Chapter 354

    There are often only two kinds of people who trade with the devil. The first, and the most common, are the guys in desperate situations. The hopelessness here does not simply refer to the situation between life and death, because even the devil can not grasp the moment before death. The so-called desperate situation varies from person to person. People who are used to luxuriant clothes and food can''t accept the life after losing their property. This is his hopeless situation. The people in high positions can''t allow their rights to be taken away and become the existence that everyone can be deceived. There are also those who are addicted to love net and the lovers who are separated in life and death. These people''s hopelessness may still have a chance to live through, but when It is clear to the people that this is their death. Even if the body can survive in a desperate situation, they are no longer what they were yesterday. The devil is keen on trading with such people. They don''t think about what they have to pay to get back what they have lost.


    As for the second kind of people, in the class of the Lord of the grey tower, the grey robed mage calls them pigs. These people who think they are smart enough to tease the devil, or their negotiation skills and writing skills can play games with those traders who have been relying on Contracts for many years. If the first kind of person is sympathetic, then the second kind is totally incurable. They are greedy, arrogant, short-sighted and pretentious. To be honest, even the devil doesn''t like to trade with these people. Their souls are too empty to eat.


    What''s interesting is that although Clark belittles the two kinds of people who trade with the devil, he doesn''t forbid the apprentices of grey tower from trading with the devil. He even set up a separate examination, forcing every apprentice to call on the devil to make a deal. Cheese still remembers that examination. Although every examination in the grey tower would cause the death of the apprentice, that one was especially frequent. The reason why cheese passed the exam was because anlina told him something. "Although devils are the worst traders, they are also the most disciplined traders. They must abide by the rules of trading, that is, exchange for equal value." So the mage''s deal with the devil he summoned was to ask him to pass him a glass of water. As the price of troubling the inferior noodle merchant, he invited the other party to have a sumptuous dinner, so that the evil devil who did not need to eat tasted the delicacy of the common people.


    Therefore, cheese''s experience in dealing with the devil is never to ask too much, and always do a lot of planning to pay more than get. Grasping these two points, it is not impossible to deal with the devil. When the scene returns to the conversation in front of him, the mage''s body is obviously relaxed when he hears the smiling man mentioning the broker, because it shows that the other party can trade with him. Compared with the price to pay, cheese is more afraid that even the devil''s mouth can not get the answer he wants.


    "Now that you''ve mentioned the subject, we can talk about it by the way." The master shrugged and said in a casual tone.


    This time, it was the smiling man''s turn to be silent. He didn''t expect that the novice wizard would reply in this tone. According to the devil''s conjecture, the main purpose of cheese calling himself should be to inquire about the broker''s information. However, due to the magic protection of the mage, he could not know the real mood of cheese. Of course, the devil is confident in his own inference. He believes that the wizard is just bluffing. However, the other party is the disciple of Clark. What if he really heard about the broker?


    "Hey, hey, it''s fun. Did you mean it? If so, I''m afraid I''ll have to reconsider my business relationship with you. " The voice under the smiling face mask can''t tell the emotion, but even if the voice reveals the meaning of being angry, I''m afraid the mage will not take it seriously.


    "Why, I don''t want you to think about other people all day." Cheese showed a "sincere" smile, "I just wonder, if this broker is really so powerful, why do you still dare to sell me his information? As far as I know, all the things that can be referred to by the word "he" are sensitive to their own privacy. Are you not afraid of his revenge? "


    The man behind the chair chuckled, "this kind of temptation is better avoided. Let me show you my sincerity. I can answer you for free. " Although the devil''s mouth of "free" expressed total distrust, but cheese or to listen to what this guy can say, so did not stop the other party''s meaning. "The Lord, the broker you speak of, is of course strong enough to control the disclosure of his information, but perhaps out of self-confidence or other considerations, he did not. No matter where we are or here, he will not prohibit others from mentioning him


    "But on the other hand, no matter how much you know about this man, you can''t escape from his hand." When the devil finished, he moved his face away from the mage''s ear. The last word, which was like warning and persuasion, echoed in cheese''s mind for a few seconds before slowly disappearing. "Now, are you going to ask me about brokers? Mr. cheese. "


    "Can''t my teacher?" Asked the mage suddenly. In fact, cheese is not sure whether the gray tower owner and the broker have ever met, but strong and knowledgeable people like Clark will not believe that he has not contacted this notorious guy.


    "Oh, interesting question." The smiling man said, "I''m almost going to tell you the answer. However, since answering your question will affect our future business, I''m sorry I won''t say that. If you''re interested, we can do a separate deal to trade this information. Trust me, you won''t be disappointed. Hey, hey. "Cheese raised eyebrows, the devil''s words can only believe one point, and that point still needs to distinguish lies. Perhaps his teacher did deal with brokers, but mages tend to believe that this is the trick of the other side to lure him. "I''ll have a chance to ask him directly, Mr. devil. How about going on with the subject?"


    "Certainly, but with all due respect, we don''t have much time. If you want to summon the same devil twice in a short time, you can''t do it with the blood of a goat. There are not many traders like me who are honest with each other. " The candle soaked with goat blood has been burned down more than half unconsciously, while the setting sun outside the window has not yet set.


    Cheese is crooked. The deal has been paved enough, and it''s time to get to the point. "Tell me, then, what can you tell me? And what do you want me to pay for? "


    "Hey hey, smart question. If you don''t think you can catch my words, you can attack directly. It seems that you haven''t put all your intelligence into the study of boring magic The devil laughs and takes out a roll of parchment from his black sleeve and throws it gently in front of cheese. The paper floats and stretches in the air.


    "Look carefully. This is the contract I wrote while you were negotiating with the witch. By the way, you''ve done a good job. I guess the girl named Emilia can''t resist the temptation to be completely free from the pursuit. You are likely to have a permanent ally in this kingdom. Have you ever thought about looking for a job with us after you die? I''d be happy to introduce you to a good boss. "


    "No, to be a devil is to plan these boring deals behind other people''s buttocks all day long, just like you. I can''t accept that. " The cheese replied as he quickly read the words on the parchment. Most of the deal was ok, and some were too good for the mage, but soon cheese pointed to one of them and asked, "what''s the matter with three mortal souls?"


    "It''s just the souls of three mortals. It''s not difficult to ask our noble grey robed mage to be a killer to kill three mortals who can''t spell? As for the three mortal souls, I will tell you after signing the contract. Don''t worry, I''m not interested in the northerner and the little witch around you The devil said softly.
