Chapter 635 - Demi God Spirit
Chapter 635 - Demi God Spirit
"A talking bird? What language does it speak, Ely?" Sylvia was suddenly surprised.
"English, but with a British accent. Maybe a spirit from England?" Elysia also wondered. She never thought that the spirit residing within the white bracelet would awaken now.
"Hmm?" The bird turned around and tilted its head to stare at two beautiful girls and a cat.
The bird's blue eyes stared into the girl's purplish-blue eyes for a few moments. Elysia then broke the awkwardness to confirm Elena's guess. "A long-tailed raven?"
"Wh, what!? You call the glorious and fabulous me a raven? Can't you see this awe-inspiring beauty of me, young human girl? It was a blasphemy worthy of the caning. However, I will forgive you if you can provide me with information about this place." The bird puffed out its chest arrogantly.
"Hm, let's see… That's to say, we're in some part of hell? Maybe…" Elysia patted her chin and answered with a playful tone.
*Rumble*
A thunderbolt seemed to strike the bird, but it only happened mentally.
The bird staggered slightly and fell. It pounded the floor in sorrow. "I've calculated the risk I took, but am I bad at math? Instead of ascending to Demi-God, I fell into hell? Am I already dead? We're now in a riverboat to the afterlife?"
'Pfft, hehe, what's with this talking bird? Are we too naughty to make it cry, Ely?' Elena covered her mouth as she almost laughed.
'Hehe, it seems so. I will apologize and explain our situation. After that, we will dig up information from this talking raven.' Elysia smiled in amusement.
"I'm sorry, we may not be in hell, but underworld." Elysia gently patted the bird's back with her finger.
"Underworld? A world of ghosts and demons? So, are we ghosts now? No, I may still be in my meditation, and all of this is just a delusion of my heart demon. I will close my eyes and rid you of my tribulation to godhood!" The bird folded its legs and closed its eyes.
'Oh no, this bird has entered reality denial mode, Ely. Let's make this bird aware that everything is real by giving it a little blow.' Elena shook her head in surprise. She then shared the funny thing with Rhea, so no one was left behind because of the language barrier.
Elysia agreed with the proposal. She twirled her fingers and made a small whirlwind to wake the bird.
"Huh? This is weird. Illusions can't be so real, can they?" The bird muttered in surprise.
"Do I need to give you a pinch or a pinch to help you convince yourself that this is the real world, raven spirit?" Elysia offered a little help.
"Hmm?" The bird opened its eyes and tried to peck itself. The moment the pain came, it immediately screamed as if the apocalypse had already occurred. "Ouch! So, this isn't an illusion!? Hell!"
However, Elysia immediately pinched the hysterical bird's beak with her fingers. "Sshh, you can summon trouble like demons or evil spirits because of your shriek."
"Tsk, don't touch me, you evil spirit in human form. How dare you touch the glorious me with your dirty hands." The bird pushed the human girl's hand away in annoyance.
"Okay, can you calm down a bit? My cat seems to want to do something to you now." Elysia stroked Vanessa's head. She didn't know why her cat kept staring at the bird with sparkling eyes.
"Hou? It's just a weak fluffy ball. It can't hurt me. You should kneel as the glorious me graced you with my noble presence, young human girl. You have the honor to explain this situation to the glorious me." The bird once again puffed out its chest in an arrogant manner.
At that moment, Vanessa leaped from her master's lap and approached the bird. She didn't need to know what this bird was saying, but she knew this feathery thing was disrespectful to her master.
Hence, she gave a little beating to the wild bird with her little paw.
"Ow, ow, ow, you dare to attack me, the cat!? You deserve the death penalty! Martial law will be enforced here! Accept your punishment, presumptuous cat!" The bird flapped its wings and unleashed several aerial knife attacks.
However, the cat dodged and unleashed a counterattack with vicious precision.
*Rumble*
Blue lightning struck the bird, and it simply lost control. The bird plunged back onto the floor with a stiff body and a slight smell of burning.
"How, how is that even possible?" The bird muttered with incredible difficulty.
"Hm, I just warned you. Please pay attention to your attitude and listen to me. You run the risk of becoming a Demi-God roast bird." Elysia beckoned Vanessa to go closer. She didn't blame anyone for what just happened.
