Chapter 2808: Chapter 885: The Price of Rebirth as an Angel (Part 2)
"Naive, in this world there is no stable position of peace, the internal strife within races, the conflict between races, and even the battles between planes and worlds have never ceased. Just like the seemingly stable position in your world, if the Beastman Tribe were to capture your Human Territorial Domain, would their peace still be guaranteed in your eyes? In this world, only power can guarantee one’s safety; only by being stronger than others can you avoid being harmed. So the race you want your sister to be reborn into doesn’t exist; at least the Abyss World doesn’t have the kind of creature you imagine."
Though the words were harsh, the little beggar also knew that what the Hellhound said was likely true. Knowing that what the Hellhound said made sense, there was no way he could continue to ask for something the other party was unable to do. Thus, after hearing the Hellhound’s words, the little beggar immediately turned to request: "Then help my sister transform into the most powerful race of the abyss."
"The Angel Race, huh? If this little girl truly becomes an angel, then indeed, it’s unlikely she would fall accidentally. Moreover, angels have a very long lifespan, and unless killed, they generally don’t face the possibility of death. However, even as I wish to become an angel myself, you’ve seen the reality—I am but the lowest Hellhound in the Abyss. Though you are a warlock, wanting your sister to be reborn as an angel is not an easy task."
"You don’t need to worry about whether I can do it; you just need to tell me how I can make my sister be reborn as an angel!"
"Such confidence! Very well, you need only gather the souls of millions or help the abyss annex a world during a world war; otherwise, wanting your sister to be reborn as an angel is impossible. After all, angels don’t wish to give birth to someone who occupies the soul of their child, so without great merit, the Abyss Lord is unlikely to help you."
Upon hearing the Hellhound’s words, the little beggar immediately felt despair, not because the request seemed impossible to him. To the little beggar, the difficulty doesn’t matter; as long as it’s possible, he will work towards helping his sister.
Yet, no matter how unwilling the little beggar felt, he knew that with his current ability, it’s essentially impossible to fulfill the two conditions described by the Hellhound. Thus, to the little beggar at that time, making his sister reborn as an angel seemed impossible.
In fact, in that situation the little beggar had already decided to give up on the idea of turning his sister into an angel. After all, he already had hope of resurrecting his sister, and thus, at that time, turning his sister into an angel wasn’t enough to drive the little beggar to madness. Since he didn’t have great hope of making his sister an angel, the little beggar naturally thought of turning his sister into other abyssal creatures.
However, since the Hellhound spoke like that, it was certain that Zhou Tian didn’t really intend to shut off that path completely, so even though the conditions were set high, the plan to turn the little beggar’s sister into an angel was already within Zhou Tian’s plans.
"Yet, although theoretically at present turning your sister into an angel is nearly impossible, if you are truly willing to pay the price, there is still hope she can become an angel."
"What method?"
Though he had already dismissed the idea, hearing the Hellhound’s words now seemed like there might still be hope. If it’s possible to make his sister a more powerful abyssal creature, the little beggar naturally wouldn’t mind striving towards that direction.
Upon hearing the little beggar’s words, the unseen Hellhound’s lips curved slightly.
"Though at present you indeed lack the capacity to make your sister an angel, the abyss does have a method to directly achieve this goal. You only need to pay ten times the cost to let your sister become an angel ahead of time, yet if you fail to meet the conditions in the future, your sister’s soul will fade away."
After hearing the Hellhound’s words, the little beggar clearly hesitated, for he wanted his sister to live well. If to make her an angel she ends up losing her soul, that would go against his original purpose.
"This world is inherently cruel; even if you don’t choose this, if your sister isn’t strong enough, she might eventually die in some battle. Now, whether you have the courage and ability to make a choice is up to you. I’ve told you the method; whether you want to take the risk will be your decision."
Originally, the little beggar was not inclined to risk it, but under the Hellhound’s temptation, he suddenly changed his decision. Realizing that if his sister were too weak in the abyss, she’d struggle even to protect herself, so anyway it’s a risk, why not go for it? At least if she becomes an angel, he can contribute to her safety.
Then, under such circumstances, after a brief hesitation, the little beggar made his decision.
"Make my sister an angel; I will strive to meet the conditions!"
"Very well, but let me tell you in advance if you want your sister to become an angel ahead of time, the conditions for rebirth will be increased tenfold. Either prepare an offering sacrifice of a billion souls or play a decisive role in helping the abyss to annex other worlds; otherwise, even if you make your sister an angel now, she won’t end well." After saying this, the Hellhound changed its tone and continued, "Though the conditions are tough, it doesn’t mean there’s no benefit. When you agree to this contract, you may add a clause allowing your sister to be your contract partner, enabling you to summon her to this world for combat if necessary. However, if you fail to meet the contract conditions, when your sister’s soul fades, you too will die."
Hearing the Hellhound’s words, the little beggar did not let them scare him; instead, at the first moment, he decided: "I choose to sign the contract with Little Butterfly."
The subsequent events were set by Zhou Tian, yet he no longer seems concerned about the development, as Zhou Tian knows, judging from the little beggar’s performance at that time, if all goes well, he will surely contribute greatly to the abyss in its effort to annex this world in the future.
Not only for himself but also for his sister, the little beggar follows the contract to prevent his sister’s death. Though both offering sacrifice of billions and aiding the abyss in annexing this world, the little beggar’s existence will undoubtedly have a great impact on this world.
Thus, Zhou Tian’s only fear is that the little beggar would rather die than help the abyss in its invasion. Nonetheless, from the current situation, Zhou Tian’s concerns seem unfounded.
Since Zhou Tian’s biggest worry hasn’t materialized, this naturally indicates his plan has succeeded. (To be continued.
