Liar Lance, Who Would've Thought Venus Was a Trainee Death God?!

Long time no see, Venus.

Venus on the projection screen looked dazed, the words echoing in her mind, and Lance's figure was reflected in her crimson eyes.

After a long while, she finally reacted. She covered her eyes with her hands. It was Lance from a thousand years ago.

She recognized that smile that greeted her.

More than a thousand years ago, Lance, who was lying in a rocking chair basking in the afternoon sun, would see her squatting in a dark corner and would smile and wave to her, inviting her to come and bask in the sun. She loved Lance's smile.

Clean and pure. It put her at ease. A thousand years later, she saw that smile again.

The memories of her past are attacking her again.

The mysterious and powerful teammate Amelia spoke of was actually Lance from a thousand years in the future—something she hadn't expected.

Amelia saw Venus covering her eyes with her hands, and a look of smug satisfaction appeared in her azure eyes.

Did you lose control of your emotions?

She lost control of her emotions several times yesterday.

"Venus, you..."

"Long time no see, Lance."

Amelia placed the Projection Communicator on the dining table. It had been over a thousand years since they last met; they were sure to have something to talk about.

In order to respond to the conman Lance immediately, he deliberately interrupted her.

I understand.

After all, the conman Lance used to wash Venus's long, silvery-white hair frequently. In order to make her long, silvery-white hair even more beautiful, he even specially formulated a special hair care shampoo for Venus using herbs.

Once, Leige, the Silver Sword Hero, stole some of the protective shampoo that Lance had prepared for Venus, and Venus chased after him and hit him with her staff for quite a while.

Upon reflection, they realized that without their notice, the conman Lance had done a lot for them using his potions.

Shampoo and conditioner, medicine to regulate the spleen and stomach, and a supernatural medicine to cure Iliya's figure. In the words of the current adventure team members in the human world, Lance was the "nanny" of their "Radiant Sun" team back then.

"It's been a long time indeed. Seeing you now, I almost don't recognize you. You've cut your hair short, and your whole demeanor has changed. Hmm, very handsome. With your current style, you could easily steal away my pet dragon."

The young dragon, who was eating two pieces of bread in one bite, quickly shut his mouth when the evil dragon mentioned her; he still had to maintain the image of Imperial Daughter.

When will she be able to turn back into a human? She eats meat and drinks water every day. She's almost forgotten what it's like to enjoy food with small, delicate lips. The young dragon raised its claw and gave Venus a thumbs up.

The dragon is right.

Venus, dressed in a black suit, is indeed handsome and charming.

If I were to become a teacher at a prestigious academy in the capital, those aristocratic young men and women who have never seen much of the world would probably become little fans of Venus in no time.

"This silly little dragon is quite lucky."

Lance nodded in agreement. The dragon cub was indeed lucky. If it hadn't happened to run into him, the dragon cub might already be being raised by a human princess.

It's also possible that they'll live a very happy life, enjoying the carefree existence of a national treasure.

After all, most princesses in the human world have little resistance to these silly and adorable dragon cubs.

Didn't you feel any pain when you cut off your dazzling long silver-white hair?

"I cut my hair short so that I could get out of the shadow of your death as soon as possible. Otherwise, I would subconsciously think of the scene of you washing my hair when you were alive."

The first thing she wanted to say when she got up from the dark corner was, "Lance, my hair is dirty."

The teammates made changes in order to get over Lance's death as quickly as possible. But when they missed Lance, they still missed Lance. The young dragon subconsciously touched its bald dragon head.

Damn it, how could a dragon be so gentle with a human girl?

Treating her like this—either hitting her or beating her—is like washing her hair?

Wipe her bald dragon head with a damp towel, and that's considered washing her hair. "Great, a new hairstyle, a new mood."

Where are you? I'm coming to find you.

"???" Amelia appeared in front of the projection screen. "Wait, when you saw that liar Lance, why didn't you ask him how he's still alive?"

