Chapter 239 The System's Final Condition
Chapter 239 The System's Final Condition
Hours had passed since Lucian first began teaching Lily how to use the Thousand-Faces Skill.
Despite her propensity to cause chaos and mischievous personality, she was a diligent learner.
Many times, Lucian even wondered if Fenwick did not have the ability to teach.
From the initial stemless Pink Begonia to a limbless, wingless 'butterfly, Lily had transformed forty-seven times. With each transformation, her progress was clear to see.
And now, standing in front of him, was the fruit of her hard work — a beautiful and equally cute young girl.
Pink hair fell to her waist and then curled outwards. Her pink eyes were large and bright. Her white legs were wrapped in pink stockings that extended just above her knees, and her arms, now shaped perfectly, were adorned with frilly pink arm warmers.
Her overall appearance was like that of a porcelain doll.
"You've done it." Lucian praised her.
"Hehe~!" Lily gave a delighted twirl, causing the edges of her frilly pink dress to flare up as she spun. Creamy-white thighs greeted Lucian's eyes, delighting him.@@@@
'Thighs.' He subtly licked his lips.
"Does this Lily look just as perfect as the real Lily?"
Lucian nodded repeatedly.
"Every detail is the same." But then, Lucian paused, as a sudden frown appeared on his face. "Now, you'll have heads turning everywhere you go."
"Humph! Lily doesn't want smelly men or women to turn their heads." Lily snorted and instantly changed her physical appearance to an above-average-looking brown-haired brown-eyed young girl, matching her real age of eighteen.
"Only Big Brother Lucian is allowed to see Lily!" She declared with a blush.
Lucian smiled, while, on the other hand, the System loudly exhaled through its nose.
"You two go find a room."
"We're in a room." They replied simultaneously, rendering the System speechless.
It wanted to rebut by saying to find a room for just them, but it realized, it would only be met with being kicked out of the room.
'A wise System knows when to keep its mouth shut.'
Even though it had that thought, the System still opened its mouth to say, "Host, you haven't fulfilled the other condition."
Lucian blinked.
"What other condition?"
He shamelessly acted oblivious.
However, after feeling a poke on his waist, quickly followed up by a hope-filled gaze, he was left with no other choice but to drop his act.
Turning to the perpetrator, Lucian said, "Lily, did you come up with a good name?"
"He's just a Low-Tier Tendon Tempering Realm Mage. With us two and father, what can he do?" Luke snorted in disdain from the side. He could already imagine the scene of his father's friend lying unconscious in a pool of his own blood.
Meanwhile, Bai Shishi remained silent. Even now, he did not dare look at his Master, fearing he would accidentally gaze into his Master's eyes.
After gazing at Bai Shishi and marveling at the power of his Dragon's Gaze, Lucian laid out the plan he thought of some time ago, "Nai Yulan expects to see only Bai Shishi, Lucius, and Luke at the abandoned alleyway. If he saw others, or worse, others lurking around, he might become wary, and the trade would be called off. Worst case scenario, my existence might become known to them. I doubt they would think that I planned to take them down, but they will at least be able to tell I have malicious intentions toward them. Also, my plan of having you guys infiltrate their gang would be as good as over."
The four servants all nodded their heads, and waited for their Master to continue.
"Moreover, to not get in your way, Lily and I will stay out of your sight."
"Master and Mistress Lily could never be in our way. We -"
Lucian raised his hand, stopping Luke's bootlicking.
"To avoid raising suspicion, we'll be acting like a couple out for a moonlit date," Lucian said then turned to Lily and gave her a wink, "Though I don't think we'll be acting."
Hearing his words coupled with the wink, Lily's face turned crimson and her heart raced with excitement.
'Our first date~. Hehehe~!'
However, as much as Lily was excited, she quickly realized she could not go out unprepared.
The first date had to be perfect!
"Lily will be right back," She announced suddenly, as she threw Nyx into Lucian's hands before rushing inside the room.
On the other hand, Lucian caught the little kitten, watching as she disappeared into the room with a wry expression.
After shaking his head with a faint smile, Lucian turned back to his servants. At the same time, his expression returned to indifference. He said, "Once Nai Yulan has been captured, Lucius, come find us and let us know. If you don't come looking for us after thirty minutes, we'll assume you guys were captured... and, well, if any of you die, I'll know. Needless to say, if things go wrong, don't expect to be rescued."
"Master and Mistress Lily's lives are far more important than our meager lives." Pei Buhan hurriedly said.
"Pei Buhan is right. If I don't come looking for Master and Mistress Lily after thirty minutes, please leave Alabaster City. Your safety takes priority."
"You don't have to tell me twice." Lucian shrugged without a change in his indifferent expression. His and his Lily's lives were far too important.
"Master, you haven't told me what to do." Pei Buhan suddenly said.
"I didn't forget if that's what you mean to say. I have a special job for you." Lucian said as he walked up to the old man before leaning down and whispering a few words in his ears.
After Lucian finished speaking, he stepped back, leaving the stunned old man.
Only after a few seconds Pei Buhan recovered enough to speak, "Yes, Master. It shall be done."
At that moment, the door opened, and Lily walked out. Her long pink hair was styled into waves, adorned with a small, jeweled butterfly hair clip. She wore a light pink dress that complimented her warm, glowing cheeks.
Even though she looked beautiful, it was a far cry from Lily's real appearance.
'A true Yandere!.' Lucian nodded.
"Lily is ready for our date." She said with a shy smile.
