"So... lets make a deal" Kylo asked with a devilish smile.
Indeed what Kylo offered was a deal.
He knows he cannot make the snake submit to him like he did with Avery. Initially he had plans for using him as his pet but
[A royal family would not submit no matter how dire a situation is or how much benefits they get...]
That is why even with Avery's father he made a deal. Even though he knew he might be on the losing side, he would rather make a deal than becoming a servant.
[And this runt is a genius as well...]
Yes! A 20 something year old teen with that much power cannot be compared with normal genius.
He might have resources since he is a royal.
He might have bloodlines and physique as a Vasuki descendant.
But he needs hard work. And with being a royal descendant he needs to handle pressure and meet the expectations.
He needed to become a role model for all the young generation in his peers. And cultivation is not the only thing he had to do.
He was the next successor of the throne. Indeed it might have not have been announced, but with all his reputation and strength it would be strange if he was not announced as the next successor.
He had a lot to learn about everything else besides cultivation. So he had lesser time to cultivate than others in his peers.
And above everything else he also had to deal with his brothers who were also aiming for the throne scheming all the time.
And despite all of this he always remained at the top among his peers.
And that was the reason why only he from the royal family escaped when everyone was at war.
[After all even I was not at that level when I was at his age. Maybe his father was even stronger than the peak me?]
And above everything else.
[He is a descendant of one of the hachi ryuu-ou...]
They are dragons! What is hachi ryuu-ou? They are nobles among dragons!! They can only be treated with respect.
[Making a deal is pretty good already.]
Had it been normal days, it would have been difficult even to have a meeting with them.
It was not like Kylo was weak. But even if no one knew the truth or it maybe it was just rumours, there were rumours that Dragons from other places supported them.
Indeed dragons ceased to exist in their world. But as descendant of nobles among dragons, everyone would have some kind of support.
[That is why the royals of Nagaduniya were treated with respect.]
And Nigel had to anyways spend time for atleast next 2 decades with Avery whereas Avery has to be with Kylo for lifetime.
And the reason Nigel had to spend 2 decades with Avery was because.
[He made a dao oath after all...]
Everything was perfect.
The only thing Kylo needs now is safety. Safety precautions against the snake. Kylo does not have much idea about his bloodlines and physiques of a royal Vasuki.
And the reason he needs safety precautions was because
[Once everyone is in danger he would first save little Avery.]
What he wants was turning Nigel's first priority from Avery to himself!
Kylo was thinking over this issue when Nigel asked further with a suspicious voice "What deal?"
After all Nigel already knew this guy was a devil. And his father always said. 'Trust your enemy. But never trust a devil'.
And that was because unlike other races who each had their on beliefs, Devils had none.
(Author Note:- For beliefs, pease revisit chapter 30.)
Even if they had any, no one knew. Their personalities clashed.
Perhaps Kylo felt his suspicion he put a gentle smile on his face. The kind of smile that would faint Avery had she been conscious.
Kylo just shook his head and said "You see, our situation is pretty much the same.
We both were in war. We both were attacked by multiple enemies. We both arrived in this world.
Is this mere coincidence? No! It is fate!! It is destiny!!!
We were destined to meet in this world!
So shouldn't we work together and help each other in need. We both have many enemies to defend against.
And we both are nothing compared to our past. So we can go on adventures together and get strong on the way.
And once we are strong enough to defend ourselves we can go each other's way. Anyways, you are talented enough, given that you are a Vasuki royal descendant.
A Vasuki descendant and a Devil emperor. I doubt there are many things which can stop us from getting what we want.
This way we can increase the chances of our survival and maybe... we can get what we want as well."
Nigel was stunned for a second by the eloquence of Kylo. He who never dealt with a devil before found Kylo more familiar and kinder than his own race. He even forgot his father's warning for a moment.
But of couse Kylo was bluffing. [Why would I let go of such a paw-- hmm beautiful creature and a possible dragon ally, a possible powerhouse.]
But Kylo showed nothing on his face. He continued to bait him "You must not have much resources to improve your cultivation, right?
This cave is a treasure trove and I am the owner of this treasure trove right now.
There are many ways to increase your strength and potential. And maybe.... just maybe you can also be cured in the future."
Seeing Kylo's gentle smile, Nigel felt odd yet refreshing. It was mainly because of Kylo's situation which was similar to his.... And also because of Kylo's acting level.
But he still asked "You are helping me so much, isn't there anything you need from me?"
[Atta boy, no atta snake Nigel... This is what I have been waiting for..]
Kylo was dancing with joy inside his head. But even though Kylo was feeling very joyful he did not let anything show on his face.
With the gentle smile still on his face he shook his head and continued "You will already be helping me in the future when we work together. I do not need anything else."
Receiving such a gentle approach Nigel was feeling iffy. He cannot believe there could be such kind creatures. And above all this guy was a devil!
And his instincts were screaming danger as well! Maybe because of that, his suspicion even if it was little, increased, by the benefits he was getting.
Seeing the little increase in suspicion...
[This was what I was waiting!!!]
...Kylo grinned in his heart.
Kylo then continued gently "Well you see *sigh*, I said you so much because our situation is pretty same.
And even though I said you will be helping me, but no matter what I cannot just trust all my treasures to someone I just met right?"
And unsurprisingly any suspicion the snake had was gone. Nigel nodded his head and said "Correct. So what do you have in your mind?"
Kylo asked "Have you heard of Dual soul contract?"
"Where both parties have their soul contracted with each other?" Nigel asked with a frown on his little face.
"Indeed." Kylo clapped his hands as he continued "You should know right? With {Dual Soul Contract} we can both feel each other's emotions that way and the chances of betrayal are almost nil.
...And in case you are still suspicious we can also make a {Dao Oath}." Kylo took a risk saying that but he knew...
"No need."... Nigel would immediately deny. A single {Dao Oath} is already scary as they have to tread carefully every time.
Another one would be hell. Especially for someone with ambitions like Nigel.
Even if Kylo acted well and seemed genuine his beastly instincts were screaming danger from time to time.
A {Dao Oath} needs to be well prepared. It take weeks of preparation so that no party does not carelessly fall for any traps or carelessly leave any loopholes just to be exploited by their opponent. A hasty {Dao Oath} like this is just spelling trouble for Nigel.
Kylo also sighed a relief inwardly before continuing "Well then shall we proceed?"
