I, Rick, the strongest human

Indeed, even using magical intervention seems to violate the tenth article of the covenant——

[[-]] It is forbidden to use magic to interfere with the other party without the other party's consent.

Chapter 150 Three Won't Your Conscience Hurt?

But... what counts as "consent"?

For magic, of course, it doesn't mean that you agree to accept the other party's consent by saying "yes" verbally.

Otherwise, if you are seriously injured and dying, and then someone wants to throw you a healing spell, but you can't speak, and then the magic fails... Well, then you're just GG.

is it possible?

Of course, Rick would not formulate such a covenant with huge bugs. Before the battle with the God of War, he had repeatedly revised the formulation of the covenant in his mind countless times.

So, in fact, here, the so-called consent refers to the instinctive tendency of the "body" to "accept" or "reject".

No matter what kind of creature it is, it has the instinct to seek good luck and avoid evil.

In other words, instinctively accept magic that is "good for you" and reject magic that is "bad for you".

If you think that "the magic is beneficial to you", it will be effective, otherwise it will be invalid.

...Then, here comes the problem, if it is implied magic, then, without a doubt, it is "bad for oneself" magic.

However, what if this hinting magic is "hinting that the other party will forget all the unpleasant things about this game"?

If it is a race like the elves who can perceive magic, it is absolutely unacceptable intellectually, but as a human species without magic perception, the acceptance of magic can only be done by the body without knowing it. judge.

——Apparently, "forgetting the unpleasantness about the game" is an acceptable level for anyone's subconscious mind.

But for the person who casts magic, he remembers the content of the game, but the opponent forgets it because of magic...

For example, in a best-of-three game, you still remember the opponent's routine in the last game, but the opponent didn't know that he had used it because he forgot it, and then rehearsed it again... In this case, obviously, it is difficult for you to win again , and failure is not a pleasant experience for anyone, no one would want to fail, so about this part of the memory, when the hint magic is used, the body will subconsciously forget the memory about the game again——

Of course, here is just a chestnut, and there are actually not few magics that can achieve similar effects.

They all take advantage of the weakness of the human race that cannot perceive magic. Other races judge magic by their own "judgment", but the human race that cannot perceive it can only rely on the "instinct" of the body——

In this way, it would be effortless for the vampires to win the game against the human species.

... Then, this time, the purpose of the other party going there is probably not to investigate intelligence, because for Vera who has mastered this big killer, the human species is no longer threatening, but they can't Take the lead in launching a game against the human species, otherwise once you win, you will be alerted by other races——

Although the current vampires are in a difficult situation, this also prevents them from being noticed by any race. There are even many races who think that sooner or later, the vampires will be unable to perform large-scale damage due to the reappearance of the sun and the inability to take the initiative to damage. Due to various unfavorable conditions such as blood-sucking and lack of a clear territorial resident, they perished.

In reality, however, vampires have never worried about survival.

Even now, it is in the form of "trading", taking advantage of the lack of manpower and resources of the human species, to use this to conduct transactions with some businessmen in the human species.

Although this kind of transaction cannot go on for a long time, it is more than enough to solve the blood problem in the short term.

"I'm right...Vera...no...Miss Avella? You vampires really played a big game!"

After telling these analyzes one by one, under Rick's calm gaze, Elvira's face suddenly turned extremely pale.

"..."

This guy... Damn... Wait, wait! !

"I almost forgot... You are not only the only god but also a human species... When did you stare at us?"

Vera smiled wryly, looking a little annoyed, but now, even concealing it is meaningless.

"It's not important, is it?"

"That's also..."

Even if Vera was killed, she would never have thought that the reason why she would be targeted was purely because of her loli appearance——

Originally, she couldn't help running over just because she was cute, but when she was lying, Rick instinctively sensed something was wrong, so he used the star cup to observe the recent situation of human species and vampire species, and then suddenly Just followed the clues and discovered the conspiracy of the blood-sucking species.

"Huh... But even so, I haven't violated the Twelve Covenants, have I?"

Speaking of this, the corners of Vera's mouth curled up, looking very proud.

"Unless you amend the covenant on the spot, otherwise, hehe... you human race won't be my opponent~?"

"Oh, thank you for reminding me, I will add now that vampires are forbidden to use magic on humans."

Rick nodded expressionlessly, looking as if he really wanted to do it.

"Hey!!! Are you serious! How can someone modify the covenant so casually!!!"

Vera looked a little crazy and said angrily.

"And as the only god, he interferes with the games of other races all day long... and it's a change of direction that makes the game even more unbalanced... won't your conscience hurt?"

"I'm sorry, don't waste your time talking, my conscience will not hurt, but it will also be flattering."

"..."

"Also, don't you think unbalanced games are sometimes more interesting? For example, I recently thought of a game called The Sixth Personality..."

"...Who would play such a game where both sides are not equal, bastard!"

Vera curled her lips and said with some disdain.

"Oh? Really? How about we take a gamble? If this game can become popular among the major races on this planet within a month, then I won't show any favoritism to any other race... How about it?"

