Chapter 992 Status
It took the acolytes a total of three days to travel to Andora using the transport vessel – designated Deliverance. The recovery vessel – designated Hope they aboard, however, had slower speed, hence it would take them five days to come back to the academy.
Not only that, Hope also had smaller and fewer rooms as well as minimal facilities compared to other types of vessels, because most of its space was used for various equipment, instruments, and supplies needed by its medical center.
Though their return journey would take longer, there was no voice of dissent. After all, all of these acolytes had gone through such a grueling 10 day mission of constant fighting. Even though their wounds had healed, they still needed rest to recover from their immense exhaustion.
Hence no one really complains about the length of the return journey.
After Magus Rosy’s announcement was over, Emery returned to his 9 sqm room. His eyes twitched slightly as he was still not used to the all-white theme. He then flipped out a bed from the wall but decided not to rest just yet.
He turned his attention to his arm and accessed the symbol on his palm, checking out a certain data.
[Contribution points : 1,430, 274]
Emery’s eyes couldn’t help but light up when he saw his previously non-existent contribution points being filled with numbers again. This amount of contribution points would be enough for Emery to purchase a Divine spell or a dozen Rank A and B spells.
If Emery was looking purely at the cost and result, it was an effective 10 days of work, to say the least. Even though he didn’t really get any top ranking reward, the mission had brought a tremendous improvement to his stats.
[Emery Ambrose]
[Battle power: 250]
[Spirit force: 1545]
[Acolyte Rank 9 – Mid Stage – 10 pillars formed]
[Earth Spirit – 2 pilar]
[Plant Spirit – 1 pillar]
[Water Spirit – 1 pillar]
[Light Spirit – 1 pillar]
[Darkness spirit – 4 pillars]
[Undefined – 1 pillar]
Emery obtained more than 200 points of spirit force and formed 4 new pillars, with one among them a completely new element he had no affinity for. He also obtained the miraculous spell [Rebirth], which had to be a costly Divine spell.
Moreover, Emery had also managed to create three spells: [Primal Flora], [Void Mist], and [Dao Matter]. All three were top-notch spells, had their strong points in certain situations, and could definitely act as a trump card. Hence, Emery’s fighting power had taken a great leap once again.
All of those things were a great boon for Emery. However, there was still something else. Something that he hadn’t had time to check because of how hectic the situation had been for him before.
Emery crossed his legs and assumed a lotus position on the bed before he cast [Spatial Space] and let six figures out of it. Twik and the five Chizpur brothers made their appearances, filling almost the entire room with their grown stature. Immediately, their boisterous voices echoed throughout the room.
“Kuang.. ku.. kuu.. Kuang!”
“I’m sorry, the room is pretty small.” Emery said dryly. “Just… sit down whenever all of you for now.”
“Ku.. ku… kuang.. Ku”
All the plant creatures displayed their protests and voiced their complaints, and Emery just let them vent their feelings for a few minutes until they eventually finished and gradually calmed down.
After stroking their heads one by one for compensation, the next thing Emery did was of course check Twik’s current state. Meanwhile, the Chizpur brothers watched closely as their elder brother was being examined by their master.
“Did you feel anything out of the ordinary, Twik? Any issue or any discomfort at all, Twik?”
Emery was concerned about Twik as the latter had been possessed by the spirit beings, and later the Primordial Wisp itself. He worried that he was hurt in some way. After all, Twik did currently look a little different.
Its previous yellow limbs had turned grayish, while its leaves had turned into vibrant green. Twik’s current appearance eerily reminded Emery of the Tree of Light he had seen before. Without further ado, Emery checked Twik’s stats and he was taken aback by what he saw.
[Flora Colossi – Stage 6 (7)]
[Legendary Creature Level 60 (90)]
[Battle Power – 125 (155)]
[Innate Ability]
[Plant Mastery]
[Regen]
[Fusion]
A high-level Legendary creature, that was Twik now. It had made Twik have a similar level of power to a saint-level warrior, but added with his extremely tough body and his new skill [Regen], Emery personally thought that Twik could even be stood toe-to-toe to half a dozen saint-level warriors.
On another aspect, Emery certainly could not wait to try the [Fusion] skill again, to see how strong he would be with the current Twik, even though he doubted that he could do it without the help of the Primordial Wisp.
Regardless, Emery couldn’t really give it a try right now due obvious reasons. Hence he put the idea aside for later, maybe sometime after they had returned to the academy.
