Endless Journey: Infinite Realms Chapter 248 I'm Hungry...

Chapter 248 I“m Hungry...

Alex certainly did not expect himself to be put on a spot like this, and his current frowning expression was a testament to that.
"…" Alex only wanted to gather information from Lingo, but because of Lingo's request right now, Alex has no choice but to reply to him already!
"Tsk, now because of what this guy did, I have no more chance of getting more information!" Alex thought to himself angrily as he let out a sigh. "If I don't give Lingo an answer now… my whole plan for today might be ruined!"
Alex then cupped his chin as he tried to think of the best way out in his current situation, but after a few seconds of thinking, Alex's eyes suddenly widened as he seemed to have realized something.
"Wait a second… What if this blue prisoner is the one that I should obtain from the Blue Moon?" Alex thought to himself with interest as he started to bob his head subconsciously.
"What if Lingo is the one that we actually need to use in order win? That… that actually is a plausible scenario…" Alex muttered to himself as he stared at Alina, who seemed to have reached the same conclusion as Alex.
"Alex… you are our leader, so it's up to you whether you should take that prisoner with us." Alina said these words with some sense of finality, which just made Alex feel more pressured.
"…"
"…"
After a minute of intense silence, Alex finally let out an audible sigh as he looked back at Lingo, who was staring at Alex with 'puppy-like' eyes.
"…." Alex repressed the shivers that he is feeling right now as he opened his mouth to talk.
"Oi what's your name again?"
"IT'S LINGO, MILORD."
"Oh right, Lingo. Well then Lingo, why the hell would I want to free you? Do you think I can just do that easily for you? Do you think I will just pop your chains off and let you regain your freedom just like that?"
Once Alex said these words, the hope in Lingo's eyes somewhat dimmed, but he still looked resolute, although some hints of desperation could now be seen on his eyes.
"MILORD DON'T TELL ME…. THAT YOU WANT TO MAKE AN UNBREAKABLE PACT WITH ME?"
"Heh, so you are actually sharp Lingo. Yes, I want to do that pact with you." Alex replied quickly, even though he had no idea on what the Unbreakable Pact was, or on even how it should be done!
"[Asteria]! Help me out here!" Alex whispered to the blonde fairy, who was sitting on top on Alex's head. "[Asteria], what the hell is an Unbreakable Pact? Come on tell it to me now! Or else I might be screwed here!"
"Hhmph hooman, this is what you get from acting too much!" [Asteria] replied with a patronizing tone in her voice, although she still gave Alex what he was looking for.
"Hooman, an Unbreakable Pact is an extremely binding agreement that will be made between two parties. An agreement under an Unbreakable Pact can be anything, as long as the two parties are in agreement with it. Should one member of the party breaks the terms of the agreement, they will receive a punishment!"
"[Asteria], give me an example."
"Argh fine hooman! I'll give you an example now! So… if there are two countries that are warring with each other, they can make an Unbreakable Pact on where they will not attack each other for 5 years. As long as they do not attack in 5 years, they will be fine. But if someone from either country makes an attack when the Unbreakable Pact is in effect, then the country which broke the rule will face massive punishment! In this example, the punishment will be death for all the residents of that country!"
"Oi oi oi [Asteria]! That just sounds too much!" Even when he was just whispering to her, Alex could not help but almost shout out in surprise as he heard her example. "I thought that will be good... I never thought it can be that dangerous!"
When Alex first heard [Asteria's] description about the Unbreakable Pact, Alex thought that he already got something that was desirable.
But when Alex heard about the punishment, he could not help but shiver as he realized that the punishment was just too great!
Not only that, but Alex also had some suspicions about the Unbreakable Pact that Lingo was offering.
It might be just Alex's hunch, but there is a high possibility that the Unbreakable Pact that Lingo was offering could be a hidden trap, although Alex was not sure on where the trap could come from. After all, it was Lingo who offered to make an Unbreakable Pact!
Since Alex had always trusted his hunch, he had fully decided to reject the offer for the Unbreakable Pact.
As he made this decision, Alex took a deep breath as he continued whispering to [Asteria].
"Is there any alternatives that I can use on this guy?" Alex asked the blonde fairy as he stared at Lingo warily. "Making an Unbreakable Pact with him sounds really tempting, but I don't like doing it right now! If I have some more time with me, I am sure that I can formulate a good agreement with him… But with what was happening today, I doubt that I will have time to make a good agreement!"
"Hmph hooman, if I can just make you pay lifespan for your questions, then I might have been rolling in riches now!" [Astera] grumbled to herself angrily as she glared at Alex "Tsk, you want to know an alternative way to make a deal with that blue prisoner?"
"Exactly, [Asteria]. Do you have any on your mind right now?" Alex whispered smoothly as he decided to ignore the blue prisoner for now. "Oh and if you have one, and if that info would be really helpful, then some of the King-Grade Honey that is with me could find their way on your arms…"
"Oi hooman! Listen well to what I will say! I will only tell this to you once, so you must use your ears properly!" As expected, [Asteria] became extremely motivated once honey was offered to her.
The blonde fairy even placed her mouth close on Alex's left ear enthusiastically as she started to talk.
"So hooman, you should first…"
****************
AT THE SURFACE OF THE GREEN MOON
If the blue prisoner was currently pleading for his freedom in the Blue Moon, something shockingly similar was also happening at the Green Moon.
A massive, green-skinned person that was covered in chains was currently kowtowing on the ground, with this person's body also trembling in fear.
