Volume 1 Chapter 561
by post_apiChapter 561: The Great Navigator Captain Naivee Once Set Sail to Prove That the Earth Is Round!
"Whoosh—"
The Holy Light, which seemed invisible, took shape in Lolth’s hands.
She violently ripped off the wings of the Judgment Angel.
The Judgment Holy Light formed into a human shape, and it did not appear to feel any pain.
It should have been like that.
However, after Lolth tore off its wings, it shuddered.
It seemed to clearly feel a bit of pain.
This was the effect of the Power of Judgment.
No matter if it was a god, a magical beast, an invisible thing, or a ghost…
As long as there was a sinner who was attacked, they would feel pain.
Just like those made of flesh and blood, they must feel and taste the same pain.
Even if you were another embodiment of the Power of Judgment…
It was not allowed.
After Lolth tore off the wings of the Judgment Angel, the power of Holy Light in her hands instantly vanished into nothing.
After feeling the pain, the Holy Light angel spoke again.
"You—"
"Heresy!"
But this time, instead of facing the proud judgment of the turtle girl, it felt more like a desperate situation.
It shrieked loudly and swung the Holy Light sword again.
The sword, dragging light behind it, struck heavily towards Lolth’s shoulder.
And this time, the same…
Just before touching Lolth’s body, as if by some rule…
The sword’s advance was stopped!
This time, Lolth looked at her opponent with a calmer expression.
"Last time, it might have been due to ignorance."
"But this time, you must have known what you were doing."
She spoke in a cold tone as she declared.
Then, she reached out her finger and gently tapped the tip of the sword.
Lolth reached out to touch it, and there was no barrier.
The tip of the sword flicked by Lolth vanished as if it were a torn Holy Light wing.
The scattered Holy Light disappeared again, and Lolth looked at the other person.
The onlookers below realized what was happening…
This was definitely not a fair duel.
But what did that matter?
After all, this was Hillenbrand Town, Lolth’s territory.
No one supported the Judgment Angel.
To be honest, even if there was a battle on the ground of The Church of Light, since Lolth had almost completely built her reputation there, it was hard to say which side had more supporters.
It was likely to be seen as… the Director of the Heretic Tribunal controlling the wild Power of Judgment within herself.
But anyway, in Hillenbrand Town, no one cared about the Judgment Angel.
Everyone wished he would just drop dead quickly.
Even the Lady of Light thought this way.
Because of the preconceived notion, even if Lolth was not using the Holy Light power now, the Lady of Light still saw her as her senior.
In fact, she even felt a bit amazed.
"As expected of a senior, she truly has other powers to face the Holy Light."
In the long past, the seniors did notice the limits of Holy Light’s power.
No, perhaps the records were simply flawed.
Back during the civil war, the seniors must have used this kind of power.
It was just inconvenient to record, which was why there were so many "gaps."
About why there were so many holes in that history, the Lady of Light felt she understood!
This was all because the seniors were too powerful and miraculous.
Tina and Isabella heard the Lady of Light’s thoughts and looked at the holy and noble girl’s face that showed "I think I understand."
It seemed that this little girl was very much like her past self…
Meanwhile, in mid-air, Lolth continued to strike the Judgment Angel.
The turtle was absolutely right…
If one side could not fight back, then it was just one-sided beating.
After the Holy Light sword shattered, Lolth grabbed her opponent by the throat.
Then, with her other hand, she slowly tore off the angel’s arms and legs.
The parts that were removed also quickly vanished.
The remaining parts, resembling a distorted human, also disintegrated under Lolth’s strong grip.
The flames around her burned away the last of the Holy Light’s power.
The embodiment of the will of the Land of Light appeared before Lolth…
Just like a fragile chicken, it could not withstand a blow.
Even if this was only a part of the will, it was still so.
After reading through, the turtle sitting on the boat only felt…
Strange.
Why did the Judgment Angel, the embodiment of Holy Light power, not fight back at all?
