Poison Eve
Chapters-17

"Master, just now, while we were in the carriage, you said, monster fairies are divided into five levels. Fairy monsters decades, hundreds of years, thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, and hundreds of thousands of years, with each color—white, yellow, purple, black and red. Then why is your spiritual chakra in gold? How old is the monster fairy you conquered?"

"Two million years," replied Nazareth expressionlessly.

"Huh?" Evelyn was flabbergasted with her eyes and mouth rounded.

Nazareth smiled understandably, "Why do you think I can break it?"

"I guess because the nature of the monster fairy is opposite to the protective fairy," Evelyn muttered as she bowed and covered her mouth with the tip of her fingers.

"In addition to its nature and type, the age of the monster fairy also had a huge effect on the protective fairy! The power of the monster fairies I sucked in was too great." Nazareth says. "As a result, now, however I try, I can't go past level twenty forever."

Evelyn was silent. Suddenly recalled the words of the female disciple in the Academy. So the rumors are true, he thought.

"In the end, I can only research the theory about the protective elf," Nazareth added with a grim countenance.

Lord Vox was so excited about the protective elf, Evelyn thought. But Migi Vox…

Silence ambushed them for a moment.

"I'm sorry, Master. I've brought up something unpleasant" Evelyn said after a moment of silence.

"No problem," Nazareth said without the slightest burden. "I'm used to it."

Evelyn bowed and remained silent for a long time. Lord Vox's pride was extremely high, yet his heart…

"You regret being my student?" nazareth asked emotionlessly.

"No!" evelyn quickly. "Of course not!" You are so handsome, being by your side all the time has been a fortune to me, he added in his heart. You're my savior anyway. If I don't become your student I have to marry a rich, stupid man.

"After you get your first chakra, our level is equal" Nazareth said. "You'll still improve and my level will be far below yours later on. At that time, I was no longer worthy of being your guardian."

"Master will forever be my guardian" Evelyn argued. "Some say students are always better than their teachers, but teachers always have secrets that are not shared with their students."

Nazareth smiled broadly— wider than usual. But don't say anything else.

"Indeed.. what monster fairy did you kill?" ask Evelyn again.

"Nymph Quebracho" replied Nazareth.

"An axe-destroying fairy tree?" evelyn asked unsure.

"Yes," replied Nazareth. "You know, it's the strongest tree in the world?"

Evelyn nodded in agreement. "I think it is indeed very suitable to add the attributes of the Master's protective fairy," he said.

"I think so too" Nazareth chimed. "Who would have thought it was millions of years old?" remembered sour. "In addition, the tree also turns out to be a host of parasitic plants."

"Parasitic plant?" Evelyn knitted her brows.

"Nymph Cuscuta-Tali Fairy Princess!" answer Nazareth.

Evelyn widened her eyes.

"It was the Fairy Princess who tied the broken wooden stick and turned it into Migi Vox, but along with it too. Vox absorbed the nutrients from my body to survive" Nazareth continued. "Then somehow Vox can move on its own. It was just that the longer he became more and more disobedient. Always doing things I don't like."

Migi Vox suddenly stopped and turned to them. His face looks evil and sly.

Evelyn gulped and stuttered.

A strong wind suddenly blew scattering the colorful grains of light. Monarch butterflies flinched and scattered to and fro.

Nazareth fell silent, listening. Her fox eyes squinted with a cautious attitude.

What the hell's going on? think Evelyn's getting restless. He could hear little monster fairies like rabbits and squirrels running around and hiding in the bushes.

The path in front of them suddenly dimmed as if a dark cloud was encased.

Then there was a flapping sound.

Nazareth looked around. His fox eyes examined every corner of the forest closely.

Suddenly a shadow fell from above the trees. Then the sound flapped again.

Sounded giggling.

Well, but they're not in Indonesia right now!

There are no kuntilanak nipples in the fairy world. So is the character of the ghost of Kuntilanak.

So, where did that sound come from?

Evelyn looked up to examine the owner of the terrible voice, covering her eyes with her palms and narrowing her eyes to sharpen her vision.

There was another flapping sound of wings, followed by the same shrill sound of dry laughter. But his figure is not yet visible.

Suddenly Evelyn's hair bristled. The look on Migi Vox's face is getting unsightly.

Don't tell me it's a ghost! thought Evelyn.

Does the fairy world have ghosts too?

No kidding!

This is not a horror story even though the character is an average Spiritual Master with supernatural powers.

The same sound of dry laughter neighed over their heads, as if mocking Evelyn.

Evelyn jerked her head to the side, then spun back, spontaneously gripping the arm of her guardian mantle.

The creature laughed again.

Evelyn flinched once more, twisting her body again. His panicked gaze swept around.

That's when he saw it.

The harpy!

A bird, head like a human, perched on a tree branch, next to its wings covering its mouth while neighing. Laughing Evelyn. Dry laughter mocks the evil.

And we're fucking wretched! thought Evelyn.

The harpy is a deviant bird, where its appearance is a sign that someone will never get out of the forest easily.

The Harpy is an expert labyrinth illusionist who will make one just go around in circles in the same place without finding a way out.

Migi Vox soared from its spot, then shot towards the bird.

"The fox! Back!" nazareth's orders while throwing light energy in the form of thin threads of light that glow and colorful like a rainbow from each end of his fingers, caught his puppet and pulled it.

Migi Vox landed on Nazareth's chest like a little boy slipping into his father's arms. Both of his tiny hands were wriggling around the man's neck.

Nazareth rubbed the doll's back while whispering, "Don't bother him" he said.

The human-headed bird was giggling again. Mocking Migi Vox.

The doll slipped her face in the recess of Nazareth's shoulder.

Evelyn watched the bird with a fidgety frown. Will he mislead us? thought.

"We should spend the night here" Nazareth instructed.

"Huh?" Evelyn who was fixated on watching the human-headed bird did not immediately understand the words of her guardian.

"It's getting dark" Nazareth said. "A little while later in the night. We continue the search tomorrow morning."

Evelyn nodded and tailed behind Nazareth. They're charging into a field.

In the middle of the field was a flaming, leafy oak tree twinkling like a string of small, colorful lights.

Nazareth led their steps to the tree.

"You know the risk when we meet Harpy, right?" nazareth asked after they sat under the oak tree. He looked at Evelyn.

"Hmh!" Evelyn nodded.

"Well-yeah" said Nazareth. "Better to save energy."
