Their commission was suspicious.

Seeing Ryu unleash his killing intent once again, the bar owner, Mia's mother, was somewhat worried.

Mia's mother was worried that Ryu would be blinded by revenge.

During those five years, Mia's mother wasn't completely unaware. She knew that Ryu would occasionally hunt down members of the Dark Familia, but the impact of hunting down the Dark Familia was quite different from discovering that the culprit who had caused the annihilation of her own Familia was still alive.

There's nothing wrong with revenge.

When will this cycle of revenge end? Of course, it will only be over after I kill them all!

If you have the ability to take revenge, why not?

Adventurers are this kind of people.

I just hope that Ryu won't be psychologically ruined by his desire for revenge.

It is truly impossible for a person's heart to endure such intense and prolonged torment.

Mia instinctively looked towards the deity who had delivered the message to Liu, hoping he could help Liu in this regard, but found that Chen Luo had already disappeared.

After a moment of surprise, Mia's mother began searching for Chen Luo's presence. She then saw Chen Luo sneak up behind Liu and place his hand on Liu's head.

"Liuli, Liuli, be good. That scumbag is about to be killed, don't be so angry." Chen Luo said, patting Liuli's head to ease her anger.

The "head pat" is remarkably effective in treating psychological problems.

Liu had previously suffered a mental breakdown after witnessing his companions die one by one in front of him while trying to buy time for him by chanting magic. In the end, when the magic was finished, countless magic orbs struck the dying companions and monsters, resulting in the complete annihilation of his companions but the escape of the monsters.

Seeking revenge while in a state of mental collapse only deepened Ryu's psychological issues, bringing out all the hidden desire for revenge within her.

Fortunately, a gentle head pat is the cure for all psychological problems.

Yes, Chen Luo did it on purpose.

The effect was obvious; in just a few seconds, Ryu's eyes calmed down. Although the fire of revenge in her heart was still burning, her will had been strengthened again.

“My name is Ryu Rion, not Ryu Rion,” Ryu sighed and said.

"Understood, Liuli. Shall we depart now?" Chen Luo asked after removing his hand.

"Miya's mom, I need to ask for a day off," Liu said to the landlady.

"Go, but remember to come back safely."

"Okay, I understand. And thank you." The last part was addressed to Chen Luo.

"Don't be shy, as long as you don't mind me touching you."

Only allowing those they acknowledge to touch their skin is a unique principle that elves adhere to.

"!!!" Hearing Chen Luo's reminder, Liu realized that not only had Chen Luo touched her skin, but he had also hugged her leg and patted her head...

"Let's go, let's go. There's still a lot of work to do, I can't rest yet." Before Liu could react, Chen Luo had already walked out of the tavern.

"Wait a minute, I'll go upstairs to change my gear, I'll be right there."

Chapter 1604 The one who tied the knot must untie it: Ryu vs. Zagnat!

I stopped drinking and eating, drew my sword and looked around, my heart filled with confusion.

The first sentence doesn't fit the atmosphere of a battlefield, but the second sentence definitely fits Ryu's current thoughts.

Ryu had forgotten what had just happened. All she could remember was Chen Luo's figure as he slaughtered everyone. It was unbelievable that the boy who had been clinging to her leg like a child, asking her to make a wish, was not only a god, but also able to burn almost all the Dark Familias (Dark Faction Familias) in the artificial maze before her without using any divine power.

In Ryu's eyes, the place had become an absolute sea of ​​fire, with screams rising and falling incessantly.

Looking at the flames burning with countless Dark Familiars, Ryu couldn't help but reach out her hand. Only when the flames wrapped around her did Ryu realize how terrifying this thing was.

A single flame instantly devoured countless Dark Familiars; with such terrifying power, why would I dare to touch it?

Ryu tried to shake off the flames clinging to her hands, but she couldn't get rid of them no matter what she did. Moreover, when Ryu came to her senses, she realized that even though the flames were wrapped around her, they didn't cause her any harm.

It remained as warm and gentle as ever, and Ryu even had the illusion that it was comforting her. It radiated a power that could soothe the soul.

incredible.

"What? Is it strange? Don't be afraid of these flames, they actually like you quite a bit." Chen Luo said, looking at the stunned Liu.

