Global Game: I Can Choose Instance Rewards-Chapter 225 - 211: Conversation, Mysterious Connection
"Master, where can I find something to eat?" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
"..."
Wang Zhifan was immediately a bit speechless by this succubus who seemed a bit dumb. This fellow took more time to think than Yi Lin and seemed to think harder, yet came up with such a fundamental question? Could it be just as much of a foodie as some chestnut-colored fellow?
"Yali, that’s a good question you’ve asked."
Even though he was a bit speechless inside, Wang Zhifan still used an encouraging tone to speak to the succubus maid with wheat-colored skin. He wasn’t too harsh when dealing with others, let alone with his own people.
"Before answering this question, I want to know if you have to eat fresh blood food to maintain a normal state. If you keep eating cooked food, like roasted chicken, would it have any adverse effects on you?"
Wang Zhifan remembered reading in the introduction to succubi that they needed to consume fresh blood and flesh daily, which prompted him to ask this question.
"Master, we can eat cooked food, but our staple must be fresh blood flesh, as we need to absorb the life energy in fresh meat. If we eat cooked food for a long time, our combat power will definitely decline significantly."
Standing nearby, the fair-skinned Yi Lin noticed Yali hadn’t answered Wang Zhifan’s question immediately, so she quickly provided an answer.
"I see..."
After hearing the response, a thoughtful expression appeared on Wang Zhifan’s face. He realized that the two beautiful and charming beings in front of him truly belonged to the category of magical creatures, and making them live entirely according to human habits was impossible.
"Let me handle your food issue. I’ll go out later to buy some fresh meat and live chickens for you to deal with temporarily. If you want anything else, let me know later, but let’s be clear upfront, eating humans is not allowed here."
At this point, Wang Zhifan emphasized this particular sentence, as he, a human, would not allow things that went beyond his personal beliefs to happen.
"Can’t we eat humans? Not even those that are already killed enemies?"
Yi Lin immediately showed a surprised expression at this, even mentioning a more extreme scenario, hoping Wang Zhifan would make an exception for them.
"No, you cannot eat any humans, but you can eat other creatures, as long as I can acquire them."
Wang Zhifan replied with a stern expression immediately. He was not going to compromise on this principle.
"Alright... looks like we’ll miss out on those delicacies from inherited memories..."
Seeing her master’s resolute attitude, Yi Lin’s beautiful, fair face immediately showed a very regretful expression. It was evident she had a certain fixation on eating humans, but unfortunately, she met a master with a firm stance.
"You guys... why are you so fixated on eating humans? What’s so great about that? Isn’t beef more delicious? Such a large creature, its life energy shouldn’t be much less than that of a human."
After reiterating this dietary principle, Wang Zhifan proceeded to discuss another rather critical issue with the two succubus maids in front of him.
"Besides this eating aspect, I also have to arrange your accommodations. I suppose you succubi need to rest and sleep daily?"
Wang Zhifan asked them with a slightly uncertain tone, as this aspect hadn’t been covered in the information previously provided by the den of magical creatures.
"No, Master, we don’t need sleep."
Perhaps feeling her earlier performance was lacking, the succubus Yali with wheat-colored skin quickly answered first.
"If we’re not hungry, injured, or just been through a major battle, we don’t need to rest specifically."
She quickly added a few words to correct Wang Zhifan’s understanding of their kind of magical creatures.
"You don’t need rest or sleep? That’s kind of impressive, like the perfect workaholic."
Upon learning this characteristic of their kind, Wang Zhifan couldn’t help but feel a bit envious. He recalled the magical creatures he encountered in previous scenarios, and indeed, in his memory, he had never seen any magical creature sleeping soundly—they were all roaming around seeking prey, which was vastly different from normal creatures in this regard.
"Since you don’t need sleep, then I won’t allocate special rooms for you. You can rest anywhere but my bedroom on the second floor if you’re tired, or you could rest in the Deceit Realm. I’ve already granted you permission to go to the Deceit Realm freely, as there will be plenty of things needing your attention over there in the future..."
After clarifying the accommodations with the two succubi, Wang Zhifan proceeded to talk about attire and hygiene, focusing mainly on how often they should bathe and change clothes to maintain personal cleanliness.
However, Wang Zhifan was somewhat surprised that the two succubi were quite knowledgeable about such things already. Their inherited memories contained extensive information on attire and fashion; otherwise, they wouldn’t have donned the maid outfits so effortlessly when Wang Zhifan provided them earlier. Maintaining personal hygiene and cleanliness seemed to be an ingrained instinct for them, probably because as succubi, they needed to rely on personal charm to beguile targets, unlike the purely physically powerful magical creatures that depend on brute force. Therefore, they had a knack in this area.
The only thing Wang Zhifan needed to teach them was how to use the bathroom and washing machine, as such modern conveniences wouldn’t appear in their inherited memories.
Thus, Wang Zhifan spent over half an hour ensuring the two succubi maids had a comprehensive understanding of their work environment and duties, after which they started working officially.
Yi Lin chose to wash the clothes Wang Zhifan had changed out of yesterday and clean the interior of the manor’s rooms, while Yali opted to tidy up the garage, garden, and lawn outside the manor.
They quickly became busy, given that as succubi, they held high standards for cleanliness and aesthetics. The hygiene conditions that passed in Wang Zhifan’s eyes were unacceptable in theirs.
"It’s like I’ve acquired two maids? Not a bad feeling, at least as long as they’re not left starving, there’s no risk of them betraying me."
After acquiring the large estate of East City’s villa, Wang Zhifan soon understood why those wealthy individuals needed to hire servants. Originally, due to having too many personal secrets, he had to give up on this idea, but now it was unexpectedly resolved by the den of magical creatures, making it a welcome surprise.
Moreover, after some time had passed, he discovered another rather peculiar thing, given his mental attribute was as high as 111.
"It seems I have a very subtle, mysterious connection with Yi Lin and Yali? It’s not my imagination... My perception is already unusually high and particularly sensitive when it comes to things related to myself."
At this moment, having assigned various tasks to the two succubi maids, Wang Zhifan was just preparing to relax for a while when he suddenly realized that there was a special, mysterious connection between him and the two succubi maids. This connection wasn’t referring to the mental connection between master and servant, but rather a more illusory, profound, extremely subtle yet truly existing special connection!
"How odd... why has such a weak bond emerged between me and these two relatively average succubi? Even the den of magical creatures that produced them didn’t have such an effect..."
Wang Zhifan, not one to let anything unusual slip by, furrowed his brows in contemplation. It was the first time he encountered such a strange occurrence, and even if it seemed like a negligible anomaly similar to an illusion, he didn’t intend to let it slide carelessly.
"Could it be that? No way... could it be that easy? But it seems to be the only explanation... The supreme blood enhancement I obtained after clearing the scenario yesterday appears to be the only thing capable of bringing about such a change..."
After a while, Wang Zhifan finally realized what that mysterious connection was—it was a high-level ability that stemmed from the essence enhancement he gained in the previous scenario.
