"Three years, then."
Gu Xi stared at Qiutero for a long while before finally agreeing.
"If this works out, you'll get your share of the benefits."
"I want enhancement materials for a Red Equipment path."
Qiutero said it lightly, but it shook Gu Xi badly.
"You have Red Equipment?"
Gu Xi's eyes locked onto Qiutero at once.
"No. I was simply born with a Red Equipment path—Fate-system divination type. I needed to tell you that in advance, so there won't be bad blood between us later."
Gu Xi froze for a moment before he understood what Qiutero meant.
At the same time, he also understood where Qiutero's Red Equipment path had come from.
"I knew a Red Task wouldn't just give an ordinary Contract Undead. Otherwise, why call it a Red Task? Enhancement materials for a Fate-system divination-type Red Equipment path, right? If I find any, I'll keep an eye out for you."
Gu Xi thought for a moment, but in the end, he still did not say he would give Qiutero the Clover Ring or the Life-Taking Bow.
Qiutero had only just joined Gu Xi's command, and Gu Xi was not familiar with him yet. Even if Gu Xi had Red Equipment on hand, there was no reason to give it to Qiutero first.
Besides, when Gu Xi thought of the Clover Ring, he knew he would never choose to let an undead use that thing.
If that thing really had been given to one of his Contract Undead, that bastard would not have used the Clover Ring to influence Gu Xi himself.
Qiutero did not say anything more about Gu Xi's reaction. He only nodded, then sat down to one side.
Because of this matter, the Contract Undead under Gu Xi no longer had any interest in gossiping
