Chapter 721 Spirit Traffickers *BANG!Slamming a guy against the tree, Shiro pointed her sword at his throat."Your friends are dead. Care to explain to me why you targeted me?" Shiro asked with a sweet smile.Seeing this smile, the man felt sweat drip down his back."Spirits! We’re Spirit traffickers!"The man replied in a panic as Shiro’s sword travelled closer to his neck."Oh? Spirit traffickers huh?" Shiro raised her eyebrow. Despite her sweet expression, she was rather displeased inside.She understood that there were some sick people who would use monsters and spirits as a means of s.e.x.u.a.l relief since she had seen it before. However, she hadn’t seen it in a while so she figured that things might have changed but people will stay the same regardless.While she couldn’t stop everyone from ’purchasing’ spirits, she can at least take care of the ones that buy the most."Who are your main buyers?" Shiro asked with a glare.Noticing that the girl had dropped her smile, the man understood that she was completely furious."Ah-... er... he..""Speak properly!" Shiro demanded, slamming him against the tree one more time."KUAH!!! Ok ok! I speak I speak. We got three main buyers. All three are people with high status. Adriel Tarn, Behmut Neiha and Elin Jaheri. Adriel and Behmut are the biggest buyers of female spirits and Elin buys the most male spirits. These three dominate the market since they buy the most. The other’s can’t compare." The man replied as Shiro noted down their names."Do you know where they keep the spirits?""N-no we don’t. We just deliver and get paid for it." The man shook his head.Understanding that he was telling the truth, Shiro clicked her tongue and stabbed her sword through his head, pinning him against the tree. Follow current on novelenglish.net
"Adriel Tarn, Behmut Neiha and Elin Jaheri huh? Seems like I need to do some research on who my next targets are." Shiro muttered as her killing intent started to leak into her surroundings.Feeling this killing intent, Error started to dance around with joy as Shiro patted his head."Calm it. We’ll kill them if they’re close. If not, wait till we finish this tower ok? Don’t be hasty." Shiro reminded as Error calmed down."Good."Smiling softly, Shiro crouched towards the corpses of the traffickers and wondered about how she should do this.After a short pause, she flipped Nivlim into a reverse grip and stabbed it into the chest of the headless woman.Pulling it down, she cut through the sternum and cracked open a cavity in the centre of her chest."A human plant pot I suppose." Shiro chuckled to herself as she dropped the golden seed into the corpse.Just as the seed came into contact with the blood, small roots erupted out of the seed and started to spread themselves throughout the woman’s body.Watching the woman’s body drain at a visible pace, Shiro raised her eyebrows and couldn’t help but think that this seed was quite bloodthirsty.Wondering if this seed was an evil artefact or not, Shiro watched as the woman was drained into just skin and bones.Plucking the seed out of her body, Shiro saw white roots still connected to her body and wondered if she should cut them off.However, before she needed to do anything, the roots retracted back into the seed which made Shiro wonder about how much space was inside it to begin with.Shrugging her shoulders, she threw the husk of a corpse to the side.Just as the corpse landed next to a tree, roots erupted out of the ground and dragged the corpse under.Raising her eyebrows, Shiro wondered what that was about before planting the seed into the second human plant pot.Draining all the blood from the bodies of all 7 attackers, Shiro watched as each of them had been dragged underground.Narrowing her eyes, Shiro smiled and unsummoned her sword.

"If you’re going to take them, at least tell me beforehand dryad."Just as she said this, a figure appeared on one of the branches."Well I figured you probably wanted to get the most of the corpses before throwing them aside. Just think of me as a passer-by. Another person’s trash is someone else’s treasure." The dryad smiled.She was currently laying her body across the branch as her long jade hair dr.a.p.ed behind her.Her golden eyes narrowed at the seed in Shiro’s hands before looking at the one who had killed seven people all by herself."Feel free to take their corpses if you want, I have no more use for them." Shiro shrugged."Of course. Even these corpses serve a purpose to the forest though I must say, that child in your hands is rather picky to have only drained the blood within them and not anything else." The dryad shook her head."It’s still just a seed.""That is also true. But what kind of seed drains blood? Even if you’re a spirit, I cannot let this pass unless I know what’s going on." The dryad said as her smile faded.Looking at all the roots targeting her, Shiro simulated the battle for a moment and understood that she could probably kill the dryad with ease but she wasn’t going to do that."This is something I got from the tower and I’m not responsible for the seed draining blood. If anything, blame Gaia for giving me such an evil seed." Shiro grinned and shrugged her shoulders.Hearing this, the dryad furrowed her brows and examined the seed. Feeling the same type of energy from the tower, the dryad was confused as to why the tower would give such a malignant item to this spirit."I see... seems like I have made a mistake." The dryad sighed and dismissed the roots."Yes you have. And tell me, do you just watch every spirit get trafficked away?" Shiro asked with a small smile."No, but there was nothing I can d-"Before she could finish her sentence, Shiro flickered in front of her and placed her hand over the dryad’s mouth.Leaning close to the dryad, she glared at her with anger in her eyes."That’s an excuse. Either do your job properly or don’t come out after I kill them all. You can use your roots to restrain them, hide in the forest or even try to throw them off your trail. There’s always something you can do so don’t give me that shit." Shiro warned as her killing intent was focused entirely on the dryad. Follow current on storynovel.net
Feeling the killing intent up close, the dryad paled as she had never felt this fearful in her life."Y-you can’t kill me. The forest would p-""Try me. I’ve got a blessing from another dryad that lets me kill here. Humans don’t count as inhabitants so I still have a free slot left to kill someone." Shiro narrowed her eyes.Hearing this, the dryad widened her eyes before hastily nodding her head."I-I’m sorry I’ll try harder next time." She apologised."Don’t try harder, try your best." Shiro clicked her tongue and let go of the quivering spirit.Jumping down from the branch, Shiro glanced down at the seed and saw a thin layer of red in the bottom.Understanding that it was probably blood and that she’ll need to kill a lot more people, Shiro figured she might as well look for three main buyers of spirits and take care of them.###"I like this girl already." Gaia chuckled seeing Shiro tell the dryad to blame her for giving her a bloodthirsty seed."She’s a treat isn’t she?" Nyx grinned."Mn. I’m surprised that she figured out so quickly." Gaia smiled as she placed down the empty teacup."Yup. She knows your myth after all. I think if you two meet, you’ll have some fun together. Both of you are calm and warm at times but deep down you’re both battle junkies. Well for you you’re more of a spectator of the chaos that ensues. Another?" Nyx shrugged as she offered Gaia another cup of tea."Sure. Well for me I’m not exactly the best at combat so I can only watch by the side. If I could, you know I would be fighting gods left, right and centre." Gaia replied while taking the refilled cup of tea."Though I must say that I’m surprised. I didn’t expect my ex husband to have a shard of him to be consumed by the little pet she had kept by her side. It’s rather interesting isn’t it?" Gaia said while looking at Error that was on Shiro’s hand."Mn, it’s something gifted to her by the system. So who’s side are you taking in all of this Gaia?" Nyx asked."Naturally it’ll be the side of this girl. Chaos seems to follow her wherever she goes so it’ll be fun to watch what happens." Gaia laughed.Hearing this, Nyx didn’t say anything and only smiled at the response. Thank you very much for visiting our website. We have added "Comment" section, feel free to share your thoughts! ↓↓↓
