nDror couldn't wait to open the space ring, his eyes started sparkling after seeing the number of crystals.
nHe also found some ores, herbs, books and other things.
nAt the same time the Evil sword started vibrating, but before the Evil sword could speak.
nDror interrupted,
" Shut up, I don't want to hear anything and don't even think about stealing...
"
nThe Evil sword was not happy and spoke with a snort
" I was the one who discovered the place and we explored the place together, It is only natural that we share whatever we gained.
nI will take 60%, you can keep the rest..
"
nDror started laughing in a little anger
" haha...you shameless Evil sword you should have thought of it before extorting money from me to do a simple task of searching for clues…. And now you even want a share in what I found… just curse your bad luck for not finding the ring first… don't even dream about a single crystal...
"
nEvil sword started vibrating more faster, there was a knuckle breaking sound
" so you want to do it the hard way
"
n
" Maya...
" with a single shout from Dror, the golden chain coiled around the sword out of nowhere and bound it tightly.
nDror had a smirk on his face
" I know how unreasonable you are so I have prepared… you can rest with Maya for a few days until you calm down..
"
nThe Evil sword knew it couldn't break free from Maya's binding, so it immediately changed it's tactics.
nA blinding light appeared,
nWhen Dror got back his sight blood spurted out of his nose.
nA very beautiful lady in torn clothes bounded by golden chains was lying in his room.
nDror thought swiping his bleeding nose
" Fuck did she really start watching Naruto… This Nympho is becoming more and more powerful, she can create such powerful illusions now
"
nThe lady started crying with a pitiful appearance
" please, please don't hurt me...
"
nDror was gobsmacked
" What kind of dramas have you been watching lately, your acting has improved drastically… I should give you an Oscar, but don't think about gaining any crystals...
"
nThe pitiful appearance of the lady immediately transformed into a solemn and cruel one and she spoke.
n
" Then next time don't look for me, if you need any help or when you don't understand something,… hrmm
"
nNow Dror was in a dilemma, he knew he couldn't offend the Evil sword completely.
nBut when he thought about losing his money ….
nAfter some thinking Dror spoke
" I will give you 100 mid grade crystals.. if you are not satisfied you can rest with Maya..
"
nThe woman muttered
" so stingy...
"
nThe Evil sword returned to its original shape and was freed, after receiving the crystal it happily started humming a song..
nEven though Dror was dissatisfied he couldn't do much about it, so he started going through the books and other things inside the ring.
nOne thing that got his attention was a black book-like object, he could see that it was some sort of machinery.
nAfter exploring the thing with his spiritual sense he found a slot to insert a crystal.
nDror carefully inserted the crystal and the book lit up creating a 3D hologram of a middle aged man.
nIt started speaking like a recorded video
" The person who is watching this recording, you have probably already found the remains of my body. Hah...The disaster appeared in the end and no one could stop it.
nThis is my will, If you promise to do one thing for me.
nYou can have all the knowledge and techniques that I have acquired until now.
"
nThen the recording remained paused.
nDror didn't know why it stopped, he tried shaking the thing and pressing here and there.
nHe thought the thing was broken, then a voice was heard from his side
n
" what a dumb ass, …. you should just make the promise and the recording will continue...
"
nDror was surprised at what the Evil sword said and asked
" you are saying that the recording will continue if I just make a promise like in the novels,
" I swear by the heavens and my dao heart.... this and this
" like that
"
nEvil sword started laughing
" puhaha… why don't you do it, it would be really funny to watch...
"
nDror was even more confused, then what kind of promise was this nympho talking about.
nWith a smirk the Evil sword continued, like a divine being giving lecture to the Dumb
" hmmm… the world has changed so much since the ancient times, not just in different fields of knowledge but also in the case of values and moralities…. Now they have to create, implement and even enforce laws to make sure there are moralities and values maintained in the society, what a tragedy….
nIn ancient times people followed a moral code without any common laws created by the government.
nA man's word was his law, he will remain true to it until death… no one had to force him to keep his promise.
nif a promise is made it would be kept no matter what…. Today they have created all these so-called laws because there is not much morality and code of honor among people.
nif they promise something today they may flatter away from it tomorrow that is why people sign written agreements and the laws have also been written down as a proof.
nWhat a disgrace…. This man is asking you to give him his word.
nIt doesn't matter whether you keep it or not because he thinks that if someone gives his or her word then that person would do anything and everything to keep it...
"
nDror was thinking quietly,
" this was indeed the case in ancient times, when people didn't have to sign any agreement and their word was enough.
nThe modern society has come up with all kinds of agreements and contracts because they don't trust each other's words.
nTruly one's word was one's law in the ancient times.
"
nDror spoke in front of the hologram with determination
" as long as it doesn't go against my principles or is something that I can't do, I promise to fulfill your last wish..
"
