Chapter 284: A Fierce Battle

Watson pinched his nose and dived into the hot spring. He reached out and touched the pearly white feet, which immediately shrank back as if they were electrocuted. He found it funny, thinking that Nightingale was too sensitive.

“Who’s there?!”

At that moment, a woman’s voice echoed from above Watson’s head. It reached the water through the surface; his face changed because the voice did not sound like Nightingale’s. At the same time, he found another strange thing; Nightingale did not seem to be wearing any clothes. Her smooth feet were connected to her round and smooth calves. On top of that, her plump thighs were crossed, and one could vaguely see her perky buttocks.

It was not just the towel. The woman did not even wear any underwear, which made Watson feel a little incredulous. If that were Nightingale, she would be embarrassed to see him without any clothes on.

If it were not Nightingale, who was that person? Was it the maid who he had dismissed?

Watson was puzzled and was about to rush out of the hot spring when a terrible force suddenly fell from above his head. It was a sharp sword aura that wanted to cut the entire hot spring and him.

….

Christina’s face was red when she raised her right hand and hacked furiously at the hot spring, aiming at a faint shadow beneath it.

When she entered the hot spring, she looked around and discovered that it was deserted. However, she felt someone touch her feet after entering the bat. She initially thought it was an illusion, but a peculiar sensation on her feet made her realize something was amiss. She concentrated her efforts on probing the surface of the water and discovered a person lurking in the hot spring.

However, she could not see who it was; she trembled in anger.

“Who dares to ambush me as I soak in the hot spring?” Whoever you are, d*mn pervert, go to hell!”

Christina’s physique radiated a brilliant light-elemental combat aura as she spoke. It wrapped around her and transformed into a warm, luminous robe that concealed her bare body.

The entire hot spring was ripped open by her sword aura, revealing Watson’s form below.

“You?!”

Christina’s face contorted as she looked at the youth who had appeared in front of her and realized it was the person she would look for later. Her gaze became sharper, and the corners of her mouth twisted into a smile.

She was there to find a way to put Watson’s strength to the test and spar with him. Even if the setting was a little awkward as they had met at the hot spring, it was still a fantastic chance. After all, she did not require an excuse to fight.

“What brings you here, Miss Christina?”

Watson realized who it was when he stood up. It was Christina. He also had a surprised expression on his face. At the time, Christina had used a light-elemental combat aura to cover her body. Even though it covered most of her flesh, one could still see her plump contour through the soft light.

Watson did not think much before he realized that Christina’s sword aura had already arrived in front of him. That sword aura was not as powerful as Christina’s attack on him in the Adventurer’s Association during the day, but he was not wearing platinum-tier armor at the moment.

As a result, Watson elected to employ the diamond-tier Absolute Defense spell in response to that attack.

A protective barrier in the shape of a semi-transparent polygon appeared on his body with a swoosh. A hexagonal seal was used to create each protective barrier. When the sword aura made contact with the shield, it made a faint sound and was instantly repelled.

“Watson, when I saw you at the Adventurer’s Association, I thought of you as a young and promising adventurer. I did not expect you to be a pervert. You deliberately waited here to ambush me and even peeked at my body. You’re quite bold!”

Christina thought she was right when she saw Watson parry the sword aura she had casually discharged. Watson was a platinum-tier elite, yet he pretended to snort coldly.

Indeed, Christina was unconcerned that someone had seen her naken, believing that a person’s body was merely a skin. It was irrelevant whether it was attractive or not. What mattered was whether that body could develop into a razor-sharp weapon as she became stronger.

“Miss Christina, you’ve misunderstood me. I did not mean to peek at you! I was lying in ambush, but I did not expect you to be here,” Watson explained helplessly.

He felt very aggrieved. He had planned to ambush Nightingale, but who could have guessed that the Holy Sword adventurer team’s captain had appeared instead. Furthermore, she was naked. He wondered why the maids did not inform him?

Watson had transmigrated to the world in the body of a 10-year-old boy, and he was 12 years old then. He had lost his indifference to matters between men and women. He recalled the scene where he saw Christina bathed naked in the hot spring. He noticed how his nostrils had burned, and a trace of bright red liquid began to flow. He was suffocating in the hot spring.

Dribble…

“Misunderstanding? Why would your nose bleed if it were a misunderstanding? Additionally, you said that you intended to ambush someone here. Do you believe that attacking ladies is okay regardless of who you ambush?”

Then, Christina spread out her dazzling combat aura wings on her back and shouted softly, “Light-elemental Law of Domain, activate!”

A vast, bright domain materialized beneath her feet. One of the simple-looking thin swords landed in Christina’s hand. The domain’s thin sword was very similar to the sky-severing weapon she employed during the day.

“Watson, don’t think that I will let you off easily after doing such a thing! Copy the Sky Severing Blade and attack!”

If Christina did not mind it just now, she felt a little embarrassed when she saw Watson’s nose bled as if he was reminiscing about something. She controlled the law domain and attacked Watson.

The power of that sword attack was not inferior to the one she had used during the day. The sword aura pierced through the entire hot spring and flew straight into the sky. The hot spring’s rocky ground was cut open, and the clouds in the sky were also broken.

“Dark-elemental Law of Domain, activate!”

Watson could only stomp his feet as he realized Christina had no intention of stopping. A vast dark world appeared beneath his feet, the polar opposite of the brilliant domain beneath Christina’s.

Watson waved his hand to activate the pitch-black domain, and a ball of pitch-black fog wriggled out of the realm. It transformed into a black sword blade in his hand and swept out, easily dispelling Christina’s sword aura.

That attack was just an ordinary attack, but it was on par with Christina’s. Over the past two years, he had been receiving guidance from Elvira, Nightingale, and other warriors on Mount Creation. He had trained hard, and that effort was not in vain.

“I did not expect you to be not only a platinum-tier elite but also to have a dark combat aura. It seems like we are natural enemies! In that case, I don’t need to hold back.”

The two opposing domains clashed. Obviously, the domain under Christina’s feet had fallen into a disadvantage, constantly cracking and even collapsing. However, she did not care at all. Instead, her eyes were burning with a desire to fight. She extended her right hand and clenched it fiercely toward Watson.

“The next move is the strongest move I have mastered so far. The heart is the bone of the sword, and the sword forges the body. That body is perched atop Sword Hill! Platinum-tier combat technique, Infinite Sword Slash!”

The light domain beneath Christina’s feet gleamed brightly as she moved. Each light weapon assumed the form of a Sky Severing Blade. At the same time, hundreds of Sky Severing Blades ascended into the sky, transforming into shooting stars. Their might shook the entire world.
