. So he decided to do the only thing he could to gain time. Pretend to be tough!"f.u.c.k! Water Lady, you"ve pushed me this far. I"ll sacrifice my life for this attack. So let us die together!" shouted out Zhen Shi with an "unbending" resoluteness in his eyes. He had previously shrunk the bow to fit in his palms, and so with his palms held together in front of him, he shouted out, "O GREAT G.o.d OF ALL DRAGONS, SHENRON! I SUMMON YOU!"
Simultaneously, he used the full force of the dragon blood in his body to create the vague figure of a mighty green dragon with dark red eyes and a golden yellow aura. To do this Zhen Shi had to use up a large amount of Qi while complementing the dragon spirit with the opposing energy of the Vermillion Bird.
SHENRON? Why have I never heard of such a Dragon G.o.d? Legends do speak of a dragon G.o.d named Shen Long. Maybe they are related?
Thinking so, Vivienne paused momentarily in suspicion at Zhen Shi"s strange words, but still slowly moved forward, ready to attack the moment she saw Zhen Shi trying to use that shameless skill of his. Seeing her actions Zhen Shi decided to bet everything on his final hope. He moved into a horse-stance like position and brought his two arms back with them holding each other.
"KA-," he shouted slowly releasing the divine aura in the bow as if charging an attack. This time Vivienne felt a hint of fear in her heart as she sensed a G.o.dly aura that could even cause her trouble.
"--MEE HAA MEEE--," shouted out Zhen Shi while continuously increasing the divine aura. This aura combined with the dragon figure and miraculously created the illusion of a true divine dragon!
Zhen Shi was elated at this coincidence while Vivienne had completely paused in fear at this moment. She dared not disturb him as she feared the repercussions of such a "powerful" spell at a close range, and thus waited patiently from a distance.
"--HAA," Zhen Shi finished his shouting as he pushed his hands forward in "attack" and completely let out the divine aura as a concentrated light beam targeted at Vivienne. As luck would have it, the manifestation of the divine dragon coiled around this light beam and moved forwards while letting out a terrifying roar!
Feeling the terrifying aura of the attack and the manifestation of the roaring divine dragon charging at her, this time Vivienne decided to take no chances. She immediately switched into a defensive posture and merged terrifying amounts of water law to form a figure of a beautiful lady wielding a sword and a shield in front of her. This was her current strongest defense; the Lady of the Lake. It could even handle the attack of an early stage Law Wielder!
At the same time, the terrifying divine dragon crashed into the shield. But the terrifying explosion she expected did not arrive. A silent hissing sound as if a balloon was losing air could be heard. Vivienne"s eyes gawked,
◉_◉
as the "terrifying divine dragon" lost all of its majesty in front of her defense and popped like a balloon. After all, it was merely aura and was just a paper tiger.
Vivienne started to shout out in anger, "f.u.c.k! Honourless boy, what was that attack? Is that powerless poof, what your life is worth--?" but immediately stopped as she realized that she had been tricked. She attempted to move forward to stop Zhen Shi, but... it was too late!!
Zhen Shi had already risen into the air when Vivienne was defending. And with the last of his will, he dropped his pants for the second time. "Shaming the Heavens!!" and... Vivienne was frozen in surprise, again.
Zhen Shi was quite happy with himself and was fairly sure that Myne would wake up soon. He was relishing in his victory but... he was suddenly attacked from behind!!
f.u.c.k! When did that p.i.s.s lady get behind me?
Zhen Shi was sent hurtling to the ground and he crashed painfully once again. Although he was attacked, this time surprisingly he had not received much damage. He had also healed himself quite well with the Vermillion Flame. Thinking that Vivienne"s attack failed, he laughed out loud with great confidence!
"HAH--," but he stopped midway as he turned around to see his attacker... It was the now old aged Myne with a confused look on his face.
Myne had finally awoken with his full power in his old body but what awaited him was the same scene he had to witness when he left. His lover being entranced by his brother... So in a bad mood, he had attacked Zhen Shi to get him to stop. But instead of shouting at him in anger... his sworn brother had... laughed!!
