Chapter 50 - Distressed Suo Fei

Bonuus chapter as thanks to Anna H‘s kofis~

The six people revealed their names. The other four already knew each other beforehand thus they revealed their real names. However, they didn’t disclose their ident.i.ties.

Samael didn’t mention the Magic Array of Time from before. The others also didn’t mention it. Nevertheless, they seemed to not be affected in the slightest. Their eyes were bright, bodies br.i.m.m.i.n.g with strength.

Samael briefly described what he and Suo Fei had seen inside the pa.s.sage, causing everyone to be lost in thought.

Evidently, it was a door. They didn’t know where it led to, but at least there’s an exit. However, they were unable to ascertain how exactly they could open the door.

What’s the special meaning of the flame emblem?

Lancelot spoke after pondering for a moment, “Could it be that it needs fire magic?”

His speculation was reasonable, but unfortunately, no one out of the six people and one beast knew fire magic.

Abel cast a sidelong glance at him and spoke in an unpleasant tone: “Suo Fei’s a demon yet he was able to light up the flame emblem. Are you saying that a demon knows fire magic? If us Demons had even a little bit of magic affinity, we wouldn’t have let your flock of chicken wings be so arrogant!”

Chicken wings… Suo Fei tried hard not to laugh.

Those two words were clearly Lancelot’s sore spot. He didn’t bother with words and swiftly raised his magic staff. A light-type spell descended from above and directly hit Abel’s head. Abel was an S-tier a.s.sa.s.sin so he was proficient in physical attacks and agility. However, he didn’t expect Lancelot to lose his temper so easily thus wasn’t able to dodge him in time.

After the light had dissipated, Abel’s s.h.i.+ny and das.h.i.+ng short jet-black hair time had been scorched into a ball of mess.

Lancelot said coldly, “Someone who has a chicken nest on his head shouldn’t talk so much!”

Suo Fei: …Don’t make this Laozi laugh!

Abel became mad in an instant. He whizzed towards Lancelot, his mouth snarling with curses, “Laozi will stab you to death, you birdman!

Seeing that they were about to start fighting once again, Harris hurried forward and restrained Abel with his thin and delicate arms. To be honest, apart from Samael, only this Berserker could hold back Abel.

Abel didn’t have the power to stop him. He tried to struggle free as his mouth rambled on, “Harris, are you a Beastkin or a birdman? If you’re a Beastkin, then let go of me. I must fight him to the death today.

Harris was well aware that when dealing with someone bristling with anger, one had to softly pet their fur. He heard Manzy reasoning out with Lancelot without offending either of the two. He didn’t praise him but merely implored him to calm down.

He, on the other hand, used his might to restrain Abel so that he couldn’t move. Naturally, he also calmed down after some time.

This was the difference between the King of Beastkins and a prince.

Manzy was the only one among them who knew magic. Although he was always cold-faced, he had the highest chance of resolving their dispute.

He cast a Cleanse spell, successfully returning our king’s chicken nest hair back to its charming and elegant appearance.

They finally calmed down after much tossing about.

Suo Fei watched with a blazing headache when he thought of teaming up with this group of people who would definitely be honoured to betray their teammates.

In order to not repeat the earlier incident, Samael gave them no chance to speak and immediately spoke, “There are six other channels apart from the one we’ve been in. We should check them one by one to see if there’s any connection to one another.

“Let’s not split up,” Harris said.

Samael a.s.sented, “Alright.”

The six people and one beast began exploring the place.

They first went inside the pa.s.sage that was initially behind Samael, which was also pitch-dark. Manzy was the one to cast an illuminating spell this time. The group reached the end of the pa.s.sage not long after. There was also a door that was exactly the same as the previous pa.s.sage, except that the emblem had changed.

Manzy released an intense light on the emblem and it became more visible.

It was a disc that had lines intersecting in the middle. Harris looked at it for a while before expressing, “What is this? It’s so abstract.”

The others didn’t know how to describe what they were seeing, hence they remained silent.

