Rey put the contract paper away again, spread his hands to Naven, and said, "Your Highness, you have also seen that this guy's temper is not very good, and she is unwilling to leave with you."
Naven seemed to know him all over again, looking at Rey seriously.
The maid couldn't help it anymore. Emily's burst of magic power almost made her think that she would be dead and dismembered in the next second. The woman actually wanted to attack the prince. How dare a slave merchant, Rey, refuse the deal?
"She doesn't want it to be of any use. If she hands over the contract, her life will be in the hands of the prince. What will happen even if she wants to take action?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Naven said, "He will not agree."
Then, he looked at Rey expressionlessly. "You are very smart and know your fate. After you refused my recruitment, there was no way to survive. I wonder if the removal of the seal on her body was also part of your calculation."
Rey blinked; it was different. He just heard Emily's request and regretted it temporarily.
But he didn't intend to say it directly.
Instead, in cooperation with Naven, he suppressed all expressions and said softly, "What do you think?"
Naven squinted his eyes and saw that Rey's expression was exactly what he thought.
In his opinion, Rey knew that he might be silenced, so he reached an agreement with Emily in advance to let her regain her magic power.
Otherwise, any fool would allow such a strong slave to regain his strength. The only function of the contract is to control Emily's life, which is also the thing that Emily values the least. Without sealing the strength, he cannot control her at all.
Naven closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then opened them again. "I will give you another chance: join my men, or die."
"I refuse." Rey answered without hesitation.
Naven no longer looked at Rey. "Take away the contract and kill him."
"Yes."
The female knight drew her sword, but Emily blocked her.
Naven had already thought of his words, and since Emily did not take action immediately, it meant that there was still room for communication.
No matter what kind of deal Rey and Emily reached, as a prince, the conditions he could offer were definitely countless times better than Rey's.
Emily believed his words and was sold here so he could continue to deceive her.
And Rey's only hope of resistance is Emily, and he can't use the contract to make her commit suicide.
What Naven doesn't know is that the premise for his success is that there is really only a relationship of interest between Rey and Emily.
He also didn't know that the reason Emily didn't take action was because she was afraid of involving Rey.
Naven looked at Emily. "I know that you hate slave traders the most.
They are the culprits who made you what you are now, and they are also the ones who sold Princess Alice to the devil world, so get out of the way, he If I agree to your conditions, I can also promise you that I will still fulfill my promise in the war against the demon world."
Upon hearing Princess Alice, Emily couldn't restrain her anger, and her magic power fluctuated violently, but after hearing the following words, she took a deep breath.
She looked at Naven with disgust. "Your Highness, you can't give me what he promised me."
Naven hates the look in her eyes now, but he wants to get her, the former talented knight of the Kingdom of Light.
"Why can't you give it? You know who I am. The power, financial resources, manpower, and strength I have are countless times that of this person. Moreover, I can take you to rescue your princess in a few years. Can he? No, he is just a little mid-level magician."
Rey saw that he hadn't had the chance to appear yet, so he ate quietly.
A little intermediate magician?
It seems that His Highness the Prince is also a small intermediate magician.
Emily said, "He indulged my willfulness and accompanied me to make an obviously unwise choice. For this alone, a sinister person like you, Your Highness, cannot do this."
After saying that, she stopped talking and raised her hand to attack the female knight first.
Even though they were of the same level, and Emily had no weapons or equipment, she still suppressed the female knight and beat her up.
The female knight also threw many magic scrolls, so she was not defeated quickly by Emily.
But this also means that Rey has no one to protect him.
A cold light flashed in Naven's eyes; he quite likes Emily, whether it is her appearance or ability; otherwise, he would not use so many methods and words to get her.
But the woman actually said that he was sinister in public. It seemed that he needed to be trained well before he was brought back.
As for Rey, he is already a dead person in his eyes.
Emily's strength seems to have dropped a lot after being unblocked; otherwise, she would have time to take care of Rey here.
Naven waved his hand, and the maid took the order to untie the magic wolf.
He didn't even bother to look at what an intermediate magician who grew up in a small town could do.
However, before he could leisurely return to the car, a hand was placed on his shoulder.
Because there was no hostility at all, he couldn't avoid it when he realized it.
Rey put his hand on Naven's shoulder, and he pointed at the scene behind him. "Your Highness, the dogs you raise are not very good. They fall down after being touched a few times."
Naven looked along his fingers and was shocked to find that his well-trained maid and the magic wolf were stacked together, apparently fainted.
Although he could do the same thing, he certainly wouldn't do it so quietly.
In an instant, Naven exploded with magic power in his body, and the magic power fluctuations in the same realm, but obviously much stronger than Rey, spread.
The pinnacle of intermediate magicians.
Rey pulled away slightly and saw Naven reaching out to him, and then a gorgeously decorated sword appeared out of thin air and was held by the latter.
Rey almost didn't react. The sudden appearance of the sword startled him. He used Aoch's mimicry to deform his neck for an instant and escaped the blow.
He kicked off the ground to get further away, and he really broke out in a cold sweat.
It wasn't taken out from the storage space; it was more like summoning out of thin air, making it difficult to detect.
In fact, Naven was more shocked than him. This was the royal sword contracted by the royal family. It was summoned from the blood and was the secret of the royal family. Unexpectedly, it was dodged by a person with lower combat power than himself.
Rey also took out his sword, but he was still careless. Because after he upgraded, his combat power rating was still S, so he became arrogant, thinking that the same level could not threaten him. It seemed that he could not underestimate anyone.
Just listen to Rey say calmly, "Limit breakthrough, one minute."
The next moment, Naven only saw countless rays of light stretching before his eyes, instantly gathering around him and wrapping him.
He couldn't even use any moves before he was suppressed by the unparalleled absolute speed.
Rey's figure galloped along the light, circling him and slashing continuously.
clang.
The Wang Sword in Naven's hand came out, and a rapidly enlarging light palm came to his eyes.
Snap!
With one slap, Naven was knocked unconscious.
Rey deactivated the enhancement and curled his lips. "It's so weak; it's just a false alarm."
He first inserted the beautiful Wang Sword into his scabbard and then began the search work as usual.
Seeing that the battle in the distance was still going on, he even lifted the carriage from the ground and put away everything he could get.
