After Yasenia overcame the trial, she stepped forward and sashayed her mouthwatering hips toward Angel and Kali. Both of them were blushing with an infatuated expression after Yasenia's powerful display. Even if beauty were very inviting, strength would always be an extremely attractive quality in the cultivation world. You could be ugly, but if your strength were high enough, the opposite sex and even sometimes the same sex would flock to you like moths to fire.
Yasenia had both divine beauty that transcended genders and trampling strength that transcended cultivation realms, making her the perfect partner in the eyes of those that witnessed her trial. This led to the crowd discussing with passion.
"What the hell!? She just smashed the bolts!"
"Kya!! SO HANDSOME I'M GOING TO DIE!"
"So beautiful that I'm drooling everywhere!"
"Can you be less graphic?"
"Oy, what are you looking at with that stupid gaze in front of your fiance!"
"I want your babies!"
"I want a dozen of them!"
One man beside that woman and her friend looked at them speechless, "Do you not know how to say anything else? You have been saying that you want her babies all the time."
Those two women almost had hearts in their eyes as they looked at Yasenia, and one answered, "But I want her babies."
The other said with a creepy laughing tone, "I want her to put her seed in me and bloat my stomach to a breaking point! Huhuhu, To give birth until my lower part is so loose that the babies would slip easily. Huhuhu."
The first one nodded and also laughed strangely, "That right. huekhuekhuek, to give birth to as many babies as needed to create a new race."
The man felt chills going up his spine and decided not to speak to those two crazy women again. Their eyes right now were very scary. 'Dangerous, Dangerous. There are some crazy people in this group.' Even if he wanted to refute that as a woman, Yasenia couldn't put any seed inside them. He didn't dare to speak to those two fanatics.
Thankfully, those two weren't the norm inside the S.L.U.T group, as the cult leaders- *Ouch!* Okay, okay, I understand. The "fan leaders" promoted responsible obsession toward Yasenia. Especially the secret and unknown leader of the Fanclub, who promoted an unknown term called 'Healthy Yandere' that every single one of them embraced with their arms wide open.
Meanwhile, Sarah was looking at the Heaven Gate with reservation. 'Can I pass through it?'
[Host. If you let me control your body, you would be able to pass through it. But remember that you have been in this World very little, and I can't take control many times, or I would destabilize your soul and body connection. So think if it is worth it.]
Sarah looked at Yasenia's back and her long and beautiful swishing tail. Her head told her to reserve this skill from the system for a dangerous moment, but Sarah's heart wanted to remain beside Yasenia. Even if they had been together for nothing more than a few hours, Yasenia's importance and presence in her heart had grown steadily. She took a deep breath and said, 'Okay, let's do it. Take control.'
[Order confirmed]
Sarah's expression turned extremely cold and emotionless, and she zoomed toward the Heaven Gate. Sarah was looking from the outside as if she was looking at a videogame in the third person as her body moved with surgical precision, not wasting any extra energy in any movement. It was as perfect as it could get.
Yasenia reached Angel's and Kali's side and felt an aura approaching from behind. When she turned back, she saw that Sarah was advancing toward the Heaven Gate. Yasenia frowned. Even if she was cautious of this naive girl, she didn't desire her death. 'Does she want to die?'
Yasenia shouted, "Sarah, stop! You can go through the Earth Gate just fine."
However, Yasenia stopped speaking, and her pupils constricted when she looked at her face. Yasenia's body tensed, 'Who is she? She is not Sarah. I didn't feel danger coming from Sarah at any moment. The current her is a completely different being.'
Yasenia not only felt danger but mortal danger coming from her. She observed Sarah's movements closely, and even if it was just a normal run, the feeling it gave Yasenia was that of perfect actions. Our dragoness thought that she wouldn't be able to move like that even if she put conscience in each and every movement of her muscles, at least not yet.
The people stopped discussing and looked at this new arrival with curiosity. "Sarah" arrived under the Heaven Gate and stopped moving after the spiritual pressure locked onto her, taking out a sleek and beautiful rapier.
The first lightning bolt shot toward "Sarah." Her aura flared, and all the basic elements rushed in front of her. Earth, water, fire, metal, and wood combined in front of her. Then, "Sarah's" voice sounded emotionless and cold as she chanted, "[Basic Elemental Defense]."
Then, the five attributed energy separated with extreme finesse impossible for someone at their level, creating five shields, each of one element. The water shield was translucent blue with round borders, looking like a shell. The fire shield was slightly demonic with pointy edges. The earth shield was a tower shield, big and sturdy. The metal shield looked elegant and solid, like a shield from a knight. The wood shield looked like a net delicately woven by roots.
The people around opened their eyes wide, "A quintuple attributed constitution!? Who is she!?"
"I didn't even know that it was possible!"
"This is something that hasn't appeared since the memorials of the continent."
"Why are there so many monstrous cultivators appearing!?"
What amazed them more was that when the lightning collided, it destroyed the five shields and disappeared. They didn't think that it was a coincidence as "Sarah" didn't even flinch or move. They had a chill going up their spines, 'She had perfectly calculated how much strength she needed to block it.'
Yasenia's expression was solemn as she looked at that display. 'Perfect body control, perfect skill control. Is she really Sarah? Or is there something more inside of her?'
