Guild Boss's Ambition

As long as he finds a fresh body and uses a soul transplant, his son will be able to say goodbye to the fate of a monster.

However, if I do this, I will no longer have any reasonable excuse to study Painted Skin in the future, and as long as they need me to provide hearts, Green Willow, whose fighting power is unfathomable, will always act as my pawn. But with his connections and wisdom, I believe he will be able to find a source of heart supply elsewhere soon.

After all, I am not the only necromancer in the world who knows how to reshape the body.

But even if Lvliu found other necromancers, the person he would choose to cooperate with in the end should be me, because compared with other necromancers who have done many evil things, I at least have a legitimate identity. Even if the supervisors discovered that Lvliu and I had frequent contact, it would be easy for us to fabricate statements and cover up the matter.

Lvliu was a smart man. He quickly realized that there is no such thing as a free lunch, and immediately asked about the price: "You just said that you want me to pay, right? How many gold coins are these hearts worth? No, you should not be short of money, right? What do you want from me? Please note that I will not agree to any request."

"Not that you will agree to any request? Actually, you will agree to almost any request, right?"

My merciless sarcasm immediately caused the Exorcist to frown deeply, but he could not refute anything because what I said was the fact. However, based on the contract between Ulu and me, I could not actually ask Lvliu to commit crimes. I could only send him to perform some legal and appropriate tasks.

I thought about it and made an offer: "First, you must complete the two transaction conditions you promised me on behalf of the Church as soon as possible. Secondly, here is a list of alchemical materials. You can copy it yourself later. Each material in it can be exchanged for ten hearts. Don't worry, I will take good preservation measures for each heart, so you don't have to worry about it expiring."

As I spoke, I handed him a list of alchemical materials.

The list simply stated the names of the ingredients, without listing the required quantities in detail. However, just by seeing the names of the ingredients, our detective already had a twitching expression on his face.

"If you want me to help you collect these, you might as well let me kill people for you..."

"I'm sorry, but I don't have any particular life I want right now. Besides, I won't do anything illegal."

"I will try my best to find the things, but please put away your disgusting smile."

"Hey, I'm very confident in my beauty..."

"Ugh……"

54. A tangled mess (Ehard)

(Mener-Ehard)

In a chaotic state of consciousness, every part of my body was filled with a joyful feeling of relaxation. The mattress beneath me was as soft as a cloud, and the quilt was of just the right thickness, warm, neither too hot nor too cold, and it smelled of the wonderful scent of freshly washed sheets. Half-conscious, I turned over leisurely, rolling from one pillow to another.

strangeness……

There shouldn't be two pillows on my bed.

Doubts brought back memories, and everything that happened last night instantly filled my mind.

【Boom! Boom! Boom!】

The heart, which had been beating slowly, suddenly beat violently several times.

"Last night, Berlane and I..."

I escaped from reality and crawled under the quilt. At this time, Blanny was no longer in bed, but despite my subjective consciousness, I could still clearly smell the girl's body fragrance hidden under the quilt.

It was a light, elegant, violet-like fragrance.

It should have been a flower on a mountain that could only be admired from afar, but yesterday I was...

【Boom! Boom! Boom!】

Recalling those wonderful scenes, my heartbeat once again expressed its frank feelings to me.

"Why is Berlane like this..."

"Is it really okay for sisters to do this kind of thing?"

Looking at the clothes that had been carefully folded by Blanny beside the bed, many questions kept popping up in my mind, but on the other side of my heart, I felt disgusted with myself for having doubts. Even if there were more doubts, I shouldn't have doubted my only sister. Blanny must have her own reasons for what happened last night.

Because I was awakened by the shock, I got up earlier than usual, only at 6:15.

I don't know when, a bamboo and wood ring appeared on my little finger.

In view of the dramatic changes that happened last night, common sense prevented me from taking off the ring and I let it remain on my finger for the time being.

"Did Berlane put it on me? Or was it at some time when I have no memory of it?"

I put on my clothes while trying to recall the past night. These clothes were not what I wore last night, but new clothes I took from my room. Berlane usually did the laundry early in the morning. On the desk not far away were a few coins and a blue slime keychain that I had casually thrown into my pocket...

Huh? Not just blue slimes, but red and green ones too?

These slimes are small gifts given away by grocery stores when they sell candies recently. There are 287 of them in the set, collectively called "Slime Village". To be honest, I don't particularly like this kind of slime toy, but I got the first one by chance, and then out of some kind of obsessive collecting disorder...

Anyway, I have been secretly collecting these childish and stupid things recently!

