Chapter 48 Kaiya
"Goddess, you!" Ciel couldn't help but be angry at the Ice Goddess's actions.
It wasn't like he felt anything that Luca died, but he was upset that the Ice Goddess was acting against his will. To him, it was as if she was not under his control, an uncomfortable feeling because basically if she was not under his control, she could practically bring him to his doom.
"What?" The Ice Goddess responded with haughty eyes, as if she didn't care. And she seemed satisfied with that because she could suppress Ciel.
Before Ciel could say anything more, the Elf Queen chimed in, "let's go now, and forget all that nonsense!"
At the same time, Mu Yixue nudged Ciel's hand, as if telling him not to continue resisting.
This time, Ciel chose to forget about it.
"Let's go," he said to the two women.
Right after he said that, the Ice Goddess suddenly said, "just you, the others don't need to!"
Her words instantly made Mu Yixue who wanted to take a step freeze, and pressed her lips together.
However, she was also quite calm. In a low voice, she said to Ciel, "go, I'm afraid I'll only be a nuisance because my strength is not enough to go to the Pole of Hell."
Of course, if the Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen helped protect her, it wouldn't matter at all, but it seemed that they didn't plan to do that.
Mu Yixue was naturally helpless.
Ciel sighed, although he wanted to defend her, but he thought that this was indeed not the right time because this was his training business, something very important.
He finally nodded in response and said, "you stay here, wait for me to come back!"
"Speaking as if this palace is yours, hmph!" The Ice Goddess replied with a cold snort.
"This is my palace now, and your room is my room," Ciel replied, not hiding his thoughts, instantly making the Ice Goddess' breathing quicken again.
Fortunately, the Elf Queen held her hand hurriedly, helping her to calm down with her Life Energy.
"Come on!" She waved her hand, causing light to emanate momentarily and envelop Ciel's body.
When the Elf Queen stepped out of the palace, Ciel's body moved on its own, following the blonde woman.
And as it turned out, they instantly appeared deep in the sky.
Whoosh!
The Ice Goddess appeared behind Ciel, staring at his back with her cold eyes.
Unfortunately, Ciel was really not affected at all.
The Elf Queen then stepped to the North.
With one step, the enormous Ice Continent instantly disappeared from Ciel's sight. Even with the power of the Eyes of Heaven, he could not see it anymore, showing how far away they were now, perhaps equivalent to traveling to the Fire Mountain Continent.
Here, the temperature was really very cold. Ciel would have shivered to death if he hadn't been protected by the Elf Queen's power.
Snow was falling all the time, and many of them were as big as hills.
They weren't blocks of ice and such, but really snow.
Ahead, Ciel saw a boundless mist, filled with snow birds.
Their voices echoed loudly, as if warning whoever came that there was great danger ahead.
In fact, Ciel saw many arks flying below, not only those from the Ice Continent, but also other continents.
Despite the danger, the far north was indeed a place with a lot of luck.
Of course, following the Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen meant that no harm would come to Ciel.
The two women took another step, leading him into that boundless mist.
Instantly, Ciel heard a buzzing sound around him, so loud that it seemed like the air was vibrating.
Actually, the sound was coming from the air that was indeed too cold.
Below, Ciel saw an infinite land of ice, a land that was changing all the time.
How could it not be, there were ice storms everywhere and each storm moved mountains, even many giant ice monsters there, from bears to ice lions.
They had great strength, their roars could frighten the Hegemons.
The Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen didn't stop there, they went deeper.
And the deeper they went, Ciel found that the sky became very dark.
The world felt very gloomy while below he saw very terrifying abysses.
Each one gave the impression of a soul-eating demon's mouth.
Right after arriving there, the Ice Goddess suddenly waved her hand.
Rumble!
It instantly caused the air to tremble and the surrounding mist to be swept aside.
In an instant, the environment cleared and it reached the sky so that sunlight easily reached the land here.
The sudden change startled all the beasts below, they stared upwards, and instantly trembled as they saw the figure of the Ice Goddess.
It seemed that they were already very familiar with her.
"Cryyy!!!" Suddenly, an eagle's voice resounded loudly from a distant corner.
Right after that, a black eagle appeared there.
It was about 20 meters long while its two wings were even longer.
Despite its black color, it emitted an extremely powerful cold aura, even the kind of cold that seemed to be able to freeze the soul directly.
Its destination was clearly the place where Ciel and the others were.
And as it got closer to them, the eagle shrank and its shape began to change.
When it arrived in front of Ciel and the others, it transformed into the figure of a young woman wearing a long black dress that was covered.
She was very beautiful with pale white skin while her hair and eyes were a dark black color, as if she came from a world where ice was created due to the absence of light.
"Greetings master!" She bowed and saluted the Ice Goddess.
Ciel showed an interested expression.
He had asked Mu Yixue about the other Ice Goddess disciples, so he knew who this woman was.
Her name was Kaiya, the third disciple of the Ice Goddess who was now a Third Stage Hegemon.
She was of an extremely rare eagle race, the Divine Night Snow Eagle, a Divine Beast with great potential to become a God.
Although her basic power is ice, her main skill is killing. It is said that her killing skills are unrivaled in the Seven Realms, with few equaling her.
Surprisingly, after saluting the Ice Goddess, she also saluted Ciel.
"Kaiya greets you, Your Highness the Prince. I apologize for not being able to visit you personally."
Ciel, "..."
Ice Goddess, "..."
