Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 1045: Section 1046: The Grand Money-Making Plan

Angel looked through the open shop door and noticed that there were more demons peeking at this side from the woods outside. Most of them were Half-Blood Demons, and there was also a handful of strangely-shaped little demons.

At first, Angel didn’t understand what had happened until he stuck his head out the door to take a look outside.

He then saw the celestial river phenomenon caused by Pulapa’s breakthrough, emitting a faint blue glow above, winding and circling, attracting countless gazes.

“With such a commotion, my shop might have caught the attention of some big demons just as it opens.” Angel rubbed his chin, thinking about how Toby had admonished him to keep a low profile, yet it seemed that he had failed on the very first day.

“You think big demons have that much spare time?” Fafnir, after hearing Angel’s whisper, couldn’t help but reply sarcastically, “Countless little demons are born every day; no one will care about your insignificant shop.”

After finishing with the sarcasm, Fafnir still added, “Even if a big demon does come, I will not be afraid.”

Angel had gotten used to Fafnir’s sharp tongue. He wasn’t planning to stay in Lassudral for too long; once he earned enough money, he would choose to leave. Therefore, a temporary wooden hut would suffice; he was only making do for a few days after all.

Although there were demons peering into the “Mystic” hut from the woods outside the door, not a single one came in.

All of the demons were watching secretly.

It wasn’t until Pulapa walked out the door with a puzzled look on his face, that this caused some commotion.

So, that breakthrough phenomenon just now was caused by Pulapa?!

Pulapa was also quite well-known in the area, famous for being weak. But now, that weak Pulapa had just broken through! Although Pulapa’s strength was at most comparable to an average phantom-like little demon even after the breakthrough, it was still a sign of improvement!

What exactly happened inside that “Mystic” store?

Thus, some demons directly stopped Pulapa to inquire.

At this moment, Pulapa was also a bit bewildered. It had thought for sure that it was going to be planted today, and under the scamming of that couple, it could only pay money to ward off disaster. Who would have thought that it actually achieved a breakthrough?

Moreover, Pulapa felt that its affinity for water had improved to such a terrifying degree that it might even be stronger than its parents’!

Even when faced with the demon now holding its collar and interrogating it… Cherno Tan, it no longer felt as fearful as before.

Cherno Tan was a Quicksand Demon, likewise a little demon. Their attributes naturally countered each other, and Pulapa had suffered from Cherno Tan’s bullying, but now, Pulapa felt that the currently aggressive Cherno Tan didn’t seem all that impressive?

“I’m talking to you, didn’t you hear?” Cherno Tan, holding Pulapa by the collar, said viciously, “What’s up with that store?”

Pulapa quietly looked at Cherno Tan and gave a response that it had never dared previously.

In front of Cherno Tan, it transformed into a watery state.

As water, Pulapa had no solid form and instantly escaped Cherno Tan’s clutches. However, this action incited Cherno Tan’s rage, causing its solid body to explode furiously, transforming into a five-meter-tall sand giant.

Facing off against each other, Pulapa looked much weaker in terms of presence; however, unlike in the past, Pulapa didn’t beg for mercy or retreat, instead saying, “If you want to know, go look for yourself — don’t block my way.”

To others, these words might seem straightforward, but for Cherno Tan who often used Pulapa as a punching bag, this was a blatant provocation!

It roared in anger and with a sweep of its sandy form, struck viciously at Pulapa.

At this moment, inside the hut, Angel, somewhat excited, leaned by the window to peek outside, “I wonder who will win between them? Pulapa seems to be at a disadvantage in terms of attributes.”

“It’s a matter of mutual restraint; it depends on who’s stronger,” Fafnir interjected, “But no matter who wins between them, the ones who suffer will certainly not be them.”

“Then who will it be?” Angel wondered, but then he noticed that Fafnir, who had been on the sill behind him, suddenly vanished, and at the same time, there came a thunderous boom right in front of the hut.
