Chapter 787 - 147. Spread Wings and Soar
Take a look at Chapter 787 of "Demi-human Girls Completion Manual": The feeling of being cared for, the sense of being constrainedâboth had transformed into the... See what happens next!
The feeling of being cared for, the sense of being constrainedâboth had transformed into the force driving Valentina to run with all her might at this very moment.She clenched her teeth and tightly gripped the feather in her hand. Beneath the gentle gazes of the Moon Princess and all the Phoenixes behind her, she ran unwaveringly along the path formed by the gradually crumbling moonlight, not looking back toward the distance toward the Illusion.
Not enough... not enough...
She ran frantically, her white hair interspersed with beads of sweat fluttering at her temples. The panting from her running no longer restrained her wanton spirit, and the shackles of reality could no longer hold back her soulâs desire for freedom...
Unbeknownst to her, the cold feather she was gripping tightly had completely disappeared. Behind her, the shadowy figure standing before the tree vanished entirely. As the moonlight completely disappeared, the base was becoming more whole piece by piece. Still, Valentina, running at her fastest pace, felt it wasnât enough.
She needed to run faster. She needed to go farther. She needed to get to Fisherâs side!
While she continued to run with her eyes closed, behind her, a pair of enormous cyan wings that seemed to have been enduring within a thick cocoon for ages suddenly burst open. The Ice hue in her eyes spread little by little, staining the fur on her back with a layer akin to frost. Her fragile form was heightened once again, becoming both graceful and powerful...
The dark patterns on her back were gradually dyed white, forming cloud-like patterns along her wings. Her ears elongated little by little, and several feathers grew close to the skin behind her ears. She still wore the black dress from her time in the Northern Realm, but she no longer seemed fragile like the old Valentina.
In her unrestrained sprint, the newly born giant wings swiftly contracted then flared open, roaring at the world it had missed for so many years. In the instant the wings beat, accompanied by a sonic boom that echoed through the Gap, she truly transformed into a Phoenix Species, with the soul of a Phoenix Species, flying into the layers of Illusion.
"Fisher!"
Ahead, she saw the simple Nali Church, the blonde nun sitting at the churchâs entrance, and of course, the wounded Fisher sprawling on the ground with Erwin about to make his move behind him.
Her pupils constricted slightly, and she dramatically unfurled her wings, causing a thunderous sonic boom in her wake, then swooped down toward Erwin like lightning.
Just as Erwin was about to make his move on Fisher, he saw the rapidly expanding shadow beneath his feet. Before he could turn around, his upper body was shattered by the frost-laden wind.
"Ka ka ka!"
The sound of frost forming spread far, shattering Erwinâs body, which then instantly reassembled. He twisted his neck slightly, looking forward surprisingly, and said,
"A complete Phoenix, this is interesting. Theyâve been extinct for so long; Iâve never seen their true form but now, fortunately, I meet one here... and itâs someone familiar."
Before Erwin, the Valentina who had unfurled her frosty giant wings was holding the equally surprised Fisher in her embrace. As Erwinâs voice rang out, the icy giant wings gradually closed in, tightening around Fisher in her arms,
"I donât care who you are, but youâd better stay away from my husband!"
Valentinaâs eyes were cold, her hawk-like giant wings trembled, seemingly ready to burst into swift violence, while in Valentinaâs arms, Fisher felt the newly grown feathery frost, which was cold, soft, and pleasant to touch.
This is the real Phoenix.
Even here, in the clearly defined Gap between reality and the Spirit Realm, the moment Fisher saw Valentina, those familiar golden subtitles still appeared before his eyes, where the previously garbled text slowly twisted and finally became recognizable
Lying in Valentinaâs arms, Fisher blinked, looking at the incredibly beautiful girl before him, momentarily at a loss for words.
