Chapter 71.5 – Arton and Carina’s fusion

"So, there's been a situation on Kaya's side."

"In that case, we have no choice but to speed up our sail."

Uta closed the diary copy, standing at the stern, took a deep breath, and then emitted an ultrasonic wave from her mouth.

Leveraging the reaction force, the ship under Arton and his companions' feet immediately glided forward rapidly for a distance.

"Not bad."

Arton silently estimated the sailing speed and felt that following this momentum, minus the time Uta rests, sailing from here to Syrup Village would save enough time for two days.

Therefore, he confidently entrusted the sailing to Uta while he went over to Carina's side.

"Carina, I have something I want to experiment with and I need your help."

Arton said.

"My help?"

Carina shivered, her mind flashing back to the special massage from before.

"Ah, it seems Captain Arton really enjoyed the massage before."

"It's only been such a short time and you want to experience it again?"

Carina's lips curled up, teasingly speaking to Arton.

Despite saying so, from Carina's slightly flushed cheeks and her unconsciously rubbing hands together, it was evident that her heart was not as calm as she appeared...

"Although the 'help' I mentioned before wasn't referring to that."

"But if you're willing, I'd still be very pleased to accompany you."

Arton's lips curled up, and he laughingly placed his hand on Carina's lower back.

With a strong pull forward from his right hand, Carina immediately fell into Arton's embrace.

"Tell me, Captain Arton, what do you need my help with?"

Carina turned serious, choosing to change the subject directly.

She felt that if the conversation continued, Arton might really ask her to repeat the previous act.

Seeing this, Arton slightly shook his head and released her.

"Carina, you've seen me using Uta's template power together with her before, haven't you? What do you think?"

"That? It felt quite unique. I didn't expect that you could transform into that form, even using Elizabeth's powers better than Uta."

"After all, my physical strength is superior to Uta's. After using her template, I naturally could bring out more of Elizabeth's power."

"So, you mean to say, if you and I were to use the Yae Miko template together, we could also bring out more of Yae Miko's power?"

Although Carina asked this, there wasn't much doubt in her gaze.

After all, she had already understood these details through the diary copy from Arton.

"Of course, although you are already capable of using Yae Miko's Elemental Burst, but compared to the [Great Secret Art: Tenko Kenshin] used by Yae Miko, there's still a big difference."

"In my case, naturally, I would be able to perform better than you."

Arton nodded as he spoke.

"Listening to you say this, I'm slightly reluctant to accept it."

"But why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

"Could it be… you want to merge with me?"

Carina asked, puzzled.

"Indeed, you are clever, Carina, hitting the nail on the head."

Arton nodded slightly, continuing:

"When I previously merged powers with Uta, I had some insights."

"So, I wanted to try merging powers with you as well."

"To see if we could develop some new tactics."

"By conducting some trials now, we could save some trial time when facing enemies later."

Hearing this, Carina touched her smooth hair and smiled:

"I think I have no reason to refuse."

"Besides, I also want to try and see what it feels like to merge with you, Captain Arton."

After hearing about Uta's experiences with merging, Carina had become curious.

Furthermore, as Arton said, if they could try using the merged powers in advance, it might be more convenient when facing enemies later.

Additionally, after merging, even if Arton took selfies, Carina could also earn points.

Under such circumstances, Carina certainly had no reason to refuse.

"In that case, let's begin."

"Get ready, Carina."

Arton solemnly reminded, and Carina also took a deep breath, quickly preparing herself.

The next moment, as Arton utilized system permissions, Carina and Arton's bodies were surrounded by blue and white lightning.

Subsequently, their bodies grew closer and closer, eventually becoming one person.

When the lightning dissipated, Arton's appearance changed once again, just like the last time they activated the merge mode with Uta.

At this moment, Arton had grown fox ears and a fox tail.

Even in terms of clothing, there were hints of Yae Miko.

"Is this the space after merging with Arton?"

"Just like Uta said, it's a magical space."

"And this warmth, this comfortable feeling, it's irresistible."

Carina looked at the transparent bubble shimmering with blue and white light where she was, and then at the surrounding dark space adorned with strands of lightning, her eyes lighting up.

Afterward, feeling the pleasure of her own body, Carina couldn't help but stretch lazily, her tempting figure immediately highlighted to perfection.

"The only downside is this state of being without clothes."

"Arton, you can actually see my body, can't you?"

Suddenly, Carina put her hands on her hips, pouting and looking up into the void.
