The Greece Antagonist-Chapter 850 - 32: Selling Yourself? A Young Girl? _2

Chapter 850: Chapter 32: Selling Yourself? A Young Girl? _2

Luo En made up his mind and prepared to leave the dry lakebed littered with chopped meat and holes.

However, the elf girl named “Celebrian” swiftly stood in front of him, speaking anxiously:

“I still have some companions captured by the Dark Elves!”

“So what?”

“You are very strong, please help me rescue them!”

“No time.”

Luo En shook his head bluntly, refusing and continued walking forward.

He had no fondness for these Light Elves of Alfheim.

Back then, the Divine War between Asa and Warner was sparked because the Light Elves were incited and turned against, leading to successive defeats of the Asa Divine Race, forcing Odin to prematurely mature Hela.

Strictly speaking, these Light Elves also had a hand in Hela being sent to Helheim.

But Celebrian wouldn’t give up, she immediately grabbed Luo En’s hand:

“I was the one who freed you from the seal! Don’t you think you should repay me?”

Luo En heard this and laughed sarcastically:

“Firstly, I was sleeping, not sealed. You kicked me without understanding the situation, and I haven’t even settled that account with you. Secondly, I just saved you from those Dark Elves, strictly speaking, you owe me a favor, you should repay me first.”

Realizing her misunderstanding, Celebriane’s face turned slightly embarrassed:

“I can give you money!”

Luo En glanced at the ragged elf in front of him, slightly raised his hand and opened the Magic Circle Diagram, gold flowing into his palm like water:

“How much do you want? Take a look.”

“…”

Being disdainfully looked down upon by a wealthy individual, Celebrian’s face stiffened slightly, she hurriedly changed her offer:

“Weapons! My family has many finely made elven weapons, very valuable!”

“Fancy but impractical, I don’t need them.”

“Jewelry, all the jewelry on me is available for you, embedded with many gemstones!”

“I have more in my treasury, do you want any?”

Luo En responded grumpily, and then earnestly reminded,

“Little sister, trade is not about what you have, but what the other party wants. The price to hire me, you probably can’t afford.”

Seeing that the person opposite was impervious to persuasion, the proud and self-respecting Celebrian was left red-faced, then pale with anger.

But thinking of those companions who fought desperately to protect her and ensured her safety, she forcefully bit her lip and forced herself to calm down.

After pondering for a moment, an idea flashed in Celebrian’s mind, and she shouted towards the only lifeline she could grasp:

“Information! I can tell you about the happenings in the Nine Great Kingdoms!”

Seeing Luo En stop at the sound, Celebrian was greatly encouraged and continued:

“You just woke up, you must want to know what is happening in the Nine Great Kingdoms, I can tell you! In exchange, help me rescue my companions!”

Luo En turned his head, appreciating the elf girl’s sudden insight:

“Actually using that as a bargaining chip, you are quick on the uptake.”

“You agree?” Celebrian asked excitedly.

Luo En’s smile faded, and he shook his head:

“No, I refuse!”

“Why?” Celebrian’s face stiffened.

“Because it’s not equivalent. A few pieces of information, I can get on my own if I take some time. Getting involved in the messy affairs between Light Elves and Dark Elves would be much more troublesome.”

Celebrian, hearing this, was unable to retort.

She gritted her teeth and threw out her last counteroffer:

“How about if I include myself!”

Luo En stopped walking, turning back and looked Celebrian up and down.

As he remembered, the future Elf Queen was blonde and blue-eyed, with a beautiful face and a tall figure, her demeanor noble and elegant, exhibiting an ethereal and transcendent aura, almost parallel to that of the legendary Goddess.

But…

Luo En’s gaze finally fell on Celebrian’s yet to flourish chest, losing interest and he shook his head despondently.

Too young, not developed yet.

“Human, you seem to be thinking something disrespectful…”

Noticing that untoward gaze, Celebrian gritted her silver teeth, straightening her face and added,

“I mean, I can become your guard, serve you for ten years in exchange for your help.”

Luo En heard this and sneered, shaking his head:

“Little sister, the price you set for yourself seems a bit high.”