If someone else discovered this secret, I would probably be very shy, but if it was Brannie, then there would be no problem at all, she knows my personality very well and would not mistake me for a cute babe who loves cute things. No, no, no, it's not that there's anything wrong with being cute, but being completely misunderstood as having a different personality for no reason is also very troublesome.

I stuffed the few coins and the slime keychain into the front pocket of my sweatshirt, put on my slippers with the joy of having just eaten honey, and prepared to leave the room to find Berlani to ask for clarification. Uh... it's easy to talk about finding Berlani in my mind, but it's not easier to actually do it than to fight Bai Ye alone.

Do not!

In a sense, Brannie is a stronger being than Bai Ye!

Even after being sisters for fifteen years, almost sixteen years, I still don't fully understand what's going on in Blanny's heart.

From childhood to adulthood, her inner world has been relatively closed. She is not the kind of girl who is willing to share and talk about everything with others, and the things she cares about are not necessarily those interesting things suitable for conversation. What she likes are always those that others find boring. Even as her sister, I sometimes cannot understand her preferences.

Perhaps it was during this period of time that a distance between me and Blanny began to form.

Chuckling.

As I touched the door lock, someone on the other side turned the lock.

In order to avoid a collision, I quickly stepped aside and let the person opposite open the door first.

"Huh? You're awake."

My sister, Berlane, looked and sounded the same as always. Her clear blue eyes seemed not to be shaken at all by the beauty of last night. There was no awkwardness in her every move. She just took my arm so cleanly and naturally, led me back to the room when I was about to leave, and placed a large paper bag of food and drinks on the dining table.

"Blanny, last night...that...about..."

Looking at her like this, I felt like I should say something and I didn't know what to say.

While I was hesitating and chewing on my words carefully, Berlani had already prepared breakfast and said straightly, "Sister Meng'er, Miss Bai Ye came this morning and told me about the situation. The ring on your little finger was made by her to cover up the evil spirit. Also, if you need to solve your physical needs in the future, I am willing to help you."

“How amazing…”

"My sister is amazing. She can say such embarrassing things in a serious manner..."

But this was obviously not the time to admire her. Although Blanny's sacrifice last night did help a lot, no matter how you think about it, this matter itself is not sound. If it continues and some bad rumors spread, it would be an unnecessary harm to Blanny and me. In our time, a woman's innocence is extremely important.

I made up my mind and corrected him, "Blannie, you just need to prepare food for me. I can handle that myself. If all else fails, I can go to the black street and find a prostitute to handle it."

"A prostitute?"

Berlani fiercely pierced the lid of the cup with a straw and said lightly: "Those unclean women are not worthy of you, sister."

I frowned slightly: "Even if she is a prostitute, she is not necessarily unclean."

Hearing this, Berlani nodded in agreement and said seriously, "Maybe you are right, but you definitely deserve better. Whether it's prostitution or finding a prostitute, I absolutely don't agree with that. If it were you, even if we asked the guild's poster girls to sleep with you, no one would disagree."

"No one would agree with this! How could no one disagree? Belanny, your idea is very dangerous!"

"Oh, I was just kidding."

"It turned out to be just a joke."

I breathed a sigh of relief and patted my chest. Berlane handed me a piece of bread with butter and asked, "So what do you think of the service last night? Is there anything that needs to be improved? Although I have a preliminary understanding of the steps from various novels, the actual situation is indeed different from the plot in the novel..."

Real...actual combat situation.

Thinking about the actual situation, my face immediately turned red in front of the person involved.

Even though Mingjing Shisui was working, I still couldn't find a suitable answer to this matter no matter how calm I was. I stammered and said something bad in a hurry: "Well, how should I put it? Um... it feels... very good? No, no, no! Sister, that's not what I meant! What I meant is──"

"Just be comfortable. I'm enjoying it here too."

Before I could explain myself clearly, Blanny cast another destructive forbidden spell on my heart, which immediately blew away the words I had just prepared. But seeing her frank attitude, my shyness and embarrassment gradually subsided, and Blanny led me from the stormy sea to the sunny harbor.

I sorted out my thoughts, tried to create the tone of sisterly chat, and said with a wry smile: "My dear Berlane, to be honest, I am in a very complicated mood right now. If I can't recover from this damn state, I will definitely have a lot of troubles in the future... Um, by the way, did Bai Ye say anything to you?"

With a beautiful gesture, Brannie made a simple maple leaf latte art on her coffee and replied calmly, "She probably just left a ring and a message. She said that she couldn't bring you back even if she had the means."

That damn witch!!!

I was originally trying to count on a certain necromancer, but my face was immediately distorted. I had recently developed a little bit of goodwill towards her, but I didn't expect that she would ignore me when I needed her the most. But if you think about it from another angle, why is Bai Ye so determined not to help me get rid of this troublesome monster bloodline?

