Chapter 529: Chapter 430: Ash’s Harem
“The profile for the ‘Happiest Wife,’ ranking number 8 on the Happiness List, has just finished playing.
In short, it was Harvey who achieved a significant breakthrough with the Necromancy Faction, creating a perfect undead wife. This wife fully understood Harvey’s tastes, could keep up with his pace of thought, and loved him wholeheartedly. Spending every day doing research with Harvey was the happiest ti for her, and Harvey’s progress was the source of her joy. In this respect, she could indeed be described as ‘the happiest.’ After all, normal couples always have argunts and secrets, but they were as seamlessly matched as a jigsaw puzzle.
At first glance, it seed to make sense.
Then, as usual, Ash made his entrance and, in a few words, enchanted the wife, making her realize her great potential as an undead being. To better help Harvey, she decided to beco a Mage in her own right as a creature of Necromancy, no longer content to be just an appendage to Harvey!
At first glance, it seed quite positive.
Because she chose this second path, she naturally was no longer ‘the happiest wife,’ and her ranking beca invalid, with the reward nullified.
In the eyes of most people, there was nothing wrong with the future story: Wasn’t it normal for a Necromancer to craft an undead bride suiting all his fetishes? And for the Gospel List to accommodate a minority by giving the title of happiest wife to an undead being, wasn’t that very politically correct?
But to those who knew Harvey, this was utterly preposterous — if Harvey truly needed the sexual functions of the undead, he wouldn’t have Alice (♂) as his sole undead right now!
Yes, Harvey indeed had a love interest in the past, but that was before he delved deeply into the Necromancy Faction, like a fleeting sumr cicada, gone if missed.
Even if soone were to fall for him, Harvey, plunged into the cold winter of necromancy, was unlikely ever to embrace another sumr.
Therefore, Harvey now only cared about functional utility in people, not their sexual functionality.
Ash and Igula were very much entitled to speak on this matter, as they had shared a bunk bed with no personal space for several days. Harvey had a lot of ti to observe them and had ticulously arranged various necromancy enhancents for them: double-handed Ghoul fortification, double-legged skeleton demon fortification, heart Corpse Ghost fortification… When he looked at people, it was really no different from looking at pork.
Moreover, after all, a partner is for emotional comfort, but for a lunatic so powerful that he doesn’t even need friends, Harvey would not need a damn bit of emotional comfort. In his midnight reveries, he wouldn’t be pining with sorrowful yearning but planning his own death scenarios over and over.
“Harvey,” Ash asked, “what do you think?”
“I can’t rule out that I might go crazy in the future,” Harvey replied indifferently, “Who knows? Maybe after I see Igula get married, new ideas will erge? After all, human emotions are just the result of hormonal control, and reproduction is the project hormones are most concerned with. It’s not weird if I succumb to biological instincts.”
“But undead beings can’t reproduce either…”
“Hm?” Harvey looked at Ash with a strange gaze. “Isn’t reproduction about creating a new, intelligent life?”
“So you haven’t…” Ash began to follow Harvey’s train of thought — in a sense, Necromancers do indeed reproduce.
“So she is your daughter as well as your wife?” Igula said indifferently.
“Have you gotten it wrong, Igula, I didn’t even say it!” Ash hurriedly covered Liss’s ears. “There’s a child here, watch the influence!”
Liss shook off Ash’s hand. “Aunt Bokin, go on, I want to hear more.”
Ash: “Σ(°△ °|||)︴?”
Next, the 7th place on the list was the ‘Happiest Red Hat,’ and the lucky one turned out to be Cleris, a familiar face to everyone. Before her glorious deeds were fully introduced, Ash made his flashy entrance. Just like before, Ash easily lured Cleris away, and it even seed like Cleris had beco a complete sycophant to Ash, leading to another invalid ranking and a forfeited reward.
The 6th place was the ‘Happiest rchant,’ with Yvalin making an honorary appearance, followed by character introduction, Ash’s swift entrance, and acceptance as a dog…
The 5th place…
The list beca more and more ludicrous, with almost everyone who appeared being sohow related to Ash and his gang. Ash would inevitably appear in the middle of their profile and, in various ways, steer the listed ones off their original path until they inevitably submitted to following in his footsteps.
What’s more absurd was that the unmarried won who appeared, including Cleos, Yvalin, and others, almost all showed a strong attachnt to Ash, making him seriously doubt if the Gospel List had misjudged his species — he was human, not a temptress like iwa!
A perfectly fine ‘Happiness List’ had bizarrely turned into Ash’s stamp-collecting trip, the Gospel almost becoming a marriage agency.
Liss hung all over Ash, seriously selecting a stepmother for herself, comnting that this one was not tall enough, that one was not gentle enough, as if Ash had any choice in the matter.
‘Rank number 2 on the Happiness List: The Happiest Clan Leader’
Seeing this title, even Ash, who had grown accustod to the list’s outrageousness, couldn’t help but feel an ominous premonition.
‘Summary: With the help of her sister Nona Senheiser, Qinna Senheiser expanded the family’s business…’
Liss keenly noticed Ash’s body stiffen and asked, “Daddy, why did you get nervous all of a sudden when you saw Aunt Hanna’s mother?”
