Chapter 147 Hikaru’s thinking...
Chapter 147 Hikaru's thinking...
She suddenly felt that if she didn't think too much, things would become more interesting.
Laylah suddenly felt more comfortable and quickly stabilized her emotions.
"Ah! Hikaru… you are such a pervert, now you are extending your fangs to this poor girl?"
Hikaru heard Laylah's words and frowned, feeling a bit confused.
'What the hell? She was shy just now, she didn't even look straight at me.'
'Why has her attitude changed so much now?'
'Sigh. Women are such strange creatures, their habits are never the same. The speed at which they change their nature is uncanny.'
Hikaru shook his head and said: "You haven't paid the rent yet, Laylah. I'm just asking for Aiko's rent money."
"I'm not a philanthropist either, so I can't let you live here happily without obtaining any benefits."
"At least… you must show that you are useful. If you are useless, please leave this place, understand?"
Laylah smirked contemptuously: "Hahaha… look what the owner of the Noack mansion is saying. Hikaru, how much rent is enough?
Hikaru shrugged: "It depends on your performance."
"So… what about Velys?" Laylah glanced at Velys, her eyes filled with teasing: "Does she also need to pay rent?"
"Velys is my girlfriend, she doesn't need to pay rent."
Hearing Hikaru's words, Velys blushed and bowed her head, a smile full of satisfaction could be seen on her face. Since she sat next to Hikaru, she reached out to hold his hand.
Even though this action took place under the table, Aiko and Laylah knew what they were doing with just a glance.
"So…" Laylah smirked: "Being your girlfriend also means being able to stay here for free?"
"Sorry…" Hikaru shrugged: "I already have a girlfriend, there are no more slots for you and Aiko."
"So what do you want me to do? Secret lover? Do you want to play such an exciting game?" After Laylah finished speaking, she licked her lips, that action alone made her look extremely sexy and seductive.
Hikaru sighed: "Sorry... I don't like very old women."
"You are wrong…" This time, Laylah was not angry at all, on the contrary she said: "Older women have a lot of experience, which is not something a small girl like Velys can have. Do you understand?"
Laylah smiled and winked at Hikaru, as if she was trying to seduce him in front of Velys.
However, Velys was not angry at all, on the contrary, she smiled and said: "Hikaru, Laylah has accepted you. It's great, from now on we will be a family."
Hikaru: "…"
He felt that Velys' thinking was very skewed... but... he liked the way Velys thought.
'Sigh, Velys, the more you do this, the more I can't abandon you.'
Aiko suddenly raised her head slightly to look at everyone, she felt that the atmosphere around Hikaru, Velys and Laylah was very warm and cheerful.
She seemed to dream of integrating herself into that atmosphere.
Aiko looked at them with admiration and wondered: 'If... if I agreed with Hikaru, could I become a member of his family?'
…
After finishing breakfast, Hikaru sat on the sofa, and checked the system store.
Today, the store once again refreshed. Of course, the item appraisal card was still inside, so only 9 new items appeared.
Among them, there were a few interesting items that caught Hikaru's attention. However, he only had a few luck points, and it was not enough to buy anything including power evolution medicine.
…
Name: Hikaru
Villain points: 185,200
Unused points: 3,000
Power: F+ (Perfect Humanity)
…
Even though he received 75,000 luck points from completing the quest, he used all of them.
Now, his villain points were quite high but the points he needed to purchase things remained 3,000.
"Sigh, there are a lot of villain points but they don't have too much use. The luck points needed to buy items are too few."
"If this continues, I won't be able to find an item that will help me carry Velys."
Hikaru sighed, feeling a bit hopeless.
Finding a card that would allow him to take Velys with him was almost impossible.
Even if he finds that card, whether he has enough luck points to buy it is still a mystery.
However, according to Rika, the value of that card will definitely not be lower than 10,000,000 luck points.
Hikaru knew that the number was enormous, and he felt that it was impossible to earn 10,000,000 luck points.
However, Hikaru knew that this amount was still relatively cheap to bring a person from one world to another.
He sighed, he felt that the road ahead was still too long. He was just afraid that even when he completed his mission in this world, he still wouldn't have enough luck points to buy a card to help Velys follow him.
"Next problem…" Hikaru muttered: "Does she want to follow me?"
