Chapter 639: 639
"Great! Lucy is going to scold me once she sees the last t.i.tle . "
He didn"t know if the skills or stat increase will apply to the main body but Lucy will definitely not ignore the "s.e.xual fiend" t.i.tle . After spending a few seconds grumbling to himself, Arthur adjusted himself to the short body of the blue-skinned goblin and left his private room . As he is currently disguising himself as the chief guard of the first level, none of the angel guards stopped him, though they didn"t greet him either, indicating that the deceased Buo Buo wasn"t exactly popular amongst these winged beings . Nevertheless, the several hundred million stats he obtained and the Mental Power that increased were nothing to scoff at .
Arthur"s cultivation jumped directly to the late stage of early OverG.o.d Realm, though his real power could content with Exalted G.o.ds . Buo Buo had a power that rivaled a first stage Exalted G.o.ds but, unfortunately, he was still a parasite"s match . Arthur"s incredible stealth and his unparalleled speed allowed him to easily take down the unsuspecting target .
If it was a fair fight, Arthur wouldn"t have been able to defeat the goblin this fast, nonetheless, he would have emerged victorious . The large burst of Natural Lightning he used to take down the Chief Guard cost him more than three billion Nether Energy and ten thousand Mental Power .
Sure, he can use lightning magic without a cost but if he infuses them with Nether energy and Mental Power, its effectiveness drastically increases depending on the cost .
In less than a minute, Arthur appeared before the cell his clone was at . An angel was standing behind him, confused about the goblin"s sudden appearance and unusual behavior, nonetheless, he complied with everything the Chief Guard said .
After opening the cell, the angel was sent away, leaving Vyncent and rest with the goblin, who didn"t look strong but emanated a suffocating aura .
"Oyoyoyoyoyo you four, follow me . "
He pointed at himself, Vyncent, Shen Shen, and the informative Es...o...b..fore turning away and starting walking deeper into the floor . Apart from his shadow clone, the three slightly hesitated before following the blue-skinned goblin . While Vyncent and Esco were feeling threatened and restless, Shen Shen was a bit curious about the Chief Guard, she eyed him with wide eyes .
"How did you do it?!"
She appeared surprised as she walked beside the goblin and asked with an exclamatory voice .
The goblin knitted his bushy brows as he turned his small head toward the blue-haired girl, who didn"t appear scared at all .
"It"s you, right?!"
Shen Shen pointed at the silent shadow clone before uttering those words . This made Arthur surprised, though he didn"t say anything and just waved his hand, causing a nearby empty and small cell to open . It was better to put his clone and his "companions" in an isolated place then shroud it with his magic so that the angel won"t interfere . Soon, they"ll know that the chief guard imprisoned a few prisoners here and they won"t dare question his actions .
Perhaps the only one frightened out of his wits was Esco, who was shaking like a leaf . He was the first person to enter the small cell and choose the farthest corner from the goblin . It took some time for Vyncent to understand the situation, especially after Shen Shen said that .
When all entered the cell, Arthur accompanied them then raised his hand and unleashed a dense fog that plastered itself on the prison bars, making anyone from the outside unable to see a thing .
"How"d you know?"
He looked at the blue-haired girl and asked, sounding genuinely curious . In response, the girl giggled and proudly said: "It"s easy to tell!"
Arthur found her response lacking and not satisfactory .
"Teach me how you do it!"
As she said that, the goblin evilly chuckled before retorting: "I thought I"m a bad guy . "
Shen Shen cutely pouted and said back: "W-well, you still are… but I will consider not telling my parents if you teach me your trick . "
"Oh? Is that so?" A wide grin was displayed on the goblin"s ugly-looking face, in fact, it made him look even more hideous, more than poor Gutcha .
"I can"t teach you because it can"t be taught . "
Arthur gave her an immediate reply which made the girl"s expression a mix of sadness and anger .
"Then you"ll get beaten by my father!"
