriously, "Here, pass your soul sense into it, and please... use it carefully and responsibly!"
Holak carefully received the tablet with both hands, then passed his spiritual sense through it, and quickly the information began to flow into his head n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After a few minutes, Holak opened his eyes, with slightly furrowed eyebrows and a serious face, then nodded towards Robin, "This secret technique deserves your praise. You have completed your half of the agreement... I will go and complete mine." Then he let out a loud whistle
*ROOAAARR*
After a few moments, the wyvern came covering the sky. Holak hit the ground with his foot so hard that the top of the mountain split in two and shot himself up to the sky, in the middle of the air, the wyvern passed underneath him, Holak landed on his back with arms crossed and they both disappeared towards the east... This was the direction of the of the nearest giant tribe.
The seriousness on Robin\'s face faded as the wyvern disappeared, and then he began to laugh, "I wonder what his reaction will be when he learns that this technique is being distributed to the children of Jura and Greenland, hehe." He then took out several black banners to form a space vortex in front of him, then jumped into it and the banners were pulled inside the space vortex right after him.
Finally, the top of that mountain has returned to its usual calm.
