[VRMMO] Dead One Chapter 757 - 758 – The deal which can be accepted?

"…"

"Before I even accept anything, I want to know who are we talking here about." – said ClownFrog.

"I really don't want to walk into so sort of trap."

"Oh? You don't trust ?" – asked True Love.

"Isn't it obvious?" – replied ClownFrog.

"True Sins."

"True Virtues."

"They are far too unknown."

"You want entertainnt, you want have your own 'characters' play for you."

"Not only that, I know that your kind has special restriction on yourself, which sowhat hinder what you can say."

"However, what is to say that those restriction are really there?"

"What if all of you are faking it?"

"I'm not falling for charms."

"I'm not for tricks."

"I'm here to do the business, which would benefit both of us."

"I'm not aiming to scam, since it would only get on your kind bad side, but that doesn't an I'm planning on getting scamd myself."

"So I'm going to ask, the na of the nation you have in mind."

"And I'm going to check them."

"Or is it sothing I shouldn't do?"

"…"

"No." – replied True Love.

"You are allowed to do what you wish."

"Okay… And one more thing?" – asked ClownFrog.

"There is more?" – asked slightly annoyed True Love.

"No. It isn't a demand or anything, just a question." – replied ClownFrog.

"You do realize people FEAR US, right?"

"I an, I know being allies with an extrely powerful nation like us is a good thing and stuff…. Because how much chaos was happening and what we did in short spawn of ti, including also the fact that many of our citizens are monsters."

"Fear and what not is the things the other nations sees us like."

"So, this is a real and I an REAL question."

"Do you really want us, to be involved with a nation of your choosing?"

"We could only cause more trouble to co their way than benefits."

"Heck, if they are too far away, they may end up only be able receive a small portion of our support, no matter how willing we are to send them only minimal or full support."

"So I'm asking again, please be careful."

"Since there is good chance you could fuck them with this decision."

"…"

"Huh…. You are more… Considering than I've thought?" – replied True Love.

"Again. I want to have fair deal and I don't aim to scam you." - replied ClownFrog.

"A fair deal."

"That is, it."

"So… What is your answer?"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"Hm… Fine." – replied True Love as she was silence for several minutes, thinking about her answer.

"Don't do it."

"?"

"You given up like this?" – asked surprised ClownFrog.

"Hey. I like those guys and I wanted you all to give them at least so support." – replied True Love.

"However, if you are saying that being allies with them could possible cause them to gain more enemies, then I have no choice but to decline."

"…"

(Huh… Wasn't… Expecting this answer?) – thought ClownFrog.

(I an, I thought she would maybe try adding so stuff to her "scale" in order to have us take more drastic asures.)

(Heck. If she wanted, she could even offer the status of a herald, a strong bait which would make anybody greedy over it.)

(Herald isn't just religious status.)

(It is also a pure power.)

(For example , my main sin is sloth, and I'm herald of true sloth.)

(This status gave a huge boost in power for all of my sloth type sins.)

(We don't have a dedicated "Love" fallower, which is loyal to our group… But again, with the status of herald of true love, anybody could possibly beco the dedicated fallower.)

(And yet… She is not throwing it at ?)

(I guess she either knows that we may have trouble being allies with….)

"…"

"Say, I have a solid question." – asked ClownFrog.

"Which nation are you even talking about?"

"Demu." – replied True Love.

"?"

"Demu? I've…. Sorry, I've never heard about them." – said ClownFrog.

"It is fine… It is not well-known nation from what I've gathered." – replied True Love.

"…"

"Em… So, about the deal…. I an, what do we do?" – asked ClownFrog.

"Do you just give the 'Seed Of Love' and I return grants you permission to view my empire? Or do you want to modify the deal?"

"…Let think about it." – said True Love as she began floating on the water surface for quiet long amount of ti, while sotis moving around or making random noises.

"Hmmmmmmmmmm..."

"…"

(Honestly... I don't want to do it.) – thought True Love.

(Having him be connected with in any sort of way could end up making things… Annoying…)

(But then again, what if I provoke him?)

(He does looks quiet "chill"…. But again, from what I've heard while spying on the world below, I heard that he is called mad man by many as well as the "demon emperor" and what not….)

(But again, what if he decides to return the favor?)

(Now that I think about… Maybe I shouldn't had said that place's na… I think I screwed up a little…)

(…Anyway… What should I do?) – thought extrely nervous True Love.

"…"

"…"

"AAAAAAA!"

