The Whispering Verses Chapter 2507: Debt collection commission
Chapter 2508 Debt Collection Entrustment
After the dull vibration, the elevator finally carried Shade to the bottom of the sea cliff. He opened the door and walked out of the small room at the bottom of the cliff, and came to the rocks outside the door.
After the Battle of Moon Bay, the weather has been sunny throughout the Moon Bay area. Now standing here, looking at the blue sky and the harbor with countless ships sailing, if he didn't know what he was going to face next, Shade felt that he would actually be in a better mood.
The person who invited him did not appear immediately, so Shade had no choice but to throw the perfume bottle filled with luminous pink essence far away to the sea outside the reef.
Pink drew a perfect parabola in the air, but the moment before entering the water, a hand stretched out from the rippling seawater held it.
The arms were slender and white, and even felt as smooth as silk in the sun. The water droplets began to slide down from the pink nails down the naked arm. The ticking sound should not be very loud, but every drop of water fell, as if it could directly hit Shade's heart.
It looks like a white flesh snake, but it also looks like the pink and white lotus root in the lotus pond. Shade, who knew what he was going to face, was not very surprised. He just suppressed the charming thoughts instinctively arising in his heart and was very grateful that the wonderful night he spent with Vanessa last night allowed him to stay focused at the moment.
"Hello, interesting soul~"
As the arm holding the perfume bottle lowered, the head of a beautiful woman with wet black hair on her cheek slowly emerged from the water.
Bright purple eyes looked at Shade with a smile, and the fat-red birthmark between his eyebrows became even more beautiful after being rolled over by water drops.
So Shade understood that even if he spent the night with the girls in advance, there would be no resistance against this "mermaid".
"Why did you find me here so early?"
Her appearance this time did not let the thick fog cover the area, so when the chin of the beautiful head was slightly raised to look at Shade, the face under the clear sky looked brighter than before.
"It seems I didn't find it, it was your bottle that vibrated by itself. If I understand correctly, you are urging me to come over and see you."
Xia De said.
Bo~
Slender fingers opened the bottle cork with one hand, then she raised her head towards the sun and poured out the luminous pink essence in the bottle.
The pink lips opened slightly, and the liquid entered the mouth of the head accurately. For some reason, she slightly stuck out the tip of her tongue, and Xia De tried to look away from the pink tongue.
Xia De did not see any swallowing movements from her, but when she looked at him again, there was nothing in her mouth:
"I'm not urging you, I just saw that you haven't been here since the war, so I miss you a little."
The voice is soft and pleasant, and the purple eyes have a charming smile:
"It tastes very good, I like this gift."
The empty bottle was carried back to the reef by the tide, but Shade did not pick it up immediately:
"Before I get down to business, please allow me to express my gratitude. Whether it's the [Gluttony] thing or Luvia and the others saying that you blocked an attack from the [Dragon Eater], this has helped me a lot."
The beautiful face is still looking at him on the shore with a smile:
"So, now you know how good I am to you, right?"
"this"
Xia De doesn’t really want to answer this question:
"Then according to our previous agreement, you helped me. Although Yuewan was destroyed, it also ushered in a new life, so please tell me what needs to be done."
The purple eyes in the water did not immediately answer Shade's question. She stared at Shade's eyes and blinked a few times before she asked softly:
"Look at your nervous look, you know what? I prefer the way you pretend to be a hero, even I am aroused by you~"
Laughed softly, and flicked the sea water next to his head with his right hand:
"I hope you can go to a place and help me collect a debt."
"Well, when I was in Randall Valley, a demon said something similar, and then he died."
Xia De felt his heartbeat speeding up. He was reluctant to admit that the appearance of the head in the water was so in line with his aesthetics:
“Although Goethe, the Stone Mirror Demon, is old, he cannot be older than you, and you are much more powerful than it.
If you really have any debt, you can collect it yourself at any time. You don't look like you like to make contracts with humans to restrict yourself. ”
The right hand that reached out of the water covered her mouth and chuckled. Of course, before the laughter ended, she licked her right index finger again:
"Of course I can go by myself under normal circumstances, but don't I have you?"
The voice was very weak, but the purple eyes were not pleading, but longing.
