Chapter 1029 Unexpectedly Easy
"...Did Ki-tan expect this?" Serafall loudly muttered with her lips twitching.
Finally, the wings began retracting and folding, revealing Ais, still with Draconic limbs and scales, but now golden.
Everyone outside of the wall, except for Freya and Loki, were dismayed and almost in despair when they saw this, but contrary to their reactions, Lysa beamed and excitedly flew over to her \'mother\' while roaring out cutely.
Everyone from the Loki Familia cried out in fear for Lysa but they couldn\'t do anything.
Lysa caught Ais\' attention and was revealed that her golden eyes had turned reptilian too but that still didn\'t impede Lysa\'s flight and hurriedly buried herself within Ais\' bosom.
Ais gently caught her and started stroking her head, "That was dangerous."
The small Dragon, however, ignored her soft scolding and directly transformed into a little girl and hugged her, "Welcome back!"
Ais smiled softly and carried the girl in her arms, "I\'m back."
Seeing that there was already no cause for any concern, Serafall snapped her fingers, and the wall of ice crumbled down before disappearing into nothing.
Still, everyone else was remaining silent and trying to take in what was happening in front of them.
Naturally, the first one to step up was Loki with a big smile on her face, "How are you feeling, Ais? Any discomfort?"
Ais turned to her with her usual demeanor and answered, "None. I actually feel pretty great. Did you know that I\'d end up like this?"
"Of course not. Who would expect this?" Loki shrugged her shoulders but remembered someone, "...Ah, that guy might have since it was him saying that Lysa should be by your side at all times."
Ais smiled wryly and agreed, "That\'s true... But I don\'t feel like I was forced into this." Recalling that \'Ophis\' only took over as an impartial judge, she didn\'t think that Kisuke was forcing her into this route, \'It was me who ultimately decided what I should do in my own life.\'
"You still don\'t know anything regarding this form." Serafall approached them with a big smile on her face, "I\'ll ask Ki-tan to do a full body scan to make sure that there\'s nothing amiss. A Humanoid Dragon like you could have various complications that you might not be aware of."
Loki immediately furrowed her brows. Although Serafall was friendly and very easy to get along with as long as you don\'t piss her off, Loki knew that she wouldn\'t be offering something like this without an equivalent exchange. Her proposition is very tempting, especially considering Kisuke\'s skills, but she just can\'t agree to it, "You have something in mind?"
"Let\'s talk about it later~" Serafall replied before turning around and taking her distance. As she went through the people around, they all had awkward expressions and didn\'t really know how to deal with her. Serafall ignored them and went towards the tallest standing building to survey the area, \'I can feel Ki-tan and Yoru-chan\'s presence at the opposite end of Orario. What are they up to?\'

"I-is that really you, Ais?" Finn asked when they approached.
"Ah, captain. I\'m sorry for the trouble I caused. I almost hurt everyone."
Hearing her clear voice of reason, Tiona, Tione, and Lefiya all teared up and jumped at her, "Ais!!!". Meanwhile, Filvis and the rest of the members of the Loki Familia curiously looked at her wings and scales that dotted her body and asked Ais about them.
Hermes, on the other hand, had an unbelieving expression, "H-how is this possible?"
Asfi looked at him with worry because this was the first time she had seen him this frustrated multiple times in such a small span of time.
"If a miracle happened once, don\'t you think it\'s also possible for it to happen twice?" Freya answered him with a slight chuckle, \'This is why you Gods are too boring.\'
"How is that a miracle!? It\'s obviously a result of a cause! What was that snake!?"
Since Hermes was getting heated again, Freya ignored him and reminded everyone, "I\'m sorry to rain on your parade, but we\'re not done here yet."
After the Black Dragon\'s defeat, the monsters that were surging from the Dungeon had started retreating, however, that didn\'t mean that the Corrupted Spirit would stay still.
Everyone\'s force and battle readiness returned to them, except for Ottar and Tsubaki.
But before they could do anything, the remains of the Tower of Babel suddenly erupted with light before completely crumbling down in a following small earthquake. The almost blinding light continued to travel upwards and became as tall as the former tower. Immediately after that, two long spikes of light appeared on each side of the towering light, forming a gigantic cross across the sky.
This overwhelming sight silenced everyone, but it didn\'t end there as a giant grotesque figure made of faces mashed together letting out shrill cries started floating up from the base of the cross and was slowly lifted up to the middle of the cross.
A ring of light as wide as the whole of Orario then appeared with the cross and the \'monster\' right in the middle and it immediately began shrinking.
The shrill and horror-inducing cries of multiple voices amalgamated worsened but the ring kept shrinking and soon the cross too.
As if being crushed by an immense pressure, the giant \'monster\' also started getting smaller and smaller with its various voices also weakening.
A minute later, the ring and cross had already disappeared and the \'monster\' was compressed inside a 3-inch translucent crystal, frozen in time.
It was unknown when, but Riveria suddenly appeared beside it and nonchalantly grabbed it before pocketing it, and what they heard next baffled everyone, "Well, that was easy."
She then turned towards where the group was and despite the distance, Riveria still instantly saw the completely changed Ais and the aura she was emitting, "Dragon? What happened?"
