GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?
1383 A Damsel In Distress.
Legion-5 isn't aiming to fool her or deceive her about his identity but he won't admit or deny anything. He intends to act completely ignorant of her accusation. But she didn't give up.
Maybe she would have given up if she could predict his actions the way she could predict normal people's actions. But she can't predict anything about him. There are other people who have used various items and methods to block her sight so this is unique.
However, this whole encounter reminds her of her conversations with Soverick. She was also blind to his future. When combined with the information that Jarkon and his squad have risked their lives to acquire, she is at least certain that he is related to Legion in one way or another.
She threatened him with a smile, "If all I am saying are fairytales then you wouldn't mind if I go around telling people."
"Go ahead and do that. In fact, write a book about it." He said with a lot of enthusiasm, "Send me a copy when you have published it. I am always interested in helping the young generation achieve their dreams."
Legion-7 chuckled within him. "This girl is not bad."
He completed that train of thought, "But she is not good enough."
They are not concerned that she found out what happened in Gattling plane and they are not concerned that she will tell people about it. For one, no one would believe her accusation about some parasite without concrete proof.
For the second reason, they can boldly take responsibility for what happened in the Gattling plane. The massacre of a plane with an engineered disease is not a new thing that Supreme beasts do.
If she aims to threaten or blackmail him with this information then she has another thing coming for her.
She frowned and said, "Don't underestimate me Legion. I can be a difficult enemy to deal with."
"Young lady, is this all you are here for?" he asked unconcerned about her threat.
"What did you think I came for?" She asked him in turn.
"This silly girl. She is always trying to get information out of us." He thought to himself with a chuckle.
Then he replied, "I was of the assumption that you are here to buy his freedom from me. Be gone if you don't want to."
"I am indeed here for a deal. I want to buy something from you but it is not only about his freedom."
"Oh. What more is there to buy from me?" he asked curiously.
"You should know what I want from you. After all, I sent people to track you down."
He frowned in displeasure. "Young lady, go straight to the point or get lost. I have no time to waste with jesters."
She sighed again before she replied, "I have come to make a deal for my freedom."
His frown remained. He asked with apparent confusion, "How can I give you your freedom? You don't appear to be a slave. Even if you are, you are not my slave."
She sighed in resignation. This will be the third time she has done so in a short amount of time. It is enough for her to understand that he won't admit to having any knowledge of her situation. So she had to improvise.
She started grimly, "I have an enemy who wants my life. He won't rest until he kills me. His name is Soverick. He is very cunning and powerful. I have tried to kill him several times and failed. He has even died once but he returned. There's nothing I can do to stop him. I want you to help me dissuade him or stop him from coming after me."
"I see," Legion-5 said in understanding. "This sounds like a very difficult matter. Surely you must have the appropriate price to pay for my assistance in getting you out of this dilemma."
"Yes, I do." She said.
"What is it then? Don't leave me waiting."
"I have information that will be very useful to you."
He laughed. He laughed so hard his body was rocking in his chair.
"Information? What information?" He asked in mockery.
He didn't wait for her to answer before he spoke. "I have a lot of information to sell to you too. Are you interested in the current location of the child of the Virut plane? Do you want to know where she has built her bunker? Do you want to know how many Origin gods she has on standby to protect her? Do you want to know what Orders she has given to the floating fortresses of her plane?"
She didn't reply. Her eyes stared at him with calmness. But that calmness didn't fool him. He knows that she isn't surprised that he knows that information and she also knows how he acquired the information, but it doesn't change the fact that all her actions are not hidden from him. That is not a pleasant experience for someone Like Salvini who thinks everything is in her control and likes to toy with people.
He asked with a sneer, "Well do you want to know or not? I have a lot more information but it will cost you. How about we do a swap of information?"
She wasn't scared into submission by the amount of information that he had about her. She replied, "I have no need for your information. But you wouldn't want to miss the information I have for you. It will help you grow stronger. You will be able to evolve to a greater level."
"Hmmm. Is that so?" he asked.
"What is this about information that can help us evolve?" Legion-7 asked. "The realm lord also offered the same thing. Is it a coincidence, is this realm lord working with her, or is there something truly helpful for us out there that everyone else can see but we don't know?"
This is not the first time they have heard of this proposal. What the realm lord asked for was too much a price to pay for the information so he is not hopeful about this proposal.
