Become a powerful shadow master in the new world

As for the girl who bowed and apologized in front of him, holding her wallet in front of her, Sid felt... no, a little bit of emotion in his heart.

The moment he realized this fact, Sid's pupils trembled, but he took the wallet calmly.

"More, this is enough."

After counting, he found that there were still hundreds of thousands left after deducting his expenses. Although Sid was very tempted by this huge sum of money, he only took the amount he spent on taking care of the kitten during this period.

"No, Sid, these are originally given to you. I want you to help me take care of them."

"?"

Yeze Natsune squatted down, looked at the kittens with gentle eyes, picked one up, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly.

"Brother Sheed, I'm leaving this island and may never come back.

I'm worried about them, but I can't find anyone willing to adopt them right away, so I would like to ask you, Brother Sid, to take care of them for me and help me find someone willing to adopt them.

I know Sid doesn't want to take care of them, but if money is an issue, I can help, and if the money is not enough I can get more.

So just this once, just once, until we find someone willing to adopt them.”

Looking at the anxious Natsune Yease in front of him, Sid started to think about this matter in his heart.

Obviously, this matter is in his favor. Although not many people on this island keep pets, the so-called few people are based on the huge population of this island. Excluding those who are unable to adopt, live in residential areas where pets are prohibited, and have no intention of adopting, there are still many people who can keep pets.

In other words, if he could find an adoptive family before the money given by Yeze Natsune was spent, the remaining money would naturally belong to him.

Even though there will be expenses before finding someone willing to adopt the child, the minimum amount is hundreds of thousands. No, Xia Yin can get more, so it's millions.

He was even a little bit heartless. After getting the money, he didn't care about the cat's life or death, and no one knew about it. After all, Yeze Natsune had already left the island at that time.

and so……

"Well... well, I will try my best to take care of them before you come back and find them adoptive families."

Of course he agreed. Why would he refuse when he could get hundreds of thousands for free? Of course, he couldn't just ignore the money after getting it. Neither the extra Sid nor the powerful shadow Sid would do that. That would be too despicable.

Hearing Sid's answer, Yeze Natsune's originally furrowed brows relaxed and she smiled.

"Thanks, Sid."

After saying thank you, Yeze Natsune continued to check the cat's body. After all, he had no experience in taking care of cats, and there was no guarantee that something might be wrong with the cat during these days, leaving problems.

Seeing this scene, Sid could only shrug his shoulders and turn around to continue petting the cat. This cute creature, with its furry appearance and top-notch touch, really made him unable to stop. If it didn't take up his exercise time and a lot of money, he would have wanted to raise one.

It’s a pity that this good thing that can relieve most of the stress without spending any money is about to end.

"By the way, why do you need my help? We don't know each other at all. Xia Yin, aren't you afraid that I will just take the money and leave it alone?"

This was Sid's true thought. Although he seemed to be very familiar with Xia Yin before, they had only known each other for a few months.

In fact, he and Xia Yin might not talk as much in a week as they did today. Usually, he would come here on weekends to pet the cats and relieve stress, while Xia Yin would take care of the cats beside him. They would not say a few words to each other in a whole day.

They have no idea who the other person is, where they live, which school they go to, or what they like to eat. Apart from the fact that they both like cats, the names they tell each other may be fake. They are strangers who know each other, and this is probably the kind of relationship they have.

"No, because... Sid is a very gentle person, and doesn't Sid like them very much?"

"???"

I have to say, Yeze Natsune's answer successfully confused Sid.

Sid really wanted to ask Yeze Natsune if she was blind. How could you associate him with gentleness, a word that doesn't suit him at all.

Sid recalled who he was and what he had done in the past year.

He recruited an international terrorist organization, almost sent the entire Eurasian continent into the sky with one blow because he thought it was cool, turned a blind eye to a natural disaster that destroyed the world, and is still being wanted (just wanted), etc.

