The Rise of Rose Elf

At night, Lopez City.

In the isolated and dilapidated alley, few people came during the day. It was more silent and desolate at night.

The cold moonlight fell on the moss-covered stone road. The stray cat sniffed with lowering its head and went deep into the alley.

After a few seconds, the cat saw something. Its pupils dilated suddenly, and its back arched in shock.

In front of it was the corpse of a young girl who died not long ago.

She had a malnourished figure and messy long hair. Her T-shirt was dirty, and there was a strangled mark on her neck.

However, an astonishing scene happened in the next second. The corpse moved her fingers and opened her eyes.

"A new... body."

The girl slowly sat up from the ground. She said slightly whose voice was as cold as a bell.

Her long black hair blew in the wind under the moonlight, which exuded a trace of evilness.

One of her eyes was shining like a colored glaze, but the other was dull, which was obviously blind.

She was a rose Rambler born in hell who was reborn in a woman's body after she came to the mortal world. But ten years later, the monster hunters found her traces. She had no choice but to abandon that woman's body.

She wandered the world for a long time before she found this body that had just died and was compatible with her soul. Although she was blind, it was a good body for her.

The name of this body was Miria Jones which would be the rose demon's new name from now on.

Miria wanted to stand up, but the original owner was too weak and stumbled all the way. With her current soul value, it would take at least a week to repair this damaged body.

It was too long.

When Miria was in despair, the tip of her nose moved suddenly as if she smelled something in the air. She looked up with bright eyes.

There was a person with strong evil energy nearby.

Some people were born with evil energy.

People who were born with strong evil energy would either suppress it by their own aura and became powerful, or they would die prematurely due to the backfire of the evil energy.

Ordinary people whose aura were not strong enough couldn't get close to those with strong evil energy, otherwise they would bring bad luck.

But for Miria, evil energy was the fastest way to replenish her soul value at this moment.

She was lucky today.

Miria trudged out of the alley and saw a black high-end Maybach parked on the side of the road not far away.

She could not see what was inside the car by the privacy film, but she knew that the person she was looking for was sitting in the back seat of the car.

...

Alfred Bryant was sitting in the car, waiting for his assistant who went to fetch the emerald for him.

The Smith family was going to hold a charity auction tomorrow night and had invited celebrities from all walks of life in Lopez City. Although they called it as an auction, they urged the guests to donate their private collections.

The Smith family didn't spend a penny but gained a good reputation and wealth which was quite a good deal.

Alfred usually wouldn't participate in this kind of occasion, and he was not welcomed by others.

But the Bryant family and the Smith family were related by marriage. He had to show up and donated the emerald for the sake of old Mr. Smith.

When Alfred looked down at his phone, there was a sudden knock on the window.

When he looked up and saw a young girl standing outside the car, he was a little stunned.

Miria looked very thin and was about 5.4 feet tall. Her face was only the size of a palm.

Her messy long hair was scattered on her shoulders, and her face and clothes were dirty. Alfred couldn't even see what she looked like.

He also noticed Miria's left eye was shining brightly while the right one had no light which should be blind.

Was she a tramp?

Alfred's legs had been disabled for ten years due to a car accident, and Miria was blind in one eye. They both had a misfortune which made Alfred sympathize with her.

Alfred paused and took out his wallet from his suit pocket. He took out a hundred dollars, opened half of the car window and handed it out.

However, Miria did not take it. Just as Alfred frowned and looked over, his hand was suddenly grabbed by her.

Alfred's pupils shrank, and he suddenly said, "Get off from me!"

It was not because he thought she was dirty. He was born with strong evil energy. If one with poor health touched him, his heart would palpitate and he might even die due to a heart attack.

"No."

Alfred was startled and didn't expect Miria's answer. She was surprisingly strong, and he couldn't get rid of her.

"I don't want money."

Miria grabbed his hand and spoke.

It was only then that Alfred noticed her facial features were very beautiful although her face was covered with a lot of dirt. Especially her left eye was as bright as a colored glaze.

"Then what do you want?" Alfred paused, and his voice was deep.

"I want..." Miria suddenly leaned over and uttered a word. "You."

What?

Alfred froze. Before he reacted, he suddenly realized he could not move.

Then Miria kissed him in the next second.

The moment their lips touched, Alfred's eyes widened. He could only see her slightly trembling eyelashes and hear her breathing.

Miria didn't stop until five minutes later.

"Didn't anyone tell you to close your eyes when you kiss?"

"Oh. It's not a real kiss."

Miria talked to herself. She straightened up and said seriously, "Anyway, I will be responsible for you."

While speaking, Miria lowered her head and rummaged through the pocket of her worn-out jeans.

She finally found a dollar and stuffed it into Alfred's hand.

"This is a deposit. I'll repay you the rest when we meet next time."

"By the way, my name is Miria Jones."

It wasn't until Miria completely disappeared in Alfred's sight that the force restrained Alfred disappeared.

When Alfred's assistant Louis Stewart brought the emerald back, he saw Alfred panting in the back seat and his chest heaved violently.

"What's the matter, Mr. Bryant? Are you okay?" Louis hurried over and asked.

"I'm fine." Alfred took a deep breath. His deep eyes were filled with unknown emotions. "Louis, help me find a person. Do whatever you can to find her."

...

Alfred's evil energy was strong and pure.

After inhaling for five minutes, she felt her body become light. Her soul value was replenishing her body. Even her breathing was full of vitality.

Miria used her soul value to repair the original owner's blind eye. Although it couldn't be recovered completely, she could at least see. People wouldn't find out her eye had a problem if they didn't look carefully.

As long as she harvested enough affection and love from humans to strengthen her soul value, her eye would be fully recovered.

Miria found a place to sit down and recalled the remaining memories of the original owner in her mind. After she finished, the phone in her pocket rang.

Someone was calling.

Miria took out her phone and looked at it. The caller's name was displayed on the old Nokia. It was Leopold Jones.

It was the Jones family...

Miria touched her chin and thought in her mind.

Was it her strange stepmother who sent someone to strangle her an hour ago? Or was it her younger sister who was dating her fiancé?
