Paine's game

"There are usually no outsiders approaching the slums. Your companions disappeared there. You must be foreign adventurers who came to look for the treasure at the foot of Karas Mountain."

Sister Fitousu shook her head.

"It's just you ignorant and fearless outsiders who come here desperately after getting some scraps of information."

"how do I say this?"

"The treasure at the foot of Mount Karas is no longer a secret. That treasure was opened 20 years ago and brought huge trouble to the city of Medina."

Sister Fitousu said in a low tone.

"A foreign magician, with a young man from Medina City, opened the treasure at the foot of Mount Karas, and took out countless jewels and wealth, as well as a powerful oil lamp."

"etc."

The more Paine listened, the more confused he became.

"Sister Fitousu, did you say that the treasure has been opened?"

"Otherwise? Why do you think the jewelry store business in Medina City has declined over the years? Because the young man brought out a large amount of jewelry from the treasure. Fist-sized rubies, sapphires and diamonds were enough to cover a room.

After these jewelry were sold off in large quantities, the jewelry industry in Medina City was completely finished."

Sister Fitousu's words really caught Paine off guard. The treasure has been opened?! Could it be that what he came to was the sequel to Aladdin? No wonder the painting style is so weird.

"You just said that a powerful oil lamp was brought out?"

Paine asked, this matter is related to his main mission, he must prevent the magic lamp from falling into evil hands.

"Yes, it was precisely because of this oil lamp that it brought great disaster to the city of Medina."

Sister Fitousu sighed.

"The city of Medina 20 years ago was far more prosperous than it is now. Most of the residents of Medina now migrated from surrounding cities. 20 years ago, a foreign magician came here. He came to the city to find

A young man, because only this young man could open the treasure at the foot of Kalas Mountain. The magician didn't want the property, what he wanted most was an oil lamp inside. But an accident happened, and the young man used the oil lamp to counterattack the magic.

Master. Because there was a cunning demon god sealed in that oil lamp, and with the power of the demon god, the young man easily killed the foreign magician."

"It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong."

Paine said, "After the outside magician succeeds in his purpose, he will not let him go in order to keep it secret."

"If we only stop here, there is certainly nothing wrong with the young man. The demon in the lamp can only help the person who awakens him to make three wishes, and then he has to leave. The young man is not satisfied with this, he makes two wishes

After making a wish, he chose to offer treasures and a magic lamp to the city lord who was sitting in Medina at the time. Of course, the young man had no good intentions. Although the devil in the oil lamp could help people realize their wishes, he had to follow the rules

A principle of 'equivalent exchange'. To put it simply, it means sacrifice. The more sacrifices you make to the demon god, the more rewards you will get."

"The city lord was deceived and provided a large amount of sacrificial materials to the devil in the oil lamp. He wanted to make a wish to become a king. But he was actually tricked - the young man deceived the city lord. He still had one last wish that he had not made.

The young man summoned a monster that should not have appeared in this world, and then killed the city lord."

"Wait, can I ask, what is that young man's name?" The more Paine listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

"His name is Mustafa." Sister Fitousu said. "Later, he combined with the summoned monster and gave birth to a son named Aladdin."

Paine blinked his eyes. After many outrageous things like time travel, Paine could still handle the amazing unfolding of this plot - wasn't it just that the protagonist's role was robbed by the protagonist's father? This is nothing!

But Sister Fitousu’s next words made Paine almost doubt his life——

"After all, the monster does not belong to this world. After giving birth to the evil seed of Aladdin, the monster left this world. Mustafa was so hit that he became insane. In the end, he even regarded himself as

He killed the monster, so Mustafa sometimes dressed up as a man and sometimes as a woman, acting as both father and mother to raise that evil Aladdin."

"So the so-called ogre is Mustafa?"

"In the beginning, the cannibal was a monster summoned by Mustafa. The summoned monster fed on people and could not eat other food. But after the monster left, it was Mustafa who was the cannibal. He was insane because of his mental disorder.

Sometimes I think of myself as that monster. In fact, the slums now were originally a rich area. Because of the rumors of the cannibal monster, those who were lucky enough to survive left there. Only poor people would choose to live there."

Paine suddenly felt that his imagination was still too small. Who would have thought that this story could have so many elements.

"Then how did Sister Fitusu stop him?"

Sister Fitousu laughed happily. Somehow, Paine felt that there was a hint of coldness in the old woman's laughter.

"Because when Mustafa made three wishes, the oil lamp would leave him forever, and the oil lamp finally fell into my hands. I was just an ordinary nun at the time, with no power and nothing to offer.

Sacrificial sacrifice. You can only pay a certain price and make a wish to make Mustafa forever become a powerless woman. Make a wish to make that bastard who is still in his infancy become an ordinary person. You want to ask me why not

Get rid of them? Because the devil told me that I can't afford that price. If Mustafa and the child die, the monster is likely to return, and I can't take that risk."

Sister Fitusu pointed to the countless oil lamps around her and said.

"But in my opinion, the devil in the oil lamp is the source of all troubles, so I left it here after using up my two wishes."

Paine actually had a lot of respect for this old nun.

"I have met Aladdin. He looks like an ordinary child. He even has some playmates in the city. But they don't seem to know anything."

"Of course they don't know anything, because they are all unruly gangsters. Although Mustafa and Aladdin have lost their power, they still want to eat people. They have become addicted to eating people. Without them,

When outsiders come to fill their bellies, they can only feel wronged by these little gangsters. I acquiesce in all this. There will always be people who sacrifice for the city of Medina."

Paine immediately overturned his previous view. This old nun was ruthless enough.
