The Secret Garden of the Dandelion Troupe

Pine and Casey, the impression they give on the outside is the same. The siblings’ spare time is mainly spent on street life.

They are not forced by a bloody life. They come from ordinary families at the bottom of society and do not want to live an ordinary life at the bottom. They have nothing to ask for, but they believe they can have everything.

They are not too kind when they meet people who can be bullied. At most, they can be regarded as having some brotherly love, right?

After a brief understanding of Pine’s background, Mu Hua is not very interested in this guy’s affairs.

But in Pine’s self-talk, Mu Hua also figured out the general situation of the siblings.

The root of the matter should still be the parents of the siblings. Their parents are devout church believers and dance happily in the advocacy group against the blood clan.

The blood clan controls this city, and the gangs here seem to want to give their parents some warnings by teaching them a lesson.

Everything is normal up to here. The only abnormal thing is that the gangs here may be managed by a ghoul, and his teachings may be a bit harsh.

Guessing that Pine and Casey might end up being sliced ​​and dipped in sauce, the thugs who caught them wanted to beat Casey up a few times while she was still warm.

It was a rather melodramatic plot, so melodramatic that Mu Hua felt deeply powerless.

"I will help you realize any wish and provide you with everything you need, but you still need to solve your own problems. If you want to kill them... Alas..." Mu Hua sighed.

Damn, wandering around the city and beeing, Mu Hua felt that there were potential customers nearby, so he stopped by to take a look.

As a result, he saved the customer, but now a group of thugs are under his control. If he gets Pine a fruit knife, he can kill all these thugs. How can he bid for this? One hundred credit points, thank you for your patronage?

"I can count this as saving you..." After sighing, Mu Hua muttered to himself.

He didn't know what to say. He couldn't just let the thugs go now and let them continue to beat Pine and ride Casey, and then he would negotiate with Pine to save them, right?

Damn, at least I am a person who can compete with your "God of Creation". How dare these bastards call him for such a trivial matter?

"Fulfill the wish? Can you help me get rid of the Lucius family?" Pine didn't know what kind of existence the demon merchant was, but he saw that Mu Hua should be very powerful.

"So, I hate this kind of lack of common sense the most. I am a demon merchant, not a killer, not... um? Lucius family?" Mu Hua said impatiently, but suddenly found that this kid was adding more money?

The demon merchant's transactions have specific rules. Losing transactions will deduct their own energy. If they make too much money, they will be judged as "score brushing" and their own energy will also be deducted.

The relatively reasonable transaction price makes the demon merchants have a good reputation in trading, but most demons don't like this kind of rationality, which may be the origin of the name "trading compensation".

Is it a compensation reward for the demons who trade fairly?

It is precisely because of this that if it is a small matter, Mu Hua can't make anything from Pine, but Pine doesn't seem to want to retaliate against the gangsters in front of him, so Mu Hua is a little interested.

"The Lucas family, the king who controls the underground world of this city, will not let us go. My wish is that I will not be threatened by them again. I and my family will not be threatened by them again."

"Didn't you say you could help me realize my wish?" Pine looked straight into Mu Hua's eyes, as if trying to figure out Mu Hua's thoughts.

"Oh, gangsters, right?" Mu Hua nodded. Gangsters are fine, after all, it can be regarded as increasing the transaction amount.

Moreover, the devil's transaction price will also be affected by the will of the transaction object. The more serious the transaction affects the life of the transaction object, the stronger the transaction object's own needs are. It may be a small matter for the devil, but it can also demand more transaction compensation from the transaction object.

"They are not only gangsters, the government, and even the church are in cahoots with them. If you want to help me..." Pine took over, but was interrupted by Mu Hua.

"Wait, hey, what do you mean I want to help you?" Mu Hua pouted.

"Let's first figure it out. It was you who called the devil merchant, and I responded to your call. I can help you realize your wish, but the premise is that you need to pay a reward, help, merchant, OK?" If it weren't for himself, Mu Hua would like this guy's shameless look.

We are devil merchants, not superheroes.

"..." Pine was silent, his eyes wandering.

Mu Hua repeatedly emphasized that he was a devil merchant, and although this courtyard was closed before, it also had the concept of devil.

Moreover, the concept of demons here may be more evil than that of the outside world. After Mu Hua's explanation, Pine has some understanding of the demon merchant.

"Since... since you can respond to my call, I should have what you want here. What do you want?" Pine asked tentatively.

"Hehe, your brain turns quite fast."

"Money, treasures, rare resources, if you have some strange things, I can also help you look." When Mu Hua said, the brother and sister looked thoughtful, but then shook their heads awkwardly.

"If it doesn't work... your soul?" Mu Hua frowned.

Obviously this kid is penniless and doesn't have the hobby of "picking up garbage". Since he has nothing, his value to the demon merchant should only be his soul.

Mu Hua had never received a client who sold his soul. After thinking about it, he suggested to treat it as a try.

"Soul? Ha... If you can help me get rid of the Lucas family, you can take the soul. Selling the soul to the devil is cool~!" Pine said with a carefree smile.

"..Are you sure?" He wanted to tell him that selling the soul was not that simple, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. Mu Hua also wanted to see what it was like to trade souls with the devil.

"Sure. But the premise is that you can really help me." Pine was quite street-wise. After confirming that he had what Mu Hua needed, his attitude became tougher.

