Chapter 636: Blessing
"..."
"[Hidden Azanroth], we beg for your pity and help, beg you to use undetectable power to form a barrier for us, isolating everything from the past outside."
Within the boundless golden ocean, Fisher seemingly hazily heard an unrecognizable bizarre voice from within. That speaking voice was exactly like many, many mouths speaking together, pieced together using strange and odd languages. Even if wanting to understand it was also seemingly like tearing apart the consciousness of living beings.
Just not knowing why, Fisher was actually able to understand the meaning of that voice. But he was more like a bystander like that, listening to this story that might have already happened.
He even suspected whether that was a voice or not, because seemingly this wasn't heard by his own "ears", or perhaps nose, or perhaps mouth?
He didn't know. His consciousness only awakened bit by bit, then couldn't help but feel curious towards the source of that voice, then wanted to find out the truth. He opened his eyes looking towards the direction the voice transmitted over. The golden light weakened bit by bit. Very quickly, a pitch-black, dark and gloomy abyss filled with seawater then abruptly plunged into Fisher's eyes.
"Gulu lu~"
Exactly at the bottom of that nameless darkness, seemingly right now had some kind of thing slowly wriggling, but even with Fisher's eyesight it was also unable to see through His form.
Right now, within his hazy consciousness curiosity acted up, unexpectedly wanting to further observe that existence at the bottom of the abyss. But the next second, from below actually suddenly surged out countless bubbles. Arriving concurrently was also a sound exactly like a helpless sigh of a certain charming young girl, She complained,
"Fisher...""Ramastia?"
Within Fisher's murmurs, countless bubbles yet abruptly surged up, wrapping his consciousness, wrapping his everything up, churning and flying upwards. Leaving the dark abyss returning to the [Reality] above the abyss, then continuously ascending within reality returning to the Ocean Trench, then from the Golden Palace inside the Ocean Trench returning onto the sea surface, then ultimately returning to Naris, returning to a certain place underground of the Cathedral.
"Gulu lu!!"
Fisher abruptly sat up his body with one move, his consciousness abruptly withdrawing from that darkness. He was exactly like someone pulled up after drowning like that having difficulty breathing. Amidst coarse panting, from his nostrils and mouth continuously seeped out seawater, until vomiting entirely clean everything within the lungs only then barely alleviating over,
"Cough cough cough!!"
He unbelievably touched his own neck, but right now there was entirely bare. Originally that was exactly the place the tentacle the Demi-Human Girl Con gave him parasitized.
But right now, besides his Adam's apple there was actually nothing, exactly like everything that happened just now was entirely merely a dream...
"Du du?"
But the next second, a golden tentacle actually pretty and charmingly drilled out from within his clothes. The golden vortex rotating every moment and every second upon the tender and smooth surface then proved everything just now was absolutely not a dream.
"?!"
Fisher even thought Little Fisher turned into that tentacle, scaring him breaking out in cold sweat almost jumping up. But carefully inspecting a bit, he only then discovered this tentacle actually had been continuously tangled upon his body just now, merely not knowing why just now he didn't discover it.
Exactly what is this thing?
Fortunately, this time within the Demi-Human Girl Con's home she finally didn't leave suspense letting Fisher guess blindly anymore.
The Demi-Human Girl Completion Manual beside right now also flashed golden light flying back beside Fisher, floating illusory texts before his eyes,
【Congratulations, you obtained "Azanroth's Hidden Blessing"】
【Contributor's Note: The gods of creation prepared everything for creating the world, even unconsciously committing the capital sin of "stealing". And before officially beginning, They also begged a hidden powerful existence for a blessing, begging Him to use mighty power to shelter the fragile new world about to be born, isolating the newborn it from everything in the past. "The Ultimate" was thereby born, isolation thereby existed. Right now, the beauty of the past has already passed away along with the shattering of the barrier. The past the gods feared is also about to make a comeback due to the sins They committed, causing everything to head towards a ruined ending.】
【When passively activated: The power of Hidden will, when you finish reading the entire contents of a certain Completion Manual, help you isolate the mighty power of the source of chaos, in order to avoid you suffering its direct influence.】
【When actively activated: Speaking the designated slogan towards Azanroth's avatar can activate the Hidden's blessing. During the survival process of the blessing, you will fall into the state of "Specific Hidden", you will be unable to be discovered by chaos and gods, won't be influenced by powers aside from direct Authority. As a price, during the Hidden process you will "revert to an ordinary person", you will be unable to use any transcendent powers including magic. This process will last for a randomized time, unable to be actively turned off.】
【Small Tip 1: Exhibit your capabilities, build a good relationship with the cute Azanroth avatar, this will have some help towards your usage of the active blessing.】
【Small Tip 2: Imagine a bit, what will happen when a person continuously watching you suddenly cannot see you anymore?】
The golden light of the Demi-Human Girl Completion Manual dissipated bit by bit, making Fisher who read entirely all of this couldn't help but let out a long breath.
