Chapter 2593
My Substitute CEO Bride
However, he could not figure out who that was, so he asked, "Who are you?"
"I am you."
Fogort was a little confused and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"What's your name?"
"Fogort."
"No, that's not what I asked. What's your real name."
"My real name? Aubrey..."
"Okay, I understand now."
"Understand? Understand what?"
"Nothing..." the man said and held out his hand. "Child, do you want this power?"
Fogort shook his head.
The man asked with curiosity, "Why?"
Fogort sighed and replied, "What happens after I get the power? What can I do?"
"Just do whatever you want."
"Can I still sleep ten hours every day? Can I still eat delicious meals?"
"Yes, you can. You can do whatever you want."
"I want it... Yes, I want it..." Fogort muttered as he walked up to the man.
The soul showed an evil smile, saying, "Yes, that's it, kid. Come on, accept this power."
Just when Fogort's hand was about to touch the soul, he threw the soul over his shoulder and knocked it down.
"Haha! As expected of my inner world, I can indeed hit you!"
The soul became a little annoyed. "What do you mean by this? I'm one of the most powerful forces in the world. Aren't you even the slightest bit tempted?" "Tempted? Sorry, there really isn't anything that would tempt me right now. I'm here just because of Father Hay's mission."
Fogort plopped himself on the ground, closed his eyes, and meditated. He said, "Father Hay is kind to me, and I want to repay him. It doesn't matter even if he has an agenda. Father Hay's objective is for me to inherit your power. I'll find a way to do so, but I won't be controlled by you."
The soul turned into the Chaos Talisman's original form and shouted, "It's useless! I have already inherited the remnants of the human emperor's soul and
resentment. If you want to inherit me, you must inherit this resentment too! Come on, be my puppet."
"Inherit that resentment?" Fogort still had his eyes closed as he replied, "Father Hay only asked me to inherit the power. As for the rest, you should keep it for yourself."
"No way! Are you taking it for granted? Do you think I'm easily fooled?" Fogort was still calm.
The Chaos Talisman became even more anxious as it said, "You bastard! What on earth are you doing?!"
"Didn't you say that I have to inherit the resentment? In that case, I don't plan to talk to you anymore."
"Hmph, how self-righteous! I'm one of the six ancient artifacts. Do you really think you can shake me?"
"I don't intend to shake you."
"Then, what are you doing?!"
"I'm looking for something."
"Looking for something?"
"It doesn't hurt to tell you now. I'm looking for the origin of your strength. I can hear your words and communicate with you, but... my consciousness is already feeling the changes in my body."
After going into a meditative state, Fogort could feel every change in his body at every second. Some time later, he opened his eyes.
"Found it!"
The Chaos Talisman felt like it was facing a formidable enemy. "You bastard! What are you doing?!"
