Chapter 283: Rikka
Chapter 283: Rikka
After the Oni fell to the ground, Nora and Ingrid wasted no time.
*BOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOM!*
Loud sounds echoed. Blood scythes as well as many flames fell on the Oni’s body, causing him to sink deeper into the ground.
Luan appeared in front of Oni’s chest as he was down. Luan’s Qi multiplied, so he hit it hard!
*BOOOM!*
Blood appeared in the opening that was created inside the Oni’s chest, and Luan walked away. The Oni was on edge; a few more attacks and they would die. Nora and Ingrid saw Luan walk away and continued to launch attacks towards the Oni. Turning red in color, the Oni got up and started to spin, making the same attack as before, while the power behind the attack was stronger than the previous one.
Luan used the clouds to surround the Oni. Soon the Oni’s speed slowed down. At this point, Nora used her powers and froze Oni’s movements completely.
Ingrid practically teleported and stood in front of the Oni. Pulling back the scythe, she started to exert force. Red energy started creating a red smoke that surrounded the scythe, so she hit it hard on the Oni’s right leg.
*Chi no Kama!* She screamed as she attacked, using one of the attacks she inherited. The sickle gained momentum, increasing in speed.
*BANG!*
Hitting the target hard, the scythe cracked the bone in Oni’s leg, causing him to fall to his knee.
Luan, flying in the cloud, was so fast that Oni couldn’t react at all when he appeared at the height of the Oni’s head. And using the Spirit Tree, Luan created a spear that pierced the Oni’s eye, continuing clean through the head.
*Bang!* The terrifying power instantly tore through the Oni’s defense.
The Oni’s body flew backwards and landed heavily on top of another house further to the left of the house the Oni was initially protecting, during which his life force dissipated. Soon, turning into a smokescreen, the Oni turned into a small clay doll.
“Phew~” Nora smiled. She approached the Oni’s clay doll and took it.
“Let’s go,” She said as he walked towards the house.
When they entered, Luan felt that something of value was hidden in a basement. Soon he found the entrance to the basement.
“There’s something good here,” he said.
Nora opened the door, then they went downstairs.
It was dark, so Luan created a fireball to light.
Arriving at the basement, there were indeed many things of value, some substantial. There was also a chest and… a frozen coffin.
Ingrid approached the coffin.
“Is there a girl frozen in the coffin?!” she said in surprise.
Luan and Nora went over. When they saw it, they were also surprised. This girl appeared to be of the elf race, with pointy ears and an appearance to envy any other race.
“Is she still alive?” Ingrid felt sorry for the girl frozen in the coffin.
Luan thought and replied, “Hard to say, but she still has life force, so she has a chance.”
Nora raised an eyebrow. She said, “Even if the odds are low, I want to save this girl, or at least try.”
Luan understood why she acted like that. She saw herself in the girl so she was less cold than normal.
“Okay, let’s try,” Luan nodded and added, “I can create a negative flame. It won’t affect her, but it will affect the ice.”
“Okay, let’s try it.” Ingrid curled her hands into fists.
“Okay.” Luan approached and placed his hand on the ice. It was cold, and it caused him to miss the heat. Luan created the white flames. It began burning the ice little by little. If it were common flames, it wouldn’t even be able to melt the ice.
Gradually, the spells that had been put in place were broken by Luan. Up to nine seals, six runes, and three formations were broken.
“Whoever did this was quite skilled,” Nora muttered.
Though she didn’t understand, she knew enough to know that to do something like that, it couldn’t have been an ordinary person. She’d seen Luan create something similar before and could tell how complex it could be.
The unbinding of the spellwork took less than an hour, but it felt like it took a lot longer than that. Luan, who was in the Fifth Order, had to use 70% of his Qi to succeed. Soon, he opened the ice coffin. The last thing restraining the little girl in the ice coffin was gone.
When the girl opened her eyes after being thawed, she looked at Luan, Ingrid, and Nora with curiosity visible in her eyes and sat up in the coffin.
“Cute girl, what’s your name?” Ingrid asked with a soft, gentle smile.
“Rikka,” she answered. Her voice was soft and childlike, very cute, making Nora’s maternal instincts want to run over and hug this cute creature.
Rikka was a short but developing girl, with no curves, thin thighs and not a bit of a bust, perhaps something quite soft for her age. Her hair was long and straight in a celestial blue color, with a pair of pigtails, in addition to having a small fringe on her forehead and two larger streaks on the sides; her skin was fair and her big eyes were red-pink in hue.
Nora looked sweetly at the girl with a genuine expression of affection. “Rikka, do you know why you were put in that ice coffin and frozen?”
While Nora and Ingrid were more concerned about Little Rikka’s safety, Luan noticed something creepy. This girl’s strength was very close to the Sixth Order. Although it was very well hidden, he could feel her Qi, and it was very frightening. Maybe her fighting power was even above Nora who was in the Sixth Order.
Rubbing her pretty eyes, Little Rikka stood up and hugged Ingrid, “Mommy! You smell like Mommy! I’m glad you’re alive and haven’t been killed by the villains!” She was crying very loudly.
Ingrid was startled, surprised by what was happening; same thing for Luan and Nora. They didn’t expect this girl to think that Ingrid was her mother.
