"You don't have to be on guard. I'm pretty harmless, you know?" Jin Rou crossed his legs and smirked. The other party was in a very alert state, as if a very little move would make him go all out.
He wasn't afraid of the Zodiac, though. If he was, he wouldn't dare come here with only Sylvianna in tow.
Jin Rou shrugged his shoulders and continued, "As you can see, I am a very powerful entity that the likes of you will be threatened. It's the same with the others. I can help you exact revenge to those Zodiacs who killed your twin."
Pisces smiled sarcastically and said, "Those devils aren't easy to deal with. If it is, I could have done myself already."
"That's why I'm offering you a deal." Jin Rou clapped his hand, "I will assist you kill them, and that's it."
"And you think the Administrators will like that?" Pisces snook his head, "Leave. I'm not interested."
Pisces had a point. Once a few to several Zodiacs were killed, it would tilt the balance severely to the other side. Once it happened, the Possibility of Prospect would react harshly and it wouldn't be nice for everyone.
Thus, the Admins would do everything in their power to stop this break of balance. With their strength, everything was possible as long as the prospect aligned with them.

"Since you are going to receive my help, of course I have to get something in return too." Jin Rou smirked, "But you won't lose out in the deal, I'm telling you."
Pisces took a deep breath and asked, "What's in it for you, then?"
"I want you to be my sword and kill a certain Administrator." Jin Rou said with a smile, "With your abilities, it's not entirely impossible to kill him."
Pisces dazed for a moment before refuting, "Aren't you asking too much?"
He knew who Jin Rou was talking about. Without a doubt, there's only one Administrator that could instill wariness and fear to other Zodiacs. With his strength, it's impossible to defeat him, much less slay the person. After all, that admin was almost invincible in the Dark Train.
"I'm not. Out of all possible Zodiacs I can reach out, I choose you. Why is that?" Jin Rou asked.
"Because you think you can use me the easiest." It's not a question, it's a statement from Pisces. It's not that he was belittling himself. It was just that the 'to give' was more than he could do.
"Wrong." Jin Rou smirked, "I'm not going to waste my time just to use a useless person. There are so many powerful Zodiacs out there willing to be my sword yet I chose you."
Jin Rou stood up and resumed, "Its because you are the best in terms of bypassing the possibility."
"What do you mean?" Pisces didn't expect these words and was almost caught off guard.
"After all the years of being imprisoned here, you must now know how to avoid the eyes of possibility and use your full power without restriction." Jin Rou explained, "However, you are keeping it a secret because you are not confident in slaying that person."
"... How do you know all this?" This time, Pisces couldn't maintain his composure and his killing intent burst out. His eminence was over flowing, ready for a battle.
"Because nothing can escape my eyes. Not even the admins can, much less you." Jin Rou had this confident smile on his face which never disappeared.
Pisces retrieved his intent after a short time. He was aware that even if he went all out, he would just be wasting his life here. Rather than that, "Then how can I be of service to you?"
Jin Rou had a satisfied smile after hearing this, "Simple. You just have to attack Taurus. But before that, use this."
He handed over a bead with a small star inside. Surrounding the star was a chaos smoke.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPisces accepted the bead and observed it with suspicions. After a while, his eyes widened as he murmured, "Impossible! This..."
If anyone of the Zodiacs saw this bead, they would surely kill each other to have this. This was an item capable of inducing even the greed of the Administrators.
"Star Chaos Bead." Jin Rou said, "I know you are familiar with this, and I know you very much aware of the effects of this."
The bead was born from the chaos of a lonely star itself. It germinated for millions of years before becoming the bead it was now. For the Zodiacs, this item was a must have and would do everything to have, even killing their own kin.
"You are making me use a treasure that will make their eyes salivate in greed." Pisces took a very deep breath, "You are making me invite the catastrophes to feast on me."
"That will happen only if I'm not around. With me there, who can touch you? I just want you to kill your certain nemesis and kill the Administrator I name, that's it. It's a win win situation for the both of us." Jin Rou responded.
Truthfully speaking, Pisces wasn't losing out in this deal and he was aware of it. Just think about it, he would have the Star Chaos Bead while killing Taurus. And to add to that, he would also kill an Administrator in response to Jin Rou's request.
If there's someone losing out here, it must be the other party.
The Star Chaos Bead would surely make rapid effects once he used it in public. In fact, even the possibility would react to it. Moreover, he didn't have to go all the trouble to make the certain admin come out as this bait would surely make him come.
Everything was already set in plan. The last step was to execute it by him, Pisces.
