Ten Meritorious Spirit Leaders II - Mei'er's Origin - Floral Empire

"I also felt it... We have to go now and follow it! This is urgent... This has never happened for at least a couple hundred and thousands of years"

A man with a sleek face and piercing fierce yellow eyes spoke in slight fear. His nose is extremely pointy and rocky scales cover around his eyes and into his temples

He has sleek black hair but with spiky red hair in the middle. His arms has reptilian scales, as well as his legs, and he has a large scaled tail that splits into two tails

He is the Basilisk King, representing the Serpentine Faction of the Spiritual Animal Kingdom in the Spirit World, who is named as B'kuryank

"Scintillar, scan the entire Spirit World"

"On it!"

A man with a large stature spoke and ordered a small girl. The man had hulking clothes and coats layered on top of himself while he has a very thick yellow and brown hair that's almost look like a mane

His hair is very spiky like a porcupine. He has bushy eyebrows and also fierce brown eyes. He has tail that's two times longer than his height. The tail looked like a cat's with a bushy tip

He is the Warbeast Emperor, representing the Beastial Empyrean Faction of the Spiritual Animal Kingdom, who is named as Leonis

He had his arms crossed when he stood up and he has a face full of restlessness as his beastial instincts were hurting him

The small girl jumped up high and reached the sky. A blazing orange wing spread apart behind her waist and a sonar wave bursted from her that spread through the sky

She has long brown hair and red tie that wrapped from her nape, under her hair, toward her forehead in a ribbon. She also has orange eyes that are burning with valor

She wears a thin outfit and skirt, brown leather boots and glowes that seemed yo have wings attached to them. The underside of her arms also has small wings going along across her arms and into her elbows

Light glowed from her forehead and all her wings ruffled after the sonar wave covered the entire Spirit World

She then came back down and softly landed on her feet

"There's nothing that's putting the entire Spirit World in danger... But I'm detecting strange and foreign energy signatures directly south from us... Near the Flower Empire"

She is a Flame Harpy, representing the Sky Winged Faction of the Spiritual Animal Kingdom in the Spirit World, who is named as Scintillar

"Oh? Can you define what energy signatures are those?"

"I couldn't define all of them... But I could feel something similar to blood"

"Blood..."

A tan skinned girl, close to almost being brown or ash, stood up and placed her right slender fingers on the table. She exudes complete confidence and calmness, like she's almost the Embodiment of Confidence

She has short black hair that only reaches to her cheeks, small lips, white and glittered eyelashes around her eyes, and yellow-gold eyes with black outline and slits as her iris, almost like reptilian. On her head are a pair of half a foot long reddish horns, like oni horns, symbolizing that she's some sort of devil or demon

She wears a white half upper blouse that can only be worn on the shoulders and around her upper chest, on her collar bone. The lower half of her white and black blouse is a dress that passes her waist and opens into eight segmented skirt, like spikes

With her upper blouse and lower dress seemed separate, her small chest would be exposed, but it is only covered by a small erotic x-shaped nipple pasties. It's like she has a cleavage window, but her whole chest is peeking through

She also wears fishnets for her stockings on her legs as armor, high heels, black fingerless gloves, yellow bracelets, and connecting arm sleeves, that's almost like fishnets also, that reaches up her shoulder

She has black wings behind her that resembles eagle wings, but there are no defined feathers and segments like that of a dragon or bat. It almost looks like a solid matter acting like wings but it's attached to her back

She is the Demon Princess, representing the Spiritual Demonic Division of the Lost Demon Race in the Spirit World, who is named as Ariii Akumasha

"The Wisps of the Wind says that strange humans from the Human World has come here"

A floating giant glowing ball of light began to speak. It has varrying colors of almost like a rainbow, but sometimes it's mostly white and transparent. It is currently beinf orbited and surrounded by several more orbs of light with small wings, called wisps, of all seven colors of the rainbow

She is the Wisp Queen, representing the Wispy Kingdom of the Peaceful Treaty in the the Spirit World, who is named as Esmeralda

"Oh?! Humans? It's been a while since human came to the Spirit World"

Ariii commented in excitement

"But that's impossible! No human could just enter the Spirit World without consent from the Spirit King!"

