Picking Up Beautiful Girls In The Post-Apocalyptic World!

So Gretha knew that if she tried to escape from Han, she would run into monsters that were far stronger than her.

That is why Gretha decided to stay in the inn whenever Han leaves. She still believed that Han was in love with her so she was sure that he would protect her from any kind of danger out there! Gretha first thought about using Han as a pawn to do whatever she wanted, she always heard that men in love were easy to manipulate. And if she can manipulate someone as strong as Han she can conquer the entire world! But recently she has been having second thoughts.

Whenever Han leaves his body and goes to train his [Spectral Seperation], Gretha would take a closer look at his body and she couldn’t deny that he was a very handsome man. He had a smooth face, but it didn’t look feminine at all. It was perfectly handsome. This is the sort of man she knows she can fall in love with! It would be amazing if she can just settle down with him somewhere! I’m sure I can convince him to forget about this whole celestial nonsense we can just live together! Hehe! It will be nice to have someone like him to spend the rest of my life with! And he is even a gentleman! He hasn’t touched me once since we came here. I’m sure he has a lot of pent-up frustration from sleeping in the same room as my beautiful body, but he is trying to respect my modesty! What a gentleman!

Han was completely ignorant of the stupid thoughts going through Gretha’s head and that was the only reason why he hasn’t beat the shit out of her! If Han knew that she was thinking such nonsense, he definitely wouldn’t let her go! The only reason why Han hasn’t already gotten rid of her is because he needed her for when he begins his plan, and the only reason he hasn’t touched her is that he just doesn’t like her at all! Right now the only thought going through Han’s mind is about meeting Dorea and he was still wondering if he would be able to talk to his wives once he begins this plan. Thinking about another woman is so far away from his thoughts! And besides, Han doesn’t even see Gretha as a woman. Seeing her transform her head into a giant lizard before she transformed her body into an octopus has destroyed any sort of attraction Han could have had for her! And her character afterward just made it worse! She was thinking about sleeping with my body when I wasn’t inside it! I know I’m a pervert as well, but she’s far worse! I’ll never think about sleeping with a dead woman! But she wanted to fuck my dead body! She’s worse than a pervert! She’s basically a molester!

So Han just ignored Gretha every day and tried his best to level up his skill as quickly as possible! There were a lot of people in this town and Han was able to easily find some people that he could possess without causing too much trouble. Han didn’t really mind who he possessed. Since Han got some of their memories and even their character traits, Han was able to perfectly replicate everything that they would do if they were in difficult situations. Han’s preferred places to go to were restaurants and the guild house! If Han possessed a chef in a restaurant, it would be easy for him to cook whatever meal they were trying to make. Han had better cooking skills than anyone else in the world and there is no way he would lose to anyone in cooking! The restaurants were even becoming more popular because of Han! Whenever Han goes to the guild, he possesses the body of one of the guild members and he just sits at one side and avoids everyone as he waited for the time limit to pass. It was the best strategy!

Sometimes, Han would go and possess people that looked secluded or shy. Whenever he does that, he would just find a quiet restaurant or a bar and sit there as he waited for his skill to improve. There wasn’t any other way for him to improve this skill any faster, so Han j had to grind it like this.

Those people that Han would possess were always surprised when they woke up and find themselves in a new place all of a sudden, but they couldn’t see Han so they had no way of knowing he was there!

Today, Han was possessing an old man that looked like he was just a few moments away from the grave. He had a very long beard and he was hunched over with a walking stick! His eyes were gray and he was partially blind! Han was inside a restaurant and he was eating a meal at the back while listening to tot the various conversations going on around him. Even though Han was only possessing this body, Han could still use all of his skills and abilities easily. All of Han’s active skills were a part of his soul and he could activate them from anywhere he was no matter which body he was in. But Han couldn’t use any of his passive skills outside his own body. Han didn’t like how defenseless he was since some of his defensive skills were passive skills, but Han was still able to use all his active defensive skills and that was more than enough to deal with anyone on this floor!

According to some of the things Han was hearing, it seems the towns were having a hard time since Gretha and her sisters stopped coming. Since Han killed Taurus, the strong beasts that used to stay away from the towns out of fear were no longer scared to attack the towns! The adventurers in the towns were having a hard time trying to take care of all the monsters. One of the adventurers lamented about how he almost lost his arm to a giant lizard when they went out for a mission and Han let out an annoyed huff. The adventurers were completely outclassed by the monsters here. Okay, maybe this is his fault! Han decided that he would just send out five hundred Shadow Hunters to take care of the monsters around this floor. Since there are a lot of strong monsters, it will be beneficial to me too! I can get a lot of stat points from them and add it to the power I already have! Han took another sip of the drink he ordered along with the food as he activated his system and called his Shadow Hunters!

Outside the town, five hundred Shadow Hunters rose from the shadows and they all blasted off as they flew into the sky! All of the townspeople were surprised by their sudden appearance but nobody could even guess where they came from!

