Oops, I became the witch's substitute

"And then? Who are you going to ask for this money?"

"Why are you looking for a grudge? It just so happens that we have some connection with the succubus, let's go."

Fili went to find the succubus. The succubus of Bereda had said before that they were not doing very well and it was difficult for them to stand out in the local involutionary market. Fili happened to have Arabelle's token in her hand. Although she could not get close to the strange succubus directly, at least she could prove that she had a good relationship with the succubus.

"Yes, we are from Miriam, and we are partners with Arabelle. In fact, I have friendships with succubi from many places." Fili's goal was to get closer to the local succubus leader.

On Miriam's side, Arabelle's men were busy with performances and work every day, and the succubi were full of energy. In Bereda's shop, even the succubi who were doing marginal or even straight work, had a large number of them wasting time in the shop and slacking off.

"A witch who has a relationship with a succubus is really rare? So you are here to help us?"

"Of course it's not free. I think you can understand that the price of Bereda's alchemical puppets is more competitive than yours. They are slightly inferior in appearance, but better looking than village girls, and cost-effective. Besides, succubi are found all over the world, while alchemical puppets with good experience only exist in Bereda. However, the alchemical puppets on the market do not have good creativity and service models, and customers with various appetites cannot be fully satisfied. If you introduce a batch of puppets into your store and provide customized script services, with one succubus operating multiple puppets, providing unlimited services from dreams to reality, and even satisfying the curiosity of some people, can you attract customers?"

In addition to making promises, Fili also elaborated on many innovative points about the service and opened up the succubus's mind. Some of the content would certainly not pass the review in the previous life, but there was no problem in the different world. However, Fili would stop every time she talked about the key points and would not give details.

After that, Fili pointed out: "Although I have a better relationship with the succubus, Bereda also has flying demons, dream demons, other monster girl races, or human stores. If this model is implemented in detail, it will not be a problem to attract two or three out of ten tourists to Bereda, let alone dominate it."

The succubus counted the accounts and said a little depressed: "Okay, I admit that you are right, but I am sorry, we are so poor now that we almost have to suck the essence for free. We want to attack ordinary people at night, but we can't afford to buy alchemical puppets. What's more, many succubi have left Bereda in recent years. Even if you provide puppets, our girls can't handle it with the efficiency of a one-person orchestra."

Fili clapped her hands gently. "You don't have to worry about that. I have enough alchemical puppets. The personnel and plan will be arranged separately. You just need to prepare the succubus for work. To be honest, it will be a bit busy to operate the alchemical puppets at that time. Your service will have a fixed process."

The succubus leader thought calmly. They didn't spend anything in this transaction. They were idle in the store and didn't worry about being cheated. "No problem. I accept this proposal."

Fili and Carol came out of the store soon: "Hmm... It seems that the plan is going well. We have an alchemist and a manager. Who do you plan to let control these puppets next?"

Fili pointed to this happy street and said, "Don't worry. I call this plan the "Guide to Evaluating Different Races' Customs Girls". The essence is to take people on a tour. This street looks noisy, but each race is fighting on their own and the flow of customers is dispersed. The whole lacks a platform. Now we just need to build the platform."

Then Fili walked into the third largest gambling house in Bereda and said a plan that could bring in stable customers. The plan was for Succubus to be the leader and lead the guests to tour Bereda with rich services. One of the fixed routes was this gambling house.

Fili said, "Those who can manipulate alchemical puppets are people with magical powers. There are many idle monster girls in Bereda. I have their cooperation intentions. None of their stores can take in so many alchemical puppets, but purchasing them in batches is enough to digest a thousand magic puppets. And don't use such a crude word as puppets. They should be called 'golden magic puppets'. You can draw up cooperation contracts with these operators separately and specify attendance indicators. A simple calculation will show that if they have full attendance every month, you can attract more customers to your gambling house. In the long run, it is definitely a sure win. You just need to do a good job of management and maintenance."

