《An Ancient's Leisure》Chapter 11

Johnny examines the amulet and let out a smile, satisfied. The demon was quite honest, it didn't target those around Johnny; the curse only targeted Johnny, and it served to increase Johnny's temptation. It also greatly increased the pleasure of indulging these temptations. Johnny was very satisfied with it.
Johnny continued to tour with Mary Rose, and Johnny greatly enjoyed indulging in all the local delicacies, and his time alone with Mary Rose grew increasingly more pleasurable. Johnny felt that he was becoming a hedonist, and he often had a glass of expensive liquor.
Although he was enjoying himself, Mary Rose was somewhat worried. Is he depressed? She couldn’t help but wonder.
Alas, Johnny was not going to stop anytime soon.
Eventually, their trip came to an end, and they went back home.
…
…
When they arrived back home, at the airport, Johnny could still sense the thief lingering in the surroundings and he let out a smile. Since he’s so dedicated, I’ll reward him. He thinks.
“Thief, come out!” Johnny calls out.
Before long, the thief appeared in front of Johnny.
Johnny smiles. “Leo, give me your cultivation technique. I’ll complete it for you.” He says.
Leo doesn’t hesitate and takes out an old journal, giving it to Johnny.
Johnny quickly flips through it and nods. “The Mountain Tiger technique. Not bad. Okay, go back. This could take a few days.” He says.
The thief left and Johnny began the trip home.
As Johnny and Mary Rose went to find a taxi, a commotion occurred nearby.
“Ooh! What are you doing here, little buddy? All alone? That’s not good! But that’s okay! I’ll take care of you! I’m in need of a snake’s gallbladder for a love spell…” A tall, beautiful brown-haired lady says. She had approached the snake and now there were various magical seals constricting the snake. The lady obviously wished to rob this snake.

Mary Rose frowns and holds out her hand. “Hey, lady! Leave that snake alone! That’s ours!” She calls out.
As the brown haired girl looked at Mary Rose and as Mary Rose looked the brown haired girl, Johnny couldn’t help but smile. I think Mary Rose found her other half. They’re sort of similar. He thinks, amused.
The tall lady looks at the snake, then back to Mary Rose. “Are you sure this thing is yours? Hmm. How much do you want for it?” She asks.
Mary Rose quickly thinks it through before looking at Johnny. “Do we need this snake?” She asks.
Johnny shrugs. “Not really, I guess. But if we keep it, I’m pretty sure it could be pretty powerful. At that point, it would be useful to have around.” He says.
Mary Rose nods and turns back to the lady. “We’re not selling, lady!” She confirms.
The lady lets out a sigh and she releases the snake, allowing it to fall to the ground. Then she walks over and hands out a card. “Alright. Here’s my card. Please let me know if you come across any other demon snakes. I really need one to complete a love spell. I’m so old already and I still don’t have a boyfriend! My mom’s beginning to nag!” She says before turning and leaving.
Johnny lets out a smile. Interesting lady. He thinks.
…
…
Mary Rose went back home, and Johnny also arrived back at his parent’s house.
“Look who’s home? Mr. I don’t need school because I’m loaded!” Johnny’s older sister, Sara says with a teasing smile.
“Sis! You’re home! How’s school? You know, if you want to drop out, let me know. I’ll take care of you.” Johnny says as he approaches for a hug.

Sara lets the kid hug him. “Hmph! Who wants to be supported by you?” She says, unwilling.
Johnny looks over and sees there was another lady visiting their house, sitting next to his brother. Johnny smirks. “Let me guess. Miss Company Ink?” He says with a chuckle.
A red blush immediately appears on the lady’s face.
Aaron quickly gets up to put Johnny into a headlock. “Damn, kid! Have some respect!” He says angrily.
Johnny lets out a laugh as he escapes. “Don’t mind me. Where’s mom and dad?” He asks.
Sara smirks. “Seeing as you’re loaded now, they also took a vacation. They’re enjoying life on a tropical island!” She says, amused.
“Oh?” Johnny says with a raised eyebrow. “What about you guys? Do you want to take a vacation?” He asks.
Sara looks at Aaron and they both smirk. “Damn, kid. We thought you’d never ask!” Sara says. The two had their own plans. Aaron wanted to take his girlfriend to the Central Continent to travel through a few countries, and Sara’s friends had also planned a trip to the Great South.
Aaron lets out a laugh. “We’ll be counting on you, little brother!” He says, satisfied.
Johnny lets out a chuckle. “That’s great. Then me and Mary Rose can have the house. Everyone’s happy.” He says, also satisfied.

I, who should have died after being hit by a car, was born again in another world. However, I was born in a shady minor family that used magic and controlled wooden puppets called the Marren Clan. Possessing a strong interest in magic since my previous life, I spend my time zealously studying magic to the point where even the people in the vicinity draw back. One day, I heard I was to be married to my little sister when I turned 16 in accordance with the traditions of the Marren Clan and decided to flee to the city. For now, since I have the strongest magic, I guess I should idle around making only enough money so that I don’t have to work for my whole life.
