Chapter 178 - 178 – A Nonsense (2)
After taking a deep breath, Ivan sliced his right forearm with the knife. Red blood immediately flowed from there, soaking the brown blanket that covered Leva's body.
"Hey, you who have great power! Come here! I give this blood to you!" Saying it out loud, Ivan clenched his fists. "Come here and give this woman another life! I beg you!"
Nothing happened. More and more blood soaked Leva's blanket, and Ivan's forearms began to tremble.
This went on for several minutes, and my colonists just stared at Ivan in silence. I'm worried for Ivan, but at the same time hope the ritual will work.
The big tall man started to look frustrated, then shouted, "Hey, come over here, you bastard!!! You want this delicious blood of mine, right!? You are free to drink it!!!"
At that moment, the scenery around me became blurry. Yeah, like when H came to me. However, this time something was different. Ivan's figure did not become blurry. He looked around frantically.
And when he saw me, he fell to the ground in shock. "W-who are you!? Where am I!? What …. Are you that being who has great power!? You can grant my wish!?"
"No…."
Ivan crawled quickly and hugged my legs. Weird, I can feel his embrace. I shouldn't be able to interact with him right?
"I beg you to bring Leva back! A woman like her deserves more to live in this world than me who can only fight!" The big tall man burst into tears. "I love her so much! I don't want her to die!"
"Please, let me go." I tried to get out of the man's arms. His behavior really surprised me. It turned out that this tough-looking man could plead like this. "I'm the guardian spirit of this place and not the being you summoned."
Ivan froze, looking up to see my face. "Then, where is that being of great power?"
"You mean me?"
We both turned in the direction the voice came from. The one who just spoke was H, the orange transparent figure who claimed to be the god. This time there was something different about him. He did not come alone but accompanied by a naked woman.
That tan skin and curly hair. Naomi was crawling like a dog with a mixed expression of confusion and fear.
That alone shocked me, especially when I saw some kind of transparent leash tying his neck. In addition to encircling her neck, the leash also extended to H's grip.
H raised the leash, which was the exact same color as his body color. "Ah, it's the first time I've had two offerings in such a short period. Usually, people don't have that strong willpower. So, most of the ritual will fail, be it to gain more power, revive the dead, stop a disaster, or something else."
"Why?" There were so many questions in my head, but only one word came out.
"I only give a chance to those who have big wishes." H shrugged. "But, of course, I don't want to grant their request for nothing…. Hey, you stay there, or I won't grant your wish." The orange figure pointed at Ivan, who was crawling to him. Ivan immediately froze and raised his hands.
"You are taking advantage of their desperation for your own benefit?" I asked with disgust bubbling in my chest.
Instead of answering right away, H chuckled. Then, a line appeared on the lower half of the figure's face. The line formed a broad smile that revealed teeth like human's.
Those are teeth that are a more solid color than the rest of the body.
The smile on that face was too wide. If H has ears, then the tip of the smile will reach both of his hearing organs.
I feel uncomfortable seeing that smile. It felt like something that shouldn't exist in a figure like H. The figure gave off a demon-like impression.
"I will not explain to you at length, my child." The mouth opens and closes when H speaks. "My business now is only with this man named Ivan."
I was about to argue with that figure, but no words could come out of my mouth. And when I want to approach him, my body can't follow my brain's order. I can only freeze in my place. I can't even move my finger.
H gestured for Ivan to come over to him. Ivan hastily got up and walked over to H frantically.
"Please, sir! Bring Leva back to life!" Ivan exclaimed with tears flowing again.
"I can do that." H shrugged. "But, there is something you must do."
The figure then lifted the leash he was holding for the second time.
Ivan looked at Naomi, who was still posing on four legs like a dog. The tan-skinned woman shook her head with teary eyes.
"You will be my toy." H continued his speech. "I will not explain at length. You can only choose yes or no."
What a bastard.
Ivan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, he spoke in a more steady and firm voice. "Okay, I'll do it. I would do anything for you as long as you can bring Leva back to life, Sir."
"Consider it's done." H nodded. The ghastly grin on his face was now gone. "Now, take off all your clothes. Including the bandages you have on your body."
"Eh?"
"You've seen this friend of yours, right? You have to be in a state like her to be my toy."
Ivan turned to Naomi again, who shook her head more intensely. Instead of obeying Naomi's signal, Ivan took a few steps back and began to take off his clothes one by one. After his body was not protected by anything, he began to remove the bandages on him.
"You have a great body. Looks strong and tough." H looked at Ivan's body which was full of dry wounds. "Don't worry, I'll erase all the wounds on your body."
Now, Ivan was standing completely naked.
"Pose like this friend of yours." H gave the order again.
Ivan knelt down, then put his palms down. Another leash emerged from H's hands.
"Ah, for you. I almost forgot to say something." H turned his head to me. "As you can see, this woman's body is with me.. So, your well will not be contaminated by her corpse."
