Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Chapter 19 The Gift from the Strange White-Haired Girl

In the evening, I returned home from the academy.

Ye Ge was about to enter the Ye family manor gate.

A timid, soft female voice suddenly sounded behind me: "Y-you... hello..."

Ye Ge turned around and found a little girl she didn't know.

The little girl was about ten years old, around his age. She had fine, snow-white hair, a fair, oval face, and a pure, innocent appearance. However, she seemed very shy, her little hands clasped together, looking incredibly delicate and timid. (Photo)

"Who are you?" Ye Ge looked at the little girl he didn't recognize with a hint of confusion.

"This...this is for you..."

The little girl with white hair lowered her head slightly and nervously handed over something with both hands.

Ye Ge took it and saw that it was a small pink hand-woven lucky bag, and it seemed to contain something inside.

Judging from the style and design of this lucky bag, it seems like the little girl made it herself.

Did someone give you a gift?

“Is this a gift?”

"Yes......"

Why did you give me this?

"Because...because..." The white-haired little girl seemed quite introverted, her fingers clenched together. "Thank you for saving me last time..."

"Huh?" Ye Ge looked puzzled.

Did I save her?

When?

Ye Ge carefully examined the little girl's face, but had absolutely no recollection of her.

The white-haired little girl, stared intently at Ye Ge for a long time, her rosy cheeks instantly burning red like overcooked lobster meat: "P-P-Please thank you!"

After saying that, she bowed deeply to Ye Ge, then turned and ran away as if her life depended on it.

Ye Ge watched the little girl's figure gradually disappear, completely bewildered.

He opened the lucky bag and found that it contained a Soul Crystal!

Soul crystals are an important resource in this world. Although they are pink quality, a piece of this size should only be worth around 10.

This is nothing to Ye Ge, of course.

However, judging from the little girl's clothes and appearance, she should be a girl from a commoner background.

Giving him a single soul crystal would probably mean emptying one's entire fortune.

It looks like the girl is about the same age as him, around ten years old.

But Ye Ge had never seen this little girl before at the War Academy, at least not as a student in the same grade as him.

That's even stranger.

She said she had saved her, but who could it be?

Ye Ge glanced at the soul crystal in her hand, then casually put it into her inventory space.

However, just as he was about to put away the pink lucky bag in his hand, a transparent information box suddenly popped up, making Ye Ge slightly startled.

[Item: A handmade woven lucky bag given to me by a stranger]

[Quality: White]

[Description: This gift comes from a girl who is grateful to you. It contains her deep affection and gratitude, and may bring you some good luck.]

[Special Attribute: Luck +10 (This attribute only applies to you personally; the effect disappears when the item is transferred)]

Night Song was somewhat surprised.

A seemingly unremarkable handmade lucky bag actually has the attribute of increasing luck?!

"Young master, is that your friend?"

The butler walked out of the Ye family's gate and asked with great curiosity.

“Oh, no,” Night Song said, “it’s a complete stranger.”

Night Song seemed to understand something.

It seems that as long as you receive a gift from relatives, friends, or even strangers, as long as it is heartfelt, it may be given this hidden special attribute.

Luck is a very rare attribute in the game.

Even high-quality items and equipment have almost no effect on increasing a character's luck stat.

The straight sword and longsword that Xue'er and Yao Yao gave him last time were examples of the weapon's inherent luck attribute enhancement.

The success rate is only increased during enhancement and enchanting.

It did not improve his personal fortune.

I never expected a white-quality lucky bag to be so...

Butler: "Young Master, the Master and Madam are already waiting for you in the dining room. Let's go in quickly."

Ye Ge snapped out of her daze: "Okay, sure."

As he walked through the Ye family garden, Ye Ge's crow suddenly flew back, landed on his shoulder, and whispered something to him.

Ye Ge's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

The butler turned around and looked at him strangely.

"nothing."

Ye Ge smiled and said, "You go in first, I'll go and greet the new guests."

"Guests?" The butler looked puzzled.

......

A man in black moved swiftly, leaping and weaving between the large trees of the Ye family manor.

"Wow... this manor is huge..."

The man in black had been scouting for a long time, and the vast manor complex before him left him speechless with astonishment.

The Ye family, this crazed and warlike demonized clan, has been suppressed for centuries by the combined forces of other noble families, sects, and guilds within the empire, yet it still possesses such a vast empire...

If they were allowed to develop without any restrictions, tsk tsk tsk... I don't even want to think about it!

However, the men in black only dared to operate and scout in the outer perimeter.

The head of the Ye family, Night Owl, is currently in that enormous luxury villa.

