"Investment?"
Petrov humbly turned his head and said softly,""Although I'm very grateful, I don't think we have anything worth investing in.”
" Walter and I didn't go to high school. Our education is very poor. We're basically unemployed now, and there doesn't seem to be anything special…"
Peter's voice grew softer and softer under Jing Kong's gaze…
Although it sounded reasonable, it would be better if the voice was a little louder ~
Jing Kong could clearly hear the rejection in Petrov's words, so he said bluntly,""There's no problem if you don't accept the investment. Then I'll change my approach. How about we make a deal?”
"Fair, just, a mutually agreeable transaction. After the transaction, we'll pretend we never met.”
"Deal?" " No!" Petrov shook his head decisively." We have nothing to give you!"”
"Yes!" Jing Kong said softly," You guys are different. It's fine even if you don't admit it. It's good that I know. What I need is to be different."”
"Of course, it's normal for you to not trust a stranger who suddenly came to you to make a deal.
What I need is very simple for you. A drop of blood from each of you is enough. You can fill in the other side of the scale. No matter what it is, as long as it is within my ability, I will not refuse.
I came here with sincerity. After all, it's not difficult for me to do this quietly, but I choose to directly win your trust.”
"I've shown my sincerity, what's your choice?”
"This…" Petrov and Walter looked at each other, completely clueless.
" You said you're a Mage," Walter asked cautiously." Then I want to ask, how did you take a drop of our blood…" What are you planning to do?"
" I can't tell you the details." Jing Kong shook his head without hesitation."The only thing I can guarantee is that it won't be used for anything strange.”
" Hell, no." Petrov ridiculed at the right time,""Generally speaking, the result is the opposite.”
"Do I look like a pervert?" Jing Kong glared at Petrov with a face full of black lines.
"It doesn't look like it!" Petrov shrunk his neck. Didn't they say that one's heart was beyond one's stomach? How do I know you're not a scoundrel? Or some evil wizard?
What if you use our blood as material for an evil ritual? How would we know? When the time comes, I'm afraid you won't even know how you died ~"
"Although your conditions sound beautiful, I don't want to die without knowing why.”
I can't communicate with you anymore.
The power of words can be so weak at times ~
Could it be that other than playing the old-fashioned complex of taking advantage of the situation to gain trust, other seemingly normal methods would not work?
"Fine, believe it or not, just pretend that I'm not here. Let's call it a day!”Jing Kong did not intend to force it anymore.
It's obvious that I don't believe you. No matter what you say, it's useless.
Jing Kong did not feel good being ignored, so he did not bother to stick his warm face to the cold buttocks.
Although Walter and Petrov were special, it wasn't necessary.
He had only taken their two drops of blood to use as synthesis material. If he couldn't get them, so be it. Anyway, there would definitely be another chance in the future. He was not in a hurry at all.
If he didn't accept the normal deal, he would just take advantage of the situation and rob them. He wasn't the male protagonist of the Assahites.
" Wait!" Just as Jing Kong stood up and was about to leave, Walter, who had been hiding behind Petrov and observing Jing Kong, suddenly stood up from his chair. His movements were surprisingly big.
"Hmm?" Jing Kong turned around and looked at Walter.""Is there a problem?"
"I agree!" Walter said without hesitation.
“？”A question mark appeared above Jing Kong's head.
Just now, he had tried so hard to disagree…What was wrong with him now?
"Walter." Petrov frowned and tugged at Walter's sleeve.
Walter took a deep breath, and the complicated emotions in his eyes disappeared."" Petrov, do you believe me?"
"Of course!" Petrov said without hesitation.
"Then listen to me." Walter steadied his trembling hands and looked at Jing Kong.""We agree!"
"You agreed? Now it's my turn to ask." Jing Kong frowned as well. Walter's expression was a little off.
"I clearly didn't agree to it before, so why now... You agreed again?"
“...”Walter only shook his head and suddenly fell silent. It was obvious that he didn't intend to say anything more.
After observing Walter's behavior, Jing Kong had a guess that was close to the truth.
Never make a hasty judgment about unknown things and concepts based on your own vision and knowledge. That would appear ignorant and arrogant.
It was enough for Jing Kong to know the meaning of the Scarlet Witch and Chaos Magic.
Walter might be very weak now, but never doubt the upper limit and perverse extent of the ability to modify probability.
The uneasiness in her subconscious triggered Walter's ability. She must have seen something or something through her ability at that moment.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have become so anxious and uneasy, even abandoning his previous distrust of him to reach a deal with him.
Jing Kong didn't care about what Walter saw because it was useless to care.
The only thing he could do was to be prepared to deal with danger at all times. Other than that, he could only strengthen his own abilities and then plan some corners in his spare time to create some benefits for himself...
"Right hand!" Jing Kong said softly.
Walter extended his right hand without hesitation. Petrov hesitated for a second before extending his right hand as well.
He raised his hand and gently stroked it. Two drops of bright red blood floated out, but there were no wounds on their hands.
"Alright!" The cold air gathered and two drops of blood were frozen into ice beads that Jing Kong placed into the God's Eye.
After settling everything, Jing Kong looked up at the two of them and asked softly,""Then, what is the weight on the other side of the scale?”
"I haven't thought about it yet…" Walter shook his head again." But you need to do something for us. But not now."”
"Do something? This range is huge."
"But no problem." Jing Kong narrowed his eyes." This must be something that I can do, and it must not go against my own will. If it's too much, I will refuse."”
Walter hesitated for a few seconds before nodding."
"Good!"
"How do I contact you?"
"Simple!" Jing Kong's Divine Eye flashed, and a bracelet made of pure water hung silently on Walter's wrist.
The bracelet was completely transparent, and three seemingly soft water droplets hung on it, sticking tightly to Walter's wrist.
"I've injected my own spiritual energy into it. If you want to find me, just crush one of them and I'll know. Unless there's something I can't get away from, I'll be there in three seconds at most.”
"Then, goodbye!"
