Re Zero DMMS 97 (Patreon)

Hearing the other party's response, Kenma stepped on the dragon's head, his consciousness already entering his mind.

He lifted the layers of sealed restrictions on Echidna in his mind and instructed, "Echidna, help me draft a soul contract regarding a master and a mount, with absolutely harsh requirements. If you do this job well, I can let you experience continuous electric shocks lasting up to 50 years."

Hearing this, the battered Echidna raised her head with lightning speed, her pale pupils bursting with a gleam of pleasant surprise.

"Really? That's great. I've long wanted to explore whether a person's consciousness can still remain clear under high-intensity continuous electric shocks. I'll draft it right now."

What a pervert.

Looking at Echidna, who was begging him for punishment, Kenma shivered.

With motivation, Echidna's operational efficiency greatly increased, and in just a few seconds, she used the power of her soul to whip up a new contract.

Kenma took the illusory piece of paper, quickly skimmed through it, and a gratifying smile appeared on his face.

Not bad, it's very much to my liking.

The contents are as follows.

[Mount Soul Contract Signers: Isoyama Kenma, Capella Emerada Lugunica]

[Specific Requirement 1: Capella will forever be loyal to Kenma until the end of life and soul extinction, and cannot violate any commands issued by Kenma.]

[Specific Requirement 2: Capella will unconditionally fulfill all responsibilities as a mount, unable to refuse, unable to resist, unable to escape, sharing weal and woe.]

[Specific Requirement 3: A life-sharing contract will take effect between Kenma and Capella. If Capella dies, Kenma will not have any problems. If Kenma dies, Capella will completely perish at the soul level, losing any chance of reincarnation.]

[Specific Requirement 4: The mount can be freely transferred, and during this period, Capella cannot resist. Capella can sign contracts with multiple people simultaneously.]

After his gaze fell on the fourth clause of the contract, Kenma glanced at the proud-looking Echidna.

She must know what she was writing, right?

Forget it, the first three clauses are not bad.

Kenma left his mind. Before leaving, his boundless mental power erupted, transforming into thunder that smashed straight down.

Echidna's body, tightly bound by chains, could not move, and the thunder instantly submerged her frail body.

"Ohhhhh!"

A strange sound came from the depths of her soul.

Kenma's eyebrows twitched, and he directly chose to block her five senses.

When he opened his eyes again, Capella was still maintaining steady flight in the air, not daring to act presumptuously.

She had deeply understood the ultimate gap between herself and Kenma. If she tried to stir up trouble while the other party closed his eyes, she was afraid she would really be obliterated on the spot.

Kenma ordered the other party to land on the ground, then used his mental power to protect the soul contract that appeared in the palm of his hand, handing it to Capella, who had transformed into human form.

Just glancing at it twice, Capella's scalp went numb.

What the hell kind of mount is this! This doesn't even count as a slave!

The dragon scales on the surface of her body flickered in and out of view, and Capella's face was full of hesitation.

When she initially agreed to sign the mount contract, her original intention was just to survive.

Now, with these four clauses added together, living is no different from being dead.

So be it.

Struggling for a long time, she bit her finger and dropped blood onto the soul contract.

Her experiences over so many years had long shaped Capella's personality. She possessed an almost immortal and indestructible body, but precisely because of this ability, she grew increasingly afraid of true death.

So what if she lost her freedom? At least she was still alive.

Accompanied by a flash of blue light, an extremely firm soul connection was established between the two.

At this moment, the Witch Cult permanently lost the Sin Archbishop of Lust and Kenma gained a mount.

Just at this moment, Kenma suddenly seemed to remember something and patted Capella's head.

"You stay here and don't move around. I'm going to take care of some business."

Finished speaking, Kenma soared into the air and flew in the direction of the residence.

Capella stiffened in place, unable to even move her eyeballs, cursing inwardly.

The effectiveness of this contract is way too strong.

Even Kenma himself hadn't expected how much effort Echidna had put into this soul contract just to be able to experience more diverse punishments.

He had only instructed Capella not to move around casually. Due to the contract's conversion, Capella couldn't even move at all.

Mid-air.

The scenery before his eyes continuously receded. Crimson light flashed in Kenma's eyes, and the flesh greatsword in his hand was already primed and ready.

This time, he was prepared to completely destroy Priscilla's entire residence.

That residence had long been empty. The so-called servants had been quietly disposed of by Capella right from the beginning and replaced with flesh clones.

Now, the only living person left in the entire residence was Al.

Kenma sighed, already sentencing Al to death in his heart.

Having read the original work, he knew deeply just how infatuated Al was with Priscilla.

Leaving aside the original work, just looking at the present moment, in order to save Priscilla, Al had even gone so far as to loop more than 30,000 times to stop him, and in the end even begged to exchange his own life for Priscilla's life.

But now, Priscilla was already dead, and her death was so miserable that it was like fireworks exploding. If Al were to learn of all this, there was no telling what kind of madness he would fall into.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks as a flash of inspiration crossed his mind.

Eh! That's right, why must I kill Al?

Al right now was too weak to break through his defense, making it almost impossible for him to kill him.

But from a plot perspective, Al was an absolute key plot character and an indispensable existence. Being killed by him would 100% yield bonus rewards.

Then could I, like in the original work, create a Divine Dragon version of Al, allowing him to become stronger?

What a good idea!

This was Kenma's thought.

Since the enemy was too weak and was a key plot character, he'd manually buff the enemy.

It's decided, take him to the Pleiades Watchtower right now and get to work.