Haha, the fact that he is a gentle person is almost as ridiculous as the existence of the Diablo Cult.

What he fears most is when the atmosphere suddenly becomes quiet, especially when he is having a good chat and suddenly he doesn’t know how to respond. But there is no way, he really doesn’t know how to respond for a while.

“Gugu~~”

Fortunately, the awkwardness was broken by the rumbling sound coming from Natsune Yezawa's stomach.

"Mmmmm..., I, I..."

Well, Yeze Natsune didn’t feel relieved, but blushed instead. She subconsciously covered her belly with her hands, and she stammered because of shame about what she wanted to say.

"Because you were in such a hurry to come here, you didn't have time to eat?"

There are generally two ways to deal with this kind of situation which is very shameful and embarrassing for women.

The first is to deliberately make fun of the matter. For two parties who have a good relationship, it is an opportunity to deepen their feelings.

The second is to pretend you didn’t see it and jump directly to the next topic instead of holding on to it.

He was not a person who would make fun of a girl's embarrassing aspects. Even though the relationship between him and Yeze Natsune should be good after the commission just now, he still felt that this behavior was a bit bad.

"Um..., well, I haven't been here for a while. I was worried that something might happen to them."

Seeing that Sid didn't care much about what happened just now, Yeze Natsune, who was originally in a state of shame, gradually calmed down and began to explain the reason.

"..."

"Brother Sheed, I have some questions for you. If your home..."

"Stop, stop, stop, Xia Yin, instead of letting me know about your family affairs, I think what you need now is to fill your stomach."

In fact, he has no interest in other people's family affairs. He is too familiar with this kind of thing. It is very likely that something happened to Yese Natsune at home, and it is most likely related to her absence these days.

But he didn't want to care at all. It would not only prevent him from having the chance to transform into a powerful shadow, but would also waste his time. So he changed the subject first and would just run away when the time came, without giving Xia Yin a chance to speak.

"Here, watermelon juice. I don't have anything to eat with me, so let's replenish our sugar intake first."

Fortunately, he thought it was troublesome to go to the convenience store again on his way back, so he bought the watermelon juice together. Otherwise, he might have to pay for Xia Yin's dinner. As for the watermelon juice for the devil tonight, he would buy it at the convenience store on his way back.

Thinking of this, he took out the watermelon juice from his backpack and threw it to Xia Yin.

"Hmm! Why, don't you like drinking?"

I don’t know if it was Sid’s illusion, but when Xia Yin took the watermelon juice just now, the already delicate and fair skin on her face seemed to become even whiter.

"No, how could that be? I really like the things Sid gave me."

As if to refute, Yeze Natsune directly opened the watermelon juice and drank it.

"Hey! Xia Yin, you don't have to be so anxious."

It was more like pouring water than drinking. At this speed, even if Ye Xie Xia swallowed quickly, some water would leak out of the bottle and wet her clothes.

When Yeze Natsune finished drinking, not only were some of her clothes wet, but her face was also pale.

If Sid was still doubting whether he had seen it wrong just now, now Sid was sure that Yeze Natsune did not like drinking watermelon juice.

"Xi..., uh, ugh ugh..."

Xia Yin vomited as soon as she said one word.

Chapter 10 The Courage to Be Disliked

"So why not say no?"

Inside the cafe, Sid and Yeze Natsune sat face to face in a secluded place.

"me……"

Just like before, Yeze Natsune didn't know how to answer again, but this time, Sid didn't plan to cover it again. The money had been spent, so it didn't matter whether it was troublesome or not.

I originally thought of giving her a bottle of drink to fool her, letting Yeze Natsune replenish some sugar, and then going out to buy food myself, which would fit her character and save money, but in the end...

Damn, there are people who actually feel nauseous or even vomit after eating watermelon juice. What kind of person is this? I feel embarrassed to leave now.

The result was that after Xia Yin got better, he still had to pay for her to go to the coffee shop to fill her stomach.

