Even though Granite had joined Philip, he was just an ordinary subordinate. His life was not worth mentioning, so why would anyone do anything to him? “Maybe they’ll try to pry information from you or use you to threaten me.” Philip had no idea what they would do, but these people were not easy to deal with. Custard nodded in agreement. “Come to think of it, I think I saw a tattoo on someone's hand before I passed out. It was a design of a withered flower!” Custard exclaimed as if this thought suddenly crossed his mind. Philip smiled. Since Custard could recall some details, it would be easier for them to determine the identities of his attackers. At this moment, there were more than Alton’s people in Cosmo City. Niffler brought Scarlet to Cosmo City too. Although he was immune to Scarlet’s charm, it could enhance their relationship. As soon as he entered the city gates, he saw the overwhelming flyers of Treasure House, and Scarlet became sullen. Although Scarlet no lon
“It's 500 energy stones,” the attendant stated the price. Scarlet turned to Niffler. She had no money to spare. Niffler looked at Scarlet doubtfully but finally chose to trust her. After buying the bag of powder for 500 energy stones, Niffler left with Scarlet. Seeing Scarlet's stealthy look, Niffler said, “This thing better be useful or else…” Seeing Niffler’s scowl, Scarlet quickly explained, “This product is exclusive to Bijou Parlor. Only professionals know about it! If you mix this powder in water, the person who drinks it will lose energy for a while. "Once you give this to Philip, he’ll completely be at your mercy!” Scarlet said happily. This thing was her trump card. Niffler looked at Scarlet with the powder in his hand, surprised by her words. “If this thing is really that useful, all credit will belong to you, and I’ll make you my queen by then.” Niffler promised Scarlet, and the two pictured their beautiful future. Niffler had never shown his face to Phil
“Other than that, I can’t help feeling that something is wrong lately. It seems like something dangerous is about to happen. Do you think the beasts in the forest are about to escape?” Although Figo was weak and stupid, his senses were quite keen. However, his words never had any influence. No one would believe the words of an idiot, including his mother. “Don't think so much. If the beasts can attack our city so easily, why would people be living here?" Most people in the Larson family scoffed at that statement, doubting that the beasts would break through the barrier and enter the human world. Figo felt uneasy, so he packed his things and got ready to leave. He awkwardly gave his mother a random excuse. “Mom, I'm going to Comet City and Cosmo City to see if I can find any opportunities!” If his mother had chosen to believe him, he would not have left so impulsively. Now that no one was willing to believe him, he could only find a hiding place quickly. They could die if th
Aslan had never been good at lying. He was prideful and would never compromise with humans easily. His father knew Aslan's character very well. Since Aslan was willing to vouch for this place, he had to believe him. “Don’t worry. If you ever think that what I’ve said is untrue, you’re welcome to give me a beating at any time!” Aslan had been living among humans for a while and could come up with some good retorts. Even Philip wanted to give him a beating sometimes. “Speak properly!” Aslan approached Philip with a bright smile on his face. He was happy that he could bring his family over so smoothly. “Philip, I thought the old hermits at home would never leave with me, but I managed to persuade them so easily!” Aslan said smugly. He knew that his family members would never trust him so easily, but everyone decided to follow him after he explained the situation to them. Although Aslan was puzzled, he brought them back happily. Philip knew they would not have done this for n
Khan was surprised to see such a straightforward man. He had always hated the roundabout way of human interaction, so he was pleasantly surprised to find Philip otherwise. He did not hate humans in general, just those who had twisted personalities and evil intentions. Those people were a great danger to monster beasts. Many people liked to hunt monster beasts for fun or kill to get their inner cores to improve their strength. There were many ways to improve one’s strength, and killing monster beasts to get their inner cores was the worst option. However, he was also aware that beasts killed each other too, just like humans. The friends Aslan brought to escort them back were pretty good, and Khan was happy. After seeing Philip, he felt that maybe things were different from what he imagined. Philip’s mannerisms surprised Khan. There were many people in their group. Fortunately, Philip had many houses too. “Let’s get you settled down first. The villa behind us is for you,” P
The kid frowned at the sight of Khan’s frantic look. “What's so precious about these pills? If you want them, just take them. Don’t disturb us from having our class.” His understatement completely destroyed Khan's outlook on life. “What’s wrong with kids nowadays? They don’t even care for precious pills like these and treat them like jelly beans. Hehe, since you want to give them to me, then don’t regret it!” He carefully put all the pills into his pocket, afraid of ruining them. Aslan could hardly hold his head up. He thought having such a family was something to be proud of, but these people were simply embarrassing him right now. “Everyone, please behave yourselves and don’t embarrass me!” Aslan rushed out in exasperation, trying to stop his father. Khan smacked him, almost knocking him into the wall. “Dad, you can tell me if you want more pills. I can give you as many as you want! You’re embarrassing me by taking the pills from these kids!” Aslan took out a handfu
Aslan only recalled that he had a storage ring after Khan mentioned it. “Do you like this storage ring very much?” Aslan glanced at his father curiously. “Dad, don’t you even have a storage ring after being around for so many years? What a failure. I got one not long after I wandered out!” Aslan mocked his father. The others laughed at Aslan’s provocation. Khan clenched his fists, wishing he could beat up this unruly son. Aslan was simply asking for a beating for saying such things in public. Aslan did not show him any respect as the king of the monster beasts! “Dad, if you like it, let me give you one each.” Aslan expressed his opinion before Khan could speak. No one could call themselves a member of the villa without this standard equipment. Besides, such things were just a byproduct of the kids’ daily practice, and they could have as many as they wanted. Even if they wore one on each finger, there would be enough storage rings to go around. Aslan even felt he could b
Sure enough, the other monster beasts were caught by horror and disbelief after getting the rings too. They checked their rings with pride, excited to get a storage ring. This thing was so rare that they had not seen one before, but they received one so effortlessly now. Khan excitedly grabbed Aslan, who was caught off guard and almost stumbled. “Tell me how you got these rings!” Khan wished he could get into Aslan's mind and find out the truth. Aslan shrugged and said, “The kids made the rings, and that’s their teacher.” Aslan pointed to Philip, leaving Khan in disbelief. He never dreamed that these things belonged to Philip. “How can you own so many storage rings at such a young age, and how can your people make these things?” Khan asked in confusion. Khan was not interested in the smithing technique. After all, monster beasts were unable to make pills or weapons by nature. He was just curious about Philip’s background which allowed him to develop his force so lavishl
