Chapter 2407: We cannot truly trust anyone
Mirena finally nodded. After a brief moment of calculation, she gave a number.
"We can give you four thousand Prima Deities and forty-nine Arch Deities."
Cain’s incarnation remained completely stoic, betraying nothing on the surface. Yet deep within his heart, desire and exhilaration burned fiercely. Such a massive number of sacrifices meant an enormous amount of Ancestor Drops—enough to allow him to take a tremendous step forward in the creation of his new body.
However, Mirena was not finished.
Her voice grew colder, carrying a chilling authority that caused the air itself to seem to freeze.
"Understand this," she said. "With these sacrifices come responsibilities. If you do not show enough power during the battles to come, we will demand repayment."
Cain stared at the woman for a moment before performing a solemn nod. Paradise was not a place where he could afford carelessness. After all, she had just handed him sacrifices equal to nearly a quarter of the warriors of the Nine Empyrean Suns Alliance, as if they were nothing but trash.
"I will show my full power in the future battles," Cain replied calmly. "I will take the lives of many warriors of the Kalous Kingdom. You do not need to worry about that."
Mirena nodded, seemingly satisfied. She then waved her hand, sending a medallion flying toward the blood humanoid.
"That medallion will allow us to communicate with each other," she said. "Without the risk of anyone spying on us."
Her tone then turned more solemn.
"According to our intelligence, the Kalous Kingdom will make a move against you in two months. The techniques will arrive next week. The captives will arrive within a month, along with our forces."