"My feathers, my beautiful feathers! How dare you!" The bird was about to attack the cat again, but a tremendous pressure suddenly came and made it fall flat on the floor.
'You are a high-level spirit, correct? So, I presume you can understand this telepathy. Don't ever try to offend my master, or you will regret it. There's always a limit to where she's being nice and friendly. My master can turn into a demon and slaughter your entire being. Be nice and cooperate, or I'll have to hit you so you can realize your current position.' Vanessa threatened the bird like a predator to her prey.
*Gulp*
The bird gulped its saliva with goosebumps. Was the cat surprisingly a Demi-God too? But that cat's aura was a bit weird.
Even so, the bird just nodded, and the pressure suddenly disappeared. 'Damn, that cat is probably a great demon's servant. I'll have to play along with this for a while and take advantage of this.'
"Come here. I will heal you." Elysia beckoned the bird to come closer too. At the same time, she put up a sound barrier around to keep confidential information here.
"..." The bird had no choice and complied. It didn't show its arrogance anymore.
Elysia stretched out her hand and applied a little healing magic to restore the bird's damaged feathers.
The bird widened its eyes in absolute surprise. Such healing techniques existed here? Someone with healing abilities... Was this girl a demon or a saint?
"You know, I got this from the auction house, and you popped out of here just now. Can you tell us about your situation, spirit raven?" Elysia patted the white bracelet on her wrist.
"Who are you calling a spirit raven? I'm not just a bird, but I'm 'The Glorious'!" The bird threw its rebuttal.
"Is that your name?" Elysia tilted her head slightly.
"No, I am known as Victorious. I am also known as the Glory, the Glorious, the holy night spirit bird from Europe." The bird introduces its stunning identity with pride. Yet, it just realized something a bit odd. "Eh, wait a minute. Auction house? How could my sanctuary have a miserable ending at the auction house and be bought by you?"
"How would I know? This white bracelet appeared at the auction house, and I bought it." Elysia shrugged her shoulders.
"No way... How could that be possible? Has the Great Brittain collapsed? It's already the end of the world, right? How long have I been cultivating to reach the Demi-God level? King George the Great... Is he still alive?" Victorious held its head with its wings as if a headache came all of a sudden.
Elysia then smiled and explained some things to this poor Demi-God. Instead, she digs up some information naturally with her wordplay. It only lasted thirty minutes, and the bird was finally enlightened.
"So, two hundred and seventy years have passed, huh..." Victorious sighed and looked at this giant ship and the warships around. "We're at war? What kind of iron ship is this? How can we end up in the underworld if the Earth hasn't come to an end? We're not dead yet, are we?"
"Well, we are on the mothership, and they are warships. It is because an ancient underwater portal gate dragged us into this realm. You will know the details later. But, now back to you. What do you know about the secret world of our planet, Earth? Are you aware that the Gods are there?" Elysia cut the small talk and went straight to the point.
"Sshh... Anything about them is taboo and shouldn't be talked about lightly. Do you know about them? Don't try to challenge their wrath, little girl. I warn you." Victorious looked left and right in panic.
"It's good. We're now in the underworld. They're not here unless they're devils. I've explained our situation, but I want to know some sensitive matters. In exchange, you can also ask a few questions. Is that fair? We are covered in the sound barrier now, so any information is safe." Elysia made a deal with a professional expression.
"Hm, that sounds fair to me. Alright, we've come to an agreement. The glorious me will kindly enlighten you." Victorious nodded in agreement.
"First of all, are you a male or female raven, Victor?" Elysia started the conversation with something light.
Victorious snorted. "How bold of you to assume my gender. Elemental spirit doesn't need that. However, I chose a graceful and elegant woman as my preference. And, I'm a holy night spirit bird. Oh wait, I'm a Demi God now. I can already form my dream humanoid body."
"Okay, you are a female bird, and I will call you Victor. Back to our agreement. So, these are my questions. Please answer honestly, as I will know when you are lying. Are you--" Elysia then threw a series of questions.
Elena and Rhea contributed significantly to suggesting many critical questions.. They would unearth a lot of sensitive and deep information from this Demi-God bird.
