1014 The Last Quick Patrol
“Have you ever wondered about the Beast Race’s strongest potential and combat power to face the accursed?” Luna crossed her arms under her breasts. She looked at the vast forest and the massive fortified city below with a profound gaze.
“Their tremendous physical power, unique magic affinities, and super body constitution?” Evelyn tried to guess. That was all she knew about the advantages of beasts.
“That’s half true, but there is one other thing that made them one of the top contributors in the battle a hundred thousand years ago. Their race survived that horrific battle, and I believe the reason lies behind their powerful lineage and innate abilities.” Luna heaved a subtle sigh.
She was a soul fox from the Beastkin Race. Regardless of the racial differences and disputes, it did not change the fact that the Beast Race and the Beastkin Race were related.
“Ooh, so that’s the reason the Beast God produced so many offsprings. But our Goddesses also gave us some blueprints regarding their strengths, right? They would become like mythical beasts if they wore those types of equipment.” Dori tapped her cheek with her finger.
She had previously wondered about the Beast Race’s advantage over the accursed, but her worries seemed unnecessary. Unlike humans and devils with their advanced weapons, also unlike elves and dwarves with their unique artifacts… beasts and beastkins have themselves as their advantage.
“Yep, beast tatto adalah their trump card, similar to us. That skill dapat melipatgandakan overall power by tenfold, atau bahkan hundredfold dalam waktu tertentu.” Yusagi nodded in confirmation.
“Roar!” A powerful bearman activated his beast tattoo to trigger his lineage and innate abilities at once.
He then exterminated all the enemies before him like an unstoppable behemoth. No demons or invaders could withstand his might. All of them were annihilated in one fell swoop.
“Yeah, like that.” Luna pointed at the bearman, who was raging.
“Ooh~ So, that beast tattoo can be used to activate one’s hidden skill and talent at the same time.” Evelyn was enlightened.
“Hm? I heard you drew a soul fox beast tattoo on Ely, Lady Luna? Is that true?” Evelyn blushed slightly when she asked that.
“Yes, that is true. She is a special person with perfect affinity and constitution for all things related to magic. My artificial beast tattoo can be engraved onto her body without any problems, even though she is a human. As expected of our master. Her divine title in the future will probably be the Goddess of Magical Creation.” Luna clasped her hands. Her eyes lit up with awe and excitement as she recalled Elysia.
“…” Evelyn had nothing to say, but she branded Luna as a naughty lady. This mature fox dares to paint that kind of temporary beast tattoo on Elysia’s fair skin. She was surprised the Goddess of Light let Luna do that to Elysia.
Elysia’s beast tattoo wasn’t permanent and could become invisible when inactive, like the beastkin’s hidden skill. The Goddess of Light might close one eye and give Luna her permission because of that?
“The battle over there has been concluded. Let’s quickly patrol the entire Beast Continent, then rejoin Ely’s team. They will do something interesting in the seas, oceans, and forbidden lands.” Luna glanced east.
Beast Race’s progress was expected. They could finish all the preparations on time. The beasts in each region also had no significant problems for the Goddess’s envoys to intervene.
The remaining sealed areas were quiet, as if the powerful foes sealed within were waiting for their Gods to descend, so this was a very precious moment to wrap things up for that day.
Luna flew away from the vicinity with her team in a hurry. They wanted to quickly complete their mission and return.
At that moment, Fortuna had just finished her short inspection of the Elven Continent with her team. She hastily took her team away from that continent because the ever-curious Xentia was tempted by the shameless elven outfit.
The elves encountered no trouble, and the preparation went smoothly, so it was time to leave. They teleported to the Dwarven Continent to continue their quick inspection.
“Phew, I will be scolded if this little girl becomes affected by those exhibitionists.” Fortuna breathed a sigh of relief.

“Xentia was just curious… They offered me to wear the signature dress of dignified elves. It’s present, and elves are quite hospitable.” Xentia puckered her lips like an innocent child who had just admitted her wrongdoing.
“Well, never mind. Save that kind of elven dress; you can consult your master about it. But don’t wear it outside. Your high-tech battle dress already looks stunning.” Fortuna stroked Xentia’s head.
“O-oh, okay~” Xentia nodded in understanding. She immediately put her fancy elven dress into her space bag.
