I'm going to kill everyone who calls me Hill.

Chapter Fourteen

"Sir, you are such a joke, I am just a skeleton."

The shop assistant pointed at himself and said with a smile.

"??"

Xier was stunned. This clerk didn't even shy away from other people saying that he was a skeleton. Xier looked around and found that no one had turned their eyes to this place, as if they didn't care about this matter at all.

"This is your first time here, so you don't know."

The clerk laughed when he saw Xier's reaction. This reaction was very familiar to him. Almost every new person here would show a similar expression, whether he was a weirdo or an ordinary human.

The clerk went on to explain: "This can be said to be a peaceful place for monsters and humans, because everyone who comes here has only one purpose, and that is - books."

"No matter how weird it is..." He pointed his finger at a tall and thin man in the area next to Xier. The man noticed the clerk's gesture, nodded in sudden understanding, and then showed his fangs to Xier.

"Still human..." The clerk's hand extended to a man on the other side. The man looked up and smiled gently.

“Everyone who comes here is looking for a pure land in this world, free from distractions.” The skeleton clerk stretched out his arms and hugged it as if he was embracing the entire bookstore.

“That’s the meaning of this bookstore.”

The skeleton clerk raised his head with firm belief in his eyes. Although he was a scary skeleton, he gave people an admirable sense of holiness, like a staunch believer. The green flames in his eyes seemed to have turned into pure holy flames. At this moment, no one would think that what he said was incorrect.

(A pure land in the floating world?)

Xier didn't say anything. She glanced at the clerk with a holy expression on his face... and then silently stuffed his half-dead soul back into his body.

"Ah! Phew..."

The moment the soul entered his body, the clerk couldn't help but tremble all over, as if he had come back to life.

"Ah, thank you so much, guest. If it weren't for you, I might have ascended to heaven by now... ahahaha."

The skeleton clerk laughed sheepishly.

Xier silently covered her face. She actually used her faith to ignite the Holy Flame and almost purified herself...

I, Xier, would like to call it a unique skill.

"Oh, by the way, after saying so much, I still don't know what type you want to buy, sir."

The clerk suddenly remembered that Xier didn't seem to have said what kind of book she wanted to buy.

"Excuse me, do you need anything else besides the one you have in your hand?"

"what?"

Xier was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she had picked up a book casually in the previous chapter. Originally, she just intended to use it as an excuse to hide her surprise, but after what the clerk said just now, she was embarrassed to put the book back, so she just took it in her hand and took it back.

"Well...then...this one plus the whole set of comics over there."

Seele held the book and pointed to a comic book on the bookshelf next to her rather embarrassedly. The title of the book was quite long, it was called "Fighting Slimes for 300 Years, Unknowingly Reaching the Maximum Level"... Well, there should be no problem giving it to Rimuru.

"Ok!"

The clerk quickly took out the whole set of comic books and asked, "Do you need mailing service?"

"No, no, I can do it myself."

Xier waved her hands quickly. The remaining unknown in her imaginary space was enough to take the books back.

Seeing Xier like this, the clerk didn't say anything. He was also a man who had seen the world, and some people with spatial abilities would also do this.

"Okay, thank you for your patronage."

The clerk quickly scanned all the books and handed the bill to Xier.

"Well, that's troublesome."

Xier nodded, handed the credit card to the clerk with one hand, then opened the imaginary space with the other hand and stuffed all the books into it.

"Okay, checkout completed."

The clerk smiled and handed the card back to Xier.

"call……"

Xier took the card and breathed a sigh of relief, finally being able to complete the commission.

"Hmm? That is? What is he doing here?"

Just as Xier was about to go outside, she suddenly saw a familiar figure through the window. The small figure was actually a shrunken Shinichi.

"guest?"

"It's okay, it's okay. I just saw someone I know. I'll take my leave today and I'll be back later."

After saying that, Xier pushed the door and walked out.

"Welcome to visit us next time."

————————————————————————————

After walking out of the shop, Xier couldn't help but look back at the shop.

(Leisure time... huh... I didn't expect there was such a place here...)

After silently sighing at this unusual place in her heart, Xier walked towards the place where Shinichi disappeared. She felt that this little guy must have done something weird again.

As expected, when Seele hid herself in the dark and caught up, she saw Shinichi, who was using the alias Conan, with three children. Seeing this scene, Seele couldn't help but sigh.

"Eh? It's only been a few days and he's already completely integrated into the ranks of kids? It's true that men remain teenagers until they die."

But soon Seele realized she was wrong. She thought Conan and the kids were just out for fun, but when she wanted to leave, she heard the little girl happily say, "Yeah! (^o^)/~ The code has been solved! The treasure belongs to our Junior Detective Team!"

(Treasure?)

Xier's ears moved. Is this a child's treasure?

(No……)

Seele glanced at Conan's expression and immediately rejected this idea. If it was really a child's treasure, Conan should have shown a bored expression. For this detective fan, it should only be a secret code that is attractive.

But Seele saw that the moment the little girl mentioned the treasure, Conan's expression became serious for a moment, and he obviously thought of something, which means that this treasure might be real?

