Chapter 374 373 You, Nyog’Sothep, Have You Become a Matchmaker?
Eri looked at Hakuto before her, her eyes clearly regarding him as the kind of scammer who swindles people out of their money and virtue. The words Hakuto spoke were exactly like those low-level swindlers.
'Uttering such a thing like that, was he really treating me like a fool? Who would agree to something so absurd?'
Facing Eri's gaze, Hakuto simply shrugged, said nothing, and sat down silently to wait. Hakuto believed that sooner or later, Nyog'Sothep would come out to find him.
After all, having trapped him here, it couldn't possibly want to keep him here forever, could it? That was clearly impossible. Sooner or later, it would come to him.
Seeing Hakuto sit down and close his eyes to rest, Eri, on the contrary, became somewhat restless.
Eri was very aware of her current situation. To put it bluntly, in her current state, something unpredictable could happen at any moment.
However, as time passed, Eri gradually calmed down. Her suspicion of Hakuto's words also gradually faded.
If Hakuto had wanted to do something to her, she wouldn't have been able to resist anyway, so there was no need for him to use deception.
But Eri was still somewhat troubled. The thought of Hakuto's method immediately made her feel awful, as this was no joke.
Although she had divorced Kogoro, there were still some lingering ties between them.
But if she were to have a relationship with Hakuto now, Eri wouldn't be able to get past her own psychological barrier.
Hakuto could guess what Eri was thinking, but he didn't force the issue. Moreover, Hakuto felt that Eri was probably a trap set by Nyog'Sothep for him, so for now, Hakuto wanted to be more cautious.
Even if this Kisaki Eri was real, it was hard to guarantee that she wouldn't be used.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, Hakuto felt it was better to keep his lower half in check.
Meanwhile, Eri, who was constantly making various self-adjustments in her mind, had no idea that Hakuto currently had no such intentions.
Even if Eri herself were willing, Hakuto might not necessarily agree.
Hakuto wasn't the type of person who couldn't control himself.
"If, I mean if, could we use some special method, like maybe it doesn't necessarily have to..."
Eri spoke to Hakuto with some difficulty, but Hakuto naturally knew what she was talking about. He glanced at Eri and nodded. "I understand what you're saying, but I think we can wait a little longer for now. I feel that It should be about to lose patience. And Attorney Kisaki, you can rest assured. Although you are beautiful, I have no intention of taking advantage of you."
The corner of Eri's mouth twitched slightly. She didn't even know what to say. She had a strange feeling as if she were being looked down upon by him. Therefore, Eri couldn't help but speak up. "If you don't let It have Its way, what if It keeps refusing to appear? Instead of that, why not let It have Its way and see what It really wants to do?"
Hakuto looked at Eri with a somewhat strange expression, 'Are you serious?'
Hakuto's eyes conveyed this meaning. Eri also felt that she must have lost her mind to say something utterly shameless like that.
"I'm not saying this to criticize you, Attorney Kisaki, but your mental state is a bit off right now. Wait... It's not just you. Even I have unconsciously been guided in that direction."
[How formidable. It unconsciously made me think in that direction. But something's not right. It's not the Black Goat, so why am I thinking this way? Could It also possess the authority of the Black Goat? As the husband of the Black Goat, having the authority of the Black Goat would make sense, but...]
Looking at Eri before him, Hakuto suddenly said, "Perhaps we've both been fooled. It might have deliberately wanted to guide us in this direction. So I think we shouldn't let It have Its way."
The moment Hakuto's voice fell, a line of text appeared in the void. "You can only continue according to my game rules. Once you refuse, you will be trapped here forever. You, the woman beside you, and those children in this place."
"Your actions only make me think that you're not all that impressive. Isn't this a bit underhanded? And I'm not interested in performing for you."
"I don't care about others' opinions, nor am I interested in human reproductive behavior. Your union is the beginning of the game. Just like last time, unless you pass my trial, this place will remain sealed. Time outside will continue to pass, but time here will stop forever, and you will remain here forever."
"Moreover, I can answer you. Your method is completely correct. You have another half hour. After half an hour, the changes on this woman will become irreversible. So, what will you choose?"
The text in the void gradually disappeared. Hakuto didn't speak. "You really got me."
Eri looked at Hakuto. "If we don't do that kind of thing, can we not leave this place?"
"I haven't thought of a way to leave yet."
If there had been a way to leave, Hakuto would have left long ago; he wouldn't have waited until now.
But Hakuto just couldn't figure out how It had managed to trap him here, unable to leave, and force him to have sex with Kisaki Eri?
Did It have a screw loose?
But now, Hakuto had no choice but to follow Nyog'Sothep's rules. Moreover, after half an hour, Eri's Cthulhulization would become irreversible.
"What is your choice?"
Hakuto looked at Eri. A look of embarrassment appeared on Eri's face. Then she asked Hakuto, "Can we use other places?"
Hakuto looked at Eri and shook his head. "I don't know. I've never tried."
"Then let's give it a try."
After saying this, Eri almost wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into. She had actually said something like this to a boy about the same age as her daughter. How embarrassing.
"Alright, let's give it a try."
