Chapter 572 Refine
"Evergreen, what''s wrong with you? There is no need to act like that, right? It''s just an eye color.." Robin took two steps forward and extended his hand, clearly trying to pat the deer girl''s head.
But Evergreen increased the distance between them and raised her small hands, "JUST..!! Just give me some space for a moment, please." Then she started walking back and forth slowly
Robin''s silver avatar furrowed his eyebrows slightly, then sat there, watching Evergreen''s movement with his eyes...
Although there was something that prevented her from finishing her words a little while ago about the fate of people who had witnessed an evolution in their own Eyes of Truth, the disturbed and frightened expression on her face said a lot, well, at least they didn''t see to have a happy life.
As the minutes passed, Robin''s questions turned to anxiety. How could this little girl not know something about him make her act like this? After about ten minutes, he couldn''t see her acting like this anymore and spoke, "Little miss, don''t you see that you''re exaggerating too much? You may look cute, but in the end, you''re a lump of dirt floating in space, What I''m going to be in the future is none of your business."
"How is it none of my business when you will be my owner?! After you finish refining me I will be tied to your war chariot. If you win, then I will have glory with you, and if you are killed, then I may be forever ruined because of you!" Evergreen stood up and stamped her foot on the ground, clearly angry at the description of the lump of dirt
"Oh? Do you still agree about me refining you?" Robin raised his eyebrows, maybe the situation wasn''t as bad as he thought
Evergreen looked away, "Whether or not I agree is not important. I can encourage and help someone to refine me more quickly, but I cannot prevent the refinement process no matter how much I hate my new owner, the best I can do is to dy him a little. This is one of our irondws, we belong to the strongest avable refiner."
Robinpletely ignored that he heard new useful information, and focused on the fact that the''s spirit thinks that she is in trouble because he is about to refine her... What kind of situation is this? A while ago she was the one trying to convince him to refine her and technically begging him to stay with her, but now it seems like she wants to kick him out sooner rather thanter.
Is engaging with him this bad?! Of course, he couldn''t ask her why, because he saw what happened to her when she tried to talk about it a while ago, digging into this matter was pointless
"...Listen, I don''t know what you know and I don''t give a damn either. I will make my own future path and not allow my fate to be assumed halfway." The worried expression on Robin''s face slowly disappeared and turned into anger mixed with pride, "I am a person who has enough pride to cover all Heavens and Earths. If a strong person refuses to obey me, I will beat him until he kisses my feet and asks to be my ve, and if a powerless person refuses to follow me, I will feel disgusted with myself if I force it... You are free, I will not refine you until you ask me to."
Then Robin stood up and a dreamy silver aura began to emanate from him. It was clear that he was about to leave the''s spirit domain!
"WAIT!!" In an instant, Evergreen reached out and grabbed Robin''s wrist
"Hmm?" Robin''s silver avatar looked at the girl''s hand and then at her face with furrowed brows and reversed his decision to exit, "What exactly do you intend to do?"
"I... Damn it!!" Evergreen let go of him hesitantly, then took a few steps towards the huge green orb and kicked it, then after a few seconds she opened her small mouth again without looking at him, "I''m just weighing up the risks and benefits here, okay? I can''t tell you how and why but this is a big decision for me, Just give me some time..."
"...." Robin waited a while, then sat down again and closed his eyes.
Minutes or perhaps hours passed, Robin did not know... All this time he tried more than once to focus oning to conclusions from the words of the spirit, but every time the terrified look on Evergreen''s face interrupted his train of thought. What exactly does that girl know?!
"To hell with it, why not?!"
After an unknown time, Robin heard a shout that forced him to open his eyes, "Hmm?"
He found Evergreening towards me with a gentle, firm look, "I agree to have you refine me, but under one condition."
Robin whistled softly, "I thought you didn''t have a choice to say yes or no?"
"...."
"Okay, okay, please say your condition." Robinughed heartily and waved, the anxiety in his chest relieved greatly
Evergreen looked into Robin''s eyes for a moment, then continued, "I want you to build your military bases here and settle at least part of your army with me, and do not consider me a ce you will only take resources from. To put it crudely, if I am going to jump into missy wars with you, I must be in the front rows! In return, my help to you and the information that I will give you will increase automatically. I will not wait for you to request something or ask me about something. As long as I think this will benefit you, I will guide you to things that you cannot imagine without you even asking, Deal?"
"You think a lot. What wars? I have just a small thing going on on a called Nihari, after I finish it I will have my Empire live in peace." Robin shook his head with a smile
"A small thing going on... Of course, it will always be a small thing going on that needs to be taken care of.." Evergreen showed a sarcastic smile, "If you think my request is simple and I might be overthinking, it''s okay to promise me it, right?"
Robin quickly raised his eyebrows, what does this mean? Is there something he hasn''t noticed yet?!
After a few seconds, Robin nodded, "...It''s okay, I''ll change my n for you. I''ll build cities here and consider you a pivotal under my authority. Are you satisfied now?"
"...Hoo~ Well you can start," Evergreen said these words with great difficulty, then cleared the way for Robin to see the huge green orb in front of him.
As for Robin, he did not take his eyes off Evergreen for a moment. He saw her features changing between anxiety and excitement quickly, It seemed like she had gone crazy for a moment! He wanted to say something, but he preferred to give her some time to finish what she was thinking. Then he moved towards the huge green orb... Towards the spirit of the.
Robin raised his hand and ced it on the orb, then closed his eyes.
After a few minutes or so--
*Oooomnnnn*
"It''s not that difficult... I''ve already reached 1%." Robin muttered while still closing his eyes, If the Tree Fathers heard those words, maybe there wouldn''t be a war since they wouldmit suicide out of anger!
After a quarter of an hour--
"2%, this took me a little more time..." Robin''s eyebrows furrowed slightly at the sudden difficulty, the same 2% took the tree fathers about 30,000 years to finish.
After one hour--
"3%! Evergreen, why is this getting harder? Is my soul not strong enough?!" Robin opened his eyes and looked behind him, his hands were still on the green ball
The deer girl raised both her hands, "This is an automatic resistance that must happen. I''m supposed to try to dy your refinement sess until others know what''s going on and you have a newpetition in which the strongest person wins. Sorry, this is something I can''t undo, but I''m already reducing the resistance quite a bit, be ready, the more the refinement percentage you umte, the less your speed will be. Of course, when your strength reaches a certain level, this type of resistance will be negligible!"
"....." Trying to dy the refinement until morepetitiones? Robin didn''t know what to say, so he silently returned to the polishing process again
After 3 days---
"The refinement process has reached 10%, this is enough for now. I have a meeting with my followers that I cannot postpone any longer. I wille back to continue the processter." Robin finally lifted his hand from the huge green orb and then spoke towards Evergreen, before disappearing from the field without waiting for a response from her.
