Chapter 81 -80: Pursuit

“Pffft!” A gush of hot demonic blood shot up to a kilometer high in the sky. All the demons on the training ground let out mournful howls and cries. An infuriated, distorted head of a Snake Demon fell to the ground, followed by the mutilated body of the eight-armed demon.

“Let’s go!” Watching the legendary demon hunting battle conclude, Heloise urged Muria to leave.

“Shouldn’t we say goodbye?” Looking at the few Titans and Blazing Sky Descendants left on the battlefield, Muria asked Heloise with a strange feeling.

At this moment, there were less than half of the Titans and Descendants of the Blazing Sky in the demon training ground compared to the original number when the battle began.

In the face of the Snake Demon’s dying counterattack, many Titans and Descendants of Blazing Sky were severely injured and had lost their combat ability. Triggering their life-saving measures, they were teleported out of the Demon Training Ground.

Even those Titans and Descendants of Blazing Sky who remained were hardly in good shape. For instance, Sylvester, the eight-winged Blazing Sky Descendant and older brother of Michaela, was still in a state of combat, his white-hot flames just about to extinguish.

These Titans and Blazing Sky Descendants, who were basically left without much combat power, were utterly exhausted. This fully demonstrated the terror of the legendary Eight-Armed Snake Demon. The Titans and Blazing Sky Descendants had every advantage, but still ended up in such a predicament.

“There’s no need for that. Let’s go back!” said Heloise. A teleportation array appeared beneath her feet, and with the familiar spatial vibration, she disappeared from the drastically changed Abyss Training Field.

“Cassio.” Upon seeing Heloise depart, Muria silently called out to his spirit in his heart.

“Understood, beginning to build the teleportation array.”

…

“Phew!” In the pool brimming with a rich life-force aura, Muria took a breath and then immersed himself completely. Warm streams flowed into him through every pore. It was the Juice of Tree of Life taking effect, starting to heal the nearly unnoticeable internal injuries within his body.

Muria sank to the bottom of the pool, his mind preoccupied with the thrilling battle he had just witnessed. On one hand, he was amazed by the profound strength and capabilities of the Titan Tribe.

In their tribe, a gigantic teleportation gate was built, which connected to the Endless Abyss and summoned endless demons for underage Titans to hone their slaughter skills.

Even when summoning legendary demons, actual legendary, adult Titans didn’t bother to take action. Instead, they merely allowed a group of Soul Intent Level Titans to encircle and slay them, treating them like prey.

From Heloise’s words, it was apparent that the Titan tribe had done this kind of thing more than once or twice. Such arrogance and confidence in their own race could be terrifying.

Of course, after witnessing the battle, besides being awestruck by the strength of the Titan tribe, the defeat and death of the legendary Eight-Armed Snake Demon also provided Muria with a critical lesson.

Having a good weapon was crucial. If the weapon wielded by the Eight-Armed Snake Demon had been on par with those used by the Titans and Descendants of Blazing Sky attacking her, regardless of how prolonged the battle was, it wouldn’t have been destroyed.

In that case, the outcome of the Eight-Armed Snake Demon wouldn’t have been as tragic, having her head severed by a Soul Intent Level Titan wielding a Battle Halberd, an extreme humiliation for a legend.

Certainly, the moment when the Eight-Armed Snake Demon was summoned to the Abyss Training Field, her fate was sealed. Even if she repelled all the Soul Intent Level Titans and Descendants of Blazing Sky attacking her with her eight legendary curved swords, she still wouldn’t have been able to return to the Endless Abyss; because at that time, an adult legendary Titan would come forth to deal with her personally. The same death was inevitable, but the latter way of dying would be somewhat more dignified.

“Michaela!” After reminiscing about the legendary demon hunting battle, Muria couldn’t help but think of the ten-winged Blazing Sky Girl, Michaela, because, upon seeing her face for the first time, his world seemed to lose all its lustre.

“Am I in love?” Lying at the bottom of the pool looking at the light green pool water, Muria wondered, “Love at first sight? Bullshit. Probably because she is so beautiful. The world is always about looks, and I’m just shallow.”

Since Muria’s birth, he had seen all the Dragonborn Maidens in the Golden Dragon’s Crystal Castle, whose looks and figures were all above average, and the unparalleled beauty of the castle owner, the youthful Golden Dragon Mother Atreus, in her girl form.

Subsequently, Muria set up his own establishment on Taiji Island. Accompanying him were the Sea Clan members who in their half-human forms, such as Naga, Siren, and Mermaid, were prime beauties in his former world if one were to look only at their upper halves.

After decades of living in such an environment, Muria’s aesthetic standards had become extremely discerning. Common people’s idea of extraordinary beauty seemed average in his eyes. Yet, upon seeing Michaela for the first time, her beauty still dazzled him.