"This is... the Soulfire, isn't it? The flame that Lady Astrea once described, a flame that purifies everything with an absolute concept of punishing evil and promoting good. In its eyes... am I not a sinner?" Ryu stared blankly at the flame in her hand that was slowly burning without causing her any harm.

"The Soulfire is an absolutely impartial entity. Anyone who commits heinous sins, even I, will be burned to the point of unbearable agony. This is why I constantly maintain my integrity. However, for those with a sense of public duty, whether or not they receive this reminder is irrelevant. Good people will not cause harm, and even if bad people are killed, their sin value will not increase. Punishing evil and promoting good is the very principle that the Soulfire upholds." Chen Luo rambled on, while simultaneously stuffing the main gods of the Dark Families into the puppet world.

This time, Chen Luo practically wiped out the entire Dark Faction.

They completely destroyed the main base.

"Am I... righteous?" Having thought she had been abandoned by justice, and that she, as an avenger, should not be recognized by justice again, Ryu's eyes welled up with tears when affirmed by the Soulfire.

"...This child's emotions are quite volatile." Chen Luo couldn't empathize with Liu's current behavior.

Honestly, I'm a little unsure now whether getting Ryu the Soulfire's approval or allowing her to personally take revenge on Jaluo would increase her favorability more.

It's hard to understand the feelings of people like them, who firmly believe in justice yet feel unworthy of it, when they are finally recognized for their actions.

It's probably a feeling of relief.

"Hey, Liuli, stop spacing out! We've found the person you're looking for!" Chen Luo turned and shouted at Liuli.

Upon hearing Chen Luo's reminder, Liu no longer cared about how Chen Luo addressed her and quickly ran over.

When Liu saw the cat-eared figure cornered by Chen Luo, a huge desire for revenge instantly filled her heart.

"Don't let your desire for revenge control your emotions. Now, as a righteous person, you should say a few words and listen to his last words." Chen Luo patted Liu's head to calm her down.

"Why listen to his nonsense? What if something goes wrong?" Ryu, who was about to get his revenge, couldn't stand it anymore.

"If anything goes wrong, I'll rip Apollo's head off and let you kick it like a ball!"

Unless it's the world consciousness intending to rescue this villain from Chen Luo, Chen Luo has no chance of failing!

"Alright..." Despite saying that, Ryu still gripped the small katana tightly in her hand, ready to stab Jaluo to death at any moment.

"You are the God of Wishes, aren't you? I just heard the screams of those main gods." Trapped in a corner, trembling with fear, Jaluo searched for a chance to live amidst the deathly silence.

“That’s right.” Chen Luo nodded.

"So you can grant any wish, right? You won't refuse someone who wants to make a wish to you, right? Then please, I want to live!" Jaluo knelt down and respectfully pleaded with Chen Luo.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Alive]: 500 Originium

Chen Luo's private advertisement had spread throughout Orario and the entire dungeon, so it was normal for Jallu to hear it.

"Do you think it's possible? Besides, this isn't your most pressing wish. Speak your wish, express your deepest desire." Chen Luo patiently guided the monk.

This wasn't the commission Chen Luo wanted to take. Chen Luo was going to leave the decision of how to handle this person to Liu.

However, living and living happily are two different things; sometimes, dying cleanly and decisively is a kind of luck.

Alright, I'll accept this commission for now.

"The deepest desire in my heart... can really be fulfilled?" After hesitating for a moment, a look of wild joy appeared in Jaluo's eyes.

"Lord River God, don't grant his wish..." Liu cried out urgently, then couldn't help but throw the blade in her hand at Jaluo, wanting to end him instantly.

But Chen Luo simply snapped his fingers, and the small katana was enveloped in countless threads, stopping just one centimeter from Juluo's eyes.

"Don't worry, I will grant your wish. Everything is under my control. I will make your wish come true in grand style," Chen Luo said, turning to Liu.

There was an inexplicable sense of trust in Chen Luo's voice, and looking into Chen Luo's eyes, Liu chose to believe him.

"You can only make one wish. Come on, tell me what you truly wish for," Chen Luo said to Jaluo.

