Chapter 1850: Agreement

"Well, I'm not going to help in your argument. But for now, you can take care of them. After all, they're much safer with you and Hel instead of the War God Family." Theo explained.

"That's true. Those people will be trying to use his hearing to their advantage." Loki nodded in agreement. He knew what kind of power the enhanced hearing was. Lyrventh was extremely useful as a spy or a lie detector. When they discovered that talent, he would be used by them, especially since they had a hostage, Lydia.

Lyrventh might know about their scheme, but the enemies could use messages instead of verbal communication. And with that ability, Lyrventh would be called a monster by normal humans.

They feared that ability after all.

So, it was better to leave them in Loki and Hel's hands. At the very least, they wanted to teach the kids a bit more about their power. And these two seemed to have no intention of taking advantage of their talent.

Even if Theo wanted to take them, he had to wait until the airplane could be used.

Theo had agreed, but Lyrventh appeared to have some questions.

"Why are you helping us?" Lyrventh asked with a grim expression.

"It's simple. My objective is you." Loki pointed at Lyrventh, admitting his intention without hesitation. He didn't want to lie about this anyway, so he simply explained the reason. "Your ears are powerful. Though, I don't care much about it. Your ears might be the main attraction, but what I seek is that maturity of yours. Thanks to your ears, you grow mature so early.

"In addition to the current world, I'm impressed that you and your sister, who are basically a four years old boy and seven years old girl at that time, can survive like this."

"…" Lyrventh bit his lips. When the apocalypse started, he obviously had joined a few bases. At that time, he wasn't fully mature yet even if he had these ears. Still, with how those people were scheming at each other to take advantage of his power, he ended up leaving the base with his sister without anyone knowing.

And without his power, the base got destroyed not long after. There were a few betrayals, and it also made his sister grow.

That was why he managed to become this mature at seven years old.

It seemed that Loki first took his talent into consideration, but his growth was the one that piqued his interest.

"…" Lyrventh contemplated for a moment before asking his second question. "Why are you protecting us this way? If someone with your strength makes a move, you should be able to defeat everyone, right?"

Loki snorted as he coldly stated, "It seems you forgot something. Who are you? Who are they? I don't give a shit about all of you."

"…" Lyrventh was annoyed by his reply. But then again, he was just a random person that he tested. He couldn't really demand his help just like that. After listening to many people's schemes, he knew that unless he gave some benefits, not many people wanted to help them.

That was why he could understand Loki's stance and didn't give him any "The strong protect the weak" bullshit.

Lyrventh raised one more finger. "One last question. What are you planning to do after teaching me and my sister?"

"I'm not going to tell that, but this is probably one of the best things you can get." Loki refused to answer as if he knew Lyrventh wouldn't like it.

"…" Obviously, Lyrventh became suspicious of his real intention. But he had to consider his circumstances as well. He put on a condition, "You want me and I need you. You have tested me, so I'm going to see what you're capable of. I'm going to follow you first, but the moment I don't think it's good to stay with you, I'm going to leave."

"Of course." Loki smirked. Even if Lyrventh was mature, Loki was the God of Mischief. The reason why he agreed was simply due to his confidence in tricking Lyrventh in the future.

"…" Lyrventh felt like he had agreed on something bad, but he knew he couldn't really become too dependent on Theo, who helped him simply because he was curious. There was someone who would consider him as his disciple after all.

"Still, my sister will be the one to choose her future. I'm not—" Lyrventh wanted to add another condition, but his sister cut him off by saying, "I'm going with you."

Lyrventh fell silent and turned to her sister. She had a better life waiting for her out there, so he didn't really want to drag her with his circumstances.

However, Lydia seemed to have made up her mind.

"You have promised that we will always be together and rely on each other. Are you going to take back your words?"

"…" Lyrventh didn't know how to reply.

Loki maintained his poker face, but Theo could see his grin behind that calm face. He was actually enjoying it.

He knew Lydia was the best weapon against Lyrventh, so he just had to manipulate the situation where Lydia would be here as well. And if he forced Lydia to stay, he would be painted as a bad guy.

On the other hand, if he made Lyrventh and Lydia stay due to their bond, he would look like a justified person who had given them a chance.

Theo didn't know what to say. After all, these two had fallen into Loki's trap.

Since both of them had started arguing, Theo used a bit of his power to create an illusion of his voice.

'So, what are you waiting for me?' Theo asked.

The God of Mischief glanced at him, paused for a moment, and decided to point at the ground.

He said, 'I have a few things to talk about with you, but for now, I want you to help me dig a grave for him.'

Theo was surprised about the request, but he agreed out of respect for Theodon.
