"Quick! Get the Giant Turtle Shield!"
"Boss, it's too late!"
No, we can't let the shells hit them!
Anxiety welled up in his heart. He couldn't let the people who came to rescue him get hurt no matter what. But now he had no means to stop the artillery shells from moving forward. Despair mixed with negative emotions appeared in his heart.
but--
"Miss Angelini's request, Slime Shield!"
As Marudo's men fell into anxiety and the rebounding shells were about to sink the merchant ship, a ball of green sticky substance that covered the entire hull emerged from the water.
Without making any sound, the shell gradually softened.
"Well done, Slime!"
"Which Kumi are damaged?"
"Numbers one through forty-seven, Mr. Ryan."
"Save the pieces and put them back together later."
"yes!"
It seems that the male succubus Mr. Ryan who set out earlier, as well as Kumi and the slime, rescued Marudo. As he breathed a sigh of relief, the chains suddenly accelerated and injected magic power into his body in a more violent manner. When he came to his senses, he found that the chains had been tied from his ankles to his neck.
Breathing began to become difficult, and I could lose consciousness completely at any time. My body, which was entangled by the curse of sacrifice, lost control. My vision became completely dark, and even the sounds around me began to become smaller. The pain had numbed my senses, and the world fell into darkness.
I guess... I won't be able to see Her Highness Ella again. I'm sorry.
“Stop—for—me!!!!”
The familiar voice should be Miss Angelini, but Miss Angelini is no match for Wezhi, this has been known before -
"Lord of the Deep Sea? How is that possible!"
Boom boom boom! ! !
Like an island sinking into the sea, a shockwave of fear that rose from the depths of the heart exploded in the darkness, the world began to regain its color, and the chains bound to the body gradually lost their power.
He opened his eyes immediately and saw Miss Angelini sitting on the back of the Deep Sea Lord, holding the lantern tentacles tightly, and colliding with the blue light shield 30 meters high in mid-air. Blue and white sparks flew everywhere, and the entire magic circle emitted extremely unstable fluctuations. The disappearance of the power of the chain must have concentrated the magic power on defense.
Discovering that even the Deep Sea Lord's impact could not destroy the magic circle, Weizhi breathed a sigh of relief, inserted his long staff on the opposite side, and began to inject magic power into it.
"Breaking through the Dragon Language barrier is impossible!"
"Don't underestimate the Deep Sea Lord! Bite it to pieces!!!"
The Deep Sea Lord opened his enormous mouth, which was larger than his forty-meter body, and bit the barrier with his terrifying white-blue fangs.
clang clang.
As lightning flashed, the teeth bit through the light shield, and then countless cracks symbolizing destruction appeared on the dome. With great difficulty, the Deep Sea Lord gradually exerted force on his upper and lower jaws.
Crack, crack, crack—bang.
Finally unable to withstand the violence, the light shield shattered like glass.
"Did it work? Lord of the Deep Sea, get back into the water and try again."
"Gurgle, gurgle."
Miss Angelini's expectant voice and the Deep Sea Lord's grin rang in my ears. After regaining a little strength, I began to try to break free from the chains.
"You... actually... - [Reverse Cross Lightning]."
In my vision, I saw Wezhi with an enraged expression, lowering his head and chanting a spell.
"Ms. Angelina! Get out of the way!"
but--
"How disappointing, uncle."
"Fukan?! — 『Red Lotus Wings』."
The figure of His Highness Shen Gan suddenly appeared beside her, but before she could grab the back of Wezhi's neck, she was blocked by a transparent magic shield. Then, a three-meter-high wall of fire forced His Highness Shen Gan back.
Turning around at an extremely fast speed, Weizhi showed a complicated expression.
"So Fukagan is coming too—but after you've exposed yourself, you won't be able to defeat me."
My heart, which was about to be at ease, was hanging again, and I couldn't help but think, "If only His Highness Shen Gan hadn't said anything at that time, it would have been better." As I was thinking this, I seemed to see a red object flashing on the distant mountain.
Armor-piercing bullet
The sniper shot from thousands of yards away drew a perfect parabola and accurately hit the shoulder of Wezhi who turned around to focus his attention on Shen Gan.
This must be some magic from Miss Luty.
“Ugh!”
In just a moment, blood spurted out from Weizhi's right shoulder.
"The sacrificial magic circle has been destroyed, uncle. It's time to give up."
"I'll let you go this time!"
Weizhi, who kept gasping for breath and didn't even care about the wound on his right shoulder, walked up to him and tried to pick him up after he had broken free from the chains. With his current physical strength, it was absolutely impossible for him to resist.
He retreated step by step, and finally felt the high temperature emitted by the "Red Lotus Wings" behind him. If he retreated another step, he would definitely be turned into ashes by the flames.
He stopped in fear and watched Weizhi approaching him tremblingly.
"Sacrifice..."
I must not be caught by Weizhi again. Even the "Red Lotus Wings" are not a wall without thickness. As long as I can endure the temporary pain, I can rush through and receive the healing magic of His Highness Ella.