She sulkily turned around and proceeded to ignore Arthur, who laughed at her behavior before turning around to leave . He was just about to exit the cell only for Vyncent to stop him .
"Wait!"
As Arthur turned to face the youngster, the latter asked: "Why did you come here? What do you plan on doing?"
Vyncent knew that whatever Arthur will do, it"ll cause chaos, after all, that"s what happens whenever he meets him . Whether it"s on Green Leaf or Riarravar, it always happened .
After a brief silence, the goblin said: "I suppose there"s harm telling you . I"m going to help two people escape the prison . "
"W-what!"
An loud gasp escaped Esco"s mouth as he kind of figured the situation but still couldn"t help but become surprised once he heard Arthur"s words . Seeing their eyes fall on him, he coughed a few times and dropped his head, embarra.s.sed and afraid .
"What did I get myself into? I"m doomed! DOOMED!"
Even though he knew Arthur was incredibly strong, what he said was borderlines absurd and unfeasible . The prison was guarded by extremely strong beings like the chief guards and Habs, there"s also the nearby military camp which will respond if anything were to happen . There"s literally no chance to escape this h.e.l.l hole, even a peak Exalted G.o.ds won"t be able to leave .
The last prison break that happened forced the angels to make the security tight and increase the number of powerhouses guarding this place . The very fact that Zaarae is still imprisoned here explains how difficult it is to escape, though Esco or anyone else were unaware that Emir managed to enter and leave the prison unharmed, then again, it"s to be expected as he"s an Archmage and existence that is above Exalted G.o.ds .
After spending a moment of contemplation, Vyncent said with a serious tone: "What of us?"
"What about you?"
"We can"t escape on our own . When you leave, I hope that you"ll help us too . "
Yes, Vyncent and Arthur weren"t particularly close but the former knew that if he asked for help, the parasite wouldn"t turn the other way . Their relations.h.i.+p was strange but Arthur won"t forget that Vyncent did help him and Lucy back on Riarravar, albeit for a short time . Furthermore, he was the one who caused him and Shen Shen to get caught in the first place .
Additionally, despite their constant bickering, it was obvious that Arthur was quite fond of Shen Shen, though he did little to show that . Vyncent didn"t know everything about Arthur but he was well aware that the parasite isn"t amicable to strangers yet he still treated the young girl with kindness and didn"t get angry at her remarks, which gave Vyncent a bit of hope to cling onto . They were unlucky enough to land on this planet and unless they leave the prison, at least, he won"t be able to escape even with the coin"s help .
Elias" coin had a lot of functions and one of them was instantaneous teleportation at a great cost . However, the seal put around and inside the prison rendered him unable to do anything but circulate a bit of his Nether Energy, which isn"t nearly enough to fight, much less use the mysterious artifact .
"As long as you don"t cause any trouble then I see no reason to keep you entrapped here, don"t worry . "
Arthur waved his hand dismissively before leaving the cell . Vyncent sighed and sat on the ground while Shen Shen was still pouting . Seeing that Arthur"s shadow clone dispersed, she turned to the blond young man and asked:
"Hey you! You know him, right? Then tell me how he did that . "
Vyncent wasn"t in the mood to quench the girl"s curiosity but he still replied honestly after glancing at Esco, who also wanted to know what exactly happened .
"He"s a parasite . It shouldn"t be hard for him to possess anything that moves . "
"A parasite? Really?"
Shen Shen was only a bit surprised, she rubbed her chin and looked at the dense fog blocking her view while pondering about something .
******
It was more comfortable to transform into the goblin than possessing its lifeless body so Arthur did just that . He proceeded to the deeper floors and none of the angels or exceptionally few human guards blocked his way . He was getting gazes of disgust and contempt from the winged majestic beings but the humans were surprisingly docile and unresponsive . It didn"t take Arthur long to figure out that Buo Buo had a few subordinates which he secretly dominated using his Slave Imprint . Their freedom was sealed and their will sealed, they were no different than eternally loyal tools which obeyed his orders to the letter even if it means costing their life .