How could that pink flame even devour the power of Holy Light?
She couldn’t understand.
But the turtle could clearly realize one thing.
That is…
"This damn succubus is really very dangerous."
She tugged at her hat brim and quietly sighed.
At the same time, she felt even more thankful.
"Thank goodness I don’t have to fight that succubus!"
She had a feeling that if she went in, she would turn into turtle soup in a second.
In front of the Judgment Angel, she looked awkward, but really she was just like Isabella and the others perceived…
This turtle was very comfortable in the water.
She was completely stalling for time, waiting for help—although she had regained her human form with some unknown power, she also had many restrictions on her actions.
Of course, the help that finally arrived was much stronger than expected, which she had not anticipated.
Although she had imagined it would be Lolth…
But who would have thought that Lolth had turned into a truly scary character today?
Just as the turtle was marveling at this, she suddenly heard a burst of laughter behind her.
"Ah ha ha ha—"
The turtle, crouching in the wooden barrel in the cabin, peeked out and turned around to see a pink-haired girl laughing at the bottom of the cabin.
"Kululu?"
She showed a look of surprise.
"How did you get in?"
Kululu looked at her, slowly losing her smile, and then showed a puzzled expression.
She had her hands on her hips and tilted her head while looking at the turtle.
"What’s wrong, Naivee Bernice? Did you forget how your ship, the Divine Fog Breaker, came back into the world?"
"You’re right; this isn’t a real ship; it’s the Scroll of Aksha…"
The turtle girl scratched her head and then showed a cute smile.
"Oh dear, we must thank Master Kululu… If it weren’t for the power you left behind, Hillenbrand Town would be lost! Without you, there would be no Hillenbrand Town!"
"Lord Lolth is the sun of Hillenbrand Town, and you are the moon of Hillenbrand Town!"
"You are Lord Lolth’s great helper, the forever strong support of the people of Hillenbrand Town. My admiration for you has always been endless!"
"With you, the Abyss is like a ship with a rudder; with you, the Demon Army is like a fishing rod with a bobber; with you, Hillenbrand Town is like a compass with a needle!"
As the turtle said this, Kululu waved her hand vigorously.
"Alright, alright, I understand what you mean… Isn’t this your ship…? I’ll just make you a permanent version in a bit."
"Although I have many limitations now… I can still help you with this."
As Kululu said this, the turtle girl Naivee showed a look of surprise.
"Really?"
Then, she began to think deeply.
"So… what is the price?"
She knew well that Kululu seemed like a friendly and easygoing girl, but she was definitely not someone who would help without conditions.
Naivee touched her nose and looked at Kululu nervously.
Kululu looked at Naivee and couldn’t help but laugh out loud once again.
The more she laughed, the more chills Naivee felt.
"Lady Kululu, what have you been laughing about since just now?"
When Kululu heard Naivee’s question, she laughed even harder and rolled on the ground.
"Ahahahaha—I was… hahaha, laughing at what you just said… that sentence! The thought of it makes me laugh so much!"
"Which sentence?"
Naivee listened to Kululu’s laughter and was very confused.
Kululu pointed a finger and began to explain in bits and pieces.
"Aha… it’s that line, ‘Thank goodness… I don’t have to,’ hahaha, ‘deal with that’… hahahahaha, I can’t take it!"
"Thank goodness I don’t have to deal with that succubus?"
Naivee remembered what she had just said and instinctively repeated it.
Kululu, who was rolling on the ground with laughter, struggled to stand up with the help of the wall and nodded.
"What’s so funny, Lady Kululu?"
Naivee asked instinctively, and then…
She saw Kululu looking at her with sympathetic eyes and displayed a shocked expression.
"Oh no, this can’t be right… Master Kululu?"
She swallowed hard, and under Kululu’s gaze, she felt a chill run down her spine.
Naivee peeked her head out of the window and looked up.