B'kuryank shouted

"Even then, no ordinary humans could create this much disturbance in the Spirit World... Let's go. Amy, Lily, go back to your lands and alert neighboring lands"

Fulkran finally stood up and faced the south. He was ready to go immediately

"..."

It was the same for Adystyl

"No! As the representative of the Elven Royalty, I have to go and investigate also! Don't underestimate my power!"

"Same here! Don't underestimate my size!"

Both Amy and Lily refused Fulkran's request

"Hmph, do what you want"

Fulkran harrumphed and leaned forward. In a blink of an eye, he disappeared and trail black and red trail went to the south. There was no sonic boom generated as it seemed that it was controlled

Adystyl began to lift his foot and began to run southward. With every step, he could already cover almost 150 meters and 1 kilometer if he kept jumping while running

"Well, I'm interested as well. I wonder what humans these are"

Ariii smiled softly but her confidence and ca face is still present. She looks like nothing will be able to faze her

She then immediately shot through the sky and instantly zipped through the sky, leaving sonic booms as she kept going faster and faster that she almost broke the speed of sound several times

"..."

Scintillar followed as her harpy wings flapped behind her waist. She instantly became like a fireball or meteor going to the south

Meanwhile, Amy, Lily, Leonis, and B'kuryank held their hands together. A machine revolved around Amy revolved around her and attached to her aegis

The machine booted up and created a sound that seemed to absorbed energy, like it was revving up. At the same time, light began to illuminate under then and created a pillar of light towards the sky

The light became even brighter until they were completely engulfed. Then suddenly, the pillar of light disappeared along with the four of them

They teleported to somewhere else, probably towards the south as a streak of light could be seen going to the south from the space, like a shooting star

In a few seconds, the meeting around the round table became quiet

"It seems that the Ten Meritorious Spirit Leaders conference has concluded from an unexpected arrival of humans... What do you want to do, Makan?"

Esmeralda spoke solemnly and looked behind her as she transformed into her humanoid form

She has pale skin with a white and gold silk dress full of adorned gems and intricate linings from her shoulders down to her thighs. She wears a mask like there's a pandemic and her eyes are almost hollow white. He hair is silky black that sways in the wind

Behind her are large ribbons that move around like it has a mind of its own. The tipa of the ribbons are sharp with blades attached and adorned in gems

She stood up and turned around. She lifted her head and looked at the gigantic mountain. The gray mountain has a height of 200 kilometers and a length of 10,000 kilometers and width of 3,000 kilometers

"It is fine. You don't have to do anything... The visitation of the human means no harm to the Spirit World"

"I see... If only they asked for your wisdom before leaving..."

"..."

The tenth and final meritorious spirit leader and probably the wisest in the Spirit World, the supposed biggest mountain in the Solar System

