Chapter 386 Subjective Value, II

"How can you prove that the Value you'll show is for the answer that I seek?"

"Just take my word for it."

"Ha! And why would I?"

"Oh..." A screen had appeared in front of Mark. "Didn't expect that."

"How can you prove that-" The Undead Lich was interrupted before it could repeat its question.

"System, show him."

Its face was nothing more than bones. Lacking muscles, no expression could be seen or read. nOvelbIn

But Mark could tell that the Undead Lich was stunned.

"That doesn't mean anything."

"WHAT DO YOU IT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING??" Mark shouted as the Undead Lich nonchalantly swayed its hand.

"I have no idea what kind of Information you thought about weighing. No idea how many pieces of information you grouped together."

"Ha." Mark chuckled. "Is there even a number that would justify a number like that?"

The Undead Lich remained silent for a couple of seconds.

"No... I can't." It admitted.

"See? Worth a lot, huh?"

[The Information has been Valued at 4.750.000 Gold Coins.]

"How come?"

"So that's a high number in general, huh?"

"There are very little things that cost this much or more."

"Good to know. Guess we should work on that Contract again, huh? Your 25.000 don't seem as-"

"The Contract has already been signed. Plus, I already fulfilled my part."

"The Value justifies it, I would say. The difference in Value. I didn't realize that my Information was that much more valuable, since I thought that I would get more out of you."

"The Contract changed. I'm not interested in it. I already have a good idea of how it works."

"Is that so?"

"Yes. I truly can't wait..." The white-scaled Monster felt a shiver go down its spine as the Undead Lich talked. "To dissect you."

"Sure, whatever."

"You don't mind it, do you?"

"I'll be eating everything there is in here." Mark said as he looked around. "From the Ghouls to the Gems. Drinking everything too. Poisons, Blood... Everything you worked on will disappear and be swallowed."

"That would be a shame."

"Would it now?"

"I'd rather leave these for someone who would study them, perhaps build up on my research."

"Can't do that. I'm not a very smart one, you see. I'm more of a glutton than an academic."

"Academic, huh? You certainly say interesting things. Devouring, huh? No waste... Devouring things can help you heal, right?"

Mark didn't answer.

"No, it can even help you change your Form." The white-scaled Monster's eye twitched, and the Undead Lich knew. "Huh? I was right? Interesting. Very interesting, white-scaled Monster. That's definitely a sacrifice, if you don't get to do that."

"Ahh..." Mark sighed.

"Let's get to it then. The Information I want."

"Sure. It's pretty simple really..."

Mark felt his throat dry up immediately.

It wasn't an easy thing to say.

"I died, and I was Reborn inside this body." Especially because he hadn't told anyone. "I was..." Because he hadn't told her. "Reborn As An Evolving Monster."

"Born of Necromancy, huh? But that doesn't justify it."

"Then it's even simpler. I was born, lived and died..."

The words came easily. Perhaps because he wanted to share them. Because he felt he should have shared them long ago.

"In another World."

"Huh?"

"I come from another World."