There are many people who come to Bereda to live a life of luxury and debauchery. There are also many wealthy people in this city with great potential, but they are just scattered. Most of the managers of this city are busy with alchemy and immortality and do not manage these things carefully at all.

Soon, Fili discussed the specific plan with the casino in detail, including the operating methods and models, and the two parties signed a cooperation agreement.

Now that the alchemy workshop has puppets, the succubus and other alien races have a place to go. The gambling house integrated the resources according to Fili's request and concluded a contract with the gods related to the contract.

Fili facilitated the deal between the three parties, took discounts and commissions of varying degrees from the three parties, and finally gave the money to Carol.

"Well, here you go, housekeeper."

"Tsk... It looked like the three companies were just trying to trick people, but in the end, all three of them actually accepted it."

Carol took the bank deposit slip and looked at the numbers printed with alchemical ink on it in disbelief. Then she remembered something and pinched Fili's nose.

"Don't make trouble."

"I say, if you pinch your nose, your mouth will be free, right?"

Fili was speechless. Even if she was a hero, she still had to breathe when she had nothing to do. Did they really think she could photosynthesize? But Carol seemed quite unconvinced. Fili tried to shake her head, but Carol didn't let go. When she couldn't help but open her mouth and take a deep breath, Carol suddenly came close to her.

Chapter 223 This chapter has not been approved

The purpose of Fili's detour was to get Carol's promise for free, but also to save some money. She was about to rush to Perris's house and kick the door, but this unexpected kiss was really beyond her imagination.

The nose is pinched forcibly, and the kiss starts when the mouth is opened to breathe.

"Hmm~Woohoo~!"

Fili made a strange sound and could only ask in telepathy.

"Carol?"

"The content of the bet is to unconditionally agree to one of the other party's requests. You will make more outrageous requests to me anyway, so why not I take the initiative first?"

Carol pushed Fili all the way to the wall, and they looked at each other. Fili, who was frightened at first, tensed her body, but gradually relaxed. Maybe it was because she had just drunk honey water, the breath gave people a slight sweet illusion.

They were just a little distance apart, their noses seemed to be touching. Carol whispered, "In the limited hundreds of years I have, I have spent most of my time traveling, collecting materials, and conducting research. I have occasionally had business partners, but I have never had such an interesting feeling as you."

Fili's eyes widened. She (he) had never had such an experience in her (his) lifetime. She couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her mouth with the back of her hand. The wetness and residual warmth from the sneak attack just now were still there. The soft and sweet touch echoed along with Carol's voice. She even looked a little shy, and then her expression showed a hint of anger.

Fili dodged and said, "It's a weird joke to make."

Carol hit back: "This is not a joke. Didn't you say this when we were drinking? You were the first one to mention that you wanted to exchange half of your life with me."

Fili argued, "That's just a line I read in a book before."

Carol held Fili's hand with her other hand, interlacing their fingertips. "But I don't want to let you go now. I want to travel with you and stay together more often. I will help you with your dreams, and I hope to have your support for my dreams. I will use my talent in alchemy to protect you."

Feili's heartbeat quickened, and she asked a fatal question: "But have you ever thought about a fatal question? You just think Feili is pretty and cute, but I am a man, Feilin, sober up."

Carol laughed. "I do like Fili more, but Felyn is also very handsome and gentle. What do you think is the difference in the eyes of an alchemist? No matter what you look like on the outside, I like your interesting soul. Now looking back at our acquaintance in Miriam, you showed a lot of clumsy flaws and tried hard to maintain your witch persona. At that time, I thought that many of your things were accomplished by deception, but through Arabelle, I can see that you are also very capable in business. This time you got something for nothing, which really impressed me."

Fili felt a sense of being recognized in her heart, and she avoided looking away for a moment, but then she made a "Woo~!" sound, and Carol hugged her tightly and kissed her greedily.

"Carol... um... I..."

