Tale of the Red Dragon Without Dragon's Might-Chapter 440 - 434: Who Kidnapped Whom
Chapter 440: Chapter 434: Who Kidnapped Whom
Exquisite delicacies from various planes, skilled massage services, and those thrilling entertainment projects... Indeed, the lavish Hell Bliss City is intoxicating, but Leon didn’t linger long in Aphnas; he quickly activated the Plane Talisman and left.
"Wait, just wait, he’ll be back soon."
Returning to Border’s Gate, back to Charis’s embrace, Leon saw Worth standing in the hallway with arms outstretched to block the main group, hoping they would wait for Rafael, as Rafael holds Orpheus’s Hammer, which is key to saving the Comet Prince.
Couldn’t it be when he was ransacking the House of Hope, that Rafael was negotiating with the main group in Charis’s embrace?
Thinking of this, Leon couldn’t help but laugh out loud, jumping in, and said, "Glad to see you all."
"Who are you?" Evil Thought gripped the wand behind his back, cautiously looking at Leon.
"My name is Leon." Leon slightly bowed, introducing himself.
Will, with curved horns on his forehead, furrowed his brows, muttering to himself, "Leon... I seem to have heard this name somewhere... Impossible, you can’t be him; it’s just the same name."
Yes, that powerful Red Dragon doesn’t live in Toril, such a god-like figure couldn’t just appear in front of everyone.
"Who?" Leon asked with interest, "Who can’t I be?"
"Enough!" Worth interrupted impatiently, with the crisp clash of metal from his Githyanki-style armor following his movements. "Human, can’t you see we’re discussing serious matters? You’d better be brief, don’t delay us."
Leon slowly cleared his throat and said, "Rafael can’t come for now."
"What did you say?" Worth’s expression changed drastically upon hearing this, his voice suddenly rising, attracting the attention of passersby.
"But I can trade with you on his behalf." Leon crossed his arms, "Isn’t it Orpheus’s Hammer you want? That hammer is now in my hands."
"From your tone, you seem not to be Rafael’s lapdog or servant." Will rubbed the hilt, looking Leon up and down, trying to find some clue from him, "If you’re not his servant, who exactly are you, and where did you get Orpheus’s Hammer? Could it be there are several hammers?"
Of course, he wouldn’t think that he wouldn’t figure out that the man in front of him had just ransacked Rafael’s mansion.
"Orpheus’s Hammer isn’t some Divine Artifact; it’s merely forged from precious metals Rafael collected; it’s possible to have several, but this one of mine..." Leon chuckled, "I’ve introduced myself, I am Leon... I know what you want to know, and I happen to know Bell."
"Bell?" Will’s face suddenly changed, unconsciously stepping back half a step, "Damn, I’d rather face Rafael, that narcissist."
Upon hearing this, Worth immediately stepped forward, his face slightly flushed with excitement.
As a Githyanki, he might have many flaws, but his loyalty to the Comet Prince was undeniable, saying, "You have Orpheus’s Hammer in your hand? Please give it to me, I’m willing to do anything for you."
"I want something you can’t give." Leon’s gaze left Worth and landed on Evil Thought, having always played Evil Thought in the game, unexpected to face Evil Thought directly, the feeling was quite peculiar, "I want Karsus Crown and Nether Stone."
"Why does everyone want those things..." Gael couldn’t help but interject, as he had a mission from the Magic Goddess, whose target was Karsus Crown, "I don’t think handing Karsus Crown and Nether Stone to a devil is a good idea."
"In fact, Karsus Crown has always been in Great Demon Mephisto’s Treasure Vault, without any issues..." Leon slowly paced, giving Evil Thought a deep glance, "until it was stolen by someone."
"It is evident that Karsus Crown is better off in the devil’s hands than in anyone else’s." Leon spread his hands, making a helpless gesture, "Right, being new to Border’s Gate, you might not know the Witchcraft Grocery Store was completely ransacked."
"Without the Karsas Annals, having Karsus Crown won’t benefit you at all." Leon watched Gael, "Instead of handing it to your old flame, who intends for you to self-destruct, agreeing to give it to me, I will help you win."
"If you think the stakes aren’t high enough or the deal isn’t worthwhile." Leon looked at Karak, at the glowing Hell Engine, "Your heart was replaced with a Hell Engine by Tizazhrel, and I happen to have blueprints; if modified according to the blueprints, I guarantee your Hell Engine can run smoothly on the Material Plane."
"Are you serious?" Karak stepped forward abruptly, the patterns on his crimson skin flashing intensely.
Leon didn’t directly answer, he continued, "Finally, I don’t need your contract, you don’t have to worry about me pulling tricks on the Purgatory Contract, causing your souls to fall into Hell; you can very well back out, as long as you are prepared to bear my wrath."
"You aren’t a devil." Will affirmed, "Devils only trust in Purgatory Contracts."
"I never said I am a devil." Leon shrugged.
"If not a devil." Will took a deep breath, "I support this transaction."
"Me too." Karak eagerly shouted, his eyes gleaming with hope.