“Hello, would you like something else?”

Han looked up as he heard a woman’s voice in form of him! Oh, it is the waitress. She was a cute auburn-haired woman with short brown hair and a pair of long brown rabbit ears. There were freckles along her face and that just added to the beauty! She was the one that brought the food for Han and she seemed to be extra nice to him because she saw him as a frail old man. She was smiling very kindly and her stance was very loose as she tried to make the old man as comfortable as possible. Han shook his head.

“No, thank you. It’s been a while since this old man took food this good. Your restaurant is very nice,”

The waitress giggled happily before she waved as she started to walk away. There was a rabbit tail behind her skirt and Han wondered how the hell she brought the tail out. Did she make a hole in her skirt to make it more comfortable? Han shook his head as he was getting distracted. It was good that she doesn’t suspect a thing. Han leaned back as he looked down at his tab.

[Time before Forced Separation: 00:09]

Han just waited the time out. This was the sixth day since he has been doing these trysts and he was sure that he should have leveled up this skill enough by now! Han needed to start moving his plan forward and he didn’t have the time to stay in this town any longer! The timer counted down and there was an out-of-body feeling as Han was literally pulled through space and back into his body!

…..

Han grunted as his body jolted back to life. He had been out of his body for a while and he took a second to get himself back. He opened his eyes and he saw Gretha looking at him with a stick of meat in her hand. She gave him a little wave with a stupid smile and Han started to miss that restaurant, that waitress has a lot more sense than this idiot!

“Welcome back, Han! Want some meat? I cooked some for you! I-It’s really nice. I made it from Lightening Deer!”

Han rolled his eyes as he looked away. Lightening Deer meat was very strong and it was almost inedible! The only reason why Gretha could eat it so easily is because of her power to transform into any animal she eats. Her teeth are just that strong and her metabolism is off the charts! Han could also eat it and it wouldn’t do anything bad to him but he didn’t want to eat anything that Gretha made. Han just didn’t trust that idiot to cook anything!

[Host has leveled up the [Spectral Separation] skill to D rank. Maximum Separation time: 15 mins]

Han nodded as he saw this notification. This should be enough for him to go to the celestial plane for a while. Even if Han can’t stay in the celestial plane for a long time, it will be good if he can get a look at the landscape and the structure they have there.

Han has spoken to Gretha a lot about what she knew about the Celestials. Gretha was also like Dorea. She was someone that was once a chosen and she was granted access to the celestial plane to become a slave. Both she and her sisters have been serving Taurus for a long time so she was very familiar with his character and attitude. Han easily learned everything that Gretha told him about Taurus. With the amount of knowledge that Han has about Taurus and his family, Han was sure that he can impersonate Taurus perfectly.

Han stood from the bed and told Gretha to get ready to leave. Gretha exclaimed in annoyance! She wasn’t finished eating her meat yet! Let me just finish another stick! It’s really nice! Han didn’t even say anything! He just gave her a cold stare that made her entire body shiver and she laughed nervously as she stood up!

“Okay, okay! I’m going!”

Han closed his eyes and sighed again as he regretted killing all of Gretha’s sisters. Any of them would have been better than this idiot. She is one of the clumsiest people I’ve ever met in my life! How did someone like her even become the servant of a celestial? I feel like Taurus should’ve killed her with this annoying attitude she has!

And Han was right! If Taurus knew that this was what Gretha was really like, he would have killed her a long time ago! But Taurus never knew about it because Gretha never showed him this side of her! Gretha is an amazing actor and she can pretend to be anything she wants to be. The only reason she shows her actual self to Han is that she still believes Han is in love with her! She doesn’t have to pretend around him because she thinks that he will never kill her no matter how sloppy she is!

Gretha managed to finish getting her things ready and she gave Han a nod to show that she was ready. Han was surprised by how her demeanor suddenly changed. She no longer looked like the idiot Han knew! She now looked like a proper lady that served a young master. Han just shook his head to get used to it. It doesn’t change the fact that she is really an idiot. Han used a mental command to bring Taurus’ body out of his [Shadow World] and he immediately activated his skill!

[Spectral Separation] has been activated!

Han’s body fell down on the bed and Han opened his eyes inside Taurus’ body. Han inspected himself and he was happy when he saw that there were no injuries on his body. Taurus looked clean and his body didn’t even show any signs of decaying at all! Is it because he is a celestial? Maybe their bodies decay at a slower rate than normal people? This should work perfectly!

Gretha reached into her bag and brought out a pair of clothes for Taurus. Taurus went into another room and he came out wearing clean white robes that a young master would usually wear. It was very well made and there wasn’t a single spec of dust on him. These were once Taurus’ clothes and Han was happy that Gretha still had them.

“Dorea! Answer me this instant!”

Taurus put both hands behind his back and called for Dorea to open a portal for them in the most commanding tone he had ever taken! Both Han and Gretha immediately felt that pull on their navels and they disappeared!