“Let’s continue our inspections and patrols on this Dwarven Continent. Although, I don’t think the dwarves will encounter any problems since they are extremely competent in matters the Goddesses have entrusted to them.” Lyla asked her team to move immediately.
“Good.” Fortuna nodded in approval. She and her team then hurriedly inspected the preparation progress and the current situation on the Dwarven Continent.
At the same time, Elysia’s team had just stopped at one of the forbidden lands. Lifa and Rhea went to meet the overlords of the corrupted Plant Race to make a deal with them.
Xero happened to be nearby. He detected the presence of the Goddesses and decided to find out what they were doing there.
“Hmm?” Xero frowned when he noticed two unnatural presences beside Oceanid.
“The wisps of the remnant souls? Who are they?” Xero had a doubt, but he wasn’t so sure. He immediately landed to confirm it.
“Yo, isn’t this the notorious Devil God? Oh, he is the Heretic God now, right? Who would have thought that the God who died the first in the apocalypse of the ancient era is still alive, safe and sound? Hahaha! Your sin and negative energy preserve your soul and body with the spirit intact.” Aether was pleasantly surprised when the one he wanted to meet came to greet him instead. He couldn’t help but ridicule this reckless yet arrogant God.
“Huh!? This kind of annoying tone of speaking. Are you the Ice God’s remnant soul? The ice that once melted in the hellfire ridiculously?” Xero’s frown deepened.
He had let go of that embarrassing past and moved on. Yet, this annoying remnant soul dared to humiliate him, especially in front of Elysia and Goddess Lina!?
“???” Elysia and Elena exchanged glances. They didn’t know why but didn’t want to be involved in the conversation.
“Well, you also need to count me out. You regressed a lot to appeal to your glorious era. But it seems something is wrong with you. Is that a divine curse power? You are half Ruvoid!?” Sorush gasped in surprise as he discovered the faint aura hidden within Xero’s body.
“The most effective method for countering curses is with other curses. Why are you surprised by something obvious? I didn’t waste thousands of years of trial and error on something pointless. The divine curse can no longer harm me. It makes me stronger instead.” Xero snorted sarcastically.
“Tch, let’s hope you don’t get consumed in the crooked path of no return. Otherwise, those ladies and their prowess will have to eliminate you.” Aether squinted his eyes and sighed. He had no place to advise this Heretic God.
“Needless to worry. If you can discover the truth, the girl there has two dangerous Goddess friends. One is the Void Goddess of Darkness and the Chaos Goddess of Destruction. The latter was once Ruvoid God’s avatar with several fragments of the divine curse soul.” Xero pointed at Elysia, or rather, at Elysia’s shadow.
“What!?” Aether and Sorush gasped in surprise. They were aware of Zera’s danger and divine curses. Still, they didn’t expect that it also involved the elements of chaos. Not to mention, this kind of time bomb is under Elysia’s protection.
“Ai is my twin sister, and Zera is my good servant. Don’t you dare to speak ill of them?” Elysia crossed her arms and snorted in dissatisfaction.
“Girl, I have asked you before. However, will you really let that kind of dangerous creature be in your group? That Ai girl in your shadow is okay, but Zera girl is something else to consider.” Sorush put his hand to his forehead and sighed.
“Zera may be extreme, often violent or psychotic. But, deep down, she is a sweet, caring, and good girl. I put my trust in her. Even if she were to betray, she would not come to anyone but me.” Elysia shook her head. She blamed Xero for dragging her into the conversation.
A flash of liquid shadow mist seeped out from Elysia’s dark bracelet. An enchanting devilish beauty appeared floating behind Elysia, but she only materialized her upper half.
“Hoou~ I don’t like it when you question my master with that attitude. My master understands me more than anyone. I tolerate the first offence and will let it pass this time, but not for the next one. Please be prepared if you dare to question my master’s authority.” Zera smiled faintly and squinted her eyes. She exuded intimidation and oppression straight into the offenders’ souls.
“!?” Sorush and Aether received the most significant impact because they were only soul remnants.
“Zera, naughty girl. Don’t threaten people so casually. I’m not even offended. Apologize to them.” Elysia lightly tapped Zera’s head. She scolded this naughty girl like a master to the disciple.
Zera held her head and chuckled. She could only apologize half-heartedly, but she had already placed a note in her heart. “I’m sorry.”
