Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 752: Spirit's Nature and Soluna.

Dyrathos looked at the corpse of the demon with a stunned expression, and then his face twisted as he looked at Yasenia. "SLUT! How dare you kill one of my people in front of my eyes!?"

Yasenia looked at him with a questioning gaze. "What do you mean? He came to me first."

Dyrathos shouted as plumes of fire spread around. "Do you think I care!? If you don't kneel and lick my feet while asking for forgiveness, I'm going to make you wish you were dead!"

The faces of the maids behind Yasenia fell as they looked coldly at him. Still, none of them moved.

Yasenia sneered and asked. "What, are you also going to come to me? Demon, don't treat me like a person who doesn't know about your race. If I dare do this, it means I have the confidence to face repercussions." Yasenia squinted as she spat with a low tone. "Filthy creature that only thinks of rape and has egos even bigger than us, dragons. If your race didn't have such a faulty brain, maybe you wouldn't be assaulted by all the other races as if you were a pest."

Dyrathos took a step forward, his aura about to burst, but a slender blue hand grabbed him. "Stop embarrassing us."

The maids who had stealthily moved their hands toward their weapons clicked their tongues in their minds. 'Unlucky.'

Meanwhile, Dyrathos looked back at the female demon with burning rage flaring in his eyes. "Are you going to allow this lizard to walk all over us, Kyril!?"

Kyril, a female bluish demon with a slender figure, black hair, eyes, and a pair of curved ram-like horns, spoke coldly. "Dyrathos, that half-bread incubus is not worth your anger." Her eyes locked with Yasenia's, and she spoke. "Moreover, she wants us to act recklessly."

Yasenia lifted an eyebrow and smiled, not hiding it. "Oh? A demon with a brain? Such a rare exception. It's a shame since I wanted to deal with all of you before the summit."

Kyril answered without a change of expression. "You can stop with those childish remarks and provocations."

Yasenia laughed. "Childish? Will you be able to say the same if I treat you like most male demons treat females from other races?"

One of the other demons shouted, his aura becoming turbulent. "How dare you speak like that to Senior Sister!? Do you want to die, reptile!?"

Yasenia looked at him with disdain. "Pathetic. Do you only have the guts to throw words around? How about you take a step forward and attack me? I pity if you've mated with any female. Those women got the bad luck of meeting a ball-less demon. You also probably have Yang deficiency since such a cowardly male Demon is quite a rare sight."

The male demon only saw red and was ready to pounce, but Kyril's aura exploded with a blackish wind, spreading massive amounts of Death energy into the surroundings as she looked at Yasenia coldly and restrained the about-to-go-crazy demon. "Dragon. Don't go too far."

Unafraid, she continued. "Or what?" Yasenia mocked. "You keep quiet when your slaves, oh, I misspoke, when your companions talk down other creatures. And yet, when it is their turn, you act like a protective hen. Such fragile egos go well with creatures from your race. Bully the weak and fear the strong. If it weren't for your seniors whipping your asses each time you got into trouble, I doubt if the Demon race would even exist nowadays."

Dyrathos spat coldly as he struck a palm toward Yasenia. "Die. [Vulcan Demon Explosion]."

The sky changed colors as a massive red wave swallowed the sky and rushed toward Yasenia. The strength behind the attack was enough to destroy a mountain range.

Yasenia didn't even place the attack in her eyes as she continued looking at the demons.

Selena slithered forward and summoned her large shield. "[Profound Glass Fortress]."

In between the attack and Yasenia, a massive structure appeared, completely blocking the attack in an explosion that sent all the secondary attacks created by the impact flying into the distance.

The heavy attack made Selena slide back for tens of meters, stopping only one meter before Yasenia. The red lamia's eyes were a bit more serious as she evaluated the attack. 'Heavy.'

Yasenia almost didn't even feel the wind created by his attack, but seeing that Selena couldn't stand her ground, her eyebrows raised in surprise. 'Is he strong?'

Selena smiled. 'Don't worry, young miss. I tackled the attack hastily, so I was unable to keep my balance. I'm confident in blocking him perfectly next time.'

Yasenia nodded. 'Then, I'll continue provoking them.'