This is truly, an extremely powerful blessing.
He was unable to imagine, exactly how exaggerated an existence a blessing even gods were unable to discover you was. No wonder that Demi-Human Girl Con could jump around lively like this for several thousand years, still evidently reading various Completion Manuals, knowing the secrets of the World-Ending Prophecy while the people from the Creator's Society actually knew nothing regarding her. Originally it was this reason.
Previously when he confronted Soul Chaos, although before Helaire he forced himself to act calm, but actually ah in his inner heart he was clearer than anyone. If not for the source of Soul Chaos not making a move against him, he extremely likely truly would have died entirely in the process of accommodating Soul Chaos. But right now possessing Azanroth's blessing then could only face the chaos entering the world instead of their source.
Have to say, the things the Demi-Human Girl Con left behind indeed exceeded his expectations, even to the extent formlessly actually dispelled some of the hesitation towards his own duty within his inner heart.
He blinked his eyes, again looking towards this golden tentacle entangled upon his body blankly looking at himself beside, temporarily exchanging glances with it, entirely forgetting actually it didn't have eyes.
Therefore, this actually is exactly Azanroth's avatar?
This tentacle... is really cute?
Did the Demi-Human Girl Con like demi-human girls so much she became possessed by the devil, not even letting go of tentacles?
"..."
"Du du!!"
Fisher clearly didn't say anything at all, merely thinking like this in his heart. But the golden tentacle before his eyes actually exactly like suddenly reading his thoughts like that, puffing its cheeks angrily twisting its own body a bit, even the spinning golden vortex above became restless, dangerous exactly like a rattlesnake like that.
"... Actually it's still a tiny bit cute."
Fisher opened his mouth, suddenly saying so.
And the trembling tentacle also thereby came to an abrupt end, conversely tilting its own tentacle's end, looking at Fisher, while "du du"-ing while seeming to say,
"Really?"
"... Mmn."
Fisher bit the bullet saying so. And he also didn't know whether this tentacle actually found it useful or not. Anyhow, it again wobbled its own head tangling back onto Fisher's body again, just exactly like a delicate and tender little cutie like that, merely seemingly when tangling onto his body appearing somewhat sticky and greasy exactly.
And very quickly, accompanying it entering within his own clothes, that sticky and greasy feeling also instantly disappeared. Because opening it again, you already couldn't discover its traces anymore.
Therefore to say, exactly what is that password to use its blessing?
Fisher stood his body up, while wondering, while lastly sizing up a glance at the surroundings again. But obviously, everything here had already been entirely taken away by him. And the Demi-Human Girl Con herself had already left for a long time, not knowing whether she was actually dead or what...
Next, it can only rely entirely on himself.
He lifted his footsteps preparing to walk out of this room. But when his footsteps reached the doorway, he yet suddenly remembered that Easter Egg of the Demi-Human Girl Completion Manual.
Although he didn't know exactly what meaning that so-called proverb had, but solely from the literal meaning of Naris Language to understand, it exactly said a dragon's child is a dragon, a phoenix's child is a phoenix...
Then, exactly what is considered a mouse's child?
Exactly at this moment, he seemingly suddenly then realized what exactly that so-called password was.
Thus, he softly said,
"ma."
The next second, accompanying the correct password being spoken out, his body also suddenly bursted out bizarre golden resplendent light. Within the dense aura of extremely terrifying power, within the eyes of gods and chaos, that existence named "Fisher Benavides" then instantly disappeared without a trace.
"Ahhhh, are you trying to scare me to death right?! Exactly where did you pop out from?"
Outside the Cathedral right now, Eimhart on Fisher's shoulder was flustered and exasperated continuously using his head to bump him. And Fisher obviously also was somewhat not knowing whether to laugh or cry, having no choice but to use his hand to block his actions. But compared to the relaxed and carefree manner under the blessing of Mythic Rank power, using human power was actually still quite difficult to imitate Eimhart's "barbaric collision".
No wonder at the time within the Wutong Tree even Erwind failed to snatch the Death Rune before his face.
"It's you being overly cautious over there therefore didn't notice me coming out right?"
"Your mother, I've been watching all along okay? How could I possibly have not noticed."
Fisher gave a slight smile neither agreeing nor disagreeing. Silently storing the cheekily puffed Eimhart well hidden within his own embrace.
Actually he was merely experimenting with the blessing he just obtained. The description says it is effective towards gods and the source of chaos, but actually it also had effects towards other existences.
Exactly like ever since he came out from within the Cathedral, at the beginning he was still acting stealthily. But because when activating the Hidden state he was unable to use transcendent power, his senses were entirely a world of difference from previously. Therefore he actually temporarily didn't discover the patrolling church officials.
Resulting in, even if Fisher walked passed before him he entirely didn't discover anything amiss.
