“Let’s do it this way. We can treat this as a test. If he can solve this problem, we’ll give him a chance.” “That’s a good idea. The beasts have always been a thorn in our sides. It’ll be great if we can take care of this once and for all.” “Since he looks so confident, maybe he can really resolve this. We might as well make use of him to get rid of this problem.” “The beasts have been fighting with us for many years. We can save a lot of trouble if this plan succeeds.” Everyone expressed their opinion and seemed very keen to rely on Yule to solve this difficult problem. Ten minutes were soon up, and Yule quickly returned to the room. He looked very relaxed and even had a drink in his hand. “So, gentlemen, are you done with the discussion? Do you have a better suggestion for my future development?” Yule smiled triumphantly, obviously certain of his victory. As he expected, everyone chose to give in. After all, this was not something anyone could do. Yule would be the best
“No matter what I do next, you and your people just need to go with the flow. If you agree, I’ll do my best to take care of the beast problem immediately. Of course, you don't have to worry about my source of information. My lips are sealed on this topic.” Yule quickly reached an agreement with these people. Then, Yule arrived at a remote house where all his men were hiding. He asked his men to do something unlawful for him, and they entered the beast forest by mistake because they wanted to escape justice, but they ran into Foxy by accident. Foxy realized from birth that she and her kind had a grudge against humans, but she was an inexperienced youngling, after all. She did not know much about humans and failed to notice their ulterior motives. The other party took note of Foxy’s appearance and made a detour back to safety. Yule arrived at his subordinate’s house anxiously. “Tell me everything you know about that person again. I have some information but it’s not compreh
Yule was amazed by the person in the portrait, not expecting to see such a beautiful woman. He was somewhat skeptical after seeing the drawing. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. Could it be the other party’s imagination? “Don’t worry, Yule. This woman is definitely real. I have an eye for beauty, so I’d never make a mistake.” Yule nodded at his subordinate's suggestive expression. Even if he was unreliable in other aspects, he would never mess up in this area. He was notorious for hanging out in various entertainment venues and was not a good guy. Yule quickly made copies of the woman’s portrait and spread the news everywhere. He looked forward to meeting this beautiful woman as soon as possible. In the meantime, Aslan finished his meal and walked on the streets idly. Yule stood on the streets, confident that he would find the woman with so many people helping him. “Hey, what's going on? Why is Foxy’s portrait posted everywhere? Has someone discovered he
Seeing Aslan’s greed, Yule was so angry that he trembled all over, but he was a smart man and knew what to do. “Indeed, a few energy stones aren't worth much. I can consider giving you something else if you can tell me more information.” Yule patted Aslan’s shoulder, trying to gloss things over. “No problem. As long as the price is right, everything can be discussed. To tell you the truth, this woman is nothing worth mentioning. “She’s not as beautiful as in the portrait. On the contrary, she’s very ugly. At least for me, I’ve never seen such an ugly woman in my life, but she’s quite powerful. Don’t think you can mess with her just because she’s ugly.” Yule frowned at this unexpected situation. “Are you saying that she looks different than in the portrait? If that’s the case, why—” Yule was interrupted before he could finish his words. “Now that I’ve given you such important information, you need to pay me or I won’t be happy about it.” Aslan beckoned Yule, waiting fo
Foxy was having tea with Philip, smiling brightly as she did. “So, this is tea made by humans. It smells pretty good. I wonder what it tastes like.” Foxy swallowed the tea in one gulp. Since tea leaves were quite precious, Foxy knew that she was in for a treat. After drinking the tea, Foxy was shocked to find some changes in her body and felt that she had become stronger. At this time, Aslan rushed over anxiously, staring at Philip in disbelief. “Philip, guess what I just heard?” Aslan was very worried about this development. Philip was puzzled, wondering what was wrong with Aslan to say this to him. “Well, since you didn’t guess it right, let me tell you. Someone is making inquiries about Foxy outside.” Philip and Foxy frowned, not expecting this turn of events. “What? What's going on? Tell me in detail. If someone is asking about Foxy, has she been exposed? How is that possible? We've been very cautious about it. How did this happen?” Philip was confused. They covered
“Hey buddy, you seem very troubled. Do you know something? Why don’t you tell me about it?” Yule asked curiously. “There’s no point in doing this. You can't find this woman even if you know anything about her.” Philip rolled his eyes. He had matched his testimony with Aslan before this, so he knew exactly what to say. Yule was very excited. He looked at Philip curiously, waiting to hear what he had to say. “This woman has been living in a remote place for a long time, and she’s very powerful. You’re no match for her. I saw her in the beast forest before and know she’s a force to be reckoned with because she almost killed me. Besides, this portrait is too bland. In reality, she has five eyes and looks very scary. “Forget it, I won’t say anymore. It freaks me out just talking about her.” Philip took the money and left, unwilling to stay a second longer. Seeing Philip’s hasty retreat, Yule felt that something was not normal. If this woman was so mysterious, why would so many
