"Well, to put it simply, I went to a cemetery to look for treasure, but not only did I not find any treasure, I also accidentally stepped on a trap and got entangled by this thing. It was originally only the size of a palm, but before I knew it, it had covered my entire torso." Nymega described.
Isidor thought to himself that if Noelle was here, she could easily get rid of this thing with her body fluids. However, although Noelle was not here, he still had the knot she gave him, which might also be helpful.
Thinking of this, Isidore asked, "Turn around, face me and lift your skirt."
"Eh? Why did you suddenly change to such a dirty topic? I thought you would give me money as soon as you felt sympathy for me." Nymega pouted, but still turned her back reluctantly and lifted her skirt towards Isidor.
Isidor didn't bother to pay attention to her. He took out the knot and put it on Nymega's lower back.
A white light flashed from the knot, and Nymega trembled all over. The parasite wrapped around her body began to squirm violently.
"Oh! It works. Is it the purification magic?" Nymega's eyes lit up as if she saw hope.
"Well, I know a little bit about purification magic." Isidor hurriedly put away the knot. He didn't want this self-defense tool to be seen by others.
"But the purification power seems not enough. Instead, it stimulates it." Nimega pressed the squirming parasite, and an unnatural blush appeared on her face.
[Ghost value has been increased to 200]
[Special skills acquired: Skill fusion]
[Evolution potential has been upgraded to LV10]
[Evolution direction can be selected]
【① Red Goblin】
【②Blue Goblin】
【③Big Goblin】
At this moment, the system's prompt sounds came one after another. Nymega's performance finally stimulated Isidor's evil thoughts, causing his ghost value to soar to 200 points!
Isidor never expected that his evolutionary potential, which had been of little use, would allow him to choose the direction of evolution after reaching level 10. This ability sounds absolutely powerful!
Isidor was overjoyed. He ignored Nymega who was twisting on the ground like a baby maggot, and hurried to check the direction of its evolution.
"Evolution! This is so damn cool. I've been annoyed with this goblin body for a long time!" Isido clicked on the details on the panel and saw a three-view drawing for each of the three evolutionary directions, accompanied by a text description to show the image and abilities after evolution.
If it evolves into a red goblin or a blue goblin, its skin will change to the corresponding color, but its body size will remain the same. The former can gain the ability of fire, and the latter can gain the ability of ice.
The Big Goblin is just the opposite. After evolution, the skin color is still green, but the body becomes taller and the appearance is closer to humans. Although it has no special abilities, the basic stats will be greatly improved.
Each of the three directions has its own advantages, which made Isidor difficult to decide for a while.
Chapter 20 Exclusive Maid
"Mr. Isidor...Mr. Isidor?"
Nymega's repeated calls pulled Isidor out of the joy of evolving. Only then did he realize that there was a maid lying on the ground in front of him, moaning sweetly, waiting for his help.
"What's wrong?" Isidor asked deliberately.
"I want...want..."
"What do you want? If you want it, just tell me." A wicked smile appeared on Isidor's face.
"I want you to use the purification magic on me again. I feel like I'm about to peel it off." Nymega hugged Isidor's ankles, looking like a spoiled puppy.
"But what good will this do me? My purification magic consumes a lot of magic power. Can you replenish my magic power?" Isidor asked deliberately.
"Replenish mana? Do I need...mana potion? I...I have saved some money, it should be enough to just buy potions~" Nymega's voice was intermittent, as if she could not bear the stimulation of the parasite.
"If you ask the Holy See to cast a spell to solve the problem, will they just send you away with a few bottles of potion? If you want me to help you, you have to show more sincerity." Isidor said unmoved.
The reason why Isidor said this was not because he was cold-blooded, but because he felt that if he showed kindness to others casually, in the end he would not be valued. It would be better to give up being a good guy and put the relationship between the two parties on the balance of interests, which would make people feel more at ease.
Of course, he didn't expect to get too much out of this desperate maid, he just hoped that she would understand that his help was not just cheap kindness.
"I'm sorry, I really have nothing to pay. If you don't mind, if you can save me, I am willing to stay by your side and serve you as a maid." Nymega said aggrievedly.
"Well, that's better." Isidor thought that having such a beautiful maid by his side would be pleasing to the eye even if he didn't use her, so he agreed.
He immediately patted Nymega's body, motioned for her to turn over, and tied the knot made of Noel's fur to her back.
White light was seen flowing, and the parasite's movements became more and more violent. Nymega had no choice but to bite the corner of her skirt, trying hard not to make any sound.
"Oh, you're resisting fiercely. Can you bear it?" Isidor asked worriedly when he saw that Nymega looked in pain.
At this time, Nymega could no longer speak, but she still nodded stubbornly. Even Isidor couldn't help but admire her willpower.