When Xier thought of this, she suddenly became interested. She didn't expect that there would still be treasures in this era. But what kind of treasure would be buried in such a place?

"Let's go! Conan! Let's go find the treasure!"

The three children happily ran towards the so-called treasure location with the note in their hands, leaving Conan behind.

"Wait! You guys!"

Conan originally wanted to reach out to stop them, but the three people left too quickly before he could reach out his hand.

"Tsk!" Conan smacked his lips secretly, then followed.

(It’s not that simple.)

When Seele saw Conan's anxious look, she knew that it was definitely not an ordinary treasure.

"Hmm? Those guys?"

As Conan left, Seele saw several people in black clothes following him quietly, but Conan, who was focusing on the children, did not notice the people following him.

"Black clothes?"

Xier frowned. The black clothes these people wore reminded her of the two guys she beat for three minutes.

(Are they in the same group?)

Seele subconsciously felt that these people might be related to those two people, and Seele was very interested in the things in the hands of those two people that Conan transformed.

(No matter if it is or not, just fight first!)

Even if they are not, it doesn’t matter. These people don’t look like good people. It can be considered a good deed for Xier to beat them up!

Seele thought so, then she snapped her fingers lightly, triggering the teleportation magic that teleported Seele directly to the people who were about to catch up with Conan.

"who!"

Seeing Xi'er suddenly appear in front of them, the men in black were stunned for a moment, and then they saw that it was actually a little girl who was blocking their way. Their expressions instantly became fierce, and they pointed at Xi'er and cursed, "Little brat! Get out of the way! Don't block my way!"

"Oh? (╬◣д◢)"

Xier sneered as she listened to what the other party said, and the look she gave him became increasingly colder.

(I was originally thinking of just giving him a beating, but now it seems like I’m going to have some fun!)

The man in black was still spouting threats, not noticing that Xier's aura was becoming more and more terrifying.

Finally, when he was about to greet Xier's family, a fierce light flashed in Xier's eyes. She rushed forward and strangled the man's neck.

"you!"

The man in black felt like a chicken with its neck pinched by Xier, and his face turned red.

"You know what? There aren't many toys these days, and Xi'er is really bored!"

A gorgeous red dress instantly replaced Xier's original clothes, and her deep blue eyes turned scarlet.

“You!! You!!”

The man in black, who was about to say a few threatening words, shouted at the top of his voice like a duck with its neck pinched.

"You! Don't come over!!!"

Chapter 15: Bow Tie?

"Oh? That's not enough?"

Xier grabbed the collar of the arrogant man in black with one hand and pressed him against the wall, a hint of boredom revealed in her scarlet eyes.

(This guy is too weak. It was just a few hits, while the two guys before him lasted a full three minutes. It seems that they were not fighting together...)

Xier looked at the man in black in front of her who was obviously breathing out more than breathing in, smacked her lips softly, and then threw him aside as if throwing away a rag.

"Tell me, what is your purpose? Why are you following that child?"

Looking at the man in black who was struggling to climb up with the help of the wall and leaning his upper body against the wall, Xier lowered her head and fiddled with her nails, as if all the cruel things she had done before were not done by her.

"Hahaha"

Seeing that Xier didn't move, the man in black gasped for breath like a fish into water. It took him a while to find the strength to speak. Looking at the woman in front of him, he knew that if he couldn't satisfy her today, he might not live for more than three hours.

"Talk, huh?"

The soft mumbling sounded like a demon demanding his life in the man's ears. Seeing Xier turning her attention back to him, he was so scared that he spoke quickly.

"I said...I said...I said..."

"Our boss... led us... to rob a bank before, but that guy... was tempted by the money and ran away with the robbed money... and came here. Then, in order to get... the money, we also chased him here..."

The man spoke intermittently about their origins, but that was not what Xier wanted to hear.

"Tell the important point!"

Xier kicked him in the abdomen. She didn't have time to listen to their old stories.

"I said! I said!"

The man covered his abdomen in pain, his facial features squeezed together quickly. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain as he spoke: "That guy got the code. We originally wanted to tie them up and bring them back, but we didn't expect him to decipher the first symbol, so we wanted him to help us decipher the code. I've told you everything!! I've told you everything! Stop fighting... wuwuwuwuwu."

It was not known whether Xier's methods were too cruel or his tolerance was too low, but the man who had just confessed everything suddenly began to feel pain and was obviously in a state of collapse.

"Finally I said something useful."

Seeing that he didn't want to do anything else, Xier conjured up a rope and tied him up, then Xier called the police.

Although killing is a pleasant thing for Seele now, Seele has decided before that she should try her best to restrain her desires, including the desire to kill. Moreover, Seele is more or less a public official, so people like this can be left to the local authorities. She personally is still quite optimistic about Inspector Megure's group of police officers.

"Hey!"

Xier kicked him again, and the man in black was so scared that he stopped crying.

"How many people are there among you?"

"Three...three..." The man in black looked up at Xier in fear, and lowered his head again the next moment their eyes met, for fear of looking Xier in the eye again.

"Three? That means there are two left."

Xier's eyes narrowed. The two men should have caught up with them. Those little kids couldn't deal with them.