"Fine!" – said True Love.

"Let's go with this deal without alliance part in it." – said True Love as she gotten out of her massive bath pool.

"Thank you." – replied ClownFrog.

"By the way, I have question."

"If I were to accept it, would the 'noise', the disruption which block off your kind view, would it get stronger?"

"Hm? Why are you asking that?" – asked True Love.

"Sloth once told about this." – replied ClownFrog.

"So, I'm curious."

"Would other beings like you have harder ti seeing my empire?"

"Well, yes." – replied True Love.

"The disruption would get stronger."

"I an, didn't Sloth told you that you were directly connected to that disruption?"

"Considering what you just said, Sloth must had told you that sins and virtues can hinder our gazes, so you can probably get the picture."

"Okay… I get this part." – said ClownFrog.

"But I'm curious about sothing."

"How does it work with my people?"

"I an, if they also have sins and virtues, would that disturbance gets bigger?"

"?"

"…Wait…. Sloth didn't told you?" – asked True Love.

"Nope. She never tells important stuff until the last mont… Not only that, I'm also having so weird ti with her… A questions regarding her are popping up in my head."

"So, I'm trying to confirm if it isn't yet another one of her annoying ass fucking pranks and what not."

(Well… It is not truth, but also not lie.) – thought ClownFrog.

"Hm… Well…. No." – replied True Love.

"As long as they are not directly linked with disturbance, their presence would do nothing."

"I see."

"…"

"Honestly, she made it sound so annoying, that I've thought she was fucking with …. But I guess she used a freaking reverse psychology there."

"Anyway, this is all."

"I can now forge the deal." – said ClownFrog as he extended his hand.

"Very well." – said True Love as she grabbed ClownFrog's hand.

"I. True Love. Am offering a deal."

"For the permission to gain vision upon the empire, I will grant ClownFrog the Seed Of Love."

"Do you accept?"

"I accept." – said ClownFrog as in the next mont a flow of pinkish color flew into ClownFrog arm.

"Well then, ClownFrog." – said True Love.

"Please be a nice source of entertainnt for ." – said True Love as the lich dragon's body started disappearing.

"Don't worry. You will have your fun." – said ClownFrog.

"But problem not now, since I still have shit tons of paper work. So sorry in advance!" – said ClownFrog as he then disappeared from the domain of True Love, before then returning back to his castle.

[You have returned to the original world.]

[You have obtained a touch of the True Love.]

[You have obtained title: [Touch Of True Virtue Of Love] – [Rare]

[The authority of Love sprouts within you.]

[You have obtained [Seed Of Love].]

"…"

(Welp… That is done…. And this ti I managed to succeed in the deal…. And gather a lot of nice information.) – thought ClownFrog.

(First thing first, I confird that the disruption really is involved with the key figures.)

(That ans …. And our guild who are linked to the whole "blessing".)

(Sloth, I've talked about this before, when we were talking about the disturbance.)

(But again, I don't know if I could trust her or not.)

(So I needed to confirm it with Wrath and Love.)

(…. Not only that, I confird sothing else.)

(The "sll".)

(I didn't made a deal with Justice, yet she could tell that I had eting with them?)

(This is annoying…. If that is the case, then what do I do regarding Prudence?)

(Should I accept their invitation?)

(But again, they would tell that I had eting with other beings like them today…)

(…)

(It could end up…. Annoying to say the least.)

(…)

(No. I'm not risking it.)

(It maybe my only chance to hold the eting with them, and using any random variables against is too risky.)

(The smartest play here is to wait…. Maybe few months at least.)

(Not only that…. Sloth should had reaction by now…. Yet again, nothing.)

(Is it because I only received the "seed" and not real "virtue" yet? Is it because the "noise" isn't loud enough yet?)

"…"

(Probably.)

(But again… I've obtained at least 2 new deals….)

(But again, again. I don't know if I can trust either Wrath or Love.)

(I will need to watch them.)

(Not only that bastard Justice… The hell was that?!)

(Did he really only wanted to show a middle finger?)

(Or is he planning sothing?)

(Is one of the 3 beings I t today are enemies? Or neutrals?)

(Are their goal the sa as Sloth's? Or maybe they are with "benefactor"?)

(I don't know…. But I will force them to reveal it.)

(Right now, they are playing on MY board.)

(And I will make you move your pieces in order to have to expose yourself.)

(I ain't planning on letting being the only fool here on this god damned board.)
