An invincible journey starting from a different race

"This... is it really effective?" The Duke was shocked.

Then Aesop was heard saying, "Look at me! Gunara, the Dark God! Transform for me!"

Then, with a roaring tone, he thrust the stick completely into the body of the Duke's son.

Everyone subconsciously closed their legs, with unspeakable horror on their faces.

However, after the popsicle was inserted, the Duke's son's demeanor did become more and more normal. After a few minutes of confusion, the Duke's son murmured: "Why am I here... What happened?"

recovered!

The Duke cried with joy and immediately rushed over to hug his silly son tightly.

But because the movement was too large, he accidentally pushed the stick, which was not completely inserted, deeper.

This time, the Duke's son screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

After some explanation, the Duke's son finally understood who saved him and immediately thanked Aesop.

Aesop shook his head and said, "It was my Lord who saved you, not me. I was just carrying out her will. If you don't repent later, my Lord will still punish you."

The Duke and the Duke's son looked at each other, and then asked cautiously, "We don't understand...how did we offend the God Guna...?"

Aesop looked at the two and said, "Don't you understand? From my Lord's name, you can tell that he is a very benevolent god."

I didn't feel anything at all...

The two of them were muttering in their hearts, but they dared not speak out.

"Your contractual persecution of the puppets has made my Lord very angry," Aesop said, "so he has brought down divine punishment."

"...Is it because of this?" The Duke was shocked.

"Of course," Aesop said, "Therefore, my Lord requires you to destroy all illegal puppet contracts and promise not to do such things again in the future before I will forgive you."

This put the Duke in a difficult position.

After all, those puppets were his property. If he just gave them up like that...

Aesop noticed the Duke's hesitation and said slowly, "Of course, my Lord clearly distinguishes between rewards and punishments. If you are willing to repent, my Lord will also bestow grace upon you. For example, I will help your son regain his life."

Renewal?

The Duke was a little puzzled. Wasn’t his son already... huh?

His eyes widened gradually, and then he suddenly looked at his son's lower body, and even his breathing became heavy: "You mean..."

"Of course." Aesop said calmly, "The new life refers to the lower body, the second half of life."

The Duke's son immediately opened his mouth wide.

He had consulted countless doctors for this injury, all of whom said it was incurable. He was about to give up, but now Aesop told him that he could still have a new life?!

"Please, please save me!" The Duke's son immediately knelt down to Aesop.

Aesop shook his head and said, "It's no use begging me!"

The Duke's son finally reacted and immediately turned around to hug the Duke's legs, wailing, "Father! I'm your only son! And you don't even have a grandson! I also know you're already dead. If my lower body is gone, you'll have no descendants!"

The Duke's face flushed and paled at his son's words, and he cursed, "You prodigal son, can you please stop saying things you shouldn't say?"

After hearing his son's words, everyone looked at the Duke's lower body, and Aesop was no exception. However, he just took a look and said lightly: "If you want, I can also help you rejuvenate."

The Duke's eyes widened even more, and even his voice became trembling: "Really?"

"My Lord never makes a promise he cannot keep."

After struggling for a while, the Duke gritted his teeth and nodded: "If that's the case, I'm willing..."

"Then let's sign the contract." Aesop took out the magic contract, "This is the contract between us. If you sign it, I will help you rejuvenate!"

The Duke took the magic contract and signed his name with trembling hands.

After Aesop put it away, he nodded and said, "Okay, you guys take a look."

The Duke and his son were slightly stunned, and they really felt that there was a change in a certain part of their body. So they didn't care about the people around them and started to check it out immediately.

Then I found that it was just as Aesop said. The branches that were originally broken and old had now turned into small sprouts, just like bamboo shoots after the rain, full of vitality, and all things were growing!

It’s… Spring!

Both of them were about to cry.

Only they understand the pain of losing and regaining.

Grow up quickly, grow up quickly!

The two of them still looked on expectantly.

However, if it does not move for a long time, it will still be just a small bud.

The two raised their heads and looked at Aesop in confusion: "Why... isn't this moving?"

"Isn't this enough?"

The father and son widened their eyes: "Didn't you say freshmen?!"

"Yes." Aesop nodded, "Just tell me if it's new or not."

131 Destruction Contract

At that moment of rebirth, the Duke and his son's expressions were not as happy as one might imagine.

You can even remove the word "special", and despair is written all over his face.

"This, Lord God's Messenger..." Aesop had indeed demonstrated his miraculous abilities, so the Duke had begun to believe that the Dark God Gunara really existed in this world. He even addressed him with a lot more respect. Of course, this was mainly because the other party had a "little" handle on him and his son. "This is too small... I mean, too new, right?"

"Yes, that's why it feels like a new life." Aesop said, "I didn't lie to you."

"You are certainly not deceiving me," said the Duke, "but it is too new to be of any use."

"Why can't it be used?" Aesop asked, "Isn't that how you used it when you were a kid? If it worked when you were a kid, why can't it be used now? That doesn't make sense."

"But when I was little, it was different from now." The Duke still tried hard. "What a sapling can do is different from what a towering tree can do!"

Aesop patted the Duke's shoulder and said, "Then you just need to wait patiently for it to grow. Don't worry, it will grow up as long as you are patient."

The Duke heaved a sigh of relief when Aesop said that the baby would grow out of it. But when he heard the word "patience", his sigh of relief immediately returned.

"This patience... does it have a limit?" The Duke held on to a last glimmer of hope. "Is it a few days?"

Aesop shook his head.

"How many years then?"

Aesop still shook his head.