He spoke while looking at the ceiling thinking. Although he thought that Velys would definitely follow him, the problem was that they would go to another world.
Not to another city, or country, but to another world.
This means that Velys will never be able to return to this world again.
That's why he was worried that Velys wouldn't agree to follow him to another world.
Hikaru shook his head, he didn't know what the future held, maybe... he should respect Velys' decision no matter what it was.
He sighed and began checking out new items in the system store. If he couldn't buy it, at least, with the luck points he had, he could store them for 7 days.
Hikaru thoroughly went through them and after a long time, 2 items caught his interest.
…
Name: Neko costume
Tier: E
Description: The person wearing this outfit will receive all the special abilities of the Neko - Beast clan. Their Power will be increased, especially speed.
Price: 300,000 luck points.
…
Name: The spear of revenge
Tier: E+
Description: Carrying the power of hatred. The person who uses it will be subjected to heavy psychological pressure from the previous owners of this spear.
Price: 150,000 lucky points.
…
Even though there were only a few short descriptions, Hikaru knew that these two items were not simple.
After all, their Tier was Tier E. If they were not powerful then they wouldn't be able to reach that Tier.
However… Hikaru noticed something about the 'Neko Costume'. Even though the name of the item is 'Neko costume', however, only two cat ears and one cat tail were on display.
Hikaru didn't know how to use it, but he suddenly remembered the maid outfit Velys wore yesterday.
"If Velys wore cat ears and a tail…"
Hikaru imagined Velys wearing a maid outfit, with two cat ears on her head, and a cat tail on her back, and immediately felt interested.
"Awww! Too cute…"
[Pervert..]
"Huh! Rika, you don't understand the charm of cat ears and a cat tail. 300,000 lucky points, I hope I can buy it."
"What are you mumbling about?"
Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind. Hikaru turned his head and saw Laylah standing behind him, wearing a loose tracksuit.
"Are you going out?" Hikaru asked.
"Heh?! Aren't you going hunting today?"
Hikaru shrugged: "I have something to do today, you can do what you want."
"Don't talk like you can control me." Laylah smiled and said, she came closer and gently touched his cheek with her index finger.
"If you feel you don't need my control, you can act freely. I don't need to worry about you suddenly entering the cycle of your destiny."
"Heh?! It seems… you are protecting me, I should thank you, right?" Laylah smiled and licked her lips, her expression extremely seductive.
"As long as you pay enough for the rent, it's fine."
"Huh! Stingy.."
"This isn't the first time you've said this."
Hikaru finished speaking and stood up, then left the villa. He didn't care where Laylah would go, as she would return here anyway.
…
Elsewhere…
In the private room, Yue lay on the bed, her body shivering a bit from the cold even though she was covered with a thick cotton blanket.
"It's so cold…" Yue said tremblingly: "What is the temperature now?"
She tried to raise her head and look out the window. Even though it was very dark outside, compared to yesterday, today was even darker.
However, Yue could still see that it was snowing heavily outside.
"Snow?! Could it be that... the temperature has dropped below 0 degrees Celsius?
"What do I need to do now? This place… the heater can't be used, I can't use hot water either…"
Yue felt a bit desperate. At this time, she thought about using candles for warmth. However, she immediately rejected this thought.
You must know that in modern times, everything was powered by electricity, that's why almost no one kept candles in their house.
Yue was the same, if she uses candles for warmth then the next time she will have to live in darkness.
Suddenly, she remembered the young man in the next room, yes, it was Rayze.
"Maybe… he will help me. But…" Yue felt very scared, the previous images once again appeared in her mind.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
A knock on the door suddenly rang out. Yue was startled. She wrapped herself in a thick coat, put on slippers to keep her feet warm, then hurried out of the room and went to the main door.
At this time, Rayze's voice rang out: "Yue, I left some food and blankets outside, remember to go out and get them later. I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back after dark."
"Yue… remember, don't open the door no matter what happens. Yue, don't worry, I will protect you."
Rayze finished speaking and left without waiting for Yue to respond. He knew that Yue was still shocked from witnessing him kill someone.
He also respected her, after all that is the normal response of a weak girl.
After Rayze left, Yue breathed a sigh of relief. She stood near the door, waited more than 10 minutes before slowly opening the door.
"AAA!!"
