Chapter 23 Contract…

Lathel: "..." ( ̄ ̄ |||)

'Why the hell is this name as long as a highway?'

"Okay, Cauldron."

"No! You must call me by my full name, ordinary human, my name is Heavenly... Ah! Wait! Stop, you can call me Cauldron. Don't go!"

Lathel stopped walking, he sighed and said: "Cauldron, actually, I don't want to waste too much time with you, you understand."

"Um... I... I understand." Cauldron said, its voice filled with worry.

"So... what can you do?"

Cauldron smiled and said: "Me? Hahaha... Ouch! No, I won't laugh anymore. Hm... I can help you get everything you want like fame, power, women...etc."

"I can even help you become the lord of this world."

"As long as you sign a contract with me and become my loyal servant, you will have everything. After you die, your soul will forever belong to me, hahaha..."

Hearing that, Lathel immediately turned around and left.

He wasn't stupid. If he were a resident of this world, when he heard what the cauldron said, he would have definitely been extremely interested, and greed would immediately take over his mind.

However, the cauldron was wrong, he was a traveler, a transmigrator who came to this world thanks to another god.

He knew clearly that no one could become the lord of this world except the main character.

Besides... Lathel was not interested in the benefits the Cauldron offered.

Why?

Because he has a 'sign in system', every day, as long as he signs in, he will get a gift.

Lathel believed that if he lives long enough, he will have everything in his hands thanks to the system.

That's why, what the Cauldron said was completely meaningless to him.

Besides... to get what the Cauldron offered, Lathel needed to sell his soul to Cauldron.

Lathel was also not a stupidly greedy person who would sell his soul just for a small gain.

Seeing Lathel turn to leave without hesitation, the cauldron shouted: "Wait! You... don't you need to consider my proposal? You should know that you can become the lord of this world."

"I have no interest in becoming a lord or anything like that." Lathel didn't turn around, he slowly walked towards the door while answering.

"I will help you gain power, fame, women..."

"I will get those things myself with my own abilities."

"You... Okay, I will accept whatever you want, just let me out of here." Cauldron shouted.

Lathel suddenly stopped walking. He glanced at the Cauldron, rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then said: "If I sign a contract with you, after i die, will you take my soul?"

"That's right."

"Hm... strange, what do you need my soul for?"

"To eat!"

Lathel: "..."You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

"What do you eat souls for? Can you only survive by eating souls?"

"Hm... I don't know either. Since I started thinking, I only had one thought in my mind: to find someone to sign a contract with. After that person dies, I will take that person's soul as food."

Lathel rubbed his chin, he looked at the cauldron like a scientist, It was as if he was looking at something strange and he wanted to study it.

"Oy! Your eyes make me feel a little scared." Cauldron shouted.

Lathel did not answer him but continued to ask: "How long have you been here?"

"10,000 years, not 1 year or 10 years." Lathel said: "It's been such a long time, let alone whether a profession is still respected or not, I'm afraid even a country won't last that long."

"But..."

Lathel didn't give the cauldron time to think, as he continued speaking.

"Cauldron, you need to accept this fact. Besides... you said you would turn me into a great Pharmacist Enchanter, but that is a profession that requires talent to learn."

"What if I don't have the ability to become a Pharmacist Enchanter? In that case, the contract between you and I is not fair."

Hearing that, the cauldron felt that thus was extremely reasonable: "So... what do you want?"

Lathel kept his face calm, however, inside he was laughing loudly.

He looked hesitant and was thinking carefully. After a while, Lathel smiled and said: "Okay, I will write out a contract. After you see the contract, you can accept it or not."

"If you don't accept it, it will be as if we've never met. I will leave this place, while you continue to wait for someone who can sign a contract with you, okay?"

The Cauldron didn't even think, as he immediately agreed.

Because Lathel couldn't find paper, he used a wooden stick and wrote in dust on the floor.

The cauldron waited for Lathel to write.

5 minutes...

10 minutes...

20 minutes...

30 minutes...

An hour later, Lathel finally finished writing.

Cauldron looked up at the ground and felt scared: "Is this... that much?"

That's right, on the ground was a document more than 2 meters long and 1 meter wide, it was as if Lathel had just copied a part of the bible onto the ground.

Lathel nodded and smiled and said: "That's right. Don't worry, in short, you will help me with the things you can help me with, then we can go see the outside world together."

"Of course, I won't force you to do extremely difficult things. The things you will help me with are all within your ability."

The Cauldron looked at the contract on the ground and felt a bit of a headache.

"Good! Just read carefully, if you agree, you can tell me." Lathel finished speaking and sat on the ground waiting for the Cauldron.

Cauldron read the contract that Lathel wrote three times, but it felt nothing strange.

Although the contract was long, most of the terms within the contract revolved around the Cauldron not doing anything to harm Lathel.

"Well? Do you accept it?

Hearing Lathel's question, the Cauldron hesitated: "In fact, the contract you just wrote is very perfect, without any holes at all."

"However... I feel like I am at a bit of a disadvantage. I have to help you, and protect you, but you are only helping me visit the outside world."

"Hmm?!" Lathel suddenly frowned: "So... do you want me to do anything more?"

"Ack! Its like this... like this, if you add a condition that... you will help me replenish my energy, then I will immediately sign a contract with you."

"Replenish your energy... How?"

"Simple, I just need to absorb soul energy."
