"Oh? I'd like to see what you can do. "Aoki's tone had a hint of ridicule.
This Geng Gui was not J.A.R.V.I.S's own sprite, but a legacy left to him by his father.
J.A.R.V.I.S was just about to let the Geng Gui attack, but he didn't expect Aoki's Geng Gui to be faster.
It appeared directly behind him.
Aoki's Geng Gui had absorbed the energy of Pluto Dragon Knight Ladina, and the concentration of Ghost Energy in its body was not comparable to that of J.A.R.V.I.S's Geng Gui.
So there was no wave and it was directly subdued by Aoki's Geng Gui.
After all, Ghost Sprites also restrained each other.
Especially when the Geng Gui had the complete advantage.
J.A.R.V.I.S's face was very ugly as he looked at the biggest trump card his father had left for him. It didn't have much resistance in front of this person's Geng Gui.
"Do you know when a person, especially a man, is the most embarrassed?" Aoki didn't ridicule J.A.R.V.I.S any more.
Aoki valued his ability, otherwise, he wouldn't have come to him.
J.A.R.V.I.S heard Aoki's words and was obviously stunned. He didn't react to the topic changing so quickly.
But Aoki wasn't in a hurry. He pulled out a chair and sat down directly.
Then J.A.R.V.I.S saw that the chair he had carefully made with a mechanism seemed to have completely lost its ability in front of Aoki.
"When?" J.A.R.V.I.S understood.
Whether it was the strength of the sprites or the mysterious science, he couldn't pose any threat to the person in front of him.
Since the other party could come here directly, it means that he knew him.
He didn't directly kill him, which means that the other party wasn't here to deal with him, but he didn't know what the other party's purpose was for the time being.
After figuring it out, J.A.R.V.I.S put the golden scepter in his hand aside and then pulled out two cups from his pile of tools and materials.
Another bottle of wine appeared out of nowhere.
He gestured to Aoki to make sure that Aoki did not object. He poured two glasses of wine, one for himself and the other for Aoki.
As if to prove that there was no problem with the wine, JARVIS drank all the wine in the glass.
There was no other way. After all, alcohol could boost one's courage. Jarvis's current state of mind was not enough. Facing Aoki, who did not know his specific purpose, he could only drink to boost his courage.
This way, even if he died, he wouldn't have to be so afraid.
This time, it was Aoki's turn to be surprised.
Of course, he understood what Jarvis meant.
He drank to boost his courage.
'This person seems … not bad.'
He took the wine glass with a smile and held it in his hand without drinking.
Jarvis poured himself another glass.
Judging from the way he drank, he probably drank a lot after his father passed away.
After two cups, he regained some of his courage and was able to look Aoki in the eye without trembling anymore.
He didn't know if it was a psychological effect.
"Of course, it's when this man is fighting for his career, but he hasn't succeeded yet and is being mocked and disapproved by countless people." Aoki took a sip of wine and said calmly.
The wine was strong.
There was no problem.
Hearing Aoki's words, J.A.R.V.I.S's heart resonated.
He felt that this sentence was completely used to describe the current him.
"However, it's not fat if you're fat first. Only when you're fat later can you overwhelm the bed. Every dog has its day. Don't bully the young for being poor." Aoki exhaled a breath of alcohol and said this famous saying.
'I haven't drunk for a long time and I've almost forgotten the taste of wine.
I haven't drunk since my rebirth. Today is a precedent. '
"Fat first …? Fat later? "J.A.R.V.I.S was obviously stunned by Aoki's words and could not understand.
Aoki also felt a little helpless.
'You've only drunk a little and you're already talking nonsense?'
"In short, you just have to remember the last sentence. Don't bully the young for being poor!" Aoki said.
"Don't bully the young for being poor …" J.A.R.V.I.S repeated.
"Uh … I don't think I'm that poor, I don't think … I'm a young man." J.A.R.V.I.S couldn't find anything wrong with Aoki at all.
A few black lines appeared on his forehead.
"Ahem, that's just a metaphor, a metaphor!"
With this, the unfathomable image that he had painstakingly created was almost destroyed.
"Forget it, let's cut to the chase.
Mr. J.A.R.V.I.S, I wonder if you're satisfied with your current state of life?
Was it only possible to fall asleep with so many traps set up around him?
Is it because this Geng Gui is by your side that you feel at ease? "Aoki crossed his legs.
Death asked three questions in a row.
Hearing this, the room that was originally a little entertaining fell into silence again.
Other than the sound of the mechanical clock on the wall, there was no other sound.
J.A.R.V.I.S's expression returned to its original ugly state.
As if there was something in his heart, he poured another glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
Courage.
"Sir, if you have something to say, just say it. To be able to find me directly and solve my traps so quickly, and to have such a powerful elf by your side, there is no one like you in the Kingdom of Azote. Tell me your identity and your purpose." J.A.R.V.I.S stared at Aoki as if he wanted to see through him.
Clap, clap, clap, clap …
Aoki clapped his hands.
He had to put on a good show, and he had to pretend to be unfathomable.
"It's very simple, I'm here to help you," Aoki said frankly.
Then, he continued, "As for my identity … Indeed, I'm not from the Kingdom of Azote, but I know this country better than you do, including your country's customs, the mysterious science that you're so proud of, and … your scientific genius, Eliphas."
"Help me? How can you help me? What can you do for me? "J.A.R.V.I.S said with a smile with a hint of disdain.
"You're just an outsider.
Don't you know that my father is the top minister of the Kingdom of Azote, and I've inherited his title? Now, whether it's status or money, I'm the best in the Kingdom of Azote.
What can I do for you? "J.A.R.V.I.S's smile widened as he spoke.
"Is that so?" Aoki said with a half-smile, but anyone could sense the ridicule in his words.
"Stop lying to yourself, J.A.R.V.I.S!
Everything you have now is only because of your father. Don't tell me you don't know that you're just a joke in the Kingdom of Azote.
You don't know how many people are secretly mocking you, and how many people are coveting your so-called top minister title. "
Aoki didn't hold back at all, and directly exposed J.A.R.V.I.S's biggest scar, exposing it to the sun.
“...”
J.A.R.V.I.S's face turned red. Maybe he wanted to refute but didn't know what to say, or maybe he was just angry, or maybe he was a little red from drinking.
Who knew?
Silence arose between the two of them again.
After a long time.
"Then what can you help me with?" J.A.R.V.I.S spoke with some difficulty.
"Power! Status! Certainty! And … Respect! "Aoki spat out a few words.
Each of them was like a bullet, hitting J.A.R.V.I.S's heart.
J.A.R.V.I.S's expression was complicated.
What Aoki said was what he really needed now.
It corresponded to the power of status and the respect of the entire Kingdom of Azote.
"Then what do I need to pay?" J.A.R.V.I.S asked.
It was impossible to help for no reason. This was the first truth J.A.R.V.I.S learned after his father left.
"Loyalty!"
