Chapter 475: About Aquatic Race
Sylvia's angry shout instantly gained everyone's attention. Gio also stopped his activities and turned to the angry girl.
"Hmm?" Gio muttered as he didn't understand why his na was called in such an annoyed tone.
"Grr… You dare to give that innocent look after what you did to ?" Sylvia gritted her teeth.
"..." Gio just looked the red-eyed girl up and down. He nodded because the girl in front of him was in good condition. He made himself busy again to craft an earth dragon statue, naly his majestic self.
"You, you just ignored !?" Sylvia beca so annoyed. For so many reasons, she began to hate that huge dragon-like man.
Not only was she injured until she fainted, but she also got nothing but indifference from the perpetrator. There was no apology or remorse whatsoever.
Just as Sylvia was about to teach the dragon-like man a lesson, soone grabbed her from behind.
"Sylvi, please don't be so angry with Gio. You can't just bla him completely when the risk of the ga is there. Also, it's your choice not to use any kind of magic. Please calm down a bit, okay?" Elysia held Sylvia's arm and coaxed the angry girl with a gentle approach.
"But, Ely! That he-" Sylvia expressed her grievances like a sulking child. However, a delicate finger suddenly sealed her lips.
"I apologize for what just happened to you, Sylvi. It seems a beach ga with team competition is not a good idea for the current mont. For now, let's build a sandcastle with us." Elysia held the hand of the sulking girl with an apologetic smile.
"Uuu... If you say that, I..." Sylvia beca conflicted because Elysia had spoken.
Unfortunately, she didn't have the chance to think anything else because Elysia pulled her hand to gather with the other girls to build a sandcastle together.
"That's karma for your rude behavior to this morning. I knew it for sure~" Yuuki humd while making a sand tower.
"Huh? Do you hold a grudge against just because of that? I didn't expect you to be such a vengeful fox. Hmph! Childish." Sylvia frowned and snorted.
Nevertheless, she simply put everything aside and went with Elysia to join Ella and Evelyn to build a beautiful, majestic, perfect sandcastle.
Yuuki just rolled her eyes in response. She no longer cared or paid more attention to Sylvia nonetheless.
anwhile, Elena just smiled faintly to see the cheerful girls having their fun together.
She turned to the side to check the north direction. The storm was over, and the sky was clear. Maybe, this afternoon, there would be a fortuitous encounter?
Elena took another sip of her orange juice and watched the sandcastle project.
One wild thought crossed her mind. It was definitely pleasing to the eye if all the beautiful girls were wearing bikinis as planned. It was a sha because it couldn't be realized even though it was so close.
"Huff..." Elena heaved a sigh as she looked at the girls' sumr dresses.
"Nee, Ely, do you know what Sea God is like? Are we going to et the Aquatic Race too?" Evelyn asked curiously.
Elysia patted her chin for a mont as she thought of easy-to-understand words. "Hmm... I can't say for sure because the one who t the Sea God in person last month was the Goddess of Blessings.
But, I heard he is an embodint of the sea itself. For so reason, he split himself into three thousand sentient beings with only half of that number still him."
"Huh?" The girls beca shocked and gaped. They stopped whatever they were doing and gave their full attention to Elysia.
"W-what? Is there sothing wrong? I would feel embarrassed if you looked at like that gaze." Elysia smiled awkwardly.
"Wait, wait a second. Sea God, three thousand of him? But only half are still him? So, one thousand five hundred Sea Gods? That what you an, right, Ely? A God army consisting of himself alone!? Isn't that too overpowered?" Sylvia covered her mouth. She was surprised at what she had in mind.
Elysia waved her hands in front of her face and tried to straighten up the wrong conclusion. "No, that's not what I ant. I'm also confused before, but there's also the impact of splitting into three thousand entities. It's not three thousand Sea Gods, but one Sea God divided into three thousand, including his power.
And again, half of them are already contaminated with curse energy. That is what we need to accomplish to help Sea God from his predicant. For more details, let's ask about this directly to the Goddess of Blessings when her mood improves."
Hearing that, the girls turned to each other and gave their nod of approval. They turned to look at the Goddess of Blessings, but it seed that the divine in question was still in a bad mood.
