Chapter 376: Do Not Believe in Demons (Part 2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Nailisi, Master might not be happy with what you have done to Jola.” The winged skeleton’s voice appeared in Nailisi’s mind.

Nailisi was surprised. How can winged skeleton communicate with my soul directly? Even though my soul has evolved into something stronger, the winged skeleton is a grade-7 spirit of the dead. This! This! This!

“What are you afraid of? We are both Master’s summoned creatures. I have been able to communicate with you ever since I surmounted grade-6.” The winged skeleton was not as respectful and cautious as before. It obviously showed no fear towards Nailisi.

Nailisi replied angrily, “Mind your own business and drive your ship!”

Jola saw Nailisi go quiet so he slipped away. Nailisi continued communicating with the winged skeleton.

“Master has his own plans for Jola. Perhaps you didn’t do anything wrong this time, but when you do something wrong next time, I will tell Master,” the winged skeleton laughed coldly.

Nailisi was getting anxious and impatient. An ominous look shot from her eyes when she said, “Would you believe me if I said I would eat your soul?”

“No, my soul is bonded with Master. If Master doesn’t die, I’ll have the chance of being reborn.” The winged skeleton added, “Unless you ate Master too. Then, I would die.”

“Do you think I wouldn’t dare?”

“If you dare, go ahead and do so. Master is just upstairs with Sika.”

Nailisi was burning in rage. She picked up the plate and bit it. Nailisi chewed up the porcelain plate that was tougher than metal and swallowed it.

“Throwing a tantrum won’t help. Anyway, I roughly know everything that you want to do.” The voice of winged skeleton could not be silenced.

Nailisi grit through her teeth, “So what do you want?”

“That’s a good question. I am always in the ship and I cannot leave, so if there’s any opportunities for benefits in the future, count me in.”

“The greatest advantage is the ship. Don’t feel discontented. Master is already nice enough to you.”

“Of course I know that, but Master has a lot of things to do and cannot take care of me everyday. I am a spirit of the dead and Master is an elemental mage. It will be difficult for me to advance again. Relying on this green spirit, I can slowly evolve. But unfortunately, it won’t be much of help for Master.”

“What do you mean?”

“I am now a grade-7 spirit of the dead. The green spirit can provide me with power, but too slowly. I’ll need at least another three to five hundred years until I can advance to grade-8. As for grade-9, god knows how long it will take me. If I left this ship, I couldn’t even fight against you. So, I hope you can help me.”

“What if I don’t?”

“Then I’ll tell Jola that he has been tricked.”

Nailisi suddenly laughed and said, “Soldier, that’s not any leverage against me. Anyway, I’ll try not to get on this ship in the future. What can you…”

“Even if you don’t get on the ship, Master will get on. This ship is the most powerful weapon that Master has. Don’t you understand Master yet? If he can’t fight someone, running away is the best choice. What other ships would be more suitable than this one for running away?”

“Hmph! I am not asking you what you want me to do. I’ll ask this first. What benefit do I get for doing the things that you want me to do for you?” Nailisi was not afraid that the winged skeleton would play tricks on her, as neither her nor the winged skeleton could kill the other. This ship was the winged skeleton’s territory, but Nailisi had nothing to be afraid of. She wouldn’t work for the winged skeleton unconditionally.

“Benefit? I think the reason you tricked Jola was to get his power and get him to work for you obediently. You are worried that you will become useless when Master surrounds himself with more powerful individuals. Am I right?”

“Hmph.”

“Nailisi, your lineage seems to be great.”

“Of course!” Nailiis replied proudly. Although she was just an imp, her bloodline was rare in the demon dimension. When she was fully grown, even supreme demons would have trouble killing her.

“If I were to give you the coordinates of the demon dimension, could you summon spirits?”

“You! What did you say?” Nailisi was shocked, The coordinates of the demon dimension? She had left the Myers Goddess’ Temple for a few years, trailing behind Saleen while constantly looking for related information. However, she could not even find anything about the coordinates of the demon dimension in Raphael’s magic tower.

Saleen had obtained a demon suit, but everything related to the coordinates on the suit had disappeared.

Nailisi remained silent for a while before she said, “Soldier, Master is an elemental mage but doesn’t really like summoning spells. The two of us may be his last summoned creatures. Master may be nice to us, but he doesn’t have much of an idea on how to help us increase our power. Let me be frank with you. If there are coordinates for the demon dimension, give me a few years’ time and I would be able to summon demons and these demons would listen to me. Then, I would be able to form a demon army.”

“You told me all this. Aren’t you afraid that I would demand more?”

“I can’t hide it from you anyway.” Nailisi could not be bothered.

“I think if I were to tell you the coordinates now, you would go back on your words. I have realized that unless I have Master’s contract magic, you won’t be afraid of breaking the contract.”

Nailisi’s trick had been discovered, but she did not fret. She said, “What do you want me to do for the coordinates?”

“Do you remember the warship from the Second Dynasty?”

“Mm.”

“I want everything that is left on the ship.”

“Okay, I’ll go and salvage them for you, but why didn’t you go on your own?”

