Wait... what are you saying?
ah?
The stargazer, unaware of Ariana's thoughts, continued to ask:
"The prophet bears a greater mission, and he cannot be tempted by you."
Demons are not easy to talk to; they cannot be changed without paying a sufficient or even excessive price.
"What do you need? The power to help you recover? Or some special items?"
Ariana: (Cat looking confused.gif)
To be honest, Ariana really didn't expect this turn of events, not at all.
What is all this?!
She remained silent, speechless and shocked, but to the stargazer, it seemed that the price she had offered was not enough, and he wanted to raise more.
How greedy!
After a moment's thought, the stargazer made up his mind and calmly said:
"The person you're making a deal with will become me."
"How do you feel about my body?"
Is this satisfactory?
Ariana's shocked expression changed, and she looked at the stargazer with surprise, not expecting him to be so determined.
Are they really willing to pay such a price for Ning Feng?
"Although she looks very thin, the body hidden under her clothes is surprisingly sexy... No! You really don't understand?"
That's not right!
How did it turn out like this?
I just wanted to use that as a way to start a conversation!
Where's your sense of humor?!
Have they lost contact?
Ariana stood up, utterly perplexed, and gave the stargazer a strange look.
Ariana ran up to the stargazers with a pattering sound, then looked them around rather rudely.
Then, she was shocked.
!
!
"Wow!"
With wide eyes, Ariana discovered the most interesting thing that had happened recently.
It wasn't that the other party lacked a sense of humor; this legendary being, whose lifespan was at least a thousand years, actually didn't understand what he had just said.
"Wow!
!
Hearing the even louder exclamations, the stargazer frowned slightly.
She suddenly felt that the demon, who had turned into a black cat, was looking at her in a much stranger way.
It was as if they were looking at some rare and precious treasure.
...Did I say something wrong?
"The price isn't enough?"
If even one's own body isn't enough, then there might not be many people in this world who can afford to pay a higher price.
The other party is becoming increasingly greedy.
"No, no, no, it's not about whether the price is high enough."
Returning to its previous relaxed state, the black cat simply lay down lazily on the table in front of the stargazer, its tail patting the table.
“I refuse you not because of the price you want to pay, but because the contract has already been established, and you have no right to inspect it.”
"And... I already received enough compensation."
He believed in me, and I believed in him.
Isn't that enough?
That's enough.
Suddenly, as if showing off, Ariana tapped the table lightly with her tail and laughed.
"Oh, right! I haven't told you yet, but my relationship with him is much closer than you think!"
There was a rare gentleness in his tone, and the black cat smiled, his whiskers twitching.
"He is my contractor, and half of him already belongs to me."
And my other half already belongs to him.
My eyes are his eyes.
His fate is my fate.
This matter was decided from the very beginning.
"You will never get an answer to this, because there is no answer."
silence.
The stargazers remained silent.
Eyes imbued with divinity gazed at the darkness before him, attempting to see the truth within the abyss.
After a long while, she finally withdrew her gaze, not only acknowledging the black cat's words but also deciding to remain silent for the time being.
"...Then what is the purpose of your visit?"
If it's not for those reasons, then what is your purpose in showing up this time?
The will of the gods is unfathomable.
Playing mind games with these almost godlike demons is no easy task; it's better to just ask them directly, as they are unlikely to stoop to lying.
"Ugh, this is so boring! Alright, alright, let's just get straight to the point."
The black cat stretched out its front paws, arched its body, and lazily stretched.
"I just wanted to see you, since you've been observing him."
From the moment Ariana descended through the altar set up by the succubus, she was able to notice the gazes of others; there was someone secretly observing Ning Feng.
Ariana originally wanted to secretly find a place for her little friend, but now it seems there's no need for that.
It wasn't a look of malice, but rather one of prayer and hope, expecting him to demonstrate his abilities.
Moreover, judging from her willingness to sacrifice herself as a price just now...
The stargazers had higher expectations of Ning Feng than they had imagined.
"Well! Let's just say hello as a first meeting! Anyway, we'll probably see each other again~"
The black cat blinked, then suddenly said meaningfully:
"Speaking of which, are you really so sure he is the 'Prophet'? What if he isn't actually the 'Prophet'?"
If not, then all your efforts will have been in vain.
And the stargazer's answer was without hesitation:
"Yes, he is."
Is that so...?
Having received the answer, the black cat was quite satisfied with the meeting.
