"Why?" Hikaru frowned, feeling a little uneasy.

Narita shook his head and explained: "The level gap is too big, and I have my pride, also I don't want to be a slave to someone who is too low-class."

Hikaru: "..."

Are you looking down on me?

Surely you are looking down on me.

Do you believe that I would hit you on the head with the Void Hole?

Hikaru took a deep breath, and silently said 'calm down, you must be calm'.

"Besides... you're not handsome either."

Hikaru: "..."

[Master! Calm down, don't be impulsive. Be calm!]

"Sorry, I'm just saying the truth."

"Do you believe I'll break your skull with this thing?" Hikaru angrily said, "So.. do you want to stay here until your bones rot."

"Wait!" Narita suddenly lowered his voice, and his voice was much softer than before: "We can make an equal contract."

"Equal contract?"

"That's right. I will serve you for 100 years, in that 100 years whether you become the greatest lord in this world or not, I will take my leave."

Hikaru sighed and said, "I said I don't care if I become a great lord or something like that."

"You don't have a dream? Pitiful.."

Hikaru frowned, he really wanted to take the Void Hole and smash Narita's skull. What the hell is this guy? He is constantly harassing me.

"You should have a dream. Then.. let me help you find a dream."

Hikaru shook his head and sighed: "No need, I have my own dream, you don't need to care about that."

"What is the dream?"

"I told you not to worry about that."

"There's no need to be shy, I am already dead anyway, I am just using another form to continue living. It's always easier to talk to the dead than to the living, isn't it?"

Hikaru made an expression like he was looking at a pervert. Does he know what the hell he's talking about?

"Are you.. are you normal?" Hikaru frowned and asked. He felt that if he cooperated with this person, the risk was a bit high.

It wasn't a matter of Narita's betrayal or not, but Hikaru was afraid that he couldn't help but take the Void Hole and smash Narita's skull.

Narita nodded and said, "Of course I'm perfectly normal, except that my current state is a bit abnormal."

"A little bit? I feel that your mentality and state are extremely unstable." Hikaru didn't hide it, and he said it bluntly.

Narita was not angry, he calmly said: "Because you haven't realized my potential. After you realize my potential, if you want to keep me, then I won't necessarily agree."

"don't worry.. you can stay here with your potential, and I'll go."

Hikaru didn't want to say much, he turned his head and left directly. Suddenly, he stopped and looked down at his feet.

At this time, Narita was lying on the ground, holding his legs with both hands, and looking up at him: "Please.. take me out. I've been in here for over 30,000 years. I'm going to be bored to death."

"You are already dead! It's okay to die one more time now." Hikaru frowned and said, he found this person annoying.

"You are cruel. Would you leave a lonely old man in a cold ruin like this?"

"That's right. You are a very evil person. If you still cling to my feet, do you believe that I will break your skull with this thing." Hikaru held the Void Hole in his hand, his face filled with anger as he spoke.

"Huh! I don't believe that thing can hurt me."

Hikaru gritted his teeth, he couldn't help but use the Void Hole and hit Narita on the head.

"BAM! BAM! BAM!"

Terrible crash sounds resounded. Each time the Void Hole collided with Narita's head, the energy released was so great that it caused the space to vibrate like a churning lake.

The surrounding energy blasts caused the space to be torn apart.

However, what was more terrifying was that Narita's head was still normal, and without even the slightest crack.

Hikaru gasped, he didn't feel tired instead he felt more angry. Even using the Void Hole couldn't hurt Narita.historical

Damn it! What the hell is this bastard's bones made of?!

Hikaru felt like crying: "Okay! What do you want?"

Hearing that, Narita immediately stood up, straightened his clothes, and acted like a nobleman just like before.

"Hm.. I just want to go to the outside world. But I can't go out by myself, that's why I need someone to help me out."

"Of course I won't let you help me for free. I will work for you for 100 years, besides, I will give you everything in this ruins."

Hearing this, Hikaru rubbed his chin thoughtfully, he asked, "Are we going to sign an equal contract?"

Narita nodded, "That's right. An equal contract is a contract that helps us to cooperate and work with each other with peace of mind."

Hikaru nodded, "That's fine. But what can you do to help me?"

Narita explained: "I can help you manage the territory. The amount of work a lord needs to do is immense, I don't think you can handle it all by yourself."

