30 minutes ago…

Anon was going through the forest when suddenly he saw a light, a bonfire to be exact.

Anon immediately started moving towards the bonfire.

As soon as he reached it, he saw a five-member group, sitting around the fire and talking to each other.

These guys were none other than Fen, Ven, Saul, Garry, and Rick.

They are all talking about their little plan of how they would use the girls as bait and kill the hellhound.

Anon used a stealth skill and went near them to hear what they were talking about.

After listening to their talk for about 5 minutes, Anon understood their whole plan.

‘Hehe… Seems like I will get new toys.’ Anon thought as he walked back into the forest with a creepy smile on his face and started searching for a hellhound.

After searching for 10 minutes, Anon finally found one.

‘This manipulating technique is one of the best techniques of all time. It’s called ‘Play the Hero.’ This technique is mostly used to manipulate women when they are in a sad or dire situation, like getting abandoned by their own parents.

You use this technique, and they will be yours forever. So, in this technique, first you have to scan the circumstances of the target lady, then create a problem for her… Just like in this case, I will let loose a hellhound on them, and when these cowards get busy hiding, I will go and save them.’

Anon used his skill and started luring a big hellhound towards the girls’ direction.

He used the echo skill two to three times, and finally, the hellhound noticed the bonfire.

The hellhound immediately started running towards the bonfire and jumped out of the bushes.

It saw that two girls were sitting near the bonfire and they were totally harmless.

The hellhound started rotating around the girls in a circular pattern and started drooling while Anon just observed this view from a few steps away.

“Hmmm… After searching for Jule’s memories, I found something interesting.

These girls know Jule, and they think of him as their hero because he saved them from a dog when they were little. They promised to marry him once they come of age and live happily ever after.

This would’ve been a good ending for Jule, but for Anon, this is the start.

I would manipulate them, corrupt them, turn them into my little pawns, and use them as I like. Hehehe….” Anon said as he laughed and observed them carefully.

Suddenly the hellhound started closing the distance between him and the girls.

“God… Please save us.”

“Luv, Good doesn’t give a damn about your life, but the devil will save you.” Anon said as he started running towards them.

The hellhound opened his mouth to eat Fen’s head, but before he could’ve done that, Anon grabbed its jaws and broke them easily because he has done it several times.

After this, everything happened as he predicted it to happen… Anon pretended to not know the girls; he convinced them that he forgot about them.

This created a small urge in their heads to convince Anon to acknowledge them because they’ve seen his strength. They now think that Anon is the only one who can save them and help them escape this place alive.

The girls urged to come with him instead of staying with those stupids, and his manipulation technique succeeded once again.

Now, Anon is walking in the middle of the dark forest with two girls…

“So, your parents abandoned you, huh?” Anon asked.

“Yeah.”

“True, they didn’t show any kind of affection to us anyway, but we are still grateful that they didn’t sell us to the slave trader.” Fen spoke.

“Yeah, that way would’ve been easy to buy you…” Anon murmured in a low voice.

“What? Did you say something?”

“Hmm…? Oh, it’s nothing. I was just wondering, what will you do now?” Anon asked with a smile.

“Well, we haven’t thought of that yet, but I am thinking of getting a job and taking some money at interest from the company to buy a house and pay them back in installments.” Fen spoke.

“But sister… What about mother and father?” Ven asked with an innocent face.

“They-” before Fen could’ve said anything, Anon spoke up. 𝐞𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥．𝗰𝐨𝗺

“They left you, Luv, to die in this forest because they can’t afford to feed you anymore. Hey, I have an idea… How about you guys work for me?” Jule spoke up.

“Hmm? What do you mean? Do you own a company or something?” Fen asked with a confused expression.

“No, I don’t, but you can do my homework and assignments that I get from the academy, and I will pay you in return.

I will buy you a house at zero interest, give you a monthly salary, you two can study without any worries in the academy.

What do you say?” Anon asked.

“Pfft… Hahahaha….”

Both of them started laughing at Anon.

“Hahahaha…. That’s a nice joke, Jule. I have to say…” Fen spoke, but as she looked at Anon, she saw a serious expression on his face. She stopped laughing and asked with a serious expression, “… You are not kidding, are you?”

“I don’t joke, Luv. Do you want to work for me or not?” Anon asked again.

“Well, we will do your work for free… If that’s what you want. You saved our lives back there… It’s no big deal for us to do a little bit of academic work.” Fen spoke.

“Yeah… Sister is right, and I don’t think you have that much money to give us a home and a monthly basis salary.” Ven spoke as she looked at Anon with a smirk.

“Yeah… That’s one thing you are wrong about, Luv. Here you go.” Anon said as he summoned a platinum coin and gave it to Fen.

Both of the sisters looked at the coin and went into shock immediately.

“Wait, Wait, Wait… Is-Is this real? Is this coin real?” Fen asked with a very surprised face.