Half an hour later, with Noelmao's purification ability, the parasite finally peeled off Nymega's body and turned into a pool of jelly.
"Good job! You held on!" Isidor covered herself with the maid uniform, stood up and patted Nymega on the shoulder, only to find that the latter had already fainted with her eyes rolled back.
When Nymega woke up, she found herself lying on the bed in the hotel, and Isidor, who had just helped her, was standing beside her.
"You're awake? The operation was successful and you're a boy now," Isidor joked.
"No way! I haven't heard of any side effects of futanari!" Nimega was shocked and reached her hand into her skirt to touch it, then she felt relieved.
"You know a lot..." Isidor said with shame.
"It's really gone! I feel so relieved now, Mr. Isidor, I really don't know how to thank you!" Nymega then realized that the parasites on her body had been removed, and she jumped up from the bed excitedly.
"Don't thank me yet. What do you think we should do with this thing?" Isidor said, pointing at the gelatinous substance on the ground.
Nymega took a closer look and saw that although the parasite had been purified into a pool of jelly, it was still alive, curled up under the chair and shivering.
"Of course I'll kill it with one sword!" When Nymega saw the parasite that had tortured her for so long, she couldn't help but get furious. She subconsciously wanted to draw the sword from her waist, but she touched nothing.
"No...don't kill me." The parasite suddenly spoke in a human voice.
"Ah? This thing can talk?" Nymega and Isidor were both shocked.
"I'm sorry... My existence has caused my sister to suffer, but if I don't attach myself to my sister, I won't be able to survive." The gelatinous substance slowly gathered and took shape, and finally turned into a pink translucent little loli.
"Haha, a monster that can disguise itself as a human? I will kill it without hesitation!" Nimega said, and began to look for weapons around the room.
"Sister, please don't do that. I'm not mimicking a human form. I'm originally a human!" the pink loli cried.
After hearing this, Isidor stopped Nymega and said, "Wait a minute, listen to what she says first. If it doesn't suit your wishes, it won't be too late to kill her later."
Seeing this, Nymega had no choice but to sit down patiently.
Seeing that she was out of danger, Pink Loli finally breathed a sigh of relief and told her life story:
"My name is Aibei. I was a maid who was buried alive with a noble. When I was about to starve to death, a strange slime came in from the cracks in the tomb. I was so hungry that I swallowed the slime into my stomach, and then I was assimilated into this state." The pink loli explained while crying.
"So that's how it is. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" After listening to Abe's story, Nimega was no longer angry and only blamed her symbolically.
"Actually, until just now, there were two souls in my body. So I couldn't really control myself. It was not until this big brother purified the slime's soul just now that I was able to get my body back - big brother, it was you who saved Abe!" Abe said, and couldn't help but pounce on Isidor.
Isidor quickly caught Abe, who was smaller than himself, and let her cry in his arms.
However, Abe's body could no longer shed tears. Instead, only symbolic body fluids flowed out.
"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I will not kill you. But then again, it's difficult for you to live as a human being in this state," said Nymega.
"Big sister, although it is a little difficult to say, but after this period of symbiosis, my soul has been bound to yours, and even our perceptions are shared. So I can only survive by absorbing the magic power from you." Abei said a little embarrassedly.
"Huh? Are you going to continue absorbing my power from me?" Nymega said in disbelief.
"Is perception also common? This is interesting." Isidor said, and suddenly tickled Abe's ribs.
"Ah! Mr. Isidor, it's so itchy, don't do this. My body is a combination of human and slime, so human sensitive points still exist!" Abe laughed out loud, and Nymega on the side also laughed while covering her ribs.
"Mr. Isidor! Stop it, I can't take it anymore, I'm ticklish! No, I'm wrong, Master! Master, please stop it!" Nimega begged for mercy loudly.
"Very good, it seems that you haven't forgotten the agreement just now." Isidor stopped with satisfaction.
"My master is such a pervert - in short, this thing must never come back to me. Not to mention absorbing power, that feeling... is too embarrassing." Nymega said with a blushing face.
"Nimega, don't you understand the seriousness of the matter?" Isidor asked seriously.
"What do you mean?" Nymega sensed something wrong from Isidor's expression.
"Your feelings are shared and your souls are bound. I tickled her just now and you will feel the itch in the same place. So what if I stab her with a sword or simply chop her into pieces?" Isidor asked.
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Nimega's face, and she finally realized the seriousness of the matter.
Chapter 21 Maid No. 2
"Sister, I don't have to eat only rice. Because of my assimilation with the slime, I now have some special abilities that can provide you with certain defense and treatment. If I continue to grow, I may be able to do more things. And now it is Abe's soul that dominates my body. I can eat while you are resting and will not hinder you from fighting!" As if seeing Nymega's hesitation, Abe took the initiative to explain.
