Vier’s two conditions.
For Xia Nan, they are beyond simply being "generous."
They are almost indistinguishable from a free gift.
Unaware of the concept of "world line deviation rate," nor knowing that the mage girl has already exceeded her planning goals.
From his own perspective, Vier has paid a considerable price, banishing a mature Red Dragon for the escort team.
Now thinking back, it is somewhat inconceivable, but the other party indeed accomplished it.
Based on this premise, she voluntarily relinquished the distribution of the spoils and instead put forward two ambiguous conditions to him.
Honestly, on the way here, Xia Nan had thought countless times about how much he must sacrifice to keep the [Dream Weaving Corridor] by his side.
This development completely exceeded his expectations.
Of course, despite this, his personality dictates that he wouldn’t blindly agree due to emotional fluctuations or feign generosity by offering extra compensation.
Instead, he begins to carefully consider the feasibility of the two conditions that Vier proposed.
Firstly, explaining to her the approximate effects of the [Dream Weaving Corridor].
Without a doubt, the special ability of [Dream Weaving Corridor] to improve Battle Skill mastery is a valuable magical device for any professional in this world.
Under normal circumstances, for the sake of his own safety, he wouldn’t possibly disclose the function of his Equipment to anyone else.
But the current situation is different.
Standing before Xia Nan now is a mysterious mage whose Professional Level is clearly not above Level 5 yet can permanently banish a mature Red Dragon with a Challenge Level of "17."
Background, strength are shrouded in mystery.
Within a reasonable context and with the other party not expressing hostility, even explicitly displaying goodwill as a teammate.
Xia Nan feels that he should not hide this information.
Or rather, facing her inquiries, if he deliberately conceals or randomly fabricates information, it might unintentionally lead the situation meant to proceed smoothly down a disastrous path.
Possibly evolving into unresolved conflicts between the two sides.
Thus, the only concern remains just some information that could expose his Golden Finger "attribute panel."
Given that Vier specifically suggested allowing private design aspects to remain hidden in her statements.
Then it shouldn’t be much of an issue.
The first condition can be accepted.
Xia Nan assesses the pros and cons in his heart.
As for the second condition—a favor to be used at least three years later for clearing the Dragon Nest.
It’s still okay, within an acceptable range.
Given his current growth rate, three years, he will be Level 5 no doubt, if not higher.
Under these circumstances, with a few trump cards he has, along with gravity-related special abilities, facing an ownerless Dragon Nest, he might not necessarily succeed, but staying alive shouldn’t be a problem.
Plus, Vier’s combat power is mysterious; analyzing the personality observed, the fact that she has proposed this already signifies her confidence; she can banish a giant dragon now, should be even more reliable in three years after adequate preparation.
Xia Nan secretly nods, he can’t help but recall Vier’s wording just now, feeling a bit puzzled in his heart.
A favor... can his favor really be worth so much?
After Vier presented those two conditions, no one spoke again.
The amber eyes are practically forced to stare tightly at the black-haired figure before them.
Even the usually lively chestnut-colored high ponytail has stopped bouncing.
The tension on the girl’s face is so dense it’s almost overflowing; faintly visible are the tightly closed teeth between lips that have slightly lost their color.
If someone possessed Mind Reading Technique-like abilities at this moment, they could easily sense Vier’s chaotic and jumbled thoughts: Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
"Why isn’t he speaking, are my conditions too harsh?"
"It shouldn’t be, didn’t I think about it all last night!"
"Why is he frowning!? Damn it, damn it, should I give up instead?"
"But if I propose to postpone the conditions now, will that generate a negative impact?"
"Agree or refuse, but be quick, be quick!"
"For heaven’s sake, say something..."
Finally, under Vier’s intense gaze, Xia Nan finished his contemplation.
His eyes refocused, looking at the mage girl.
Slightly nodding his head.
It’s hard to imagine Vier’s mood at this moment, as if the pressure accumulated in her heart was instantly relieved, her whole body relaxed.
If the other person wasn’t still standing beside her at this moment, she might have already slumped directly to the ground.
Sweat unnoticed has already dampened the shirt beneath the robe on the girl’s back, even affecting her breathing, making it slightly rapid.
Meanwhile, accompanied by the instantaneous relaxation after extreme pressure, there’s an unparalleled sense of achievement.
With her unwavering tenacious will, she temporarily overcame the fear shadow stemming from the previous life, once intensified and deepened again a few days ago.
Calm, composed and maintaining her boundaries, she has completed a transaction among adventurers with the man in front named "Omen of Death."
At this moment, Vier could not help but marvel in her heart, realizing that the experience of rebirth and the heavy burden of "saving the world" on her shoulders indeed brought her personal growth.
Perhaps she is still lacking in power compared to before rebirth, but her mental will is gradually improving and becoming firmer.
