Chapter 764: Going Outside to visit Ascending Ocean City.
Yasenia looked at her small baby and asked with a smile. "So, Flame and Kaleina want to take a walk outside?"
Kaleina smiled widely. "Yes! I want to see the city!"
Flame, sitting by Kaleina's side, also nodded shyly.
Yasenia nodded, thoughtful. "What do you all think? Would there be any problems?"
Valeria commented. "If they want to, why not? You haven't been gathering strength to turtle in here until the summit starts, right?"
Yasenia shook her head. "Well, that's true. However, with how I acted against the Demons the first day, I'm sure that they and the Continental Shadows will target us. I'm sure that there are spies waiting outside, ready to inform the moment we get out. That's why I'm slightly hesitant. After all, if they want to see a city, can't we just make a trip after we return? We can travel stealthily and avoid any problems that may arise."
The dragoness explained her thoughts, and the others pondered.
Mirrory commented. "There shouldn't be any problems protecting them with the strength of your maids. Moreover, you are assuming that all the groups will attack you with everything they have. Remember what we taught you? Excess carefulness about something is sometimes as bad as excessive recklessness. Evaluate the situation objectively, Yasenia."
Yasenia looked at Mirrory, and the ancient mirror smiled. "Close your eyes and ponder what you would do if our group were a group of sect members instead of us. Not without reason, but you are now being a bit overzealous about protection."
Closing her eyes for a second while slowly feeling Tatyana's body between her arms, Yasenia sighed. Looking down, she saw Tatyana looking up at her with a smile. "Do as you please, Little treasure. It's not like today is the only chance to visit."
Yasenia placed one hand on her stomach and asked. "Can you even fight?"
Tatyana wanted to roll her eyes, but knowing that Yasenia was just being protective, she laughed. "I still can beat you up without placing the child in any danger."
Yasenia smiled. Then, after pondering in her head, she nodded. "Well, the only ones I should worry about are the Divines, Demons, and Humans. Beasts and Undead are suppressed in front of us because of Tatyana and me. Moreover, Divines don't seem like a proactive race, while humans will be low-key for now. So, the only problem with the foreign races are Demons, who probably won't act by themselves after we killed one of them so easily."
The dragoness titled her head, further analyzing. "Then, the chances of any other group acting up are very low. With the summit around the corner, all powers have gathered in this city. If someone sticks out, they will get hammered quickly. While we might lose a bit of unity from low-ranked powers in the Astral Sky Alliance because of the foreign races spreading information about Spiritual Path knowledge, making our terms much less enticing, it's not like the important allies are with us only because of that."
Andrea chuckled. "Which mean?"
Yasenia nodded. "It's not impossible."
Evelyn asked. "What about spirits?"
The dragoness commented while scratching her cheek. "I somehow feel that they are not a problem."
Andrea laughed at the rare uncertain expression on her dragon lover's face. "Any reasons for that?"
The dragoness shook her head, a bit embarrassed. "Just a feeling. I can't give you an explanation. It's like I just know. I know that relying on such vague feelings is not what we should do, but I think I can trust these feelings in this situation."
Tatyana, Mirrory, and Valeria looked at her with interest.
Tatyana muttered, asking the other two. "Is it that Spirit the reason?"
Valeria nodded. "Most probably. That child has a lot in common with Yasenia."
Mirrory hummed. "A Sun and Moon spirit is already rare enough. This situation probably hasn't happened in a while."
Tatyana smirked. "If you say a while, it must be a few million years."
Mirrory snorted, crossing her arms and legs as she sat midair. "So what?"
Tatyana laughed. "Nothing. I was just admiring your antiqueness."
Mirrory's lips arched. "Do you want a fight?"
Tatyana grinned from Yasenia's embrace. "Do you dare attack me?"
Mirrory lifted an eyebrow. "Why wouldn't I dare?"
Tatyana smiled provocatively. "I'm pregnant, am I not?"
Mirrory's eyebrow twitched. While she had never been pregnant, she understood the importance of such an event for living creatures.
