I’m Not an Evil God! Novel - Chapter 29
Chapter 29: New Home!
“Oh my god!”
The price of 75 Gold Coins was clearly beyond the young girl’s imagination. As a result, Elise covered her small mouth in surprise.
“Alright, we need to speed up the packing process. The movers are coming soon!”
Upon hearing James’s words, Elise quickened her pace.
In the past, Elise definitely would have resented James’s reckless spending.
But this was no longer the case as they now had money.
They had 75 Gold Coins!
Even though Elise was born in a very poor village and had no concept of this number…
She knew it was a lot of money.
It was a huge sum of money.
After everything was packed up, the movers arrived.
There were a lot of people and it would only take one trip to move all the items.
James felt somewhat sentimental looking at this tiny house.
He was finally leaving this… broken house!
Before he left, he also bade Mrs. Kulis a fake farewell.
Then, they arrived at their new home.
It was a small two-storey building that was not very big.
This was the result of James’s careful consideration.
Although he was now Saint Laurent’s richest man, it was better not to expose himself.
After all, when one was too rich, it was easy for others to be jealous.
In particular, when those from the poor districts knew that a rich person had appeared in their circle, they would definitely be thick-skinned and borrow money from that person.
That would be another problem.
This was the reason why he had chosen this house.
It wasn’t big, but it was enough for him and Elise to live in.
Of course, this house was not as small as it looked.
It also came with a cellar and a courtyard.
The surrounding houses were quite far away. Thus, it was very private.
Therefore, even if the sacrificial array caused some commotion, he wouldn’t be afraid of others knowing about it.
As for whether another young girl like Elise would be sent over, James was not too sure about this.
However, as long as he was given a period of time, even if the commotion from the sacrificial array attracted the attention of others…
He would no longer be afraid.
After all, he felt that his strength was about to rise to another level.
All of this had to be attributed to the sacrifices his loyal cultists had given him.
Until now, he still received two Giant Chaos Wolf eggs everyday. He did not know where the cultists got these eggs from.
There were times when he guessed that the cultists might actually be rearing many Giant Chaos Wolves. Otherwise, there was no explanation for this.
However, this didn’t matter to him. After all, it was fine as long as he obtained the benefits of this.
“From today onwards, this will be our new home!”
Once everything was in place, James lay down on the seat and announced.
Elise didn’t try to hide her happiness either. Her face was full of joy.
“However, Mr. James, our new job now is to clean up our new house!”
Upon hearing this, James’s happy expression instantly vanished.
“Ah! Why is there such a thing as hygiene in the world?!”
He shouted hysterically.
He did not understand why even though he had reached the Gold rank…
… and his physique was also extremely strong, he still felt tired from doing chores like housework and cleaning.
On the other hand, Elise, who was physically weaker than him, didn’t seem to feel tired at all when it came to household chores.
James, who could not find the reason for this, could only give up.
This kind of thing was indeed always in the genes.
Elise pulled the very reluctant James out of his chair.
Then, the two of them started cleaning up.
Even though the house did not have a large surface area, they realised that it was still quite big when they started to clean up.
After working for a few hours, the two of them finally cleaned up the house.
The entire house looked like it had just been renovated.
By the time they finished tidying up the house, it was already late at night.
The two of them were already extremely exhausted. After greeting each other, they returned to their respective rooms and fell asleep.
The next day…
The two of them began to deal with other related matters.
The first was their furniture!
The furniture back in the slums were all cheap goods that James had bought from the second-hand market to save money.
He had used them for a long time, but they had not spoiled. Thus, they were of very good quality.
However, now that they had a new home, they naturally had to change their furniture.
Apart from the furniture, there were also the troublesome “treasures”.
…
James threw the last sack into the cellar.
Then, he heaved a heavy sigh.
They had finally finished moving.
All of these were the sacrifices that those cultists had offered to him.
He could not allow the staff from the moving company to handle these.
Otherwise, there were some items with ominous power among them that might directly corrode them, ultimately turning them into the Soulless.
If a Soulless appeared in the city…
That would definitely attract the attention of the officials in Saint Laurent City.
When that time came, his identity as the Evil God would be exposed.
Even though he was not the Evil God, the officials would not possibly listen to his explanation.
After moving all the sacrifices to the cellar, he was still not done.
James also had to classify and screen these things.
This was a routine job every week.
After all, not all the offerings were useful. Some things were useless to him, so he could sell them in the Adventurer’s Guild in exchange for money.
However, such things couldn’t happen too frequently.
Otherwise, was it possible for a Level 5 Silver adventurer to be able to produce Platinum-rank extraordinary items?
This would definitely arouse suspicion.
Thus, he could only store them temporarily.
He would deal with it later.
However, it was best to find a stable supplier for his future long-term development.
This way, he could sell the “useless” offerings in his hands promptly.
However, before talking about whether he could find a stable supplier…
Even if he could find one, his Level 5 Silver strength on the surface would definitely be coveted by others.
It would be troublesome then.
Without sufficient strength, it would be inconvenient no matter where he went.
James was now considering if he should reveal his full strength.
If he were to display his Gold-rank strength, it would save him a lot of trouble.
However, this was a matter for the future. He had to settle the matters at hand first.
He took the various offerings out of the sack.
Even though these things were handled by him and he often saw them…
… when he saw the corpses of the hideous chaos monsters and their exposed internal organs…
… he could not help but feel disgusted.
In particular, when he was surrounded by all sorts of ominous items, this feeling of disgust and frustration was magnified.
He had the urge to destroy everything.
No, he could not be affected.
James shook his head, sobering himself to regain the high ground of his intellect.
Then, he started his weekly process.