The Duke's expression suddenly became even uglier: "That's going to take... more than ten years?"

"To grow into a towering tree," said Aesop, "what are a dozen years worth?"

This answer undoubtedly acquiesced to the deadline, causing the Duke to subconsciously take a few steps back, his expression frighteningly pale: "Wait another ten years before it can be used?! How is that possible!"

The Duke could already imagine the scene more than ten years later.

By then, the sapling had finally grown into a towering tree, but the tree itself was already so old that it could barely afford to eat or drink. In other words, even the soil was rotten and dying. How could it possibly support that towering tree?

His son could wait a while until he reached his age and could use it, but he really couldn't wait any longer.

So, the Duke gritted his teeth and asked Aesop, "Can you please give me back my money?"

Rather than waiting for more than ten years for it to grow into a towering tree, the Duke would rather his old tree could keep its roots twisted for a longer time.

"Exchange it back?" Aesop said with a sullen look, "How can God's gift be taken back just like that?"

"This..." Looking at his sapling that seemed to be broken by a gust of wind, the Duke hardened his heart and said, "I am willing to completely submit to the great God Gunara! If the Lord God can fulfill my wish... oh no, pray, I can release a magical contract to destroy all the puppets in Loen City. Even if they are not mine, as long as they are in Loen City, I can destroy them!"

Aesop looked at the Duke in surprise and asked, "Are you serious?"

"Of course it's serious!"

Aesop's expression immediately softened, and he patted the Duke on the shoulder and said affectionately, "That would be great. I'll help you restore yourself to the old tree you once were."

The Duke nodded gratefully, but then felt something was wrong.

After going back and forth, it seems like I got nothing, but I have already handed over all the magic contracts. What is the purpose of this?

When the Duke thought of this, he felt sad.

But the sadness was not over yet. When the Duke saw Aesop pick up the popsicle again and even condense the tip of the popsicle into a shovel shape, a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.

"Uh, that Lord God's Messenger." The Duke's heart was pounding, but he still asked with a last glimmer of hope, "What do you want to do?"

"Of course, you have to get rid of the saplings," Aesop said. "Otherwise, how are you going to get your old tree back?"

"So, when you say eradicate..." The Duke's mouth twitched slightly, "you're not really referring to eradication in the physical sense, are you?"

"Of course, Bi. Disciples of the Dark God Gunara never lie." Aesop made his position ready. "Don't worry, I'm very experienced. I guarantee I won't leave any trouble for you."

The Duke subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Aesop was too lazy to talk to him anymore and just picked up his weapon and went up.

At that moment, the Duke finally understood what Aesop meant when he said at the beginning, "What we believe in is that great strength can bring about miracles."

The servants who watched the scene that followed will never forget it in their lifetime.

The specific details cannot be described, only the Duke's heart-wrenching screams continued to echo in the mansion.

When everything was over, the Duke collapsed on the ground, looking like he had been beaten to a pulp. The scene was truly horrific.

Aesop couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.

It wasn't that he was intentionally torturing the other party, but that was just how life magic worked. When the goblins first created life magic, they were really trying to make miracles happen with great force.

Without the courage to fight to the bitter end, how can we survive in this cruel world?

So Aesop took a desperate gamble on the Duke, and the effect was quite good.

In return, Aesop finally obtained the magic contracts of all the puppets belonging to the Duke's Mansion.

These thousands of magic contracts were piled up into a thick stack.

"This, this is the contract I hold," the Duke said, panting. "About seven hundred of them are in Loen City, and the rest are elsewhere, working for me... ahem, for me."

Aesop looked at these magic contracts carefully and found them a bit troublesome.

The process of destroying a magic contract is quite complicated. The signatures on each contract must be erased one by one, and then destroyed with magic. Only then can it be considered destroyed successfully.

Aesop didn't want to come one by one, otherwise if he delayed too long, it would easily attract that crazy woman from the Vatican.

So he waved his hand, and azure flames fell from his fingertips, dripping onto the first magic contract, and then quickly spread.

That should do the trick.

Aesop waved his hands, and watched the contracts that had bound the puppets for hundreds of years being burned out bit by bit in the flowing flames, feeling a sense of annihilation.

But suddenly,

Aesop saw that one of the magic contracts was about to burn.

The contractor above seemed to have changed from Duke to his own name.

Who would believe one, three, two?

"What the hell is going on?"

In the Duke of Rune's residence, Youti, Amat and a group of church knights rushed in so fiercely that their posture almost scared the Duke's old tree, which had suffered so many disasters, into withering.

It wasn't that Yuti was specifically looking to cause trouble for the Duke; rather, she and Amat were leading their troops across the world searching for the tainted angel when they saw that all the puppets in Loen City had been instantly freed from their contracts and become free citizens. As free citizens, they would now be protected by the Church, and Yuti would no longer be able to watch over them.

But this was not the point. The point was that the sudden release of the contract was too abnormal. It was hard for Youdi not to think of that damned guy, so she naturally traced the source and rushed to the Duke's Mansion, which controlled more than 90% of the puppet contracts in Loen City, hoping to find and capture that damned guy here.

Sure enough, after seeing them, the Duke's expression became very unnatural and his speech became hesitant.

"Well...it's nothing, actually. I just suddenly felt that it was a peaceful time, and using slavery in Loen City was too backward and too inhumane...ahem, so I suddenly had the idea to cancel all the contracts."

Listening to the Duke's explanation, Youdi narrowed her eyes slightly, obviously not believing a word of it.

Conscience discovery?

A guy who has lost his conscience for so many years actually has a change of heart?
