Selena felt happy because Nathan remembered her words. She said, "For now, I have a plan, and you don't need to do anything. However, this also means that I'll endanger your parents."
Nathan nodded. "Alright. I'll let you handle it. As for my parents, you don't have to worry about it. I'm planning to visit my parents soon. Unfortunately, we can't go on a mission for the time being because I have to go to the Ancient Library of the Fairy Queen, and I have to go alone, according to my teacher.
"I don't know how long it will take, but we can go on a mission together after that. It'll be the mission you pick. I'm planning to visit my parents first before going there."
"I see." Selena looked a bit sad, but she could understand his circumstances.
After seeing her expression, Nathan couldn't help but tease her, "What's wrong? Do you want to follow me? We can't go to the Ancient Library together, but we can visit my parents together. Do you want to visit your in-law?"
"!!!" Selena's heart skipped a beat as her body froze.
"If you go with me, don't you think it can give a clear statement to your family that you don't plan to obey them?" Nathan grinned.
Selena furiously shook her head. "No. My plan is different. Besides, I haven't even agreed to become your significant other."
Nathan chuckled. "What? I'm just teasing you. It's rare to see you being this flustered... or maybe you are expecting it?"
Selena made a small pout but soon smiled. The more she interacted with him, the more her emotions returned. She said, "For now, I don't plan to meet your parents. Since you are planning to leave, it means I can do whatever I want for the next few days. That's why you don't have to worry about me."
"Alright. I'll trust your decision."
"Thank you."
"No. I should be the one thanking you." Nathan smiled, adding inwardly, 'Because of you, my mind feels refreshed. I am uncertain how I feel about my parents in this world, but I'll see it through. And for that, the first thing I need to do is...'
...
"Get off me." Nidhogg shook his body, forcing Fenrir to leap into the bed. Anubis did the same while Nathan sat down on the chair. "I told you it wouldn't work. If you make an agreement with my Ena on the line, you will receive my chaos energy. It might even destroy the contract."
"Is that how it works?" Nathan frowned and created another contract.
'Nathan will lend Fenrir the Deadly Claw for a day for 10 Ena.'
When he saw the contract, Fenrir immediately signed it, but to their surprise, the contract turned red and shattered into pieces.
"This is..." Nathan frowned. Nidhogg's theory was wrong.
Anubis asked, "Was it because your contract is in original form? If it was at a higher level, you probably could do that."
"Or was it because you are forcing the contract? But you didn't force me anything. Even this lizard gave his consent." Fenrir asked.
Nathan fell into deep thought. "I don't know, but this has sealed a lot of possibilities."
"What do you mean?" Fenrir tilted his head in confusion.
"I mean, if there is a powerful enemy, I can use this contract stating that they have to kill themselves, which will allow me to defeat an enemy much stronger than me. Or I can use the contract to force someone to say the truth, which is perfect for interrogation. Sadly, I can't do those things," Nathan explained.
"That might be true. You might want to upgrade your contract again to test it one more time. Or we can probably catch a bad guy to test this... a terrorist will work," Anubis suggested.
"I'm not so sure about it." Nathan crossed his arms. "Nevertheless, it doesn't change the fact that I can't recover my Ena. It seems that there are still a lot of things I need to test."
"Indeed."
Nidhogg asked, "Since you're planning to go to the Ancient Library, why don't you try to find the answers as well?"
Nathan nodded. "Yes. I don't know what I can find from that place, but I'm going to list all the things I want to know. If you also want to find something, tell me about it, since we don't know if I can summon you guys or not in that library."
