My Passive Skills are Invincible! - Chapter 319 - The Unsigned Contract
Mike spoke in a solemn tone. To him, the lives of the elven civilians were not important at all.
Originally, Mike had no intention of killing them, and agreeing to Lady Nikorei’s suggestion was just a passing opportunity.
However, if this could be exchanged for Lady Nikorei’s help, then it would be very cost-effective for Mike.
Mike’s words were very sudden. However, Nikorei did not seem to be surprised at all. She immediately nodded and said, “Yes, of course, I’m willing to help you. First of all, you want to know how this little guy can break through the current boundary. The answer is very simple. You just need to give him some valuable treasures.
“Valuable things here don’t refer to things like gold coins, but items with powerful strength or special effects.”
Hearing this, Mike was silent for a moment and asked, “For example… high-quality equipment?”
“You can think of it that way.”

Nikorei smiled slightly and continued, “Also, if you want me to testify for you, there’s no problem. It’s not difficult to pry into a scene from 35 years ago. It’s just a little exhausting for me.”
Until now, Mike had not said anything.
Although he was already mentally prepared and could anticipate Lady Nikorei to know about his requests, when Lady Nikorei actually brought it up, Mike could not help but wonder in awe.
A psychic was really too powerful.
Other than not showing any powerful combat strength, they were like gods.
However, although he was amazed in his heart, he did not show any emotion on his face. He still waited quietly, waiting for Lady Nikorei to give him the other information he wanted.
Nikorei quietly watched the human adventurer in front of her. She paused and continued, “If you want to know something else, I can tell you. For example, why did those weapons you lost come back, but the bud didn’t disappear from your body. For example, why did you appear in the past and return to the present. For example-”
“-I don’t want to hear this.”
Mike shook his head and calmly interrupted Lady Nikorei.
“You know what I want to ask.”
“…”
Nikorei fell silent. Of course, she knew what the young man in front of her wanted to ask, but in the end, she remained silent.
The two of them stared at each other in silence for a long time.
It was so long that Egg and Stone could hardly sit still.
Finally, Mike took the initiative to ask, “Is this matter really that difficult to answer?”
Nikorei was silent for a moment before replying, “I feel that what I promised you before is enough to be equivalent to your promise.”
Mike did not deny it. He could clearly feel that the elderly elf lady in front of him had no ill intentions toward him.
She was even full of goodwill.
He did not want to use coercion to force her to do or say anything, and the other party had indeed given him enough.
Not only did she tell him how to improve Egg, she also promised to help him complete the task entrusted to him by the bartender.
These alone were worth the promise of not taking the initiative to harm the elven civilians.
Looking into Lady Nikorei’s eyes, Mike nodded solemnly before replying.
“You’re right. You’ve helped me enough. I’ll keep my promise… By the way, don’t you need to make a contract with me, something like…”
“Something like the one you signed with that child, Ulysses?”
“…”
“That kind of thing isn’t necessary. On one hand, it’s because you adventurers won’t suffer too much of a loss even if you break the contract. After all, you don’t belong to this world. On the other hand, it’s because I trust you. I believe that you won’t break your promise.”
Mike fell silent again. After a moment of contemplation, he finally nodded.
“Thank you.”
“Then… shall we go to the City of Light now?”
Mike stood up from the chair. He planned to use the teleportation method to bring Lady Nikorei directly to the City of Light and finish the mission quickly.
However, Nikorei shook her head and placed her hand onto Mike.
“Young man, don’t be too impatient. Although I’ve said that it’s not difficult for me to pry into the scenes from 35 years ago, it’s just a little exhausting.
“However, I still need to make some preparations. This is not as simple as looking at the scenes from three hours ago. I require three days. Come and find me here again in three days.”
Mike was slightly stunned when he heard that. He had never thought that a psychic would need to make preparations to check on the past.
He nodded and said, “I wasn’t being very thorough. I’m sorry.”
After saying that, he was silent for a moment as if he was preparing to say something else. However, Lady Nikorei smiled and took the initiative to speak before Mike.
“Don’t overthink it. An adventurer can not become a psychic.”
“… Okay.”
The hesitance in Mike’s heart was once again known by Lady Nikorei. Although Mike did not know how she did it, he had to admit that this ability was really impressive.
He was about to reach level 60. If he could bring this ability into reality, then his chances of surviving in the future would be greatly increased.
However, since Lady Nikorei had already said so, Mike dismissed the idea.
He bowed slightly. She was one of the few people that Mike respected in the second world.
After he bowed, he left the wooden house with his two buddies using the Space Travel Bracelet.
He had a lot of things to do now, and it was not the time to relax.
The next moment, Mike appeared in Sarco City. To be more precise, he appeared in front of his shop in Sarco City.
Neither the players nor the NPCs paid much attention to Mike’s sudden appearance. After all, players appeared suddenly when they were online. No one had expected Mike to teleport here from the elves’ city.
After seeing Mike, a few guards whispered to each other, then carefully approached him and said, “Excuse me… Are you Castellan?”
Mike was slightly stunned. Although it had only been a short time in this world, Mike had experienced too much in such a little time. So much that he almost forgot that he was Castellan of Sarco City.
Mike nodded and said, “It’s me.”
Hearing this answer, the guards immediately bowed and said, “Castellan, it seems that Ella Jasmine has been looking for you. She seems to have something to report to you…”
“There’s no need to report to me. She can arrange everything directly.”
After saying that, Mike walked straight into the shop in front of him. The few guards that were left behind looked at each other.
Although the others left most of the matters to the general manager or other subordinates to handle. This was the first time they had heard a straightforward answer.
