Alas, my Substitute Doll, gone just like that!
And it also left me with a bump on my head!”
Dean McKenzie was cursing all the way as he walked over, rubbing his head.
He was still holding the now-ruined Substitute Doll.
While looking distressed, he also comforted himself.
“But it’s okay, this doll was a Level 40 item anyways, and I was Level 45 when I used it, so it was barely viable.
once I level up to 60, or even reach the Third-turn, this thing would be useless anyway.
Trading a Level 40 item for a Level 80 boss isn’t a bad deal.”
Though he claimed it wasn’t a bad deal, Dean still felt a hint of sadness.
His heart hurt.
Obviously, this self-consolation was ineffective. But when he saw the glimmers leaking from Avery Evans, his tears instantly dried up and his speed increased dramatically.
He rushed towards Avery Evans.
From Dean’s point of view, he was headed towards the glimmers left by Avery Evans’ explosion. But from Elisa’s point of view, Dean was charging straight at her.
Ehsa’s face turned red as she gathered the courage to get up and meet Dean.
But she found that Dean had ‘zipped’ past her.
Within a few steps, he was beside Avery Evans, first using Extraction, then picking up all the glimmers left by Avery. As he did so, he watched Elisa’s every move with a wary eye.
He wondered, where did this maiden come from, and was she after his glimmers?
Meanwhile, Elisa turned her head stiffly, and their eyes met for a moment.
This momentary glance left Dean stunned.
The fleeting glimpse revealed an incredibly beautiful face, but before Dean could take a closer look, Elisa suddenly remembered that she was showing Dean her ‘ugliest’ appearance.
She shrieked in surprise.
She instinctively covered her face with her hands, and quickly morphed back into her Pigman form.
The sudden transformation, in Dean’s eyes, was akin to a beauty queen turning into an ugly hag.
Beneath the stunning beauty previously witnessed, the Third Princess’s Pigman form now appeared uglier than ever.
It took Dean quite a while to react.
“How did you morph into that figure just now?”
Dean’s eyebrows furrowed. If he wasn’t holding the glimmers, he would have reached for Elisa’s throat and forced her to transform back.
The Third Princess bowed her head, her face filled with shyness and self-doubt, she didn’t dare to speak.
However, her maid, a pig woman, saved her, “The Third Princess’s mother was human, so she can change into human form.
But the Third Princess thinks she looks a little ugly in her human form, so she doesn’t like to use it?”
Dean was shocked, “You call that a little ugly?”
The Third Princess felt even more ashamed.
“Sorry, Mr. McKenzie, I didn’t mean to disgust you!”
No, you don’t look ugly, you look really pretty!”
“You don’t have to comfort me, I know how ugly I look, don’t worry, I won’t
ever show up in front of you looking like that.”
No, I truly think you look beautiful in your human form!”
Dean was earnest in trying to clear up the misunderstanding, but it seemed the Third Princess had no self-confidence in her human appearance.
They misunderstood Dean’s explanation as a testament of his kindness.
While expressing her gratitude for Dean’s comfort, she assured him, “Don’t worry, I won’t ask you to marry me again.”
The fact was, Dean really thought she looked pretty in her human form.
If the Third Princess had proposed in her human form, Dean felt he wouldn’t have been able to reject her within three turns.
Shamelessly, Dean even asked back, “So, about our engagement…”
‘■Rest assured, now that the Becky family and the eldest princess are dead, and so is my father, the matter is resolved, and I won’t bother you again!”
“No, what I meant was…”
Dean wanted to say more, but he saw the sadness on the Third Princess’s face when she mentioned her father’s death, and he swallowed his words.
The topic ended there, and Elisa’s gaze fell on the chaotic Pink City after Avery’s death, “Mr. McKenzie, thank you so much for saving my life. Can you rest in the City Lord’s Mansion for a while? After I’ve sorted out the aftermath, I’ll come to express my gratitude.”
“Alright, off you go!”
Dean glanced at Pink City behind him. Admittedly, ruling Pink City would bring massive benefits.
But if Dean really did that, he’d probably be on a slippery slope to falling into the Demon Path, or even becoming a Fallen Professional like those from the Bloody Church.
Dean suddenly remembered Anthony.
At once, all sorts of wild ideas left his mind.
In a sense, at this point in time, Anthony was the moral compass in Dean’s heart.
He prevented Dean from losing himself in the pursuit of power and becoming a slave to power and wealth.
Then, under the escort of a pig woman, Dean headed towards the City Lord’s Mansion.
After Dean left, the princess picked up her long sword and stepped into Pink City as well.
On Dean’s side, once he returned to the City Lord’s Mansion, the first thing he did was to open all five of Avery Evans’ glimmers.
[You have opened 5 glimmers!]
[You have gained 250 Gold Coins!]
[You have obtained the Skill Books [Shape-shifting Skill] [Small Meteorite Technique]!]
[You have obtained the [Pighead Clan’s Apprentice Wizard Template]
(Excellent)!]
[You have obtained the [Wizard’s Scholar Hat] (Gold) (Unidentified)!]
Five items, all of them valuable.
Dean’s gaze first landed on the two skills.
Skill: Shape-shifting Skill
Description: Transform the target into any shape you want
Learning Condition: Mastery of Shapeshifting Knowledge
Skill: Small Meteorite Technique
Description: Summon a meteorite to attack a target
Learning Condition: Mastery of Flame-based Magic Knowledge, Mastery of Meteorite Knowledge
When Dean looked at the two skills, he was afraid that they might have profession restrictions.
The good news was, there were no profession restrictions. The bad news, though, was that it seemed the restrictions were even stricter.
Dean had no idea how to fulfill these two conditions.
Dean had no choice but to put the skill books aside and take out the two gold-grade items he had recently acquired..
