Chapter 336 - The (unexpected) Results Of Girls Talk (1/2)
[LOWERING ISOLATION BARRIER… COMPLETE]
[Now then, come along children~]
The avatar floated over and opened the door to the temple before she strolled out of the door, Mercury sighed before he followed after her, Naila hesitated for a few moments before she followed after and asked
”Mercury… That's an Archangel right?”
”Yeah”
”...Then why are you so calm?”
”Because I am not exactly mortal either”
Naila looked at Mercury for a bit before she sighed, then as Mercury walked ahead of her, deep devotion formed in her eyes as she remembered her brother's words from shortly before he died
'He is no ordinary man, he is no man at all… I wish that brother Terak had explained exactly what his [Eye's of appraisal] saw…'
Naila sighed, in the end, she had not gotten a clear answer out of him, soon the group of 3 emerged in the middle of the ruined city of Ode, the eyes of the avatar gazed indifferently across the field of death before she spoke
[Around 15.437 people died here~ As expected of a weapon from the age of the dragon council~]
Mercury sighed before he spoke
”You could at least sound a little remorseful Party…”
The avatar turned towards Mercury before she showed a wide smile and spoke
[Mortals are without limit, they are ugly and dirty~ They cheat, kill, rape, steal and harm others for their own benefit and amusment~ Why should I feel remorseful for such creatures?~]
Mercury nodded
”That's true I guess…”
[That's right Mercury~]
”But that's your view on things Party”
[Huh~… So you say that I am in the wrong~? Look around amidst this field of death carefully again before you lecture me~]
Mercury narrowed his eyes before he spoke slowly
”I have looked around this field of death, I have scoured every inch of this field of death for survivors for 7 days and I still think you are wrong”
[Really? Then why don't you explain why?]
Mercury felt Party's voice grow cold, clearly, she wasn't in the mood to have her views challenged, still, he pressed on
”I don't know what you have seen, nor do I know as much about this world as you do… But I still know you are wrong about mortals”
Party kept silent, then Mercury continued
”There are two types of people in any world Party… People and scum”
[People and scum… Aha~ That's a good one~]
Mercury showed a smile before he followed after Party that strolled around the ruins and eventually arrived at the survivor camp where the avatar casually strolled in as the people around felt the divine aura and instinctively kneeled down as Party casually asked
[Introduce me to your girlfriends Mercury~ Your parent Party will look them over and see if they're good enough for you~]
Mercury sighed before he gestured for Party to follow after him as he walked out to the edge of the camp and found Julia and Marie, Julia was helping Marie practice walking, Marie was walking way better than she was yesterday, still, she looked a little insecure on her feet almost like a newborn fawn
”Julia, Marie”
The two of them looked over and showed smiles when they saw Mercury, though those smiles stiffened slightly when they saw the avatar floating next to him as they quickly kneeled down on the ground and lowered their heads, Party looked rather smug, Mercury sighed before he spoke
”Don't scare my women”
[Fine~ Come let me have a look at you two~]
Julia and Marie stopped kneeling and stood up, they still looked nervous however, this Party quickly took a jab at
[Mercury I didn't expect you to find such weak-willed women~]
Mercury narrowed his eyes slightly but remained silent as suddenly Julia spoke
”We're not weak-willed, isn't that right Marie?”
Marie also looked up, her red eyes flashed with will as she spoke
”That's right… Y-You're tongue is just sharp because we know Mercury better than you!”
[Hoo~ She has a mouth on her that one~ Fine, I'll stop being mean, what's your names?~]
”Julia Helia Augustus”
”Marie Thompson”
[Then Julia and Marie, come let's chat for a bit~]
The avatar snapped its fingers and a transparent dome appeared around Party, Marie and Julia, Mercury recognized this as a soundproofing barrier due to the fact that he could see their mouths moving but couldn't hear them, so he sighed before he looked at Naila and spoke
”Let's go spar for a bit, they're not likely to be done anytime soon”
Nalia nodded as she spoke clearly
”Yes, Mercury!”
