Chapter 274 : Nice Beach (Bonus)
A few days later.
Nathan was sitting on his beach chair while wearing sunglasses. He only wore a trunk while saying, "This is nice."
"Hmm. It's hot though." Fenrir was lying down underneath the umbrella. "Well, it's not that bad either."
"That's true. Sand that is different from where I resided…" Anubis nodded and played with the sand, curious about all types of sand.
Nidhogg simply slept as if nothing had happened.
"By the way, talking about the sea, what kind of divine beasts can we actually summon in the sea?"
"I'm not sure. They can be called a mythical beast, but I wonder if they can be called a divine beast. After all, they have appeared a lot in legend, but I haven't heard their godly title.
"For example, Leviathan. It's a serpent demon, who is mentioned to be similar to divine beings.
"There's also Kraken… but I'm rather skeptical of summoning a kraken. After all…" Nathan pointed at Fenrir. "You are from the same mythology, meaning the same as Nidhogg as well. Although it might sound rude, let me have some variation.
"Well, there are also dragons who guard rivers in Chinese Mythology. If not, maybe I should summon one of the four heavenly beasts, the tortoise and a snake, Genbu?
"I'm not so sure right now. Besides, we might not necessarily need to summon one just yet."
Nathan explained.
"That's true." Fenrir nodded. "I'm just curious. I want to try fighting other divine beasts."
"Well, there are familiars like Three-Legged Crow, who is said to live in the sun or maybe Kitsune. The nine-tailed kitsune is tempting, but I think the one that will be summoned is Tenko, a kitsune who has evolved and wields divine power.
"There are also other divine beasts that are interesting, so I will be summoning them first. As for the fourth familiar, I will just base it on our current situation."
"Hoho? Those guys sound strong." Fenrir smirked. "I'm going to challenge them after this. Don't neglect our Ena, alright? I need more Ena if I want to fight them!"
"Of course. I'm working on it." Nathan smiled wryly.
However, Fenrir soon fell silent and pointed to the side as if signaling Nathan someone was coming.
And that was the moment he was waiting for.
Nathan's eyes were wide open.
Selena was coming together with Risa.
Although he had seen what kind of swimsuit Selena chose a few days ago, this was the first time she was wearing it.
She chose a white bikini that gave a contrast to her long black hair. Her cold face coupled with this outfit showed a contrast that ended up giving a unique charm that couldn't make him look away.
Risa, on the other hand, chose a black one, which blended with her hair. She was more like a bolder elder sister when walking next to Selena.
Obviously, with how diverse familiar clothes were, he wasn't surprised that someone would have brought a bikini to this world. In fact, there were still mermaids and other sea creatures that could show such a thing.
For the first time in his life, he clapped his hands together while saying, "My lucky day has arrived. I thank you for all the sacrifices of the fallen warriors who have brought bikinis to this world."
"What are you talking about?" Selena asked while putting down a small bag.
"Nothing. I'm just enjoying the beach to the fullest." Nathan showed a sly smile.
Selena knew what he meant and didn't ask further. "Still, this is the first time I can enjoy the beach, unlike the one on the tropical island."
"True." Nathan nodded. "That's why just enjoy it to the fullest."
"Mhmm. The sounds of the waves are soothing, the heat from the sun makes you lazy to leave your chair." Selena sighed, feeling relaxed. "This would have been a perfect vacation if not for…"
Before she finished her words, another voice echoed from the side.
It was none other than Serafina. She was coming with the fallen angel and Brunhild.
The fallen angel was wearing a rather bold one, as if temptation were her first priority. Meanwhile, Brunhild covered her body with a long skirt slit on the left and a round white hat that enhanced her mature appearance.
The problem was Sera.
Even Selena was gritting her teeth while glaring at her breasts.
Compared to all the women in this place, no one had a better body than her. If Noelle or Flora were here, she wouldn't be this annoyed. But Sera was probably her biggest rival.
'Maybe changing religion is fine…' Nathan thought.
"It would have been perfect if not for her here. Why is she even here?" Selena clicked her tongue.
"Don't ask me. I can stop Sullivan, but I can't talk to the Pope. And since the Pope is the one sending her over, my Master has no choice but to agree as well. The reason this time is for observation is because we might encounter the enemies again when solving this city's trouble."
Selena sighed.
"Desperate time calls for desperate measures, huh?" Nathan muttered.
"What?" Selena squinted her eyes.
"Nothing. Do you want to eat or drink something? I will go." Nathan tried to act like a gentleman before Selena got angry because he had one 'mission.'
What he didn't expect was that there was another encounter waiting for him.
While he lined up to buy a drink, he was approached by a woman.
"Hello, young man. Are you buying something for your girlfriend?" The woman looked mature, but there were three distinctive features about her.
She had red hair, used sunglasses, and inhaled her tobacco pipe.
In that instant, he saw through the disguise, considering he never had an acquaintance with this kind of appearance. And that pipe gave away the answer.
"Yes." Nathan nodded. "May I know your name, beautiful lady?"
"Just call me Ella." She smiled.
Nathan's eyebrows twitched. 'She just removed the 'B' from her name. I guess she is the one dispatched from Sleeping Garden. Isabella.'
