《Gate keeper》Chapter 57 Rika freed; Fiona's situation and a Yuki's ominous feelings.
Advertisement
Yuki stared at Hima in disbelief but she disappeared after explaining her reasons. They were both kicked out by the giant tree to outside the black fog. Aquarius bit her lips and studied Yuki's stunned look.
"Why do you seem more shocked than me about your own lineage." (Aquarius)
"Because the current me is Hina and Yuki combined into one. Yet I haven't lost anyone dear to me yet." (Yuki)
"Wait why do you ignore what she said about your heritage. It's from the mythical destruction royal Phoenix lineage. The ones said to exist at the beginning of times along with the generation 0 dimensions. Those very one that are said to be mysterious and powerful enough to destroy the 0 generations into nothingness and only leaving a relic graveyard of those historical events." (Aquarius)
"I want nothing to do with such dangerous beings." (Yuki)
(Trans: I know more about them due to Lin. I don't need you reminding me that they lived longer and are practically immortal until they castes their descendants into the far future so they would continue to exist.)
She knew these Phoenixes weren't stupid, she understood them. Lin was one at one point she was the very person who did so because she foretold her extinct of her (the Phoenix queen she was inside before she split from her during her death) race so she cast the children of her race far future as different souls.
"Soul...no it should be soul lineage of the destruction Phoenix." (Yuki)
"Wait you understood her message." (Aquarius)
"You shall loose something dear to you was it? Is it my friends or my family members. I hope everyone is fine." (Yuki)
Back on Iris...
Jade stared at Selena who was nursing Fiona, while Isabella ran up to Jade in a panic. She had heard that Fiona collapsed, her eyes blinked stunned at Evelyn who stood by the bed with a sigh.
"She's cursed. That's for sure. Her state of mind during this curse seems odd too judging from what Jan said about Fiona. It's questionable how she stayed long enough to be sane. Also this curse it's been put onto the princess's lineage. Meaning the lamia is a direct line of the life dragon. Distant descendants (Setsuna and her siblings because they come from her ancestors lineage) aren't affected. Remember this is the long lost lineage of a almost extinct race." (Evelyn)
"Wait can't you cure her." (Jan)
"I can't. That'd be the same as killing her by taking her lineage out of her." (Evelyn)
"Why the hell did this have to happen to her. First Leo dies now she's suffering." (Selena)

"As if your one to talk Setsuna killed the brat." (Isabella)
"Why the heck didn't you stop Yuki from following Setsuna." (Clare)
"Are you stupid Clare, your asking a ant to provoke a dragon. (Trans: she'd die there and then for opposing a powerful ancestor.) At least she came back to us alive." (Mia)
"Hey! Don't go jinxing me yet to my death." (Isabella)
"I pray that she rests in peace." (Clare)
"Don't go killing me off yet you idiots." (Isabella)
"Cut it out you three. Your not kids." (Jade)
Selena caresses Fiona's head carefully as if she were made of glass. She was actually frighten at how vicious this curse was, it could've killed her(Fiona) already.
"I'm fine." (Fiona)
Evelyn winced when she saw the girl coughed out blood. This was a vicious curse, it was no wonder the life dragons didn't survive afterwards. The last princess of their kind was actually unaffected by any curse put on her yet her descendants weren't so lucky to get her immunity.
"I'll say this, your her direct descendant. From the look of things your her granddaughter." (Evelyn)
Fiona blinked shocked, her mother (half lamia and life dragon) said she didn't remember her mother because she was kidnapped when she was 4 years old. So she had long forgotten what she looked like.
"Wait, so your saying that the lady(her grandmother) has been alive for 29,000,000 years! She's fucking old." (Clare)
Fiona's eyebrows twitched, she didn't know why but those words from the succubus annoyed her. This thing just had to say such things about her grandmother, though she hadn't met her she didn't know why she was annoyed.
"Life dragons are special, they're both genders but can pick which gender they wish after mating. But here's the thing the girls don't usually pick since they're both genders but count as female so it does make sense she got a lamia pregnant." (Evelyn)
"Wait what you just said doesn't make sense to me." (Mia)
"So a futanari without a male body part? Is that it." (Helen)
Everyone blinked in the room at the muscle brain they nearly forgot about but Evelyn could only smile bitterly because of the facts of dragons being both genders was mostly the females and the male was just normal like any other guy. Her having to explain gave her a headache but she did put it into simpler terms. Clare's brain fried thinking about it.
"Hey Succubus get your act together. Don't just nose bleed and faint from imagining it." (Jan)
"She killed herself early. Which means she won't be working for 2 days. The succubus does have a dirty mind after all but her imagination must've gone wild again." (Jade)

