Chapter 246: Eye Exchange

The girl, or rather the woman who looked like a magical girl, squinted at the mirror, seeming somewhat unaccustomed to it.

But compared to the sharp, eagle-like long eyes she had before, these somewhat masculine eyes actually appeared softer, rounder, and more girlish.

Paired with her consistently heroic and brisk temperament, the originally overly sharp halberd now seemed like that of a tomboy from the neighborhood.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. If Little Red Feather goes out like this, she might be much more popular than before."

Her contracted beast, the senior "Ronia," instead found it amusing to tease her own contractor.

"Shut up, blind man." Red Feather Arrow was very displeased, speaking as if she lacked any appeal to men.

Well, that was the truth, which made people even angrier.

Red Feather Arrow's appearance was not bad; it was just that no man looked into those eyes without running away on the spot, which already counted as courage.

"It's not that bad. Although these eyes can only see three hundred meters outside this house, they are not completely blind."

The prosthetic eye made by Vitoria was not wasted; that golden eyeball was ultimately used on the contracted beast.

It seemed that for this "contracted beast gift," Rosalind had not taken things too far.

"Can only see three hundred meters? What else is that but a blind person?"

"Uh, come to think of it, are your eyes' performance better than mine?"

"Probably about twice as strong as yours, though not even a fraction of what they were before, but the point isn't that; they can provide some things I couldn't see before."

Touching the pale golden eyes, Red Feather Arrow pondered thoughtfully.

These were "Black Dragon Eyes," the extra eyes of Li En; having dual thoughts did not mean he could fully control the sensory information of multiple physical bodies.

These overloaded visual and sensory informations would be a burden on the body and brain; previously, the extra sensory system had always been in a locked state.

These were the highest-grade (potential) Black Dragon Eyes, possessing not only the visual motion capture, lie-indication, and illusion-piercing traits that "Dragon Eyes" should have.

As the notorious old hard coin among dragon kinds, the Black Dragon's underwater vision and dark vision were maxed out, even possessing shadow vision to see through the Shadow Plane.

Through these eyes, Red Feather Arrow felt a vision she hadn't had before, naturally feeling some surprise and hesitation, but this did not mean she had recovered her strength.

"How much combat power do you still have?"

"After adapting to these eyes, thirty to fifty percent... at most fifty percent, and many targeted abilities cannot be used. The upper limit in actual combat might be less than thirty percent of before."

Such an answer was within expectations; Li En sighed, yet was already very satisfied.

No matter how high-quality the accessory's performance is, it is always just one link, one component in another set of "machinery," providing a portion of the functionality needed for the overall mechanism.

The Black Dragon Eye was the ambush eye of the old hard coin Black Dragon, even possessing the ambush trait of "not emitting or reflecting light in darkness," whereas the Eagle Eye's target was to see farther, with completely different functional tendencies.

As the core accessory of the eagle, the "Eagle Eye" had a series of abilities paired with it.

Having three to five percent combat power already exceeded expectations; it was just that losing the abilities targeting the "Owl" seemed only natural.

"Is this His design?"

Looking at the contract paper on the table, Red Feather Arrow's tone carried more respect and disbelief.

In their view, this "Magic Pact" was already a subversive "invention" no worse than the Magical Girl Contract.

Especially for people like them, it might hold additional value.

The Snake returns every few years, yet did not possess Li En's body, so naturally could not leave behind his inheritance.

However, merely modifying the original Magical Girl Contract to create the "Masked Dragon Knight (Warlock/Warlock Branch)" was already quite valuable.

He was obviously a master of manipulating contracts; the "Snake's Magic Pact" he left behind could be regarded as an entirely new branch of Warlocks.

In fact, the original Magical Girl Contract was the "Warlock Magic Pact" modified by the Snake.

A Magic Pact is, in the end, a "transaction," except the Party A and Party B are not equal.

The dominant Party A (Sect Master) grants power but often demands everything, essentially issuing super usury loans; the Magical Girl Contract utilized this "transaction" to let both parties trade "humanity" and "beastliness," allowing both sides to reach a certain degree of balance.

"What is your situation?" As the "exploited," Red Feather Arrow instead cared about Li En's state.

In the end, a Magic Pact is a transaction, an exchange; Li En gave her flesh and gave her eyes, so she could naturally only give back more, and as a "beast," any gift is a poison of life.
