Chapter 1037 When You Drop A Goddess In A Mortal World
"Batten down the hatches and run out the guns!" Master barked out as soon as I was guided up towards the top deck where He was steering the ship. "We\'ll face them with the port side guns!"
The deck below was a flurry of activity as the crew scrambled to fulfil the order, all of them looking like bees in a nest.
I watched as Master spun the wheel, shifting the course of the entire ship to point towards the approaching pirate ship.
Even now, I can\'t help but feel excited over the scene. I\'m witnessing a real life pirate scene! And Master looks super cool in that pirate captain look as well!
I\'m going to need to remember to ask if Elaria could make a costume like that when I return.
If our future with Master wasn\'t at stake, I would be very interested in seeing how this Universe functioned and even what life was like on board Master\'s ship. I wonder if it\'s possible for us to experience these alternate Universes from time to time…
With that said, I\'m still extremely impressed that Elaria managed to build something that allows us to do this within such a short period of time. Then again, she was a genius at such a thing.
Oops, I shouldn\'t be too distracted in my own fantasies right now.
As much as I would like to see how the pirate version of Master commanded the ship in a naval battle like this, I need to remember I have a purpose right now.
"Master, am I allowed to sink the enemy ship with my lightning?" I asked.
Master raised an eyebrow at me, "Lian Li, seriously, I think you should go below deck and rest. I don\'t think you\'ve recovered yet."
"Master, I\'m being serious. Do we need to capture that ship or can they be sunk completely?"
My serious tone must have made Master consider my words properly, "Umm… Sure, just sink them. They\'re not worth the bounty anyway."
Receiving permission from Master, I turned to face the enemy ship and stretched out my palm towards it, concentrating on gathering lightning in front of me.
Everyone around me gasped as they saw the sparks flying around me before I let loose the beam of Divine Lightning at the enemy ship.
The blast tore through the entire length of the enemy ship, cutting it in half like a hot knife through butter.
The remaining sides wobbled before the waves crashed into them, bringing the entire wreck down into a watery grave.
Everyone on Master\'s ship was silent.
I turned back to Master, "Master, as I said, I am Lian Li from another Universe, I need your help to save the multiverse."
This Universe\'s version of Eris stepped in between us, "Hold up! How do we know you\'re not some kind of siren that took the form of my senior sister?!"
I tilted my head at her, "Sirens are real?"
"I don\'t know, but what I do know is that my senior sister Lian Li definitely couldn\'t fire lightning bolts out of her ass yesterday!"
"That\'s why I said I\'m from another Universe!"
"Like hell that is possible!"
"You just saw me fire off a laser!"
"Witchcraft!"
"ENOUGH!" Master ordered.
Both Eris and I snapped our mouths shut at Master\'s shout and turned to face Him simultaneously.
Master massaged His temple with his fingers, "Lian Li… What do you have to prove that you are the real one?"
I was just about to say that I don\'t share memories with this Universe\'s version of Lian Li when I got reminded of how I got here in the first place.
Deciding to take a risk, I lowered my voice and whispered, "I… I confessed and… Did a front flip?"
The reaction was immediate as Eris snorted in laughter and Master actually blushed before covering His face.
Eh? Seriously? Why did the me of this Universe do that?
"Ugh… You\'re definitely Lian Li alright… I can\'t believe you still remember that…" Master sighed.
Eris giggled, "Ehehehe~ I remember Master was so oblivious to senior sister Lian Li\'s affections back then. You then decided to just confess to Master while on top of the crow\'s nest to announce it to the whole ship before leaping off towards Master~ It was soooo cute!"
"Ugh… Don\'t remind me… I had to catch you midair too and that was so embarrassing… Umm… Ok… What do I need to do?"
Eh? That\'s all? Well, I guess I\'m quite impressed by this version of me to seek out Master\'s love like that. You go girl!
Anyway…
"Just allow me to show you some memories."
Master nodded to show that He was ready and I projected my will to allow the memories to flow directly into Master\'s mind, letting Him see the scene that Elaria had prepared in advance for Master.
I noticed Master\'s eyes glaze over for a few seconds before snapping back into focus on me.
Unexpectedly, Master grabbed me by the shoulders with a frantic look on His face, "Lian Li! You have to hurry! I\'m trying to delay Iris as much as I can but you have to get to the other Universes before she does! Tell Brendan I permit the summoning usage of the Origin Liquid! He will know what to do! Go! I will handle things here!"
Master then gave me a slight push and I found myself falling backwards onto the ground.
The next thing I knew I was back in Master\'s courtyard and laying on a soft bedding.
"Oh! Welcome back! That was rather fast sister Lian Li! How was it?" Elaria greeted me with a smile.
"Where\'s Brendan?" I asked, already looking around me to find him.
Elaria pointed to the side, "Everyone\'s still in their own Universe at the moment, any reason you\'re looking for him in particular?"
"I managed to help the Master of that Universe return to His senses and He told me to tell Brendan to make use of the Origin Liquid to summon something. Can we get Brendan back?"
"Eh? Onii-sama said that? In that case, I think he would also tell brother Brendan once he succeeds right? Anyway! How was it?! The Universe where Onii-sama is a pirate lord!"
"Pirate lord?"
"Yeap! It\'s so cool! I got so much information on your trip alone! It\'s so worth it to include a function on this machine that allows me to record what you see as well! Maybe I can use this to come up with a way for me to ascend to Godhood too! Ah, but first I will need to deal with the physical and mental entropy… Maybe if I were to just adjust the output and--"
Looks like Elaria is going into her \'crazy scientist\' mode… As much of a genius she was, none of us really understand what she is talking about most of the time.
I suppose I can leave a note or something for Brendan to read just in case. Master did seem quite hurried so I shouldn\'t waste time and jump straight into the next Universe.
Now… What do I need to do to jump this time?
