Chapter 158 Contracts and Command Seals
It's really not my fault if something came up unexpectedly; you're the one who caused this trouble.
Mr. "Angel" looked apologetically at Mr. "Fool" and said, "I didn't expect to suddenly encounter an opportunity to advance to the next rank. I originally wanted to increase my strength after the advancement before making a move, but Miss Justice helped us solve this problem."
You got promoted again?
The Fool's face fell; at that moment, he even hoped that something had really happened to the Angel.
How long has it been since the "Angel" was last promoted? A month? Why the rush?
Alger, the "Hanged Man," looked at the "Angel" with equal surprise. How did he get promoted?
He's been stuck at Sequence 7 for almost two months, and there's still no sign of him being promoted to Sequence 6.
Moreover, "Justice" acted far too quickly; the matter was over while he was still at sea.
"Congratulations, Mr. Angel."
Audrey congratulated her with a smile, and the blonde girl was still in a good mood, feeling that there was nothing wrong with the division of labor.
She didn't do much; she just had Fors and Hugh issue a commission, but the actual assassination was carried out by Mr. A.
"You must have spent a lot of money hiring someone to assassinate him."
"Although Mr. Fool will give you a reward, I'll still offer you a small compensation."
As he spoke, Xia Er stretched out his hand, and brilliant golden light wove together in his palm. These lights gathered together, and with a simple spell-like technique, "Transformation into Paper," three contracts exuding a faint holy aura were quickly completed.
"This is called a fair contract. Once signed and acknowledged, it creates an invisible connection that even a Sequence 5 cannot violate. Even a Sequence 4 demigod would have to pay a considerable price to forcibly breach the contract."
"Your family might need it. There are three in total. You can keep them for yourself or exchange them for some pocket money. It's up to you."
Chael handed the three contracts to Audrey beside him. The compensation was just an excuse; his main purpose was to try out the 'new skill'.
The "angel's" move gave everyone present a slight shock: hand-wrapping a fair contract?
Could this be mass-produced directly?
A contract that can bind a demigod? Is this something that can be mass-produced?
Audrey reached out and took the contracts. She had initially wanted to decline, but seeing the "angel's" relaxed demeanor and nonchalant tone, she realized that these were not particularly valuable items to the angel, so she accepted the small gift.
"Mr. Angel, can this really bind a demigod?"
Audrey was still somewhat incredulous. It was already surprising enough that this contract could bind a Sequence 5, let alone a demigod.
"If a demigod is willing to sit down and sign a contract, then certain restrictions can be imposed."
"I haven't actually tried it myself, and I don't know its specific value. You can keep it for yourself."
Xia'er didn't know either, he hadn't studied it, and he had never really believed in contracts.
"This is already very good."
Audrey touched the lines of the "fair" contract with delight.
The Hall family would definitely find this kind of fair contract useful. They have many employed extraordinary individuals in their household. Although there are no Sequence 5 extraordinary individuals among them, it doesn't mean that this contract is useless. They can collect it as a kind of foundation.
Are angels from the solar pathway?
Alger sensed something was off, and looking at the two who had absolutely no idea of the value, he added:
"Mr. Angel, Ms. Justice, there are many levels of the Fair Contract."
"A contract that can have a certain impact on a demigod is already an extremely rare treasure."
"There is no fixed price. If you find someone who needs it, you can easily sell it for a high price."
As Alger spoke, he looked at the 'angel' with a puzzled expression. Could such a high-level contract be hand-crafted, and in three at once? Could this be an ordinary notary?
"Thank you very much for your answer, but I have no intention of selling it."
Audrey smiled in response, saying that she certainly didn't intend to sell them; she would keep one for herself and give the remaining two to Earl Hall.
The generous Earl of Hall surely wouldn't be stingy with a reward for his precious daughter, would he?
"Oh, right."
Suddenly, Xia Er remembered something. He took a card back from Miss Justice and added some occult symbols to it. These dark red symbols quickly disappeared, and the card looked no different from before.
Audrey looked at the symbols with curiosity, and the others couldn't understand what the "angel" was doing either.
"Well, this is just a small experiment, it might not work."
"I've slightly modified this contract. It doesn't necessarily require a signature or blood oath; perhaps... it can still serve some purpose."
Taking advantage of the cover of the gray fog, Xia Er openly uttered these sinister words.
The entire Tarot room fell silent for a moment.
Although contracts definitely require real-name authentication, a certain "omniscient one" has managed to combine "contracts" with "curses."
Before creating the contract, Shael only intended to make a decent one, but he later discovered there was room for improvement...
The Fool stared at the gleaming golden contract of justice and fell silent. Wasn't this the devil's contract?
You can't just unilaterally break your contract, can you?
Alger was also shocked; he even considered buying one himself.
"Mr. Angel, this is truly a special gift."
Audrey honestly arranged this page of the "Cursed Contract" neatly with the other two pages of the "Just Contract".
Although this kind of prop is somewhat unethical, it should be fine as long as it is not used, right?
Audrey convinced herself of this, deciding to keep the contract to prevent Earl Hall from using it to cheat others, and it was definitely not because she was reluctant to part with it.
She just felt that such dangerous things shouldn't be allowed to circulate.
"Because I added the element of 'curse,' the contract isn't as effective. It will change from a long-term contract into a short-term command. You can directly command the target, as long as you have their blood, flesh, hair, or other similar mediums."
"Because its essence is a contract, you can also 'curse' yourself, issuing a command to yourself that has a mandatory effect."
"You can figure out how to use it yourself, since I made it on a whim."
Xia Er gave a brief description, explaining that this was, after all, only a semi-finished product, with little research or practical value.
"It's just a brief order, not a long-term, mandatory contract."
The atmosphere at the Tarot meeting returned to normal.
Alger felt that the world had returned to a state he could understand.
Mr. Fool put aside his idea of disbanding the group once again.
"Justice" Audrey also relaxed. If it wasn't a contract, then it was useless to Earl Hall; she'd just keep it for herself.
After all, curses sound dangerous and are not suitable for ordinary people.