"Since that's the case, then I wish: I want to tame Zagnat. That being who appears like a monster to others, but to me, is truly perfect! The moment I saw him, I was captivated. Destroy everything! Slaughter everyone! And most importantly, that body, more beautiful than any goddess! That overwhelming presence, I want it so badly, I want to possess it all!"

As Jallu became more and more agitated, he eventually became delirious and appeared extremely lethargic!

“That’s right, I want to tame Zagnat!”

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Taming the Zagnat]: Grants Jalal the ability to command the Zagnat.

Reward: 999 Primogems + 50 Affinity with Jarrow

Difficulty: 3 stars

"emmm..."

What do I need so much goodwill from you for?

Never mind.

“I sense your wish. Since your love for Zagnat is so deep, come with me.” Hearing Chen Luo’s words, not only Liu, but even Jaluo, who made the wish, was quite surprised.

In fact, even the wrathful Jāra who made the wish didn't believe it could be granted.

Although Ryu wanted to say something more, looking at the soul fires scattered all over the ground and the Dark Familia members wailing incessantly amidst the soul fires, Ryu decided to continue to believe in Chen Luo.

This is not only about believing in Chen Luo, but also about believing in Astrea, the former chief goddess of Liu.

Ryu believed Astraea's assessment of Chen Luo.

After watching Chen Luo step into the light curtain and disappear, Liu glanced at Jaluo behind her, suppressed the urge to kill him, and went in as well. Liu was afraid that if she left even a second later, she would not be able to resist killing him.

Seeing that Chen Luo and Liu had both left, Jaluo also considered escaping directly, but his desire for Zagnat outweighed his will to survive. With gritted teeth, Jaluo also stepped into the light curtain.

Zagnat... my Zagnat...

"Ugh, this is so annoying. Why is that guy behind me obsessed with Zagnat? Can't we stop him from going crazy here?"

"You said he's gone crazy here, how could I possibly stop him?"

Isn't it normal for an epileptic to have seizures?

Besides, if he didn't go crazy, where would Chen Luo get the commission?

However, this kid is a man of strong will. Even without Chen Luo's help, he was willing to lie low for five years and investigate the matter of Zagnat alone without telling any of the other Dark Familias. In the end, he actually succeeded in taming Zagnat with a special magical artifact.

However, his insistence was clearly not on the right track.

"This is..." After passing through the light curtain, the group arrived in the underground city.

“The 27th floor. Didn’t you want Zagnat? Zagnat can only be summoned in the middle and lower floors, but it cannot be summoned in the upper floors due to the suppression of Uranus’s divine power,” Chen Luo said.

"Are you really going to help him summon Zagnat?" Liu asked as she approached Chen Luo.

“That’s right. And this can also be considered as settling your mind.” Chen Luo nodded.

"Hmm?" Liu tilted her head.

"Now it's time to create a massive explosion. If the damage to the dungeon doesn't exceed the automatic maintenance limit, we won't be able to summon Zagnat." After discovering that Chen Luo, the God of Wishes, was really planning to help him summon Zagnat, Jallu said somewhat maniacally.

"No need for all that trouble." Chen Luo glanced at Jaluo, then snapped his fingers.

"Snapped!"

"Crack!" A rock suddenly fell from above and landed at the feet of the three.

The three looked up and saw a huge creature emerge from the ceiling of the 27th floor of the underground city, then crash to the ground.

"Zagnat!"

It was a monster resembling a dinosaur skeleton, and what was even more surprising was that the monster obediently remained beside Chen Luo without attacking Liu and Jaluo.

“Now, it’s yours,” Chen Luo said to Jaluo, pointing at Zagnat.

"Really?"

"Really." Chen Luo nodded.

Jallus carefully touched Zagnat, and Zagnat responded to him.

"Hahahaha!" Jaluo couldn't help but burst into wild laughter.

[Ding! Mission complete]

"Now, Liuli, go and kill them both." Seeing the overjoyed Juluo after his wish was fulfilled, Chen Luo turned to Liuli and said.

"Go and make up for your regrets. Don't worry about not being able to beat them, I will help you."

Fulfilling Ryu's wish isn't difficult; it could have been done just now. However, untying Ryu's knot in her heart will be more troublesome.

The trouble should end it.
