Chapter 216 Six Of The Nine Known Continents Have Been Conquered
The Space Bear Clan Patriarch's claws twitched involuntarily as he recalled the humiliation. If not for the gap in their power, he would never have submitted so easily.
The thought of her playful smirk and casual demeanor made his cosmic fur bristle.
'She's likely a Level 9.9 Overlord,' he thought bitterly, glancing at her as she surveyed the now-restored tundra. 'Against someone like her, I wouldn't last long even if I gave it my all.'
Aurielle's voice broke through his thoughts. "You're all sulky now, huh? Don't worry, big guy. I only teased you because you're fun! You'll thank me once the entire continent is unified and no longer falling apart."
The Patriarch let out a low grumble, but deep down, he knew she was right.
The restoration of the tundra was undeniable proof of her ability.
The infected bears that had once plagued his land now roamed freely, their clarity restored, and the crimson flux that had tainted his domain was gone without a trace.
Aurielle stretched theatrically, her violet flux shimmering faintly around her. "Well, that's one more continent down. You bears stay out of trouble, alright? Or I might just come back and turn the whole clan into plushies. You'd make a great gift shop attraction!"
The Patriarch groaned internally, deciding it was best not to reply. Anything he said would likely fuel her antics further.
Aurielle clapped her hands, her smile as radiant as ever. "Alright, enough chatter. Time to move on."
With a flourish, she raised her hand, summoning a swirling portal. Its shimmering surface reflected the icy landscape around them, casting a faint violet glow across the snow.
The Space Bear Patriarch watched in silence, his massive form hunched slightly. Though he wouldn't admit it, he was grudgingly impressed by her nonchalance in wielding such immense power.
Aurielle turned back to give the clan one last playful wave. "Bear Continent, check. Next stop... wherever I feel like going!"
With a light step, she entered the portal, her laughter ringing through the tundra.
Linsley raised an eyebrow, his expression unamused but patient. "And yet, instead of returning here, you decided to take a detour?"
Aurielle clapped her hands together, her voice dripping with mock innocence. "Well, you didn't mention the rest of the human continents! So I thought, why not do you a favor and conquer—uh, assist them while I was at it? Efficiency, Linsley. You're always preaching it."
Lucy crossed her arms, her golden eyes narrowing slightly. "And the real reason?" she asked, her tone sharp but not hostile.
Aurielle's smirk widened. "Okay, fine! I was bored! Unifying the Bear Continent was too easy. I thought I'd spice things up and handle the rest on my own. But then..."
She turned to Linsley, her gaze playful. "You went and messed with my portal coordinates, didn't you? Seriously, Linsley, how'd you even do that? Were you stalking me? Is this your way of confessing undying love for me?"
Linsley exhaled slowly, his white flux flickering faintly as if to suppress his frustration. "You're impossible."
Aurielle gasped, clutching her chest dramatically. "Aw, that's the nicest thing you've ever said to me! Admit it, you missed me."
Ted finally broke his silence, his voice calm but firm. "We don't have time for games, Aurielle. The Valora Continent has already been secured, and the infection here is gone. Between Linsley's work on the Fierce Monster Continent and Bird Continent, and Lucy's efforts in the Gale Continent, we've stabilized more than half of the Diviner World."
Linsley added, his tone steady, "With your contributions in the Dragon Continent and Bear Continent, six out of the nine known continents are free from the Outer Gods' infection. But the Amazon Continent, Umbra Continent, and Atlantis Continent remain unchecked."
Aurielle smirked, crossing her arms triumphantly. "Six down, three to go. Not bad for us, right? Though I think we all know who carried the team."
Lucy's golden eyes narrowed sharply. "Don't let it get to your head. The remaining continents will be harder to deal with. Especially if you keep playing around."
Aurielle waved dismissively, her grin undiminished. "Oh, fine, fine. I'll behave. For now."
Linsley stepped forward, his voice steady but tinged with authority. "No more detours. These last three continents require focus. We move together and see this through as planned."
Aurielle tilted her head, her smirk softening slightly. "Aw, I can't even tease you a little? You're so boring, Linsley. But, fine. Let's see what the Amazon Continent has in store."