"Ask when you meet."

"Then what are you looking for him for? Have you completed your mission? Weren't you planning to ask someone to help you with your mission last night? Have you found someone to help you with your mission? If you haven't found someone, tell me your location, and I'll bring the conman Lance to assist you."

I'll help you with that rather tricky task.

Venus's gaze fell on Lance. If it was Lance, she wouldn't mind letting Lance know her identity as the "Trainee Death God".

The identity of the Trainee Death God must not be known to others, but teammates can.

If Lance knew she had made a contract with Hell to become an "Trainee Death God," he would probably be shocked by her identity, right? I'm kind of looking forward to Lance's reaction when he finds out she's an "Trainee Death God."

Should Amelia bring Lance along to help her clear out the undead in the Twilight Great Canyon?

She wanted to see Lance alive, but the necromancers in the Dim Yellow Grand Canyon could summon unknown and powerful beings.

Lance is Potion Master, and she wasn't sure if Lance could concoct a supernatural potion effective against the undead.

If possible, Amelia could bring Lance to help her exterminate the undead.

"Don't make things difficult for Lance. Lance is Potion Master. Bringing him here might not be helpful to me. We might even have to protect Lance in the end."

"Protect Lance? You underestimate him. Do you know why I call him Liar Lance?"

"You thought he was dead, but he's not. You feel he deceived you, so you call him a liar?"

"That's one point." Amelia's figure disappeared from the projection screen, allowing Lance to reappear in it. "Look closely, Venus, look closely. Do you think this guy is still the same guy from a thousand years ago?"

"It's normal for things to change a bit over a thousand years."

A thousand years is a long time; anyone would change to some extent in that time. She noticed the changes in Lance; compared to a thousand years ago, Lance now had a better temperament, his eyes, his every move, were more natural and unrestrained.

This is not surprising; it would be strange if nothing changed in a thousand years.

Amelia was speechless. The projection screen wouldn't work. Only if Venus saw Lance in person could she truly appreciate how much Lance changed.

That's not just a slight change, it's like a completely different person! Okay, okay.

You think Lance is powerless to protect himself? Very well, it's time to give Venus a little Lance shock.

"Venus, you underestimate Lance the fraudster from a thousand years in the future. Your impression of him is still stuck a thousand years ago, saying that he has no ability to protect himself. A thousand years ago, his ability to protect himself was superior to ours."

You've probably heard of Beast Tamer, right?

Venus in the projection screen nodded. The Beast Tamer had naturally heard of her and had even met her. Powerful Beast Tamer were difficult to deal with, and some evil Beast Tamer could even control small-scale Beast Tide Beast Tide profit from them.

For example, they could use Beast Tide to blackmail the city lord, forcing him to pay a huge bounty.

"He's Lance the fraudster. Besides being a Potion Master, he's also a Beast Tamer! And, according to what I've gathered, his Pet Beast seem to be quite powerful. Potion Master and Beast Tamer combined. Can this help you?"

Beast Tamer? Is Lance still a Beast Tamer? Normally, it's difficult for Potion Master to become Beast Tamer, but excellent Potion Master can become friends with Beast Tamer.

If your Pet Beast has any problems, the Potion Master can help the Beast Tamer.

Wait, Amelia called Lance a liar and said that Lance had the ability to protect himself a thousand years ago. Could it be that a thousand years ago, Lance was not only Potion Master but also a Beast Tamer?

If that's the case, then Lance is indeed a liar, and a very well-hidden one at that.

He never revealed a trace of his beast-taming talent in front of them, and they had never even seen his Pet Beast.

"Lance, are you Beast Tamer?"

"No."

"Ha, the evidence is conclusive, and you still want to lie to us? Throughout the entire Holy Blue, all your subjects know that you can control beasts."

"You were able to tame beasts a thousand years ago?"

"It can ward off turtles."

"???"

Is the Pet Beast a turtle? What kind of attack power can a turtle have?