Xia De shook his head quickly:
"So, this matter has something to do with the old gods? I just finished a battle with gods, and I don't want to do it again in a short time."
"Don't worry, how could I be willing to let you cause danger?"
She smiled again:
"There will be no battle between gods this time. Do you want to hear a story?"
"I guess this is another story about love, right?"
"I already regret not betting with you on the type of this story. This time you guessed wrong. It's not love, but something as vulgar as love, wealth and life."
She seemed to be reminiscing about something, and the sea below her head was rippling in circles, as if there were really a girl's legs swaying under the sea.
Xia De always reminds himself that everything is an illusion, "desire" does not need to be remembered, and "desire" has more than one pair of legs:
"Wealth? Someone found you because of greed, and wanted you to give wealth and be willing to pay the price. And you agreed to the deal, but when you were about to collect the bill, you discovered that the other party had played a trick, so you came to It’s still a devil’s story for me.”
"The story I am about to tell is much simpler than you think, and it is not ancient."
She looked at Xia De with a smile:
"That's the story of the Sixth Age. Someone made a sacrifice to me through a ritual, hoping that I would give him enough wealth to reverse the situation, and let me help him defeat his enemies at this time.
I satisfied his desires, whether it was the desire for wealth or the desire for life, I satisfied him. But unfortunately, he escaped and hid in a place that even I couldn't reach. Yes, it's that simple. ”
She did not ask Shade if he wanted to accept the commission, and Shade had no intention of refusing. "Desire" helped him, of course he must keep his word:
"Hidden, right? Can you give me more clues? For example, the name of that person, and what price he paid for you to take action. In my opinion, you should not be the kind of casual person. Just respond to the call."
The eyes of the woman in the water are watery:
"Yes, you know me very well, very well. Only when you call will I respond immediately."
The slender red tongue licked the lower lip again:
"I know what you are thinking. That name is certainly not Shad Hamilton, nor is it anyone else you are familiar with. You answered his call because he paid a high price. Of course, there are some historical reasons for this.
In short, the man was willing to give everything he had, even his three children. He had to admit that his wife was lucky because she died young enough to not be included in the deal. ”
"So those three children"
"If you help me recover this debt, I can keep the three children. This is your privilege."
The right hand retracted under the water, and then the left hand dripping with water stretched out again, holding his face:
"All the wealth I gave him can be yours, but everything else he has is mine."
"I can guess that there must be something very valuable in that person. But if he doesn't even have a name, where am I going to find him?"
Purple eyes blinked:
"It will not be easy for you to win this divine battle, so I will not disclose the specific location so that you can rest. Remember this surname 'Bennet', there is no need to look for it, you will definitely know it later encountered.
Of course, there is no need to worry about the danger of the other party. He is just good at hiding and not very powerful. Especially to you, he is not much different from ordinary people. As for how to recognize him, don't worry, you will understand when the time comes. ”
Although she basically didn’t give any additional information except her last name, Shade still nodded:
"'Bennet', right? There is no such surname among my acquaintances. It sounds like a southerner's surname. Okay, I remember it. But is there a time limit for this task?"
A more unpredictable smile appeared on the beautiful and seductive face, but the raised corners of the lips were still so charming:
"You want to ask about the time? No, this mission has no time limit, after all"
Covering her mouth with her left hand, she pretended to look around in panic, and then smiled herself:
"There are some things that I can't tell you now. Go on vacation. Heroes of justice also need a vacation."
As he spoke, he looked at the empty bottle lying on the edge of the reef:
"There are only two days after the end of the God War. You can fill the empty bottle to this extent. I guess your holiday life must be very busy. Those girls are really lucky to meet you, at least Their desires in a certain aspect were completely satisfied."
Xia De only knew that this task was definitely not as simple as she said.
But since "Desire" himself said that this commission has no time limit, Shade doesn't have to clear up all the doubts immediately. He remembered the incident but had no intention of starting an investigation immediately.
The Battle of Moon Bay is over. No matter what happens, he needs to take a rest first.
However, if he has any other questions about this commission, he can come to Count Darmanin's mansion at any time and ask this "mermaid" about the situation. Just as Shade said when he first saw her in Moon Bay, she would stay in this city for a long time and only occasionally appear in other corners of the material world.
For this reason, she welcomes Shade to visit her at any time for any matter.
