Demon King Priest

Chapter 172: The People Who Came to the Continent



"Mhm! Let's go together. Your parents must be worried about you." Ulysses nodded and took Cherie's hand, starting to walk slowly towards the Taji City gate in the distance. Arcelia and Helen silently followed behind him.

"Ah! It's been a long time since the last time I came to the continent! It's quite interesting. After arriving in the city called Taji, what do we need to do?" Mina carrying an anchor was a few kilometers away from Ulysses. She said to Aya who was floating beside her with great interest.

"Oh this? You don't need to do anything at the moment. According to my inference, master would spend some time practicing light magic. Until master has any further plans, you can move freely." Aya tilted her head, thought carefully for a while, and then answered Mina.

"Ah! It's really boring, isn't he a demon king? Why doesn't he have any ambitions? Can't you, the guardian of the Book of the Demon King, think of something! For example, incite him to do bad things." Mina frowned and yelled in dissatisfaction.

"Master has the freedom to choose his own path. As a familiar spirit, I cannot directly demand him to do anything." Aya shook her head and denied Mina's bad proposal.

"Then you just let him do nothing like this, and finally become a boring priest? Then what is the point of becoming his apostle, isn't it meaningless!" Mina was a little angry.

"Of course not. No matter what, I definitely don't want master to become the kind of pure-hearted priest. Although I can't directly demand him to do anything, I can indirectly influence master through some things and make him dispel the plan to become a priest forever!" Aya said without hesitation.

"Oh! That's interesting! What are the specifics? You can reveal it to me!" Mina asked curiously.

"Mhm! Come here, my initial plan is..." Aya waved her hand, called Mina to her side, put her mouth to her ear, and began to whisper her plan to her.

"Evil! So evil! This plan is so..." After listening to Aya's plan, the face of the fearless former pirate Mina turned pale, as if she had heard the most terrifying things in the world.

"I am evil! In my eyes, there is only master. I don't need to care about other people. Besides, those girls have a good impression of master! Even if the plan is successful, they wouldn't mind it. Maybe they would thank me for that!" Aya said disapprovingly.

‘Although that is true, I really can't see what is so good about that demon king who wants to be a priest. But those girls seem to like him very much. Seriously, what is so good about such a weak man! Forget it, that has nothing to do with me anyway! Let me check out Taji City first!' After looking at Aya next to him, Mina temporarily put Ulysses's affairs aside, and began to plan what to do after entering the city.

‘Huh! Little pirate, do you think you can escape it? You are also a part of the plan! At that time, you will know how great I am.' Seeing Mina's unconcerned face, Aya secretly smiled.

"By the way, what should we do when we get to Taji City! Where do we live? Is it the demon king's house?" Mina who had already made plans suddenly thought of a vital matter and turned to ask Aya.

"Ah! This! I have already discussed it with master, because master's current home is really small, so it is impossible for everyone to live in. Arcelia, me, and you will live in the hotel. Helen and Lulu will follow master, In terms of Cherie, master will take her home later. Tomorrow, I will buy a few houses near mater for us to live in." Aya told Mina her arrangements.

"I see! In that case, let's find a hotel first! Then I want to have a good drink tonight!" After knowing the accommodation arrangements, Mina was relieved and began to hum a little tune happily.

‘Eeep, it turns out that the little pirate has the same hobby as that Rasputin! This can be used as a major breakthrough point. Since they have such weaknesses, I can carry out drunk take-down operations. But I still have to wait for the little pirate to have a higher degree of affection towards master, otherwise master will definitely get angry. I have to wait for the perfect moment!' After hearing Mina's words, an evil light flashed in Aya's purple eyes, and a perfect plan emerged in her mind...

The sun had moved to the very end of the horizon, and the afterglow of the setting sun spared no effort to illuminate the earth. Soon, it would get dark. But the setting sun seemed to resist the fall of night, desperately spreading the afterglow on the vast ground, and also on Ulysses and his group walking in the wilderness. From time to time, a slightly cool wind blew around everyone, announcing that the night was coming.

‘Very soft, but trembling constantly, is she afraid? Or is she feeling cold?' Ulysses holding Cherie's tender little hand noticed her abnormality. After hesitating for a while, he still spoke:

"Cherie, are you cold? Or, are you scared?"

"Mhm, Big Brother, it is neither. Cherie is just very nervous. Cherie doesn't know what to say to Mom and Dad. They must be very angry because I was away for so long." Cherie who walked beside Ulysses lowered her head and said hesitantly .

"There won't be anything like that. If you can come back, your parents will be extremely happy." Realizing that Cherie was indeed a little scared, Ulysses smiled and comforted her.

"But..." Cherie seemed to want to say something, but at this moment Ulysses gently covered her mouth, then hugged her into his arms, and said softly:

"It's okay. Trust me, your parents absolutely won't blame you."

"Mhm! Thank you, Big Brother! Cherie believes in you, as long as you are here, Cherie is not afraid of anything!" When Ulysses pulled her over, Cherie was slightly taken aback, but soon quieted down. After saying this softly, she leaned her body into Ulysses's arms.

"Cherie?" Cherie didn't respond after Ulysses called her a few times. It turned out that she had fallen asleep unknowingly.