Lolth floated in the sky, surrounded by burning pink flames, her red dress billowing in the wind, as if a goddess had descended.
The scene of tearing the Judgment Angel apart like ripping crispy chicken was fresh in her mind.
She pulled her head back and shook it like a rattle.
"No, no… I will die!"
She said with great certainty.
After a pause, she emphasized again, "I will die a terrible death!"
Kululu looked at her with great interest and shook her head.
"It’s okay, the angel that just transformed with Judgment Holy Light used a lot of energy, so she’s weak too; you still have a chance."
As Kululu said this, Naivee glanced at the pink flames that were burning more fiercely and then smiled.
"You’re talking nonsense!"
She said very cheerfully and straightforwardly.
Kululu heard this and was not angry.
After thinking for a moment, she took out a glass bottle from her pocket.
"Here, your blah blah blah something something divine ship."
"Don’t say that, Master Kululu. Even if you really want to recreate the ‘Invincible Voyager of the Seven Seas, Conqueror of the Islands Divine Ship,’ I won’t be interested," Naivee waved her hand. "It’s just an old ship. Wait, is this really brand new?!"
She looked at the tiny ocean and huge waves inside the glass bottle, where a towering black ship sailed between dark clouds and roaring waves, and at its arrival, the sea monsters’ tentacles and dorsal fins retreated deep into the sea.
It was like a dark iceberg or the most terrifying silent giant beast in the ocean.
On the five huge gray-white sails, there was the familiar crossed symbol.
She opened her mouth and suddenly thought of many things.
Kululu looked at her, and there was no trace of a smile on her face.
"Naivee, I can’t help Little Lolth get out of this state," she said, showing a pleading expression, "only those blessed by Plane Will can do this… You still have the will of the Seven Seas, right?"
"I am begging you, Captain Naivee."
Kululu said seriously for once.
Naivee Bernice, the only sailor from the Second Era, opened her mouth and sighed after gaining her human form again after a long time.
"There’s no choice… Since you called me captain… I guess we have to give it a try."
As she said this, her eyebrows drooped.
"After all, I went to sea for such a silly reason."
Kululu looked at her, pressed her lips together, and bowed.
Then, Naivee waved her hand.
"There’s no need for that. After all, I’m just going to help you fight Lolth… or rather, take your place and receive a beating."
As she said this, her tone became relaxed again.
But Kululu shook her head.
"No, I bow down for everything you did in the Second Era… If it were me who woke up, I would never let you become like this."
As she said this, Naivee pouted.
"Oh well, I have no regrets… After all, we set sail in the first place to make a bet."
"I know, you heard that you wanted to prove that the mainland plane is a sphere, just like the sun, moon, and stars appear," Kululu winked and then asked, "So… what was the result of that voyage?"
This matter does not have any written records, but for Kululu, it is not a secret.
Hearing this, Naivee scratched her head and showed a shy expression.
"I lost… the mainland plane is indeed flat… but I can’t really say it’s completely flat."
As she said this, she showed a look of regret.
"There is a slight curve, like an arch… but it’s not a ball," Naivee scratched her head hard and said, "I was sailing the ‘Invincible Emperor of the Sea, Conqueror of the Islands’… and then I fell off the edge of the world along with the ship."
"There is no land there, the space will collapse, and the water will keep flowing into nothingness, not knowing where it goes… Speaking of which, you don’t know either, right?"
Naivee looked at Kululu and asked back.
"Things above the sea are not in my area of knowledge," Kululu shook her head, "it’s really amazing… so what happened after you fell?"
"Oh—below is the Dimensional Barrier, but it’s very weak; I went right through it and ended up in a place full of spirits; it took a lot of effort to come back," Naivee showed a slightly pained expression, "never mind, let’s not talk about it… it’s time to go fight Lolth."
As she said this, she stood up and looked up at the sky.
Then, the entire worn-out black ship followed her…
Slightly raised.
The worn bow of the ship pointed to Lolth in the sky.