The irritable Abel grunted and said, “Isn’t it just a wheel?”

Uh… After he said that, they looked at the emblem again and felt that he could be right. The previous one was a fire symbol while this one was a wheel. Could there be a connection between these trivialities?

Furthermore, Lancelot previously surmised that the flame was related to fire-type magic. According to this idea, this emblem should also be related to a certain magic type. However, what magic type could the wheel represent? It just doesn’t make sense.

He couldn’t help but suspect that Abel’s casual remark was in hopes of proving Lancelot wrong.

Abel felt magnanimous at the moment so he shrugged indifferently before saying, “This is definitely not related to some kind of magic type. It doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not. We’ve only been to two pa.s.sages. There’s still five more. Let’s go have a look at each of them to find out what actually is going on.”

This was indeed the case. Just when everyone was about to leave, Samael suddenly said, “Wait a moment.” Then he turned to look at Suo Fei and told him, “Try placing your hand on it.”

Suo Fei understood his intentions. He placed his hands on top of it. The emblem lit up briefly and then darkened, just like what had happened when Samael placed his hands on top of the previous emblem. It was a rejection.

Samael placed his hand right after Suo Fei took away his. The emblem lit up and remained that way.

The base colour of the emblem had become pure white whereas the lines were pure black. With this appearance, it really looked like a wheel.

Abel “tch”ed and turned his head away, acting as if it would be their loss if they didn’t believe him.

They could not fathom the connection between the flames and the wheel. Thus, they could only proceed to the next pa.s.sage.

Before leaving, Samael asked each of them to place their hand on the emblem. The ‘wheel’ emblem only remained lit up for Samael. For the others, it only flashed briefly. There were no other changes.

At least two conclusions could be drawn from these attempts. The flame emblem belonged to Suo Fei whereas the wheel emblem belonged to Samael. Could it be that the remaining five emblems belonged to the five people present?

Thought without action is useless. They could only determine the truth by trying it one by one.

The next one was Lancelot’s pa.s.sage. This time, everyone directly went straight to the door at the end of the pa.s.sage. After casting the illuminating spell, Lancelot placed his hand on the emblem and a glimmering snowflake was revealed.

Abel coldly “hmph”ed with his arms crossed. Then he jeered, “I thought it would be chicken wings.”

Lancelot was mad! However, when he saw Abel’s face that was asking for a beating, he quelled his anger. Then, he merely narrowed his eyes at him before turning around to leave.

The fourth pa.s.sage was Abel’s. They walked to the end of the pa.s.sage and was stunned. There was actually no emblem this time. The door was completely blank.

What’s the meaning of this? There were flames, a wheel and a snowflake, yet there’s nothing in the fourth one? The regular pattern had been broken.

Or is there something unique about this door? Everyone carefully observed the door but couldn’t find any difference.

While everyone was at a loss, Suo Fei suddenly had an idea. He touched the door at the same location of the previous emblems but felt nothing. He touched it again and there still wasn’t any response.

Hmm, was I mistaken?

He was just about to take away his hand when Samael suddenly held it and slightly moved it to the left. Then, a faint light flashed briefly.

Sure enough.

There’s an emblem. It’s just that it’s invisible!

Abel placed his hand on the earlier position and a round disc appeared. After that, a cloud of smoke rose from the bright disc.

So, Abel’s emblem is smoke?

At this moment, Suo Fei really wanted to lash out curses. What the f**k is this? Flames, wheel, snowflake, and now smoke?!

Is there any connection between them?

It seemed that they could only find out after going through the last three doors.

The next they went to was Harris’ pa.s.sage. The emblem this time was very eye-catching. It was a snake with its tongue out.

When Suo Fei saw it, he mused in his mind that it matched Harris’ black-bellied character extremely well.

After that, they went to Manzy’s pa.s.sage. The emblem had an elliptical shape. Everyone couldn’t determine what it was despite looking at it for a long time. The Emperor of Truth Abel made a comeback once again, “It’s a wok.”