"Leave it to me. After such a long walk, it is too tiring for a little girl like her." Arcelia, who was behind Ulysses, walked over and hugged Cherie who was asleep carefully.

Indeed, it was a bit exhausting for Cherie to walk such a long way. Probably she, who came from a noble family, had never walked such a long way before. Ulysses looked at Cherie who had fallen asleep, feeling a little guilty. But they couldn't find any means of transportation where they landed, so he also had no choice. In addition, Cherie said that she wanted to exercise her strength and didn't want to just be held by him, so although he would cast some restorative light magic on her whenever she was tired, he still didn't expect that she would fall asleep.

‘Huh? Strange! Helen walked the same distance as Cherie, but why doesn't she show any signs of fatigue!' After looking at Cherie who fell asleep because of lack of energy, Ulysses suddenly thought of something incredible.

"Daddy, what's the matter?" Helen, who was watched by Ulysses, felt her face feel a little hot, and said unconsciously.

"It's nothing, Helen, your physical strength is really good!" Ulysses said embarrassedly.

"Mhm! I'm Daddy's daughter! I have no problem with my physical strength!" Helen, who was praised by Ulysses, smiled happily and jumped vigorously, seeming to prove her strength.

"Okay, Ulysses. It's time to go! It's already dark!" Arcelia on the side said lightly, and took the lead to walk towards the already very close Taji City gate.

Ulysses, who heard Arcelia's words, temporarily put aside the question about Helen. To him, the most important thing now was to enter the city. The things about Helen, he would naturally have the opportunity to ask in the future...

At this time, on a beach tens of kilometers away from Taji City, a small boat about six or seven meters long was about to approach the shore. Unlike ordinary boats, this boat was actually made of living plants. The main body of the boat was a strange green plant. The center of the plant was a beautiful green flower. With the flower as the center, countless green branches made up the boat. Some green branches stretched out from the boat, paddling the water hard, pushing the boat forward.

Driven by the green branches, the boat quickly came to the shore. Three figures walked down from the boat one by one. Two of them were young girls with the same hair color and eyes, and the other was a black giant with a height of three meters. The giant held an uneven stone sword in his hand and looked around vigilantly, as if he was guarding the two girls. They were Iphia, Quna, and Hercules who set off from Darkwing Gate not long ago.

"Ah! We have finally arrived on the continent! Elder Sister! Where shall we go first?" Iphia looked around for a moment, and she who had never been to the continent was curious about everything.

"Wait a minute! I'll look at the map first!" Quna took out a map that looked 70% to 80% new from her arms and began to check it carefully.

"Elder Sister! Where did this come from? We the Seven Nights couldn't come to the continent, right?" Looking at the map in Quna's hand, Iphia showed a puzzled look.

"This was found by Elder Sister Meiya from a wrecked ship. It was a map from three years ago, and there should be nothing wrong with it. Let me find where we should go now, and you can put the boat away!" Quna answered casually. After speaking, she focused all her attention on the map in her hands.

"Got it!" Iphia walked to the side of the boat and said:

"In the name of Seven Nights! Restore! Morph Tree!" As soon as Iphia's words fell, the boat that was six or seven meters long began to shrink quickly. Countless branches and leaves withered quickly as if all the water had been drained, and finally even the flower in the middle also withered and transformed into a small seed.

"Elder Sister! It's done!" After putting away the seed, Iphia walked back to Quna's side.

"Mhm, judging from the map. The nearest city to us should be a port city called Taji. Let's go there and have a look. We just need to travel along this coastline. Let's go!" After carefully checking the map for a while, Quna made a decision.

"Okay! Hercules, let's go! Target, the port city-Taji City!" Iphia excitedly jumped onto the giant's body and began to order loudly! At about the same time as her, Quna also jumped onto the giant. However, given the giant's huge physique, there was no problem with a few more petite girls like them.

"Roar!" After Iphia and Quna both jumped on him, a light flashed in Hercules' muddy eyes and he began to rush forward in large strides...

"It's really interesting! Those people are the Sixth Night Quna, the Seventh Night, Iphia, and her guardian Hercules! I didn't expect that the people the Seven Nights sent first were them! Anyway, there is no task now, so let me follow them first. Maybe I can encounter something very interesting! What do you think, Little Black?" In the high sky, a black shadow said lazily to the huge magic beast underneath.

"Is this really your plan, Master? You actually just want to use them to pass time, right?" The most unbelievable thing was that the magic beast under the shadow actually spoke. This was a special ability that could only be possessed by an eighth level or even higher magic beast!

"Hahaha! You got me! I am really bored! Last time the fight between Meiya from Seven Nights and that crazy experimental girl from our side ended too soon. I haven't had enough fun." Speaking of the last time, the shadow seemed very dissatisfied.

"Forget it, there is no need to mention the things that have passed. I hope they can bring me some surprises this time. Little Black, let's go!" After a grumbling, the black shadow ordered the magic beast below him.

"I know. It's not like they will be able to run away." After lazily replying, the talking magic beast began to follow Iphia and Quna leisurely…

….

"Strange! Why do I feel that I have walked here before?" In the woods, Laxia, carrying the Dragon King Buster Sword, stared at the mark she made and fell into a daze. This was the sixth time she saw the mark she left today.

‘Could it be, maybe, I'm lost again? ?' After scratching her head, Laxia asked herself.
