Chapter 608: Contract

"Well…" Theo scratched the back of his head while making an awkward face. He never thought Agata would come to visit at this time. "How are you?"

"I'm good. I have been thinking about your proposal." Agata's expression became serious as Theo couldn't see whether it was good news or not.

However, he prepared for the worst as he recalled the rules he placed on her a few days ago.

At that time, he was sitting in front of her while giving her the written contract. "This is the contract."

Agata raised her eyebrows and took a look with great interest. She was shocked by the content.

Theo summarized the contract by raising five fingers. "To put it simply, I am going to require you to trust me in my plan. Of course, I am obliged to give you the information and my thoughts regarding my decision if I have the time. You also can't tell it to other people no matter if they're your parents, best friends, or any other parties."

"That's acceptable." Agata nodded. "I can understand that you won't do something meaningless, so I don't really mind. However, some of your plans play with lives, so I would like to add the fact you can't easily play with it.

"I mean, becoming bait if necessary is okay, but if it's not necessary, I would like you to refrain from making that decision."

"Sure." Theo nodded with a serious expression before pointing at his middle finger. "Second, you're going to help me compile the information that I want. This includes the information for my next mission, other people, and such.

"If necessary, you can even use your family's influence or your own influence to acquire this information."

"That's quite time-consuming, but I can agree." Agata nodded.

"Great. The third one is you hiding your identity. In other words, you can't tell anyone that you're THE Agata Mota. I hope that you can use your illusion to change your appearance too."

"Well, I am here as Agata Mota, not the most beautiful woman in Italy. Without a doubt, I will agree. Besides, I don't want my appearance to seduce you or something. I want you to speak with your heart, not your eyes." Agata smiled.

"Thank you." Theo smiled back.

"Good. What's next?"

"The next clause is about you agreeing to live in my house. I can't promise much, but this will be easier for you to reach out to me and discuss many things. Of course, you can go back to your house, but I can only give you two days every month.

"I also promise that I won't do anything to you. If I do something like that, there is a clause stating that." Theo nodded with a serious expression.

Agata was the most beautiful woman in Italy or the world, so her reputation would take a massive hit if they knew she was living with Theo.

There was also a concern that Theo tried to push her down by using this contract.

However, Agata simply nodded her head. "Okay. As long as you don't forbid me from contacting my family members, it's good."

"If you can refrain yourself from reporting anything that happens in the house, then okay. Of course, if you think it's excessive, then it's fine to do it. After all, I don't want to confine you in this mansion."

"Fair enough." Agata agreed.

"Last but not least, since you're not a part of the family, you won't have any mission. So, we're going to hunt and do missions together, from domestic missions to international missions. You're going to help me with all that stuff."

"Hoh?" Agata thought for a moment. "Suppose I agree with all these conditions, what benefit will I get?"

"I promise you that it's an equivalent exchange. You can also get stronger together with me, learning about tricks and stuff. And maybe… gathering information about me for your family or something."

"That's all?"

"Of course not. There are more. Although I can't say how much you will get because I haven't prepared all those things, I can assure you that you won't regret the total reward."

"Also, I will give you five hundred million Zils every year and you will have the ownership of all the monsters you killed. If I need them, I will negotiate with you." Theo extended his hand. "That's all. What do you think?"

"As expected… Without knowing the reward, it's gonna be hard for me to decide. However, I know that you won't cheat me, so it's tempting. Also, I want to know about the time limit of this contract."

"Until I leave this country… Not for missions or other similar stuff of course." Theo nodded.

"Okay. I understand your contract. I want to add another condition. I won't be involved if you're planning to harm my family or the church, including my best friend."

"No problem."

"That's all. Unfortunately, I can't give you the answer right away." Agata shook her head helplessly.

"Good enough. When you have your answer, do contact me. I expect the answer to come within a week." Theo extended his hand.

Agata shook his hand as they went separate ways.

Recalling how unfair that contract was, Theo thought she was about to reject it. But she wouldn't go all the way to his house if she wanted to reject him. That was why Theo didn't know what answer she would give him.

The two remained silent for a while, making the situation very awkward.

Suddenly, Agata pulled the contract from her bag and handed it to him.

"After considering the pros and cons, I have decided to accept your invitation. But I need three days to bid goodbye to my family, move my stuff to this place, and prepare all the necessities. Is that alright?"

"Of course. We're not going to do anything big for the next few days, so feel free." Theo smiled and received the contract.

"Alright. Thanks." Agata smiled.

When she was about to turn around, Ava leaped on top of Theo's shoulder as she spoke in human language.

"Theo. I can now speak to her like this, right?"

"!!!"
