It’s Fine To Reincarnate To A Flame - Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Peculiar Disappearance

In fact, the Saintess was rather frustrated at this moment too. It was not because the battle was too effortless for them to win but because she had learned about her own abilities.

In fact, the Saintess had basically been making quick progress in her cultivation, but this was also why she rarely encountered any setbacks. This time, she had suffered a huge loss.

She thought, ‘If only I’m more competent.’

No matter what, the Aquila Tribe and her found what happened to be a huge pity. However, it did not last for long.

The Saintess suddenly discovered a giant ball of flames floating near her. It was undoubtedly Tang Sen, whom the Dwarfs really wanted to see.

The Saintess was shocked when she saw Tang Sen, though she knew that the incident that occurred today was considered trivial to Tang Sen. However, the effects that it caused were not considered a good thing.

Tang Sen actually felt exasperated after comprehending the entire process of what happened. Although the Saintess had been a little rash, nobody would be able to calm down in the face of such a situation.

Tang Sen did not leave any backup plans because of what happened previously. In the beginning, they were hostile to the Dwarfs—whose intentions were obviously not as simple as discussing the matter at hand.

Blue lotus flowers began to grow out of the Dwarfs’ bodies hysterically. When they grew to the size of the Dwarfs, they began to burn.

In the beginning, the Dwarfs obviously didn’t expect the blue lotus flowers to be this powerful. What made them even more alarmed was the fact that they felt a burning sensation when the lotus flowers appeared.

However, that burning sensation soon disappeared and became numbness, followed by a stinging pain. The Dwarfs were extremely familiar with flames, but when they encountered these flames, they had no choice but to scream while being at a loss for what to do.

As they screamed, they gradually turned into ashes.

The Saintess had seen this move of Tang Sen’s more than once, but as Tang Sen used it more and more, the Blue Lotus Sword Song’s power increased bit by bit. Although the increase was insignificant at first, there was basically nobody who would be confident that they could escape under such flames.

“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for burning a member of the Dwarfs Tribe. Energy Points +5,000.”

“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for burning a teacup. Energy Points +1,500.”

“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for burning a member of the Dwarfs Tribe. Energy Points +5,000.”

…

“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for burning a member of the Dwarfs Tribe. Energy Points +5,000.”

Tang Sen could still hear the noisy beeping from the system in his ears, but he felt rather moved.

Without the system’s existence, he likely would’ve been controlled by those Dwarfs and ended up as a material for forging. Of course, if the system did not enhance his abilities, Tang Sen would’ve been extinguished by water in the beginning.

As she stared at Tang Sen—who was hanging his head low peculiarly—the Saintess actually knew that one of the main reasons why things had developed to this point was her impulsiveness.

“Get up.” Tang Sen looked at the Saintess in front of him, who was a little feeble-looking. He couldn’t get used to it. Nonetheless, he couldn’t help but comfort her. “I know what happened today has nothing to do with you.”

In fact, Tang Sen was right. He was well aware that the Saintess had actually tried her best to fight with all her might, so she shouldn’t be blamed.

It was indeed so.

Tang Sen had also understood this.

“Seems like we’ve formed a feud with the Dwarfs.” The Aquila Tribe’s Chief seemed to have found it a pity, but it made sense for him to feel that way.

Despite saying so, the Chief nonetheless got his people to clear up the traces of the Dwarfs’ appearance. Although it was not a major matter, the Dwarfs’ disappearance would definitely cause others to think of him.

…

Although many days had passed, nothing major happened. No Dwarfs showed up at their door either.

After so many days, the Saintess looked for Tang Sen again. The Saintess was hard-working and had put in a lot of effort into cultivating. If not for the fact that there was something she couldn’t settle, she definitely wouldn’t come looking for Tang Sen.

“What happened?” Tang Sen had been silently burning some dispensable things the past few days and had now gained some power. However, the increase in his power and strength was undoubtedly slow.

But Tang Sen had never given up. The small increments would ultimately add up to a huge number.

“Someone has been tailing us these past few days. In the very beginning, we thought that some people just didn’t want to leave this place,” said the Saintess after much deliberation. “However, it’s indeed not appropriate for someone to go missing every day.”

“Were the humans behind this?” Tang Sen asked affirmatively, clearly having already expected this kind of situation. However, he could tell that it might not be the humans from the Saintess’s expression. If it were humans who had done this, the Saintess wouldn’t have such an expression.

“In the beginning, I thought that humans were the ones who did it, so I specifically got someone to stay on guard for several days. I also asked around and found out that there hadn’t been any humans in the past few days from those that I’m close to.”

Tang Sen listened to what the Saintess said with a look of praise in his eyes. He was very satisfied with the Saintess’s way of handling matters these days.

“It’s someone from the Capricorn Tribe,” said the Saintess with some tears on her face. The investigation’s outcome was clearly beyond her expectations. “After the Capricorn Tribe took our people away, they ate them up.”

After saying that, the Saintess finally burst into tears. She had clearly been suppressing her feelings regarding this matter for a long time.

Tang Sen could perceive her anger and melancholy.
