This chapter is a masterclass in negotiation under the Dark Forest rules of the Mortal Stream. Han Li has just witnessed a demon fox transform into a tool spirit that has successfully possessed it, and now he must extract vital information from this being while gauging its threat level. What follows is not a friendly chat with a magical companion, but a cold, layered interrogation—a tactical audit disguised as conversation. The entity, who names herself Silvermoon, reveals the existence of the mysterious Silver Moon Wolf Clan and their terrifying talent of Soul Devouring. Han Li, true to form, probes relentlessly, testing her knowledge, her weaknesses, and her intentions. The chapter ends not with trust, but with a dangerous question that strips the negotiation to its absolute core: what do you plan to do now?
If this chapter feels like a cross between a diplomatic hostage negotiation and a job interview in hell, you’re reading it right. Here’s what to watch for:
