Chapter 11: Propose- euh, Negociation

On the tall mountain's summit, which almost reached the clouds, there was a beautiful pavilion and under the Flying Mountain, there were two high cliffs linking to each other. There were also a lot of floating stones that took shape of a spiral ladder winding upstairs.

Yue Yang didn't care of all the beast who roamed in the sky and passed them without them noticing and entered in the pavilion. Then he found it's target.

A headful of blazing red hair was draped over her shoulders and back. Her curls looked like fire, and from time to time, a beam of gold would flash from her body. These beams of gold was to signify the aura of a Gold-ranked beast.

At her back, there was a pair of angelic wings, but the colour of the wings was a brilliant gold instead of white. At the tips of the wings, sharp ends that looked like the wings of a devil were present, giving the sense of strangeness where good and evil coexisted together.

Most of the skin in front was bare. However, she had a few golden bands around her arms.

Her chest was covered by some type of crimson plate armour. On top, a violet-black cufflink connected a few pieces of silk between her two breasts. This crimson plate armour was clearly a special clothing. It barely covered the top of her areola that looked like a flower bud, giving people a kind of alluring sexual appeal.

Her stomach was smooth, with a deep and full navel, splitting her body into sections with a golden ratio. Her bewitching body looked even more perfect under this contrast.

Below, the same kind of armour covered her. It was just small enough to cover her most sacred little garden.

For an instant, Yue Yang wasn't able to think but he controlled his pulsion and then revealed himself. Yes revealed. Because during the last three months he learned the concealment technique of An Xi and even if it's at the same level, it was already cheated because even an Innate level 5 can't found him when he use it.

The Bloody Queen was startled by his presence who suddenly appeared from nowhere.

"Don't worry, i don't want to hurt you." Say Yue Yang with a gentle smile.

"-----------"Answered the winged beauty who attacked him directly.

The man dodged her before catching her arm and lay her on the ground, sitting on her stomach.

"Calm Down !" Yue Yang ordered while releasing a little of his aura, frightening the queen.

"I just want to negotiate with you. If don't find an accord then i will just leave."

"--- -------- --- --------- --"

"Are you saying that human can't be trusted ?"

"---"

"You are right, human are the worst race ever but, as i am concern, what i want will be mine. I want you, but i want you follow me from your own will. I don't need a beast that can betray me. For that, i will give you some argument. Want to hear ?"

"--"

"Ahah, ok." Seeing the bloody queen accept Yue Yang stand up and helped her to stand.

"As you have see, i'm far stronger than you. That my first argument.

Second, look at this."

And then he summoned his bronze grimoire before showing her the first page.

"You see, i'm a Innate but my grimoire is just at Level 1 Apprentice-Beginner. So if i level up my grimoire at the Level 9 Sage-Beginner there will be twenty four level up. As you perhaps know, when the grimoire level up the ancient code will reward us. It can be a new beast, a few new page, a level up or a rank up for the beast, and even a new Inherent Skill.

Most people think that the reward his random but the true is that higher our star evaluation his the better the reward will be.

Think a little, i can already kill some Innate as i'm just a Level 1, how high my evaluation will be ?

If you are my contracted beast you will gain a lot."

Just as he finish he could see in the eyes of the Bloody Queen the interest his word have created.

"Third, As i'm just Level 1, i can challenge the trial of the zodiac on the first floor. I don't think i need to explain further."

The winged beauty was silent and it was normal. The gain she could have following Yue Yang were enormous but her pride as a Golden Beast King was strong.

"I will give you one week to consider. I need to do something in the sixth floor. If when i return you can decide, i will give you a new argument. Then later. Take care of yourself, the new of the departure of your mother will be know of all and the one who want you will come."

And then he disappeared.

After some time he was in front of the teleportation circle for the next floor.

"You're finally here. I was waiting."

That was An Xi who waited for him from the moment they stepped on this floor.

"Sorry, it's just i didn't know the direction." Say Yue Yang with a sorry look on his face.

Without caring at all, An Xi questioned:"Have you finished you business ?"

"Nope but it's already in the pocket." Smiled the young man.

"Good then. What is next ?"

"Jadeit Forest on the sixth floor."

"You're sure ?"

"Yes!"

"Okay then."

The old man patted Yue Yang on the shoulder who disappeared the next moment.
