Chapter 529 - The Powerful Holy Church Assassin (1/2)

After obtaining Isabella's approval, Jiang Fei took out the piece of jade that Sylphy had given to him.

"AH! When did you own such a thing!?" cried Isabella when she spotted the communicator. Annoyed and jealous, Isabella started pounding Jiang Fei's back like a little kid.

"Come on! This is not important now!" Jiang Fei said bitterly as the situation with King Elric was getting desperate. There was no time to play with Isabella.

"Hmph! You're right. This is not important now. But don't think that I'll let you go once this is all over!" Isabella snorted and went to Ariel to calm her down.

"Sylphy…" Jiang Fei whispered the name into the Jade Plate.

"You've finally called for me…" Sylphy's voice come came out of the Jade Plate. Her voice sounded both happy, melancholic, as well as bitter-sweet.

"Leave the Light Faction, I want you to stay by my side…" said Jiang Fei, picking his words carefully.

"Are you sure!?" cried Sylphy. She sounded extremely delighted as her pitch went up several octaves higher than normal.

"Yes. Meet me at XXX, XXX. I'll be waiting," said Jiang Fei.

"I'll be there right away!" Sylphy announced. The lovestruck Sylphy was waiting for an eternity for Jiang Fei to accept her. Hence, right after she had ended the call, she instantly morphed into a pillar of golden light and teleported to Jiang Fei's location. In less than ten minutes, Sylphy appeared next to Jiang Fei. As expected of an Overlord tier NPC, having such speed was nothing to be surprised of. To be honest, it was the bottled-up feeling of longing that Sylphy had kept to herself. Since Jiang Fei had asked Sylphy to be by his side, there was no need to hold back anymore.

"Husband…" said Sylphy instead of calling Jiang Fei by his in-game name.

"What did you say!?" roared Isabella when Sylphy addressed Jiang Fei as her husband. Naturally, Isabella would not stand by it. How could she let someone else take the position of the wife before her! She should have just waited for her turn! Like anyone else! Did she think that just because she had betrayed the Light Faction to be with Jiang Fei gave her the highest priority to become Jiang Fei's official spouse ? Over her dead body!

"Calm down! Calm down!" said Jiang Fei at the verge of crying. He knew that the two would not stop bickering with each other, or rather, Isabella would not stop hammering Sylphy, but he had never thought that Isabella would actually charge at her, ready to fight.

"Calm down! There are more important things at hand! Anything else can be settled later!" said Jiang Fei as he stood in front of Sylphy, protecting her.

"Sister Bella, my father is not going to last any longer!" said Ariel as tears started to roll down her cheeks.

"Sylphy, I need your help," said Jiang Fei to the legendary Holy Church Assassin.

"Anything for you. Your wish is my command," said Sylphy. To her, even if Jiang Fei asked her to die, if it made him happy, she would gladly obey his command.

"I need your help to rescue that Merfolk over there," said Jiang Fei as he pointed directly at King Elric.

"The Merfolk that is being surrounded by the Nagas?" said Sylphy as she affirmed Jiang Fei's request.

"That's correct. If it's possible, kill that strongest looking Naga and the rest of the Naga soldiers as well. However, your first priority is to save King Elric before the others," said Jiang Fei. He did not want to be greedy. As long as Sylphy could save King Elric, the rest of the objective was secondary.

"My beloved husband, I will do as you asked of me," said Sylphy before vanishing from his very eyes.

Jiang Fei drew in a deep breath and said, "Please work…"

At the instant Sylphy turned invisible, she made her way toward the barrier's magic circle. As expected of the Holy Church Assassin, Sylphy stealth skill was superb. Even after crossing the barrier, she had not leave a single detectable trace that would alert the Naga of an intruder.