Myne was initially confused, but later had a look of pity in his eyes. Could it be.....? That my sworn brother enjoys being hit? Is that why he is covered in blood as well? Ahh... I shouldn"t have hit him and made things worse. He was only helping me after all...
As such, "Ahh, I"m sorry Brother. I truly am..." said Myne with a look of guilt on his old face.
This young brother of mine, he is so kind-hearted and yet has such a side to him... I must make sure to not edge him on any further!
Seeing his guilty and old face Zhen Shi nodded, feeling that Myne had just woken up and had lost control. He too was thinking, This Great Mage of mine is so powerful and yet has a m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.tic side to him. I truly can"t be too mad at him!
And with great feelings of comradery and confused feelings of pity, they looked at each other and smiled.
"Brother Merlin you"re finally awake! I almost died at the hands of this wife of yours!" said Zhen Shi. Myne frantically shook his head and said, "Oi, don"t forget that the name"s Myne! Still, I knew that a brother of mine could survive." Then they turned to look at Vivienne who was grimacing and frowning at this pair of brothers.
"Old man, you and that boy are truly peas of a pod. You"re both as shameless as the other," she muttered while again manifesting the figure of that lady wielding the sword and the shield. "Well, our battle was inevitable. I"ve improved over the years. So let us fight," she shouted out while sending the lady of the lake forward in attack.
Myne nodded, "Very well, Vivienne let me defeat you and free you from the spell you are under!" and sent forth a terrifying law that formed into an hourgla.s.s, easily fending off the attack from the Lady of the Lake.
Zhen Shi looked on with great interest and moved forward to help out Myne with his "G.o.dly" skill. Although formerly embarra.s.sed with using it, he had gotten quite thick-skinned with continuous use. Myne hurriedly turned towards him and said, "Brother what are you doing? Stay back....." But realizing that Zhen Shi had planned to use that skill of his Myne shouted out with great fervor, "Hey, hey! Don"t use that skill anymore. I can take care of this myself. Please..."
Zhen Shi was initially confused but soon realized the matter. Ahh! So even this m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.tic grand mage doesn"t like to become a cuckold! Yes, I should leave my brother his pride.
And thinking so he moved back. Myne nodded in relief and continued his battle.
"Vivienne, I was the one who taught you magic. Do you really think that now at full strength while holding law, I can"t take care of you?" shouted out Myne with great confidence. He manifested thousands of hourgla.s.ses and clocks and sent them forward in attack.
"Old man, you--- I"ll kill you, I"ll slaughter you!!!" shouted out Vivienne while manifesting countless aquatic soldiers herself.
But the hourgla.s.ses surrounded all the manifestations of water along with Vivienne and began to rotate periodically. Amazingly, Vivienne was completely frozen in place unable to move.
This was an abstruse law...the law of time! Next, Myne waved his hand causing the clocks to strike with great power onto Vivienne"s defenseless body.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
With each attack, her indestructible body wavered and shook. Suddenly a strange knot of energy appeared connecting Vivienne and the fountain of youth which was churning furiously. But under the continuous attacks, this knot finally shattered into countless specks of light. Finally freed from the fountain, Vivienne"s aquatic form disappeared revealing a black-haired and beautiful lady. But her face was a confusing kaleidoscope of feelings as it switched between anger, confusion, sorrow, and grief.
Realizing that whatever spell was effecting Vivienne had now weakened, Myne looked at her with pained eyes, wanting to say a million words but unable to... "I...I"m sorry" he finally said. Hearing this Vivienne"s face which had been previously full of confusion paused with a calm look. Vivienne looked at him with a slight smile, "Hush. It was never your fault... I realize that now....." She sighed, "That day... I should have only been suspicious. My actions back then were obviously an over-reaction. Only now do I realize, that my stepmother had been gradually corrupting me with a divine curse. Even you the great mage Merl--Myne, couldn"t have sensed the minute changes under the gradual exposure to a divine curse."
