SNIFF SNIFF~
"My master, why do you sll of another Succubus?"
Ivsha gently sniffed Su Xuan’s skin, her keen sense catching the scent of another Succubus.
This made her brows furrow slightly, revealing a hint of surprise.
Su Xuan opened his mouth, unsure how to respond.
’She can even sll that?’ he wondered, a little perplexed.
SNIFF SNIFF~
Ivsha sniffed her beloved treasure again, a trace of doubt appearing on her stunning face.
Her dark purple pupils flickered with a strange light as she gazed at Su Xuan and murmured to herself, "This doesn’t seem to be the scent of another Succubus. Is it... my own?"
Su Xuan was silent for a mont before asking, "Ivsha, do you hate it when I’m around other won?"
"Not at all."
Ivsha shook her head and explained, "I don’t mind sharing Mr. Su Xuan with others. I’m just a little worried you’ll be hard by a greedy Succubus~"
"..."
For a mont, Su Xuan was at a loss for words. ’So Ivsha knows this can be harmful too!’
Besides that, he was certain that what Ivsha had slled was likely the wisp of pure Lust Magic Power gifted to him by Edith. But why would Ivsha mistake it for her own scent?
That was a question only Edith could likely answer.
Once Ivsha had eaten her fill and was satisfied, the day’s commissioned tasks officially began.
He still had two unfinished F commissions on hand. Since there was so ti before he had to go to the church, he could take care of them along the way.
Commissioned Task 4 (F ): Kill Water Elves (0/10)
Task Reward: 5 Silver Coins, 500 EXP
Commissioned Task 5 (F ): Kill a water spirit (0/1)
Task Reward: 10 Silver Coins, 1000 EXP
"Huh? Why is the reward for the fifth commissioned task double the others?"
Su Xuan was a bit surprised. The reward for killing the water spirit was much higher than expected.
However, he wouldn’t learn the full story just by looking at the task description.
"Ivsha, Rosaline, it’s ti to head out and complete the tasks."
"As you command~"
As a white light flashed within the Teleportation Array, Su Xuan and the others appeared at the mission location.
Both commissioned tasks were in the sa area, which saved a lot of trouble.
Su Xuan looked around and found that the mission location was next to a lake.
A gentle breeze rippled across the tranquil lake, its surface glittering under the sunlight. But the lake was surrounded by yellow sand, with only a few withered old trees clinging to life, painting a scene of desolation.
"What a strange place for a mission..."
Su Xuan muttered to himself. The mission environnt was even stranger than he had imagined.
Generally speaking, Water Elves should be found in places lush with flowers and trees. Even if there wasn’t a large forest, they shouldn’t appear in such a desolate area.
"Mr. Su Xuan, do the Water Elves here seem more violent?"
Ivsha pointed out the Water Elves floating on the lake to Su Xuan. Their condition looked sowhat abnormal.
"Yes." Su Xuan nodded. He had noticed this abnormality as well.
Water Elves were typically neutral-aligned, humanoid Demons. Their entire bodies were composed of the Water Elent, and they didn’t possess complex emotions.
They would only attack in self-defense when they encountered an enemy.
But these Water Elves looked like they had rabies, searching everywhere for targets to attack.
’Could it be because of the water spirit?’
’But water spirits aren’t Evil Units, are they?’
Just as he was pondering this, the Water Elves all turned their gazes toward their location.
Then, filled with chilling killing intent, they charged in their direction.
"Rosaline!"
At Su Xuan’s command, Rosaline sprang into action!
Her blade was like a flash of lightning, instantly annihilating all the Water Elves that approached them.
[Killed Water Elf (6/10)]
"The task isn’t that hard, after all."
Su Xuan muttered to himself. With Rosaline’s high combat power, he could easily get through the novice period.
However, just as Rosaline was about to swing her sword to eliminate the remaining Water Elves, a massive pillar of water suddenly erupted from the center of the lake, shooting toward the sky!
"What is that?"
Before the curtain of rain could even fall, a Water Dragon ford from the lake’s waters was already coiling above it.
Su Xuan’s eyes flashed, and the Water Dragon’s attribute panel unfolded in his vision.
[Water Spirit Dragon (Elite)]
Level: 19 (3799/3800)
Race: Elent/Fairy
Power: 300 / Agility: 200 / Magic Power: 400 / Physique: 500
Growth: 8 (Gains 8 points to All Attributes per level)
Skills: (Expand)
[Trait]: [water spirit] (This Additional Trait can be obtained by defeating the target)
[Status]: Corrosion
"A new Additional Trait?"
Su Xuan looked surprised after seeing the water spirit’s Additional Trait.
"Corrosion?"
Besides the new Additional Trait, he also noticed the word "corrosion" in the water spirit’s status bar.
[Corrosion: It is being corrupted by Dark Magic, making it more violent and cruel.]
"Be careful. This enemy is extrely powerful."
Su Xuan warned Ivsha and Rosaline.
"Mhm~"
"Leave it to us."
The mont the words were spoken, Rosaline imdiately swung her sword and charged forward.
Her heavy armor wasn’t a burden. Golden Magic Power blood from the soles of her Iron Boots, supporting her and allowing her to dash across the lake’s surface.
At the sa ti, Magic Power surged from Ivsha’s fingertips.
Golden Holy Light and dark purple Fallen Fire intertwined, targeting the water spirit in the center of the lake and plumting down.
"ROAR!"
The Water Dragon form of the water spirit sensed the danger and imdiately shot out a powerful jet of water, trying to stop Rosaline from getting closer. At the sa ti, it raised a huge water curtain, successfully blocking Ivsha’s Fla and Holy Light attack.
Facing the gushing jet of water, Rosaline didn’t hesitate. Her blade sliced through the air, instantly cutting the stream in two. She moved swiftly, arriving in front of the water spirit in the blink of an eye. Her Oath Sword, glinting with golden light, humd as it swung down toward the head of the water spirit’s Water Dragon form.
A single strike!
It tore through the water curtain and severed the dragon’s head.
However, it was unrealistic to think that this single blow could kill the water spirit. The water spirit’s Level was far higher than a Water Elf’s, and even with the Power of Oath contained within Rosaline’s blade, she couldn’t damage its core essence.
In just an instant, the water spirit reford. It opened its massive maw and shot a ferocious jet of water at Rosaline.
However, the mont the jet of water hit Rosaline, brilliant specks of starlight flickered around her body, and she took no damage.
It was her Crystal Body’s ability to nullify Elental Damage that allowed Rosaline to face the higher-level water spirit without fear.
She swung her sword again, severing the dragon’s head and draining the water spirit’s Magic Power.
Su Xuan couldn’t directly intervene in this battle.
But he was constantly observing the battlefield, searching for the water spirit’s weakness.
Although Rosaline was immune to Elental Damage, they could end the fight much faster if he could find the water spirit’s weakness.
"Hm?"
Suddenly, Su Xuan noticed a wisp of black aura swirling at the bottom of the lake, emitting a strange and sinister presence.
’Is this the thing that’s causing all the trouble?’
Su Xuan frowned. With a thought, he tried to probe the object for information.
[Witch’s Remnant Soul: From...]
Just as Su Xuan was trying to identify what this thing was, a laugh like silver bells echoed in his mind.
"Kekekeke~ Such a unique soul~ I’ll be taking yours~"
However, the mocking laughter had only just begun when it stopped abruptly, turning into a horrified scream.
"Why? Why do you have her pendant?"
"No! Don’t!"
"AHH!"
"?"
