I am the descendant of a dark wizard, and I will inherit the family fortune.

"The difference between the sacrificial ritual and the summoning ritual..."

Temodo thought for a moment and tried to explain the difference between the two in the simplest language.

"To put it simply... the sacrificial ritual can also be considered a summoning ritual, but it's relatively stable and safer."

Leon raised his eyebrows slightly, "Safe?"

"That's right." Temodo nodded, "Some sacrificial rituals are also called exchange rituals.

Using sacrifices to exchange for rewards, but this exchange is by no means equal. The rewards on the other side of the abyss must be greater..."

Although Leon didn't know what the abyss here looked like, since it was related to sacrifice, it was probably not much different from his impression.

"Sir... there is one more thing I don't know whether I should tell you or not..."

"Hmm?" Leon was a little surprised, but nodded. "Professor Temodo, just call me Leon. No need to be so... polite..."

At this time, Temodo naturally would not really call Leon directly. On the contrary, his attitude became more humble.

"Master Leon, there is a saying about the abyss."

Temodo's tone wasn't as firm as before, and he even sounded a little timid...

"Professor Temodo, what is the explanation?"

"The Abyss is very powerful. Some fanatical wizards even walk as Abyss believers. They believe that the Abyss is the most powerful in the infinite world."

Temodo glanced at Leon carefully, then continued, "The Abyss is indeed powerful, but it is definitely not as powerful as these Abyss believers say. Otherwise, the Abyss would have ruled the world long ago...

The most obvious point is the limitation...

In our world, both wizards and ordinary humans have a natural resistance to the abyss.

Just like some abyss items, in the eyes of most people, there is nothing special about them at all.

But... resistance also has different strengths..."

As he spoke, Temodo's voice became weaker and weaker...

Leon was wondering, and then he realized something.

They just said it in a tactful way, not saying it directly, but they were just short of pointing at Leon's nose and saying "Leon, your resistance is really poor"...

Thinking back to the statue in my memory, it has traveled thousands of miles, and has been seen and possessed by many people...

But they were all fine, and just thought the statue was a little strange...

And there was the Abyss Contract just now. I just stared at the words for a while and I was actually trapped in it!

If Temodo hadn't woken him up, Leon himself didn't know what would have happened.

The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, and Leon's expression became more solemn.

"Gu..." Temodo swallowed his saliva, "Master Leon... Actually, what I just said may not be correct..."

In fact, Temodo was also secretly wondering in his heart, Leon's mental strength is obviously very high, but why is his resistance so low?

Could it be... that we've had contact before?!

That's not right. If there was contact, then one should have understood and resisted...

Temodo frowned, he couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out!

Noticing Temodo's expression, Leon forced a smile and said, "Professor Temodo, this so-called abyss resistance you just mentioned...should be able to be improved?"

Professor Temodo nodded his head twice quickly. "Yes! And it's very simple!"

Leon thought, it’s very simple?

Before Leon could ask, Temodo took the initiative to say, "There is a very simple and crude method, which is to fight poison with poison."

"Fight fire with fire?"

Leon pondered for a moment, "So, I can improve my resistance to the abyss by continuing to engage with it?"

"That's right! That's it!"

Temodo paused and said firmly: “Master Leon, this… I can assure you!

I once did a similar experiment with a kobold, and a low-intelligence kobold could also be improved!"

Leon: ...

This Temodo has been like this more than once or twice, and it often makes people wonder what he is implying...

but……

Abyss, Kobolds...

Sometimes Leon himself wondered, even though he had never seen any supernatural powers in his previous life, whether it was legends or fantasy characters, he seemed to be able to find their shadows here...

Is there some connection between them?

Seeing that Leon was lost in thought, Temodo rubbed his hands anxiously, "Lord Leon, your loyalty to me..."

Temodo's words interrupted Leon's thoughts. He met Temodo's expectant eyes and slowly shook his head.

Temodo's expectations were instantly shattered, his face filled with disappointment and disbelief...

"Le...Leon...I want to know..."

Leon stretched out his right hand towards Temodo, which made Temodo stunned.

"Professor Temodo, I appreciate your trust in me, but as you can see, I am just a little wizard now and not worthy of your loyalty, so..."

Looking at Leon's outstretched right hand, Temodo's expression was complicated. Although Leon's words were nice, they were just a polite refusal...

"So you don't..."

Leon shook his head, "No, what I mean is... I'm not worthy of your loyalty right now, so... happy cooperation."

Temodo suspected he had misheard. His eyes widened. "Co...cooperate?!"

Leon nodded and said, "Yes, we can cooperate. If we really gain something, we can split it equally."

"No... no no no! Leon... Lord Leon, please don't divide it equally. You can even give it to me without giving it to me!"

Leon naturally would not agree to such a request, because past experience told him that free is the most expensive.

"Professor Temodo, let's be honest. After all, you were the one who got the information."

"Alas, Leon, I know my own strength clearly, so..."

Leon interrupted Temodo, "Professor, information is very important. Without your information, what can we do even if we have this strength?"

Seeing that Temodo was still trying to fight for it, Leon chose to put the matter aside for the time being.

After all, we haven't even started yet...

"Professor Temodo, let's talk about this later."

"Okay..." Temodo nodded, then took out the contract paper again.

"Master Leon, there is still a contract...

How do I get this contract..."

Temodo himself didn't realize that he had completely followed Leon's rhythm, and he was becoming more and more familiar with calling him "Master Leon"...

At first, I was trying to please him, so I called him Lord Leon, but now...

Temodo was convinced!

If I don’t call him Lord Leon… should I still call him Brother Leon?

Glancing at Leon's thick black hair, well... it seems... it's not impossible?