That's a powerful expert at the Asura Realm!

Getting any closer would be suicide.

"Look at that magical musical fountain, look at those majestic sculptures, look at those servants dressed as maids..."

The man in black cursed to himself, "Those damn upper-class guys, they're living such a comfortable life!"

"I wonder what the inside of the villa is like..."

Night Song's voice suddenly rang out: "Want to know? How about I take you inside for a bit?"

“Okay…wait, what?” The man in black was momentarily stunned.

Immediately, the hairs on my entire body stood on end!

He turned around abruptly and saw a shy and handsome little boy of about ten years old standing on one leg on a tree branch next to him, smiling at him.

The man in black had seen Night Song's photos.

He recognized him at a glance as the young master of the Ye family, Ye Xiao's only son, Ye Ge!

"you......"

The man in black looked terrified and incredulous, as if he had seen a ghost.

He is a specially trained reconnaissance superhuman.

Although he only has the strength of the Profound Realm, his ability to hide, detect, and track is extremely good. Even experts in the Hundred Souls Realm may not be able to detect his presence within ten meters!

The young master of the Ye family in front of me is clearly just a superhuman who has just entered the second stage of the Profound Realm.

How could anyone possibly find him?!

and......

When did he appear?

I was completely unaware!

"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes. The Ye family is known for its hospitality."

Ye Ge smiled shyly as he slowly raised his hand, and the black raven perched on his finger flew away.

In an instant, the pitch-black crow transformed into a strange, ethereal black mist. In the next instant, ten more crows swooped out of the mist, their black feathers scattering as they pounced and attacked the man in black!

Seeing this, the man in black suddenly flipped backward, his agility allowing him to dodge the crows' attack and leap to the top of another large tree.

The man in black's eyes darkened.

I never expected to be discovered today.

Fortunately, this is still on the outskirts of the Ye family manor.

All we need to do is escape from here before Night Song calls for help.

And what about the night song before us?

The man in black didn't take it to heart.

Both are at the Profound Realm, so why would a sixth-stage Profound Realm transcendent being be afraid of a mere second-stage Profound Realm brat?

The man in black raised his right hand, making a magic gesture, and muttered some kind of incantation.

"Second-tier magic - Fireball!"

After chanting for a few seconds, a flash of orange light appeared in the black-clad man's hand, condensing into a magic fireball the size of a ball!

As a scout, this is the only damaging skill he is proficient in and the only skill he knows.

Scouts don't really need a lot of damaging abilities anyway.

"boom!"

The man in black released the scorching fireball from his hand and sent it hurtling towards Ye Ge!

The orange, blazing firelight was reflected in Ye Ge's eyes; he had been waiting for this for a long time.

Demonic Copying Technique, activated!

"Copy Magic - Dark Fireball!"

With a flick of his wrist, without any chanting, a black, blazing fireball appeared in Ye Ge's hand!

That eerie black fireball was even surrounded by a faint, strange black halo, with a dark red glow flickering within it!

Man in black:"???"

What the hell is this?!

Are these kinds of magic spells taught in elementary school textbooks?

And... why don't you even need to chant or form hand seals to activate your skills?!

Moreover, the dark fireball that Night Song threw was several times larger than the fireball released by the man in black!

It's almost the size of a truck tire!

The man in black stared wide-eyed as the small fireball he had released was instantly engulfed by the massive black fireball, which then hurtled towards him...

"boom!"

Most of the tree's canopy was instantly engulfed and burned by black flames!

The man in black dodged again at the moment of the explosion and disappeared without a trace.

"Second-tier martial skill - Ghostly Steps!"

"Whoosh...!"

"Whoosh...!"

With a few leaps and a quick dodge, and then, taking advantage of the shockwave from the explosion, he was hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye!

Ye Ge watched the retreating figure of the man in black fleeing into the pitch-black night.

hehe......

They escaped pretty quickly...

The figure in black moved like the wind.

As a reconnaissance-type superhuman, he excelled in martial arts classes, but his physical training focused entirely on agility and flexibility.

Even if they can't win a fight, they're masters at escaping.

In a matter of seconds, the man in black had already escaped from the Ye family manor.

"Luckily, I have a high-level movement technique like 'Ghost Step'..."

The man in black let out a deep breath, remaining in a half-squatting position on the ground, feeling that he should be safe now.

Just then, a small hand reached out from behind and patted his shoulder: "Ghost Step, huh? Not bad, it's mine."

The man in black's pupils dilated as he turned his head in disbelief.

Night Song's small figure appeared behind him like a ghost, revealing a cruel smile.
