Confess System: Picking Up Girls After Girls, Try Not to Get Killed!

Chapter 255 Next Death

Tyler truly marveled at Heloise.

Initially, he had merely intended to ask for a nickname to foster closer ties, yet within a few minutes, he had inexplicably entered the phase of "proposing".

What's more remarkable was that Heloise, without realizing, had turned the tables, making it seem as though Tyler was "proposing" to her.

However, this was still within Tyler's control.

"Is that so?" Tyler nodded, then counter-questioned Heloise.

"Then would Heloise like to know my nickname?"

"Of course, I would." Heloise agreed immediately without thinking.

By the time she realized what was happening, it was already too late.

"Heloise, my nickname is Fe, remember?"

"Fe? That's such a cute nickname! Ha ha ha ha!"

Heloise laughed for a while before realizing that something was amiss. Since Felix had already told her his nickname, out of courtesy, she should also tell Felix her nickname.

Doesn't this mean…

Means…

"All right, let's get some sleep. There's a big day ahead tomorrow." Felix cunningly ended the conversation at this point, leaving Heloise anxious.

"Felix! You... you... you haven't asked me what my nickname is yet!"

"I did ask at the beginning, it was you who didn't tell me."

Upon hearing Felix's response, Heloise felt as though that was indeed the case. After being led on by Felix, she inadvertently revealed her nickname.

"I... I... I... I did tell you! My nickname is, Helolo."

.

Tyler was truly surprised that he was able to gain confession points from exchanging nicknames.

—"Confirmation of confession received from 'Heloise', energy points +1, current energy points: 1"

The cultural practices of the tigermen race truly were unique.

After revealing her nickname, Heloise shyly averted her gaze. Had Tyler not been able to read minds, he would never have understood why Heloise was being so coy.

"Helo;p? Compared to my nickname, your nickname is even cuter."

Tyler effortlessly called out Heloise's nickname, and upon hearing her nickname from the man she liked, Heloise blushed from her cheeks to her ears, as if she were about to steam.

To escape from this state of embarrassment, Heloise rolled onto the bed, wrapping herself in the blanket like a caterpillar, leaving only her head exposed.

"I-I-I-It's none of your business!" After saying this, Heloise harrumphed and turned her head away.

From then on, in Heloise's eyes, Felix was equivalent to her husband.

However, the opportunity to break the ice did not come until much later.

.

After Heloise settled down to sleep, Tyler too reclined.

He had thought through his strategy for the following day, expended his energy points, and predicted his "Future Death Scene" (Experience of Divine Eye of Transcendence: 2+1↑).

This time, the date of Tyler's death was slated for the 23rd of July, 187 years from now, at 2:11 in the afternoon. This gave him a buffer of 16 days from the present moment.

In other words, Tyler had effectively secured his victory in tomorrow's face-off against the "Unknown Death".

However, before he could rejoice, Tyler was shaken by the scene depicted in his death vision. The manner of his death this time was the most brutal since his arrival in the world of Prison Star.

The setting of the death scene appeared to be a mountain stronghold, surrounded by a vast expanse of woods.

At the center of the scene, Tyler was torn in half by an enormous goblin bedecked in grand armor and wearing a crown. The goblin was as large as Tyler with just one hand.

Moreover, behind the giant goblin were two equally robust counterparts, their eyes glowing red as they laughed heartily.

Tyler had grown accustomed to his death scenarios, so being torn in half did not shock him. What truly appalled him were the other deceased individuals in the scene.

Garvit, Heloise, Vanessa... their corpses were scattered in various corners of the scene, their manner of death... too gruesome for Tyler to behold.

(How could this happen...?)

(Is this... the Labyrinth: Aqua Nest?)

Tyler could not fathom how the raid on the Aqua Nest could result in total annihilation.

.

The content of the future death scene was indeed shocking, but this was a matter 16 days hence. Tyler soon focused his attention on the more imminent threat of tomorrow's death.

Now that the date of his death has been successfully postponed, it means that Tyler's plan to deal with the Heavenly Ghost is potentially effective.

What remains is to see how Tyler performs on the spot the next day.

"Awooo... Fe... watch this... apostle... eat... you..."

Turning in her sleep, Heloise pulled Tyler's arm closer.

This child, on their third day of sharing a bed, was already comfortable enough to sleep uninhibited. Should he comment on her lack of a sense of crisis, or is it that she trusts Tyler too much?

Tyler extricated his arm from the clasp of the two carefree "white rabbits". He did not want to wake up the next day with a sore arm.

Come afternoon of the following day, the "Invisible Assassin, Corki" was sauntering leisurely down the streets of Delis Town.

As a professional killer, he had arrived in town the previous day and had already acquired a general understanding of the town's layout, distribution of buildings, and the populace.

Now, all he needed to do was locate his "assassination target" under the guidance of falcons and sparrows, and then it would be his time to perform.

.

None of the townsfolk could detect the presence of "Invisible Assassin, Corki", for in his current state, he was merely a tasteless, odorless gas.

Corki's true form was, in fact, a cloud of black smoke, a rare variant among demons.

After a journey of growth and development, Corki had evolved into an intelligent demon with formidable wisdom.

Corki's true form was incredibly fragile, so much so that a collision with a carriage could spell his demise. However, under specific circumstances, he was virtually invincible, all thanks to his two skills.

Corki's first skill allowed him to become completely invisible, to the extent that even an ancient dragon possessing the "Dragon's Eye" would fail to detect him.

His second skill enabled him to completely conceal his murderous intent and aura from individuals of the fourth tier or below. However, for safety's sake, he only accepted assassination orders targeting those of the third tier or below.

Thanks to the application of these two skills, Corki could infiltrate a target's body unnoticed and in an instant, cut off their breathing and halt the beating of their heart, resulting in their swift demise.

His cautious approach to assassination coupled with his nearly indefensible method of assassination gradually made Corki a unique existence among assassins.

In Corki's view, there was nothing particularly special about the target that the Heavenly Ghost had hired him to assassinate.

The simpler the task, the happier Corki was — who would refuse free money?

Before long, Corki saw three sparrows circle above a young man's head twice before flying away. The young man's physical features also matched the description given by the Heavenly Ghost.

— (I'm just doing my own job, young lad, don't bear a grudge against me.)