SHIET! My bulls.h.i.t was actually correct!! HAHA, this is what it means to be a true SCHOLAR. System you should learn from yours truly!!
System: "...."
Still, Zhen Shi listened to this tragedy in silence. He knew that divine curses were the polar opposite of divine blessings. They were a one strike attack that could be used by clans and kingdoms with divine totems of a patron G.o.d. The more powerful the divine curse the longer it would take to obtain it. But when used they bring out the terrifying intent of G.o.ds which simply cannot be blocked by non-divinities. Even Law Wielders would be powerless in the face of a powerful divine curse.
Vivienne coughed and collapsed on to the floor but Myne immediately went and caught her. Vivienne smiled again, "Myne---That name, it suits you," and continued with her tale, "It seems that my mother Diana had positioned me in your kingdom"s court for the express purpose of weakening your king. When she learned of our relationship, she had begun to use the divine curse to slowly plant seeds of doubt in my heart regarding us. And finally led me to seal you here with your own spell... I"m sorry. If only I had believed in you... maybe I could have fought off the divine curse.."

Myne"s old eyes glistened with tears, "No, no... it was never your fault. I too am to blame. Always believing you had simply betrayed me..." But he didn"t get to say much further, as Vivienne now hurriedly freed herself from Myne and shouted out, "f.u.c.k you, old man! You betrayed me. I"ll kill you!" She gathered some law and punched out.....but her fist lost that energy almost immediately as she collapsed on to Merlin"s lap soon after.
Myne looked at her with sorrow and whispered, "Brother, Vivienne is still being influenced by the divine curse. I believe I have a chance of healing her. But I will have to give up my Law of time. My cultivation will be damaged--- But for her, I"m willing to do so. I hope you can look over us while I heal her. And if we fail I hope you can be there to witness our final moments."
Zhen Shi frowned. He didn"t want his "grand mage" to die. No matter what, he had enjoyed his time with Myne and had no wish to say goodbye so soon.
As such, "Brother Myne can you spare me a moment? I might be able to help you out," said Zhen Shi. Myne was surprised but nodded with great satisfaction regards this brother of his.
Zhen Shi checked his status and noted, Otaku Points: 155. This was his highest collection of OP yet.
"System how much for the random divine boon? " he asked.
Ding!
A random divine boon is set at the general price of 100 OP.
"Alright, System how much more if I want to specify something. As in something or anything that could heal Vivienne or increase their chances of survival?"
Ding!
The user can add that as a single requirement to the random divine boon for 50 OP.
"YES!! System do that. Grant me a divine boon with that requirement," Zhen Shi shouted out mentally.
Ding!
Divine boon gained.
Once again that familiar piece of white paper appeared. But this only said,
~IOU~
Zhen Shi paid no heed to it as he immediately said, "System use it up."
The piece of paper disappeared. Zhen Shi was worried that this divine boon too would take a long time but he was worrying for no reason. This was because the divine boon arrived almost immediately.
As such, he immediately accepted the system"s notification confirming the arrival of his divine boon.
But, a multi-colored and square-shaped object appeared within Zhen Shi"s vision causing his face to gawk.
He had been hoping to surprise Myne with a G.o.dly healing pill or unbelievable skill. But now.... he felt like flipping a table....scratch that, he wanted to flip two tables!!!
┻━┻ ︵ヽ(`Д´)ノ︵ ┻━┻
f.u.c.k! Zhen Shi once again looked at the item he had received, just to make sure his eyes weren"t being deceived. This item was.... one of those old fashioned and bulky Boom Boxes! To maek things worse it was one of those multi-colored eye-blinding old ones.
SHIET!! System, what am I supposed to do with this? Am I supposed to heal Vivienne with a mix-tape of G.o.dly music? Or am I supposed to let them dance at the last moments of their life?
Ding!
Congratulations to the user for obtaining a DIVINE BOOMBOX!
