Assassination!

Waking up the next day, Felix still didn't have a single proper idea which he could use. 

Though all of this thinking did gift Felix many ideas to force himself on women. And perverted ideas to put into action if the situation permits.

Knowing that just sitting around wouldn't give him an idea, Felix had some breakfast and set out randomly thinking that he'd buy something to gift Isabella when he meets her.

After all, women do love presents right?

But, the next doubt Felix had was what to gift her.

Since he couldn't gift her something too costly which might make her doubt his intentions, and gifting something too cheap might lose him his only chance with her.

Thus, Felix decided to gift her a dress.

Thinking that his idea was ingenious, Felix made his way towards the grandest looking female dress store.

Walking in he was slightly surprised that there wasn't a single male inside it, but soon understood that only women were allowed entrance inside. As for him, he was only allowed since he was just a kid.

Once inside Felix started looking around and saw the various types of dresses the mannequins were dressed in, and felt quite captivated thinking how good a woman would be dressed in them.

At the same time, he saw how this store was truly only for the very very rich women.

Because even the cheapest piece of cloth he saw cost 50 gold coins. And that was nothing more than a plain looking underwear.

Since there was nothing special about the design of the panty, Felix understood that the cost must be due to the fabrics quality and the brand.

Not at all hesitating, Felix picked up one of the plain looked female underwear and began rubbing his hand against it to see how it would feel.

Ignoring the few curious glances he received from the customers and employees alike, Felix felt that it was truly many times softer than any cloth he felt till day.

Making a mental note to purchase a few of them and gift them to Eliza when she comes back, Felix started looking around to decide which dress to buy as a gift for Isabella. 

But what he didn't expect was that just as he was looking around, a woman walked inside who immediately caught his attention. 

A mature face that went perfectly with her medium length white hair, she wore sharp looking glasses which made her look both sexy and intelligent at the same time. Dressed in a tight blue coloured robe which complimented her voluptuous figure, and similar coloured eyes, she gave Felix the impression of a sexy teacher that would sleep with her students. 

However the next moment he learnt that the woman was none other than the owner of this, and almost half of all shops in Broken Moon City, Isabella. Isabella Perkins. 

Thinking how easy it just became for him to meet her, Felix decided to use the situation to his advantage. 

Since she was the owner of the shop, and he as the customer needed some assistance, she was obliged to help out right? 

Subtly grinning from the idea he just came up with, Felix was just about to call for her when he sensed something which made him instantly frown. 

... 

Going on her daily early morning rounds to all of her shops which earned the most, Sabrina saved the best one for last.

The most luxurious female dress and accessories store in all of Broken Moon City - The Broken Moon Ladies Boutique.

The boutique was so famous, that since its first day of operation, never had a single day gone by where Sabrina didn't earn money from it.

Since the time she was young, Isabella had always been interested in making money. And what she learned through her research was that almost 90% of the money was spent on two things - cultivation resources and feminine objects.

Cultivation resources included various things from techniques, source cores, and so on. But obtaining and selling them wasn't easy to do without having the necessary strength and influence.

So, Isabella made the smart decision of starting her business in Broken Moon City with a common store that sold female clothes.

Using the profits she made from it, Isabella started importing luxurious female clothes and undergarments from the Capital City of the Kingdom, which were sold out like hot cakes instantly.

This was why she set up The Broken Moon Ladies Boutique which only sold premium female items.

Sure, there were many greedy men that tried to steal her business by using her ideas, but none of them were successful. This was because all of their shops lacked feminine touch, and didn't ban men from entering them.

Like always Isabella was planning to leave after checking yesterday's accounting records and an inventory check, but before she could leave she noticed an oddity in the shop. And that was Felix.

Looking at the silver haired kid who was passionately looking around, Isabella felt curious as to why he was here and kept on observing him.

At the same time, the boy turned around and looked at her. When their eyes met each other Isabella thought that he was going to call for her, but when she saw a frown appearing on his face she instantly felt the air instantly turn cold.

Before she could even figure out what was happening, Isabella felt a cold sharp blade being pressed against her neck just waiting to split it.

An assassination!

Shocked at this, Isabella instantly knew that there was no use in resisting since the assassin was clearly many times stronger than her. But at the same time, her eyes were filled with bitterness and a will to live.

'So is this how my life ends?'

Thinking back to her whole life which made her feel completely unsatisfied, Isabella felt even more depressed.

Her whole life she tried to make money so that she could travel the whole world. Find someone to love. But due to being forced into a marriage she didn't want, Isabella was unable to do anything other than accept reality and stay back in this small city and give birth to a son that she didn't accept.

'If I manage to survive this... I swear that I'll live life the way I want to!'

But still, Sabrina couldn't help but despair. If even her cultivation at the peak of Qi Strand Realm wasn't enough to escape from the assassin, then there were only a handful of people in the whole of Broken Moon City that could save her. However none of them were here at the moment, and even if they were, there was no guarantee that they'd help her. 

Just as Isabella closed her eyes and came to accept that her death, she suddenly smelled faint scent which made her heart flutter and beat faster. 

The death on the other hand which she was waiting for, didn't occur. 

Opening her eyes which were still trembling from fear, Isabella saw a scene which she would never forget in her whole life. 

Standing in front of her was the same boy she was noticing before. His hand was stretched side and was holding down on the short dagger that was pressed against her neck. 

It looked like she the kid was holding the dagger in place, due to which she wasn't dead already. 

Though she knew that she was now safe, Isabella was still frozen in place and not even willing to gulp from fear as she was caught in between two expert cultivators who could easily kill her. 

Just as Isabella was thinking if she would end up surviving if the two of them fought while she was still stuck in between them. The boy asked her a question. 

"If I manage to save you, will you do anything I ask of you?"

Putting aside the weird situation they were in, Isabella accepted it immediately while indicating it with her eyes.

"Move aside boy... If you don't want to d... "

Before the raspy voice could even finish speaking a scream erupted beside Isabella's ear followed by Felix disappearing from in front of her.

Noticing that the dagger was no longer placed on her neck, Isabella turned around to look at what was happening. But she didn't expect the fight to be over so soon

As behind her Felix was standing calmly with a black clothed man's lifeless body pressed under his leg.

"Now about what I said before. You won't go back on your word right?"

Hearing the boy speaking, Isabella didn't even have enough time to feel happy from escaping death as she felt that maybe she still wasn't safe.

Putting aside how she had promised to do anything he wanted, given how strong the kid was, she was completely in hands to do as he pleases to.

Understanding this, Isabella felt like this day was truly the worst.

At the same time Felix received a system notification that said he couldn't ask her to have sex with him, as this was the same as forcing her, secretly snort from dissatisfaction, Felix was left with no choice but to go back to his previous plan.

"How about helping me choose a dress from your shop?"

Unable to believe that it was something so simple, Isabella immediately agreed while sighing from relief.

Ordering the workers to dispose of the body, she accompanied Felix as they walked towards the deeper end of the shop where the costliest clothes and the dressing room was at.
