The wind ensemble tugged at the nearby floating targets, gradually pulling them into the cyclone, collecting them in the eye of the storm, and finally scattering them suddenly, shooting the targets outward. In this burst of strong wind, they couldn’t maintain their suspension, falling far away and only floating again once they touched the ground.
This move is somewhat similar to Magic, but the advantage lies in the arrow’s projection ability, which can precisely deliver the desired Element effect over a long distance for regenerative effects, making it more covert and difficult to defend against.
"Great job, Li Ang." Zoe clapped from the sidelines, accompanied by Anna and Livi.
Hmm, she had already arrived.
Since the Eternal Summer was fully equipped, this guy couldn’t sit still. It indeed felt like she was a wild cat, not mistaken at all, basically needing to run back and forth many times from one end of the deck of the Eternal Summer to the other every day.
Not only that, but while running, she would hum something like "hmm hmm hmm," not quite like an animal growling, but more like an uncontrollable excitement.
Zoe was clapping, and behind her, two small yet resplendent, bewitching young girls, not human, were also applauding.
Anna was expressionless, simply imitating the actions of the Divine Child, executing her will. Livi, however, was genuinely following Zoe, smiling joyfully along with her.
Livi is the name Nebis took in Human Form Avatar, decided through discussions within the Star Flower Travel Corps and the girl’s own willing choice.
Both she and Anna are Dragon Species with serpentine forms, and when their Human Form Avatars stand together, despite their vastly different styles, there is a strong acknowledgment—they are the same.
Even if their avatar dressing styles are vastly different, one is a golden yellow of the Earth, and the other is a deep sea blue. One wears intricate and lavish clothing with a Golden Crown, while the other’s dress is simple and elegant with ornate pendants, the non-human aura still gives the impression like they are a pair of intentionally different dressed twins.
Furthermore, maybe it’s because of their similar circumstances and bloodline powers, they seemed to have become good friends at first sight, often appearing together in pairs. When Li Ang and Zoe are together, they’d become another pair tagging along.
"It’s just learning a bit more skill to handle different situations."
Li Ang hung the training bow to the side, wiped his sweat, and was about to put on his shirt when Zoe suddenly came before him, pressing her palm against his chest.
Protected by mysterious powers, even with years of sword training, her palm, which had only a minor callous, felt quite tangible, causing him to flinch slightly.
Zoe’s eyes glistened with waterlight, and instead of exclaiming, she looked shy and giggled softly.
"Turns out Li Ang also reacts when touched... hehe."
"What are you thinking about?"
Li Ang reached for her forehead, but before he could flick his finger, the young girl tiptoed to seal his mouth.
This sort of intimacy was well-acquainted, but with the two little dragons watching beside them, he felt somewhat restrained.
As if trying to make up for the missing time spent due to busyness and fights since entering the City of the Ship’s Rudder, these days, she’d cling whenever there’s a leisure moment, and she isn’t the only one.
Only a long time later did Zoe part, wiping her mouth, her delicate face displaying a dazed look, seeming mildly oxygen-deprived and forgetful of her location.
"Li Ang, Li Ang, I also want it." Livi ran over in small steps, suddenly pouncing on Li Ang.
"Hey hey, this can’t do."
"Ah? Why not?!"
Compared to Anna’s quiet reservation, Livi was much more lively, soon causing a fuss.
"Our lives are evidently linked, yet you’ve been unwilling to hug me lately!" Livi said, pouting.
Carrying a gorgeously beautiful young girl in public and having a snake-like little dragon wrapped around one’s head are completely two different things, yet no matter how Li Ang tried to explain, she wouldn’t accept it.
"You’re too small."
"How am I small? I’m the same age as Nebis!"
Livi slapped Li Ang’s waist and stomach, her little hands often carried a dampness, bringing a chilling sensation upon contact, and the Dragon Species’ Magic Power gave her a difficult to escape strength if not exerted.
Once tangled with her, it took a great effort every time to break free, prompting Li Ang to look aside to change the subject.
"Zoe, you should start sword training."
"Okay, I came here for that originally, just can’t miss out on the kisses. Also, if, I mean if Li Ang wants, we could, according to the book..."
Zoe shuddered, still as usual, although she spoke tough, she would immediately start trembling once teased.
