บท 131: Prepared

"You dare to bargain for the soul of a god? Have you no fear?"

Mark remained calm in the face of Charon's anger. Mark would have had a bit more respect for Charon if Charon hadn't tried to throw him into the river earlier, but after something like that, there was no way Mark was going to show him any fear or respect.

Mark waited for Charon to calm down again, and Charon finally huffed and turned away from Mark with an annoyed look on his face. Charon was thinking about the deal that Mark brought forward and what sort of changes he should make to it. Mark was right that the deal was too one-sided.

Even though the gods could do whatever they wanted, they could not force mortals into deals without the mortals accepting it on their own. Even though the god tempts you and lures you towards the deal, so long as you willingly fall for the temptation and allure, then the deal is sealed.
