John Miller house was located outside the city. Far way from the city, in a desolate and forbidden place. It takes about 3 hours to reach. John already had left before the auction ended. He left his trusted bodyguard to bring the Elf back with him.
The Elf empty eyes didn't had any reaction. She always had a cold aura and noble around her. Making people feel like she was looking down on humans and she was a royal.
Ash secretly followed John's bodyguard. As soon as Ash teleported outside the city, he wore a long dark cloaks with a red cloud, a red interior, and a chin-high collar. Ash was wearing a red mask. Ash bought the Akatsuki organization clothes from the system along with a kusanagi sword.
Jack who was a 7th rank bodyguard of John Miller felt something was wrong. He felt that someone was following him but he didn't anything suspicious. Jack was followed by a five 6th rank warriors.
Ash decided to act when Jack and his team decided to pass through the forest.

Ash speed increased to another level. Ash teleported in front of Jack and his team. Ash appearance alerted the whole team. Before they could even react The five warriors was killed by Ash. Ash speed was so fast that just within a seconds Ash had cut the bodies of 5 warriors into two.
Ash then looked at Jack. Jack was already very frightened by Ash' speed. Jack was sure that this mysterious man's speed was even faster than a 8th rank assassins.
" You dare to kill the Miller clan's servants,... Before Jack could finish his words Ash already had killed him.
Arise!
All the warriors was turned into Shadows and they immediately kneeled in front of Ash. Ash then saved his shadows in his shadow.
Isabella couldn't believe what she was seeing. She was completely shocked by Ash mysterious powers. She had never seen or heard of anyone in this continent having such beautiful eyes. And his powers are otherworldly. Isabella couldn't move her eyes from looking at this man's eyes.
Ash then approached Isabella. Ash first destroyed the cage and set Isabella free. As soon as Isabella stood up after being Ash destroyed the chains, she was about fall on the ground but Ash caught her.
Isabella immediately pushed Ash and tried to walk on her own but she again was about to fall on the ground but Ash again caught. Ash then picked up Isabella and carried her like a princess.
Isabella didn't knew why but her heartbeat increased. She was too angry with the humans to notice the change. Ash teleported and bought Isabella in his rented apartment. After Ash came to Queenstown city, he rented a small 2 bedroom house for himself.
Ash threw her on the sofa. Isabella glared at Ash in anger. Ash made a shadow clone of himself and sent him to buy food and other stuff. Isabella was extremely shocked by this.
Ash then removed the mask and returned to orginal appearance. Isabella was once again shocked to find that Ash age was same as her but his strength was already 8th rank or even more. She never expected Ash to be such a good looking man.
Ash then removed the cloak he was wearing and sat next to Isabella. This alerted Isabella every much. She thought that Ash was going to touch her and do bad things to her.
Ash saw this behavior if Isabella and smiled gently. " My name is Ash Anderson. What is your name?" Isabella didn't answer and stayed quiet.
" Isabella, do you want to go home. Back to the forest. Then I can send you there but there is a condition."
Isabella didn't see any lust in his eyes. His gentle words melted her silence. Isabella finally opened her mouth and spoke. " You want to sleep with me? Keep dreaming? I would rather die than sleep with a man whom I don't even love. You humans are all the same."
Ash knew that she only had seen the dark side of Humans. Because every human approach her because of their lust and to satisfy their desires.
" No, you misunderstood. I.... " Before Ash could continue Isabella interrupted Ash once again and spoke loudly. "I misunderstood you. I know what exactly you want. I want to sell me again and earn money. You humans are scumbag, hypocrite."Isabella angrily shouted.
" Listen to my words first then speak." Ash felt her pain when she spoke.
" I have a territory that I plan on building. To do that I need talented workers. I just happen to save you. How about this, you teach my salves your skills like literature, about magic etc for 1 year. After one year I promise that I will send you back home."
Isabella was surprised by Ash's words. She didn't thought that a human would want her as a teacher. Isabella was relieved that Ash had no evil intention against her.
" I don't trust humans. I learnt my lessons from my past mistakes."
Ash can guess from her words that Isabella must have been captured when she was betrayed by a human. Ash sighed and said.
" If you want, I am also ready to make an oath. Look if wanted to do something bad to you, then I would have done it already." Isabella thought for a moment. She realized that she was just taking her anger out on Ash.
Isabella smiled bitterly and said." I won't live more than 4 days." Ash looked very shocked. Isabella continued." I came to Carrion Swamp because I wanted to explore it. But Unfortunately I and my 9th rank elder was affected by the poison from Carrion Swamp. My elder died by letting me live. I consumed the life water to slow down the affect of poison. Now even if I return back home it's useless."
Suddenly Ash laughed which confused Isabella. Ash waved his hand and a glass of water appeared in his hand." This water can heal the poison from Carrion Swamp. This water will make you immune to Carrion Swamp poison ."
Isabella obviously didn't believe his nonsensical words. But she still drank the water because she wanted to mock Ash as a lair. But as soon as she drank the water, She felt a warm feeling. Isabella felt that strength was recovering. Because of the venom Isabella's rank had dropped to 4th rank from 7th rank.
Isabella felt that her body was healed. She also broke through 5th rank. After 10 minutes Isabella looked at Ash in curiosity. This man had given so many shocks and surprises. She was getting really curious about this man identity.
Isabella thought from Ash speed that he is a 9th rank expert. Isabella never heard of any person less than 20 years becoming a 9th rank expert. This made her respect Ash. If that wasn't enough, this man can also use teleportation, create clones of himself, have extremely beautiful eyes which makes him even more handsome.
" I agree." After a while Ash heard a voice. Ash wasn't surprised as he had expected her to agree. The reason why Ash revealed his face and eyes to Isabella because he wanted to make her curious about him. Curiosity is like a magnet.
"Good. I will take you to my home later. For now, let's eat something. I am sure you are hungry as well." Isabella blushed and nodded. Isabella didn't knew why but her cold attitude never worked on Ash. She never could maintain her cold attitude in front Ash. Maybe because Ash had given her too many shocks and surprises.
" Can I know your name?" Isabella asked. Ash looked at Isabella and replied. "My name is Ash Anderson." Isabella promised herself that she would remember this forever.
Ash clone returned with foods and clothes.
" Here, from now on wear this. If you don't like it then I will buy some other clothes." Ash bought few Kimonos from the system. Each yukata was 1 BCG. A red shiji floral yukata was given to Isabella.
Ash can buy anything From naruto and Solo leveling worlds.
She really liked the design of this dress. This design was something she had never seen before. She also had a instruction book on how to wear a yukata.
" Isabella you go take a bath first then wear this dress. I absolutely sure that you will look extremely beautiful in this yukata."
Isabella blushed and nodded, went to bathroom. Meanwhile, Ash made a clones of himself and let them do the cooking and cleaning.
