Veldor was persuaded by Slaier.
He no longer thought about taking Gomu out of the "Netherworld," as that had become impossible.
As the god of deception and trickery had said, Gomu had adapted to life here and was enjoying it; he didn't believe he was still alive, and taking him out of here might have resulted in his refusal.
Furthermore, Slaier had told him that mortals who had stayed in this "Netherworld" would receive compensation when it collapsed.
This compensation was not to be meager.
It included gold and silver, status, estates and manors... more importantly, it included lifespan.
In this world, there were so many things that could be exchanged for lifespan, yet so few things that could actually extend it.
This generous compensation even tempted Veldor.
He believed that if Gomu knew staying in the "Netherworld" meant compensation after its collapse, he would surely want to stay in this place.
