Chapter 86: An Unexpected Deal
Faced with her mother's persuasion, Rose felt a twinge of helplessness.
"Mother, I have already told you, you don't need to come up with solutions for me. I can handle the issue of the lust poison within my body on my own."
Succubus Queen Lilith, upon hearing her daughter's response, wore an expression of deep concern. She still hoped to persuade her a bit more.
Rose then placed the book she was holding onto the table and quickly left the room.
"Mother, if you wish to continue your persuasion, you can talk to the book! I have other matters to attend to!"
Rose dashed out of the Succubus Castle, heading towards a territory not far from the castle that was exclusively hers.
In this territory, even her mother, Succubus Queen Lilith, would be unable to find her.
Succubus Queen Lilith watched as Rose's figure disappeared and sighed, "She's really a handful."
Upon arriving at her exclusive territory, Rose immediately saw a message from Charles.
[Rose: A big deal? What kind of big deal? Tell me about it.]
Charles was thrilled to receive Rose's reply within the territory.
If Rose could provide him with all the materials he needed, he could handle all the matters within the territory in just a few days.
Then, he could leave Serene Forest and head to the Desert of Sands at the earliest opportunity.
[Charles: I need you to provide me with some very precious materials. I can trade you Mana Stones for them. Mana Stones are an extremely valuable resource, which I believe you would definitely want.]
Charles then sent over the detailed information about the materials he needed.
Of course, Rose also hoped to obtain as many Mana Stones as possible.
Although Mana Stones couldn't completely neutralize the lust poison in Rose's body, they could slow down its accumulation.
With this in mind, Rose decided to strike a deal with Charles.
However, a new idea suddenly popped into her mind.
[Rose: I can provide you with these materials.]
[Charles: Excellent! How many Mana Stones do you need? As long as the price isn't too outrageous, I can provide them!]
[Rose: I don't need Mana Stones to complete our transaction. Instead, I need you to help me with something. If you can successfully do this for me, I'll provide the materials for free.]
The message Rose conveyed caused Charles to hesitate slightly.
Charles knew that the materials he needed from Rose were extremely precious.
Moreover, the fact that Rose didn't ask for Mana Stones this time but instead requested him to do something meant that this task must be incredibly challenging.
[Charles: Can you tell me what exactly you want me to do?]
[Rose: Aren't you the self-proclaimed Zerg Overlord? Why are you being so cautious? Don't you trust me?]
"Is the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan really that easy to deal with? If I truly make a move against him, wouldn't that mean I am declaring enmity with the Fallen Angel Clan? And as you mentioned, his father is none other than Lucifer."
"How long do you think I could survive after offending Lucifer? Isn't your current plan pushing me towards certain death?"
Charles angrily questioned Rose. Exclusive tales at m-vl-empyr.
Charles's anger was, of course, understandable. After all, the power of the Fallen Angel Clan was anything but weak.
Charles was already at odds with the Elven Royalty and the Serpent Emperor. If he were to also become enemies with the Fallen Angel Clan, the situation he would face next would be dire in the extreme.
Rose smiled and persuaded, "Don't worry. I have a rare artifact that can mask your aura. Even if you strike against the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan, he won't be able to identify you."
"As long as you complete this task, I can give you this precious artifact. I think such a deal should be entirely acceptable to you."
Rose's words made Charles less angry than before.
Charles had already planned to use a secret method to conceal his aura.
But if Rose could indeed give Charles an artifact that could mask his aura, he wouldn't need to go through the trouble of using the secret method.
Moreover, if this artifact truly worked, attacking the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan wouldn't seem so risky.
Rose noticed Charles's hesitation and further added.
"Besides this artifact, I can also provide you with all the materials you need for free. And you can earn a chance for me to assist you directly."
Rose offered her final bargaining chip.
If Charles still didn't agree, Rose would have no other options.
After hearing all the conditions Rose proposed, Charles paced back and forth in the room twice. Ultimately, he decided to take the risk for potential riches.
"Deal! I will strike against the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan during the banquet as you wish. However, I hope you can arrange the entire operation more meticulously."
With Rose's help, Charles could move freely within the Succubus Castle.
The only concern for Charles was whether he could achieve victory when he made his move against the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan.
If he couldn't quickly defeat the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan, the succubus in the Succubus Castle would also aid the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan.
Charles continuously pondered over what tactics he should adopt. Before Rose left, Charles specifically reminded her.
"If you want me to succeed quickly during the operation, you should provide me with more information about the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan. I don't even know his level of power."
Rose smiled and nodded.
"Don't worry about that. After the banquet starts, I'll have a chance to chat with the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan. I will get all the information you need."
"And all you need to do is prepare for the battle. Although I don't know the exact strength of the fourth prince of the Fallen Angel Clan, as Lucifer's favorite son, he surely isn't weak."
After saying this, Rose left the room immediately.
Charles didn't care where Rose went, because the most important thing for him now was to prepare for the upcoming battle.
