Demi-human Girls Completion Manual-Chapter 970 - 49: Curtains and Barriers (Part 2)
Tangze Asuka sheepishly scratched her head, causing Fisher to glance at her for a moment before quickly looking away,
"I forgot to ask, how did you manage to complete that magic alone that night?"
"Um, actually, I don’t really know..."
Tangze Asuka tried hard to recall the state she was in holding the carving knife that night, then hesitated for a moment before adding,
"It just felt like... like I was doing calligraphy. In my mind, I kept thinking about Mr. Fischer’s inscriptions on the leaves, and as I wrote, I eventually finished."
"Calligraphy, what is that?"
"Ah, it’s writing with a brush or something like that. My father is very good at copying Buddhist scriptures. Oh, Mr. Fischer asked before about clues about the Chinese, and calligraphy seems to have been transmitted from China to Japan..."
"I see... So does that mean you’re very skilled at calligraphy?"
Tangze Asuka shook her head decisively, laughing awkwardly,
"Probably not, because my father asks me to copy Buddhist scriptures, and I never do it, I always slack off."
Fisher didn’t ask further, because they had already been led by Necolia to the top of the giant tree, which was similar to Uncle Chun’s palace, but entirely suspended and hollow, making it very convenient for other phoenixes to fly up.
By the time they arrived, many phoenixes had already gathered there, having just flown up.
"Father, these two humans I met in the back mountain say they have come with an angel, introduced by Uncle Chun, to seek aid."
Necolia put down the little Nephilim she was holding. She shook her bare wings and ran towards the end of the palace, greeting everyone along the way, including her uncles and brothers and sisters...
It seems the Phoenix Species is quite fertile. Fisher counted carefully, including Necolia and Nephilim, the current Phoenix Clan Leader has eight children.
In contrast, after the Moon Princess, the Ice Prince, and Prince Frost reached the Mythical Rank, their only child was a stillborn, which is a stark difference.
"Yes, this angel here has already told me the details. Necolia, I need to trouble you, it seems there are two angel companions outside who have yet to arrive."
The current Phoenix King speaking was a middle-aged man with mostly gray hair who looked very elegant, but age had inevitably left its traces on the forehead of this Longevity Species.
"You’ve arrived, not bad, you came earlier than the other two. So, did anything interesting happen?"
At this moment, from the side of the Phoenix King, a mischievous angel named Helair with short golden curly hair sat with crossed legs on a wooden chair, her blue-golden wings effortlessly passing through the back of the chair, seeming not to have a real form.
Tangze Asuka blushed immediately at these words, hugging herself uncomfortably as if it were very cold here.
"Did you separate us on purpose?"
But Fisher didn’t pay any mind to her teasing, only looking at her with displeasure as he asked.
His previous courtesy towards her Mythical Rank strength was completely dispelled by her extremely bad character; this angel species indeed had the magic to easily make people angry.
But obviously, she wouldn’t be an angel who’d care about such things.
She innocently spread her hands and defended herself,
"How could that be, even I can make mistakes sometimes, okay? It’s a big burden for me to teleport so many people at once... But well, when misfortune befalls, who knows if it’s a blessing, I took the chance to wander around by myself, it was a little break."
"...Alright, you’re the boss, whatever you say."
Fisher quickly calmed down, not wanting to engage with her, giving a perfunctory response and quickly reverting to previous courtesies. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
But such simple courtesies made Helair lose some interest. Her crossed-legged, happy expression faded a little, and her fingers tapping her fair cheek also paused. Fisher guessed that if he had continued to argue with her angrily, she wouldn’t have minded and would have been happier because it would be interesting.
She seemed to dislike orderly developments because they were uninteresting.
Fisher vaguely felt like he grasped a method to handle this annoying angel, but at this moment, he didn’t continue and instead asked,
"Where did you send Hooked kiss and Mikhail? Why haven’t they arrived yet?"
"...Oh, how would I know, I already said I didn’t do it on purpose. But they shouldn’t be too far from here, they should be here soon."
Helair yawned indifferently and then smiled as she spoke to the gray-haired Phoenix Clan Leader,
"Master Kehlimuto, they won’t be a problem, we can first discuss the matter of going to the Royal Capital."
"Yes, you are Chun’s friends, and naturally, you are also my friends. Back then, my wife’s father was harmed by the two marquises Wu and Tong, they banished us openly, but secretly had people attack us with little tolerance. If it weren’t for Uncle Chun’s timely intervention, we might have all died on the way. Now that Uncle Chun has requested it, how could we refuse?"
