Interview with the protagonist:
Q1: What's your secret to becoming the Black Organization's ace assassin?
Jiang Xia...
Chapter 11 Come and have some murderous energy and ask for monthly votes ()
The more the ghost baby targets a person, the less effort it will take to activate the skill, and the more optional lines and actions will be available.
But if it is an enemy, it will take a lot of energy and the lines that can be driven will be very monotonous.
The ghost fetus also discovered his new abilities.
It was very satisfied, its eyes sparkled and it whimpered happily.
After signing the contract, it can only use skills when driven by Jiang Xia.
It's a good thing that this is the case, otherwise Jiang Xia would suspect that this ghost would sneak over to Yoko Kinoshita one day and find a handsome male actor to be her's partner.
…
Jiang Xia remained silent for more than ten seconds regarding the skill.
Finally decided to pick a name to calm my nerves.
To put it simply, let's call it a forced confession.
This skill seems useless at first glance.
However, if enough materials can be found in the future to upgrade the ghost fetus, its skills will also be upgraded accordingly.
For example, currently "forced confession" can only be done by moving one's mouth, and only by doubling the consumption of murderous aura can other confession actions be made.
After the upgrade, maybe it will become "forced hand holding", "forced hug", "forced kiss", "forced @*$%;*" and so on with just a little murderous aura...
As long as it can make the enemy's movements uncontrollable, it is very useful.
In general, it's not too bad. If used properly, it might work wonders...
…
And with the ghost fetus, you can initially construct the "puppet".
Although the ghost baby's body can only make the body of a child, it can definitely be used if used well.
Jiang Xia simply comforted himself and left the basement with the newly acquired ghost fetus.
After signing the contract, the psychic's control over ghosts will be greatly enhanced.
But correspondingly, I also have to take care of meals, upgrades...all sorts of things.
It is roughly equivalent to adopting a serf who is obedient but requires food, shelter and education.
Normally, the ghost fetus can be stored in the mark on the heart, where there is an unscientific space.
All the murderous aura that Jiang Xia usually gathered was stored inside.
But at the moment, Jiang Xia doesn’t have many ghosts in his hands... to be exact, there is only one.
So he didn't take the ghost fetus in.
Anyway, this ghost baby is small and easy to carry. It is better to leave it outside, so that when you need it, you don't have to worry about taking it out.
…
After the contract, the ghost baby's attitude towards Jiang Xia became much better than before, and he felt close to him whenever he saw him.
It climbed up Jiang Xia's arm all the way to his shoulder, rubbing its face against his. It looked like its attitude was not much different from that towards Kinoshita Yoko.
However, rights and obligations usually come together.
Jiang Xia was just thinking about it when he saw the ghost baby poking his face, then patting his belly, giving a hint.
——It’s hungry.
Jiang Xia: “…”
It’s troublesome to raise a ghost.
But you still have to raise it.
The contracted ghost fetus will have a natural bonus to its favorable impression of the psychic.
In other words, even if the psychic is a bit bad, they will forgive their master with tears.
But if the psychic takes advantage of his favor and becomes a tyrant, treating the animals too harshly, and at the same time has many ghost babies... then it would be very easy to get into trouble.
Once the ghost babies are abused to the point of losing control, the psychic's fate is often extremely tragic - tragic enough to be printed in textbooks and passed down forever as a negative example.
In short, most psychics are very friendly to their own ghosts.
This is also basic professional ethics.
…
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia reluctantly touched his chest. Through his clothes, he reluctantly pulled out a faint black line.
This is one of the murderous intentions stolen from Gin.
He had been saving it and was reluctant to use it - even compared with his previous life when resources were relatively abundant, this was considered high-quality murderous aura.
Jiang Xia had originally pulled out a whole strand.
But after looking at the ghost baby's small body and thinking that there was not much stock left, he was very family-oriented so he tore the murderous aura in the middle and put away half of it.
After that, Jiang Xia stared at the remaining half, thought for a moment, slowly reached out his hand, tore the remaining half open, and then put the other half away.
The ghost baby silently watched the murderous aura getting shorter and shorter: "..."
Just now when Jiang Xia asked it whether it wanted to sign the contract, perhaps... it shouldn't have nodded so quickly?
However, it is too late to regret now.
——Since they had a contract to maintain their relationship, Guitai not only did not think Jiang Xia was being excessive, but was very considerate of him.
With tears in its eyes, it patted Jiang Xia's shoulder, indicating that it would work hard to pick up the murderous aura and bring it back to support its master in the future, so that he wouldn't have to be so frugal.
Jiang Xia was very pleased and tore it one last time.
Then he picked up that small piece of murderous aura and prepared to feed it to the ghost.
Of course you can’t feed it directly, as that would be difficult to digest.
Jiang Xia returned to the first floor, found his coat, took out the cigarette box from it, and knocked out a cigarette.
Although this thing is rolled into the shape of a cigarette, the filler is not tobacco, but dried foam from several plants.
In the psychic world, this thing has a scientific name, called ghost mint.
Jiang Xia once suspected that the person who invented it had a cat at home, and he felt that he had evidence.
However, although the name sounds like catnip, ghost mint itself has no attraction to ghosts.
It is just very good at absorbing the negative emotions captured by psychics - such as the murderous aura in Jiang Xia's hand.
Gin is produced with very high quality.
The best part is that it actually has a hint of alcohol in it - a sign of high quality.
Jiang Xia put the torn murderous aura next to the ghost mint. It quickly melted into the smoke.
Then Jiang Xia lit the cigarette.
As smoke rose, the ghost baby crawled onto the back of his hand, held the cigarette butt, and took a deep breath of happiness.
Jiang Xia can actually eat something like murderous aura.
It is not to satisfy hunger, but to replenish energy.
But for now, he has a good work and rest schedule, has not used any skills, and has plenty of energy.
So, although he was a little greedy, he didn't compete with the ghost baby for food.
…
I don’t know if it’s because the ghost baby is too hungry or because it lacks murderous aura.
It leaned over and inhaled for a few seconds, and most of the cigarette had burned out.
Jiang Xia shook a long piece of ash into the ashtray.
Just after shaking, the last bit of ghost mint mixed with murderous aura was also sucked up.
Jiang Xia: “…”
This ghost seems to be able to eat a lot.
He let go of his hand worriedly and threw the extinguished cigarette butt into the ashtray.
The ghost baby touched his belly and looked like he wanted another one.
Jiang Xia checked its condition and found that it had recovered from the blow of shattered ideals and was now in good health.
So I decisively turned away, pretending that I didn't understand the ghost's hint, and went to the bathroom with the ashtray to rinse it.