The second bolt accelerated toward her, and "Sarah" waved her sword five times, her voice cold and emotionless. "[Five Elements basic Slash]."
The first slash sent a fire crescent, its temperature rivaling an average Sun cultivator's flame. The second slash sent a water wave with so much pressure that it would be able even to cut metal. The third, it lifted the earth before her and shot it toward the lightning bolt like a powerful landslide. The fourth summoned metal swords gleaming with sharpness and flew quickly toward the bolt. The final and fifth slash summoned roots comparable to [Nature's embrace] and whipped toward the lightning bolt.
The combination attack slammed against the lighting bolt and defused it perfectly, not letting it touch Sarah's body. The masterful control of the five elements left everyone speechless. They hadn't seen that mastery in their lives, not even when faced with their seniors.
Yasenia focused on "Sarah's" face; she didn't care how strong she was, but about her personality. The current Sarah only gave her the "Stay away from her or kill her." feeling.
The third lightning bolt rumbled and sped toward "Sarah," carrying that terrible momentum everyone feared. The system didn't even flinch as she used another skill, "[Juvenile Elemental Spirit Barrage]."
She waved her hand, and another five phantom Sarah appeared around her. Each of them had a different colored robe, hair, and eye color. The colors were red, blue, yellow, grey, and green. The system commanded, "Destroy."
Then, each of them slashed continuously with a different element, sending continuous projectiles toward the lightning bolt. The overwhelming amount of attacks rushed toward the lightning bolt and smashed it repeatedly, overpowering it. Even before it disappeared completely, the system waved her hand and dissipated the skill. The remnant attacks that were still mid-air impacted the lightning bolt until the last one exploded together with it. Then, the system returned the body control to Sarah.
[Host. It is done.]
Sarah spoke with a stutter, 'T-Thank you. But where did those skills come from? I-I don't know any of them.'
[Host. Those skills are skills that need extreme control in energy, only available to beings that are born from the World like me. I can't teach them to you yet. You have to unlock the perk [World's child] for ten million points.]
Sarah nodded internally, convinced. 'Those skills are extremely powerful, no wonder they cost so much.'
Then, she regained her original bearing and walked toward Yasenia with an embarrassed smile, 'How do I explain myself? I haven't shown such skill during the time I was with her.'
Sarah felt strange being looked at by Yasenia, her eyes were different from normal, but Sarah didn't understand why. 'Why do I feel a little bit of fear? Yasenia won't hurt me. Maybe she is speechless at my performance?' Then, thinking of the rewards Yasenia gave Kali and Angel, Sarah stated with a shy tone, "I managed to pass too!" Sarah was eager to receive praise from Yasenia too.
Yasenia was currently scrutinizing Sarah with all her senses, and all her body muscles were tense. If Sarah made any suspicious move, her head would fly. Thankfully, Sarah didn't decide to throw herself on Yasenia, or she would have truly died. The system felt Yasenia's hostility but didn't say anything for fear that its advice would doom Sarah. After using Sarah's body, it couldn't take over again at the moment since it would cause Sarah's soul a high amount of strain.
After Yasenia observed Sarah and saw that she was back to normal, her tension slowly dissipated. When Sarah looked at her with her normally infatuated expression and shyness and spoke those words, her guard lowered even more. Suspicions appeared on Yasenia's head. 'Is she possessed? Maybe a soul of a senior is inside her body? No matter how monstrously genius, it is impossible for cultivators of our level to control energy as efficiently as Sarah did. That is something in the realm of Mom and her peers.'
Yasenia confirmed her own thoughts with this thought, 'If she really is possessed, it would answer why she seems to speak to nobody and is reluctant to speak out about it. It would explain everything strange about her until now, but I can't be sure. I will have to be careful and not let the senior suspect that I know, or I may be in danger.'
Yasenia struggled a little bit as this woman before herself appeared shrouded in a veil of mystery she couldn't pierce through, a first time for our perceptive dragoness. Until now, Yasenia could see through even seniors at first glance, but the woman Sarah was something she couldn't grasp. Yasenia was frustrated as she thought, 'Is it the right choice to remain by her side? Keeping a variable this big beside me could lead to a terrible outcome.'
However, these thoughts just flashed through Yasenia's head for a total of five seconds. Yasenia smiled at Sarah gently and answered, "You are extremely strong. I didn't know that someone could have a quintuple attributed body. Your family has hidden you quite well, hahaha. It is reassuring having a strong fighter like you beside me."
Sarah blushed and spoke nonsense, "Y-Yeah, my family didn't want to trouble me, so I couldn't go out for a while. This is my first time outside."
Yasenia ignored her blatant lies and nodded, patting her head softly. Sarah squinted happily as she heard Yasenia's mellow and slightly deep voice. "Sarah, Angel, Kali, you've done a very good work. Let's enter the town."
Yasenia decided to keep her beside her for a while and take an opportunity in the future to get rid of Sarah. Not kill her, mind you. Yasenia wasn't sure what tricks that thing possessing her could have. Yasenia just wanted to separate and for each to go their way. 'I can't let the thing inside her know that I know about it. Seniors like that would want absolute secrecy about their condition, so I would only become a target if I reveal that I know about it.'
At the same time, as misunderstandings piled up for Sarah, they all nodded and walked inside the Town, side by side.