After that, the discussed topic between building their sandcastle was anything about the Aquatic Race. Neither of them knew much of the details, but that was enough for an exciting discussion.
"Oh! For that, I have one shocking fact about the Aquatic Race. I learned this from my father, and it instantly changed my view of that race. Would you like to hear it?" Sylvia whispered as if what she said had great importance.
"Yes, please!" The girls nodded with curious expressions.
Even the nearby Goddess also showed her interest. Elena put her juice on the table and lifted her sunglasses to look at Sylvia.
"Hehe... Listen carefully, okay? I used to think that the Aquatic Race was the most peaceful, far from the world's strife like the other races. However, I just realized the truth not long ago. Actually--" Sylvia glanced to the right and the left before starting to tell him everything she knew about the Aquatic Race.
Most of what she shared was a negative side that not many other races knew about. It was as if she was an individual who hated or was dissatisfied with that ocean-dwelling race.
"Hmm... So, you're saying that the Aquatic Race is actually the most terrifying one? They don't have conflicts with other races, but instead, they deal with internal chaos? Eating each other? The strong swallow the weak?" Yuuki frowned.
The Aquatic Race had a lot of similarities to the Beastkin Race, but only an underwater version. At least, that was what Yuuki believed. She never expected that they would turn out to be quite brutal and savage.
"Yup, that's what my father said. He once went to Aquatic Ocean and t so of the Aquatic Race's envoys several tis too." Sylvia gave a confirming nod.
"Your father seems to know a lot about the Aquatic Race. He's definitely not an ordinary person. I'm starting to wonder about the real identity of you and your father now, Sylvia. Is it possible that you are..." Ella ca with an assumption while looking at Sylvia with so considerations in mind.
On the other hand, Sylvia was a little worried because she thought that Ella could find out her true identity just from her story just now.
"Ah, that... I just-" Sylvia tried to make an excuse for the defense.
"Could it be that you are the daughter of a hidden expert who traveled between continents? No wonder your father knows a lot of things. Honestly, my grandfather was a traveler too and knew a lot of things. My grandfather will be delighted to exchange ideas and knowledge. with your father, Sylvia." Ella put her hands together with a pleasing smile.
"Eh, ah, yes, hahaha... You're probably right, Ella." Sylvia laughed blandly. She swallowed back what she wanted to say.
The Pope of the Holy Cathedral and the Devil Emperor. It was definitely not a good idea to et up to exchange ideas or knowledge. Instead of a productive conversation, it would be a fight or a bloodbath!
"For that... Let's not speculate just yet. We'd better ask the Goddesses about this to make things clear. I don't an anything, but Sylvi might have missed a few points." Elysia suggested with a concerned expression.
"Um, that's a good idea. That way, we can know more facts about the Aquatic Race." Evelyn nodded in agreent to fully support her best friend's proposal. The other girls also gave their approval.
'Excuse , Nell, are you all right? Can you please enlighten us? Rhea, can you?' Elysia sent telepathy while looking at Nell and Rhea. Sylvia's statent was critical enough to be explained in more detail imdiately to avoid any misinformation.
'I am in good condition. Thanks for asking, Ely. All right, I'll help you get the facts straight about the Aquatic Race.' Nell put the toothpick on the plate and flew away toward Elysia and the girls.
'With pleasure. I know a lot about the Aquatic Race too.' Rhea smiled gently and went closer to Elysia.
Nell and Rhea went near Elena, while the girls also went closer at Elysia's invitation. An assumption arose from that event. It was just a pleading glance from Elysia, and the Goddesses imdiately moved to help?
"O Almighty Goddesses, please enlighten us about the facts regarding the Aquatic Race." Elysia sat in seiza position before the three divines with her hands clasped together. The girls behind her followed her movents by reflex.
"I am aware of your confusion and lack of information. Changes may have occurred so great from the Aquatic Race in the ancient era a hundred thousand years ago. In this era, so of the facts that Sylvia has explained are not wrong.
The Aquatic Race has no structured rulers, only overlords in their respective territories. They also often clash between factions, groups, or clans just for personal gain. Even if it is necessary to abolish the opposing party." Nell began to explain what she knew about the Aquatic Race in this era based on her observations and evaluations.
