Defying the Fate of Beheading

Chapter 190: Became the Goddess of Commerce's Divine Favor? (6000 words)


If there's any special region in the world that needs the Moonlight Cat Cat Group to personally handle, it would most likely be the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm.

Louis looked at Alice:

"Who's the mission issuer?"

Alice pointed to the sky.

Louis understood:

"He would even specifically issue a mission through the Adventurer Guild?"

Alice shook her head: "In most cases, he wouldn't. From the surface, this mission is just an ordinary investigation mission."

Louis furrowed his brows:

"Then how do you know it was him who issued the mission?"

Alice curved her lips into an alluring smile, lightly licked her red lips, and said:

"Don't forget, the Ashford Family is the war hound. Since they are hounds, of course, they will listen to the hunter."

"We have a special way of distinguishing between us and His Majesty."

Indeed.

In the Ense Empire, if there is someone who can represent heaven, that would undoubtedly be Emperor Old Deng.

The only one who could command the war hound is the hunter behind it.

Old Deng, you can't hide anymore!

"If that's the case, then it all makes sense."

He thought that Tino City was just cleaned up by Beatrice, and now it has been infiltrated again.

But he couldn't quite understand.

With Emperor Old Deng's situation, if there were dangerous creatures in the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm, he'd just wipe them out.

The destructive Black Sun is like heaven to the creatures of the Fallen Shadow.

"So, it's like with Master Rogen, an existence that can't be killed directly due to some special circumstance?"

Louis suddenly felt a headache.

He was quite reluctant to take on such a mission.

Emperor Old Deng was plotting something behind the scenes and wouldn't tell him.

If he could match Old Deng, he'd shout out, "Riddler, get out of Gotham City."

Alice flashed a slightly bloody smile:

"You better not think about refusing; this mission is more assigned to you than the Moonlight Cat Cat Group."

Louis sighed: "It's because I'm pretty sure it's assigned to me that I don't want to go."

Suddenly, Alice grabbed Louis by the sleeve:

"Do you think you can escape? Come with me and complete the mission honestly. Haven't you noticed you've been slacking off lately?"

Louis coughed.

He understood what Alice meant.

Previously, he had been frantically raising his profession level to deal with a probable intense admirer of Beatrice.

Then, preparing for future enemies like the Demon King Helmer.

Little did he know that his short-term goal of handling rivals was so easily shattered.

His growth in strength was so rapid that it far exceeded his peers.

No cheats, even geniuses couldn't match him.

So, he was left with only the long-term goal of improving his professional skills.

It's well-known that if you only have long-term goals and lack subdivided short-term goals, people tend to slack off.

Plus, ahem, he thoroughly enjoyed being doted upon by the proud princess during this honeymoon trip...

"I've been ensnared by indulgence, so lazy I've become, from today I quit drinking!"

Alice's lip twitched, only this guy could matter-of-factly say something so shameless.

"Why don't you quit lust too?" she retorted.

Louis was startled: "You've never tasted it, yet you comment so easily."

Alice snorted: "Even if I tasted it, I wouldn't slack off like you."

She raised a middle finger at Louis.

But shortly after, Alice froze for a moment, then furiously said:

"You insulted me!"

"How did I insult you?"

Alice glared at Louis through gritted teeth.

He couldn't say it out loud.

Meanwhile, nearby, Olivia, who had been silently munching away, looked up:

"How did he insult you?"

With those words, Alice became even more unwilling to speak.

What could she say?

Say Louis implied she "hasn't tasted it"?

So unladylike.

Wait, am I even a lady?

Well, never mind!

Let's unleash!

Alice sneered: "Who knows who has the succubus bloodline but can't accomplish the succubus's task."

"After such a long time, your relationship with Beatrice only progressed a tiny bit."

"No way, no way, did someone actually become a pure-hearted succubus?"

Louis was furious.

Slander!

She slandered me!

"What, not convinced?" Louis said mockingly, "At least I have someone, do you? Have you tasted it?"

Alice was angry: "At least I don't get lost in it like you!"

Louis said: "People who have never tasted would think like that!"

Alice sneered: "Not convinced? Let me taste, I want to see if someone's heart is as tough as his mouth!"

"Stop!" The little swan interrupted their conversation.

They realized the little swan was watching from the side.

The little swan widened her eyes at them:

"You're being indecent!"

Alice coughed.

Only then did she realize her words were a bit too much.

Louis also remembered that his sister-in-law was sitting beside him!

Not good to duel in trash talk with Alice.

After all, the little swan is a bit naive and might take it seriously.

Most of her intellect was absorbed by the black swan.

Alice said with a headache:

"Honestly, if it really is some kind of ghost, for you, wouldn't that be the easiest thing to handle?"

Louis gave her a look:

"Only if I can beat it, who can guarantee how strong that ghost is."
