She suddenly heard a message:
Do you want to revive them?
She knew immediately that she had to find the souls again and took out her soul orb and looked in its inventory, but it was empty of souls.
"Where are the souls?" she asked, confused.
"The red ball." Kenta replied.
Lily didn't know what to do and only had one idea and bet it would work. She moved the red orb in her left hand towards the soul orb in her right hand. When they touched each other, it was as if the soul orb sucked the red orb into it. It looked like they melted together.
She looked into the soul orb's inventory again and saw countless souls and was sure there were more than 200 here. She looked at all of them and only recognized the woman with the red hair and placed her soul first in her body. She ran around placing the other souls but when she reached 200, she saw that there were still souls left.
She quickly ran around placing all the souls and even had to run down the hill to find the last souls. When she had finished, she looked around and discovered that the whole hill was dead quiet.
Didn't Ace say 5000 people lived on each hilltop?
She hoped no one would notice.
She activated Mother of Life and summoned Shun and quickly flew away in a rush.
She hoped she hadn't left any clues. Since the hills were far apart it was impossible for them to see what had happened in this place.
They landed in a secluded place far from the inn which was out in the country which was to Lily's advantage. She dismissed Shun and sat down on the grass. Her body felt warm, and she felt her insides burning.
Your Master of Disguise has expired.
She was relieved that she had accomplished her quest with her disguise. She changed back into some other clothes still in pain and her stomach was cramping.
She activated Dispel and Heal on herself but to her disappointment nothing happened. If she was poisoned there was only one method and she called Ace.
"That was fast. Did you make it?” he asked.
"Yes. Can I come over shortly? I need your help." Lily replied.
"Okay. You know where I live.” Ace said.
Lily put on a pink pig mask and walked towards the inn called the Netherworld. To her relief, she saw Pegasus standing at the entrance and when he saw her, he immediately went over to her.
If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
"Wait here." she said, stroking his mane.
She entered the inn and saw that it looked cozy. There was a large bar where there was an older man with dark hair and a short dark beard with a beer belly who was polishing glasses. The place was surprisingly large and busy. There was jazz music and people sat around tables eating and drinking and they all looked like normal people. Some of them were wearing masks like her but theirs looked much more expensive.
She went to the bar and looked at the man and asked, “Good evening. Can you post a job advertisement here?”
The man looked at her and replied, “You must be new here. Of course, since everyone is welcome here. Over on the wall.” and pointed to a blackboard on a wall to his left.
"Thank you very much." Lily said, bowing to him and walking over to the blackboard.
When she was about to take out her job advertisement, she thought about who they should contact. Since Black Star was linked to the black market people here might not know his name because what the hell would they need on a black market when they could farm their own incredible things.
Who on earth were they supposed to contact?
Since she didn't expect anyone to contact her because she was a no name, she chose to use Fergus’ name because he was known all over. She took the job posting out of her inventory and posted it on the board with a red pin. She saw the board was empty so hopefully people would look at it.
She turned but as she was about to leave a man came up to her wearing black ninja clothes and a red Oni mask. She was immediately fascinated by the mask because it looked like it was made of real leather, and it looked incredibly expensive.
“I join you.” the man said looking at her.
Lily was surprised because he hadn't read her note at all unless he had falcon eyes.
"Do you even know what I demand?" she asked.
The man began to repeat everything that was written in her note word for word, and she was surprised. She was happy that he wanted to join her but wondered why because she was under lvl 300, and he looked very strong.
" Uhm, unfortunately I'm not rich." she apologized, embarrassed.
"I'm not interested in that." he said.
"I'm only temporarily in a guild." Lily said.
"I don't care about that." said the man.
She was happy that he was interested in her job posting but could not understand why he had chosen her.
Suddenly her stomach cramped again and said, “Okay. You can add me as a friend, but I don't have time to talk right now. I have an errand.”
"Okay. Just contact me.” said the man, sounding happy.
The Soul Reaper has added you as a friend.
Huh?
Confused, Lily stared at him and walked right up to him and started touching him all over.
This man was a soul reaper but why was he in physical form?
“W-what are you doing?” the man asked, confused.
"I'm just checking you out to make sure you're real." Lily replied, smiling.
She was completely excited that her first friend from the netherworld was The Soul Reaper.
She hugged him and said, "I'll be in touch with you soon." and went outside to Pegasus and hastened to fly away.
The Soul Reaper was left confused and speechless. He could still smell her and feel her soft body as she hugged him. He coughed and went outside, leaving the inn immediately.
"Did you see that? That was The Soul Reaper.” said a man suddenly.
“He’s never interested in anyone. Who was it?" asked another man.
"Let me see the note that was hung up." said a man, standing up and walking over to the blackboard.
"It’s someone who’s looking for strong people, but the contact person is Fergus, and it was definitely a woman." said the man when he had read the entire notice.
Suddenly, everyone stood up and walked towards the blackboard.
"Let me see it." said a man.
"No, let me see it first." said a woman.
The innkeeper went to the blackboard and took the note down and shouted, "One at a time or you'll tear it to pieces."
