Chapter 320: Ciallo( )
Esdeath stared at him with indifferent, ice-blue eyes, as if looking at a piece of human trash.
"I often help out some pretty ladies... cough, I mean, since there is a cute girl waiting for me to lend a hand, how could I just sit by and watch?"
Jagi shook his finger and said righteously.
In the current situation, it was no different from a silver-haired beauty suddenly rushing in front of him, grabbing his hand, and saying, "Please use me."
Even if nothing else was said, if he let Angelia continue to stay in the Holy Spirit Realm alone, and one day she accidentally blew up the world in her sleep, wouldn't he have a share of the credit for that?
According to Merlin, Holy Spirits are beings that lend their power to "Saintesses," and the physical body that houses the spirit can be concealed by an ability invisible to ordinary people; this ability is what people call Holy Spirit Power.
Although Jagi did not have Holy Spirit Power, thanks to the trace of purified blood that Chunhu had previously shared with him, after just two glances, he was able to convert all of that incomparably vast Dragon-Turning Fighting Qi into Holy Spirit Power, supporting Angelia's manifestation in the world.
Looking across the entire Material Realm, he was the only one who could afford to provide it.
If a Holy Spirit is damaged, it only manifests on the physical body as phenomena like bodily fatigue, but it can recover on its own through Holy Spirit Power after a period of time; it can be said to be a quite convenient existence.
Under normal circumstances, purely physical attacks are difficult to be effective against Holy Spirits, unless they are weapons imbued with special energy, but Holy Spirits can attack real-world objects...
"Don't worry! From now on, this lady will cover you!"
Angelia's emotions came and went quickly. Originally on the verge of becoming a little crybaby, after receiving Jagi's guarantee, she immediately broke into a smile through her tears, revealing a confident grin.
The current scene was truly rare—a young girl no taller than 1.1 meters telling a big guy with powerful, robust muscles and an incredibly sturdy build, "I will protect you." No matter how you looked at it, it was somewhat strange.
Jagi suddenly understood the feeling of the Park God of War headquarters' Izou asking to protect Hanma Yujiro. Of course, he, who was equally confident, didn't think he would encounter any situation that required summoning a young girl to fight, but for now...
"Snap."
Jagi snapped his fingers, showing a look of triumph.
"Four-Egg-Head Power! — 'Tinyearth'!"
The power of the Holy Spirit is really easy to use.
Come on, although it's not Star Platinum that can stop time, isn't a blonde loli holy girl who can punch through the atmosphere and withstand an atomic bomb also great?
As if emerging from the void, a petite figure appeared on Jagi's wide, double-door refrigerator-level shoulders.
A childish and angelically cute face, blonde hair hanging down to her ankles, as dazzling as the sun, pupils of a rare orange-red, still wearing a thin white shirt—
Angelia Avallone
"I'll beat you up!"
It's just that she was now clenching her little fists, revealing a small canine tooth, her cheeks puffed up in anger, seemingly dissatisfied that he had called her out so casually... or perhaps a bit shy in front of a stranger.
"Come, let's get to know everyone!"
Jagi's large hand reached toward the little one sitting on his shoulder.
"Hmph! No way!"
Although she chose to sign a contract with Jagi because she was too bored, Angelia had, after all, lived alone in the Holy Spirit Realm since she was 10 years old. At this moment, facing anyone or anything was a brand-new, unknown experience for her.
She had inexplicably gained powerful strength, but the young girl had absolutely no self-awareness that she was a powerhouse.
"Awoo."
Facing the hand attacking from above her head, Angelia bit down without hesitation, and Jagi's skin, which was comparable to a "Mobile Church" and possessed the defensive power of a nuclear bomb shelter, was breached in an instant.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch... are you Index or something!"
A trickle of bright red blood flowed down along her canine tooth. The young girl spat out her pink, tender little tongue and licked the wound, and a pale golden light immediately healed it. However, this also caused Jagi's plan to lift her in front of him to fail.
Yakumo Zi's eyes lit up; she suddenly understood Jagi a bit. This little blonde girl was quite cute, looking just like a doll. If she could hold her while hibernating, it would definitely be very comfortable.
Moreover, Jagi was only bolstered by a portion of her power and could already reach the Frenzy Mid-Rank. If she could trick her away, then... she felt she had ten thousand ways to trick her into bed.
"Hmm?"
Angelia glanced at the Yokai Sage, who was full of bad intentions and didn't know what she was thinking. She seemed to have seen through her in an instant and said bluntly.
"I don't like this guy! Death penalty!"
Although her experience was shallow, it would be a huge mistake to try to fool her just because she looked innocent. Angelia only appeared somewhat childish. As a Holy Spirit who could only be seen by a "Pure Heart," she possessed the ability to distinguish human hearts; those with ill intentions could not get close to her.
"Then what is he relying on?"
Yakumo Zi's gaze, as if materialized with resentment, stabbed fiercely into Jagi's face. She didn't have a pure heart; did Jagi have one?
"Perhaps... I am a person full of childlike innocence, Ciallo~ (∠ω<)⌒☆" Jagi winked at Yakumo Zi. Ever since he saved the world, he felt he had transformed from a great white shark back into a little goldfish.
"Eww~ How disgusting!"
The martial power he possessed now, although not enough to look at in front of certain stacking-box methods, was completely sufficient when facing the vast majority of hot-blooded battle-type worldviews. The problems that had troubled him in various worlds in the past could now be easily solved just by taking the time to visit.
Esdeath was about the same; her mindset had become increasingly calm recently, as if her eyes were filled with a certain kind old uncle...
Taking advantage of Angelia's attention being drawn by Yakumo Zi, Esdeath appeared silently beside Jagi, reached out, placed her hand on Angelia's head, and stroked it gently.
"Mmm~"
Angelia made a sound of enjoyment like a large, spoiled golden retriever cat.
"This blue-haired woman is not bad~"
The Holy Girl judged so; it seemed her favorability toward Esdeath was much higher than toward Yakumo Zi.
"Forget it, I won't bother with you guys!"
Yakumo Zi said in self-abandonment: "Anyway, I'm just redundant... It's better for the three of you to live your lives well than anything else."
The corner of her mouth twitched, feeling that if she stayed here any longer, she would definitely be under increasing pressure like Ran.
Speaking of Ran... it was also time to go back and take a look.
Without giving Jagi time to react, Yakumo Zi snorted in annoyance, flicked her long purple Taoist robe, and disappeared directly.