Turtles are primarily defensive creatures.

Having a tortoise as his Pet Beast is in line with Lance's personality.

"Lance the fraudster."

Venus began to call Lance same way Amelia did.

If your Pet Beast is a turtle, it's really embarrassing to show it to your teammates, as they might laugh at you.

It's not as good as the identity of Potion Master.

"Lance, are you free lately? If you are, let's form a temporary team. You and Amelia can help me with a mission. This mission is a little difficult for me, so I need to find someone to help me."

Last night Amelia said she could bring a mysterious and powerful expert to help me, but I refused because I didn't know it was you.

Now that I understand, if you have some free time, come help me out. I'll give you something nice after you complete this task. Even if you don't complete it, it's okay; I'll still give you some interesting and good things.

Psychic Gold Coin.

This should be able to attract Lance.

Psychic Gold Coin are inaccessible to ordinary people, and even nobles who desire them sometimes cannot obtain them.

The Psychic Gold Coin have significant collectible value, but selling them is not very meaningful or worth much.

Only when you can use the Psychic Gold Coin Psychic Gold Coin they become priceless.

It doesn't require the use of Psychic Gold Coin; it's simply a coin imbued with mystery.

When you give the Psychic Gold Coin to Lance, she will suggest that Lance keep them.

She previously sent a request for assistance to the nearby Trainee Death God, and so far only one Trainee Death God has responded.

The response was: [Read, busy taking care of the baby, no time right now.]

The other Trainee Death God haven't replied yet.

I can't wait any longer.

If Lance is free, then Amelia can take Lance to help her complete a task.

Experience what it felt like to team up back in the day.

Amelia smiled at Lance Lance, the undead who even Venus, Trainee Death God, found troublesome, she didn't believe that Lance's identity Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor could be kept secret any longer.

She hasn't revealed the identity of the fraudster Lance Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor to Venus yet, because she wants Venus to witness the splendor of the [Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor] firsthand.

"Lance the Lance, I've sent you a party invitation, are you free?"

Lance, with his wicked sense of humor, knew what Amelia was planning, but only revealed his identity as Beast Tamer to Venus, omitting his identity as the Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor.

It seems that Venus's quest is quite difficult.

Amelia felt confident because she believed that his presence would expose his identity as the Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor.

"When you have time, send the coordinates to Amelia, and we'll come over to help you complete the task you're currently working on."

If you're still alive, then go and see the child Venus.

This kid's dark attributes are ridiculously high; he's good material to Trainee Death God.

Try to contact her privately and see if you can sign a "Trainee Death God" contract with her.

As a Intern Death God, he hasn't recruited a single Trainee Death God yet, so he can't waste the three slots and will give one to Venus.

After this child dies of old age, let Death God Solomon, see if he can make her Level One Death God.

Level One Death God, a legitimate priest of Hell. Equivalent to an angel.

For this purpose alone, it is worthwhile to see Venus.

"Okay, I'll send the coordinates to Amelia now. I'll reimburse your travel expenses."

"Can."

The projection call has ended.

Not long after, Amelia received the coordinates from Venus: Twilight Ancient City Pendragon Province, Kassel Kingdom.

The address was followed by a sentence: "Message me when you arrive in the Twilight Ancient City, and I'll come find you."

Have you ever heard of the Kassel Kingdom?

"No."

Twilight Ancient City?

The city's name was interesting; it reminded him of the Twilight Great Canyon.

"If you're not busy, shall we leave today?"

"???"

December 5th, 3455 of the Black Dragon Calendar, sunny.

The dragon left Saint Blue and headed to the Pendragon Province of the Kassel Kingdom.

They first traveled to the capital of the Red Maple Kingdom aboard Ticia's dragon, and then switched to an airship to travel to another kingdom.

Upon arriving at the capital of another kingdom, the dragon took her on a day of sightseeing in this unfamiliar city.

The next day, they traveled by airship to other kingdoms.

