Chapter 663 This is going to suck
"Will they really not find out?" Shen Yue asked again, her fingers drawing circles on Liam's chest and her naked body tightly clinging to his.
"Of all the things you are worried about this? Do you not care why I killed them?" Liam chuckled, kissing the girl's forehead.
"Not really." Shen Yue closed her eyes and inched closer as if she was hinting that she wanted more kisses. "We had two run-ins with those guys so far, remember? I don't really care if scum like that lived or not."
"You have changed a lot." Liam smiled. "When I first moved here, the girl next door was a kind, good girl. Now…"
"What! I am still a nice person!"
Liam kissed the pouting lips, pulling the girl closer again.
He had spent the past two hours with her, among other things talking to her about the various things that happened in the elven lands and also about the events that had transpired earlier tonight.
He did not really need the break as he had stayed inside the SUV the whole time, his minions doing all the dirty work but he still took the couple of hours to relax a little.
The burden he had carried all through his last life had ended today as if it was nothing. It felt surreal.
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Yue poked his cheek playfully.
Liam sighed a little and smiled. "I am thinking about what to do next." He then turned toward her, attacking her for the fourth time in a row.
Shen Yue laughed and pushed him away with her hands, despite the fact that her legs were tightly wrapped around him, indicating the opposite.
It was rare to catch the guy in this mood when he was not serious and single-minded about powering up, so she wanted to help him take his mind off of things.
Moaning sounds soon filled the room, and when they were done, it looked like Liam finally managed to tire her out. The woman did not even bother washing up. She fell asleep on the dirty sheets.
With a smile, he covered the enticing beauty lying naked on his bed with a blanket and stepped away. When he saw her peaceful smile, his face turned solemn once more.
He needed to do more, a lot more, if he wanted to keep living this peaceful life. Starting with this training.
Liam wondered what the old elf was going to teach him.
This would be the first time he was going to formally learn something from a master. He couldn't help but feel a little excited, even if it was from that nasty old man who almost killed him for no reason.
Just the thought of the guy gave Liam a headache. He had a feeling that this was not going to be easy. Taking a deep breath, he looked at Shen Yue one more time before stepping back into the game capsule.
Liam's world darkened before it brightened up again, and he found himself inside the elven commoner's city. "I guess it's time to start."
He went to the teleportation portals near the big tree and picked the one for the royal city. He then walked in long strides to the familiar residence where he had cleaned the ground with his face several times.
Of course, as soon as he arrived at the entrance and walked in through the giant gates, once again, a shocking scene was awaiting him.
The fearsome powerful old elf was lounging in a rocking chair in the palace gardens and on his lap was a small fox happily lying with her body sprawled out and belly getting rubbed.
Naturally, this was in addition to the things that she was munching. One item looked like a berry, the next one looked like a flower, and the next one even looked like a gemstone.
"What in the name of… " Liam stood in a daze and watched the scene unfolding in front of him in disbelief.
After a few seconds, the duo finally noticed his presence, or rather, acknowledged that he was also there, though only barely.
"Master…" One happy fox cooed, and the other party simply grunted in annoyance. "You are back?" The guy then went back to feeding the fox as if Liam did not exist. Clearly, he had his priorities.
However, Liam did not care about these things. Instead, he was grateful that the old elf had managed to cure Luna when he had not been able to figure out what was wrong with her.
Moreover, Luna was able to talk now?
The fox was no longer simply communicating with him through their mental connection. She was actually talking. This meant that the elf simply did not cure her. He also helped her to further grow?
Perhaps this old elf was the key to triggering her spirit beast evolution. Without this, the fox will not be able to come out into the real world with him when the tutorial shuts down.
"No. Not even I know how to do that." The old guy grunted again.
"What?" Liam was startled.
"I said I don't know how to trigger the spirit beast evolution. Oh. Don't look so shocked. I can read it on your face, you lazy brat."
Liam awkwardly coughed and did not say anything. It looked like it was just his wishful thinking, wanting the elf to have all the answers he needed.
"Fool, you don't even understand the precious creature that you are bonded to. A celestial beast is a powerful companion. She has more potential than you. She has a bloodline purer than yours, and her growth can be exponential."
"You will never be able to reach the heights that she can easily grow to, but all that requires effort. You need to nurture her carefully and not treat her like this, like a random rodent."
"You are incompetent, lacking, and selfish!"
The old elf did not stop there and continued to berate Liam to his heart's content. Of course, ending the session by once again crushing him down on the ground.
"This is going to suck." Liam spat out the dirt and stones from his mouth.
