Bab 202: An offer that you can't refuse

"I have an offer for you, Felix."

Felix knew she was going to try to bait him in with something, and he was ready to hear her:

"Don't you feel vulnerable now?"

Felix frowned as he heard those words. Was this woman dumb? Why would he feel vulnerable?

A chuckle could be heard echoing in Felix's mind that said:

"I think you realized that all your extra lives are gone, yes?"

Felix knew about that. He wasn't dumb, and he knew that if he died now, he would die forever, but somehow he didn't feel vulnerable nor weak.

He actually felt as if a heavy rock was lifted from his shoulders... he felt free in his senses.

While he lost something, he also gained something.

Seeing that Felix wasn't responding to her question emboldened the woman as she tried her magic:

"I can create a contract with you, just like you have done with Aaltarox. I can give you as many lives as he did!"

"All you have to do is help me just a little bit."
