The Primordial Record novel Chapter 1190

Chapter 1190: A Bargain

Rowan's blazing golden soul eyes were the only thing that could be seen in his Ascended body and he spoke slowly, every words carrying weight, he kept his mind free, allowing the knowledge and instinct he had gathered over the years to guide him, he could not plan against the Eye, it would easily see through him, the only chance he had was chaos, ordered chaos.

"If you know anything about me," Rowan said, "then you should know that everything you say to me will not work, for I will never believe your words, only a fool or a coward would do such a thing, I am neither of those things."

The presence rippled and a sigh came from it, "Unfortunately for me and you, I know this to be true, but I still know there is only one method that can make you see reason... I have come to bargain with you."

The Eye paused as if waiting for a reply, getting none, continued speaking,

"This bargain is something that is clear and without deceit, at this moment there is no greater truth that can occur between us."

"What is the bargain?" Rowan asked,

"My Anima for your complete victory in this realm. I shall not interfere in your matters, I will even aid you three times if you call upon my name, and my favors are not light. All your objectives will be accomplished, and you shall leave on your way to become a Primordial of your choosing. These are my terms, what do you say?"

Rowan chuckled incredulously, it was almost as if he could not believe what he had just heard, but this was all an act, "I will say reveal yourself, I am not in the habit of talking to faceless shadows... it reminds me of bad memories."

This seem to throw off the Eye for a bit before it laughed as well, and the darkness where only a gleaming set of teeth resided was dispersed, revealing the figure that the Eye was wearing, and Rowan recognized him instantly.

Even if the face was incredibly pale and held a smile that never reached the eyes, and those eyes... looking at it for any length of time would be dangerous to even a higher dimensional entity for there were secrets of antiquity written on every layer of it, and those layers were endless.

Rowan flinched, his heavy armored body nearly toppling backwards, this time it was not an act,

"Noah Rithmast?..."

"In the flesh,"

He knew of the broad strokes about the events that took place in the battle before he was killed, but he did not know of the little details, like how he came to lost the Eye, how this feeble Explorer was able to survive and in the end became possessed by it... so many things that he could not understand and this was his greatest weakness, and the Eye obviously knew it, but Rowan would be allowing this weakness to become significant. _{frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓}