But Eimhart actually merely after a brief stagnation then discovered his existence. This made Fisher deduce, whether there was a possibility the judgment of this hidden state was determined based on the relationship between himself and the observed target.
Just exactly like his relationship with Eimhart was very close, therefore even if Fisher stealthily went to scare him he was still discovered by him; conversely, the remaining Nari People even if himself reached out his hand waving before them they actually all turned a blind eye.
Moreover this kind should have no relationship with the high or low of ranks. Just now he already encountered quite a few rather high-ranked demi-humans from the Northern Border, primarily the Cangniao-zhong from the Sardin Woman's Country, they seemingly also knew absolutely nothing regarding Fisher's existence. Still quite interesting. Fisher even extended his hands itchily wanting to attempt triggering the freezing magic inside the cabinet of the bakery by the roadside. Resulting in himself exactly having an anti-magic constitution like that fundamentally having not the slightest bit of use at all, even to the extent the freezing magic couldn't make him feel cold anymore...
Truly interesting.
But Eimhart actually didn't feel like this. Him hiding in Fisher's embrace even somewhat nervously swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Experiencing the matters along this way, he even to the extent produced a suspicion within his brain, then Fisher began to wonder in surprise,
"Fi... Fisher, could it be you already died inside that what's-it underground tomb right? Then the one coming out right now is actually your ghost. Because you are truly too lecherous, therefore only then harboring this kind of grudge, wanting to walk randomly on the street, later still needing to go harass ladies and so on... Could it be I also turned into a ghost? No way, I must fly out to confirm a bit whether other people can discover me..."
"Are you stupid? I merely obtained a bit of help from there, look at these along the way I wasn't discovered by anyone. This has help towards my subsequent Naris itinerary... whether is it towards searching for manuals or Elizabeth's side. You do not have such help. Hiding in my embrace then can hide yourself away, understand?"
Fisher sighed pressing the Eimhart who was about to run out back inside his own embrace again. This kind of blessing cannot be shared. Previously Eimhart continuously bumped his head inside the Cathedral, he deduced exactly his flying bumping sounds attracted that group of patrolling church officials over.
"Heavens, I feel we like this are exactly like mice in the gutter... but it's also true, when the time comes entering your teacher's funeral wouldn't need to worry about the world-shaking great battle between you and Elizabeth making the funeral a complete mess."
"... Hopefully."
If according to Fisher's previous deduction, besides gods, the closer the relationship with himself the easier to discover himself. Then Elizabeth probably could see him within minutes right.
But Eimhart was right, at least at Teacher Helson's funeral he didn't hope chaos would occur, that was the very end before teacher left...
"Then we will set off going to your teacher's hometown right now? That what's-it... Chitel City."
"Mmn, we will set off immediately."
"But here doesn't look like the direction to the station..."
"Indeed so."
Fisher brought Eimhart strolling along on the streets all the way. Until walking into a familiar area of low and small bungalows. Here seemingly didn't have too huge changes from the past, besides the Cardinals flying in the sky and the newly built street lamps before the doors such infrastructures...
He very quickly paused before a small house possessing three floors, subsequently quietly gazing at the house plate outside the fence,
"Ms. Martha..."
He didn't enter. Because right now, even if he was under the envelope of Hidden unable to use transcendent powers, he still sharply perceived on the streets all around there were some faint, barely there lines of sight paying attention over here. Seemingly exactly waiting for who to push open the door to enter, to meet that old woman inside.
If it was Ms. Martha, definitely could equally see him.
But right now was exactly in the afternoon. According to normal times, at this time she should exactly be taking an afternoon nap instead.
He gently vaulted over the low and small fence. Standing inside the extremely small courtyard of the house peering through the glass window looking at the structure inside he couldn't be more familiar with. Very quickly then saw Ms. Martha currently lying on the rocking chair resting. He gazed inside for a long time. Then again paced arriving at the other end of the courtyard, here was the place she planted cabbages in the past.
But right now the soil here was completely filled with weeds. Only sparsely had several cabbage roots that hadn't been harvested being placed within it.
Fisher remained silent for a moment. Walking beside that small field, picking up the sickle placed here not knowing for how long. Subsequently taking off the coat, lowering his body cutting the weeds grown out inside. The area of this field wasn't large, his actions were also very fast. Thus very quickly, all the weeds within the edges of that location were entirely cut down by him, thrown in an area placed neatly and orderly.
Subsequently, he only then gently threw the sickle handle grasped fiery hot by his palm at the side. Took several deep breaths, picked up the coat falling to the ground beside.
When leaving, once again looking towards inside the house. Upon the rocking chair, Martha who was already nearing her octogenarian years was still drowsy, enjoying the leisurely afternoon time.
And Fisher gazing at everything of this merely smiled slightly. Then once again put on the coat, vaulted over the fence hurrying towards the direction of the station.
