Chapter 31: Buy The Technique
Rejecting the offer was one thing, but Ivy continued to insist he use her money.
This meant that her offer wasn’t just to show sincerity—she truly wouldn’t be satisfied unless he used what she had.
Oliver couldn’t help but wonder just how deep her feelings for him were, because this seemed to border on the irrational.
He couldn’t keep refusing, even though he was hesitant to use a woman’s money.
But the truth was—he did need the money.
"By the way, how’s your fusion going with the Undead King?" Ivy asked.
"Even though the Undead King is strong, I might be stronger myself," Oliver replied. "I don’t really need him. Based on my estimate, I’m more suited to the Undead Emperor. That’s why I plan to help you level up, but not necessarily fuse with the King. I can help weaken the monsters so you can kill them more easily."
"That’s good too. Once I get the Undead Emperor, I’ll give it to you," Ivy replied without hesitation.
"What if I want to fully fuse with your Undead Emperor—would you mind?" Oliver asked. "Actually, there’s a technique that allows me to completely merge with another creature. It’s very difficult to master, but I plan on learning it. Full fusion would let me combine my power with the creature’s. If that’s your Undead Emperor, I’ll need your permission—and you’d lose control of it."
Oliver felt it was necessary to explain this to her clearly, since in the end, it required her consent. If she didn’t approve, then it would be impossible.
After all, it might be a loss for her, as she’d basically lose her Undead Emperor.
Even though she could try to find another one in the future, that wouldn’t be easy.
