Chapter 263 - The Yandere Ursula (1)
"Is that the place where we are going?" Mizaki asked in a slow voice as the four of them peered at a large palace hanging in the air many kilometers away.
It was a multicolored palace with a garden as the four of them glanced at its beauty. The walls were made from marble of different colors. The surprising thing was that the palace had a continent below it but perhaps calling it a continent was wrong.
It was more of a very large island where the four of them were standing.
"There's a chance that someone might be keeping guard with their spiritual energy and getting any more closer to the palace would be suicide. I can try teleporting us directly to the palace but that would be troublesome too. We will have to find a better strategy for this." Kai said as the others nodded and kept glancing at the palace.
One of the most powerful and popular techniques of defending your palace while finding the enemy locations was to use the spiritual sense of the most powerful cultivator available.
This was the most effective and the easiest way to know the enemy's location. So there was a high possibility that Lucas was using the same technique.
"We will observe the palace for a few days. You guys go and keep an eye on the palace from other directions and we will meet here in a week's time and compare what we found out. But remember to not get too close to the palace." Kai said as the three girls went their separate ways.
'Now that I am here, I wonder what will happen if we meet this harem overlord.' Kai thought as he went to a tree and sat down near it while keeping watch on the palace.
There wasn't anything else for him to do except think about a few things as night slowly approached closer. But when the moon appeared in the sky, Kai felt something inside his body change.
His cultivation suddenly rose to the golden divinity realm as his eyes widened in shock.
'I didn't know that this ability was this overpowered!' Kai thought while staring at the moon.
The elemental ruler of dark had one very special ability that was completely unique to them. The elemental ruler of dark would always be three times stronger in the night as compared to the morning.
And because of this ability, Kai's cultivation was now at the golden divinity realm. This was a pretty handy ability to have in case he was ever stuck in a dangerous situation.
"But the question is, will this ability be enough to battle him?" Kai asked himself while looking at the palace in the distance.
And like that, a week passed by.
"Guess we will be infiltrating the palace tonight." Kai said with a sigh since none of them had seen any major changes taking in the palace.
Kai had been hoping that Lucas would send out some more members of his order to check up on the continent of water but nothing like that had happened.
Though it would have been a very good thing that could have happened since they would have reduced the number of guards Lucas would have by killing the members of the order.
"All of you better prepare for a do-or-die battle." Kai said as Hela and Mizaki nodded but Inari just raised her eyebrows
"I don't need to do that since I am just here as a tag-along. I can always run off to safety so why should I risk my life?" Inari asked as Kai nodded.
There wasn't any point in forcing Inari to do something that she didn't want to do. After all, she didn't owe him anything.
"You can stay here if you want to." Kai said as Inari nodded.
"Kai, if you don't mind, I have some questions that I want to ask you." Mizaki said awhile looking towards him as Kai nodded.
"Follow me." Mizaki said while dashing away as Kai followed her. Hela looked at this with narrowed eyes as she remembered the questions that Mizaki had asked her while Kai was facing the side effects of the pill.

"Hela, that's your name right?" Hela turned around as she heard Mizaki's voice calling her out.
"Yes, my name is Hela. Do you have something to ask from me?" Hela asked as she came face to face with the girl who supposedly had Kazemi inside her as a spirit.
"I just wanted to ask you a few questions." Mizaki said as Hela raised her eyebrows.
"Go ahead and ask me anything you want." Hela said as Mizaki nodded.
"How long have you known Kai for?" Mizaki suddenly asked as Hela looked surprised.
"Why do you want to know about that?" She asked as Mizaki shrugged.
"I had been curious about it for some while since I never got to know how much time Kazemi had spent with Kai." Mizaki replied as Hela tried to put her time spent with Kai in an approximate value.
"I probably spent many centuries in total with him. Honestly, time is something that's not easy to keep track of especially when you have lived for as long as I have." Hela replied as Mizaki nodded.
"Then can you tell me what you like about Kai the most?" Mizaki asked as Hela looked confused.
"What I like the most about Kai? Why do you want to know that?" She asked in a confused to tone as she didn't understand why Mizaki would wanna know something like this
"I am just seeing if it's different for everyone and whether what I have accumulated is correct but I guess you can't help me here." Mizaki replied as she walked away while muttering to herself.
Hela could only blink in confusion as she saw Mizaki walk away.
***
Back in the present, Hela still couldn't figure out what Mizaki meant by it and now that she was seeing her go away with Kai, she had a really bad feeling in her gut.
'Why do I feel as though something is about to go wrong?' Hela asked herself as Kai and Mizaki had gone far enough that she had to focus every hard to see them.
And without a thought, Hela suddenly started following them.