Although the money he spent was given by Natsune Yezase to take care of the cat, after he found an owner for the cat, the remaining money would be his, so it was still his money that was spent.

Sid's eyes were fixed on Yeze Natsune.

"I, I don't know how to say no."

After a long silence, Yeze Natsune spoke.

"I don't think so."

Yeze Natsune is not a person who will not refuse, at least that's what Sid thinks. Yeze Natsune's eyes are very clear, but that doesn't mean she is weak and will not refuse others. There is self-awareness and courage in her eyes.

and so…

"When you say you don't know how to refuse, you probably mean you don't know how to refuse someone's kindness."

As if because of what he said, Yeze Natsune lowered her head.

In fact, if you just think about it, you will know that Yeze Natsune is not a person who lacks the courage to reject the malice of others. Then why didn't Yeze Natsune refuse? Because it was someone else's kindness.

Yeah, she looks a bit like Shirley.

"Although you may be a little nosy and worry too much, Xia Yin, you need to change your personality."

"Yeah, sorry."

"You have nothing to apologize for, Natsune."

Looking at the girl in front of him who was bowing her head to apologize, Sid sighed again in his heart.

If possible, he didn't want to care about this matter, but if he didn't, the pair of eyes he liked would be covered by regret sooner or later.

This is not alarmist, but a fact. It is not difficult to learn to reject other people's malice, but the difficult part is how to correctly reject other people's kindness.

Not all good intentions are truly friendly to the parties involved, just like parents and children, who want their children to be successful but completely fail to consider the children's own abilities and wishes. In the end, the parents' good intentions will only crush the children.

Don't blindly reject all the kindness in this world. That will only make you autistic. You must learn to say no correctly. Your parents are your elders, and they do have social experience that you don't have.

What children need to learn is to treat what their parents say as suggestions rather than orders, and to selectively accept them after thinking for themselves.

Don't ask him why he knows so much, his sister is the parent who didn't consider his abilities or intentions at all.

That's why he doesn't want to meddle in other people's family affairs. He can't even take care of his own family affairs, so how can he care about others? But...

Sid glanced at Xia Yin.

Just think of it as compensation for the dirty feeling that Yeze Natsune has had in her heart these days, as after-sales service to the sponsor, and as the thought of not wanting such pure eyes to become dirty, and act as a psychologist.

"Xia Yin, I can probably tell what you want to ask, so let me ask you a question first. Do you hate Genkami Island?"

Yeze Natsune shook her head.

"it's OK."

"So it was your parents' idea to leave here. Was it because of you? If so, can you tell me more?"

"Yes, it's my fault. My father said that the place I'm going to is very good for me."

"So, do you want to go?"

At this point in the conversation, it was actually a bit like an interrogation, but there was nothing we could do. For someone like Yeze Natsune who would keep things to herself, she wouldn't say anything unless we were tough.

"No, I don't want to leave here. How could I want to leave this island where I have my friends, a bunch of kittens who need my care, and you, Sid?"

It seemed like a long time had passed, but it also seemed like just a few seconds had passed before Yeze Natsune's crying voice was heard.

"So, have you told your parents about your thoughts?"

There is actually no need to ask this question. Given Yeze Natsune's personality, there is no way she would object.

"No, no."

See, it was totally what he expected.

"Xia Yin, have you heard of a very interesting theory?"

“When faced with two choices, flipping a coin always works.

Not because it always gives the right answer, but because the moment you toss it in the air, you suddenly know what you want.

The coin toss is not about making the right choice, but about knowing what you are looking for the moment he tosses it into the air.”

"In the same way, when you found me and asked me a question, your heart had already told you the answer."

“You can even say that you know what you want from the beginning, and under this premise, there is only one real problem.

Do you have the courage to resist?"

"The courage to resist!?"

There was surprise and confusion on Yeze Natsune's face.