While they spoke, the defensive formation of the city activated, preventing widespread destruction created by the large wave of magma that scattered after hitting Selena's Glass Fortress.

Yasenia looked at Dyrathos and clapped. "Such a beautiful show. How about you do it a few more times? If you amuse me, I might even consider looking at the Demon race with different eyes."

Kyril asked. "Are you participating in the summit?"

The dragoness looked at her with a disappointed expression. "And here I thought you had a minimum amount of intelligence. Did you think that I came here with exactly the summit's quota for companions to look at the stores of the city?"

Kyril smiled coldly. "Then, watch your back."

Yasenia didn't answer and just smiled. "I really hope you try to attack us before the summit. One less competitor will always be a good thing to have Speaking of which, Divines, the demons are attacking a poor and unprotected creature. Are you not going to stop them?"

Auriel, the white and blue Divine, frowned. "What, are you going to provoke us now, dragon?"

With a wry smile, Yasenia said. "Do I look like someone who goes provoking at will? I was asking how are you all so patient and unactive when you see a few demons acting wild before your eyes." Then, she added. "You see, it's my first time seeing your race, so I thought that you would at least intervene at some point to fight your archenemies." Yasenia smiled. "Sadly, I was disappointed."

Auriel snorted. "If you are seeking death, why should we stop you? We are not your parents."

Yasenia blinked. "You should help because I'm seeking death by provoking demons, perhaps?"

Auriel squinted and was about to speak when something suddenly appeared before Yasenia.

Yasenia saw someone appearing before her before she could realize it, and her pupils constricted as her hands tensed, preparing to tear a life-saving treasure she had prepared beforehand.

However, the creature that appeared before her didn't emanate maliciousness, so she didn't react instantly, looking down at the being that suddenly appeared before her.

The creature that appeared was an empyrean-looking female spirit made of golden and silver flames. The exotic body wrapped in an enchanting dress that portrayed the Sun and the Moon added to her charm. Furthermore, there was a Sun as her right eye's pupil and a crescent moon as her other pupil.

Her entire body radiated the beauty of the firmament.

"Soluna, come back." A female spirit made out of magma, Embera, called her with a soft tone.

However, Soluna continued looking at Yasenia, somewhat mesmerized. She spoke, her voice strangely sounding like two women speaking at once but with a pleasant resonance that made that voice weirdly attractive. "Yasenia, what kind of dragon are you?"

Yasenia looked at the woman more than a head shorter than her with a pondering expression.

Now that she had relaxed from her surprise, she looked closely at her. Yasenia could feel a strange closeness to her, making her confused.

Still, her mind was calm and clear. 'I feel close? Hm Looking at her form Is she a spirit of the Moon and the Sun?'

Yasenia rationalized, and knowing that the spirit probably had no bad intentions, she extended her hand forward and patted her with a smile.

One of the spirit's faces changed as he shouted. "Dragon, stop! Her body is unstable and can create an explosion when others touch her?"

Soluna's eyes widened when she felt Yasenia's hands landing on her silver and gold hair made out of two different fires. 'Huh? She can touch me?'

Even the other five spirits wore incredulous expressions, their eyes comically widening as Yasenia's fingers softly passed through Soluna's hair.

Yasenia answered her with a smile. "I can't answer your question because there are a few bad people who haven't left yet." Yasenia gave a side-eye to the demons. "But I can tell you that we are quite compatible."

Soluna's Sun and Moon eyes squinted as she cautiously moved forward, poking Yasenia with a finger. 'I can touch her?'

When she saw no reaction, she smiled and threw herself forward, hugging the dragoness. 'So nice~. The first person I can touch.'

Yasenia didn't feel any malice, so she didn't dodge. Giving the spirits a friendly nod, she turned toward the other groups and smiled. "Well, it was a fun welcoming. We'll speak again during the main event probably."

Then, she gently pushed Soluna, who was rubbing her face on her chest and laughed gently. "See you later, little one."

Soluna looked at Yasenia's smile dazedly and saw her fly into the floating ship, followed by the 50 maids.

Right after, the dragoness manipulated the large ship and flew into the Ascending Ocean City toward their accommodations. No one stopped her.