"We must find a suitable time to have a good talk with Bai Ye!"

While thinking of emergency measures, I reached into the paper bag containing breakfast bread. After searching here and there for several times, I suddenly realized that all the bread had been eaten up by me long ago. Even after eating three loaves of French bread, my stomach was only half full, and there was still a long way to go to satisfy my appetite.

If I remember correctly, Heloise spent five gold coins to fill me up last night...

With my current appetite, I would need at least thirty loaves of French bread for breakfast.

Just when I was feeling distressed about my amazing appetite, Berlane took out another three bags of French bread from her space ring and said calmly, "No problem. I've heard about your appetite from Miss Heloise. Now I always carry at least fifty bags of food with me. I will definitely be able to satisfy you."

Fifty bags of food...

When I heard this number, I couldn't help but be moved.

Although the space ring is a very convenient prop, it actually still has some inconveniences.

First of all, the space in each ring is connected to a person's soul. On average, each person's soul will only be connected to a personal space about the size of a family refrigerator. Even though Berlani's personal space is naturally a little wider than that of ordinary people, after stuffing fifty bags of food into it, it is probably almost full.

Furthermore, the duration of an ordinary space ring's opening is only ten seconds each time, and the cooling time is five minutes. If you want to put all fifty bags of food into the ring, it will inevitably take a lot of effort.

"My sister is so nice to me..."

With indescribable feelings, I chewed bread and had disordered thoughts, spending a short morning with the literary girl.

Next is still time for work, as for those tangled things...

Or should we wait until we catch the White Night Demon?

55. Monster? (Little Blue)

(Ulu-Lannon)

Last night, the moon in the sky strangely changed from ivory white to blood red. I thought I would encounter some strange things again, but I was safe and sound all night. The only unusual thing was that I was woken up by Augustus early in the morning. The security guard downstairs brought me a note saying that a man who called himself Lvliu wanted to meet me immediately.

But it was obvious that Lvliu's affairs were not my business. After simply returning his daughter's necklace to him, my role came to a temporary end. In the next part, Bai Ye came to connect with Lvliu. Knowing that Bai Ye was determined to take over this matter, I was basically relieved that Bai Ye would definitely be able to handle things well.

With a relaxed mood, I hastily ate the breakfast that Bai Ye had given me, rinsed my mouth, and climbed into bed again to take a nap. The nap was not very pleasant. The alarm clock named Lian'er woke me up on time. Recently, since Brannie has started to return to the stone house to work, the task of sending Lian'er to school occasionally falls on me.

but……

What kind of concept is it for a twelve-year-old loli to send another twelve-year-old loli to school?

Well……

If you encounter a bad guy, you can easily solve the problem by just throwing out a small spotted cat.

After sending Lian'er to school, I did not return to my daily work.

Today is my day off, which is a good opportunity to take a short break from my search mission.

The weather outside is very good, perfect for meeting up with friends you don't usually see to catch up. Ever since I found a stable job on the third floor, I seem to have developed some invisible barriers with the girls on the first floor. There are even several new girls whose names I can't remember accurately. When we occasionally bump into them on the street and our eyes meet, it feels a little weird.

It's that kind of awkward feeling that should be very familiar, yet completely unfamiliar.

Therefore, my planned itinerary today is to show off my presence in front of the lady on the first floor!

Of course, you can't just brush off your presence. If you try too hard to get close to others and make yourself familiar, you may end up giving people a first impression that is different from reality. Even if your main goal is to become a new recruit's poster girl, if you do it too obviously, you may be seen as someone who is deliberately building up your network. If you are not careful, you may become a scheming woman in the eyes of others without even realizing it.

"But what's wrong with being a scheming woman?"

"A scheming woman with a righteous outlook on life is obviously much less troublesome than a silly and sweet girl like KY!"

"Eh? Wait, why do I suddenly feel like I'm scolding Lian'er..."

"No! No! Lian Er's is called great wisdom appearing foolish! Uh-huh! Great wisdom appearing foolish!"

At 9:30 in the morning, I was walking on the corridor to Bai Ye's room, trying my best to distinguish my daughter Lian'er from ordinary silly girls. Halfway, a familiar figure came towards me. Today, she was still full of healthy sunshine, and her dashing posture was very suitable for walking with her head held high.

As soon as we met, I gave her a photo of my identification technique and called out, "Good morning! Meng'er - Sister!"

The president narrowed her eyes and asked with a hint of dissatisfaction: "Why did you split my greeting into two parts?"

"Because calling you Meng'er is easier to say. It always feels weird to call you sister."

"What's so strange about that? Just call me sister if I ask you to, you little brat who hasn't even fully grown all his hair!"
