Chapter 926: 289. Big Shot Squatting Point_2

Denise Green’s delicate body tensed involuntarily, pressing tightly against Noland Lee’s back.

Gazing at the “Nicolette” in front of him, Noland Lee cast several Deconstruction Techniques, aiming at both her and the purple fumes she had released.

[Deconstruction Success!]

Noland Lee glanced at the deconstruction results in his mind, his gaze swept from the window obscured by the purple fog and settled on “Nicolette.”

He didn’t know if the Assassin Angel was naturally reticent or if extraordinary beings from the mysterious side all preferred to act aloof.

After the division of the Assassin Angel appeared, she didn’t say a word, only looking at Noland Lee indifferently.

At least from Nicolette’s face, Noland Lee couldn’t read the thoughts of the Assassin Angel.

Because of the Extraordinary Trait “Indescribable Entity,” Noland Lee couldn’t use Deconstruction to obtain memory fragments or more panel information until his level met the requirement.

Considering he hadn’t felt “Indescribable Fear” when he used Deconstruction, the technique must belong to the “non-standard detection methods.”

Noland Lee faintly detected the logic hidden behind this phenomenon.

When deconstructing targets from the magic, technological, or alchemical sides, how much Noland Lee could deconstruct depended on his own knowledge reserve.

The richer his knowledge reserve, the more detailed the deconstruction results.

But when dealing with mysterious side deconstruction targets, the situation changed.

Noland Lee first had to meet the level requirement before he could deconstruct more information.

This was irrelevant to his personal knowledge reserve.

“Hmm, the mysterious side is indeed quite enigmatic, so enigmatic that even knowledge is useless,” Noland Lee thought to himself when “Nicolette’s” eyes suddenly brightened with a brief and intense purple light.

Just as Noland Lee thought she was about to make a move, he saw the fumes in the room swirling back into her eyes, and sunlight once again flowed through the window.

Before the sunlight hit the bed, “Nicolette” lay on her side, reverting to her lying state.

All of this occurred within 0.01 second; both Noland Lee and Denise Green even saw afterimages.

One moment the room was filled with spreading purple fog, and the next, the fog dissipated and sunlight flooded in.

Denise Green rubbed her eyes, somewhat bewildered:

“Did we just experience an illusion…”

Noland Lee didn’t respond to Denise Green.

He was reading the system message that had just appeared in his mind.

[System notification:]

[“Assassin Angel Gabriel” has initiated a soul contract proposal with you.]

[The content of the contract is as follows:]

[The “Assassin Angel” pledges not to exert any negative influence on you, your companions, or your territory.]

[In return, you must keep Nicolette on Island No. 33.]

[Contract Duration: 1 year.]

[After the contract expires, the “Assassin Angel” promises to leave immediately.]

[Do you agree to sign this soul contract?]

Apart from the Original Master “Noland Lee Jarvis,” this was the second “person” to actively propose a soul contract with Noland Lee.

The current problem isn’t whether to sign or not, but how much constraint such a soul contract poses on the “Assassin Angel.”

Noland Lee highly doubted whether the so-called soul contract could restrain the Assassin Angel’s transgressions.

However, upon second thought…

A big shot of Level 576 could easily erase him and all people and objects on Island No. 33 with a mere gesture.

This soul contract, rather than being an agreement, might as well be considered a “peace declaration.”

Noland couldn’t help but wonder why the Assassin Angel would treat him with such “peace.”

Was it because the angel wanted to use Island No. 33, this “precious land,” to patiently wait for an assassination opportunity?

Who did It want to assassinate then?

Or, was It simply trying to “plant an eye” in the Suman Archipelago?

Noland Lee pondered for a moment but had no definitive conclusion in his heart.

But he understood he had no room for choice now.

How could one stop a Level 576 big shot from squatting on Island No. 33?

There was no stopping it…

Noland Lee shook his head silently and chanted internally, “Confirm signing the soul contract.”

The moment the contract was established, the figure on the bed murmured softly and woke up peacefully.

Nicolette massaged her eyes a bit and opened them, looking bewilderedly at the ceiling.

After five or six seconds, she slowly turned her head and shifted her gaze towards Noland Lee and Denise Green standing by the bed.

“Who are you…” Panic flickered in Nicolette’s eyes.

She propped herself up with her arms, stood up from the bed, and shrank to the corner like a startled kitten.

Nicolette had reverted to how she looked hundreds of years ago before the sacrifice ritual of the Golden Dynasty.

Her face was adorable, her eyes bright, her nose small and delicate, and her shoulder-length light orange hair hung down.

Now shrinking into the corner, her face was full of panic, looking just like a tormented little loli.

Noland Lee was indifferent to lolis; peaches and light mature women were his true loves.

He spoke in a calm tone:

“I am Noland Lee Jarvis, and this is my Companion Witch, Denise Green.

“You need to calm down and think back, Nicolette. Try to recall your experience in the Fissure Corridor of Union City. You have plenty of time to remember the agreement between you and me.”

“Union City… Fissure Corridor… Golden Federation… Golden Dynasty…”

Nicolette’s body shuddered slightly, the expression of recalling memories suddenly appeared in her eyes, mixed with some fear.

“…I seem to remember now. I was locked in a cage, turned into an Aberration. But how am I…”

Nicolette lifted her hands and looked at her tender palms in a daze.

She touched herself starting from her wrist, checking her body up and down.

No parts were missing, nor were there any signs of the Aberration Curse infection.

She had turned back into a human, possessing a healthy, vital flesh and blood body.

“Woo woo woo… I’ve come back to life…”

With tears brimming in her eyes, Nicolette sobbed and cried, holding her shoulders, and looked toward the two figures opposite the bed with tears streaming down her face.

“I’m really alive again… I’m no longer a monster… woo woo woo…”

Denise Green stepped lightly, circled around the bed, and came to Nicolette’s side, tenderly embracing her.

Nicolette did not resist Denise, lying on the round full moon like a baby in desperate need of comfort.

“The arduous journey has come to an end, and you are now at the new starting point of life, Nicolette.”

Denise Green said softly:

“We are currently thousands of kilometers to the west of the Golden Federation, on Island No. 33 of the Core Circle of the Suman Archipelago, which is Jarvis’s private territory. You’ll be safe here. You should remember Jarvis, right? It was he who rescued you from the Fissure Corridor.”

“Mm-hmm…” Nicolette, with a tear-stained face, looked towards Noland Lee:

“Thank you… You really are a good person…”

The corner of Noland Lee’s mouth twitched slightly.

Being given the good guy card upon waking up was not ideal.

“Denise, you stay with Nicolette for now, take her around the island or get her something to eat. I’m going down below for a while, and we’ll talk about the Magic Relics in the evening,” Noland Lee said.

Seeing that Nicolette was wearing a nightgown and inconvenient to move, he took the initiative to leave.

“Alright, Noland. I’ll take good care of her,” Denise Green replied.

Noland Lee smiled at Nicolette:

“You probably have a lot of questions now that you’ve just woken up, so let Denise answer them for you. You can also tell her if you want to eat anything; her cooking skills are quite good.”

“Mm-hmm…” Nicolette hugged Denise tightly and nodded at Noland Lee, with tears glistening.

Noland Lee turned and left the room, deploying the Flight Spell to go underground.

Since he had already signed a soul contract with the Assassin Angel, it seemed best to let Nicolette stay here for the time being.

Perhaps the Assassin Angel who chose to squat here would prove surprisingly effective during the days he was away from Island No. 33.