As he didn"t have any use for them now, Arthur ignored them and soon enough, arrived at the fourth floor, which is also the beginning of the second level . From this point onwards, this was the second chief guard"s territory, however, there was no reason any of the other chief guards will interfere unless he did something to provoke them .
Esco previously said that the relations.h.i.+p between the five Chief Guards isn"t exactly harmonious but they weren"t enemies either . The only odd chief guard was the one ruling over the fourth level, he was of a Ratika race, a human that resembled a serpent and someone more seclusive than Buo Buo . It has been decades since he showed himself and is said to be as strong as the chief guard of the fifth level .
The chief guard of the second level is a woman named Fariya . She"s of the succubus race, which surprised Arthur as the succubus race is one of the races ruling the demon realm . Technically, succubus are considered demons so it made no sense for a succubus to be working on angels .
"I guess they don"t care about the race as long as someone works for them . "
"Master, Heaven isn"t only ruled by angels, it just happens that they are numerous, that"s all . Actually, there"s a unique race called Light Demons, which is one of the ten Races managing Heaven, they do look like demons but are absolutely loyal to "G.o.d" . Unlike the Holy Dominion, not everything a.s.sociated with darkness is viewed as evil in this universe . Angels are much more understanding and open-minded, all they care about is to maintain peace and stop the spread of slaughter and maliciousness . "
"What will they think of Dark Magic?"
"I don"t think they would welcome you with open arms . Master"s Dark Magic influences one"s emotions and will so, in more than a way, it can be considered as evil and no different than a devil"s control magic . "
The Quad-spirit paused for ten seconds before saying: "Master, I should you be careful of the succubus . I know that you are immune to beautiful women except for the Madam but a succubus" charm magic is highly effective against men, especially master . You have many b.e.s.t.i.a.l desires obtained from possessing countless monsters so a succubus" seduction may be fatal . "
Arthur chuckled and retorted: "Don"t worry about that . You can even bring me the most devilish and seductive succubus and "it" won"t even get up, I a.s.sure you . It"s not about instincts or desires but a mental problem . "
What he said was none other than the absolute, undeniable truth . Apart from Lucy, he doesn"t get aroused by other women, no matter how heavenly beautiful they are . It must have something to do with his tragic pasts, which made him close-minded . It"s just that Lucy is the sole exception, the only woman he can ever copulate with and make him s.e.xually excited .
The quad-spirit gave no response as it saw Arthur"s certainty . It was useless to try and explain, furthermore, it didn"t doubt its master"s words .
"What brings dear old Buo here?"
A devilish voice entered Arthur"s head, it was soft and pleasant to the ears, unlike the goblin"s . A silhouette materialized a couple of meters in front of Arthur, and in just a few seconds, it became crystal clear .
It was a woman wearing almost no clothes, just something like a black bikini which covered her nipples and lower parts, even her pose was seductive as she crossed her slender arms under her ma.s.sive b.r.e.a.s.t.s while smiling at the goblin .

t.i.tles: s.a.d.i.s.t / Ravenous Hunter / Old Virgin
Short Info : None
The only thing that shocked Arthur was that she"s a virgin, contrary to what her appearance and behavior portray, nevertheless, he didn"t show his shock and behaved normally . Buo Buo is known to be l.u.s.tful so the parasite acted as so, focusing his gaze on her impressive a.s.sets .
"Thank G.o.d Lucy isn"t here…"
His wife would get angry if he stared at another woman so if she were to see what he was currently doing, all h.e.l.l would break loose . He wouldn"t even be surprised if he gets beaten into a pulp then ignored for a whole month . It"s the same thing for him as he didn"t like men getting close to Lucy but as she hates the opposite s.e.x, she tends to distance herself and act coldly toward all men .
