Monster Girl Ranching in Another World-Chapter 316 Drown On Dry Land, I’m Not Going To Eat You!
"What are you doing here?" I asked Nushi in confusion.
"You disappeared from everyone's senses, and this was the last place that I could find any traces of you. The moment I got here, these three spit out a portal, then you followed.
That still didn't explain why she was red. The only other Rank E Demons were Nixi and Beeno, but they were both a darker shade.
I looked over at the other three that had come from the rings with me. They all looked to be in rough shape, but I guess we all had to be thankful we were alive.
I was about to ask about the rings as I tried to sit up, but there was a flash from behind Nushi. Libra appeared from the light, but her body had changed.
[Finally! I feel like I can finally breathe again!] Harold cheered in my head.
That caused me to grin as I looked at Libra, whose breasts were no longer the size of basketballs. While I liked how she looked before, these cannons would be easier to play with.
Libra walked up to stand beside Nushi, smiling at both of us. She was holding four golden rings in her hands, and Libra lowered herself to my height.
"You look like you and the others have a rough trip, but you defeat Carnage. Not that I doubted you, but I think Sagittarius's son had a big part in your success! Regardless, these are yours, but we have a lot of work to do before you are able to control a tenth… of my power?" Libra told me valiantly, but her tone changed quickly when she got to the end.
Libra dropped the rings on my lap and then stood back up quickly, trying to wave her hand. Nothing was happening, but I knew what the problem was.
[I guess this is her first time being summoned by someone this weak, haha!] Harold laughed.
That was rude, but I couldn't really argue. I still was just a child in this world, and I had much to learn.
Thankfully, Nushi put a hand on Libra's shoulder. The Astral goddess turned to my beautifully demonic bookworm, who smiled at her but shook her head no.
"Libra, your powers are gone until Zack gets stronger. You will have to teach him how to use your rings, and you will both grow together," Nushi explained, but the use of Libra's name seemed to shock her.
"How do you know my name already?" Libra asked, narrowing her eyes at Nushi. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m
"This is Nushi, and she has the ability to read minds and into people's past. Still, what is with the change in skin color?" I asked.
"I freed the manticore and Tiga from the Demon King's grip. When I woke up, I looked like this, and my demonic abilities had changed," Nushi explained.
While she did, I sent Wataluga over to the other three that were still looking rough. The Water Primal had helped me heal most of the internal severe damage. Now my body's healing could take over.
"Well, you look great! I will get two of my Primals to escort these people back, but since you are here, do you mind coming with me?" I asked Nushi, and she nodded.
"Yes, I don't mind coming to spend some alone time. I might help keep you out of trouble as well!" Nushi said with a grin, and I rolled my eyes before turning to the others.
"What is this thing?!" Chey called out as Wataluga poured out of my body to heal the group from the rings.
"I am a person, just like you!" Wataluga growled as he formed his body.
"No, you are not like me! You are a walking lake! Get back from me, you elemental beast!" Chey shouted from his horse body but then shifted back to his Horse-man form.
Wataluga ignored him and walked over to Dani and Howl, who were both lying silently. The element placed his hand on each of them, and part of his body leaked out.
Both the blue wolf pup and the black and orange spiky caterpillar girl were covered in a thin layer of water. Both of them let out relaxed sighs as they were covered from the neck down.
"There is no way that monster is going to get me! I didn't just get out of those infernal rings just to drown on dry land! No! Get back from, NEEEEE!" Chey screamed as Wataluga dove for him with no warning.
Even with his injuries from the Soup Can Portal, Chey was able to dodge Wataluga. While this surprised my elemental, I had already released Grogvel.
The place where Chey had jumped to open up like when I had trained with the earth elemental. Chey didn't see the hole in the ground and screamed like a dying animal.
"Calm down, I am not going to eat you!" Grogvel rumbled as he swallowed the Horse-Man.
"Help! Help! I thought you were my friend Zack!" Chey screamed at me.
I rolled my eyes and watched as Wataluga poured into the hole that Grogvel created to trap Chey. I turned away from the scene and slowly picked myself off the ground.
I grabbed the rings before they fell from my lap as I got up, but I was confused by them. All four of the rings looked the exact same; nothing more than golden bands.
"How am I supposed to tell which one of these is yours?" I asked Libra, who was whispering with Nushi.
"When you put them on, you will know. The rings can be worn, but you will activate the battle for control if you try to access the other rings' power. This is not a battle for one of us to take over your body, but if you lose, you will be stuck in the ring," Libra explained, and I nodded and slipped the rings on.
Each of them fit perfectly on my right hand, and I could feel each one as I slipped the rings on. Scorpio, Sagittarius, and Capricorn, but Libra was the only one that I could feel power coming from.
