My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character! - Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Let’s make this title a reality
Though Xiu Ying furrowed her brow, she allowed the spirit to continue. This was the insignificant price she willingly paid.

“In that case, I shall claim one year of your life in exchange for one night!” The spirit pressed her hand against Xiu Ying’s forehead, siphoning a portion of her life force.

A single year of her lifespan held little significance for Xiu Ying, considering her long life span thanks to her cultivation.

She had hundreds of years of lifespan left. With more breakthroughs, she could only increase it. So one year was insignificant.

The only reason she hadn’t summoned this spirit all this time wasn’t because of the price. Instead, it was deeply rooted in her history and past.

“That was delicious.” The Spirit moved back, rubbing her belly with satisfaction. “My Mother keeps asking me why I even bother staying in a contract with someone from the human realm. She would never understand this feeling…”

“If you’ve had enough of the talking, I want you to get to work.”

Xiu Ying cut her off mid-sentence.

“Tsk, you are no fun. Are you still angry about the last time?” The Spirit cutely puffed her cheeks while rolling her eyes.

“A man went in that direction, riding a phoenix,” Xiu Ying came to the main point without even bothering to answer the spirit.

“A man? Do you want me to kill him?” The Spirit asked, only to stop when she felt a terrifying killing intent from Xiu Ying.

“I was joking! Calm down!” The Spirit clarified, despite her surprise.

She had never expected that Xiu Ying would care about a man so much that she was even willing to get in contact with her again.

Not only that, she was even showing such a scary expression when she just joked about killing that man? She was really curious about the identity of that man, who could make this girl like this.

“I want you to follow him, without revealing yourself. If his life is ever in danger, I want you to save him. But at any cost, you must never let him know that you are related to me!” Xiu Ying stated, determined to protect the man she cared about so deeply.

She knew the risks involved but was willing to go to great lengths to ensure his safety.

“Remember, don’t interfere unless his life is really in danger! I don’t want you to become an obstruction for him! And if it’s something that even you can’t handle, then call for me without any delay!”

“Something I can’t handle? Huh, did you forget who I am? There is nothing I can’t handle!” The Spirit stated, her voice carrying slight hints of arrogance.

….

“Since the Phoenix is my Contracted Beast, her strength should count as my help. If I am careful about this, I should be able to finish this before morning.”

“There is only one problem… Where to find the Sea Serpent at night?”

In the morning, he came across one without even wanting to. However, finding one was harder than he thought.

Even the map he had did not show a proper place where they could be found. It only showed a general area, which was so vast that he could keep searching for days.

“If I’m not wrong, the one I saw in the morning was going in that direction.”

He pulled out a piece of paper, and started doing some calculations.

“At the speed it was moving, if I roughly assume his velocity and the amount of time that has passed, it should give me a much smaller range to search.”

After he finished the calculation, he opened the map again. He found the point where he had seen the Sea Serpent.

He placed his fingers on the point and traced the direction.

“This place!”

After a rough calculation, he found a target which was not too far from his current location. It was just on the opposite side of the Sea Dragon’s habitats.

He understood why a Sea Serpent did not want to enter a dragon’s territory, but it worked out for his benefit in the end. He didn’t have to worry about catching the attention of the Sea Dragons during his search.

The Phoenix quickly changed direction and flew towards a different part of the ocean, as per Eren’s desire.

Under the moonlight, Eren kept looking at the ocean. Even with his weaker night vision, he did not think he could miss something as giant as the sea serpent.

To further help, the Phoenix flew much lower than its usual height, but still higher than the Sea Serpent could jump.

“In the fight between the sky and ocean, we can’t afford to lose. We will win, and we will have a feast.” Eren patted the back of the Phoenix as he prepared for an impossible battle.

He checked to make sure that the Pendant of Protection was still properly around his neck.

He prepared more talismans that could boost his speed and strength temporarily.

The strength boost was not even close to what he received from the Pendant of Strength. But at desperate times like these, he could not afford to worry about such things.

“There he is!” After searching in the same area, Eren saw the same Sea Serpent that he did in the morning.

He prepared a weapon and took a deep breath. Compared to the Sea Serpent, he looked much smaller.

If both were standing on the same ground, he would appear no different than an ant compared to the giant beast.

Still, this ant was willing to take this risk. He hadn’t even realized how he had started to change after coming into this world.

At the start, he was more cowardly. Every time, he was worried about being killed.

He only wanted to protect himself and stay away from danger. And here he was, trying to fight a giant monster that could swallow him whole.

“The Hunter of Night, not a bad title. Let’s make this title a reality!”
