Unfortunately, most of the time was spent on the road. After all, it was travel — using the Wind Glider too much for rushing would make it hard to appreciate Watatsumi Island's scenery.
The old uncle estimated the time. Watatsumi Island's side should have already started preparing dinner.
This was his first time here, so he couldn't skip the banquet prepared by Watatsumi Island.
"Let's go, Eula. We'll stop here for today. After the handover of official business tomorrow…"
At this moment, a teleportation portal suddenly appeared in front of the old uncle and little Eula. From inside walked out a Pyro Abyss Mage.
The old uncle and little Eula did not hesitate for even a moment and acted completely on instinct.
Little Eula smashed her greatsword onto the Pyro Abyss Mage's elemental shield, combining it with Cryo to shatter the Pyro shield on the spot. Because the old uncle felt that drawing his gun would be too slow, he chose to punch the Pyro Abyss Mage directly in the face.
Ora ora ora!
Anemo elemental energy condensed on his fist, directly accelerating the punches.
However, the old uncle did not go for the kill.
Mainly because he had communicated with that red furry little brother back on Dragonspine before. Abyss Mages would return to the Ley Lines after death and then be summoned again.
So rather than beating him to death, it would be better to beat him into submission first and then interrogate him about what evil plans the Abyss had.
The Pyro Abyss Mage curled up his body.
"Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me already! If you keep hitting me I'm going to get beaten to death!"
The old uncle stopped his fists.
He just felt that this voice sounded very familiar…
He recalled for a moment…
"Red furry little brother?"
No way. You, the one who stole big brother-in-law's red pants and danced around, are still alive?
Although I understand that you gained something on Dragonspine that gave Aether a lot, I'm still somewhat surprised that you managed to survive until now…
The Pyro Abyss Mage lying on the ground visibly stiffened…
Then he suddenly sat up.
"Human?! You idle good-for-nothing birdman, what are you doing on Watatsumi Island…
Oh, I forgot. It looks like you came to Enkanomiya to find trouble… I mean, to adventure?"
Hey hey hey, did you just call me an idle good-for-nothing birdman?
Hiss… Forget it, forget it. I hit you a bit too hard just now. Let's pretend I didn't hear that.
The old uncle first gave little Eula a hand signal, telling her to put away the "Snow-Tombed Starsilver" in her hands first.
"That's not it. I came to Watatsumi Island for tourism. You came to Watatsumi Island planning to go to Enkanomiya to find excitement?"
The Pyro Abyss Mage glanced at the Visions on little Eula and Cid, and in the end chose to say only the things he could say.
"Something like that. His Highness the Prince values me and arranged for me to come to Watatsumi Island to enter Enkanomiya to search for forbidden prehistoric information.
By the way, human, can you do me a small favor for the sake of the friendship we shared through hardship on Dragonspine?"
"To be honest, I don't help with things that harm humans."
"I still don't know what kind of person you are? Don't worry, it won't harm humans."
"Alright, then tell me."
"Before I set out, I did some information gathering. Do you know why Watatsumi Island can't grow crops?"
"Because of Enkanomiya?"
"You got it right. There are a bunch of Geovishaps in Enkanomiya. In order to improve their own living environment, these Geovishaps turned the land of Enkanomiya into something suitable for themselves — commonly known as sanctification of the land."
The red furry little brother pulled out a book from his sleeve titled "The Watatsumi Omamori Ritual That Even Abyss Mages Can Understand".
"Actually, Watatsumi Island has a sacrificial ritual called the [Watatsumi Omamori Ritual]. It requires a brave warrior to go to Enkanomiya and obtain Bloodbranch Coral to activate this ritual.
Once this ritual is activated, the land of Watatsumi Island will return to a state where crops can be grown."