The other party quickly told them about the situation, and everyone was fascinated. Suddenly, a roar came from the side. “Arden!” Everyone jerked awake from their enthrallment. They were familiar with this voice and found it odd to hear it. “Did you hear a voice just now?” “I think so. Is it our boss’ voice?” “How is it possible? Are you drunk? Why would he appear in this place?” They knew that their boss was a gentleman and would never step into this place. At this time, the man named Arden was pulled out by his hair. “Ouch!” he screamed in pain, unable to react. More terrifyingly, the person doing it was his boss. He turned and glanced at Yule anxiously.“What’s up with the information you gave me? Why is it different from what I've been hearing? Everyone said there’s no beautiful woman in the forest, only a powerful but ugly woman!” Yule roared as he wrecked the place. Seeing this, the others ran for their lives. Arden was knocked to the ground and had no idea
“Hey buddy, I’m sorry to bother you.” Yule's attitude was quite nice. He approached Lyle and looked at him anxiously. Lyle was at a loss to see the guy at his feet. He had no idea why he encountered this mess when he was only here for a meal. “What’s up? I remember you, but the deal between us is over. Don’t try to rip me off,” Lyle exclaimed in mock horror. Yule quickly explained, “I’d like you to explain the whole situation to me again. I can consider giving you another sum of money if you can match the testimony with my man.” Hearing that, Lyle shook his head. He had no time to waste on them. “Forget it, your rough actions have ruined my appetite. I don't want your money. Please don't follow me anymore. It’s annoying.” After saying this, Lyle walked away. Lyle seemed very unhappy as if he was done talking to them. Yule scowled at his disrespect. “Don't you think you've gone too far?” Yule frowned and said unhappily as Lyle tried to leave. Lyle did not look back. He d
“What’s inside the coffin?” “Who knows? I heard someone calling for help inside. Why don't we open it and take a look?” The fawns were not yet fully grown, so they were simple-minded. Hearing someone calling for help, they wanted to lend a helping hand. They had taken on human form, so they could move easily. The coffin was sealed to prevent someone from opening it from the inside, but the effect was almost non-existent once someone opened the coffin from the outside. The fawns broke the seal, and Akash jumped out. He looked around in a panic and was surprised to see that his rescuers were a bunch of fawns. “Thank you. I’m a member of the elf family. You may come to us if you need any help in the future. I’ll do my best to help you.” After saying this, Akash vanished in front of the fawns. He had very important things to attend to. The little fawns never expected that they would rescue such a beautiful elf. They were puzzled and wondered what was going on. “Was that the
Everyone returned to the topic at hand and forgot about everything else. Akash was expectant, waiting to hear what everyone had to say. “According to our investigation, the fish creatures became so arrogant because they colluded with the demons. They wouldn’t have been strong enough to deal with us if the demons hadn’t given them the power to do so.” Philip was surprised to hear about the demons’ involvement again. It was simply ridiculous that everything was related to demons. “The demons are quite ambitious. It seems that they want to conquer this land like the humans before them, so they keep making trouble. I think we should get rid of them!” The chief was very angry. He hated the demons from the bottom of his heart and wished they would disappear. Akash’s expression changed. Although he had an opinion about the other party's words, he did not dare to express his thoughts due to his current identity. “Akash, tell me what you think about this matter. I believe that the
“I’m surprised that they’d attack me first. I thought they’d be more interested in Philip.” Loony looked at Akash thoughtfully. He knew that Akash was behind this. Akash returned his gaze silently, acting as if it had nothing to do with him. He would never admit his identity. “Ugh, that thing is so ugly.” Marina covered her mouth in a panic. Although they had a high tolerance level, these toad-like monsters were simply gross. Marina's father wanted to take this opportunity to see Philip's strength, but Philip did not take action. Loony dealt with the other party, and they found out that Loony was human. “I remember hearing a legend about a lunatic. Are you the lunatic mentioned?” Marina was puzzled by Loony’s identity. Everything Loony did proved that he was human, but none of them could do any of it. “It's said that only humans and demons can practice voodoo, which is what I think you did just now. Philip can’t possibly be involved with the demons, so if I’m not mi
