"You want to come out?" Soya asked with a smile, his tone sounding like he was concerned about Quitela, but the greed in his eyes was unmistakable.
"State your conditions." Quitela snorted, trying his best to keep his tone calm, but his clenched fists betrayed his tension.
"Give me 100,000 points of Cosmic Essence, and I'll let you out." Soya replied, his tone relaxed, as if he was talking about some trivial little matter.
Quitela: "..."
Quitela's face instantly turned green, as if painted with a layer of green pigment, his eyes wide and round, his mouth slightly open.
You really dare to ask.
That guy Champa only wanted 10,000 points of Cosmic Essence.
You open your mouth and ask for 100,000 points.
This is simply asking for the sky!
"Negative emotional value from Quitela +1006!"
Quitela rolled his eyes, simply too lazy to pay attention to Soya anymore, turning his head to the side with an "I don't care what you do" expression.
"100,000 points isn't much, right?" Soya pressed, leaning in a little closer, his tone carrying a hint of persuasion.
"What do you think?" Quitela said angrily, his voice suddenly rising, "If I provide you with 100,000 points of Cosmic Essence, all aspects of our universe's development would probably stagnate, or even regress, so don't even think about it!"
"Uh, forget it then, you just stay stuck there." Soya shook his head with a disappointed look, turning as if to leave, as if he had truly lost interest in Quitela.
Quitela immediately panicked, cursing Soya in his heart, this bastard.
Don't leave me stuck here.
How embarrassing is it for me to be stuck here?
And with no freedom of movement at all, like a prisoner.
"50,000 points! I can provide you with 50,000 points, you get me out!" Quitela said urgently, his tone carrying a hint of compromise, this was already his limit.
"Oh?" Soya looked at Quitela with a beaming smile, a cunning light flickering in his eyes, as if calculating something.
"Boss, you can't let him go!" Raditz said with some concern, stepping forward, lowering his voice, "Won't he come after us once he's out? We can't beat him!"
"Hmm, you're right." Soya nodded, agreeing with Raditz's words, the light in his eyes also receding a bit.
"You can rest assured, as long as you let me go, I'll leave immediately, absolutely won't cause you any trouble!" Quitela promised, his tone sincere, but a flash of fierceness quickly passed through his eyes.
Don't you know that Gods of Destruction are famous for not keeping their word?
Just wait until you let me out, then I'll show you.
I'll pay you back double for the torment you just put me through! Let you know the power of a God of Destruction!
"50,000 points is too little, a total of 100,000 points are needed to condense a set of Supreme Kai specific tools." Soya shook his head, his face immediately losing interest, his tone also turning cold.
Quitela: "..."
"Negative emotional value from Quitela +1000!"
You really dare to ask!
Not willing to compromise at all!
"No, 100,000 points is too much! I really can't come up with that much." Quitela said in a deep voice, angrily grinding his teeth in secret, his teeth chattering.
"Then there's nothing to talk about!" Soya snorted, turning his back to Quitela, not wanting to deal with him anymore.
"How about this?" Quitela rolled his eyes, as if thinking of a good idea, suggesting, "I'll provide 50,000 points of Cosmic Essence, the remaining 50,000 I'll owe you, I'll pay you back within a year at most."
Soya looked at Quitela seriously, as if considering his proposal, stroked his chin, pondering in his heart.
Thinking that asking Quitela to provide 100,000 points of Cosmic Essence is indeed not very appropriate.
It might even cause the entire Fourth Universe to regress.
It seems 50,000 points is already his limit.
"First provide 50,000 points of Cosmic Essence." Soya grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"You're sure that if I provide 50,000 points of Cosmic Essence, you'll let me go?" Quitela inquired uneasily, his eyes fixed tightly on Soya, afraid he might pull another trick.
"Of course, I always keep my word." Soya nodded, patting his chest in assurance, indicating no problem.
"Good, I believe you." Quitela said, immediately condensing two brilliant balls of flame in his hands, the flames even more dazzling than what Champa gave before, containing even more refined energy.
One of these two balls of flame was as big as a soccer ball, emitting a warm and powerful aura.
Together, they were exactly 50,000 points.
Soya gleefully took the 50,000 points of Cosmic Essence, gently touching the light balls with his fingers, feeling the energy contained within, then directly stuffed them into his system space, his movements fluid.
"I've already given you the Cosmic Essence, according to the agreement, can you let me go now?" Quitela was already impatient, his body trembling slightly, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"Of course no problem, but not now." Soya chuckled, a sly smile appearing on his face, his tone carrying a hint of teasing.
"You... what did you say? What do you mean? Don't go too far!" Quitela felt everything was not right, as if he had been played, glaring at Soya with rage, his pupils filled with bloodshot veins, his voice full of anger and resentment.
"I said I would let you go, I didn't say it was now." Soya revealed a mouthful of white teeth, his smile growing even brighter, as if teasing Quitela was a very fun thing.
Quitela trembled with anger all over, his face as ugly as it could be, like the sky before a storm, gloomy enough to drip water.
But under the eaves, one has to bow.
Quitela took a deep breath, trying hard to calm his emotions.
"Then when will you let me go?" Quitela said angrily, his voice hoarse with anger.
"Don't worry, give me the remaining 50,000 points, and I'll let you leave." Soya grinned, his tone relaxed.
Quitela: "..."
"Negative emotional value from Quitela +1008!"
"Negative emotional value from Quitela..."
At this moment, Quitela's negative emotional value was already off the charts, lines of numbers crazily jumping.
I, a dignified God of Destruction, was actually played by this human who just became a Supreme Kai.
You just wait!
Someday I'll make you regret this, let you know the consequences of messing with a God of Destruction!
After a bout of gnashing his teeth, Quitela felt like providing the remaining 50,000 points to Soya, as long as he could leave this damned place.
But then Quitela reconsidered, thinking that if he really provided the remaining 50,000 points to Soya, it might all be for nothing again.
This kid definitely won't let me leave easily, he's an untrustworthy guy!
This won't do!
Looks like I need to think of another way to leave this place.
Relying on this kid to let me go voluntarily, the possibility probably isn't great.
Quitela simply stopped talking, closing his eyes to rest there, as if gathering strength, or as if thinking of an escape plan.