"Besides.. I used to be an aristocrat who ran a huge Kingdom. I have management experience, so I can help you a lot."

That's right, I used to rule the entire world.

Of course, Hikaru couldn't hear Narita's inner voice. This time, he frowned thoughtfully.

At first, Hikaru also needed a secretary to help him organize things. But..

Hikaru glanced at Narita, feeling that this person was unreliable. While he was thinking, Rika's voice rang out.

[Master, Narita can help you.]

"Why?"

[There are two reasons. The first, Narita's level is very high, he can become your main battle force. His strength is enough to help you fight players from another world.]

[The second, this is the most important thing. He has excellent territory management skills. Aren't you looking for a secretary who can help you? Narita is the best choice for you.]

Hikaru continued: "Rika, can the equality contract bind him?"

[No matter how high his level is, as long as he lives in this world, he must obey the laws of this world.]

[The contract of equality is still in effect on him as usual. Of course he can unilaterally disengage it, but with his state, he can't bear the consequences.]

Hikaru listened to Rika and he felt relieved, because he knew that Rika would never harm him. It's just.. she always wanted more members of his Harem.

However, Hikaru thought that perhaps Narita was male, so he was relieved now.

Even if Narita was a woman, he was not afraid. How could he love a skeleton.. hahahaha.. bullshit.

Thinking for a long time, he decided: "Okay, but I will give you a trial period of one month."

"Trial?"

Hikaru explained, "That's right. I need a secretary to help me manage my affairs. But I don't know if you can do the job, so I'll give you a month's trial."

"After 1 month, if you do well, we will continue to work together until the contract expires. And if you can't do this job, you have to return to this place."

Narita laughed and said, "Hahahaha.. of course I will complete the job perfectly. If you don't feel secure, you can let me try it for a month like you said."

After saying that, Narita raised his hand and a contract appeared in front of them. Hikaru carefully read the contract and nodded, using magic, he imprinted his hand on it.

This was just a probationary contract. The content was very simple, if what Narita did, did not satisfy Hikaru, Narita would be returned to this place.

"Good! Next.. you said you would give me everything in the ruins, right?"

Narita sighed, he didn't think that Hikaru still remembered what he said. However, for now, to Narita, no matter how much treasure he had it was not as precious as freedom.

"That's right." Narita finished speaking and took out a crystal ball and threw it to Hikaru.

"This is the core of the monument. With it, you can control the entire ruins according to your thoughts."

Hikaru smiled hearing that..

..

Seraphen who was sitting in the tunnel suddenly felt a little dizzy. Just a second later, she realized she was sitting outside the ruins.

"Heh?! What just happened?" Seraphen asked confused. She turned her head to look at the relic, it was still standing there, unaltered.

"So.. did I pass the inner test?" Seraphen muttered, she found it a little hard to believe.

But when she remembered the figure of that young man, she felt extremely secure. It was weird..

Seraphen sighed, waiting outside the ruins, hoping to see him again.

Just as Seraphen thought, Hikaru also appeared outside the ruins at this time. Seeing Seraphen, he was not surprised at all.

"Have you passed the test?"

Hikaru shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's right. You don't have to go inside, there's nothing inside."

Seraphen then frowned, then smiled and said: "You know who I am, don't you?"

Hikaru didn't hide it either, he nodded: "That's right."

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Scared? On the contrary, I find you a bit interesting." Hikaru laughed.

"Huh!" Seraphen pouted: "what? How does it feel to hold the Holy Maiden in your arms."

"You're a bit fat."

"Aah!! I will beat you to death." Seraphen shouted, her face flushed red. Even though she hadn't taken off her disguise yet, Hikaru still found her adorable.

"Huh! You should feel proud that you're a man who can touch my body."

"Ah! You should also be proud that you're the ugliest person I've touched."

"AAA!! You want to die, don't you?"

"Huh! You think you're stronger than me?" Hikaru smiled scornfully. Indeed, Seraphen was much weaker than him.

Seraphen now took a deep breath and said, "Hikaru, thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to overcome my inner test."

"No need to thank me, I can't help you either. It's all up to you."

Seraphen shook her head and said: "Huh! You don't even have to deny it. Do you want to be my servant? I guarantee to help you have a very happy life."

Hikaru pouted, "I don't need it. I feel that it is better for me to continue as the Void Lord."