Philip shrugged and said calmly, “As usual, we take one step at a time. If they use force, we’ll do the same. Don’t worry about it. Even though they're strong, it’s not as if we can’t do anything about it.” Marina's heart skipped a beat at the sight of Philip's confidence, her feelings indescribable. Marina's father was heartbroken at this scene. He wished he could slap his daughter to wake her up. “Hmph, there's no point in saying empty words. Anyone can take one step at a time. When the enemy shows up at the door, that’s the only thing we can do.” Everyone noticed the sarcasm behind the words, and Marina was shocked. She did not expect that her father would be so unreasonable as to pick a fight at this time. Before anyone could say anything else, the door was kicked open, and Philip was surprised to see the person who entered the door. Philip did not set up a barrier in this place, so anyone could enter and exit freely. Everyone was on guard against the newcomer because
Loony and Akash were beating about the bush, trying to intimidate each other. However, Loony uncovered the mystery first. Akash coughed violently to conceal his shock and returned to his room after excusing himself, clearly going to inform the people behind him. “See, he exposed himself after just a few words. It's quite interesting,” Loony said with a smile, not acting like a lunatic at all. Philip had to marvel at his acting skills. Everyone always treated him as a lunatic, which saved him a lot of trouble. Akash returned to the room and tried to contact the people behind him, but he could not find anyone for some reason. He looked around anxiously, wondering what he should do next. “Damn it. At worst, I’ll have to deal with him.” Akash decided to deal with Loony. In his opinion, Loony should have been greatly weakened after being imprisoned for so many years and was no match for himself. Everything would be under his command if he could find a way to control Loony. Thi
Aslan and the others were aware of Akash’s fake identity too. No one wanted to interact with him, but they had to greet him to avoid exposing themselves. At the same time, Marina arrived with her father and other family members. To be on the safe side, they did not meet Philip collectively but left some backup plans. “Marina, as your father, I have to remind you that I won’t treat him kindly if I find out that he’s not a good person,” the chief said solemnly. He felt a little uneasy at the thought of meeting his daughter’s crush. He wondered if Philip had a good character, how many people he had in his family, and whether he was worthy of his precious daughter. However, even if Philip was worthy, he would not agree to their relationship. After all, they belonged to two different species. What if they gave birth to a fish creature? The beautiful merfolk would never allow those ugly creatures to tarnish their reputation. “Dad, you think too much. I have no ideas about him
The call between the two ended after a brief exchange. Rodney smiled in disdain. He was aware of his mission, but he had no idea that the Loony he was looking for was right next to him. He only knew that Philip was quite strong and had many treasures on hand. “Everything will be different once I get the elf water. At that time, this bunch of stupid guys…” Although the demons could not comprehend the book very well, they understood the general content written on it. They needed elf water if they wanted to get rid of the identity of demons. Although it was harmful to them, it could purify their bodies in combination with certain spells. Unfortunately, they just found the secret and finally found the elves when they realized that someone had wiped out the elves, which was infuriating. Rodney found Philip because he knew that Philip had the elf water. Loony was his second mission.… The night passed quickly, and Philip and Loony were chatting so exuberantly that they forgot
“I have to take responsibility for it. Demons were not so strong back then. They became so powerful because of my book. That book can be considered a divine artifact, and its contents have a great effect on all creatures.” Philip was interested in Loony’s explanation. He wanted to know why the book had such a powerful effect. “Everyone always calls me a lunatic. Indeed, I do go crazy from time to time, but I never lose my awareness. I know what I should do and what the consequences will be if the book falls into the wrong hands.” Loony looked at Philip earnestly, clearly asking for a favor. In his opinion, only Philip could save him. “That book is the first half, and its content is difficult to understand. Even I could only comprehend a little. I hope you can help me get it back. If you succeed, I’ll give you the second half. It’d be best if you can practice it.” To be honest, Philip was not in favor of this suggestion. Practicing such things might affect his path and bring h
“Is that person human?” the chief grasped the key point and asked the crucial question. Everyone nodded. They knew Philip’s identity and did not care that he was human. They saw him as a friend. “I entered Philip’s world by chance, and he helped me return. If it weren't for him, those things would probably have killed me by now. They're very strong, indeed.” Marina felt a lingering fear when she recalled past events. She knew how powerful those ugly creatures were. The fish creatures had become very strong for some reason as if they could overwhelm the merfolk at any time. “He opened the passage to this world, sent me back, and restored our people back to health. We would've died if not for his help. Philip is our friend, not foe,” Marina defended Philip. The chief was heartbroken to hear his daughter defend a man like this. His precious daughter had grown up or she would not have said such a thing. “Okay, in that case, I look forward to seeing this young man named Philip