"Can (cough) I (cough) kill the idiot." (Fiona)
Evelyn laid her back down on the bed and sighed. Only Rika and that other abyssal chaos beast could cure Fiona now. One she didn't know how to contact the other and their leader was more or less insane. What she didn't know was that Ling Yue could also care the curse easily due to Lin's knowledge. Or use the mirror of Trea's River to reverse the affects. The mirror was special in the way it could reflect curses, spells, weapons, and skills back to the other person or dispel them. There was often times the owners used the mirror as a barrier against all things because of its cheat like existence. Even gods feared the user since they could also bounce back blessings too. (Curse like blessings that end up negative to the person themselves.) Setsuna could also help them but she didn't care about anyone else but her dear friends and her sisters. Izaumi was busy trying to find the reincarnated angel that had left his house.
(Remember she's hunting the guy that summoned the crazed Rika to their current planet.)
Ling Yue sets down Niana on the mountain top and channels the energy streams into her(Niana's body).
"Are you sure her younger sister won't look for us." (Lin)
"Wait your bringing up Hitomi now." (Ling Yue)
Hitomi was Niana's younger sister, her past was odd with the fact that she was a royal pure angel that was always sickly. So she was always in bed, her husband had always doted (spoil) on her though she didn't love him. Her sickly figure staying in bed is known by many and her circumstances were always monitored by the outside world. They didn't understand how she could be so sickly though being born by two powerful pure angels of the royal lineage. She was too weak for her body to even give birth so her husband always tried to spoil her. Wise beyond her years but always kind to others no matter the situation.
"She's powerful but she's only protective of Niana's daughters. Hitomi isn't a idiot either, I'm a 190% sure she's reborn here in a health body." (Lin)
"Wait why'd you bring her up then." (Ling Yue)
"Cause this one (eyes Ling Yue) idiot fell for her afterwards (after stupid Niana got married) but had a soft spot for her first love's kids." (Lin)
Ling Yue winced when she felt a silent stab at her heart. A huge white pillar flashed into the sky and something descended downwards towards them. Lin nodded her head in satisfactory as she knew it was the original time keeper's body.
Rika smile as she walked out from the broken glass window, finally she was out. She had to thank whoever caused the earthquake. Allowing herself to be free. But she stopped herself in the hallway hearing those crazy voices telling her what to do. Kill the girls they're in your way, they'll stop you at any cost.
"No! I can't kill my girls they've been with me too long. I'd do anything else you say but killing them." (Rika)
(She's talking to her insanity instincts kicking in.)
"They scorned and locked you up."
"No that's true! Ivo and the girls locked me up because they didn't want me to kill others." (Rika)
Her right hand slammed on the wall hard but it sent a energy wave to a 1 kilometer distance killing animals and humans alike. She was stunned at the scene that welcomed her and bloodied corpses after she left the hallway. (Rika was inside a abadoned building. And the hallway led to a cliff like dead end that was open to the outside, like those construction site that was half way done. Ivo just added the glass room to keep watch of Rika.
Her hands tremble as she let out a scream killing the birds that had just come out for the morning. Fear struck her as she couldn't control her powers now. It felt like she was losing herself bit by bit. (Do know she's insane already trying to reason her way out but the insanity is also making her enjoy it at the same time she just hasn't picked up on it.) She noticed a weird smile coming to her lips, she held her head as she felt herself (her conscience and consciousness) blacking out.
If someone was watching they'd see someone insanely laughing in the morning light having won its freedom. Her insanity had finally taken complete control of her. How can it not be excited to be freed into the world itself. Instead of locked up and it was satisfied with its work of eating her life bit by bit so it could come out as it pleased.
Just that Rika had noticed a too late and she was nearly gone by then. This part of her grinned happily to the sun rising in the horizon. It felt so happy to be up at this time.
"Shall I get rid of her girls first. No I should get rid of the stupid abyssal who nearly ruined my plans. Those monkeys (girls) can wait."

Nighthawk
Ancient tombs hold mysteries and treasures that many cannot even begin to imagine. From magical traps to deadly monsters, mechanisms are established to keep these tombs shut. However, there are brave souls who dare to risk their lives for the allure of riches and glory. Those who rob graves and storm tombs are known as Nighthawks. Lucrio Law, the young heir of Tosa, doesn’t care about graves or tombs. In fact, he doesn’t care about much besides drinking, gambling, and womanizing. But when circumstances leave him ensnared by a centuries-old curse, Luc is forced to walk the path of a Nighthawk, searching for the cure to his curse and discovering that some things are meant to stay buried. Author's Note: - This story will contain litrpg elements like Titles, Skills, and Levels. - MC will not become instantly powerful. I plan for a slower grind with a focus on the characters themselves rather than their abilities. - This is my first attempt at a litrpg story, so please leave any comments/suggestions you have!
