Chapter 149 Go to hell, you stinking gambler!
The phantom of the Celestial Spirit King stood with his arms crossed above the lake behind the guild, amidst a sky full of stars.
Beneath his feet, the waves surging on the lake seemed to have been paused, and the water droplets suspended in mid-air were clearly visible, silent and still.
The appearance of the Protoss King in the human realm will have a huge impact, especially since this is a densely populated town.
Therefore, the Celestial Spirit King is not a true physical manifestation, but rather a projection similar to a star. Only Celestial Spirits and Celestial Spirit Mages can notice his presence and communicate with him.
"Three years! Loki suffered for a full three years!"
Lucy stood fearlessly before Loki, who knelt on both knees, her gaze fixed resolutely on the Celestial King. "For my comrades, for Aries (Aries), this is the only way!"
"I too am deeply saddened by my old friend's suffering—..." The Celestial Spirit King's voice was indifferent and calm.
"What do you mean by 'old friend'? I mean my current friends. Are you even listening, Bearded Daddy?" Lucy stepped forward.
The Celestial Spirit King's expression changed slightly: Beard—Old Man?
"Loki is completely innocent; I can't agree with anything other than that he is innocent!"
Lucy clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and unleashed magic beyond her own limits. "I absolutely cannot agree to this!!!"
"That's enough, Lucy, stop!"
Loki turned pale with fright and cried out in despair, "Only by disappearing like this can I cleanse my sins!"
"
He really didn't want to involve Lucy and the other friends; he just wanted to leave quietly on his own.
"Even if she really disappears, Kallen won't come back to life. Doing so would only add to the sorrow."
Having experienced the Phantom Menace incident, Lucy had clearly matured considerably, and loudly retorted, "There's nothing wrong with thinking of your comrades!"
hum! !
Golden light burst forth, and one figure after another emerged from it.
Aquarius, Talos, Keisha, Balgo, Pru, and the Horologim Protoss sensed and responded to their master Lucy's call, appearing one after another and standing firmly beside Lucy!
Although it was only a fleeting moment, the sight of the twinkling stars was truly breathtaking!
"Multiple constellations opening their doors at the same time? Even Kallen couldn't do that—"
Loki stared blankly at Lucy's retreating figure, his expression blank.
Even the Celestial Spirit King couldn't help but be impressed.
With his deep gaze, he saw a magical aura in Lucy that was different from that of her mother, Leila.
As the golden light dissipated, Lucy, having lost all her strength, collapsed into Loki's arms, who hurriedly reached out to catch her.
Lucy struggled to lift her head and looked at the Celestial King: "Since you are also a Celestial, you must understand Loki and Aries' feelings, right?"
A brief, somewhat oppressive silence fell over the atmosphere.
"To be criticized to this extent by an old friend, it seems the only problem lies with the rules."
Leo, who commits a crime for his friend, and his old friend who fights desperately to save Leo—
The Celestial Spirit King slowly lowered his arms, which were wrapped around his chest. "For the sake of this beautiful bond, this matter will be treated as a special exception."
"Thank the stars for their guidance, Leo. You are pardoned. I allow you to return to the Celestial Spirit Realm!"
Hearing this, Lucy breathed a heavy sigh of relief and gave the Celestial Spirit King, who stood under the starry sky, a thumbs up: "Isn't that a cool statement, Bearded Daddy?"
I laugh~
The Celestial Spirit King's tense expression relaxed, and he grinned.
The two policemen swayed along, and the white hair that was hard to tell whether it was a beard or nose hair was unusually conspicuous.
"But, I—" Loki lowered his head in self-reproach.
He did not believe that his sins could be so easily washed away.
"If you truly want to atone for your sins, from this moment on, risk your life to protect your old friend."
The Star Spirit King's enormous body began to dissipate into starlight, and his voice drifted from the void.
She's the kind of partner you'd do that for, isn't she?
At that moment, the lake surface surged with waves and splashed water.
A gentle night breeze caressed my face, bringing a touch of comfort and ease.
The static spacetime flow velocity returned to normal.
"Hey! Lucy! Loki!"
Urgent shouts came from behind.
Natsu, Gray, Happy, Erza, and Mira ran quickly toward them, their faces filled with worry.
In contrast, Chess, who knew what had happened, was much calmer, with a faint smile on his lips.
Judging from Lucy and Loki's situation, things should have been resolved satisfactorily.
Unfortunately, I didn't get to meet and have a chat with the Celestial King.
If you manage to get a card by fighting someone of this caliber, its quality will definitely be quite high!
Although there's a high chance I'll get beaten to a pulp.
After all, the Celestial Spirit King is at least a powerhouse of the level of Maldo Gil, the actual leader of the Underworld Gate.
Such an opponent is still too much for him to handle at his current level. The companions, who learned from Lucy that Loki was alright, all breathed a sigh of relief.
"I never expected Loki to actually be a Protoss. Will he transform into a strong gorilla like Baloo?"
Natsu jumped around Loki, looking him over with great curiosity.
"Sorry, Natsu, although I am Leo Leo, I am a humanoid celestial spirit and cannot transform." Loki forced a smile.
"Wow! A lion, it's just a cat that's grown up! So handsome~"
Happy looked on with longing, seeing his own grown-up self in Loki, and started admiring himself.
Lucy jumped in and shattered Happy's beautiful fantasy: "...Lions and cats are not the same species."
Not to mention, Leo is just a nickname!
The reason she was able to recover her energy so quickly after exhausting her magic was naturally because she drank the stamina booster given to her by Chase. "What a beautiful key. So, Lucy, is Loki now your Celestial Spirit?" Erza saw the Leo key that Lucy was holding in her hand.
"Yes! They're celestial spirits, but also partners!" Lucy added with a smile.
"Wait, Loki, what about our previous agreement—" Gray asked.
"Don't worry, we can just have Lucy temporarily terminate the contract later." Loki replied with a matter-of-fact gesture.
Lucy: You're already planning to break the contract before it's even been signed?
"Oh my, in that case, Lucy and Loki will be inseparable from now on~" Mira glanced at the two of them with an ambiguous look.
Lucy: "Don't let your imagination run wild, Mila QAQ!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Loki swept her up in a princess carry: "That's right, from now on I'm Lucy's prince charming!"
"Hey! Where did all that sadness go?! Put me down right now!"
"Ahhh, I really want to have my own Celestial Spirit, preferably a majestic fire dragon."
"The Protoss aren't here to fight you!"
"Loki, I have experience. Throwing Lucy into the air with force will elicit a scream from a young girl."
"Chess, I mean, you stinky card dealer, go to hell!!"