Evelyn tilted her head. "Yes."
The girls laughed, and Alaia commented with a smile. "I've also sensed a few looks directed at you, Lady Evelyn."
Evelyn coughed and straightened, trying to look more dignified while her violet eyes looked around stealthily. Then, she caught a middle-aged man looking at her, making their eyes cross. Seeing the man turn sideways with an embarrassed expression, Evelyn's mouth arched. "Oh! You are right
Our girls laughed again. Yasenia asked teasingly. "Who are you trying to impress, Dear? Such a nice walking posture~."
Evelyn's face became red, and she stuttered. "I Um It's rare for me to receive these eyes, okay!? Let me bask in this unusual glory!"
Yasenia used her tail to caress her cheek with a tender smile. "Didn't I say to you in the past that Dear is also very charming? Be more confident, Dear."
Evelyn nodded shyly. "Thanks."
Angel pointed at the side. "Yasenia, can we enter that shop?"
The dragoness turned toward it and saw a sign that read [Heavenly Crafted Formations! The Best of the best!].
Seeing the clearly exaggerated shop name, Yasenia's eyebrow twitched. However, since her baby wanted to go, then she had nothing to say. "Sure. Let's take a look."
Their group turned and walked toward that shop. Selena and Alaia stood at the entrance, summoning their weapons, and the rest entered together.
Once inside, they entered a shop with extremely luxurious-looking shelves and displays. The dragoness's nose twitched, trying to find a powerful treasure, but nothing caught her senses. 'As expected, a fraud.'
A sleazy middle-aged man of a dog race came with a wide smile as his eyes couldn't help but roam her body lustfully. "O-Oh! Beautiful fairies, what do I honor the pleasure of your esteemed presence in my humble shop?"
Yasenia looked down at him, as she was a head taller, and commented indifferently. "Why would I be here other than to look for formations and formation materials? Guide me to your best merchandise. I don't have a lot of time."
The middle-aged man's smile faltered at Yasenia's blunt attitude, but looking into the heavy golden slit eyes, he swallowed his dissatisfaction. 'Tsk, acting high and mighty while wearing such slutty clothes. I'll show you!'
"Of course, come this way, beautiful fairy."
Yasenia spoke as she followed behind. "Save the flattery. It's uncomfortable."
The man nodded a few times and guided Yasenia to the back of the shop. Yasenia looked around the mostly empty and large room with a raised eyebrow, but she didn't comment.
Angel also looked around, making a puzzled expression.
Once inside, the man laughed as his energy sank into the floor and a large formation activated. "Bitch! Now you are mine! Hahaha!"
Yasenia sighed and looked at Angel. "Baby, this is what happens when you enter shady places. Look, we are now surrounded by a low-level Earth Rank [Imprisoning Formation]."
Angel looked up at Yasenia and nodded. "I see."
The man, confused at their calm appearance, shouted. "You bitches, what are you talking about so calmly!? Now that you are here, not even an mid-level Ethereal Soul powerhouse can escape."
Yasenia looked at Kaleina's confused face and smiled. "What are you thinking, Kaleina?"
Kaleina blinked her large golden eyes and asked innocently. "Um Mommy, weren't dog human beasts an intelligent race? Why is he acting like that?"
The girls who wore indifferent faces burst into laughter. Yasenia patted her head. "There are all types of people in the World. Imagine that you came here alone, love. What would've happened?"
Kaleina's eyes widened. "Oh no! I would be trapped!"
Yasenia leaned down and kissed her snout. "That's right. That's why you must always move with a maid or one of us when we are outside, okay? Flame, this is also a lesson for you."
Flame and Kaleina nodded.
"Okay, Mommy."
"I understand, Aunty Yasenia."
Yasenia looked at the man who was looking at them while sweating coldly and smiled. "Now, do you prefer to kill yourself or be captured by us?" Yasenia's lips arched further as she laughed. "This is a one-time offer for helping me teach my daughter a lesson."