He is the Mountain Golem, representing the entirery of the Spirit of the Land in the Spirit World, who is named as Makan

~~~

A few hours has passed, the land under Philip and Tenshi became more and more lush with flowers

Previously, they could only see an occasional presence of forests and plains, but now, all they could see is a sea of flowers, floating flowers, and flying flowers

"Look! Is that our destination?"

Tenshi pointed to where they were headed

"Looks like it"

In the distance, they could see a giant castle surrounding a gigantic flower, like it's some kind of world tree. On top of the flower also, there is another settlement up there, like some kind of smaller kingdom

"Since we're almost near... What do you want us to do, a peaceful approach or a direct approach?"

"Do whatever you think is right... I know you have that kind of judgment"

Tenshi leaned her head into Philip's left shoulder with her lips almost touching his neck

Philip furrowed his eyebrows and closed his mouth as he kept blushing hard. He's a little sensitive on his neck, especially when someone's touching it, more so it's Tenshi's cheek and lips

"Alright... I usually take things fast and get it over with to not waste time, but the only important time is in the real world..."

"..."

"So, we can take our time here and enjoy ot while it last!"

"Okay!"

Tenshi smiled from Philip learning how to turn down a notch and relax for a little bit. However, this changed when Philip's violet and gold eyes shifted to blue-green and gold

This indicates that his [Future Vision] ability is being activated, with the addition of [Clairvoyance] and the permanent effect of [Extreme Self-awareness]

Tenshi was surprised and her smile broke into worry

"I'm sorry Tenshi... We won't be able to take our time after all. We have to hurry and get out of the Spirit World as soon as possible"

"Whatever you want, Philip... I'll follow you"

At this point, Tenshi closed her eyes and she transformed into her Holy Angel form. Philip let go of her and her chibi angel wings flapped slowly

She then glided around Philip until he's above him, directly behind his back. The [Blood Wings] retracted into his back and Tenshi caught Philip on his waist

"Hang tight!"

Tenshi advised Philip

"Yes"

Tenshi smiled and then he tilted his head upwards, so that she looking directly towards the giant flower

Her eyes began to shine with yellow light and the halo behind her back ejected two Discs of Heavenly Prayers

"Order of Execution!!"

The discs revolved around them and shone brightly. In an instant both Tenshi and Philip darted across the sky in a streak of yellow light and reached the Flower Empire in mere seconds

"Stop"

Philip exclaimed and Tenshi already let go of him. The [Original Compass] had its x-ring constantly rotating around while the other two rings were directly pointing downwards, indicating that Mei'er's origin is located directly under them

Philip erected the [Blood Wings] one more time to hover in the air for a second as he looked down to search a suitable target

He scanned across the hundreds of beings and objects on the ground, this includes beings such as walking flowers, hybrid flower humanoids, ordinary human looking beings, many more spirit races, and ornaments and artifacts

It took a quick second to scan half of the ground with [Definite Sight] and [Supreme Sense of Calculation] until he landed his eyes on a being that has a light brown hood. Philip couldn't distinguish its gender, but he could see that it's suspicious since its hood is very much likely covering her entire face

He also noticed some sort of imperial guards with a distinct floral uniforms scattered around the area

As soon as he saw this person, the indicators of the time meters all moved towards the center, which means Philip has located the target with his own eyes

"Found it"

Philip flicked his hand and the [Original Compass] disappeared

He began hovering down until he seemed like he was falling. Tenshi followed, head first, while maintaining her flight buoyancy

In no time at all, Philip landed several feet in front of the hooded figure and a soft blast of wind erupted around him, which caught the attention of every beings around them

Everyone immediately moved away and formed a circle around Philip and the hooded figure. Tenshi then landed behind him while being surrounded by a yellow aura. Philip's [Blood Wings] retracted back into his body

"Who are they?"

"What are they doing here?"

"That man looks incredibly handsome! What race is he?"

"I've never seen someone as handsome as him!"

"Hey! Are you falling for him when you have a husband?! I'll tell on you!"

"That girl is so beautiful!!"

"From the looks of it, is she and angel?"

"What's an angel doing here?"

A lot of murmurs started around the area. More and more unsuspecting civilians started to congregate around the circle of crowds. The floral imperial knights started to move forward and traverse through the crowds

"..."

Philip inspected the hooded figure closer. The closer he looked at the hooded figure, the more he understood the situation

The hooded figure is a female, obviously from the size of her chest. She was carrying a basket of flowers of her arms and he saw her slender fingers. The hood is only covering half of her face, but the lower half of her face is being shaded because of the low light level around this area

There is large petaling flower at the sky after all and it blocks the sunlight from coming through this area. Fortunately, there are flowers that emit light powerful enough that it's like the morning or before dusk. There are also flowering streetlights that emits mood lighting, which gives a certain atmospheric mood

From her hood, yellow hair was flowing down from her side bangs

"..."

Philip smirked and he already know the identity of this person, especially since the [Original Compass] pointed to her as Mei'er's origin. He also knew it because of her body language, like she knows him for some odd reason

"I have to talk to you... Uhm... I don't know your name yet, but Mei'er would ring a bell, won't it?"

The hooded person wasn't fazed, but she couldn't hide her utter shock fr Philip's [Body Language Translator] ability

At this point, eight floral imperial knights have arrived inside the circle and pointed their floral spears at Philip and Tenshi

"Identify yourself!!"

"Stay back!!!"

"Don't move!!!"