"FORGIVE ME, OH INHERITOR OF THE ENLIGHTENED EMPRESS. I HAVE NEVER MEANT TO ATTACK YOU LIKE THAT EARLIER." The green person said these words with great regret as he gave Vera, the martial artist an extremely sorry look.
"Hmph, at least you know your place." Vera said these words with great difficulty as she seemed to be covering her ears. From the looks of it, she seems to be hearing a lot of things that were making her ears feel extremely irritated.
"I THANK YOU FOR YOUR MAGNANIMOUS THINKING…" The green person replied quickly as he gave Vera a grateful look.
The green person then looked at Ray as if he was trying to also obtain forgiveness from him.
"OH SUCESSOR OF THE MECH KING, I HOPE YOU HAVE THE HEART TO FORGIVE ME TOO."
"Hmph, will you stop talking once I forgive you?"
"I CAN DO MY BEST TO RESTRAIN MYSELF, MILORD, IF THAT IS WHAT YOU WANTEED."
"Well then, I forgive you already! Now, can you shut your mouth already?"
After Ray said these words, the green prisoner went silent for a few seconds, but he then started to talk as he stared at Noelle.
"AND AS FOR YOU, FOLLOWER OF THE DEAD EMPEROR, I ALSO ASK FOR YOUR FORGIVENESS. YOU MAY BE ONE OF HIS WEAK FOLLOWERS, BUT I CAN SEE THAT YOU ARE EXTREMELY CLOSE TO HIM. YOUR EMPEROR MAY BE ALREADY DEAD, BUT I WOULD NEVER WANT TO OFFEND ANYONE WHOSE CONNECTED TO HIM CLOSELY!"
"Oi! Didn't I just tell you to shut up?"
"I'M SORRY MILORD. I JUST COULD NOT CONTAIN MYSELF ANYMORE. SEEING ALL THREE OF YOU HERE IN FRONT OF ME MAKES ME EXTREMELY HAPPY AND NERVOUS!"
"What a f**king psycho." Ray could be heard muttering these words as Noelle hid behind Vera, who seemed to be scared of the green prisoner's intent stare.
"…"
"…"
"Noelle… she said that she forgives you too." Vera said to the green prisoner with exasperation as she let out a sigh.
Noelle nodded her head weakly behind Vera, expressing her agreement to what Vera just said.
"THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR KINDNESS TO SOMEONE LOWLY LIKE ME! I WILL ASSUR-"
"Hmph, now that we have already given you our forgiveness, perhaps we can go straight to the point already." Ray said as he interrupted the green prisoner's words. "What the hell do you want from us? You already told us about your origins and on how you were placed here. Since told us your personal life story with no qualms, you must have wanted us to do something for you. Tell me f**king prisoner, what is it that you want! Don't lie to us, my partner here can detect if you are trying to deceive us!"
"WELL MILORD, YOU REALLY ARE A SHARP ONE! INDEED, I WANT TO REQUEST ONE THING FROM YOU, AND THAT IS MY FREEDOM!"
"Your freedom?
"YES MILORD! FREE ME FROM THESE CHAINS, AND I WILL FOLLOW YOU ALL WHOLEHEARTEDLY! I CAN EVEN SIGN AN UNBREAKABLE PACT WITH YOU IF YOU ARE SUSPICIOUS OF ME!"
"Hoho, an Unbreakable Pact? That does sound appealing…"
"SO WHAT IS IT MILORD? ARE YOU INTERESTED IN IT?"
In response to what the green prisoner said, Ray just stared at the green prisoner straight in the eye as he said,
"Heh, you want to be free? Well if you want to, you must first-"
"Boom!"
Whatever Ray was going to say was cut-off, as a sudden attack fell from the sky, which hit the green prisoner directly in the face, making him roar in great pain.
The attack was a white spear of light, which disintegrated upon impact with the green prisoner.
As Ray saw what happened, his eyes widened as he gave his companions and the Devourers a completely enraged look.
His words were loaded with anger as he started to talk to everyone around him.
"F**king heads up everyone! It seems like someone from a different moon is attacking us at this moment! Don't f**king dilly dally right now! We have a fight to do!"
"!!!" Unsurprisingly, everyone immediately perked up with the Ray said, with most of them placing themselves on their battle poses. There were even traces of excitement on the eyes of some of the Devourers, as if they were thirsting for some fight already.
As for Vera and Noelle, they both looked ready too, although some sense of wariness could be seen on their eyes.
As these people prepared themselves, the other side has started to make their move.
Swishing sounds could be heard as hundreds of people descended from above, with all of them carrying weapons and abilities of mass destruction.
They were also carrying an aura of excitement with them, as if these invaders were extremely excited of the battle that was about to start now.
"MILORD! SOMEONE POWERFUL HAS ATTACKED ME!"
"Yes, yes, I can see that, Peína." Ray replied as he watched the invading army descend towards them. "Can you shut up for a second?"
"OK MILORD…"
**************
With just one look at the invaders above him, Ray already realized what these newcomers were planning to do. And obviously, Ray was not happy with it.
"So they are attacking us now to get the Green Moon? How bold of them to do so! Hmph, if they want to get this moon, they will have to get through all of us first!" Ray said these words in a high-pitched tone as he started to arm all the bombs that he placed all over the Green Moon.
As these invisible bombs started arming themselves, Ray started to laugh maniacally as he flipped a finger to the invaders from the sky.
"Come on you little s**ts! Come and attack us now! Don't tell me you little f**kers afraid to move in now?"