"Of course, in exchange for your soul, I will help you get rid of the threat of the Lucas family to you, um, and your family." Mu Hua chuckled, and a strange mouth opened in the void appeared behind Mu Hua.

Under the horrified gaze of the brother and sister, the originally restrained gangsters were swallowed one by one by the strange mouth, and as the strange mouth dissipated, the gangsters also completely disappeared from this world.

"Boom!" A fireball shot out from Mu Hua's hand, and the rising fireball exploded with strong energy fluctuations in the sky.

The brother and sister didn't know what Mu Hua was going to do, but they were surprised that Mu Hua raised his hand and released the flames that ignited the sky.

The remaining flames in the sky had not yet dissipated, and people shuttled in the dilapidated alleys. In the blink of an eye, dozens of figures appeared around Mu Hua.

"What... uh, Your Majesty?" Dozens of figures, wearing windbreakers, with rapiers on their waists, and red pupils, made themselves look like men in black. One of the figures was about to scold, but when he saw Mu Hua's face clearly, he was stunned on the spot.

"Greetings, Your Majesty. I wonder what Your Majesty is doing..." Among the visitors, there are vampires and secondary vampires, all of whom are members of the blood clan. The leader takes the lead, and the others stand aside cautiously while being respectful, taking precautions.

It seems that the blood clan should have made a wide public announcement of Mu Hua's information within the clan.

"There are still corpse ghosts in this courtyard?" Mu Hua frowned. Vampires only suck blood, and only corpse ghosts can eat human flesh.

"This... Your Majesty, there are indeed some corpse ghosts that have not been cleaned up in time." The words were awkward, and a vampire with a higher status among the visitors joined in.

"Relax, I'm not here to cause trouble. Is there a Lucas family here?" Mu Hua waved his hand, and the other party's expression relaxed.

"Well, some garbage who do dirty work, did they offend you?" When the visitor said this, his eyes looked coldly at Pine and Casey.

"He is my client. If someone is causing trouble for him, please help him deal with it, including his family. At least in this city, don't let anyone cause trouble for them in the future." Mu Hua said, and the coldness in the other party's eyes immediately dissipated.

"Yes, we will wipe them out right now. However, Your Majesty, this... client?" The leading vampire nodded, and several vampires withdrew in a flash, probably to deal with the Lucas family.

At this moment, Pine's eyes were full of doubt. He knew the person who was communicating with Mu Hua. Pine had seen the director of the police station being respectful to him in public. Pine didn't expect that such a big shot would be so humble in front of Mu Hua.

"Well, client, I'm working part-time as a demon merchant recently. You can help me promote it when you go back. You can find me if you need it." Mu Hua said to the vampire.

"..." The vampires were stunned.

"Demon merchant?" The leading vampire confirmed the question.

"Yes, demon merchant, don't worry, I'm a foreign demon, I'm not fooling people." Mu Hua recommended himself, and the vampires looked strange.

After a short moment, a vampire who had left returned, and he was holding a head with a confused expression in his hand.

"Lucas?" Mu Hua looked at Pine, but saw Pine nodded with a serious look in his eyes.

"Then our deal is done?" Mu Hua chuckled to confirm.

"Well, I will follow you in the future, what do you need me to do?" Pine glanced at the vampire standing respectfully on the side, and said to Mu Hua solemnly.

"Well? Who asked you to follow me? I want your soul, what's the use of you?" Mu Hua frowned, this guy took it for granted, right?

Pine was stunned, and then his eyes were filled with fear.

Mu Hua nodded, that's right, otherwise you have sold your soul, and you are still so stable, wouldn't I be very embarrassed?

Pine stared at Mu Hua's expression in horror. Seeing the evil smile on Mu Hua's face (from Pine's perspective), Pine's heart couldn't help but feel cold.

But when he turned to see the vampires around him, Pine's eyes were erratic, and finally he cast his eyes on Mu Hua again, and his evasive eyes gradually became serious.

"Soul..." Pine asked in a voice that was almost mumbling.

"Yes, soul, haha, believe me, it is very unwise to owe the devil merchant." Mu Hua chuckled and shook his head. No matter how Pine lived in the future, he could take away the other's soul at any time.

However, the devil merchant generally let those who sold their souls grow more.

If this kind of person does not develop well, he can be a slave of the devil merchant. If he develops well, he can also be regarded as a relatively stable and safe customer for the devil merchant.

His future life will be closely connected with the devil merchant.

"Don't hurt my family. As for the soul, if you want it, I'll give it to you." Mu Hua was thinking about whether he could provide some convenience to Pine's life. Pine suddenly said something that Mu Hua didn't understand in a tone as if he had made up his mind.

"Puff!" Before Mu Hua could finish his question, he saw Pine holding a piece of glass he had picked up from the ground and directly slashing his neck.

“… Shit.” Blood plasma spurted out, Mu Hua was stunned, and then he yelled, what the hell? What’s wrong with this guy?

Could it be… Could it be that this guy misunderstood something? Shit, uneducated, so scary.

“…” The vampires didn’t understand the situation either, but when they saw Pine fall to the ground with a nostalgia for life in his eyes, the vampires looked at Mu Hua with a strange look.

It’s like… It’s like… It’s like looking at an unscrupulous and black-hearted businessman with no professional ethics. (End of this chapter)
