Chapter 399 Don't Touch Me



Two days passed, and Ash didn't find any evidence against Beldette.

It's not because the two sisters of Yilin are so clean, but mainly because there are a lot of high-paying jobs named for them in the job list, with an astonishing hourly wage of 30 Bei points. They can earn 300 Bei points by working 10 hours a day, and they can redeem themselves and get out of the hell pit after working for a few days.

This wave, this wave is the alienation of capital to people. While Ash was rubbing the statue vigorously, he looked at his savings happily.

At dinner time, Ash saw Igula eating with Harvey tonight, and there was no red-haired angel Anfil beside him. Igula had been dining with Anfil these past two days, and he had specially chosen a two-person seat. Unless Ash was willing to move a baby chair and sit next to him, it would be impossible for him to get in their couple seat.

Not wanting to miss the opportunity, Ash immediately sat down next to the Trickster with his plate in hand. "Hey, Igula is so depressed tonight that he has to eat with Harvey?"

The dark-skinned necromancer glanced at Ash and said, "...Ash, you came at the right time. We were just discussing you."

"What are you discussing about me?"

"Let's discuss your future." Harvey said, "I will become the chief medical examiner of Monferra, Iguerra will become the mayor's secretary of Monferra, and you will become the unemployed single father of Monferra who collects welfare and sucks the blood of his daughter. We will all have a bright future."

"Although I don't mind receiving relief money, I'm not from the Blood Saint Clan. Why should I suck Liz's blood?"

"Don't you think Liz has the potential to be a child star?"

"Hmm..." Ash pondered, "Liz does have a talent for acting. According to the Gospel's educational concept of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, it's not a bad idea to let her get involved in the acting industry. But I won't suck my daughter's blood. I will help her invest in opening a store with the money she earns, and then give her a lot of property when she grows up!"

"Oh~" Igula nodded: "That means you plan to suck Liz's blood dry. Even the Blood Saints are not as cruel as you."

"They said they would invest it in business!"

"For someone who can even start and close a cult, saying that your investment vision and management ability are zero is already deceiving shareholders."

"But how did you discuss your livelihood in Monferra?" Ash asked, "Shouldn't it be that Igula, you stay, and the two of us leave?"

"How did you two leave?" Igula asked, "Have you collected enough money to redeem yourself?"

"We're not all together yet, but don't we still have you?" Ash said affectionately, "When you marry Anfil and take charge of the big consortium, I won't ask you to give me any benefits, but it should be okay to cancel our contract, right?"

Igula glanced at the hand on Ash's shoulder, gently brushed it away, and said slowly: "Let's not talk about the fact that after I became Beldette's man, you have changed from a 'taunt follower that can be used' to a 'sheep that can be sheared'. Even if I suddenly got sick and wanted to do good things, a contract is a contract. Unless one party violates the contract, the contract cannot be terminated."

"What!" Ash was shocked. "I thought you would definitely help us - damn, I couldn't help but buy some products from Efaline today. What if An Nan and the others ask about my savings?!"

"Serves you right," Harvey said. "I held back when Elaine pulled out a perfect human skeleton."

"You might as well consult Liz for questions like this." Igula said, "You two have similar IQs, so she should be able to give you proper advice."

"Wait, Igula, you will definitely help the brothers when you become successful, right?" Ash said, "We are cellmates who are loyal to each other!"

"Who killed each other right after the prison break?"

"We are still comrades who have achieved great success!"

"You have escaped from Gerard's sword twice. Do you have to show off like that?"

“Moreover, we are friends who cherish each other!”

"Do you have a mutual sympathy with him?" Igula pointed at the necromancer coldly.

"In short!" Ash changed the subject: "Brother Igula, you must not forget to support me!"

"Why?"

"Because we still owe each other a favor!"

"Wow." Harvey said in surprise, "Ash, you actually have such a hidden card!"

"That's right!" Ash held his head high and laughed, "Back when we were in Broken Lake, in order to get Igula to join my great prison escape plan, I signed a wishing contract with him and used my wishes to force him to come up with ideas for me, so..."

"Please let me owe you one more wish!"

"So you owe Igula a wish..." Harvey curled his lips.

"I'm full, take your time." Igula ignored Ash and picked up the plate to leave.

"Igula, wait..."

Bang!

Igula slapped away Ash's outstretched hand, looked down at him condescendingly, and said calmly:

"Don't touch me."

"This is the situation," Harvey said, "I told Alice about it, and she felt embarrassed for Ash."

In Ash's bedroom, the funeral office staff gathered again.

"Aunt Borgin treated Daddy like this!" Liz pouted indignantly, "Daddy, don't cry. We won't play with Aunt Borgin anymore!"

"Don't move." Ash pushed Liz in front of the dressing table and carefully wiped the water off her hair.

"Is Mr. Borgin such an impatient person?" Panji pondered, "You haven't even officially joined Beldate yet, but you're so impatient to break up with Mr. Harvey and the others?"

"Once he's successful, he starts to talk nonsense." An Nan shrugged. "But you can also say he's very smart. After all, you two are pure negative assets. It's of no benefit to him to associate with you. Instead of continuing to increase the sunk cost on you, it's better to sell off your friendship as soon as possible."

"Yash, do you regret not ruining their date with us the night before?" An Nan turned to look at Ash: "Is this a backlash now?"