In her heart, Fili felt that it was not good to have such a relationship with her friend, but her body would not lie. On this damn night, under the protection of Qingyue, her real chest was gently rubbed by Carol. Her strength seemed to disappear, and her lips were sucked greedily. She could not help but follow Carol's lead.

Then I discovered one thing: Carol actually didn't know how to kiss, and neither of them knew how to kiss either. But it seemed that through a short period of practice, they slowly found the comfortable feeling.

Kissing is a magical thing. It seems that when I was a single dog in my previous life, I often complained about eating each other's saliva or something. Maybe it was jealousy? Now I feel it lightly, but my brain feels a little blank. My body, from hormones to DNA, is giving orders, telling me that I want to have a relationship beyond friendship with the woman in front of me.

How much time had passed? How many minutes and seconds? It couldn't be too long. As her breathing became increasingly rapid, Carol stopped kissing and pushed Fili down. Following the momentum of the push, Carol wiped the corners of her mouth with the back of her hand as if she was riding on Fili, revealing an evil smile.

"I'm really surprised. You were so confident when you were in charge of the situation these days, and you didn't show any weakness when you were fighting against Aviles. But now you are so soft and submissive. It looks like I'm bullying you."

"…………Um, stop making noise, I'm thinking, uh-huh..."

Without time to think, Carol lowered her head again.

Suddenly, the sound of flapping wings came from overhead and landed beside the two of them. Marian appeared and squatted beside them, her expression full of surprise.

"What are you doing? Carol, are you going to eat Fili? Sucking blood...? Absorbing essence? Or some evil spell? Even Fili will be suppressed?"

The atmosphere was like a pile of building blocks that suddenly collapsed when pushed. Fili's defense was completely broken. She disappeared in an instant with a false invisibility. Carol stood up silently without looking at Marian.

Marian was puzzled and came closer with curiosity: "Wow, how did you do it? Tell me! How did you suppress Fili?"

Carol didn't say anything. Marian moved back and forth to the left and then to the right, like a curious baby who kept asking questions. Carol returned to the room woodenly, stretched out her trembling hands and took out a bottle of potion from her pocket. She looked at the label and saw that it was a sedative. After drinking it, she sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, with the potion still flowing down the corners of her mouth.

"Hmm, it's enchantment, right?"

Yes, it’s because of the charm.

Being bewitched is a good excuse, and it is convenient and easy to use in traditional stories. When you are excited, you can say that you are in love with each other. When you keep your distance and calm down, you can say that it was bewitched that caused this.

Finally, Carol held her face and touched her lips: "Fili tastes really good."

When Marian saw the door of the room was closed, she let out a sigh of relief. The innocent look in her eyes disappeared, and her intelligence rarely took the upper hand. She clapped her hands and shook her head.

"Two people suddenly hugged each other in the backyard. What really happened? Who started it? It seemed to be Carol? Fili is very cute, but why didn't Fili resist? Did she like it too? Or was it..."

This is the tactic? Breaking the weakness?

Marian touched her lips, as if she could avenge the sword attack on her.

Fili tidied her clothes in a deserted place, from the collar to the skirt, and patted them up and down before she breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed her dizzy head. How did things come to this?

Carol is a very good friend, like a female brother. We can keep in touch with each other when we play together. I can always get what I want when I ask Carol to make some props from my previous life. We have been going on adventures together recently, but we have only known each other for a year. Why is this happening?

Then Fili lowered her head and clasped her hands in a daze: "She is also petite and soft, with a nice and sweet voice..."

Afterwards, I thought about Carol's cuteness, the experiences of the past year, the panic when we first met under the Bahamut crisis, and the process of working together to find a way to deal with Abiles. During this period, we continued to get to know each other, and felt Carol's charm from the perspective of Filin and Fili. We were as good as brothers, female brothers?

