Chapter 1815: A Contract
"What is this place? Like, is the environment of the entire world the same as this place?"
"This is the Great Mist Boundary. To answer your question, no. There are other places in this world which is different from this. However, the Great Mist Boundary covers half of the world. In fact, it is a usual occurrence for the rest of the world as well. It may not be that often, but at least two to three times, the Great Mist Boundary will cover the entire world every year."
"I see." Nathan nodded and extended his hand, gesturing for Hgahuku to ask his question.
"Where do you come from?"
"I am from a world called Ezhteria from a kingdom called Azilia Kingdom, but I personally am not bound by any influence other than the one I created." Nathan continued with his question. "Where is the other half of the world? Is it far from here?"
"We have ventured quite deep, but it’s not too far. It will probably only take two days if we run."
"The direction?" Nathan asked.
Hgahuku thought for a moment. This question wasn’t exactly a problem since Nathan just wanted clarity from his question.
So, Hgahuku pointed in a certain direction before asking his question, "What is your purpose in coming to this world?"
"I come here to fight against the owner of this creature. It’s not in my world, so I have to cross over a few worlds to reach their world. That’s why I’m not intending to be the enemy of the inhabitants of this world."
Hgahuku felt a bit relieved. Even if Nathan was lying, he shouldn’t be lying about the first part.
Nathan asked, "Do you have any intention of leading us back to your place? I just want more information about this world."
Hgahuku didn’t trust Nathan completely. There was a chance that leading Nathan to his tribe would result in the annihilation of his tribe.
Still, this might be a gamble.
Unexpectedly, Nathan took the initiative to dispel his doubts. He formed a Soul Contract and said, "This is one of my abilities. The contract is absolute. You can test it if you want."
Nathan started writing down a contract.
[Nathan Reckmoon is required to sit within 30 seconds or his heart will feel like it’s burning. If Nathan Reckmoon sits, Hgahukutahum will need to sit within 30 seconds or his heart will feel like it’s burning. Once both sides have sat down once, the contract will be considered completed.]
"I wrote it in your language, so you will be able to understand it. All you need to do is..." Nathan bit his thumb and signed the contract.
Hgahuku felt suspicious at first, but this was indeed the language he was familiar with. He was wondering how Nathan’s language ability worked, but the fact that he could move from one world to another showed his profound ability.
It would be better to test it first so that they could gain some trust in each other. He followed Nathan’s instructions and signed the contract.
After the contract was signed, Nathan immediately sat down.
Hgahuku remained standing for thirty seconds. He wondered if the contract really worked.
The moment the time limit had passed, Hgahuku suddenly fell to his knees while clutching his heart. "Aarrgghhh!"
The others raised their weapons, as they couldn’t allow Nathan to harm them.
Hgahuku endured the pain and raised his hand, asking them to stop. After that, he sat down, and in that instant, the pain disappeared as if it had never existed to begin with.
"!!!" Hgahuku was dumbfounded. He managed to confirm the contract worked, so Hgahuku said, "I will lead you to my tribe, but you need to sign a contract stating that you won’t harm this world or my tribe. You will approach my tribe with goodwill."
"I promise." Nathan formed the contract.
Hgahuku reviewed the contract before agreeing to the terms.
After both of them signed the contract, Hgahuku felt a bit more relieved. "Before I lead you to my tribe, can you wait for a bit? We’re here to bring back a miraculous medicine to help my family."
"You don’t have to. I know someone who has a good healing ability. Even if it’s a curse from a divine being, he will be able to treat it. I’d prefer an equivalent exchange. If you treat me well, I will treat you the same. Maybe I will throw a bonus on top."
"..." Hgahuku looked down, contemplating. He had seen Nathan’s ability, but he wondered if Nathan was indeed that strong.
"What’s wrong?" Nathan asked. "Is the answer not satisfactory?"
"My apologies. I just don’t know your strength."
"In that case, I will show you a bit of my power..." Nathan released a portion of his energy. Of course, he infused his own divinity to increase its power.
The ground started to shake as an unimaginable pressure shook the entire area.
Hgahuku’s body was trembling. His instinct was telling him that death was coming.
’What is this power? A portion of his power? This level of power is just a fraction of his power? What kind of being did we attack earlier?’ Hgahuku felt like he had just made the worst mistake of his life.
Fortunately, the other party was being reasonable, and he managed to sign a contract with him. This way, Nathan wouldn’t hurt him or his family.
The rest of his people, however, completely broke. They fell to the ground, unable to withstand Nathan’s power.
This kind of power was definitely something they had never seen before. They feared for their lives, looking at their foolish actions.
Hgahuku regained his composure after Nathan retracted his power. This level of power was more than enough to convince him. Nathan might have the ability to help him.
So, Hgahuku took a deep breath before saying, "I apologize for attacking you earlier. Please forgive me and my people. If you think that’s not enough, please limit it to my life."
"I’ve signed the contract, so I won’t harm you unless you harm me first, but that’s only if you intend to harm me after we sign the contract. I will ignore the things that happened before the contract."
"I understand. I thank you for your magnanimity. I’ll lead you right away."
"About that." Nathan snapped his fingers, activating the teleportation ability to get out of this place first.
