Chapter 369: Firomina
Chapter 369: Firomina
With a thought, Phield opened his Lord interface and selected the Divine Chosen tab. As expected, he found the young girl’s profile.
However, her name was displayed as a series of question marks, while her portrait and all subsequent information remained hidden.
"So I have to name her myself?"
Phield rubbed his chin before suddenly raising a finger.
"Ah, I’ve got it! Since she used my soul power, I’ll call her Phield!"
"My lord, are you still conscious? Your name is Phield!"
Ashina looked like she was on the verge of tears.
"Are you really alright? You’re the leader of Nightfall Domain. If you end up becoming an idiot, what am I supposed to do?"
In Ashina’s opinion, among all the extraordinary beings in Nightfall Domain, the intelligence ranking was crystal clear.
Lord Phield ranked first.
She, Ashina, ranked second.
Gogris ranked third.
Drakewolf ranked fourth.
Everyone else was either an idiot or a fool.
"Hahaha! Teasing you is just too much fun."
Only after Phield burst into laughter did Ashina realize she’d been tricked. She planted her hands on her hips in annoyance.
"My lord! You were making fun of me!"
Phield nearly laughed himself to death. After teasing Ashina enough, he gently smoothed the girl’s silky hair.
"Your name will be Firomina."
Firomina tilted her head slightly, seemingly unable to understand what a name meant.
The moment she received her name, her portrait appeared on the minimap, and her complete information became visible on Phield’s interface.
Name: Firomina Moon Sun
Rank: First Tier Divine Chosen of Destruction
Class: Restorer / Producer
State: Moonlight Form
Divine Artifact: The Flawless Moonflower
Effect One: Consumes the divine power stored within the Moonflower to restore mana, magic, and divine power to a designated target.
Effect Two: When placed within a territory, the Moonflower transforms into the Flawless Moon Spring, continuously generating pure, attribute free divine power. It increases the divine power recovery speed of all Divine Chosen within the territory while greatly raising the territory’s divine power density.
Product: Moon Crystals, available in Low, Medium, and High quality.
Crystals as pure as gemstones. Every night, the Moon Spring condenses Moon Crystals that can restore extraordinary power.
Divine Skills: None
Talents: None
Negative Status: Innocent Girl. Loses all combat capability and defensive ability.
Negative Status: A Soul of Patches and Mends. Combat instincts are reduced to zero. The Lord may directly assume control of her consciousness and command her actions.
Negative Status: Broken Rules. As innocent as a newborn child, she has lost most of her social abilities. She depends heavily on you. Please take good care of her.
Phield was stunned.
It was the first time he had ever seen a Divine Chosen burdened with three separate negative traits.
No wonder she seemed so soft and adorable, delicate enough to be knocked over with a gentle push.
Phield lightly pinched her cheek.
"Mmm..."
Firomina let out a soft sound before pressing herself even closer against him, curling up comfortably as though she thoroughly enjoyed it.
Her snow white feet were exposed beneath her robe. Pale blue veins could be seen across the tops of her feet, making them appear especially delicate. Her tiny toes curled together tightly, giving her an almost pitiful appearance.
Unfortunately, the rest of her body remained hidden beneath the long robe.
The passage of endless time had worn away her ability to think.
Mentally, she was little different from an infant.
She had probably been frightened earlier and had hidden in the corner, quietly crying by herself.
"It feels like I’ve suddenly gained a daughter."
Phield scratched the back of his head.
"And the clingy kind, too. It’s honestly a little embarrassing, considering I just turned eighteen."
"A daughter..."
Ashina glanced at Firomina.
For some reason, she suddenly found the girl much more agreeable.
"What’s interesting is that she has two different forms, each with its own Divine Artifact and abilities."
Phield switched to her second form.
A strangely familiar feeling immediately washed over him.
The proud tradition of Nightfall Domain had returned.
An airheaded monster with absurd stats.
Firomina Moon Sun
Rank: First Tier Divine Chosen of Destruction
Class: Calamity
State: Sunlight Patterns
Divine Artifact: Nirvana Seed
A Divine Artifact embodying the ultimate laws of power, transforming divine power into an endless source of light and flame.
Divine Skill: Solar Bombardment
Continuously saturates a designated area with relentless bombardment until it is transformed into a blazing inferno.
Talent One: Hyper Energy Core. Possesses three to five times the divine power reserves of Divine Chosen of the same tier.
Talent Two: From the Ancient Wastes. Absorbing the blood of magical beasts may lead to unexpected results.
Talent Three: Carnage Born. Reduces pure physical damage by ninety nine percent. Only attacks combining elemental power, magic, divine power, or other forms of energy can deal effective damage.
Negative Status: Magic I’ve Never Encountered. Cannot benefit from the Divine Chosen’s resistance to magical damage. All magic damage received is taken in full.
Negative Status: Rule Exclusion. Killing living beings causes backlash. After reaching a certain number of kills, she automatically returns to Moonlight Form to recover.
Negative Status: A Fragile Soul. Possesses weak independent will. The Lord may directly assume control of her consciousness and command her actions.
"It’s back. It’s all back!"
Phield cried out excitedly.
"A brainless stat monster!"
Suddenly, the adorable girl standing before him no longer seemed quite so harmless.
She was basically a walking miniature nuclear bomb.
She just wasn’t very bright.
"Let’s head back up."
Phield felt much more at ease.
Meanwhile...
More and more Imperial troops gathered around the military strongholds surrounding Rick Province.
A middle aged man dressed like an advisor straightened his sleeves before stepping forward with a composed expression.
"My lord, shouldn’t we begin our offensive? Several nobles and allied forces have already sent requests for reinforcements."
"Oh, there you go again, always in such a hurry."
The noble commander waved his hand dismissively.
"The weather is far too hot. My soldiers need time to recover before launching an attack. By the way, where are my iced water and grapes? Have they still not been prepared?"
"They’re being prepared as we speak."
The adjutant beside him bowed repeatedly.
"You’ve worked hard, my lord."
"My lord, even if we don’t reinforce the other regions, we absolutely must send troops to the border fortress. It’s the Empire’s lifeline. If the Corrupted creatures break through, the consequences will be unimaginable."
The noble commander slammed the table impatiently.
"What are you so afraid of? No matter how many Corrupted creatures get through, the Fate Lock will deal with them."
In truth, he wanted the Corrupted creatures to break through.
Unless the local nobles were wiped out, there would be no opportunity for him to expand his own territory.
Everyone throughout the Empire knew how profitable the border territories were.
The annual subsidies and military supplies alone were enough to make every noble rich beyond measure.
"Report!"
"The reconnaissance cavalry reports that the rebel army appears to be suffering a massive collapse. They’ve clearly sustained devastating losses!"
"What? Who started feasting without us?"
The noble commander instantly flew into a rage. He hurled his wine goblet aside and drew the sword from his waist.
"Soldiers! For honor! For the Empire!"
"Advance and engage the rebels head on!"
As though responding to a signal, anti rebellion forces across every front surged forward like roaring rivers, charging toward the rebel occupied territories.
Clashes erupted one after another.
Before long, they discovered that the vast majority of the occupied territories were defended by pitifully weak garrisons.
