Chapter 368 The 5th Familiar Beast
Chapter 368 The Fifth Familiar
The sea is azure and sparkling, and the flowers and plants along the beach are full of life.
Winter goes and spring comes, and all things revive.
Suddenly, a cracking sound erupted from the sea, waves surged, and a ball of light shot into the sky.
The ball of light dissipated, revealing figures: a black-haired youth in a long robe and a blue-haired girl in a feathered robe.
The blue-haired girl was being held in the arms of the black-haired young man. Her delicate face was flushed, and her eyes were half-closed, looking exhausted.
Shichen looked at Aqua, who was already half asleep, and couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.
This is the third time already, and Aqua still can't withstand his onslaught, even though he's been very gentle.
Is this all there is to being a goddess?
His initial refusal to admit defeat was just stubbornness.
As they flew into the sky, the towns on the ground became indistinct, and Aqua shook slightly.
"Aqua, don't you want to experience the feeling of flying?"
"Ugh...time...I'm so tired..." Aqua replied softly, her eyes barely open.
"You don't want to ride the dragon anymore?"
"Dragon!" Aqua perked up a little, groggily opening her eyes, which were still wet with tears.
"Come on, stand still first." Shichen smiled and put Aqua down.
"Huh? How come we're in the sky!" Aqua became even more energetic. She quickly hugged Toki, clinging to him like an octopus, her legs tightly wrapped around his waist.
"Didn't I tell you I can fly?" Toki patted Aqua on the back to comfort her.
"So it really is true!"
"Why would I need to lie to you?"
During this period, he hadn't done any missions and had been idle every day, so Shichen had no chance to show Aqua and the others his flying abilities.
He's not the type to show off.
"What about the dragon?"
"I'll show you right away."
Shichen had his right arm around Aqua, and his left hand was raised, with a green "△" symbol appearing on the back of his hand.
It's not a triangle, it's a delta.
Immediately afterwards, green magic surged from Shichen's entire body, gathering above his head.
"roar--!"
Accompanied by a majestic dragon roar, a vast amount of magic power formed a long dragon, a long and enormous green dragon.
The dragon is entirely green, but it is decorated with yellow ring-shaped patterns on its body, which eventually extend to the top of its head.
It has two limbs with three claws on each wrist, two long, flat, horn-like structures on its head, and two smaller horns below them. It also has protruding gums and two clearly identifiable fangs at the tip of its upper snout.
The fifth familiar that awakened when Time absorbed the blood of Saber—Artoria.
Rayquaza, the dragon of the skies and the ruler of the skies.
At the same time, he also mastered the ability to fly.
"Wow! It really is a dragon! But why is it like this?" Aqua looked at the enormous dragon above her head, extremely excited, and completely woke up.
"This is Rayquaza, a sky dragon with the potential of an Eastern dragon," Shichen explained, gazing at Rayquaza's handsome figure.
"Eastern Dragon? I see, I've heard a little about it."
"Isn't he handsome?"
"That's so cool! Can I ride it?"
"Of course, Rayquaza!"
"roar--!"
Rayquaza let out a long roar, then twisted its body and flew swiftly to the feet of the two.
Time, holding Aqua, landed on Rayquaza's nape.
"Oh, the feeling of being grounded made Aqua even more excited. She grabbed Rayquaza's horns on both sides of its head, feeling the texture, and was full of vigor."
Rayquaza, let's go!
Naturally, Rayquaza remained motionless.
"Shichen~" Aqua looked at Shichen with a wronged expression.
"Hehe~ Rayquaza, fly in that direction, no need to go too fast," Shichen commanded with a smile.
"roar!"
Rayquaza responded and flew toward Axel.
The speed was not slow at all, and Aqua's soft, long hair was blown into a mess, but she didn't care at all.
"Amazing! That's incredible!"
At this moment, Aqua seemed to have fully recovered her physical strength and spirit, showing no signs of fatigue from the passage of time.
He had just been pleading with Shichen.
I wonder if goddesses recover more easily.
Rayquaza's flight speed is far superior to that of a carriage; even if it slows down, the journey from Alcanrethia to Axel will only take a dozen minutes.
