751: Chapter 747: Fleeing (Seeking Subscriptions, Seeking Monthly Tickets)

A Water Elemental Lord who desired to tour her own world had even signed a contract with her own wife, and Chen Yu wasn’t sure whether to marvel at his wife’s good luck or say she had gotten herself into a big mess.

As the name implies, a Water Elemental Lord is indeed a water element, but the inclusion of the word “Lord” is quite telling, for it means that they are the rulers of elemental creatures.

Elemental Lord is not just a title or a designation, nor only a measure of strength, it also symbolizes a kind of authority, the emblem of command and leadership over other water elements.

In the Elemental Plane, any Elemental Lord commands an army composed of elemental creatures, and what this army looks like depends on the Elemental Lord’s tastes and preferences—especially for water elements.

To put it simply, Lady Ni Nasu, the Water Elemental Lord, has a Water Elemental Army at her disposal that she can summon at any time, and if while touring Earth she happens to be displeased or sees something she doesn’t like, she can call forth her army at will.

As for the strength of this Water Elemental Lord’s army… If she desired, destroying the Tokyo Metropolis would pose no problem.

With an Elemental Lord present, water elements could easily use the seawater of Tokyo Bay to raise a tsunami and engulf all of Tokyo.

Of course, the Water Elemental Lord’s capability to do such a thing is one matter, whether she would actually do it is another entirely.

Not to mention the Inari God in Tokyo, the two ghouls in Meiji Shrine also would not stand idly by if a tsunami threatened to drown Tokyo.

What’s more, Jounouchi Hiromi had signed a contract with this Water Elemental Lord.

Thinking of the contract, Chen Yu promptly asked Jounouchi Hiromi, “Hiromi, what kind of contract did you sign with this Water Elemental Lord?”

“It’s a hiring contract.” The one who spoke was Ni Nasu, but she used Jounouchi Hiromi’s voice.

This wasn’t really surprising, as water elements usually don’t have a physical form, and under normal circumstances, what you’d see is something like a tall wave with two eyes.

However, upon becoming an Elemental Lord, they would gradually try to maintain a distinctive appearance to differentiate themselves from other Elemental Lords.

Although it may seem incredible to humans, in the Elemental Realm, if two Elemental Lords looked identical, it would inevitably lead to war.

Earth elements are better off in this respect; born with different shapes due to the environment of their genesis, they are twisted and turned into all kinds of forms and hardly ever identical.

Wind elements usually appear as tornadoes, distinguished only by size.

Fire elements constantly change until becoming an Elemental Lord when they finally stabilize into a form, but even then, they’re still always burning, constantly changing too.

Only water elements consciously sculpt and fix their appearance.

So in a certain sense, it could be said that water elements are the most beauty-conscious among all the elements.

As for why this Water Elemental Lord named Ni Nasu would take the form of Jounouchi Hiromi, even when considering the entire Multiverse, the Giant Dragon Clan has always been a byword for the beauty of power.

“Although it may be presumptuous, I still wish to understand why, Ni Nasu Lord, you have chosen to visit our world?” Though the “Multiverse Universal Necromancy Spell Compendium” mentioned that Water Elemental Lords are usually very curious, when faced with the real thing, Chen Yu still wanted to ask what was going on.

Sure enough, Ni Nasu nodded towards Chen Yu and explained, “Because of a trade, I acquired blood belonging to the Legendary Blue Dragon, enhancing my strength.

This sparked my curiosity, and I wished to witness and understand what the world beyond the Elemental Realm is truly like.

By the Mother of the Ocean above, I cannot forever remain a tiny wave coddled in Mother’s embrace.”

“Alright then, welcome to our world, Ni Nasu Lord,” said Chen Yu, who understood and accepted her explanation, and welcomed her: “Since you have already entered into a contract with my wife, I will arrange for your tour of our world.

However, there are some requests that I hope you will abide by.”

“Please speak; within the constraints of the signed contract, I am willing to accept reasonable requests.” Lesser elemental creatures might be somewhat dull, but beings like Elemental Lords are highly intelligent—they simply have less experience, which makes them appear somewhat naive.

And this naivety is one of the main reasons some Elemental Lords choose to leave the Elemental Realm to travel far and wide—they need to accumulate more knowledge to strengthen themselves in order to advance to the level of Elemental Overlords.

Hearing what Ni Nasu had to say, Chen Yu naturally looked towards Jounouchi Hiromi and instructed her: “Since it’s you, my wife, who has signed the contract with Ni Nasu Lord, I’ll leave it to you to teach her how to adapt to life on Earth.”

“I understand, don’t worry, I’ll tell her what she needs to be aware of,” Jounouchi Hiromi certainly grasped Chen Yu’s implications; she couldn’t possibly let Ni Nasu wander around in her Lightning Dragon Person form outside the Necromantic Space—that would cause an uproar.

Seeing that Jounouchi Hiromi understood his meaning, Chen Yu then busied himself with his own matters, continuing to refurbish the two new islands and relocating a series of buildings from the old island to the new ones.

Meanwhile, Jounouchi Hiromi took Ni Nasu to the castle, partly to host the Elemental Lord and partly to inform her of various things to be mindful of.

“Damn it, these Church curs just won’t leave me alone!” Gilles de Rais cursed, holding his shoulder that had been burned by Holy Water.

He couldn’t afford to stop, though; enduring the searing pain in his shoulder, he hurried along with Joan of Arc.

They were on their way to the United Kingdom; originally, Gilles de Rais had planned to take Joan of Arc on the Eurostar to the UK, but before they could reach the station, they were entangled by Witch Hunters dispatched by the Holy See. freewёbnoνel.com

Because of her faith, Joan of Arc was reluctant to clash with the Church’s people, but when it became clear that the Witch Hunters intended to kill Gilles de Rais, she still summoned her lifetime’s Sword, the Sword of Saint Catherine, to assist Gilles de Rais in repelling these agents of the Holy See.

Because Joan of Arc did not wish to kill these followers of God, Gilles de Rais had to let them go.

But this also caused them considerable trouble.

The spared Witch Hunters soon called for reinforcements, forcing Gilles de Rais and the non-violent Joan of Arc to abandon their plans of taking the Eurostar and to begin their escape instead.

During this ordeal, Gilles de Rais, in order to protect Joan of Arc and because of the Witch Hunters and Paladins’ targeting, sustained many injuries, even with a Vampire’s strong regenerative abilities.