He poured strength into his legs, suppressed the trembling brought on by fear, lifted his feet, and stepped into the "Red Lotus Wings".
“It’s not—over—yet!!! Arrow of fire, [Holy Pestle Strike] ahhhhhh!!!”
Before actually touching the "Red Lotus Wings", the voice of Her Highness Ella was heard from outside. Immediately afterwards, a golden figure in white healer's clothes rushed into the flames, carrying an indomitable momentum, and swung up from below a golden giant hammer as big as a stone gate, knocking Wedge head-on onto the distant beach. The grooves caused by the friction were dragged for a distance of seven or eight meters.
"H-H--Tina, sorry to have kept you waiting."
"No, no... Your Highness, Ella, it's great that you could come."
Ignoring the tears streaming down her eyes, she put on a smiling expression in response to Princess Ella who was panting and looking back to ask her questions. However, she could no longer resist the invasion of weakness and lost consciousness.
Chapter 89: Finale
*创世纪6187年1月10日 上午8:11分 龙岛本岛『赫尔卡尔』
Private residence in Fjords.
This is a room decorated with luxurious carpets and ornate reliefs.
The steaming teacups on the round table continuously exuded the aroma of a mixture of honey and milk. The egg tarts, cream puffs and various colorful puddings were served on plates, accompanied by fresh fruits and cookies. Anyone who saw it would think that this was a place prepared for a girls' tea party.
In fact, this was exactly the place that Fuos had prepared to receive Ella and Tina.
It is now the third day since the conflict was resolved.
"Your Majesty, Phoebus, are you calling us here for the festival?"
Placing the steaming cup of tea gently on the table, Ella asked Fios, who was sitting across from her.
Three days ago, after taking over Iris's use of the "Spirit Conjuration" magic, he immediately traveled around Dragon Island as Entalosfiel, using the pseudo-original sin seal to control the characteristics of sea beasts and expelling all the sea beasts surrounding Dragon Island. Although the specific reason was unclear, the pseudo-original sin seal used by him would not produce any side effects, so there was no need to worry.
After quickly cleaning up the sea beasts, he rushed to the north of Helkar, changed back into his identity as a healer, and left Iris on the distant beach. He happened to meet Tina who was about to step into the "Red Lotus Wings", so he immediately took out the "Arrow of Fire" and used the "Holy Pestle" that he had used to deal with the nest beetles in the Holy Academy to knock away Wedge who was trying to take Tina away.
Judging from the situation at the time, Angelique and Ruti seemed to have had a conflict with Wedge a long time ago. Not only that, Angelique also brought Kumi and Marudo to the north for support. Although it is not known how she did it, since no one was injured, there is no problem. After Tina lost consciousness on the beach, she woke up from her coma after a day.
As for the festival just mentioned, it is what Dragon Island is currently holding to commemorate the "mysterious blue-haired elf" who saved the dragon clan. According to Fuos, this festival will be held for ten days and will be funded by him personally. All food and drinks will be provided free of charge to residents and tourists on the island.
As for the aftermath, Wedg and Valais, who had attempted to harm Tina, were imprisoned in the Dragon Island dungeon, while his group was housed in the Dragon Clan's palace. Fios didn't seem to blame them for harming his brother Wedg or shielding Tina, the underwater creature. While he'd overheard remarks like, "Entalosphiel is surprisingly strong," "They showed up at this perfect time; there must be a connection," and "This is the Dragon Clan's chance; we absolutely must not let them get in their way," he'd only overheard them, so he couldn't ask for details.
Ella's words broke the awkward atmosphere in the room. Fios picked up the teacup and took a sip. Judging from his frowning behavior, the sweet drink in the teacup seemed to be something he didn't like. So the reason he prepared these was to entertain Ella. At least the various desserts on the table did not fit Fios's warrior image no matter how you looked at it.
"Hmm...it has nothing to do with the festival, Lady Elelaya."
Putting down the frowning teacup, Fios continued to add.
"Actually, I invited you here for two other things."
"Two other things?"
Ella blinked. She had already thought of the reason why Fuos asked her to come. It was nothing more than the issue of Tina and the underwater people. But if it was two different things, she would be a little confused. She subconsciously turned around to look at Ruthie, and the answer she got was also incomprehensible.
"Well, first of all, let's talk about Miss Tina and Weedy."
This is indeed what happened.
Keeping an expressionless face, Ella looked at Tina, who was sitting on her left in a white formal dress. The only people who came today were Ruthie, Tina, Camisia, and herself. Since Tina's identity had been exposed, she no longer hid the scales that symbolized the underwater people.
"Are you going to deal with the last of the underwater people? If so, I will take Tina back to the Demon Clan. She won't cause any trouble to you Dragon Clan. Right now, we are the only ones who know Tina's identity, right?"