Embera, the magma and fire spirit, turned toward the Demons and warned with a seriousness that her usual cheerful and playful self didn't have. "We were going to look from the sidelines, but after our princess's reaction, we will intervene until we discover why she can touch her. Control yourselves."

Kyril gave the spirits one cold look and turned around, guiding her people into the city.

Embera ignored her and looked at the longing clearly expressed in Soluna's eyes with a serious expression. 'How can there exist a creature that can touch the spirit of the Sun and the Moon? Since she represents the purest Yin and Yang, even the slightest touch with foreign energy should make her body react uncontrollably like a chain reaction. And yet, not only did nothing happen, but Soluna's face was one of pure comfort and dependence.'

Free spirits like them were normal creatures that couldn't really reproduce the normal way, so to increase their numbers, they either found places with extreme concentrations of energies and meditated there to create new "free" spirits, or they were naturally born in places with high concentrations of the attributes.

That's why spirits with opposing attributes couldn't usually be born. Natural places where opposing energies resided in a non-chaotic way were so rare that even in the event of a spirit being born, they would die almost instantly because of the conflicting nature in their bodies.

Only Natural Treasures had a chance of maintaining a semblance of a form.

Speaking of which, the difference between a spirit and a Natural Treasure was the time for their birth and the concentration level of the energies. A spirit could be born in 10 to 10,000 years, and the places where they appeared were not as concentrated as the ones where Natural Treasures appeared.

Usually, the place where a Natural Treasure was born was filled with many spirits born from that concentration of energies guarding it.

If a spirit was a concentrated drop of an element with a consciousness, a Natural Treasure was an ocean without a clear mind of its own. The reason they didn't have clear minds was that thoughts would hinder the growth of a Natural Treasure.

They were supposed to be the "essence" of an attribute. Sapient intelligence was not something that would allow a Natural Treasure to understand the profound laws of the Universe better and grow.

Naturally, Spirits could also become extremely strong by cultivating from a "drop" to an "ocean," but it took absurd amounts of time.

Valeria was such a spirit.

Refined from one of the first concentrated spots of Life energy, Valeria grew to become something akin to a Queen for spirits. That's why she can communicate with Natural Treasures, as she did back in the Secret Realm with the Heaven-Born Earth Core.

Why was all of this important? Well, Soluna's existence should have been impossible to manifest as a spirit, but it did.

As with many things, she was an "exception."

A one of a kind. So, the spirits treated her respectfully, even calling her "princess" when she wasn't a real princess.

However, Soluna was relatively young, and she had yet to grow and find a place to increase her strength. Even if Soluna was born as a Fifth Realm creature, meaning that at birth, she had the strength of a Dantian Spiritualization Realm creature, she had not grown since then.

Still, Embera, as well as the other spirits, realized something when Soluna came into contact with Yasenia. Their vision and energy manipulation were exceptional as spirits, so they saw Soluna absorbing the "extra" energy Yasenia released.

Embera thought about that, and a rush of excitement hit her. 'If what I'm thinking is correct, we must protect that dragon at all costs.'

"Soluna, we are entering the city."

Soluna looked at Embera with her exotic Moon and Sun eyes. "Can I meet with Yasenia later?"

Embera smiled softly. "Of course."

Soluna fiddled with her fingers shyly. "D-Do you think we will become a nuisance? I don't want to upset her"

Embera and the other five spirits chuckled. "Don't worry, Soluna. I'm sure she will be delighted to speak with you again."

Soluna's Sun and Moon in her eyes glowed softly. "Really?"

The other spirits nodded with confidence. "With how cute our Soluna is, how could that lizard-."

Soluna interrupted without a change of expression. "Yasenia."

The Earth spirit blinked. "Yes?"

Soluna's smile widened, creating a strangely suffocating atmosphere around her. "Yasenia. That's her name. Do not call her 'lizard.'"

The spirit that was speaking stuttered. "Y-Yes!"

Soluna's tense aura relaxed, and she hummed. "I hope I can see her soon~."

The other five spirits felt their equivalent of cold sweat falling through their backs. 'T-That was scary.'

Even if Soluna was just in the first level of the Fifth Realm, her strength was not to be underestimated.

Meanwhile, inside Soluna's head, Yasenia's gentle smile repeated constantly, making her look at the sky dreamily.