If the time were to fly by itself, it would probably be a bit slower.
"Look! What's that?"
"What kind of monster is that? It's huge!"
"We're doomed! With this kind of monster appearing, is our starting village going to be wiped out?"
"What terrifying magical energy fluctuations! This is nothing compared to the headless knight from before!"
"Why are these monsters appearing in our starting village?!"
"What should we do? What time is it?"
"He might not even be able to solve it, right?"
"Wait! Look! There's someone on this monster!"
"Isn't that it?!"
The colossal Rayquaza suddenly appeared above the starting village; how could the villagers not notice it!
Its terrifying magic, the oppressive aura and power it exuded, filled the villagers with nothing but fear!
Despair gripped my heart.
However, Rayquaza didn't fly very high, and those with sharp eyes on the ground quickly noticed Toki and Aqua.
"Isn't that the time of day?"
"And Aqua!"
"Why are those two on top of this monster?"
"Could it be... that Shichen tamed this monster?"
"Really?"
"Wow, that's amazing! No wonder you're a hero in our newbie village!"
"Time!"
The villagers instantly lost their fear and excitedly waved their hands, drawing Shichen's attention.
"Toki, look! The people in town are greeting us!" Aqua excitedly tugged at Toki's clothes.
"Do you want to go down and talk to them?"
"No, I'm so tired, I can't walk anymore, I want to go home and sleep."
"Hehe~ I wonder who was so arrogant at the beginning."
"Hmm...that doesn't make sense. I'm not in pain anymore, and shouldn't you be the one who's more tired in this kind of situation?" Aqua said shyly.
"Those are normal people, I'm not like them."
"No wonder you're so fickle, you even tried to sleep with Darkness." Aqua pouted.
"Uh...you know?" Shichen was taken aback.
"Hmph~ I'm a goddess, what can't you see?"
"Okay... don't tell Huihui and the others."
"Why? I think they've already fallen for you. This world isn't a monogamous world."
"It's different. The two girls are still young; this kind of thing isn't suitable for them to know."
"They're not young anymore. Time is different in this world, so they're actually quite a bit older."
"Really?" Shi Chen didn't recall having this feature.
"I'm the goddess of this world, of course I know." Aqua put her hands on her hips.
"Okay, okay, it's all the same. I want to tell them in person later." Shi Chen rubbed her head.
"Whatever."
"But aren't you jealous?" Shichen asked curiously.
"I'm a goddess, how could I be jealous... Okay, a little bit, it would be great if you were only nice to me." Aqua pouted unhappily.
"Then why?"
"Who told you to be so good to me? By the time I realized it, you were already such a womanizer."
"Don't worry, I will always be this good to you."
"That's more like it."
Back at the villa, just as Shichen was about to recall Rayquaza, Megumin rushed out of the villa.
"What a huge monster! Toki, why are you on it?" Megumin stared at Rayquaza with her eyes glowing red.
"It's called Rayquaza, it's mine, so of course I can have it."
"Wow, that's amazing! I want to ride it too!"
"Of course you can."
"Then let me get on! I want to ride!" Huihui exclaimed excitedly, waving her arms and legs.
"What...what is this? It's huge! It's terrifying!"
"Oh my gosh! I wonder what it will feel like to be pressed down by it! It must feel so good!"
Youyou and Darkness also ran out of the villa.
"Don't be afraid, Rayquaza is mine, and it will obey me completely," Shichen comforted her.
"Really? As expected of Shichen, he's amazing!"
"Hehe~ Want to hop on and ride it around?"
"Is it...okay?"
"Of course you can."
"Then I want to ride it!"
"Me too!" Darkness exclaimed.
"no problem."
Shichen patted Rayquaza's head to let it land. After Aqua went down, Megumin and the other two excitedly climbed up.
There was no rush to bring Frilian along; there would be plenty of time later.
Maybe she's not even interested in that kind of thing.
After saying goodbye to Aqua, Toki took the three of them on a journey through the sky.
Everyone wants to fly; no one can refuse to soar through the sky.
On this day, Shichen accompanied Huihui and the others flying around, but only within the Axel area.
After all, if they went to other places, it would definitely cause riots.