Chapter 224: Fraud Goddess Invitation

It's so embarrassing. Thanks to Carol's mischief yesterday, Fili felt very embarrassed today. The main body simply stopped maintaining Fili and switched to Fili to forget the fact that Carol kissed her.

The first time they met was during the Fantasy Bahamut Desperate Battle. They had been in a cooperative relationship and Filin didn't want to break the contract... It seemed that they didn't agree on anything, so there was no question of breaking the contract. Anyway, there were some misunderstandings about some things, and he always regarded Carol as a friend.

Something like what happened yesterday happened suddenly. After the impulse, he felt embarrassed. Philin was thinking about how to greet Carol today, and he was not mentally prepared at all.

However, this awkwardness did not last long. After breakfast, Philin and Carol shook hands and made peace. Their voices sounded a little awkward, but at the same time they had let go of their past grudges.

"Why are you being so distant? Just be like usual!"

“That’s right, buddy!!”

The two men held the purse, high-fived, and divided the money, as if nothing had happened yesterday.

Marian came out of the room yawning, and looked a little uninterested when she saw Carol and Philin.

"Where's Fili? Why is it that this guy has been making breakfast lately?" Marian pointed at Fili. She was not familiar with Fili and even kept in the dark about him, but she couldn't resist Fili's delicious cooking. "Let me tell you, Carol pushed Fili against the wall yesterday..."

Feilin immediately covered her face, Carol interrupted by slamming the table, and Marian looked at her with interest.

The goddess's mind is not that complicated, she likes everything that is good-looking, and her likes are divided into different levels, such as liking works of art, liking beautiful faces, and liking beautiful bodies. She doesn't have a concept of the last one, but that doesn't stop her from praising beautiful faces.

Carol was concerned about protecting Filin and didn't want to emphasize the matter of Fili, so as not to reveal the truth: "I saw it, yes, we are in that kind of relationship."

Who is it? Feilin shouted in his heart. As a mortal, he had a fiancée. The degree of love between them was not particularly high, but after all, it was the kind of blind date that was acceptable. That was the ordinary and normal engagement in Feilin's mind.

Marian grabbed her wings and scratched her cheek: "Oh my, oh my~ Do you want me to describe it in detail? Maybe Lord Filin will be jealous."

Feilin raised her hands in surrender, trying to remain calm: "Don't drag me into your girls' fights. I'm just a staff member at best. If I'm redundant here, then move out. It's really inconvenient in a sense."

Marian waved her hand generously: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, you don't live here all day and often spend the night outside. No one cares about you."

Please, Marian, I will feel lost as a Filin when you say that!

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sharp sound of electricity in Marian's ears. She tilted her head subconsciously in pain, but there was nothing wrong.

"Who talked to you again and got rejected?" Carol changed the subject upon seeing this.

Jasmine said unhappily, "It's that fraud goddess again. She suddenly contacted me frequently one week a week. The message she sent was probably asking me to help find someone, a boy who looks very similar to Feilin, who she said cheated her."

Feilin touched his chin. After listening to Marian's description, he felt that the person might be himself: "From the description, it seems to be me, but I have never seen other goddesses. If I had seen them, I would definitely have an impression of them. The key is that if I really meet a goddess, I will not lie based on the principle of saving trouble."

To deceive a deity, one must at least make a three-year plan.

Filin was confused at first. After he came to Bereda, he had deceived countless people with his two identities. On the surface, Fili's identity was still manipulating public opinion in Miriam. He couldn't remember who he had deceived specifically. However, if he said it was a week, he could narrow the target.

But the goddess of fraud, it sounds like she is of very high status, how could he be able to deceive such a being?

In this land, among the gods that Philin has come into contact with, the concept of Morrigan's performance is difficult to involve divinity, and it is tentatively classified as a third-level god. This crow head is like an ordinary creature that has evolved, and it can bring inexplicable confidence to mortals. But Brother Arius, this black phoenix god has a transcendent feeling, but it was beaten into a deep sleep.

