"Fine, believe it or not! If it weren't for your strong spiritual sense, I wouldn't bother talking to you all this time."
"These are the conditions for now. I'll tell you about the others when I think of them."
"By the way, how is Liz? Is that poor little guy still alive?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Fan quickly realized why she was asking that.
"She's a lovely, lively little girl, but she's blind. What's in her eyes? It's so different from the nine elements I know."
"Still alive? Did you learn magic?" Ignoring Luo Fan's question, Lilith continued to press.
"Hmm, in less than a year, she's almost caught up with Ellie! She even made a contract with a little angel." Luo Fan was a little curious, but didn't think too much about the transformation issue for the time being.
"Indeed, only this method can keep her alive. As for the elements in her eyes, I can only tell you that there are shadows of laws within them."
"Laws? Something like rules?"
"Pretty much. Some bad guys got it into her eyes through sacrifice, don't try to trigger it. When I found her, she was barely alive."
"By the way, don't let her come into contact with anyone above the rank of Archmage in the future. But forget it, I probably can't hide it for long anyway; those old guys are too obsessed. They're all dreaming of advancing further, but it's not that easy."
Luo Fan was stunned again. Seriously? These girls all seemed to have incredibly powerful backgrounds. The Snow Maiden was a descendant of a god, and Liss held the power of law within her eyes. And Ai Li? She had such a powerful mother!
"Just wondering, what level are you at now?"
"I'm just one step away from becoming a Saint Magister!" Lilith said proudly.
"How far is this step?" Luo Fan inexplicably wanted to be cheeky.
"Heh, maybe he'll break through tomorrow. You brat, take good care of my daughter, or I'll never forgive you!"
"As for the Claire family, I didn't expect her to pass the buck to me, but they're probably terrified of me now. By the way, little guy, tell that coward the information I mentioned to you before; it'll definitely make things more interesting."
"Also, little slime, I really didn't lie to you about the conditions for transforming!"
The phantom gradually faded.
"Hey, say hello to your daughter before you leave!"
"No, I can't afford to lose face like that. I'll come back for you once I break through." The voice gradually faded away, and the illusory figure also disappeared.
"Oh no, I forgot to ask about the inscriptions, the Snow Maiden's advancement, and what to do about Ries. Why did that old witch run off so fast!"
Go back to research? Could it be that she studied slimes before? Luo Fan suddenly thought of that booklet; after all, what decent person would write such a diary?
Shaking off his chaotic thoughts, Luo Fan began to take action, cleaning up the mud monsters in the water and reclaiming the energy that belonged to him.
As for the residue left in the water, he couldn't be bothered with it; he always had to leave something for them.
Transformation is so difficult! And that old witch is really unreliable!
Night had fallen, and Claire, having regained his senses, had already returned to the manor, no longer lingering there. Unbeknownst to him, the very being he feared most had just been there.
Ellie, working with the mercenary group, began clearing out the magical beasts in the forest that had been infected by the lake. None of them were high level; none were above level 35.
They are very agile, making them somewhat troublesome to kill.
Fortunately, the personnel were well-prepared and managed to surround and annihilate a wave of monsters in the entire forest, with only a few escaping.
By daybreak, the mercenary group members had already gathered together and started a fire to cook.
"What? You saw my mother again?" Ellie asked, looking at Luo Fan who had been struggling in the lake for a long time before returning.
"Yeah, my mother-in-law is so nice, she's completely fooled me. One day I'll go to the Demon Sealing Tower to find her!" Luo Fan said through gritted teeth.
"So, she arranged all this stuff?"
"Yes, if it were ordinary dark element, it would have been lost long ago. Don't worry, she's not blaming you. Who told that Marquis Blair to be so despicable?"
"Forget it, let's not talk about him anymore, it's disgusting to even think about. Didn't my mother say anything to me?"
"She was a little embarrassed to see you after learning that you knew about the past. However, she emphasized that you should treat me well, and that she had already accepted me as a good son-in-law."
"Really? I don't believe it!"
"Ellie, why would I lie to you! You can ask her yourself if you don't believe me." Luo Fan was getting a little anxious. He had been tricked by the old witch, and he was determined to get revenge on her precious daughter.
"Hehe, I'll go again sometime. Let's pack up and head back in a bit!"
"Oh. I might go into a deep sleep again in a bit, so don't bother me if you need anything!" With that, Luo Fan recalled all his clones except for the one from the alien, gave a few instructions, and then fell asleep. He was going to study the inscription carefully.
Just then, Daisy, who had rested for a while, came over. "What happened to Luo Fan? Is the lake clean now?"
"The monsters have all been eliminated. He just ate something bad; he'll be fine once he gets back."
"oh."
Xiaoxue mumbled a few words behind her, but no one could understand what she was saying.
Just as Ellie was about to return, she saw Claire arriving with a large group of people.
"My dear niece, please come back! Our family really needs you." The Marquis's elder brother, who was also the head of the manor, ran over and tried to hug Ellie, but she easily dodged him.
"Please have some self-respect! I have no connection with the Claire family anymore. Now that the monster has been killed, we'll return to turn in the quest. Marquis, please send someone to confirm this!"
Upon hearing this news, the Marquis, who was following behind, immediately dispatched men to investigate. Since the possibility of Ellie's return was gone, at least the family's future development shouldn't be disrupted.
"Ellie, please come back!" Behind the master, many people pleaded with red eyes and tears streaming down their faces.
Ellie is incredibly wealthy. If we take away her assets, our family will take off!
"Tifa!" Ellie called out, and several members of the Legion surrounded them, blocking the others who were trying to come over.
"Aili, you shameless thing. The family has raised you for so long, and this is how you treat us?" The patriarch's expression changed instantly.
"You at least need to pay back the money your family has spent on you over the years, otherwise..."
The butler stepped forward.
"Otherwise, we will go to Sacred Heart City to accuse you of your crimes and ruin your reputation!"
"Return the money? What a joke! Wasn't that money all left by my mother? Besides, aren't you the head of the family? Didn't you see that even the Marquis didn't say anything?"
"I, the head of the family, demand that she pay back the money!" the patriarch roared.
“As expected, this title is useless. You still have to listen to your elder brother.” Ellie said coldly, looking at the Marquis beside her.
"These two gold coins should be enough to repay the kindness shown to me over the years. My lord, I hope that when my mother returns, you will meet again."
Ellie tossed over two purple-gold coins, then turned and left. Tifa would handle the rest.
"No! Ellie, hand over all your property now!" someone roared.
"You slut, hand over your property to us!" A barrage of insults rang out.
Daisy hurled an ice pillar at them. "If you keep babbling, don't blame me for being impolite. Butler, if anyone else spouts nonsense, kill them on sight. I'll take responsibility for the consequences!"
"Yes, Miss!" The butler stepped forward and took out a staff.
The other side fell silent instantly.
Within fifteen minutes, the men sent out returned, confirming that no trace of the monster had been found, not even in the water.
With their mission accomplished, the mercenary group slowly departed.
"Ellie, why did you give them two purple gold coins? Those bastards, not a single one of them is any good!"
“Luo Fan made me do this; he tampered with the gold coins.”
"Oh, okay. Ellie, you looked so cool just now!"
