How come I am still being controlled by them even though I have changed my ways?

result.

next moment.

The response from the elf loli in front of him... made him a little overwhelmed for a moment.

"Are you saying that you also peeked at my body?"

"Don't you think that to me, you are more like 'young grass'?"

158. Ah Zhen, are you serious?

Elder Melm's words stunned Jill: What kind of trick is this?

He hadn't seen it before? Why did Elder Melm start to swerve to himself? He was just going through the motions, and seeing that Elder Melm was actually quite cute, he said something every yellow-haired character would say.

Why is Elder Melm so "hungry"?

Jill was suddenly a little confused.

But how could he admit defeat at this moment? He wanted to be the "young master" in Elder Melm's eyes, so he couldn't back down when the time came. Otherwise, wouldn't Elder Melm think he was just a "fool with the will but no guts" and stop paying attention to him?

He could only bite the bullet and give the most "evil" smile he could muster.

"So what? In my eyes, as long as your body is 'delicious' enough, that's all that matters. Elder Melm, you don't want Dean Roy and Seraphim to be bullied in the capital, do you?"

Then, he strode up to Elder Melm.

He looked like a bad guy who had gained power, with the clear stupidity that was unique to a young master with yellow hair. Even at this point, he still had no idea how powerful Elder Melm was, and he kept challenging the other party's bottom line.

But in reality, Gil was terrified! He was afraid that Elder Melm would be displeased and make him turn his head 360 degrees.

Next, should I say "fortunately"? The elf loli before him was just as Miss Karen had told him before: she didn't get angry easily.

But: Although he was not angry, Elder Melm's response made Jill even more confused.

"You mean: if I stand up, you will stop harassing and interfering with my two high elves?"

"Uh?"

That’s right, isn’t Huangmao’s speech threatening in this way?

But just as Gil was about to answer, he felt something was wrong: Why did he have a feeling that Elder Melm was guiding him to say this?

Is Elder Melm someone who would be so easily "threatened by yellow hair"? This is not the case in Little Yellow Oil, where the elves become mentally retarded when they see goblins.

We have to resist him, right?

But now Elder Melm’s reaction is: Could it be true that as he just said, he is the “fresh meat”?

As a result, the next moment Elder Melm's response seemed to be true.

"Well...okay, I agree to this deal, and it's up to you what you want from now on."

For a moment, perhaps it was an illusion, Gil thought he saw Elder Melm smirking. But how could he care at this moment?

"Uh……"

Because Gil hadn't expected Elder Melm to be so "easy to deal with"! He was beginning to suspect that the elf in front of him was a man-eating goblin in a lolita outfit. She was like a wolf in her thirties and a tiger in her forties, and she was targeting him!

Moreover, when he didn’t respond, Elder Melm even urged him!

"What's wrong, Jill? Isn't this the deal you agreed to? Are you going to go back on your word now?"

After a pause, the corners of his mouth curved into a smile, and even his lifeless eyes curved into a smile.

"In your eyes, as long as the high elves' appearance suits your taste, you won't care about anything else, right?"

Jill was already sweating profusely - he spoke as if he didn't care about anything, as long as it was cute, even if it was an elf boy or girl!

Elder Melm's reaction was beyond his expectations. How could Jill dare to agree to the "deal" with Elder Melm so casually?

It would be strange if the other two elves didn’t beat him up later!

The only option is to "retreat first".

"Hmph~ Well, then, just look forward to it, Elder Melm."

"I know where you are and who you are. Don't think you can run away~"

He sounded domineering like Brother Jie, but in reality... Jill wanted to escape as fast as he could!

Outside Dean Roy's residence, three elves were waiting for him with great concern! However, Jill didn't dare to speak carelessly at this moment, for fear that Elder Melm would discover something.

I could only give everyone a look that said "let's talk about it later" and then leave in a hurry.

He silently swore in his heart: Next time, even if he is tortured to death by these bad women, he will never agree to such a dangerous plan again!

Why don’t these high elves play by the rules?

Jill just wants to be alone now.

He returned to his residence exhausted both physically and mentally. The only lucky thing was that Celine and Luvilia were not there, so Gil didn't have to bother finding excuses to hide his whereabouts today.

It was morning, the sun was shining brightly, and at first glance, he had just completed Seraphim's plan in his "first confrontation" with Elder Melm - making the high elf elder notice him, the "young-haired young master".

But everything that happened next, after Seraphim and Dean Roy left, was completely different from what he expected.

Even now, when Gil thought about it, he still felt a chill down his spine: Elder Melm gave him the feeling that he had "completely seen through his thoughts and was playing tricks on him" - which perfectly matched the dark and gloomy mentality of these high elves.

But: Whether it is true or not, he cannot admit it, and he can't even say "I want to quit" now.

Just as Jill was trying to calm down, the next moment, Kallen's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Good work, Jill."

Startled, Gil turned around and realized: Miss Karen had followed him all the way back quietly. She was now standing quietly behind him, watching his "unlucky start" with a smile.

It's a bit like gloating.

But now she was the only person Jill could confide in. She couldn't just throw herself into Seraphim's arms and complain, could she? Jill didn't even dare to think about the consequences of doing that.

"It's because Elder Melm is too difficult to deal with..."

After a pause, Jill asked doubtfully, "Karen, did you... hear everything?"

Otherwise, he wouldn't have said that he worked hard - he really did work hard. Roy and Seraphim ran away after a moment of hesitation, leaving him alone to deal with Elder Melm.

