Chapter 615: Good luck or bad luck?
Chapter 615: Good luck or bad luck?
“Nemo, what have you gotten yourself into?” asked Idan through a mental link, looking at the five Valkyries.
They weren’t just Valkyries, but Diamond-ranked Valkyries.
The one in the center was undoubtedly the Fire Valkyrie. And the other four looked remarkably like Arabel when she transformed into the Ice Valkyrie, so there could be no mistake. The other four were also Diamond-ranked Ice Valkyries.
This was only their second visit to Junonia, but it had already brought such a big surprise.
Many Awakened Ones have visited Junonia many times over the years, but they only knew about the Valkyries from legends, and some did not even know about their existence — these creatures were so secretive. And Idan and Arabel were so lucky or, conversely, not so lucky that they encountered five Diamond-ranked Valkyries.
Nemo didn’t know what to say to his younger comrades.
He felt a little guilty for dragging them into his problem, but he had no other choice. Apart from the two of them, he had no other connections or acquaintances to whom he could turn for help. Everyone he knew was imprisoned in Limbo, and only Idan and Arabel could come to his aid.
From the very beginning, Nemo had doubts about the rank of his juniors. However, everything changed when he remembered the words of his Master and others after his last visit to Limbo. They told him how much the couple had progressed and, perhaps, had already become stronger than himself.
This was a crucial factor in his decision to turn to them for help.
Arabel had mixed feelings looking at the five Valkyries. During the time she spent with Sierra, Esma, and Lucindai, she became imbued with their care and warmth, which they showed her as a younger sister. She valued this relationship very much, and now it made it difficult for her to perceive the five Valkyries as enemies.
Her older sisters had repeatedly warned her to be careful in Junonia and not reveal her existence. They explained that the Valkyries in Junonia were unlikely to be friendly to her, unlike them.
Especially if they find out that she has the bloodline of three different Valkyries, among which there is one that does not exist in Junonia — the bloodline of the Mad Valkyrie.
“Belle, don’t reveal your bloodline under any circumstances,” Idan warned, speaking to Arabel through a mental link.
Arabel’s long purple hair, which appeared in Juno in the image of the Duchess of Darkness Elsa, acquired a black hue, and black inscriptions appeared on her body. To hide the fluctuations of her Valkyrie bloodline, Arabel awakened the symbiotic creature of darkness that had been dormant inside her all this time.
The Valkyries hovering above them frowned at the two strangers. They were especially alarmed by the way they looked at them. There was no ordinary awe and fear in their eyes, which were usually experienced by beings of the Lower Realm.
Moreover, all five Valkyries felt that these two were just pitiful Golden-ranked creatures.
They also noticed how the woman’s hair changed from purple to black, and mysterious and slightly creepy dark inscriptions appeared on her body.
“Interesting,” said the Fire Valkyrie.
“Belle, be ready to escape in case of danger, taking Nemo and this girl with you,” — Idan said.
“And what are you going to do?” asked Arabel, unable to calmly accept his offer.
“I’ll stay and try to buy you some time so that you can leave and hide in the Kingdom.” Idan, understanding her doubts, added, “Don’t worry, I’m not going to sacrifice myself and leave you alone. Especially considering that there are only eleven days left before you become my wife.”
“But…” Arabel was still doubtful.
“Is Bera with you?” — Idan asked, and Arabel immediately understood what he was hoping for.
Putting aside her doubts, she concentrated on escaping from here at the first opportunity, taking Nemo and this strange girl with her.
“Who are you?” The Fire Valkyrie asked.
“We are this young man’s companions,” Idan replied, pointing at Nemo. Then he looked at the Valkyries and asked: “What are the five beautiful members of the Valkyrie race doing here?”
Idan’s flattery didn’t have the expected effect. On the contrary, a slight contempt for him appeared on the beauties’ faces.
Arabel didn’t like that, of course.
“So you’re this man’s companions, right?” the fire Valkyrie asked. Then, looking at the others, she ordered, “Capture everyone.”
No sooner had the dialogue begun than the pressure of Diamond-ranked creatures descended on Idan and Arabel.
Idan fell to his knees in surprise, but Arabel was able to resist and even resist, which, of course, greatly surprised the Valkyries.
After she formed her First Constellation, her Soul Force increased significantly, which helped her withstand the pressure of the Soul Force of Diamond-ranked creatures.
Arabel was very surprised and delighted, because now she did not need to use her Valkyrie bloodline to resist this pressure.
Idan gritted his teeth and made an instant decision. His black hair in the image of Ignis turned red, and sparks of flame danced around him. The temperature rose sharply, and the pressure of the Valkyries’ Soul Force weakened.
His transformation attracted the attention of all the Valkyries. Arabel, noticing this, took advantage of the moment. Grabbing Nemo and the girl, she activated the unique ability “Ghost Stats”, increasing her “Dexterity” stat, and rushed away, leaving Idan behind.
Thanks to Idan’s average stats, her “Dexterity” stat exceeded 600 and already matched that of a Diamond-ranked creature.
“Follow her,” said the Fiery Valkyrie, without taking her eyes off Idan, noticing Arabel’s attempts to escape.
All four of the Ice Valkyries set off in pursuit of Arabel. Despite the latter’s high speed, they quickly overtook her, using their advantage in flight.
“Heh,” — Idan grinned.
“Not so fast,” he said, and suddenly disappeared from his seat, much to the surprise of the Fire Valkyrie, who was watching him intently.
Soon, she saw him far away from where he was standing, with two massive wings that shimmered with golden flames. His appearance has changed dramatically.
His red hair, like her wings, was ablaze with golden flames, and his entire body seemed to be made of flames. In his hands, he held a red blade that began to crumble.
Beneath him, one of the Ice Valkyries, which came closest to Arabel, fell to the ground with screams and severed two wings.
The other Valkyries stopped chasing Arabel, and all their attention turned to Idan.
“Spirit Form!” Everyone immediately recognized Idan’s new appearance, and their gaze became slightly excited and serious.