Everyone: …

Oh, it’s as ordinary as the wheel.

But when he said that, they thought that it really looked like a wok.

There was only the last pa.s.sage left, the pa.s.sage of the only non-humanoid fellow in this group, the little cub.

The illuminating spell was cast and Suo Fei expectantly looked at the last pa.s.sage’s emblem but was nothing controversial, just a tiny mouse.

The little cub pressed his paw on the emblem but it didn’t light up.

The little cub was in disbelief. He used his front paw instead but it also didn’t light up. What is going on?

Little cub: This d.a.m.ned emblem is actually looking down on this divine beast.

Hence, it turned around and, under the gaze of everyone, it stomped the ground, struck a graceful pose and kicked the emblem.

Suo Fei: I don’t know this thing. I definitely don’t.

Unfortunately, the emblem refused to cooperate and remained unresponsive despite the little cub’s gracefulness.

As the King of Beastkins, Harris considered himself to be extremely knowledgeable in this area so he spoke up, “Actually, why are you in your beast form? Try transforming into your human form.”

Little cub: “Laozi isn’t human. Transform into my human form, your a**!”

Harris was slightly surprised, “You have never transformed into your human form?”

“I just said that Laozi is not human!”

Harris smiled faintly. His smile looked as pure as a white lotus, but Suo Fei felt that this brat didn’t have good intentions. Harris approached the little cub and gently said, “Don’t be afraid. It wouldn’t hurt.”

The little cub was startled, “What are you up to?!”

Harris petted its head and held it in place. Then, facing its nose, he…

Shocked Suo Fei: Are they acting out a b.e.s.t.i.a.lity scene?!

He… bit it down.

The little cub screamed and a layer of white mist rose. When the white mist had disappeared, Suo Fei’s jaw almost hit the floor when he saw it clearly.

F**k, who’s that?!

A blond, golden-eyed, fair-skinned, slim youth appeared naked in front of him. That’s right, naked, in the most literal sense of the word. He wore not even a single piece of clothing!

If that was only the case, Suo Fei wouldn’t have been so astounded. The most important thing was that on top of his golden locks were two fluffy ears and behind him was a long, raised tail.

Suo Fei’s t.i.tanium alloy dog ​​eyes had been blinded several times. I’m quickly running out of money to buy for a replacement, alright!

The youth’s eyes were round, his face naive and innocent. Harris’ long and narrow eyes were sparkling, definitely harbouring evil intentions. He stepped forward, held the youth’s right hand and pressed it onto the emblem. The emblem’s little mouse instantly lit up.

Then, under everyone’s eyes, Harris ambiguously leaned towards the youth’s small nose and bit it down with more force.

With a yell, a layer of white mist rose once again and the divine beast returned to its domineering appearance.

Suo Fei took a long time to recover from his daze. This is a magical world, a world that has nine great races. T-transforming and t-the likes is n-not a big deal… Right?

No! It’s strange! Even if they could transform, why does it have to be through biting the nose? Doesn’t it hurt? What kind of setting is this! Game developers, what the h.e.l.l was going on in your heads?!

When the little cub came to its senses, it yelled at Harris, “Y-you actually bit me! You’re a beast!”

Suo Fei: Kid, is that the point?

The little cub was furious. It stretched its paw out as it pounced onto Harris. Harris had a pet.i.te figure. He was the epitome of a weak and delicate shou. Wouldn’t it be miserable for him to be pounced on by the little cub?

Unfortunately, Harris dotingly and gently received the little cub in his embrace. He used his frail arms to securely carry the little cub. Then, he petted its head as he coaxed, “Good boy.”

Little cub: “Good boy, your—”

Harris took a piece of roasted meat from out of nowhere, like magic.

Little cub: “Awoo..”

Suo Fei: F**k… Blinding my fragile eyes.

The author has something to say: I haven’t written any s.m.u.t as of late. It’s a shame but look forward to my next chapter!