After a moment's hesitation, Kallen nodded: "Sorry, I almost heard it from outside the door."

"It's hard for you to be told that by Elder Melm."

Such comfort was enough. After all, Jill didn't really want to back out. She just wanted to find someone to talk to about her depressed mood today.

but……

Both Elder Melm and Kallen at this moment seemed a little strange.

And then, the next moment, Miss Karen suddenly asked a very serious question.

"So, Jill, what are you thinking? Are you going to make this fake play with Elder Melm real?"

"Otherwise, Elder Melm would just dismiss you as a weak, incompetent piece of shit and not care about you anymore, right?"

159. It is better to surrender and still receive a promotion.

Where did this death-choice question come from? It seems there's no correct answer.

If he agreed, would Karen suspect him of having "ulterior motives"? But if he refused, the situation Karen just described would only happen - Elder Melm was not easy to fool. After meeting him in person, Jill was even more certain of this.

However, Miss Kallen was gentle and didn't push him for an answer.

Maybe it was just to make him laugh, but it also really served as a comfort.

"Would you like a cup of tea?"

When Jill looked again, the elf in front of him was smiling, but his eyes were not looking at him, but staring out the window.

"I only do this kind of thing once in a while."

soon.

The newly renovated attic where Karen lived was obviously no different from an ordinary room. The east and west attic windows could also bring sunlight in, so that mushrooms would not grow in the dampness.

On the small dining table that Jill had taken great pains to bring up earlier, there was already a cup of black tea brewed by Karen for him - compared to before, Karen's attitude towards him had also softened a little.

While sipping the sweet taste, Gil sighed and told the elf girl in front of him everything about the "tug of war" he had just had with Elder Melm.

There was nothing to hide in the first place. He would definitely have to explain things to the other two elves later anyway.

Then, he added helplessly.

"Ms. Kallen, could it be that Elder Melm is... so hungry that he's not picky about what he eats?"

"Cough cough..."

Kallen, who was drinking tea, coughed twice, quickly put down the cup and retorted: "Don't insult the high elves, what do you think of us?"

"But Elder Melm didn't even resist?"

Kallen rolled her eyes at him. "Why couldn't Elder Melm have chosen to sacrifice himself to protect the two of them?"

Jill rubbed his aching forehead and said with a wry smile, "But there's no way this will end, Kallen."

If they were just targeting this "young master" of a family, it would be fine, but now Elder Melm has put himself at risk...

"I can't really do anything to Elder Melm, can I?"

It’s not a question of “age” - an elf loli, as long as she looks like a loli and speaks like a loli, then she is a loli no matter how old she is.

Rather, Gil's conscience was condemning him—he had already turned over a new leaf, and this was just a show under the pressure of Seraphim's Silver Power. How could he really attack the kind and righteous Elder Melm?

When he was in distress, Kallen in front of him just stared at him without saying a word.

It wasn't until Jill felt the unnecessary silence that she smiled and said, "Then why don't I give you a solution, Jill."

A moment ago, Jill thought she had met her savior!

But just as Kallen started to explain as if she had been prepared for it, that "strange feeling" crept up Jill's back again.

"You can tell Elder Melm all about Seraphi's plan. That way, you can get out of this situation without offending Elder Melm."

Without waiting for Jill to speak, he continued, "Elder Melm is very magnanimous and will definitely forgive what you did before~"

"After this, leave the responsibility of dealing with Dean Roy and Seraphim to Elder Melm. As the one being coerced, you don't have to worry about being held accountable by her."

The more Karen spoke, the more satisfied she became. If you didn't know, you would think she was the beneficiary.

"Anyway, it was all Seraphim's idea, and Roy agreed to cooperate, right? You're just a victim~"

Kallen waved her hand calmly, as if this matter had nothing to do with her or Jill.

Jill agreed with Kallen: at least the Melm elder did look like someone who could "communicate normally."

Rather than risking being discovered and holding on until the end, it is better to "be lenient to those who confess and be severe to those who resist" from the beginning.

However, even now, that strange feeling... still lingered in Jill's mind, driving him to look up and stare at the elf in front of him.

Should I say "strong mental strength"? Even with him looking at her like that, Kallen could still sip her tea leisurely, as if she had completely forgotten all the danger and Elder Melm's suspicions.

This is also the question that Jill is most suspicious about at the moment.

"Ms. Karen."

After a pause, Kallen tilted her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You look... as if you don't care about Dean Roy and Seraphim's 'safety' at all?"

Then, he added, "You are still Dean Luo Yi's student?"

Sure enough, the strange silence just now appeared again.

Kallen replied calmly, "I'm just proposing a reasonable solution. Although it's called a punishment, Elder Melm certainly won't do anything to Seraphim and Roy."

Then, he sighed and said helplessly: "Who made them a saint of the church on one side and a princess of the royal family on the other... Alas..."

"…What's wrong, Jill?"

As if he noticed that Jill didn't say anything, he finished expressing his dilemma and then asked.

"No, it's nothing. I think I'll think about it, Kallen."

"Very good. I will await your result. Once you have made up your mind, please tell me and I can arrange a private meeting with Elder Melm for you."

There were multiple footsteps coming from downstairs in the attic. Whether it was Sirin and Luvilia returning, or Seraphim and the others chasing after them, it meant that Jill and Kallen's time alone was over.
