The Legendary Ghost Hunter-Chapter 179: Target Encounter

"So? Is there anything else you wish to ask me? This is your chance," Evelyn said as the two walked boldly through the streets. "Remember, the more you know about me, the more accurate your Shapeshift will be."

Finn scoffed. "And you'll just answer every question I ask?"

"Hm… that depends. If it's too private… say, my credit card number, then I obviously won't tell you. If you ask for something like my bust size though… I'm an H-cup~"

"I don't recall asking," Finn muttered. Evelyn giggled softly, but it wasn't a high-pitched one like young girls. Instead, her 'giggles' were far more mature and 'controlled'.

Still, Finn was hardly surprised, regarding her cup size. After all, Evelyn had the body of a model, something every man lusted for and every woman was envious of. Her large breasts just made her figure even more alluring than it already was.

"So… where are we heading?" Finn asked hesitantly, glancing left and right. His mask covered his entire face, but he could still see perfectly through the visors. The Underground City was by no means beautiful, but it was interesting to see all the different buildings and stores all around.

"Hm… yesterday, you were looking for weapons when my little brother found you, correct?" Evelyn asked after a short while.

Finn tilted his head a little. "Your little brother…?"

"The man wearing a fox mask. He is my brother, and also my most trusted subordinate next to the director I appointed to take care of the guild in my absence."

"Huh… he's your brother?" Finn murmured. "Didn't know. But yes, I was looking for weapons at the time."

"I see. In that case… I know a good place. Let's go, shall we?"

"… Alright."

Seeing no reason to refuse, Finn agreed with a nod. Evelyn, having received his consent, placed a hand on his shoulder and drew closer to him alluringly. The crowd around them gasped at this movement from the Underground City's Carmen, renowned for her beauty and status.

"…?" Finn was confused, but Evelyn merely smiled alluringly and whispered the name of one of her many Abilities.

"Portale."

In an instant, the two were transported to what seemed like a massive auction house. Though it really wasn't one, it had the luxurious appearance and grand feeling of one. The building's exterior was made of white marble, with multiple pillars surrounding it and supporting the immense roof.

Needless to say, this place was reserved for the extremely wealthy only, just like the 5-star hotel Evelyn owned. As such, there weren't too many people about, and the few that were here were too scared or too engrossed in their own business to strike up a conversation with Evelyn, despite being on roughly the same status level.

That is, except for a certain man.

"Why hello there, my dear Carmen," an overweight man hollered lustfully, walking over as soon as Evelyn and Finn entered the building. "Came here in search of a weapon, have you? Would you like a taste of the one in my pants?"

'... That was kind of smooth, not even going to lie,' Finn thought.

But Evelyn showed no reaction of being affected by this vulgar question, and instead smiled in response.

"Sorry, but… fufu, I doubt a weapon that can barely even tickle would be a good one."

'… Ouch.'

"Tch…" The man snorted in a manner befitting of his pig mask. "I'll make you beg for it one day, Carmen. And that day is not soon off."

"Ah, but will you?" Evelyn laughed, then slid her arms around Finn's and hugged him close. "My boyfriend will protect me. Isn't that so?"

She looked up at Finn with a mature and happy smile on her face, to which Finn gave a brisk nod, playing along. This caused the pig-masked man's body to tremble in anger a bit, as seen from the red wine in his glass shaking. Mission success, so it would seem.

"This guy… he's your boyfriend?" The pig-masked man growled. "Heh… I never thought you'd find one."

"My, my… are you jealous, perhaps?" Evelyn taunted, shutting one eye seductively. This only infuriated the pig-masked man even more as his knuckles whitened, but he had the self-control to not go wild in a public space like this. With a snort, he turned around and began walking away.

"You'll be mine soon enough, Carmen. And as for that little boyfriend of yours… heh. I might make him watch as I have my way with you."

As he disappeared from sight and earshot, Finn spoke.

"… Quite the vulgar man."

"Indeed he is," Evelyn replied with a sigh, pressing her soft breasts against Finn's arm. "But you'll get rid of him for me, won't you?"

"That's our deal."

"Fufu~ keep that up, and I might actually make you my boyfriend~"

Finn had no intention for that to happen, but he did want her to let go of him already. Tilting his head downwards at where Evelyn had latched onto his arm, he spoke again.

"… Do you mind?"

"Hey now, his subordinates may still be watching. He has eyes everywhere, after all. We should stay like this until we're finished with our business here, mkay?"

Finn could hardly argue against that since he didn't know that man's powers very well, so he fell into silence and obliged.

He felt that, thanks to Zelestria, he was becoming more and more conscious of the feeling of 'lust'. He was pretty sure she let him keep this feeling unlike other emotions since he needed to engage in sexual intercourse with her for efficient Soul transferring. Without lust, it was impossible for a man to have sex.

As a side effect of this, however, he felt himself become more and more aware of Evelyn's body as she continued to press herself against him. He had no intention of falling for her, but if he somehow ended up drunk or something...

Lust could compel one to do extreme things, after all. Finn didn't think Evelyn was necessarily evil, per se, but he also didn't want himself to become her pawn. If anything, he wanted her to become his pawn.

But as for how he would go about doing that… it was a question he himself had no answer to—yet.
