Chapter 66 - 66 Lovers' Contract
66 Lovers’ Contract
Su Wan was now thinking hard, trying to make sense of the information this white-haired woman had given her. Su Wan was a smart girl. She did not believe everything the other person said. It was better to be safe now than sorry later.
What if the white-haired woman in front of her was a trap rather than the Lord of the past? Even if the white-haired woman was the remnant of the Lord of the past, she might have ill-intentions now.
All these variables had to be considered! The white-haired woman spoke again after countless pieces of information emerged in Su Wan’s mind.
“God’s Core…,” said the white-haired woman. “We will leave our unfulfilled wish with you.”
Su Wan was right. The white-haired woman indeed wanted to reveal the information about God’s Core to her.
“As someone who has been through this, I don’t want you to follow our path. I only hope you can live happily with our last wish.”
The location the white-haired woman gave her was the same as her guess. God’s Core was in the Forgotten Island!
It was in the Overlord Plane on a very mysterious island. The place was usually inaccessible. It only opened at a certain time.
The island was also the place where the Top Ten schools from the Inter-Campus Tournament would be competing.
Su Wan felt that the white-haired woman wasn’t lying to her, after all. She had heard that the final contest of the Inter-Campus Tournament was related to the Mythical Overlord.
The secret to becoming a Mythical Overlord was hidden in that place. The white-haired woman had answered one important question. The secret of becoming a Mythical Overlord was the God’s Core!
After the white-haired woman relayed this information, her figure blurred as though she were an NPC who had completed her mission and was about to disappear.
At the last moment, the woman spoke again. “You don’t have a contract with your hero yet, right? Why is that?”
‘A contract?’ Su Wan recalled that no matter how she had tried to coax him, he had refused to form a contract with her.
Su Wan was embarrassed to accept the truth. Su Wan understood that, at the least, the white-haired woman didn’t seem to be able to see through her memories. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have asked. She would already know the answer.
After thinking about it for a while, Su Wan said, “I respect my hero very much. I don’t know of any other contract that is suitable. I don’t want to sign the existing ones with him.”
An equal contract was the best contract. Su Wan had offered the equal contract to show that she did not intend to deceive him.
The white-haired woman smiled. “Your feelings for your hero are admirable,” she said. “You are always thinking of your hero’s benefit. You are different from me. You trust and care for your hero a lot. If there’s a chance, I really want to be you.”
The last line made Su Wan feel uneasy. She didn’t want to argue.
“Let me see…,” said the white-haired woman. “Is this the contract you want to sign with your hero?”
The white-haired woman pointed her finger and a message poured into Su Wan’s mind. She had used a special method to send her a message. The information that appeared in Su Wan’s mind about a special type of contract.
This contract was different from the three types of contract Su Wan had learned about in school.
“Lovers’ contract…,” muttered Su Wan. “The Lord and the hero swear an oath as lovers.” Su Wan’s face turned red. “There is such a contract in this world?”
Su Wan only had a small doubt. On the Blue Planet, it was common for Lords and heroes to be lovers. They even got married and started a family.
Most of the contracts used by the Lords and heroes were different from the three conventional contracts that the public knew.
Therefore, when facing this lovers’ contract, Su Wan didn’t have much doubt that it was something new.
The white-haired woman appeared to have finished explaining at this point. She was all smiles and blinked at Su Wan as if she were a child. “I wish you all a happy life in the future.”
The white-haired woman’s shadow dissipated.
Su Wan uneasily tugged at the corner of her clothes. In her mind, the words of the white-haired woman kept echoing.
If there was no such thing as a lovers’ contract, Su Wan would have been so conflicted at the white-haired woman’s words.
Suddenly, a terrifying roar reverberated from the horizon, and two enormous dragons appeared in the sky.
“The Dark Dragon King?!” Us Wan was scared back to her senses. She looked at the sky with wide eyes.
She was sure one was the Dark Dragon King, but who was the other one fighting the Dark Dragon King?
She saw the twelve balls of dark energy floating behind one of the dragons.
“Lazy Xu?!” Su Wan looked at the giant dragon in the sky. He was fighting the Dark Dragon King. Her heart was racing. “This bastard was hiding his strength?”
Su Wan considered this and began to examine everything she had encountered since meeting Xu Yuan. Could it be that he had always hid his strength to trick her?
Su Wan rushed toward the battlefield and met Shi Linglong and the Flower Fairy. Su Wan understood as the Flower Fairy explained the situation.
“This is a dream world?” muttered Su Wan. “So, anything is possible here? As long as you believe you have great power, it can come true.”
Su Wan pondered over the information the Flower Fairy told her. Xu Yuan usually liked to trick people, but he did not hold back at the critical moment.
‘Let me think…,” pondered Su Wan. ‘This place is like a dream world. If the fantasy is strong enough, it can materialize into reality. Is that why Xu Yuan became so powerful?’
Su Wan seemed to have understood everything. She still felt that Xu Yuan was just a small support system and wasn’t suitable for combat. But in this dream world, Xu Yuan imagined himself to be powerful and became a giant dragon.
“I’ll try too,” muttered Su Wan.
Shi Linglong and the Flower Fairy, who were standing at the side, shook their heads. ‘Try?’
It wasn’t like they hadn’t tried before, but knowing it was one thing, and being able to do it was another.
It was like a person in a dream within a dream had already realized that he was dreaming and was trying hard to wake himself up.
But when she woke up, she was still in her dream, and she was in despair.
