Chapter Vol. 3 Ch. 136
“Tsk...”
Hilda completely ignored the woman’s intimidation or attempts to sow discord. However, as the woman had said, the special communication device she held in her palm did not emit any light or frequency in the vicinity, as if it had fallen silent completely.@@@@
“Well, I still need to hurry up and collect other fragments. I don’t have time to waste with you, little one. But rest assured, it’s rare to see a good seed that can awaken some of my power. I won’t rush to pluck you off. The production base over there needs a guardian, so you’ll be responsible for it.”
“Hilda Kulk, right? Congratulations, you will be the first angel created by the return of the Goddess of Earth Seth after her return to the world~”
The woman with gray eyes and green hair walked forward. Although Hilda didn’t know what she was up to, she knew it wouldn’t be good. Since she couldn’t pass on any information, even though she knew her hopes were slim, she still spread her wings and tried to escape.
Unfortunately, the woman just flicked her wrist, and the gray vines that Hilda summoned, but were easily transformed, wrapped around her tightly, binding her like a dumpling, unable to move on the ground.
There was obviously an unimaginable gap in strength between the two sides.
“Well, stop struggling. This is a gift that many people dream of but find it hard to obtain. You will gain powers that were once completely unimaginable, and all you need to do is show a little loyalty. After all~ the gifts of the gods are not without cost.”
The woman crouched down, extending a white, delicate finger and lightly tapping it on the forehead of the White Feather Mage, whose mouth was sealed and could only stare at her with cold eyes.
“!!!”
A large amount of grayish air, as substantial as matter, swarmed into Hilda’s body along her fingertips, causing her to convulse violently, rolling her eyes back and emitting a miserable groan from her mouth, appearing as though she were enduring some terrible pain.
The woman who called herself Seth withdrew her slender hand, which had only made contact for a few seconds, and began to chuckle lightly as if suddenly remembering something.
“Oh, by the way, this process might be a little painful, after all, it’s the conversion of life force, so it might be slightly impure, but it’s okay, just bear with it, it’ll pass, and if you can’t bear it, it’s just death after all~ As my excellent descendant, I believe you can do it, so cheer up~”
A vast expanse of eerie grayness spread downward from Hilda’s snow-white hair, gradually assimilating everything about her.
Meanwhile, Seth seemed completely unconcerned with the outcome, standing up straight and gazing into the sky where Spryce Island was crumbling, and the Magic Island, entwined with gray vegetation, was rising from the abyss.
Could it be that Seth, the original god, had a similar personality?
Despite being fragments split from the same god, having similar personalities, there exists such a huge difference in their concepts, which truly surprises Violet.
Although their ways of speaking, habits, and many other aspects are quite similar, this Seth... whether it’s the more frivolous tone or the indifferent, even cruel attitude towards life, it’s completely different from the stable and gentle Sethlin.
That former 【Southern Calamity Illusionary Cloud】 that ravaged everywhere to gather power had yet another personality. Can the same individual really differentiate to such an extent over time?
While the priestess was contemplating, the other party’s incessant voice showed no sign of stopping.
“In short, if you’re here to stop me, then congratulations, you’ve done it, succeeded. As long as this island is destroyed, those little creatures you call abyssal beasts won’t be able to move at all. Are you happy?”
“But...”
A sly smile curled upon Seth’s rosy lips, seemingly unconcerned about what she referred to as the “production base” being destroyed.
“Just by sacrificing some grunts, I can lure strong ones like you here. For me, it’s a great profit. After all...”
As if suddenly realizing something, she deliberately covered her mouth, revealing a smile tinged with a hint of trepidation.
“Phew, that was close. Almost exposed the plan~ Anyway, take your time to figure it out. Also, if you’ve damaged my toy, don’t think I’ll let it slide. Next time we meet, how about you personally take up that job? Hehe~”
The figure of the green-haired, gray-eyed girl with a charming smile gradually dissipated, and the surroundings began to fluctuate violently. Violet, who had already had relevant experience, understood that this was a sign of the illusion about to end.
“Provocation, or just bluffing...?”
The priestess glanced one last time at where the other had disappeared, and for some reason, a hint of keen interest gradually curved her lips.
Interesting, she didn’t mind this confidence at all.
