Evolving Ghost System: Phantom Universe Expansion Pack - Chapter 95: The Adopted Girl Billy

The little girl Harvard saved was known as Billy by her adopted father.

He found Billy inside of a small treasure chest like the one Smokey was found in in Normal City. She had the most beautiful pink hair, and seemed normal except when she got really angry she could cause an area to enter into a drought for hundreds of days.

Because of this, her father, Geral, did everything he could to make her happy for dozens of years before the Ghost Adventurer’s arrived. He took her out for walks every night, sang to her, and even brushed her hair hundreds of times a night so she would never stop smiling. However, that all changed when that one Ghost Adventurer arrived. Granddeath had singlehandedly ruined everything that Geral did with his beautiful daughter!

He could only hope by escaping to another continent with her that she’d be able to find a better life, but of course, now he was either dead or almost dead. Hamlord sighed and watched Billy snoring on the bed while they floated back towards the center of Central Continent. She-she really did look almost exactly like Candy Kid.

‘It’s her eyes. She has the same eyes as him. They’re so large I wonder how her eyes fit on her face.” Harvard brushed the girls pink hair back while she screamed in her sleep. She was definitely having a nightmare that involved her father.

He felt really bad because her father was most likely dead right now and she literally had to watch it happen. He only once had a couple get killed by the mafia when he was a lawyer. It was hard to imagine that this little girl would grow up and be fine. Unless, of course, he could save her father in the future. He planned on worrying about that at another time. “Anyways, I’ll figure out what to do about her later. For now, the most important thing to do is find Snow Lilly.”

“Harvard, I found a letter in her shoe!” Katie said, tears falling down her eyes. “I never have seen a sweeter letter in my life! It looks like she was an orphan! Aw, can we keep her?!”

“She’s not a dog, and you can’t just save innocent girls without thinking about the consequences!” Hamlord grinded his fist into a ball and gently hit the wall. “Come on! We don’t know anything about her, and she could have a strange ability! What were you thinking?”

“I was thinking that a little girl needed to be saved, and I had the power I needed to do it. What are you thinking about? You’re the one fawning over the girl! Hmph, it’s cute! I-I want to kiss you right now! I want to make a daughter! You’re the first man in both lives I ever kissed! And-and you even did other things to me too! I had to take a pregnancy test! I’m not even sure what we did, but it was amazing.”

‘Let’s just hope the little girl is safe with us for now. Because those eight diamond magnificent tombs don’t seem normal, and in fact I imagine a lot of people are being used to build them! If anything, the next thing we have to do after the Monsoon Kraken dies, is find out what those tombs are about and clear away the mayhem ripping about Dame Continent! Now thoguh, I think we finally arrived over the Monsoon Kraken’s palace! Let’s infiltrate the belly of the beast!”

“Hehe, just you,” Katie sighed and walked into the little girls room. “And read the letter on the way! You’re going to be shocked what you read, promise!”

‘Just read the letter on the way. She realizes I’m going underwater right?’

Harvard watched the letter he put in his pocket leak with ink before he sighed and dove further into the ocean. ‘System, I know I don’t usually talk to you, but any chance you know the contents of the letter?’

[System response: No response]

‘Well, that’s why I don’t talk to you I guess,’ Harvard smiled while his body slowly drifted underwater. He noticed a few thousand sharks marching in formation from up above, and took a deep breath. Though he could breathe underwater, it was hard to get over the instinct to hold his breath while he activated Ultimate Stealth and Double Stealth.

The sharks turned around and marched towards a small village while a few weapons were rolled out from holes in the bottom of the ocean.

‘This must be where Tricky got her weapons. Hmmm, and now? Where’s Snow Lilly?’

Harvard activated Ultimate Tracking and looked down on the floor. There had to be something around him that was useful.

[Tracks of Snow Lilly]

[Snow Lilly appears to have been guided into Dasota’s room. From these tracks, it appears by the weight she was using when walking that she is sexually attracted to Dasota. Following this path will lead you to Dasota’s room. She is most likely currently engaged in some type of intimate activity by now judging by the weight of the tracks. You can also tell by these tracks she is deeply in love and enamored by Dasota, and that she feels the love will be returned by her. She seems to be wishing that Dasota will join your side of the battle. All this can really be picked up by the energy left over by her footsteps]

‘That…. That was amazingly easy,’ Harvard began to follow after the tracks and look around. The Monsoon Village under the sea seemed to already have hundreds of NPCs living in it, and not only that, they seemed to be treated pretty well. Unlike Ghost Adventurers who often harassed them to get Quests, the so called Double Fin Shark Warriors were helping them get food. ‘Luckiy, it seems like no one is noticing me because Stealth is activated. Now, come on, Snow Lilly, please tell me you’re willing to come back.”
