In the world of anime and manga, the best partners

Taking advantage of this opening, Esdeath loosened her grip and performed a backflip to get away from Hazel, because she had achieved her goal!

"Indeed, it's quite good!"

Heather did not pursue, but instead focused all her attention on her left hand, the hand that Esdeath had just entangled.

It was only a few seconds, but Heather's hand was completely turned into an ice sculpture, making it extremely difficult to move.

"Is this the power to control ice?"

It's hard to imagine that Esdeath, after becoming a Goldborn, actually gained power similar to her future Teigu.

Crydella felt a pang of emotion. Even though she had completely altered the plot, everything that happened to Esdeath was trying to tell her... that fate had never changed!

Although Esdeath has become a member of the Golden Clan, she is still Esdeath!

P.S.: I originally wanted Esdeath to spit ice, but then I thought it would be a bit strange, so I'll postpone it, haha.

"Impressive ability. For someone like you, this is a complete transformation."

Looking at her frozen left hand, Hazel was indeed somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected Esdeath to regain the ability to control ice, and it was an ability unique to Esdeath herself...

"Thank you for the compliment."

Esdeath still held basic respect for Heather, after all, Heather was the strongest under Crydella and the person she respected most.

As for Kelvin…

Please, is Lady Crydella someone I can approve of?

Who am I?

Before Esdeath could finish speaking, Hazel used her left hand to shatter all the ice on her arm, a casual gesture that made Esdeath's eyelids twitch.

"That's enough!"

A young voice came from the side, and as Crydella walked over, the battle came to an end, because Crydella had gotten the answer she wanted.

Esdeath's physical abilities have improved considerably, but the most crucial factor is that she gained the special abilities of a Goldborn. Regardless of the strength of these abilities, it at least demonstrates that Goldborns can be mass-produced.

With the combination of golden blood and the power of Tarranton, it is enough to make a person with a strong will become a Golden Blood. This power can even be passed on to their offspring, making them Golden Blood as well!

In any case, Krydella is very satisfied now.

As long as the soldiers under your command undergo repeated training and battles, it is almost inevitable that some of them will develop a strong will. While they may not reach the level of Esdeath, they will certainly become weaker members of the Golden Clan.

Then I will be able to build an army composed of Golden Blood, just like the original Crydella!

That's right, that's what Crydella really thought.

Although the system hasn't interfered much with Krystalla since she came to this world, that doesn't mean the system doesn't exist.

Crydella remembered that after the mission in the current world ended, there would be an evaluation of her role.

What is an assessment?

The system didn't give a direct answer, but Crydella thought that besides her own acting, there must be other external factors at play. For example, the Golden Clan army?

According to the storyline of Onpharos, Crydella sacrificed five hundred Golden Bloods for the trial of the law!

Then myself...

Forget it, now is not the time to think about these things!

Ceryl sighed helplessly as she looked at Esdeath, whose face was full of anticipation. Then she said seriously, "What I said before still stands. What kind of reward do you want, Lord Cold Shadow?"

"As long as it's not excessive, it can basically be achieved!"

Crydella initially wanted to grant any request, but when she thought of a scene from a Scott comic, she added a restriction, otherwise she wouldn't know what Esdeath would want.

If she were to choose him, wouldn't she be at a huge disadvantage?

These words truly invigorated Esdeath; she never expected that Lord Caesar would actually intend to grant her wish!

However, just as Esdeath was pondering what she should want, Crydella and Heather's expressions changed simultaneously.

"Oh? A guest has actually arrived at this time. It seems that someone finally couldn't hold back any longer!"

With a cold gaze directed outside the castle, Esdeath immediately realized that this was an enemy attack!

The crucial moment was just around the corner, but those blind fools had to choose this exact time to make their move.

Esdeath gritted her teeth; if Crydella hadn't been there, her expression would probably have been contorted.

"Judging from your expression, you seem quite dissatisfied with this matter, Han Yingjue?"

Esdeath's anger was naturally noticed by Crydella, who simply handed the whole matter over to her.

"Use this newfound power to eliminate those shameless invaders. After they are all wiped out, come to the bathroom with Sword Banner Lord."

"Now that you are a Golden Descendant, you are qualified to bathe with us. Enjoy it when the time comes!"

Caesar flicked his sleeve and walked away without a trace in Esdeath's sight, while Esdeath seemed stunned and couldn't react for a long time.

Esdeath only realized what Lord Caesar had just said when a cool little hand touched her cheek.

A bath?

This is the greatest blessing!

"Since Caesar has given the order, I will go and prepare hot water."

"Blue Fish, don't keep us waiting too long!"

Heather's words had already made it clear that Caesar was about to change and bathe, and that he would allow Esdeath to enter. However, before entering, Esdeath had a small task: to completely defeat the enemy forces outside the castle!

If Esdeath is fast enough, she can naturally catch this bath. But if she's too slow, Caesar and Hazel will already be finished... and then taking a bath will be meaningless for Esdeath.

"Leave it to me!"

"A bunch of blind intruders, daring to launch a sneak attack on Lord Caesar at this time! I, Esdeath, will surely annihilate them all!"

Ugh!

Seeing Esdeath's excited expression, Hazel couldn't help but sigh and reminded her, "Don't kill them all. Remember to leave some to gather intelligence and find out who the mastermind is."

"I understand, Lady Hathaway. Please take my clothes to the bathroom; I'll be there shortly!"

"Then Caesar and I eagerly await your triumphant return!"

Watching Esdeath leave excitedly, Hazel inexplicably conjured up the image of a certain bearded man in her mind.