“To have a High Elf willingly lose their freedom and become a follower is something quite prestigious and respectable for you people of the Central Court. No amount of Gold could buy that. Moreover, I carry the blood of the three great Elf royal families and am fluent in many languages. Taking me with you, you definitely won’t be at a loss!”

Celebrian replied, raising her head high and displaying the inherent pride of Elves.

Watching the young girl trying hard to sell herself, Luo En couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Who was it that served as his assistant last time?

If he remembered correctly, it seemed to be the Princess of the Warner Clan—Valkyrie Freya.

In terms of value, she was much more valuable than this one.

“Are you unsatisfied?” Seeing that he still hadn’t agreed, Celebrian continued to up the ante with gritted teeth, “Thirty years! As long as you are willing to help me rescue my companions, I am willing to serve you for thirty years!”

During her speech, the girl’s voice trembled slightly, and her face was somewhat pale.

Clearly, for Elves, losing their freedom and becoming a vassal to others could be more painful than death.

“What is your relationship with them? Your relatives?” Luo En asked curiously.

“No, they are just my maids,” Celebrian replied truthfully, then added, “But to protect me, they all stayed behind to cover my retreat. If there was no chance, it would be fine, but now that there is an opportunity, I naturally will do everything to rescue them!”

Hearing those resolute words, Luo En was momentarily surprised and impressed.

Elves are naturally prideful; being able to lower their status and interact amicably with other species is already rare, and an Elf Princess willing to abandon her freedom for lowly maids, asking for help from outsiders, is even rarer.

However, admiration aside, Luo En still didn’t soften:

“What if they are already dead? Then all your effort would be in vain, and you’d also lose yourself. Forget it.”

“They won’t be!” Celebrian confidently answered, her eyes shining with wisdom, “In two days, it will be the Sacrifice Day of the Dark Elves. Only living sacrifices can please the Evil God Rose better! If you help me, I’m confident I can rescue them!”

Hmm, brave and wise.

Except for being a bit young and immature, she was almost an exact replica of the Celebrian in his memory.

Well, since he was investigating the impact of the blend of his memory and the Nordic World and hadn’t found any clues yet, he might as well start with her.

Luo En made up his mind and smiled as he spoke:

“I can help, but the terms need to be changed.”

“Tell me!”

Seeing there was significant progress in the negotiation, Celebrian couldn’t help but show a delighted face.

Luo En nodded and stated his own terms:

“I’m expensive. The price for thirty years of service is not enough; at least three hundred years.”

“That’s too much!”

Celebrian shook her head resolutely, refusing outright.

Although Elves are a Longevity Species, with a lifespan of around a thousand years, to lose three hundred years of freedom to serve a human was too much to accept.

However, a complete refusal wasn’t an option either since her several maids were still waiting for this powerful Human Wizard to rescue them.

After thinking it over, Celebrian suddenly remembered the tactic of “bargaining” she read about in books, and her eyes lit up, she said solemnly:

“In that case, human, I can protect you until the end of your lifespan!”

As a species with a short lifespan, humans generally live only about a hundred years, far less resilient than elves.

Including various natural and man-made disasters, even fewer humans die a natural death.

With this condition, she definitely wouldn’t be at a loss! Celebrian felt proud of her wisdom.

Hearing this, Luo En paused for a moment, then his eyes expressed a strange smile.

How come some people increase their offer even more when bargaining?

He then tried to suppress the smile that was about to burst from his face, nodding repeatedly:

“Agreed, it’s a deal.”

“Words alone aren’t enough. We need to make a pact!”

Celebrian cautiously proposed, pulling the powerful human wizard to take a blood oath together.

Only after everything finished did she heave a sigh of relief, feeling unburdened.

Now, it seemed like her maids might be saved.

But for some reason, Celebrian felt an ominous premonition.

It seemed like she had missed something crucial.

“Alright, lead the way, let’s set off now!”

Her solemn pondering was cut short by Luo En’s interruption. Before she could react, a hand was placed on her shoulder, sweeping her through the forest like Lightning.

Feeling the sharp wind blowing against her face, Celebrian suddenly realized the crux of the situation, her body feeling like it was struck by lightning.

Wait, did he ever mention he was human?
