Danmaku, my skills refresh weekly.

Rudra sensed it carefully...

Ok……

Ok?

Ah!

hiss--

Hmm? Something's not right, this is weird, let me check again...

hiss----

A moment later, Lou Tuoluo gasped sharply.

"You...you, you're actually telling the truth?! How is that possible?"

He sized Charles up and down, repeating, "You're actually telling the truth?!"

Chapter 9: Add money!

The contradictions within Charles greatly shocked Rudra.

His so-called 'beloved family and friends' were lying right under his feet, yet he could still swear such an oath and say such things.

Generally speaking, the only way to deceive a deity is to be mentally deranged or hypnotized.

If this god knew that the 'beloved family and friends' that Ciel used were not actually positive terms, then he would understand him.

"Hmph... Hmph hmph hahahahahahahaha—"

Lou Tuoluo laughed heartily, covering his face as if he had discovered a wonderful toy.

Just like his divine role, he is both the embodiment of violence and the benevolent god of healing and saving lives; his very existence is extremely contradictory. Rudra is also a divine name shared by dozens of gods.

In the future, when Ryu, corrupted by hatred and driven to revenge, is faced with the same invitation, he extends an invitation. In his eyes, Ryu, burdened with justice yet consumed by hatred and immersed in slaughter, is exactly to his liking.

at the moment……

"Interesting, you're so funny."

"I can't see through you at all!"

“Your loved ones told me that this is not a deal that cannot be negotiated.”

"Tell me... what do I have to do to make you join my family and become my child?"

Faced with Rudra's renewed offer, Charles did not give a direct answer:

"Even if I agree to change your family, it's pointless. Can you even get my god to give his approval?"

Rudra shrugged and spread his hands: "You misunderstood. It's not about you joining my clan immediately. You can stay in your clan for now, and I'll contact you when necessary. Don't worry, it won't be long before I make your god unable to speak."

"As long as you cooperate."

"Then you won't have to stay in those junkyards anymore. You'll have a wider sky and greater power! Oh, and you won't have to pick up these scrap metal anymore."

As he spoke, Lou Tuoluo reached into his robes, pulled out a dagger with a blood-red blade, and tossed it aside.

"Take it."

Charles glanced at the gleaming dagger on the ground, then bent down and picked it up.

Seeing his handsome face clearly reflected on the crimson blade, along with the evil aura emanating from it, he couldn't help but feel a surge of attraction.

This is……

“A cursed weapon! Be careful, if you get scratched, even healing magic can’t cure it,” Rudra explained.

Upon hearing this, Charles abandoned his idea of ​​testing the sharpness of his armor and looked up:

"what do you want to do?"

"Just tell us some trivial information when necessary. For example, where your main god likes to go."

"Who? You want me to betray Lord Soma? Don't you know he's my adoptive father?"

Lou Tuoluo said indifferently, "Although I like you very much, the organization is not something I can control alone, so... you need to show some value."

"This is my sincerity towards you." Lou Tuoluo pointed at the dagger.

Charles toyed with the dagger in his hand, remaining silent.

“I was born into the Soma Familia…”

Lou Tuoluo glanced around at the charred corpses: "Someone like you wouldn't care about these things, would you?"

"Besides... the Soma Familia? With your abilities, how can you let that kind of Familia hold you back?"

Charles carefully used the strip of cloth from his trouser leg to tightly bind the dagger, and then carefully put it away.

"You misunderstand, Lord Rudra."

"Your words have cleared my mind and enlightened me. However, I was born into the Soma clan and have been 'cared for' by Lord Soma since childhood. He is truly my second father!"

After a pause, Charles gritted his teeth and stamped his foot, looking as if he had suffered a great injustice, and said:

"Okay, more money please!"

Upon hearing this, Lou Tuoluo was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, clutching his stomach.

"Hey, you... hahaha, you're really something! Okay! How much do you want?!"

Charles thought for a moment and held up five fingers: "Five..."

"Good! Five million Fali!" Rudra clapped his hands, and a red-haired cat-man adventurer emerged from the shadows of the corridor.