"...Are you serious?"

Vera was a little skeptical, and rationally told her that the handle was safe, but her intuition was persuading her to give up.

Although it is unrealistic no matter how you look at it,... In a sense, life is a game of inequality. Therefore, sometimes the pursuit of "balance in inequality" may be more important than "imbalance in equality". interesting...

Then, this bet becomes [-]-[-]... If you add the opponent's identity as the only god... your chances of winning will be even smaller!

"Forget it, I'm not interested in betting with the only god, who knows if you will use any means to cheat."

In the end, Vera shook her head and did not agree to the bet hastily.

"Well~ It's fine if you don't agree, anyway, I haven't had time to perfect this game yet."

"..."

Chapter 150 Four Bet everything on you, come and challenge me!

"You...!" Vera said with gritted teeth. "Sure enough, you're just kidding me, right?"

"Well, if you want to think that way, I can't help it."

Rick spread his hands and spoke casually.

"cut……"

Vera grumbled dissatisfiedly, then pushed the silver-haired boy in front of her.

"Get out of the way, I'm going home to sleep." Vera pointed to the scorching sun in the sky, and said, "It's already morning, and we vampires also need to rest."

"Oh."

Rick nodded, indicating that he understood, but his body stood motionless, blocking in front of the opponent, without any intention of getting out of the way.

"...Qi."

Seeing this scene, Vera clicked her tongue in displeasure, but she didn't think much about it, she just thought that the other party was unwilling to give way. After all, the other party was the only god, and as gods... they should all be high-ranking guys, right?Maybe it's because of the shit spirit in me that I found myself...

"Then I go this way to the head office, shall I?"

Vera whispered to herself while walking away from Rick far away.

However, before she could take a few steps, Rick's figure flickered and stopped in front of the girl again like a ghost.

"……what do you mean?"

"It's not interesting, I just think there are some things we need to talk about in depth."

Rick shook his head and said very calmly.

"Sorry, I just want to go home and have a good sleep right now, and I don't want to talk about anything."

Vera also refused very decisively.

Who knows if this guy is talking again?

"That's not up to you."

While saying this, Rick pressed Vera's shoulders.

It seemed that she didn't use much force, but Vera found that her body seemed to be imprisoned, unable to move at all.

"...You guys, are you too unreasonable? I haven't committed any crimes... And if you do this, you have completely violated the first article of the Twelve Covenants?!"

Her shoulders were tightly suppressed, and the anger in Vera's eyes seemed to turn into substance, staring at the man in front of her.

"As a rule-maker, end up being the first to break the rules?"

"Well……"

Being questioned like this, even Rick seemed troubled.

However, what troubled him was not as the girl imagined——

"You got two questions wrong—"

Rick sighed softly, then repeated the content of the Twelve Covenants to the blue-haired loli in front of him.

"First of all... [[-]] All killing, war and plundering are forbidden in this world... You are talking about this one, right?"

"I didn't 'attack' you... I just didn't let you leave, isn't that against the rules?"

"...tsk..."

That's really cunning... Did this guy think of such a day when he made the rules?

"The second point is... what is Rule No. 11... Do you remember?"

"No. 11...?" Vera blinked her eyes and said, "I remember it as a regulation without any real meaning..."

As she said that, the girl's face froze suddenly, and then suddenly became extremely pale.

bad, bad...

"[Eleventh] is announced in the name of the winner, and the above ten rules are permanently established for you."

Rick let go of the hands that were pressing on the opponent's shoulders, spread his arms, and said with a light smile.

"Could it be..."

In the half-bitter and half-unwilling look of the other party, Rick showed an extremely wanton smile on his face.

"Yes, you should have noticed by now? These rules are to create a better environment to restrain you—"

However, the object of the constraint does not include himself.

It was knowing this that Vera realized——

"From the very beginning, there was no possibility of the plan being realized."

"Although I don't understand, what other strategies do you have for other races... But I think, since your goal is not just one race, then it shouldn't just be to solve the blood problem, right?"

This is an obvious problem. If you just want to solve the blood-sucking problem, then as long as you can get any race piece of other races, you can completely solve this problem.

"So, since the goal is to collect more race pieces... That is to say, what purpose do you have? It is the goal that must be collected by a sufficient number of race pieces."

"And there is only one option that requires more than a plurality of race pieces—"

That is, to challenge the throne of the only God.

"..."

"Even I have to admit that this is really a perfect battle—"

"Except for the fact that it's impossible to come true."

"...It's really, overbearing."

"However, in fact, you are just a coward, right? You don't dare to accept other people's challenges..."

"Ok?"

Feeling the calm eyes of the other party looking at her, Vera felt a little guilty in her heart, but she still said very forcefully: "What, what's the matter, am I wrong? Even if we have collected the race pieces of all races , you don’t dare to accept the challenge, right! Is that so!”

"Is it the aggressive method? Although it is useless to me, but there is one thing I have to make clear——"
