Chapter 524 A Very Troublesome Lady Has Awakened
“N-No! Don’t! Forgive me! Please! Spare me!”” A witch cried out in horror when she found herself surrounded by hundreds of Fairies, whom she and her group had been killing mercilessly a few hours ago.
A broken token laid on the palm of her hands, and she was holding onto it so tightly that her hands were already bleeding.
The moment she realized that there was no hope for escape, she broke the token that would allow her to teleport back to Westshire.
But, to her utter shock and horror, nothing happened even after the token broke in her hand.
“Nooooooooo!” This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
The woman shrieked as countless water spears pierced through her body, dying while being held over the water.
“Ahhhhhhhhh!”
The pain was simply too much for her to bear, but the Fairies around her all giggled, bringing her to the edge of despair.
“When our sisters pleaded, did you spare them?” one of the Fairies, whose eyes were glowing crimson, asked coldly. “In your eyes, we were nothing but insects that you can crush. But, now that our Queen is here, it is time for all of you to atone for your sins.”
“And that atonement is none other than a slow, and painful death~” another Fairy added before summoning a water sword, which stabbed on the young lady’s thigh, making her scream in pain.
It was not only her who was screaming.
Her teammates, who made her feel as if they were unstoppable, were suffering the same fate.
All the Fairies were slowly but surely killing them and relishing every second of it.
After receiving their Queen’s Blessing, their powers had increased exponentially, making them four times stronger than they were in the past.
The Wizards and Witches realized this too late when their spells, which had killed countless Fairies in the past, were easily dispelled.
What followed next was a one-sided beating that forced them to bring out their tokens and break them to escape.
But, with Celestia’s power encompassing the entire world, not a single thing would be able to enter or leave without her permission.
Another round of cheers and giggles reverberated in the air as the Fairies continued to torture their foes, making the pitiful Wizards and Witches regret their earlier act of antagonizing the Water Fairies, who were just defending their home from invaders.

Somewhere in the Legacy Domain...
“Just allow yourselves to be captured,” a Water Fairy said after sealing several Elves and Wood Fairies in a bubble of water, preventing them from escaping.
Ethan, who also sensed danger ahead of them, nodded in agreement.
“Nika, do you know any good places to hide in these parts?” Ethan asked.
The High Pixie nodded. “I know a place with clusters of tall water grasses. We can hide there.”
Although she didn’t say it out loud, Nika also felt that something had gone terribly wrong, and the thought made her skin crawl.
All Water Fairies were somehow connected to each other, and the prickling sensation that she was feeling made her feel fearful.
Everyone was in agreement that they shouldn’t do anything reckless until they heard the full story from Aria, who was currently unconscious.
It was at that moment when Lyall and Conall heard a faint, blood-curdling scream in the distance, making their faces turn solemn.
“Let’s go,” Ethan said. “This place is no longer safe.”
Nika nodded and flew in the direction where the tall grasses of the Wetlands were located.
They would hear distant screams from time to time as they headed toward their destination, making them increase their pace.
As they were traveling to their destination, Ethan manipulated the water around them and created countless fishes that were only three inches long.
‘Find my teammates and see what is happening around us,’ Ethan ordered his creations. ‘Go!’
After transforming into a Salmon, the young man was starting to understand the abilities he possessed in his current form.
Using his Origin Magic, Mimir’s Wisdom, Ethan’s mental and spiritual powers had gone beyond the norm, allowing him to create countless spies that were fully under his control.
What he didn’t know was that someone from Midgard was watching everything that was happening inside the domain and found it quite amusing.
‘To think I would be able to see such an entertaining event from far away. Marking that boy was worth it.’
Seated on his throne, the King of Fairies, Oberon, smirked as he gazed at the Salmon with a mischievous glint in his eyes.
“Celestia huh?” Oberon chuckled. “A very troublesome lady has awakened. Now, what are you going to do, little Salmon?’
The King of Fairies couldn’t stop himself from smiling because all of this was simply too entertaining for him.
He wasn’t the least bit worried even if Celestia were to return to the world. After all, she was his kin, and neither of them would do anything to hurt each other’s interest.
