【Beginning】
- Aqua: ...My head hurts. Am I drunk? But yesterday I just had some tea...Oh my! Where am I?
Aqua found herself in a dark dave and she was trapped in a cage in the middle of water.
This familiar scene had reminded her of the purification quest in the past, which made her feel scared instantly. She tried hard to open the cage, but it was all in vain.
At this moment, someone came cover. It was the priest, who still covered his nose with sleeve as usual.
- Priest: Wake up so soon. You’re much stronger than I expected.
- Aqua: Let me out, you evil! You deceive me by disguising as a clergy. God will punish you!
- Priest: Sorry, I’m an atheist actually. Your threat doesn’t work to me. The only one I’m afraid of is you.
With a snap, bubbles appeared on the surface of water. Next second, four piranhas were gazing at Aqua ferociously.
- Aqua: Wait wait wait, what do you want from me?
- Priest: In the previous battle, I noticed that you possess some kind of holy power that can restrain the demons.
- Priest: It arouses my interest, so I invite you to do an experiment for me.
- Aqua: How dare you use the goddess in your experiment. You’re much more shameless than Kazuma!
- Priest: Haha, save your strength. A challenging test is coming.
- Aqua: No!! Let me out! Please——!
- Priest: I’ll come back later. Let see if you survive then.
The priest left her alone with the piranhas, which then swam towards the cage with speed and kept biting!
- Aqua: Why I have to face this thing again! Ahhh! Oh no! The cage is not gonna hold!
【End】
- Aqua: Wheeze...Finally they’re gone. I have to find a way out. Otherwise, I’ll die— —!
At this moment, someone was leaping in the air leveraging on rocks and swept across the water to the cage. It was Chris!
- Aqua: Chris!
- Chris: I should have expected this.
- Aqua: Get me out! I don’t want to stay in here.
- Chris: Calm down. I just stole the key from the priest.
Chris used the key to unlock its door and pulled Aqua up to the top of the cage. As they tried to jump back to the ground, the piranhas showed up again. It seemed the priest would send some substitutes regularly to prevent them from escaping.
- Aqua: What an evil! I’m mad now, really mad!
Aqua gathered magic power; dazzling blue light started covering her body. Aura coiled upwards and she stood on the cage to chant.
- Aqua: All my followers in this world. The Goddess of Water, Aqua, commands you!
- Aqua: Answer my request, my prayer and show the world thy power! Sacred Create Water!
A destructive water column poured down from the sky, completely crushing the piranhas and the pool installment in the blink of an eye. Looking at Aqua’s mightiness, Chris was stunned.
- Aqua: I have to show that evil priest a tough lesson, to let him know the true power of the goddess!