“…” After soaking in the pool and pondering for tens of minutes, Muria sat up abruptly and declared, “Look at her face it is, I’m this shallow. I don’t care, I’m going to pursue her!”

“Muria, who are you planning to pursue?” The half-phantom Cassio floated beside Muria, asking with a furrowed brow.

“I want to pursue a Blazing Sky Descendant.”

“What for? To compare speeds with her?” Cassio asked curiously. In her understanding, the word “pursue” had only one concept.

“Erm…” Muria felt awkward. He explained to Cassio, “What I mean is, I want a Blazing Sky Descendant to be my partner.”

“Understood!” Cassio nodded, “You’re talking about the one who beat you down in the demon training ground and didn’t want to get up, right?”

“Hmm!” Muria nods stiffly, “You saw my fight with Michaela?”

“I know most of what happens in our tribe.”

“That fight with Michaela wasn’t fair at all. She’s stronger than me and was wearing legendary armor. How was I supposed to fight her?”

“Muria, if Michaela was fair, she would let you fight her on the Gold Fourth Level. However, your future enemies might not be so fair.”

“I know, the Blazing Sky Gods are not allies of our Titan tribe. If I encounter an enemy of the Titans, I won’t give up even if I die.”

“That’s what you must do.”

“Enough beating around the bush!” Muria asks, a hint of expectation in his eyes, “How do you think I should pursue Michaela to make her become my mate?”

“After you reach the Gold Fourth Level, beat her with an absolute advantage. That’s the best way to pursue her.”

“What?” Muria is shocked. Despite no experience pursuing girls in his past life, he has never heard that winning a girl’s affection by fighting her was a viable approach. This doesn’t seem feasible at all.

The usual way of wooing should be like his first day when he arrived at the clan, being teleported to Heloise’s courtyard, where he met the Blazing Sky God Descendant playing the harp. One should create new melodies every day and play them for their loved ones.

“That’s your advice?”

“No matter what species, it will always prefer a mate superior to itself. This conclusion is based on the information database. Hence, if you want to pursue Michaela, defeating her is your best and only option.”

Muria looks silently at Cassio. Her words make so much sense that he can’t refute her. However, the idea of using force to pursue a potential mate seems… absurd!

“Isn’t there another way? Must I use force to win her over?” Muria asks stubbornly.

“Muria, recall Michaela’s wings.” Cassio calmly looks at Muria, “The Blazing Sky Fire is always burning on her wings, never extinguished.”

“Yes, that is true.” Muria nods.

“Do you know what the flames on a Blazing Sky Descendant’s wings represent?”

“Battle intent! Only when Blazing Sky Descendants enter battle mode, will their bodies ignite with flames.” Closing his eyes, Muria voices out the reality he has always subconsciously avoided, “Michaela is always ready for battle and always desires to fight. That’s why the flames on her wings keep burning.”

“Now do you understand what to do?”

“I understand.” Muria stands up from the pond, puts on his robe, and orders Cassio, “Build a teleportation array to Gerald’s place. I suddenly recall something. Once I clarify it with him, I’ll be back.”

Without a word, Cassio raises a mosaic of colorful magic powers outside the pond, swiftly creating a teleportation array on the ground.

…

“Muria, how come you’re free to visit me?” Gerald, holding a long spear, looks at the approaching Muria, “Aren’t you training with Heloise?”

It’s been over a month since Muria beat Titan teenager Gerald, exploiting the defense of the dragon scale armor.

“Heloise took me to the Abyss Training Ground for a fight, I just got back.” Muria laughs, “While fighting in the Abyss Training Ground, I encountered a Blazing Sky Descendant. I got a thought and wanted to ask you something.”

“What do you want to ask?” Gerald curiously asks.

“Erm, on my first day in the tribe, I saw a Blazing Sky Descendant playing the harp and pursuing Heloise at Heloise’s home. Why did he pursue Heloise? Did he start to pursue her from the first glance on?”

“No.” Gerald looks surprised at Muria, not understanding why he suddenly asked this question. Nonetheless, he answers, “He had a fight with Heloise. Being soundly defeated by her, he fell for Heloise and started to pursue her.”

“I see.” Muria nods, verifying Cassio’s earlier statement. However, he is different from that Blazing Sky Descendant.

That guy fell for Heloise after being beaten up by her, while his case was similar. He thought Michaela was very attractive, and after being beaten up by her, he became more determined to pursue her.

“What? You met a Blazing Sky Descendant at the Abyss Training Ground and got any ideas?” Gerald looks at him curiously.

“The Blazing Sky Descendant I met there, her name is Michaela.” Muria rubs his chin, “I want to pursue her!”
