"That damn Gray Serpent!"
At this moment, Miss Raven had already cursed her adoptive father six ways to Sunday in her mind.
Although she had long known the guy was unreliable, suggesting that she could easily approach that person just by dressing up prettily and wearing animal ears… well, all she could say was that he should just hurry up and die!
Didn't that mean that she had to sell her body to complete the task?!
While mercenaries who lived by the coin weren't strangers to selling anything, Raven considered herself quite self-respecting, okay?!
"Whatever, it's not like I haven't done something similar before."
Beauty was also a weapon. In the past, she hadn't been above using her looks to bewitch opponents before sending them off to the afterlife. This was just another instance of that.
Who told her to be so useless and have the Seventh Divine Key - Seven Thunders of Retribution? She could only grit her teeth and try to fix the mistake she made herself.
The thought that her weapon was stolen, yet she had to resort to such underhanded means to approach and investigate the culprit, filled Miss Raven with a surreal feeling.
When had World Serpent fallen to such a sorry state? Logically speaking, shouldn't they directly take revenge with blood?
Of course, Raven didn't doubt the effectiveness of Gray Serpent's advice.
After all, she had already seen it during their brief encounter.
That person was definitely a seriously dangerous lesbian!
"I have to dress up as… cute as possible."
Recalling Gray Serpent's instructions, Miss Raven's lips twitched uncontrollably.
Seriously, man, I'm a mercenary, okay?
"I wonder if I look… cute like this."
Right now, due to Gray Serpent's specific instructions, she had meticulously dressed herself, even though she felt extremely humiliated.
She had not only taken off her hood but also applied eyeliner, lipstick, and foundation.
And even more importantly, this damn pink dress!!!
This was the first time in her life she had ever worn something like this, along with this thing on her head—
These beast (cat) ear hair clips… Gray Serpent, you bastard!!
Silently cursing her scamming foster father, Raven noticed an extremely fervent gaze—
It was from that man named Jiang Qiao, whom the higher-ups wanted to invite into the organization.
Miss Raven didn't know where that dangerous pink lesbian was, but based on their last encounter, she was clearly near this man.
Having lost Seven Thunders of Retribution and unable to use its high-dimensional observation mode for target acquisition, all she could do was actively appear near this man to attract that dangerous woman who was hidden somewhere.
And so, she directly hopped the wall into Raiden's residence courtyard and ran right into Elysia, who was enjoying the night view.
Feeling that kind of gaze, Miss Raven instinctively shrunk her neck.
No, this feeling of her entire body crawling, as if she was about to be stripped naked…
It's similar, very similar, almost ninety percent like that pink girl she encountered before. No, the way this guy is looking at me is even more intense than that Pervert!
If she wasn't certain he was a man, Miss Raven might have wondered if this Jiang Qiao was also a lesbian like the one she met before.
But Raven didn't care about Elysia. Instead, she was being very cautious and apprehensive as she waited.
If that person was indeed near this man called Jiang Qiao, then seeing her appear again, [she] definitely wouldn't ignore it, right?
"Ahem~ What do we have here? A little girl sneaking into someone's home without permission… that's very naughty behavior, you know~"
Raven was stunned.
She stared at the man in front of her.
This familiar feeling…
"You wouldn't happen to be a woman in disguise, would you?!"
A shiver running down her spine, Raven looked at the smiling Elysia and couldn't help but ask.
This preference, this smile, this familiar way of speaking.
Damn it, this feeling is exactly the same! It's just a different face. If she had to point out a difference, it might be that the intensity is slightly less.
Maybe… the purity was a bit lower?
Elysia, who was a bit unable to keep up the act after hearing Raven's words, clearly understood the situation, she hadn't deliberately tried to look like Jiang Qiao—she didn't even know what he was like. But, she had actually been seen through in a second?!
Was her acting that bad?!
The fat woman began to doubt her life choices. She felt like while she might not be good at impersonating a bad Jiang Qiao, at the very least, she should be able to play a decent, handsome young man, right?
No, I refuse to accept this!
I, Elysia, will definitely not be seen through so easily!
Especially not by such a pretty girl…
The pink frilly dress, the animal accessories… even though they looked a little cheap, they were hitting This Fat Woman's strike zone perfectly, as if they were deliberately designed to appeal to her tastes!
She couldn't take it! She couldn't take it at all!
Unbearable, completely unbearable!
"Oh my, how should I answer that question? Hmm… perhaps you'd like to experience it firsthand?"
Elysia, who was incredibly excited, directly turned into [Jiang Qiao], and went beside Raven. In a very close distance, she teased her with that hoarse voice that belonged to Jiang Qiao.
If it were Mei, she would probably blush shyly.
If it was Kiana, then she would have probably done a shoulder throw.
And if it was Bronya… prepare for the iron fist of Project Bunny!
As for Raven?
At that moment, her expression was uncertain.
Acting, she was still acting, huh?
I can tell with one look that you're Elysia!
I get it now, I understand it all!
The pink pervert is actually this man called Jiang Qiao!
As for the fact that she had previously seen him standing together with that girl, then that was definitely some kind of illusion that this guy had used!
Otherwise, how else would you explain the sudden appearance of the pink pervert?
As for the difference in gender, the world was big and there was everything. Who knows, maybe this guy has a special ability to transform from a man into a woman.
Raven, who had come to a conclusion, instantly had a plan.
She stared at [Jiang Qiao], her heart filled with a cold laugh.
You're still pretending that you don't know me, huh?
You stole my weapon, and you even groped me like I was some piece of pork, and now you're acting like you don't know me.
Alright, then I'll play along with you! Let's see how long you can keep up the act!
Although Raven really wanted to reveal her true nature and use force to make him show his true form,
Unfortunately, Grey Serpent, that jerk, had asked her to investigate the other party's situation and under no circumstances use force against him.
And to do that, even if she had to seduce him, she had to finish her mission.
...Damn it!
For the money, for the island villa!
I'll endure it! I'll endure it, okay?
Thinking of this, Raven restrained her anger and forced a smile on her face, greeting the very close Elysia:
"—Ahaha, my name is Natasha Cioara~"
