No! No! No! Caden swore inwardly as he began to rack his brain for something. He needed some way to get out of this. He couldn't die today, not like this, not without any purpose, and surely, not without doing anything that he set out to do. He then remembered something crucial about Liam. That was right. This man had trust issues. He had heard about the slave contracts that he had offered the two women and the sensation it had created back in the game. "Wait. Wait. Wait. What if I signed a slave contract?" "Huh?" Liam once again paused his actions. "You want to be my slave?" He raised a brow. "Yes. Yes. I will be your slave. So wait." "You are willing to go that far just to continue living? Some would say death is better than the life of a slave, you know?" Caden smiled ruefully. "You might not trust me, but I truly do believe in you. I know deep down you are not a bad person. You are just like me. You want to save everyone too." "Heh. No. I really don't think so. Things like saving the world are too tedious for me. I am satisfied with saving just a handful. That is more than enough for me." Caden sighed. "Even so… you will only benefit from having someone like me at your beck and call." "Meh. I don't care." It was almost as if Liam was hellbent on being stubborn and sending him off today. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚 pαndα`noν?1~сoМ "Fine. You might not want to heed my warning or trust my intentions, then let me talk in the language that someone like you will understand. Power!" "Give me your hand. I will use my skill for you and tell you how to become more powerful!" "If you are satisfied with my services, then in exchange, please consider allowing me to become your slave." Liam shook his head in amusement. "It seems you really are desperate. Fine. I will give you another chance. Go ahead." He extended his hand toward the Oracle, and the other party instantly grabbed it. This was his lifeline, so he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and used everything that he had learned so far to divine the bastard's fate lines. To make things difficult, all his skills were also gone, so he had to relearn everything. Ding! Ding! Ding! A series of notifications continuously rang out as the Oracle used his mind to gather the divine energy in the vicinity. Unlike the elements of nature that were in abundance, the divine element was not that easy to gather. However, a small amount of divine energy was enough to rival the power of elements of nature. And it looked like Caden was well-versed in this. Liam could feel his skin prickle as he set to work. A frown appeared on his face. "Don't bother trying anything. Even if I sense a small thing amiss, I will immediately send you off." He warned. However, it looked like the other party could not even hear him. He was in some sort of deep trance, and a couple of minutes passed by just like this. Finally, he flashed his eyes open after ten whole minutes. "I have something for you!" Caden gasped for air, his chest heaving with each ragged breath. As the guy was quite skinny and also very naked, one could clearly see his ribcage and the bones that lined it. It seemed that the skill had really taken a lot out of him. But he did not seem to mind it at all. He let out a sigh of relief, his body trembling with the adrenaline of the close call. He appeared very confident that what he had was enough to let him off the hook, and this made Liam extremely curious. "Speak." He said, his eyes shining with interest. "Yes, Mr. Liam. I indeed have something that is going to be extremely beneficial for you. What I am about to say is going to change your whole life." "Hmmm?" "I can lead you to an individual who will become your greatest ally, who will stand by your side until the very end and help you soar to new heights." "Ally?" Liam's interest was definitely piqued. He tried to think of whom this person could be talking about, and nobody came to his mind except for one person. Derek? Could he be talking about Derek? Liam's heart palpitated. "Yes. I can take you right now. In fact, we need to leave at once. Time is of the essence, for that person may not remain in one place for long." "Okay." Liam agreed. He knew very well that there was a huge possibility that all of this could be a trap. He also knew that the person might be plotting just for the sake of escaping from him. But for Derek, he had to take this chance. He might or might not end up becoming the cause of the destruction of this world. He could care less about it. What he cared about was Derek's safety and bringing him back home. So even if there was a small chance that all of this was true, he had to take it. As if he could read Liam's thoughts, Caden quickly added. "I swear upon the mana that flows through us. What I am telling you is the absolute truth. You can trust me." "Hmmm? We will see about that." Liam indifferently said. Caden knew better, so he did not bother wasting any more time in trying to convince him. Instead, he got straight to the point. "We need to go to Botswana. The person whom we are seeking is currently there." He said. "Botswana? You mean they are near us right now?" Liam was surprised. They were also in Africa at the moment, so he couldn't believe that Derek could be so close to him! "Let's go." He immediately clapped his hands, and the next moment a white fox appeared out of nowhere. "Luna…" Caden gasped. This was the first time he was seeing this famed white fox in person, that too, this closeup. On the other hand, Luna had a big scowl on her face seeing the naked human being. "Ugly." She directly commented without holding back her tongue. Caden's face twitched. Not that long ago, he was revered as a god by everyone he met with. Countless men and women were both attracted to him because of his purity and holiness, and now this fox was commenting about his looks. His fate had really taken a turn for the worse. *** Mass Release Chapter 3~ Please thank KingRig for sponsoring this mass release!
