Chapter 33: Huge Event (2/2)
”Higher Grounds?” Seth asked.
Lilian nodded.
”There are three Higher grounds that are far stronger than any nation and they are the rulers of our territory. Although, you will not see any of them appearing that much on the outside world, as they are sects fully focused on cultivation.”
Lilian continued: ”This week, the biggest event in this city history will happen. One of those sects will be recruiting the most talented individuals for training. On top of that, this sect is known to have the most beautiful females, and they will ever only accept females as their disciples.”
”Only females?”
”Could this be...” Caizhi looked in shock.
”Yes, one of the strongest sects in this world will be recruiting. The Glazed Lake!”
”The Glazed Lake is responsible for one of the most important contributions for this continent. Their sect arts are based on the water element and its ice variant. They used that proficiency to map the oceans surrounding the entire continent. That is a fact worth enough to be remembered for, however, what makes than more famous is that any female they recruit is a peerless beauty.”
”And they have one of the top three beauties in the entire world!” Caizhi continued.
'What the hell? Is there even a top three for these things?' Seth couldn't understand why people valued beauty so much.
”Top three beauties? Care to explain?”
Lilian and Caizhi looked at him like he was some country bumpkin. A stare that a stylist would give to someone that knew nothing about fashion.
”It's said that god has specially given these women all his care. The Elf Queen's only daughter. It's said that every flower would worship her whenever she appears. She lives hidden deep in the elf territory. People gave her that nickname of Fairy of Nature.”
Seth listened with attention.
”The deceased Devil Empress daughter. They say her beauty is like the shiny moon illuminating the night skies. Her personality is cold and frigid and she rarely interacts with someone. Her nickname is Silver Nights as she has a silvery hair that seems flawless.”
”!!!” Seth's jaw got so open that you could easily fit an apple inside now.
”Hm, why are you doing that funny expression?” Caizhi asked.
”Huh? It's nothing, she must be really beautiful to be described like that.”
”She is. People say that before the Demon empress passed away, she was not only beautiful, but cheerful and happy as well. It added even more to her beauty.”
Lilian continued: ”The other one is the Deep Lake Goddess, our human goddess. She is by far, the most talented person in the entire continent. Rumors are that she has recently entered the Mana Sovereign Realm, an unprecedented achievement for a person on her age. I think she is twenty-seven years old now, the other Sovereigns around the continent are all over three hundred years old at least.”
While Lilian talked about the Deep Lake Goddess her eyes sparkled with admiration. It's almost as if she was the pride of humanity. This actually made Seth develop a bit of interest towards this Deep Lake Goddess.