Now that he was done with Twik’s examination, Emery turned his attention to the Chizpur brothers.
[Chizpur Fang – Stage 6]
[Magical Creature Level 60 (72)]
[Battle Power – 70 (75)]
[Spirit Energy – Plant and Earth]
[Innate Ability]
[Manipulate Earth]
[Earth Burrows]
[Wide Guard]
There was no astonishing stage upgrade like Twik, but on average the Chizpur brothers managed to raise about 10 levels each. Even though not as remarkable as their elder brother, it still gave them a boost of power and confidence.
“You boys have also done a very, very good job.” Emery said with a smile, thanking them for all their help during the mid-test. “Well done.”
Emery had now finished checking the gains he got in this mid-test. However, just as he was about to put Tweak and the Chizpur brothers back to his Spatial Space and go to rest, there was a knock on his door.
Knock! Knock!
“Emery, it’s me. let me in.”
The familiar voice instantly brought a smile to Emery’s face. He quickly got off the bed and walked to the door before opening it to see the face he had expected. The Egyptian Queen with lustrous black hair stood there, a wide smile adorned her beautiful face.
“Hey, there.” Klea said, waving her hand coquettishly. “What are you up to?”
Before Emery could answer her question, Klea noticed the six little creatures. Her eyes lit up and she forced herself into the room without waiting for Emery’s invitation, causing the already cramped room to become even more cramped.
“Hello, cute boys~ How are you all doing?”
Emery seemed to have disappeared from the girl’s mind as she completely ignored him and started patting the creature. In the meantime, Twik and the Chizpur brothers seem to be enjoying her caress.
“I guess they were all male, after all.” Emery thought to himself when he saw how content Twik and the Chizpur brothers were under Klea’s care. He let her play with the plant creatures and only after a while did he finally open his mouth.
“Why are you here, Klea? Do you need anything from me?”
Unexpectedly, the girl threw a sharp gaze at him before saying, “Well, as your girl, I think I don’t need a reason to visit you. Or do I?”
Emery felt a chill run down his spine when he heard her last words, so he quickly shook his head. “No, of course not”
“Hmph!” Klea then turned her attention back to the Twik and Chizpur brothers and whispered to them, but in a voice loud enough for Emery to hear.
“You guys have to remember this, I am your master’s girl, meaning that I am your lady master. So if your master hurts you, you can always find me for help. Or… if you feel bored with him, you can all stay with me too!”
Even though Emery clearly knew that the girl was teasing him, he was still speechless by Klea’s words. Patting Twik and the Chizpur brothers once more, Klea got off the bed and walked over to Emery, whispering, “Actually, there is something I want to show you in my room. Come on, follow me.”
Klea grabbed Emery’s arm and dragged him across the corridor past three decks until they arrived at her designated room. But before she opened the door, Klea suddenly turned around, with her back covering the door, she slowly opened her mouth.
“Do you know… that the two Nephilims are a couple?” Klea asked.
Emery showed a confused expression before shaking his head. He was a bit confused about what she meant. Seeing his reaction, Klea pulled Emery so her lips were next to his ear. A tinge of red appeared on her cheeks as she whispered.
“Apparently, they share a room together.. So-“
Klea swiftly opened the door, while her hand grabbed Emery’s arm to pull him inside. Within her 9 square meter room was a completely different view from the one Emery occupied. Instead of plain and completely white, the room was completely decorated, with a comfortable bed, silk pillows, candles, and even drinks.
Emery turned his head only to see Klea closing the door behind them. A suggestive smile formed on her face as she slowly walked towards him.
“This has been long-awaited, don’t you agree..?”
Klea spoke those words in such a flirtatious tone, while gradually removing the clothes clinging to her body. Slowly but surely, an alluring body with irresistible curves and charm was revealed before Emery’s eyes.
Emery was so mesmerized by her beautiful figure and seductive gestures that the girl easily pushed his body onto the bed, and before he even realized it, she had pounced and sat on top of him.
Her beautiful face drew closer to his, until her lips were once again next to his ear.
“Now, nothing else can bother us… no stupid arranged marriage with my brother, no princess waiting back home, no exhausting missions or getting lost on unknown planets.” Klea raised her head again, looking directly into Emery’s eyes.
Unlike the previous time – the night they were first accepted into the elite class, this time Klea was determined to do the deed with Emery. However, her last words suddenly reminded Emery of something.
Emery grabbed her hands that were on his body and said, “Klea, …actually there is something that i need to tell you first.”
