Thus, she entered a cycle of returning home to sleep exhausted every day and throwing herself back into climbing the tower the next day. It wasn't until after the 350th floor that the difficulty suddenly increased. From this point on, Jean's level began to improve rapidly, while the T-Points in her possession also plummeted crazily.
" I have 2000 points left without realizing it? Have I died 1000 times? " Sitting in her room, she suddenly wanted to check her balance, and the result made Jean unable to believe it herself. It had been less than three weeks, and she had died 1000 times. Calculating based on an average of 12 hours a day, that was an average of one death every 15 minutes.
However, for the sake of that feeling between life and death, Jean fought recklessly during this time. Anything she could defend against with Stardust Wind, she absolutely wouldn't dodge; if she couldn't defend against it, she had to try anyway. But this method was indeed effective; she made significant progress in Gale Sword Technique, Stardust Wind, and even the experience of how to fight recklessly without getting herself killed.
Although the results of her strength improvement were gratifying, she couldn't just sit there and eat through her savings; she needed income to truly be at ease.
So she called 'D' again: " Boss, do you have any gigs to make ends meet? "
" What's wrong? Short on money? Want to learn about a 9-out-13-return loan? "
" No, thanks. Is there anything I can do to earn points? "
" Very well. I'll send the evil god contract over to you. I suppose I've finally waited for this day. "
Then 'D' hung up the phone, and a large stack of papers suddenly descended from the sky.
After collecting the papers in mid-air using wind, Jean began to read them.
First was the method of generating the evil god contract. Generally, extremely intense emotions would transcend the world barrier and be collected by the evil god, who would respond with an evil god contract. At the same time, because the evil god contract itself recorded the time node of this longing, using it would teleport one to the time and place where the contract was generated.
The contract itself followed the principle of equivalent exchange, but the benchmark for this 'price' was entirely up to their side to interpret. 'D' even specifically noted that the act of 'being able to choose' itself had immense value. One had to know how many kinds of helplessness in the world made people willing to pay any price to change things.
Finally, regarding the distribution of earnings, 30% of what was marked in the evil god contract belonged to 'D', and the remaining 70% plus all additional gains belonged to Jean. Indivisible parts could be exchanged for T-Points of equal value; of course, both the earned portions and additional gains could be exchanged for T-Points.
Then Jean picked up the first evil god contract and began to read.
[ evil god contract 1 ] Target: Bring back the defecting Sasuke. Description: Sasuke actually chose to defect to Orochimaru, why! Why on earth! I must bring Sasuke back. Reward: Shadow Clone Technique, Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Massive Chakra. Client: Naruko Uzumaki
" Good grief, seriously, good grief. Does this mean Boruto won't have anything to do? But let's skip this one. After all, if I drag Sasuke back at this time, there's a high probability Sasuke will be done for. "
[ evil god contract 2 ] Target: Rescue Rukia. Description: Although Rukia has committed an unforgivable crime, even so, I still want to save her. Reward: Kido · Hado 1-31. Client: Renji Abarai
" We've already had Naruto and Bleach; the next one probably won't be One Piece, right? Is this coming in a sequence? " As a result, she shifted the edge of the paper slightly and saw an 'Ai'. " Confirmed, this time it's saving Ace! "
[ evil god contract 3 ] Target: Defeat Amon, reclaim Aiur. Description: Aiur will be reclaimed. Commander, reassemble our forces and defeat Amon. Reward: Carrier X1. Client: Hierarch Artanis
" Holy cow, reclaiming Aiur? Seriously, the Hierarch is too stingy; he only gives one Carrier for reclaiming Aiur. "
Just as Jean was flipping through them, she discovered a stack of contract slips stapled together.
[ evil god contract 15 ] Target: Protect the members of the Snow Monster Squad to break out, and try to cover the withdrawal of the Infected as much as possible. Description: If possible, save them, save my brothers and sisters... Reward: Everything. Client: 'Frost Star' Yelena
" White Rabbit... " ( 'Red' seeped out from the paper. )
[ evil god contract 15-2 ] Target: Protect 'Frost Star' as she leaves, and meet with Patriot. Description: No matter what, please let Big Sis and Big Daddy see each other one last time, please. Reward: Everything. Client: Snow Monster Squad A ( The rich red color seemed as if it were about to drip down. )
... [ evil god contract 15-7 ] Target: Protect 'Frost Star' as she leaves, and meet with Patriot. Description: If there really is a god, please let Big Sis find final peace. For this, I will give everything I have. Reward: Everything. Client: Snow Monster Squad G ( The red was now as thick as ink, dripping onto the tabletop one drop at a time. )
In the vision of Synesthesia, the intense emotions manifested as colors seeping out of the paper, continuously stacking before Jean's eyes. At this moment, it was comparable to black lacquer.
Putting these evil god contracts away, she picked up white wind, took a deep breath, and said, " Let's go. "