“It’s not very safe for me to leave this ship now. There’s something that I’m afraid of on that ship. And…”

“What else do you want?” Nailisi pretended to be angry, but she had no reason to be. It would be worth it even if she needed to work as the winged skeleton’s coolie for ten years. The coordinates of the demon dimension! Her soul was fixed in the dimension of Myers Mainland, so she would not be restricted by grade when she summoned, and in truth, she could summon demons of a higher grade than herself. Those demons who were restrained by the rules of the dimension could only be enslaved by her.

“I want your dragonshard!”

“No way!” Nailisi vehemently refused.

“Then I won’t give you the coordinates.” The winged skeleton looked as though he could not be bothered. He knew how precious the coordinates of the demon dimension were. It might have been troublesome for human mages since there was a huge difference between a demon’s soul and any other creature, but Nailisi was not afraid of such things. With the coordinates, she would obtain powerful strength.

Tears fell from Nailisi’s eyes as she said, “Soldier, the dragonshard is temporarily with me. Sooner or later, I’ll have to return it to Master. Why don’t I cut some pieces for you?”

“Do you think Master would care about that? I want the core, Nailisi. The one thing that I learned from Master is to never trust a demon. So, stop crying and give me what I want, and I shall give you the coordinates.”

“Damn you, spirit of the dead. If you dare leave this ship, I will tear you into pieces!”

Nailisi did not intend to hide the fact that she had another piece of dragonshard from Saleen, but she felt bitter about giving it to the winged skeleton. She knew that Saleen would not punish her for it, but now that the winged skeleton wanted the dragonshard, Nailisi felt as though there was a knife cutting off her flesh.

“Nailisi, think about it. If you were to have a hundred demons as servants, Master would depend heavily on you. What can the dragonshard do? If you could deceive a supreme demon, would it be difficult to kill a dragon?”

“Soldier, if you know that I am a demon, don’t try to trick me. Deceiving a supreme demon? Unless…” Nailisi did not continue. It was not impossible to deceive a supreme demon into coming to this dimension to be a slave, but she had to at least complete her evolutions and possess the eight terrifying powers first.

By then, she would be confident enough to kill the dragon herself, and there would be no need to deceive the supreme demon.

“So, you agree?” The winged skeleton’s voice was echoing in Nailisi’s mind.

“Of course. It’s just a dragonshard.”

“Then, take out the dragonshard and leave it on the table. I want the complete one.”

Nailisi had wanted to cut the dragonshard as small as possible and only give the winged skeleton the core, but it wanted the complete item and that made her depressed. She took out the enormous dragonshard and left it on the table. The dragonshard rotated on the table and then disappeared.

“Impressive. In this ship, how strong are you?” Nailisi looked towards where the dragonshard had disappeared and was shocked. Without a magic array, magic patterns, or runes, the dragonshard had been transferred into the winged skeleton’s hands.

“Very strong. With the dragonshard, I can continue to transform this ship so that it won’t become a burden to Master.” The winged skeleton smiled proudly.

“How about the coordinates?”

“Retrieve all the items in the warship of the Second Dynasty first. Then, I will pass you the coordinates.”

“Don’t go back on your word.”

“Why would I? I need your demon army to work for me.”

“When did I promise you that?”

“You didn’t, but you will help me. If not, I will disturb you everyday once I advance to grade-9.”

“Bastard!” Nailisi was burning in rage. Even if the winged skeleton were to advance to grade-9, he still could not kill Nailisi due to Saleen. However, he had the ability to communicate with other souls. As he said, he could talk in Nailisi’s mind and she had no way of resisting.

“Think about the benefits you could get. You are Master’s summoned creature. How could I harm you?” The winged skeleton comforted Nailisi when it saw her burning in rage.

“Give me the coordinates!”

“No way, I need the warship of the Second Dynasty!”

“What do you want it for?”

“When you get your coordinates, I will tell you.” The winged skeleton kept his lips sealed. Nailisi knew that it would be impossible to get the coordinates then.

While Nailisi and winged skeleton were fighting, Saleen and Sika had finished with their lovemaking. Sika was lying on Saleen’s chest when she asked, “Why were you looking for me?”

“It was about Irene. I am worried that you will be cheated. And… you are the leader of the Caucasians from now on, and that is a dangerous position. Anyone who wants to control the Caucasians will target you. The arm ring I gave you won’t be enough, so I want to make you another set of special armor.”

“Special armor? Is it so special that you have to talk to me about it?”

“No, I have achieved divinity from the Myers Goddess and the armor is driven by divinity, I’m afraid that you…”

Sika smiled and touched Saleen’s face. “Caucasians respect the Myers Goddess. I am not against receiving her divinity.”

“But the Myers Goddess has passed. If you want the divinity to take effect, we have to sign a contract,” Saleen said as he raised his left hand to hold Sika’s hand. He continued, “In my left hand, there is power left by the Myers Goddess from the Tree of Life. I am worried that the power might be eccentric, but our enemy is too strong. The one who stays alive will be in first place. Are you willing to take the risk?”
