The Witcher: Son of the Planes.
Chapter 473 The Book of Cain
"The Book of Cain?" Beit asked doubtfully.
"Well, haven't you heard of it?"
"I seem to have heard of this by accident, but I don't know what it is specifically about. Cain is the common ancestor of our blood race, but I don't know the details of this Book of Cain."
"It is said that this is a secret book of the blood clan, which contains supreme magic secrets. Go back and ask your uncle, the clan leader. He should know the answer."
"Boss, why are you asking this?" Beit felt that even if it was some supreme secret book of the blood clan, no matter how much it had to do with you as a wizard, you couldn't use it.
"Beit, we have known each other for decades. Although you were somewhat forced when we signed the contract, I have never treated you unfairly over the years, nor have I used you as cannon fodder on battlefields in other dimensions. Do you admit this?" Colin suddenly said seriously.
"Boss, why are you suddenly saying this?" Beit couldn't understand what Colin was trying to do. Was he trying to take advantage of my body by saying such "sentimental" things?
"Hehe, so, do you want to end our contractual relationship early?" Colin said to Beit seductively.
"End early? Are there any special conditions?" Beit looked at Colin warily. No way, does he really have some intentions towards me?
"As long as you agree to my two conditions, we can modify the contract and end your employment period early."
"Boss, just tell me what you want. As long as it's not a special request, I can agree to it."
"Well, first, you have to be my insider when I come next time and help me achieve my goal. Second, you have to help me make a copy of the Book of Cain. I want to see what's special about it."
"Hiss..., achieve the goal, what goal, you don't want to conquer the Twilight Plane? Make a copy of the Book of Cain? I don't even know where this book is, where can I make a copy of it?" Beit thought, neither of the boss's two requests is simple, it would be better to continue maintaining the employment relationship.
Seeing that Beit didn't say anything for a long time, Colin continued, "Look, according to the contract between you and me, you have to do whatever I tell you to do, as long as it doesn't intentionally endanger your life.
Neither the first nor the second requirement violates this principle, but I am using my rights to help you terminate the contract in advance. Are you still not satisfied?"
"Hmm? Is that so? It seems that what the boss said is right, but I always feel that something is wrong." Last time, Beit was fooled by Colin into signing a three-hundred-year contract. This time, he has to think more about what he says.
"Boss, you are not hiding some trap for me, are you?"
"What's the catch with these two clear requests? Don't you know me over the past few decades? I have always been honest with people and open to their hearts. As long as you are willing to help me achieve the above two points, we will modify the contract now."
Under Colin's constant instigation, Beit was also somewhat tempted. The key was that he didn't understand what the trap was. Anyway, it would be good to regain his freedom in advance. In this "holy war" crisis, maybe he would have a chance to be promoted to level three. Without the constraints of the boss, it might be easier to be promoted.
After Beit and Colin signed the contract again, he discovered something wrong. There was nothing much to say about the second clause. It was just about making a copy of the Book of Cain. All he had to do was find the book and make a copy. There was no trap.
The key is the first one, to be an insider and help Colin achieve his goal, but the purpose is not made clear and the right of interpretation belongs entirely to Colin.
This is sad. Colin can say that his goal is to conquer the Twilight Plane, or he can say that his goal is to conquer more planes. As for being an insider, it has nothing to do with achieving the subsequent goal. Isn't it up to Colin to explain?
It seems that I am still not out of Colin's clutches?
Me &, the boss is so damn cunning, I cry...
"Okay, okay, I don't have any other purpose. You are free now, so hurry up and help me get the Book of Cain. After I get it, I will find a chance to leave. As for you, at least for a short period of time, you will not be under my management. Think about it this way, aren't you happy?"
"Happy, I'm so happy, boss, thank you!" Beit said with a roll of his eyes.
"Don't be so poor. Go quickly. The sooner you get the Book of Cain, the sooner I can leave and you can be free."
……
Although the city of Kimia has become the frontier command center of the Church of Light and is heavily guarded, with Beit's strength, it is no problem for him to slip away. After re-signing the contract with Colin, he also began to fulfill the terms of the contract.
"Uncle, I have something important to tell you." As soon as Beit returned to Bruch Castle, he found Prince Bruya.
"What important thing?" Prince Bruya has fought against the cardinal many times in these days. Neither side can do anything to the other for a while, and the clansmen are divided into three factions. Although they are united as one in front of the enemy, their cooperation is not harmonious at all. It is good enough not to trip each other up. The powerful combat power of the Bruch clan cannot be exerted at all.
"That's right. Snape and I are not simply a savior. Instead, I signed a 300-year contract with him. I will obey his orders unconditionally."
"Bang!... What, how dare he? How dare he play with the elites of my vampire clan at his fingertips!" Hearing what Beit said, Prince Bruya slapped the armrest of the chair and stood up.
"Uncle, calm down, calm down. The boss was actually very nice to me. He never assigned me any dangerous missions. Moreover, the condition for me to sign a contract with him was that he help me return to the Twilight Plane. After I left here through the teleportation array, I arrived in a different world called the Skeleton Plane. I managed to become a small lord there with great difficulty. If it weren't for the boss, I would not be able to come back."
Given the binding force of the contract, Byte couldn't talk about the wizarding world at all, but he could still talk about the matters of the skeleton plane.
"Still loyal and affectionate?" Bruya muttered.
"Well, it's okay. This time the boss even ended my employment ahead of schedule, but he needs me to do one thing." Beit didn't even dare to mention being an insider or achieving Colin's goal.
"What's the matter?" Bruya thought it would be nice if he could free Beit in advance by doing just one thing.
"That's right, the boss wants to make a copy of the Book of Cain."
"Bang! What? The Book of Cain?" Bruya, who had just sat down, patted the armrest again and stood up.
"Yes, the Book of Cain." Beit swallowed and said slowly.
