Chapter 4: Hill's "Pain"
"Karma ......" came the voice of devouring in his head. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"What's wrong?" I unzipped up my shirt and straightened my outfit in front of the mirror.
"I didn't expect... You look so ...... Boundless ......" voice sounded a little detached.
Longevity without borders? I looked closely at the face in the mirror...... Does the upper age limit have anything to do with looks?
The lines on both sides do not have the fortitude that men develop when they become adults, but retain the softness of childhood; A large handful of pale bangs covered the forehead, and even the bridge of the nose, revealing only the small tip of the nose, and the rest of the half-length white hair hung down on both sides, covering the ears; The two thin eyebrows extend straight to the forehead; The blood-red pupils shone slightly, and the equally pale eyelashes were as long as a girl's; The bloodless lips pursed slightly, full of different ...... Tempt?
Not...... Although it doesn't look very masculine...... But does that have anything to do with longevity?
"Forget it...... I guess you don't understand it either, so go out and show your Hill, Hideyoshi. He sighed and uttered a strange term.
"Oh." I pushed open the wooden door of the fitting room and walked out, and Hill, who heard the noise, turned around and suddenly saw a light in his eyes.
"Not bad," Hill smiled, "it looks better in a different outfit." β
Indeed, the one I am wearing now is much better than the tattered test subject uniform that I brought out of the woods - both in terms of quality and appearance.
He wore a white shirt on his upper body, a black trench coat on the outside, and a circle of snow-white fluff sewn into the neckline, and white stripes of different widths were inlaid on the cuffs, zippers, etc., and the hem was worn behind him, gently fluttering with the breeze; He wears a pair of black trousers with white stripes on his lower body; With a pair of pure black high-top bowler shoes on my feet, and finally a big sword behind my back, it finally made my neutral appearance show a heroic spirit.
"Hostess, check out." Hill snapped his fingers.
Hearing the voice, it was an aunt about forty years old, and when the aunt saw Hill, she first looked up and down without a trace, and then said with a smile: "Ouch, isn't this Miss Magician?" How do you come to a small shop like ours? β
"Knowing you're all dressed in style, come and buy clothes for the lovely servant." Hill replied with a smile.
"Servants?" My aunt glanced at me, "Miss is really a top student, right?" Even the minions aren't the kind of stupid wolves. β
"That's it." For some reason, although Hill smiled more happily, I seemed to see a flash of sadness in her eyes?
"How much do you have to pay? Go ahead. β
ββββββββββ
"Four silver coins...... Four silver coins ...... "Hill walked down the street with blank eyes like a low-class ghoul, and if she still wore that cloak, she would probably be mistaken for a ghost who had not been reincarnated, right?"
Since ancient times, Noah's continent has used round coins made of gold, silver, and copper as the currency used in circulation, and the ratio between them is one to one hundred, that is, one gold coin is equivalent to one hundred silver coins. - By the way, Hill's monthly stipend from school is four silver coins, and her daily expenses are ...... It's exactly four silver coins, too.
"I'm going to run out of food for the next month, what should I do?" Hill suddenly turned around and grabbed my shoulders, shaking them in a small, high-frequency manner, "You tell me what to do?" β
"Earn ...... Make hay? "My brain was shaken to a slurch, and it took a few seconds to squeeze out those two words.
"Make money?" Ciel stopped her mischievous hand, pinched her chin and began to think, "This ideaβ"
"It's nonsense!" Hill started her shaking hair again, "You're telling me how to make it?!" β
"Okay......" After a long time, it seemed that he was tired of shaking, and Ciel gasped and stopped moving, "Let's go back first, I hope the teacher and his wolf are still there." β
ββββββββββ
"Roaring ......" In the small room, the wolf on the opposite side lay on the ground tightly and let out a low roar.
I gently grasped the hilt of my sword in both hands, relaxing my body and preparing for the next attack.
The wolf's body pressed down again in an instant, although the amplitude was extremely small, but it was still clearly visible to me whose eyesight was higher than that of ordinary people, so I carried the big sword and swung it diagonally upward.
"Boom!" The wolf's body slammed into the ceiling again, then fell with a muffled thud.
"Seventy-two." He reported a number, "Well, it's pretty durable." β
"Xiaoye, what are you doing......" Hill's bored voice came from behind him, "Why don't you eat it quickly?" You don't have any weird fetishes, right? For example, you need to toss the food before eating. β
"If he can withstand a hundred full blows without falling, I'm going to take him as a minion." I said the proposal to eat.
"Human undead mages coexist with the undead, and the undead have pro-undead creature minions, I have to say, this network is quite interesting." Old man Ellene's comments came slowly.
"Eighty-four." I slapped it away again, looking into its eyesβangry, unwilling, and something, but absolutely not giving in.
β¦β¦ Sure enough, this is the essence of intelligent beings...... If I can't see this, I might as well kill it.
"Karma, you can turn it into a descendant undead." Aren's voice rang out again, "Just bite it, and it will die of corpse poisoning, and then have a chance to become a wolf-type ghoul." β
"But I've seen my kind," I responded as I swung my sword, "clumsy and slow-moving, newborn ghouls only have basic combat effectiveness in groups of more than ten." β
"Is it really good for you to rate your race like that...... Ciel's sigh helplessly, "but if you didn't have the white hair and bloody eyes and sharp teeth that are unique to ghouls, I guess everyone would think of you as a normal human, right?" β
"One hundred!" I can imagine a grinning smile, "Hey, hey...... It's time to hit hard! β
I threw my sword away, my right hand gripped the roof of the wolf as it struck again, and a hook with my left hand made it close its gaping mouth.
Tossing him aside, I stretched out my right hand, palm facing it, and the whisper in my mouth resonated with the shouting in my head: "Master-servant contract!" β
The golden lines start from the palm of the hand and spread and lay in the air, forming a circular circle.
"Concluded!" As the order was given, the circle slowly levitated forward, penetrating the body of the wolf and then dissipating, but a golden imprint appeared on the wolf's forehead.
Then, with a "bang" of the wolf's body, it turned into a black point of light and burst open, dissipating into the air.
When the conclusion was settled, I turned to see Alleyne and Ciel standing in the stands on the second floor, looking the same - all with the same expressions as if they had seen a dragon hatch out of an egg.
"I really didn't expect it......," Ellen shook his head with a wry smile, "I thought you were going to beat it until you were convinced, but I didn't expect that with your spiritual power, you could directly mold it into a master-servant contract......"
"Okay, Hill has already told me, she's in financial distress right now, isn't she?" Alleyne cleared his throat, "I have a plan for this. β
"Hill can give me a part-time job, which is allowed by the school rules. You can take your wolves to the forest to hunt, with your skills, there should be no accidents, and ghouls can increase their strength by eating a lot of fresh corpses, how about it? β
"Okay." I nodded in agreement.