Since she took on such an attacking stance, Li Ang naturally countered, and soon she was leaning against a connected pillar of the Hovercraft, sliding down to the platform built below the pillar.
The young girl’s knees rubbed, skipping the sword training, turning into needing a bath.
With her last ounce of strength, she bit her lip, switching to an Immortal Spirit Stance, disappearing, fluttering onto a tender branch growing from the ship’s body in the distance.
Plant teleportaion, her Star Soul power could be enacted anywhere on the deck, which would be very powerful if a complex battle happened on the surface of the Eternal Summer.
Transformed to a state with scarce fabric, some marks couldn’t be hidden.
The young girl had garnered knowledge from some strange books, no longer naïve, now fully blushed and dared not look at him again.
"Hmph." Li Ang chuckled, preparing to return to the ship’s interior to sort the unfinished tasks on board.
He turned and locked eyes with Anna.
The petite Star Soul blinked with her starry eyes, saluted, "If the master Divine Child serves has intentions toward this humble body, this one is willing to serve together."
"Why you too?"
Li Ang rubbed his head, turned, and entered the cabins. Livi trotted after him with a "pat pat," waving goodbye to Anna obediently upon leaving her side, "I’ll come play with you later, Anna." The golden-haired young girl unexpectedly nodded in acknowledgment with her own will.
As Livi chased again and wouldn’t let go, Li Ang could only pick her up, letting her sit on his right arm while holding his neck.
Perhaps, being enhanced by the Demon, liberating all desires, once the Eternal Summer sailed into the clear sky, drifted into this unreachable, unseen sea of clouds, he remarkably found there were no concerns left.
The only remaining factor to consider being whether overdoing might spur the Curse’s chaos. Before reaching the Land of Ten Thousand Spirits, the arrangements for these guys on board still needed addressing in the coming days.
Upon entering the cabins, he saw two rows of equipment display racks. This wasn’t for storing Equipment, but for placing crew’s daily items to prevent situations when unarmed upon entering danger, with no Weapons at hand.
Presiding over this area, turning back and descending, it would lead to the ship’s spacious public lounge, placed in the mid-rear of the ship. The radiant windows on the hull let the interior be as bright as the outdoors, naturally, the outside brilliance wasn’t just made possible by design, the Natural Blessing bequeathed by the Star Soul of the Creation Tree also aided.
The lounge furnished with sun loungers, light blankets, bordered with small footstools around low tables, and the tables cluttered with the young girls’ personal belongings, astonishingly filled only a few days after launching. Mostly snacks brought by the City of the Ship’s Rudder folk, living supplies were sparse as there hadn’t been any procurement yet.
On a sun lounger, Meimei, in deep thought, quickly pulled a blanket over her body when she saw Li Ang.
"Wha-what are you doing?"
"Just passing by."
Li Ang didn’t bother with her and walked further into the ship, noticing before leaving the lounge, the flushed face of the white-haired girl became angrily pink.
Curious, angered without provocation.
The lounge connected the living quarters, with a corridor leading to the girls’ rooms, ending at a communal bathroom, no other passageway connects to this zone.
The other pathway ahead led to Li Ang’s commander room, where the area was grander, ending with various workspaces: forge rooms, practice rooms, engine rooms, Magic Items displays, kitchens, etc. They were insulated from the girls’ rooms through the communal bathroom, preventing noise disturbances during their slumber.
Between these two paths was a descent to the lower large section, visibly first was the swimming pool. Constructed similarly to Earth resort pools.
Originally contemplating water filling, the newly incarnated Sea God on board had already been entrusted to complete purified water pouring.
"Wow!"
At the sight, Livi wriggled body, dexterously leapt off Li Ang into the pool.
Her skirt, violating typical fabric texture underwater, emulating an aquatic creature’s fin, swaying gently to support her’s light buoyancy in the water.
"Play here first, I have work inside to do."
"Okay, okay."
The newly incarnate Leviathan indeed had a childlike heart, transforming into such a state seemed natural, yet increasing Li Ang commander’s teaching burdens increasingly.
Beyond the pool lay a room presently bare, Li Ang planned to develop it as a Monster Breeding Ground.
From the initiation, it was a slated project presented by the system, now at last becoming realized.
