Book 2: Chapter 12: I have a Perfect Plan (2)

“B-Buy you?”

“Yes.” Carol nodded, “Lilith, you were able to pay for so much food before and were even able to pull out a Ninth Level scroll, so you must be rich. Therefore, you can just go to the auction and buy me.” Carol looked proud as if she had said something a genius would say.

“...You are really something...”

“Hey? Lilith, your expression looks terrible... what are you doing... uwaaa...”

I wrapped a hand around Carol’s neck and twisted it, “You really took a fancy to my money, huh!”

“Uwaa... how can it be! It... it’s because... I realized... how smart... beautiful... and strong... Lilith is... T-That’s why... uwaa... let me go... c-... can’t... breath...”

“Hmph!”Rêađ latest chapters on no/v/e/l(b)in(.)com

I only let go of Carol when I began to see the whites of her eyes. After she was finally freed, Carol slumped to the ground while panting heavily and sucking in air with long breaths.

“Wow, I almost died Lilith. Don’t you know that you should be gentle towards women?”

I answered with a sneer, “Being gentle towards women is only applicable to young ladies who are sweet and innocent, you are neither, you little beggar.”

As soon as I called her a beggar, Carol spoke up, “I’m not a beggar! I just got cheated out of my money, so I couldn’t eat and had nowhere to live... I have not even been able to take a bath in seven days! Wow... Lilith, you’re adding insult to injury again... it’s too much!!”

Seven days? You’ve become like this in just seven days?

I looked at Carol, who was rolling about on the ground and asked, “Are you sure that you became like this by not bathing for just seven days? Why do I feel like you haven’t taken a bath for a month?”

“Wow...” Carol paused suddenly, her eyes darting around as if she was avoiding something.

Huh? Weird.

I knocked Carol’s pig head and yelled, “Be Honest!”

“Uuuu... I didn’t have time to think of that...”

“That is to say ...” I looked at Carol and felt like I was about to go crazy due to anger, “the detailed, thorough, and absolutely workable super invincible plan you took three days to devise is only half-finished? ”

“Awawawa... Lilith, don’t get angry ...” Carol tried to run from me, but she had already retreated to a corner so she couldn’t move away any further. She could only look at me with a voice full of confidence, “Actually, the half-finished plan is already pretty awesome, we would be able to rescue the slaves in any case.”

“Awesome your head! You’re still light-years from rescuing the slaves.”

“Then what are you saying we should do?” Carol shrewdly asked me with a pout.

I sighed and spoke again after thinking about it for a moment, “for now we’ll start implementing it according to your plan, and then wing it once we get more detailed information.”

“Oh.”

But this works in our favor, I honestly can’t feel at ease if the most important part was planned out by Carol’s low IQ. I might not be able to devise a perfect plan now but if we are stuck in a worse situation in the end then I can just use a saint-level scroll and blow up the auction house.

Regardless, I still have the teleportation scroll as a life-saving measure.

I kept feeling a bit uneasy at heart as if I have overlooked some important matter. I knew something was amiss but couldn’t put my finger on it.

I looked at Carol who was still drawing circles on the ground and cursing me under her breath, I spoke to her in a threatening tone, “You better wish that this infiltration plan is implemented well... if something goes wrong...”

I smiled slowly showing a cruel expression, “I’ll really sell you to the auction house...”

Carol quickly nodded in horror.

“I... I’ll follow Boss Lilith’s commands to the letter.”