It is none other than the leader of the Rudrakalpa Regiment in the main series, who was stabbed three times and had six holes in him with a dagger by Ryu, yet was still alive and kicking—[Slave Cat] Jaluo.

He stared at Charles with a cold gaze for a few seconds, then said in a low voice, "Lord Rudra, we brought 600 million Fali with us this time. This is to replenish the funds for slaves."

"Enough talk. Here you go!"

Jaluo paused, then gave Xia Er a cold stare before pulling a large leather bag from his backpack and tossing it at Xia Er.

Charles looked down at his hand, which was holding up five fingers, and then at the small burlap sack at his feet. It was filled with bright yellow fariaires in large denominations.

No... you really want to give it to me?

I only meant to say 50, but I didn't expect it to increase tenfold!

Sharl tossed the package containing the recycled magic stones into a sack and then casually tucked it into his robes. The dwarf's large armor perfectly accommodated the bundle.

A rustling noise came from afar.

It seems that the screams of Ganu and the others earlier had attracted the attention of some adventurers.

"It's those righteous bitches coming," Jaluo warned.

Lou Tuoluo glanced at Xia Er with satisfaction and said, "I will take responsibility for the crimes here. Remember, I need you to climb up the ranks, at least within three months, to the management of the clan. When that time comes, I will send someone to find you! Don't forget."

"no problem!"

Don't blame my godfather, he's given me so much!

A true man dwells between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for long!

Charles shrugged, hoisted his equipment, and walked away past Lou Tuoluo.

"Three months is too long. One month! I want your people to come find me in a month! I'll give you a big gift!"

"Oh..."

As he watched the Charles gradually disappear into the distance, Rudra's interest grew even stronger.

Jaluo, with a smirk of confusion, asked:

"Lord Rutuo, is it necessary to waste so much breath on that kind of good-for-nothing?"

"Don't underestimate him just because he's only level 1; he's no pushover." Lou Tuoluo said with a half-smile.

"Ruthless, greedy, and cunning. Most importantly, he has enormous potential. He can wipe out a small monster feast in an instant; such strength is rare even at level 2. Furthermore, killing people yields more experience points than killing monsters! Someone like him will quickly achieve advancement!"

"Although we have a large number of people, we don't have many cadres who have been promoted..."

"Even so, is it really necessary to give away 500 million Fali all at once? For those low-level members of the clan, 50 Fali would be enough to make them risk their lives." Jala asked, puzzled.

"What do you know? This is called winning people over with virtue."

Lou Tuoluo's gaze deepened: "More importantly, he wasn't surprised at all when he saw you, and he showed no fear whatsoever. This means that he still has some trump cards up his sleeve that we don't know about."

"At least it's a trump card that can escape from your grasp! Is it magic?"

Jaluo's eyes widened: "Impossible! I'm level 3! Let alone crossing two levels, even if we were at the same level, I would never let him get away!"

Lou Tuoluo narrowed his eyes: "That's the problem! If he doesn't agree to my request, I really want you to test him. If this kind of person can't be used by us, then he will inevitably be our greatest enemy in the future."

He chuckled, "Somo? Hahaha... It's truly unimaginable how such a freak could suddenly appear among those shut-in kids. And... of all things, he ended up in my hands!"

"Soma... he's confused!"

Jaluo hesitated: "What if it isn't?"

Lou Tuoluo flicked her gold earring: "That's just a casual move, but it has its own purpose."

Jaluo tilted his head: "Why don't we give him a try?"

"Oh?"

Jaluo grinned: "I sent people to 'hunt him down.' After all, how can he prove his innocence if he doesn't actually escape from us?"

Lou Tuoluo wasn't angry. He put his hands behind his back, turned around, and disappeared into the dark alley: "Then... let's wait and see."

Chapter 10 Updated! Skill: Fragile College Student

"Damn it, how did we end up running into a madman from the Dark Faction at a time like this?!"

Once out of Rudra's sight, Charles, suppressing his wildly pounding heart, remained unable to calm down for a long time. His apparent confidence just now was mostly an act.

"This reminds me of secretly unclogging the drain for my sister-in-law in front of my older brother. How exciting!"
