Chapter 727: Chapter 508 Asina is Looking Forward (2)

The Mermaid’s Heart is now in hand.

"How could it be so fast?"

Asina, too, was taken aback by the news.

Rose Vesper’s capability was even stronger than she had imagined. Even Asina had only heard legends about the Endless Sea and had never ventured there.

She had thought that Rose Vesper would be trapped in the Endless Sea for a long time, and might even perish there.

Yet now, in less than a month, Rose Vesper had contacted her to announce the Heart of the Mermaid was found... Most importantly, since Rose Vesper was able to reach out to her, it meant that the woman had successfully left that enigmatic sea.

Less than a month to enter the Endless Sea, locate the Mermaid’s Heart, and safely leave the place?

No matter how she pondered it, it all seemed a little too exaggerated, even making Asina wonder if the Endless Sea was as terrifying as the legends suggested.

Though shocked at heart, Asina quickly responded, "Are you certain that what you’ve found is the heart of a Mermaid, not a Fishman’s?"

"Of course..." A weird, munching sound came through the receiver.

That weird feeling even caused Asina to shiver a little.

What on earth is this person eating?

It couldn’t be the Mermaid... That seemed unlikely. Although Rose Vesper was no saint, she was known for her cleanliness.

"I can distinguish between Fishman and Mermaid. I would never gamble with Lord Jie Luo’s life. You know that very well, don’t you, Asina?"

Asina remained silent.

Of all the former Hero Team members, if anyone was most committed to resurrecting Jie Luo, apart from Rose Vesper, she couldn’t name another.

Unlike herself, Silf, and Catherine, who were moles within the team, Rose Vesper was genuinely devoted to resurrecting Jie Luo.

She was filled with greed and a desire for power, even aspiring to climb to the position of the Holy Court Pope... but for Rose Vesper, pursuing power was only to control greater and more powerful forces which would significantly benefit the resurrection of Jie Luo.

Satisfying her own lust for power was just a secondary effect.

Since Rose Vesper confirmed she had obtained the Heart of the Mermaid, there could be no mistake.

A smile began to play upon Asina’s lips. It seemed like the scene Qin Chu had been longing to witness would soon unfold.

But now, with Qin Chu and Antasia heading to the Ice Duchy, even though the show was about to start, they had no choice but to wait.

It was only fitting to add a touch of urgency to Rose Vesper’s impatience, the more anxious she was, the more exhilarated she’d be at the resurrection of Jie Luo, and the more merciless the fall into Hell when the time came.

Thinking about it made her quite expectant.

"I apologize, I haven’t finished my part yet," Asina said, rubbing the storage ring on her finger guiltily, where the last Soul Fragment of Jie Luo was kept.

"I haven’t found the last piece of Lord Jie Luo’s Soul Fragment, and it might take me a while longer."

On a small boat floating on the surface of the sea, Rose Vesper’s eyebrows instantly furrowed, her displeasure visible on her face.

Useless trash, trash, trash... Garbage. What qualifies this riffraff to stand beside Lord Jie Luo?

She had braved the Endless Sea, and Asina hadn’t even found the last Soul Fragment. Of what use was she?

Of course, the irritation and scorn inside could absolutely not be picked up by Asina, as their cooperation breaking apart could lead to a terrible situation, given that the Hero’s Blood in Asina’s possession was still very valuable.

Considering this, although Rose Vesper had little regard for Asina, she still made an effort to comfort her in as gentle a voice as possible, "Don’t worry, Ms. Asina, take your time."

"We’ve been preparing for so long, endured days of agony, and now hope is right before our eyes. We can wait. Don’t rush and do not put yourself in danger."

Asina’s smile grew even broader. Hope?

For you, perhaps that will be an unprecedented despair.

Qin Chu, that man, is really cruel, able to concoct such a vicious and wicked plan to torment Rose Vesper.

"How much longer do you think you need?" While comforting, Rose Vesper was obviously very concerned about the progress.

"About a month, If I have another month, I should be able to find it. You know, Lord Jie Luo’s Soul Fragment is just a tiny crystal, and it’s incredibly difficult to find something so small in the vast mountains. Don’t worry, I will do my utmost," Asina replied with a smile.

A month?

That seemed too long.

Just as Rose Vesper had said, she had waited far too long and was unwilling to continue waiting.

If possible, she even wished she knew Asina’s location to help her search, but Asina, this cunning and vigilant woman, probably didn’t want to meet, right?

Never mind.

Just wait.

A month wasn’t all too long; it would pass after enduring a bit longer.

Now was the perfect time to assimilate the Authority obtained from the Sloth Witch.