There was no displeasure on Ash's face. He said slowly, "I just feel that Igula is a little strange..."

"What's so strange about that?" An Nan propped up his chin and smiled. "Bojin is going ashore this time, so naturally he doesn't need us, his old colleagues in the sea. Everything in this world can betray you. Even the magic spirits may sneak away, let alone a trickster?"

"Is it my illusion?" Ash suddenly said, "I feel like you, An Nan, don't seem to care much about Igula's defection."

"Who said that? I care a lot about it, okay?" An Nan said, "I'm even thinking about using the honey trap."

"You? Honey trap?" Everyone was stunned, and Ash immediately shook his head: "No, no, absolutely not!"

"Why not?" An Nan blinked, raised the corners of his mouth and looked at Yanxu.

"Because you are doomed to lose!"

"Why would I lose? I'm in the top ten of Azula's beauty list, how could I be inferior to that damn dwarf's sister?"

"Yes, you do have the same level of beauty as Anfil." Ash spread his hands and said, "But the problem is that you are ugly at heart."

When An Nan rushed over to play with Ash again, the necromancer said slowly: "The Trickster is indeed strange."

Banji: “Why?”

"A fraudster will not take the initiative to cut off communication with others. This is not in line with his habits." Harvey said, "Just like no matter how much I hate my enemy, I will not refuse to deal with his body."

"Could it be that Aunt Borgin feels that she won't have to put up with you anymore, so she's completely exposing her true character?" Liz guessed, "Didn't Aunt Borgin always say that chatting with Uncle Harvey is like sleeping in a coffin?"

"Hmm..." Harvey asked doubtfully, "But... isn't this a positive metaphor?"

Liz looked at Ash in the mirror and suddenly asked, "Dad, do you think Aunt Borgin really abandoned us?"

"I don't think this kind of thing is useful..." Ash combed and dried Liz's hair with a hair dryer: "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, everyone is getting married but I'm still single..."

"So what do you think?" Liz hesitated for a moment, then decided to say what the White Queen asked her to say: "I don't think Aunt Borgin will abandon us."

If we were to ask who knows Igula best in the funeral office, it would not be Annan or Yaxiu, but the White Queen who had negotiated with Igula before.

"Why do you think so?" The purple moth beside him laughed, "Is it because he can braid your hair into pretty braids?"

Liz ignored the ill-intentioned aunt and looked at Ash in the mirror seriously: "He values ​​you more than you think."

Ash lowered his eyelids: "I don't really care if Igula abandons us."

In front of everyone's stunned gazes, Ash slowly said, "I have seen three forms of Igula. The first is a trickster who speaks sweet words. This form means he wants to cheat something out of you. The second is a trickster who will deliberately suppress you. This form means he wants to use you."

"And the third one is the one I just met, the fraudster who distanced himself from us by thousands of miles."

Liz asked, "What does this mean?"

"I don't know." Ash said, "I only saw him acting on his own, and he was forcing himself."

Everyone was silent for a while, and An Nan said, "So you still believe in him now? Are you just wasting your trust like this?"

"No." Ash shook his head slowly: "Trust should of course be entrusted to those who are worthy."

After everyone went back to rest, Liz still stayed in the room. After arriving in Beldette, Liz became more and more clingy, but Ash thought that it was because she was in a strange environment and had to work every day, so it was understandable that she liked to act like a spoiled child. Anyway, Ash would enter the virtual world soon, so he just let her go.

"Can you please stop putting your feet on my belly tonight?"

"Then daddy will hold me in his arms while I sleep!" Liz raised her hands excitedly.

Ash felt that it was feasible. With Liz's amazing sleeping posture, she would roll away smoothly in less than an hour, so her arms wouldn't get numb from sleeping. So he allowed her to lean on his arms and then opened the "Sorcerer's Manual" to start "Exploring the Virtual Realm".

As his consciousness connected to the virtual world, Ash slowly opened his eyes and found himself holding the witch in his arms.

Diya opened her eyes and found herself sitting on the viewer. When she looked up, she saw the viewer's blurry face!

"Wow!"

The two screamed and quickly separated, looking back at the same time - Sword Girl was sitting in the back seat of the sports car, and she saw everything that happened between them!

"Sword Princess, that was an accident when I entered the virtual realm just now—" Diya hurriedly explained, "It really has nothing to do with me. Even if there is a mistake, it is the fault of the viewer—"

"We have arrived in the Xingtang area tonight, right?"

Sword Princess didn't seem to care at all about what they were doing just now, and said calmly: "Don't waste time, quickly follow the map to plan the best route to search for resources, we are short of time tonight."

Ash and Diya blinked and nodded quickly. Diya carefully sat next to Sword Princess, but Sword Princess seemed to have no interest in her and kept looking at the countercurrent golden rain outside.

Soon, Ash drove to a gemstone resource point, where a Overlord Slashing Dragon and a group of Dog-headed Dragons were stationed. Although this was a group of monsters that could kill most magicians, for the three of them, even without armed troops, it would be easy to annihilate them and confiscate their property.

After a brilliant victory, Ash and the others first collected gem materials that their magic spirits could eat. Ash found a 'sharp gem', which was the best food for the sword magic spirits, so he went to find Sword Princess: "Sword Princess, you——"

Bang!

Sonia was the first to arrive, but she immediately slapped Ash's hand away from her shoulder, stared at him with wide eyes, and said calmly:

"Don't touch me."