In ancient times, Guan Yu famously killed Hua Xiong while the wine was still warm. So, in this alternate world, Esdeath should be able to take care of those guys before her clothes get soaked by the bathroom steam, right?

After all, she is no longer an ordinary person, but Han Yingjue, who possesses the blood of gold!

A few days later, the empire indeed received the result of the test.

The tens of thousands of troops sent to the north were completely wiped out by the enemy in just one night, and the enemy did not seem to be many.

"Looking at it this way, the Northern Kingdom does indeed have an opponent I should be wary of... Do you want to become another version of me? That depends on your ability!"

Minister Ernest listened to his subordinates' reports while eating a chicken leg, a terrifying smile even appearing on his face.

"Send the order to General Najendan, saying that a powerful force has emerged within the sphere of influence of the Northern Kingdom, which is very likely to threaten the safety of the Empire."

"If I give her an army of 30, she should be able to eliminate that threat within a month, right?"

If Najenda cannot do it…

Then let's just hand her over to some interesting guys. She may look a bit tomboyish, but she has a good figure, right?

Kerritt & Hazel / Scarlet Eyes: Chapter 30 Loyalty Revealed

"After my blood turned gold, I became even stronger. Is this why Lady Crydella and Lady Heather are so powerful?"

Although the army sent by the Empire was large in number, Esdeath was no longer an ordinary little girl, but a Golden Blood who could control frost.

An army of 50,000 men was frozen by Esdeath in a single encounter, with over 40,000 of them unable to put up any resistance.

As the image of Hazel killing 60,000 people with her sword skills gradually replayed in Esdeath's mind, she realized that Hazel had held back.

What I could only do with ice pillars, Hazel could do with just two swords. The difference is indeed too great!

I must grow up quickly and become someone like Hazel, so that I can stay by Lord Caesar's side forever!

Although Esdeath doesn't know the source of this power, she can infer from the usual conversations between Crydella and Hathaway that it might be the power of "god".

After all, Crydella had inadvertently uttered the word "demigod," so Esdeath could only think in that direction, and her guess was probably pretty accurate.

Esdeath then lowered her head and looked at the dozen or so men huddled together. They were all the attackers who had come earlier, and judging from their uniforms... they should be officers?

Normally, Esdeath would definitely try to interrogate these people thoroughly and pry some useful information out of them.

But now, Esdeath had more important matters to attend to in the castle, and she couldn't afford to waste her time on these useless people. After confirming that they had come from the Empire to eliminate Cerrida, Esdeath immediately imprisoned them and returned in triumph.

"In that case, Lord Caesar will surely praise me greatly, won't he?"

Esdeath subconsciously scratched the back of her neck. Although it felt a little itchy, it didn't matter to her, who was anxious to get to Crydella's side as soon as possible.

Little did anyone know, somewhere unseen, a strange change was quietly taking place on the back of Esdeath's neck, where she had just been scratching an itch.

Esdeath's once fair and snow-white neck was marked with small red marks from the pressure of her nails.

But these red marks only appeared for a few seconds before gradually turning into a sea-blue color, and finally growing into special patterns resembling scales...

"Hmm, very good!"

In the bathroom, Krystal showed an expression of enjoyment, and her usual dignified demeanor disappeared.

After all, apart from her and Heather in another body, there was no need to pretend. The best thing was to enjoy the comfort brought by the hot water.

but…

Krystal looked at Hathaway's stomach instinctively. She and Hathaway had been soaking in the water for almost ten minutes. Unexpectedly, the seawater in Hathaway's stomach was gradually producing bubbles under the influence of the surrounding hot water.

what is this?

The human body boils water?

Ordinary people certainly couldn't withstand the high temperatures, but the Golden Descendants... must be incredibly powerful, right? At least when Wan Di and Bai E were competing in the hot springs, they withstood extremely high temperatures.

dong dong!

Before Crydella could relax for long, a knock came from outside the door. The only person who could disturb her at this time was Esdeath.

"About twelve minutes? Come in, Han Yingjue!"

He mentally estimated the time; it had been about this long since he and Esdeath separated. He hadn't expected Esdeath to act so quickly, managing to wipe out the intruders in such a short time.

It seems that the Golden Blood has greatly enhanced her... but this is only the initial stage. Although Esdeath has become a Golden Blood, the blood in her body is not very stable.

Just as Crydella said, Esdeath will have to drink a liter of Heather's seawater every day for at least the next month, plus a small amount of Crydella's golden blood.

Only when this month is completely over will Esdeath become a true and complete Golden Blood!

click!

As the door was pushed open, Esdeath, wrapped in a bath towel, excitedly entered the bathroom.

"It's so warm..."

This is, after all, the northern land, and Esdeath had just been fighting in the snow.

Although the time was short, the body was inevitably affected by the cold air from the outside. Now that I was able to enter the bathroom, I naturally felt an unprecedented sense of comfort.

Moreover, among those weapons that were faintly visible, Esdeath was able to pinpoint the two white bodies!

So you don't use bath towels anymore?

“You’ve finally arrived, Lord Cold Shadow.” Ignoring Esdeath, who was slightly stunned, Ceryldella immediately stood up from the bath and walked towards the bench placed to the side. “Come with me.”

Crydella didn't care at all that Esdeath had seen her body naked. After all, she was a queen, so how could she feel ashamed just because she was seen naked?

Moreover, Esdeath is also a young girl, and her strength is not as great as Crydella's, so there is no need to worry about her being pinned against the wall.
