Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild

Chapter 821 - 396: The One Loved by the Fire Spirits (Part 3)

"Oh, we also talked about Othella.""What did you say?" This was something Li Ang was concerned about.

"Didn’t Othella say before that she wanted Mesa and them to get rid of their obsessions and stop being Undead, to completely die?"

Zoe’s description wasn’t at all poetic; she spoke about the concept of liberation and afterlife rigidly, but her understanding was completely aligned with reality.

Nebis has no concept of reincarnation; when people die, their bodies decompose into fundamental units of the Material Dimension, and their spirits dissipate, re-entering the world’s cycle.

"Mesa told me that Othella was very good to them, not like she said."

Zoe continued, "Othella helped many people in the Divine Hall; at the time, some even secretly speculated she was an incarnation of the Goddess. Later, after she died, they learned that Othella was blessed by the Goddess."

Li Ang was thus completely certain why the Purgatory Spirits remaining on Lupus Island were all girls, because they were originally connected to the Molten Mountain Star Soul.

They were people helped by the Gentle Island God; perhaps in the unseen realm, they connected with Hedaya’s will through Othella, allowing the power of the Star Soul to reshape them into Purgatory Spirits.

"Indeed, quite a few companions were liberated from their obsessions with Othella’s help and turned to ashes, completely departing. But they are different; they actually no longer have many obsessions; having lived under Othella’s help for years, they’ve let go, but now they are more worried about Othella."

Li Ang sensed the magic power fluctuations beside him; he looked up and saw the Purgatory Spirits eavesdropping nearby.

Now discovered, the three Fire Spirits didn’t hide anymore, coming forward, gesturing with their hands and feet.

At this moment, he understood their meaning; they were steadfastly expressing that they thought just as Zoe described.

From the words expressed through Zoe’s mouth by these Fire Spirit Maidens, Li Ang gained a deeper understanding of Othella.

The Beast eared Maiden wasn’t just helping with words; she’d personally stay with them, living like family and friends. The reason these Purgatory Spirits retained obsessions was due to unhappy pasts, many from poor relationships with family and friends.

Othella’s companionship softened their hearts, and given the separation by death, there wasn’t much left to dwell on.

Instead, Othella herself, what should she do? The Purgatory Spirits began to worry for her.

She always felt useless, but unknowingly, she’d already been adored by the many Fire Spirits.

"Come to think of it, she’s always helping others, never really enjoying herself. Didn’t they say her family often left her aside? She’s helped so many people, she deserves to be happy too." Zoe said.

Mesa, on the side, waved a fist, seemingly to express: Well said, well said!

Li Ang suddenly understood why these Fire Spirit Maidens had led the way before.

"Do you all want us to take her away from Lupus Island too?"

Mesa and the other Purgatory Spirits nodded in response.

At the dinner table, everyone cautiously communicated with Othella, afraid to scare the timid young girl, but the entire dinner process was generally pleasant, and she gradually was able to communicate with everyone without being startled.

After dinner, Li Ang sat with Farina, taking out the box Mort had entrusted him.

"Are you opening it now? Do you think the timing is right?" Farina asked.

"It might still be a bit early from what he entrusted, but I think opening it now can help me plan what to do next."
