Shut Up, Young Lady, Obediently Hand Over The Money And Don't Confess! Chapter 7 : I Did Touch Her, So What

Boring.

Was this the tedious life of rich people?

After entering the dungeon, the nearly hundred guards disappeared from sight, protecting them secretly from the surroundings.

Adeline carried a small bag filled with snacks and water, following beside Felyn.

Wait, this wasn't right, was it?

The civilian teams they'd passed by earlier were all engaged in bitter struggles, while he felt like he was on a spring outing in the dungeon.

"Felyn, look! There's an injured magical beast ahead."

Huh?

Why was Adeline still performing the "conveniently injured" act at this point?

She should have hidden those guards properly so he wouldn't see them.

Felyn walked forward. This was a fourth-tier magical beast with a chance of containing a fourth-order magic crystal in its body.

One fourth-order magic crystal equaled 100 first-order magic crystals.

"Felyn, quickly give it the finishing blow."

The Royal Capital had instrunts that could detect who hunted magical beasts through the magic crystals.

Otherwise, a family young lady like Adeline would never hunt personally.

Felyn walked forward, looking at his own reflection in the beast's eyes.

"Even if I wanted to see my cheat ability, there's no way..."

Seals were tools that stored divine arts.

For those who hadn't learned divine arts yet, seals were their only weapons.

When playing this ga, a veteran on the forums had discovered a bug in the ga.

By overlapping two seals of any level, then activating them simultaneously before terminating them at the sa ti, the system would bug out.

The two seals would randomly release effects from 1st to 7th-order seals, while only consuming one seal.

If the caster could make physical contact with a second person, the ga system would beco even more confused. The larger the contact area, the higher the probability of randomly getting high-level seal effects.

He'd originally wanted to touch a teammate this ti to increase the probability, but it seed unnecessary now.

Felyn pulled out a first-order seal and ended the magical beast's life.

"Pretty good luck—got a fourth-order magic crystal."

Felyn wiped the blood from his hands with a handkerchief and showed Adeline a reassuring smile.

Seals were less powerful than divine arts and very expensive. A first-order seal cost 1,000 crowns. Fourth-order and above seals were hard to buy even with money.

He could only afford to buy a few first-order seals. Second-order seals cost 5,000 crowns each—completely unaffordable.

So seals were just additional attack tools. To master true power, he still needed to enter the Royal Capital to study divine arts.

Along the way, the two "coincidentally encountered" several injured third-order magical beasts.

"Now I have enough magic crystals. Felyn, how many more do you need?"

Felyn counted the magic crystals in his bag. A few more magical beasts would et the Royal Capital's admission requirents.

So, the question was:

When did Adeline plan to make her move?

Did she want to let him gather enough magic crystals, then strike when he was incredibly happy?

Was this woman really this vicious?

Felyn secretly glanced at Adeline beside him.

Soone who could hold a kindergarten grudge until now was definitely this vicious!

"What are you thinking about?"

Adeline looked at the serious-faced Felyn, the corners of her mouth lifting in a slight smile.

Without thinking, she knew Felyn's head was now filled only with gratitude toward her.

She really was kind-hearted. Even though she'd hired Felyn, she was still treating him so well.

"I just feel that Lady Adeline is very gentle. Despite your family's superior conditions, you don't look down on a fallen noble like . You're like a goddess."

"Go-go-go-goddess! You're being too dramatic, hahaha."

Adeline fanned her sowhat burning cheeks with her hand, her tied ponytail swaying with the motion.

Calling a goddess—he loves so much.

Felyn squinted, watching Adeline sway chanically like a doll wound up thirty thousand tis.

Was this person really okay?

Just as he was thinking this, another magical beast appeared ahead.

This beast was relatively healthy—at least it could still run.

This first-order magical beast was among the weakest in the dungeon. It charged toward Felyn and Adeline, roaring and venting its fury.

Wait, here is my chance.

"Lady Adeline, be careful!"

Felyn grabbed Adeline's hand and pulled her behind him for protection.

Her soft chest pressed against Felyn's back, causing Adeline to widen her eyes and forget to cry out.

That's right—he'd deliberately touched Adeline, the so-called "butter hands."

With a rare moving magical beast, he just needed to act concerned for Adeline while taking the opportunity to touch her hand to test whether his cheat ability worked.

If Adeline really intended to harm him later, at least he'd have hope of survival.

Felyn pulled out his treasured two first-order seals, activating and terminating them simultaneously.

Then he held Adeline's hand without letting go—bug activated!

Blue seal patterns began to appear, then the orderly patterns started becoming chaotic.

A light that definitely didn't belong to a first-order seal appeared, spewing fierce flas.

Fourth-order seal: Azure Fla Storm!

Success!

The first-order magical beast was instantly incinerated to ash.

"Lady Adeline, are you hurt? Sorry, I was too worried the magical beast would charge over and injure Lady Adeline, so I got a bit nervous..."

Felyn's voice grew quieter and quieter.

Adeline sat on the ground, slightly lowering her head.

Her small hands smoothed the loose hair by her ears, revealing shy pink on her fair cheeks.

Her gaze occasionally stole glances at Felyn before quickly looking away, breathing softly as her body rose and fell with it.

Adeline was currently in complete chaos.

That was a fourth-order seal, right?

Felyn was so poor now—that seal must have been brought out before his family's destruction and kept by his side as a treasured life-saving seal.

Just because a first-order magical beast charged over, Felyn feared she might get hurt and easily used a fourth-order seal capable of killing fourth-order magical beasts.

If it were rely an employnt relationship, he would never need to go this far.

He must have panicked and instinctively wanted to save her, using this life-saving seal without hesitation.

From the innocent, brilliant smile the young man showed, Adeline felt his confession burning like fierce flas.

He loves so much!

In this small dungeon, both their brains were rapidly working at full speed.

They were just thinking in completely different directions.

Just as Felyn was about to reach out to help Adeline up, he saw the girl's expression change.

Her eyes widened, lips slightly parted.

A figure instantly appeared before him, blocking Adeline. In a daze, Felyn could make out the Claude family crest on that person's clothing.

Then Felyn heard a violent explosion. He felt dizzy as his vision slowly blurred.

In the end, she still made her move against ?