"In that case, I'll let you stay on me for a while." Nymega hesitated for a while, and finally agreed to let Abe continue to stay on her.
"Thank you, sister. Abe will work hard to grow and try to help my brother and sister!" After Abe said that, she crawled into the chest of the maid outfit and turned into a one-piece underwear covering Nymega's body.
Nimega's body twisted unnaturally for a while, and her breasts suddenly became two cup sizes fuller, making her expression look even more charming and attractive.
"Mr. Isidor, I am a man of my words. From today on, I will be your exclusive maid. You must take on the responsibilities of a master and treat your maid well." After putting on Abe, Nymega smiled at Isidor.
"If Sister Nymega is the maid, then Abe is the second maid!" Abe interrupted under Nymega's skirt.
Isidor felt dizzy. He didn't expect that as soon as he entered the city, he took in two maids and instantly became a family.
"Oh, by the way, Abe! If you want to coexist with Nimega, you must remember one thing: unless there are only two of us around, you must not talk!" Isidor calmed himself down, and suddenly remembered that it would be a trouble if Abe's identity was leaked, so he quickly reminded her.
"Nimega! How long are you going to stay there? Do you know how busy the store is? Are you itching for a beating?" Just then, the store owner came up angrily with a whip.
"Huh? Are you talking to me? If you're busy at work, just do it yourself." Nimega immediately put away her smile and looked at her boss with a cold face, without any trace of the servile look she had just had.
"How dare you talk back?! If I don't punish you these few days, you will become arrogant, right?" The boss was so angry that he whipped Nymega in the face.
Isidor was about to step forward to stop them, but Nymega was quick-witted and grabbed the whip. She used the momentum to drag the boss to the ground and stepped on his head.
"Don't call my name casually, or I'll crush your throat." Nymega leaned over and warned.
"Yes, yes, I won't scream anymore. Please have mercy on me." The boss felt the increasing force on his head, so he quickly put away his expression and begged for mercy.
"Forget it, don't waste your time on him, I have something else to ask you," said Isidor.
"Okay, since the master said so." Nymega said, letting go of the boss's head and kicking him to the side.
"Master, what do you want to ask?" Nymega turned around and asked.
"You used to be an adventurer, right?" Isidor asked.
"That's right, master." Nymega tilted her head and said in a 45-degree posture.
"Then you must be familiar with the adventurer registration process, right?"
"Yes, master." Nymega said with a smile.
"Can you please stop calling me master? It feels a bit embarrassing." Isidor said somewhat uncomfortable.
"Okay master, no problem master." Nymega showed a sly smile, and seemed to be addicted to it.
"Forget it, whatever you want. Just take me to the Adventurer's Guild. I want to register as an adventurer." Isidor requested.
"Master, do you want to be an adventurer? Okay, let's go now. I don't want to stay in this damn place any longer." Nymega agreed readily.
Isidor then simply packed his luggage (mainly a few baguettes) and set off for the Adventurer's Guild with Nymega.
In fact, Isidor originally planned to register with the guild after evolving, but after calming down, he realized a problem:
With my current body shape and appearance, I can perfectly pass for a dwarf, but if I evolve and become more like a monster, I won't be able to stay in a human town.
So he decided not to evolve for the time being. After all, the skills would not disappear. If he encountered danger, he could just evolve on the spot.
As for the newly acquired [Skill Fusion], according to the description, it can fuse at least two similar skills into a new skill.
Although it looked powerful, there were only a few skills on Isidor's panel, and each of them had its uses. He didn't dare to take the risk of trying to fuse them, so he just left it alone.
It didn't take long for the two to arrive at the Adventurer's Guild. Grimdor was originally a small town that evolved from an adventurer's camp, so the guild had a very high status and the buildings were luxurious.
Nymega brought Isidor to the reception desk with ease and said to the lady in charge of registration, "Please help us register as adventurers."
"No problem. Please do an ability assessment first to assess your initial level, and then fill out the registration form. Don't worry, the guild will keep your personal data confidential and will not make it public." The registrar said, taking out a slate and placing it on the counter. There were some spells engraved on the slate, and in the center there was a sunken handprint, and its usage was clear at a glance.
"Nimega, you go first." Isidor was worried that the stone slab would detect that his race was a goblin, so he quickly let Nimega take the lead.
"Well, master, you should go first. I'll just fill in some numbers and become the lowest level D-class adventurer." Nymega said shyly.
"Nimega, how can you not obey your master's orders?" Isidor said with a stern face.
"Okay..." Nymega hesitated for a moment, and had to press her palm on the stone slab.
"Fighting power...three stages." Isidor whispered.
"Master? What did you just say?" Nymega asked in confusion.
"Ah, nothing, let's take a look at your data first." Isidor quickly changed the subject.