On the way to the Kingdom of Castle, she traveled with the dragon on an airship, a transnational energy train, an energy car, a horse-drawn carriage, and a teleportation array. She saw snow-covered winter cities and coastal cities with spring-like weather all year round. Unfortunately, they did not have time to appreciate these places properly and only stayed for a short day.

However, the dragon told her that he would record the route and that he would bring her to visit a certain city if she wanted to in the future.

Even when traveling, you have to do homework.

distressed.

It would be perfect if the dragon didn't supervise her homework.

December 25th, 3455 of the Black Dragon Calendar, sunny.

After a twenty-day journey, they arrived at the Kassel Kingdom Royal Capital. In the afternoon, they took the Energy Train and arrived at Pendragon City, the central city of the Pendragon Province, near dusk.

They arrived at the Twilight Ancient City around 10 p. m. that night.

The elf Amelia sent a message to Venus, telling Venus their location. Not long after, she met the dragon's former teammates.

He was wearing the same clothes as that day, a pure black suit, and his crimson eyes gleamed with an eerie light in the darkness.

Unlike Saint Blue City.

Even at around 10 p. m., there were still citizens strolling around the streets of Saint Blue City.

At this time of day, there are hardly any people left in the Twilight Ancient City, and the streetlights emit a dim yellow glow.

The light, which should have been soft, somehow looked a little eerie.

"It's Lance alive."

"You've grown taller."

Lance walked up to Venus, smiled, and ruffled Venus hair. Her short, silvery-white hair was much smoother and silkier than it had been a thousand years ago.

Venus's body stiffened slightly.

Things have definitely changed.

You can't see much in the projection screen; only by seeing the real person can you more intuitively feel the changes in Lance.

A smile, demeanor, and manner of doing things. A thousand-year-old Lance could not produce such a natural movement.

Where are we sleeping tonight?

"Sleep tomorrow. Help me with the mission tonight. You even brought Xiaolong with you? Let Xiaolong sleep at my place. This mission is a bit dangerous, don't let Xiaolong take any risks."

"Don't underestimate my little dragon, she can breathe Dragon Breath. She can handle the weaker monsters... wait, are you planning to put me on the night shift?"

"Yeah, I work the night shift."

"."

He hasn't worked a night shift in a very long time. Oh well, if it's Venus, this little guy, he can just take a temporary night shift.

"Let's go, I'll finish your task as soon as possible so we can come back to sleep early and try to be back before midnight."

"I'll do my best."

Venus took out a teleportation scroll from her Space Ring and tore it apart. After a brief period of dizziness, they appeared in the Twilight Great Canyon.

The outside world was already dark, but here... it was all dim and yellowish. Hmm? Why does this place look so familiar?

Twilight Great Canyon? "Amelia, Lance, my mission is to clear out the undead in this area. I don't need to kill them all; just help me send them all to hell."

hell?

Lance turned to look at Venus behind him.

???

Venus, dressed in a pure black suit, disappeared, and what appeared before Lance was a Death God Robe, holding Death God Scythe, his true face hidden under a hat.

Lance was stunned.

Seeing Lance's reaction, Amelia burst out laughing, "Hahahaha, you liar Lance, didn't expect that, did you? You think your identity Beast Tamer is so powerful? Death, have you heard of it? If not, that doesn't matter, the one standing in front of you now is a real Death!"

Your former teammate Venus is a "Trainee Death God" who has made Death God Contract with Hell! You liar Lance, when you die of old age, you can give Venus a heads-up and ask Venus to pull some strings so you can be reincarnated as a noble... no... royalty!

"Hey, hey, hey. Why are you looking at me like I'm a clown?"

Silly elf.

He was stunned, not because he was intimidated by Venus's identity Trainee Death God.

He was wondering which damned Grim Reaper had beaten him to it and signed his teammate with the contract he wanted. His second thought was, "Oh no, I think I once slashed Venus, this Trainee Death God."
