Chapter 837 Chapter 837: Possibility
?837 Chapter 837: Possibility
Karyk removed his disguise, trying to prove that he wasn't an Elzerian. By now, he was convinced that she wasn't fond of Elzeria, which made it safe for him to reveal himself.
For him, the enemy of his enemy was a friend. Moreover, it was a friend who wasn't weak either. He needed a force in Elzeria to stop the invasion, and he could see the first step of gathering that force right before his eyes.
Every year, the Beasts attacked the Border City. They couldn't pass through the border defences, but even then, they caused a great loss of life. And that was when the strongest beasts hadn't even attacked the Border City.
Since he had taken control over the Border City now, if he could turn them to his side, it was highly beneficial. The City didn't need to worry about the attack from the beasts, which gave them time to develop. And secondly, he could support these people, using them against Elzeria.
As soon as Karyk removed his disguise, the woman looked at him with a strange look in her eyes, her focus resting on Karyk's eyes.
She moved like a ghost, appearing right before Karyk. She brought her face close to his, looking deep in his eyes. Her face came so close that there remained only an inch of distance between their lips.
Karyk could even feel her warm breath. Although she controlled cold lifeless beings, but she was very much alive. He was curious about her strange behaviour. However, he didn't feel any malice from her so he didn't push her back.
He simply thought that this was because in this world, she hadn't seen anyone other than an Elzerian for a long time, so she was fascinated with the difference.
"Who are you...?" she asked, her face making it impossible to read her thoughts. "Where did you come from?!"
Karyk was glad that at least the conversation was finally beginning. He took a few steps back, creating some distance between them, before he started explaining. The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñøv€l-B1n.
"That would be impossible. He's been long dead," Karyk informed her. He himself hadn't met that guy after all. By the time he even reached the city, the man was long dead.
"I want his corpse..." the woman stated.
She controlled death in this world. Even if she couldn't meet him when he was alive, she was sure she could at least find out what she wanted to know. Even being dead wasn't enough of an excuse for her.
"I'm afraid I can't do that." Karyk refused.
The woman frowned, her eyes turning cold. "Are you saying no to me?"
Karyk lazily nodded before asking, "I think you have a huge misunderstanding. Since when did I start working for you?"
Before the woman could respond, he continued, "Although I believe both of us can use each other, but I won't be making you incharge. Just like I need you, you need me as well."
"Why would I need you?" the woman asked, her eyes looking coldly at him. "Do you think I won't kill you because you're not one of them?"
It had been a long time since someone last refused her. There was only one person who did that and survived. And it was someone she hated the most. And Karyk was doing the same thing.
"Because you hate them more than you can ever hate me," Karyk answered. "You can't have your revenge without me. If you could, you wouldn't be trapped here."
The woman's expressions turned dark, the temperature suddenly dropping. "How do you know I'm trapped here?"
"If you weren't, would Elzeria be having such a peaceful time? With how much you hate them, you wouldn't be hiding here. You would've caused a lot of destruction before being killed. And even if you don't leave, you could've sent the powerful undead under your command."
"At first, I was curious why you only sent the weaker beasts. But it all makes sense when I think of the possibility."
