"Huh? You an this ring?" Myne confusedly followed the travelling rchant's finger and realized he was talking about the Fate Ring, the wedding ring, his succubus wife Gal had given him. It was the last relic of her. He'd last seen her at the Albam dinsional tower, and there had been no news since then.
Rembering the strange and unforgettable mont filled with full of love and passion, and a lot, and a lot of sex,—where she raped him, forced him to marry her, made him sign a soul contract, and then helped him escape that wretched place—Myne couldn't help but get emotional. Even now, Gal's face appeared in his mind every ti he saw the ring, and he missed her greatly.
"Sigh... this was given to by my wife... She...she was from a faraway place," Myne said emotionally, his tone falling silent. He had no intention of discussing his family matters with a stranger.
"She was a succubus, wasn't she?" The travelling rchant, disregarding Myne's emotions, coldly revealed the secret Myne had been trying to hide while sounding mysterious as if he had a hidden story to tell but soone was not worthy enough to know.
"F*ck! How do you know that? Don't tell you can really read my mind?" Myne's eyes widened in shock, seeing how easily the other party had pointed out his thoughts.
I don't need to read your goddamn mind to recognize my own damn ring, Though the travelling rchant wanted to say this, considering Myne's unknown relationship with his daughter, he remained silent and rely stared coldly. However, upon realizing that soone had been involved with his runaway daughter, his attitude shifted dramatically.
When she ran away from ho to escape marriage, while talking big, I thought she would do sothing shocking. But making a weakling of a human her partner? What the f*ck was that stupid brat thinking? And she even f*cking gave him one of our family heirlooms as easily as if it were so kind of junk. I knew that brat was hopeless. I shouldn't have listened to her mother and let her go. What a ss, out of countless powerful beings there in the cosmos, she had to choose a f*cking human, great, if my friends or enemies find out about this, I am done for, The travelling rchant sighed in his heart. The more he looked at Myne, the angrier he beca. Now his hands were tickling; he couldn't wait to beat soone to vent his anger.
"You said you wanted to work for , right? I accept your request, but you also have to beco my champion in the cosmic arena. Otherwise, forget everything. I'm leaving..."
"By the way, let tell you, without my help, you'll never be able to leave this world and return to yours. Entering the Abyss is easy, but leaving isn't. So, tell your answer: work for and go back ho, or stay here your entire life with those monsters and die in self-regret?"
Caught off guard by the travelling rchant's sudden change in temperant, as if he had asked for his daughter's hand in marriage, Myne rubbed his head, confused as to why The travelling rchant was angry for no reason. He had only asked if the other party could read his mind; what was there to be angry about?
{ He is very annoying right now and wants to beat you. }
{ He doesn't understand what is good about a pig like you. }
???
Because the travelling rchant's emotions were unstable, so of his usually guarded thoughts surfaced and were easily picked up by Myne's special ability.
Reading The travelling rchant's thoughts only made Myne more confused. He couldn't understand why all the big shots he encountered after a few minutes of eting always wanted to beat him.
{ He decided that once you start working for him, he'll set the default difficulty for all your missions to Nightmare mode, record all your miserable deaths, and watch them later with his friends to enjoy them greatly. }
"What the f*ck is wrong with this dude? Why is he suddenly so eager to ruin my life? What did I even do to him?"
The more Myne read the travelling rchant's thoughts, the more frightened he beca. For a mont, he even considered that staying in this dying world wasn't so bad. But after a few minutes of silence, just as the travelling rchant's anger was about to erupt, he nodded.
"Alright, I'm willing to work for you. But can you tell why you're so angry at ? We were having such a nice conversation a mont ago, but now, you looked as if you were craving to beat ," He asked nervously. Seeing no change in The travelling rchant's cold expression, he knew he wouldn't get a response.
"Sign it." The travelling rchant threw a thick scroll at Myne.
Rolling his eyes in annoyance, Myne unfolded the scroll, only to be dumbfounded by the over five-ter-long docunt filled with rows of densely packed terms and conditions that seed endless.
Just as Myne wondered how long it would take to read all those terms and conditions, a sharp pain shot through his mind, and a flood of unknown information was transmitted directly into his head.
What a cool way to save ti, Myne thought excitedly. He took a bit of blood from his injured hand and signed his na at the end of the contract.
Although there were thousands of terms and conditions, Myne found that most were reasonable, and the remaining ones were for alien creatures with special body features or innate abilities, preventing them from exploiting loopholes. Clearly, soone had gone to great lengths to create this contract for his general workers.
"Good... rember, you have to complete at least one cleaning mission per month and fight in the cosmic arena once a year. This is a mandatory order; otherwise, you will receive severe punishnt."
Taking the contract from Myne, the travelling rchant checked it, tore it apart, and the docunt turned into golden particles. Half of the particles entered Myne's body, and the other half entered his.
Then, he took out a small, palm-sized, jade-like smooth and greenish disk from his hat and, without giving Myne ti to react, slamd it onto Myne's forehead.
"AHHH!!!"
The mont the disk touched his forehead, Myne's eyes snapped wide, and he began screaming like a wounded animal as if enduring soul-rending pain. He collapsed onto the ground, rolling and clutching his head.
Waffle and the others, who had been growing bored in the background, were caught completely off guard by the sudden turn of events. They rushed to check on him, but they were at a loss, unsure of what was happening or what to do. Ultimately, they turned their attention to the sole outsider, the travelling rchant. After exchanging a quick glance, they rush toward him angrily, prepared to beat him before forcing him to heal Myne.
"Oh, so fierce. Do you want to fight ? As expected from the pets of an idiot, you're no different from him. All three of you have a special bloodline and can naturally feel danger of mine even if I hide it perfectly, but you still underestimate , thinking that you three little brats can fight with ... Since you're so close to him, it would be a sha to let him suffer alone in those dark and gloomy dead worlds swallowed by the Abyss."
The travelling rchant spoke with a smile that was nothing short of devilish. He casually tossed the disk in his hand, which, with the speed of light, moved in front of Waffle, Ted, and Ocea one by one, gently touching their foreheads. The next mont, like Myne, they were also rolling on the ground, screaming in agony.
"Hahahaha, usually, it's over in a second, but since I've taken a special liking to you and your pets, you're going to experience this pain for a full two minutes. But worry not, after the transfer process ends, you'll be healed automatically. Also, the system will tell you the rest, so I'm taking my leave. I've bonded you and those three pets, so they will be teleported with you on every mission to help you. Hopefully, you will be grateful for this generosity of mine..."
"Welco Aboard, brat. Hahahaha..."
Laughing maniacally, the travelling rchant snapped his fingers and disappeared into thin air, just as abruptly as he had appeared.
"Motherf*cker!" Myne cursed angrily, gritting his teeth while enduring unimaginable pain throughout his body, especially in his head.