"Uh...it's not a punishment. I'm very sorry for my brother Wezhi's reckless behavior. I've already questioned him. It was all his own will and he doesn't represent the entire Dragon Clan. If possible, I hope Miss Tina can stay in the Dragon Clan. With Miss Tina's ability to control sea beasts, even in the active season of sea beasts, with the help of the route guardian beasts, Dragon Island ships can still trade normally at sea."
An earnest look emerged on Fuos's face, showing no other thoughts at all. Perhaps Tina was really important to the dragon clan. He even stood up, bowed slightly to Tina and said words of apology.
Watching Fuos's every move, Ella felt relieved a little. At least Fuos was not trying to snatch Tina away by force, but was asking for it in the form of negotiation, which could save a lot of trouble.
"What do you think, Tina? If you're okay with staying here, I won't ask to take you away. However, Your Majesty, Fous, must ensure Tina's safety. Also, what does Your Majesty plan to do with the matter of Wezhi?"
Ella's words made Fios's brows relax, and he changed his expression into surprise, and quickly added.
"Of course, of course I will ensure Miss Tina's safety. Even if I have to mobilize my personal guards to protect her, that's no problem. As long as it's what Miss Tina wants, I will definitely do my best to do it. As for Weizhi..."
Fios's voice suddenly dropped, and there was an unspeakable bitterness in his tone.
"I will hang you after the ceremony according to Dragon Law."
"Hanging?"
Fios' words made Ella frown slightly. Although it was indeed infuriating that Wezhi tried to use Tina as a sacrifice and hanging was justified, it was still a bit cruel to say it so bluntly. If Shen Gan knew that her uncle, who had loved her since childhood, had ended up like this, she would probably be sad.
While Ella was thinking about how to deal with the situation, Tina hesitated and timidly raised her hand.
"Um... Your Highness Ella, I wish to remain with the Dragon Clan... My current level is too low, and following Your Highness Ella would only be a burden. Furthermore, as the last remnant of our underwater civilization, I should compensate for the active period of sea beasts created by our underwater civilization. Once my level increases and the problem of the active period of sea beasts is resolved, I will leave Dragon Island and seek out Your Highness Ella... As for Your Majesty Fios, I hope you can lower the level of Lord Weeji's punishment. I don't want Miss Fuka to dislike me because of this matter."
Because she has regained her memory, Tina speaks much more fluently than before, but this is also due to her prior training. Tina's stay in Dragon Island was the result of everyone's discussion and Tina's own decision. It was decided before she came, and now it is just a matter of turning the rehearsal into a performance.
No matter what, it is too dangerous to keep Tina, who is only level five, around. Besides, this is not a farewell forever. He has high-level teleportation magic. Whenever he wants to see Tina, he can return to Dragon Island at any time, which can also help him supervise Fuos.
From what we can see now, Fios's behavior is the same as everyone imagined. He keeps breathing heavily and looking at Tina excitedly. To Ella, that look is no different from the way a father looks at his newborn daughter.
"Really? I'll go arrange for Tina-san's protection right now!"
"Wait, didn't His Majesty Phoebus mention two things earlier? What about the other one?"
"Oh, I'm so sorry, Lady Elelaya."
Fuos retracted his foot, which was about to run out of the palace, touched his nose, and sat on the chair awkwardly.
"Ahem... I forgot something important. The second thing is about Lady Elelaya. In return for the demons helping our dragons resolve this sea monster uprising, I will, on behalf of the dragons, reduce the tariffs on the demons by half, until Miss Tina leaves the dragons. Furthermore, I intend to transfer the mining rights to five mineral veins in the east and west to Lady Elelaya. Do you think this is appropriate?"
"Eh? Wait, we demons didn't do anything this time, did we? The blue-haired elves were responsible for the retreat of the sea monsters."
Almost choking on the tea she drank, Ella took the handkerchief handed to her by Lotte behind her and wiped the corner of her mouth.
Although it was indeed me who used the Pseudo-Original Sin Seal to make the sea beasts retreat temporarily, I did not expect to be thanked. Besides, that was done by "Entalosphiel" and had nothing to do with me. Well, it had nothing to do with me.
"... Isn't Entarosviel your sister?... What's the difference between her and the demons helping her?"
"Hmm? Did His Majesty Phoebus just say anything?"
I always felt that Fuos seemed to have muttered something extraordinary just now, but this desire to ask further questions was quickly covered by Fuos's next words.
"I'm sorry, I seemed distracted earlier. Don't worry about it, Lady Elelaya. However, you must accept this gift of gratitude from our dragon clan. At least, please consider it as a token of your gratitude to Miss Tina."
"Well……"
Ella exhaled softly and brushed back the soft golden hair that fell on the side of her face.
[This is a little awkward...]
If it was just ordinary food, she could still accept it, but this has reached the level of communication between countries, and just thinking about it gives her a headache. It would be fine if Camisia could speak at this time, but she is still immersed in self-blame for not protecting herself well.
"Is it better to refuse? No, even if I refuse, they'll definitely come up with some other excuse. I should ask for something else instead."
As she thought this, Ella placed her hand on her small chin and pretended to be thinking.