That's right. Filin has always maintained a low-key development path. Before Miriam, every aspect of her daily life involved training in strength and skills. If her magic power was not high, she could make up for it with deception. Kalan had started dream experiments before, studying the dreams of ordinary people and harvesting the emotions of death row prisoners to enhance her deception power. With the blessing of the Blue Moon, she often communicated with Luna, and conquered the god of charm and change, Gashiya. Her power gradually approached that of Marigold.

The advancement of the path brings a feeling that powerful mortal individuals can continuously evolve to the level of godhood through self-improvement, break through the boundaries of biology and time, achieve immortality, become human nuclear bombs, and then continue to evolve upward, eventually approaching Marian's current level.

Fili was not yet a god yet, but she could still launch a sneak attack on Marian. Even after she achieved the status of a god, she still did it anyway, so she had no awe for the concept of gods.

"Bereda is too small. Right now, we are only carrying out Marian's procurement plan. Recently, several big families in Bereda have been working hard to operate factories in order to cooperate with the Holy Nation of Arius. It is possible that the Goddess of Fraud's industry is involved here. She has realized the crisis."

This was what Film thought of first. Marian's plan was to let the Bereda industry flow upstream and downstream. The upstream was the raw materials, and the downstream was the commodities. Before long, Miriam's major financial groups would, under the guidance of the succubus Arabelle, strangle the upstream and raise the price of raw materials. Marian would slowly reduce the demand and cut off the downstream demand, and Bereda would eventually collapse due to overcapacity.

Because of the payment process in this world, this kind of collapse will happen even faster.

Today, Filin is going to help Xia Duoli take back the property, and then play the game of passing the parcel. Anyway, if he can cheat as many people as possible, then the economy of Bereda will only be more exciting from then on.

"But why does this goddess of fraud always look for you?" Carol was a little confused.

"She must be trying to deceive me." Marian's tone was very certain.

Feilin tilted his head: "Why do you think so?"

Marian answered directly: "When we first met, she mentioned that there was a problem with the contract I signed with Bereda, and recommended a more profitable business to me. I thought that the contract between Bereda and I was a trap set by Fili. How can a goddess with the word "fraud" in her priesthood be a good person?"

Feilin was stunned. No, wait, why did it feel like Feili was scolded as well?

Marian continued, "Arius once taught me that, except for the closest relatives and loved ones, no one in this world would sincerely help others make money without asking for anything in return. Yes, it means making money, not helping. That's probably what it means. Anyway, I don't believe in this so-called goddess of fraud. She definitely has bad intentions."

The world is bustling with people seeking profit. Making money is profit, but helping others is good.

Feilin was silent for three seconds, then his eyes turned and he said, "Well, Jasmine, why don't you talk to her and hear what she has to say."

Seeing this, Marian looked at Filin, then at Carol. Carol nodded slightly to indicate that Filin could be trusted. Filin shrugged and let Marian think whatever she wanted. Marian examined Filin and felt a sense of familiarity. Perhaps he was someone related to Fili.

"Okay, I'll ask."

After a while, Marian sent a message.

"She said that Bereda was importing a large amount of raw materials from outside and that some of the in-demand products could make a lot of money. She asked me if I was willing to invest money."

Carol held her forehead with her hand: "No, she is a goddess, and you are also a goddess. Why are you just standing here to torture the human race?"

Feilin thought about it for a while, thinking about what happened recently. Even the passing-the-parcel scam had just begun. As a goddess of fraud, it was not surprising that she came up with this trick: "Okay, Marian, let's take out some money and follow."

Jasmine said exaggeratedly: "You are okay, you will definitely lose money."

Feilin shook his head: "Even if it is a scam, the earlier you enter the market, the earlier you make money. The later you enter the market, the more you will lose. At the beginning, we invest more money, strictly supervise, and when we make money, we withdraw the principal and enter the market again with the profit. Repeat this process, that's it."
