Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 348 The Demon Continent!!!

The moonlight slash hit the barrier, shooking the entire island with the impact. It was stronger than the last time when Arthur was just testing the waters, and now even more cracks appeared on the barrier.

Everyone felt the powerful force behind the attack, but the turtle deep in the sea was the one who was the most excited to see the barrier break. Turquoise had been there for a long time, and it was finally time to be free and leave that planet.

"Please, work!"

That was the thought inside Arthur's wives, who wanted to leave that island for good. But it was not only them who had that thought; the tribesmen also did, as they wished to see the rest of the world.

Arthur looked toward the barrier, watching the cracks increase, hoping it would work. He could not use another moonlight attack even if he wanted to, which was their only shot because the next eclipse would take a long time.

After what felt like an eternity, the barrier broke! The moment it happened, a colossal blast echoed, entering the ear of all the humans and beasts over a range of fifty kilometers.

"I-It fucking worked!" Arthur yelled, unable to hold his smile.

His time on the island with his wives had been good, but being trapped there went against everything he wished. Arthur wanted to go out and explore and had an important task ahead of him. An entire continent needed him!!!

"Yes! Finally!" Jane, Wisa, and Sybille yelled with him, flying toward him for a hug.

The four of them hugged each other in mid-air, and it was at that moment a gigantic turtle head came out of the water. Its neck moved, and the turtle was facing them.

It was way bigger than Arthur or his wives, and just the eye of that turtle had the size of a building!

"You actually did it, Arthur. I am impressed and happy to be free again. Tell me, is there something you need before I leave this planet?" Turquoise asked.

Arthur had given the turtle its life back, its freedom. He looked at Turquoise, thought for a while, and then said, "there are two things I need. Would you hear?"

"Go on."

"First, I was hoping you could ride us to the demon continent; our ship broke, which would help us greatly."

"No problem. With my speed, you will reach the demon continent way sooner. Now, what is the next thing you need from me?"

"Ikarus told me his brother is in danger, the bird who carries a sun. He asked for my help in the future, but when the time comes, can I count on you?"

"Ikarus asked that? Of course, I will help them even if you are not here anymore."

With that, everything worked out for Arthur and his wives! Sure, it was a tragic thing his crew perished in that attack, but it was good that they got themselves the help of such a mighty creature.

The tribe's chief went to meet with Arthur after he saw the gigantic turtle head, afraid the beast was there to attack them, but it turned out the turtle was on the island!

It took some time for him to comprehend its meaning, and now all of them would go together toward the demon continent! 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m

Turquoise looked at the tribe chief and said, "the demon continent is dangerous. After I bring Arthur and his wives there, I can transport you to a safer place. Is that okay?"

"Thank you."

The man bowed in retribution and wanted to kneel before the turtle, but Arthur stopped him. "We are all friends here, so there is no need for this," he said.

While they were talking, a man with a long beard and a ragged robe left the island like lightning. No one sensed his presence. The turtle was the only one capable of doing that, but its power was sealed for a long time, so Turquoise was still recovering it.

With the barrier problem out of the way, it was time for Arthur and his wives to return to their task — head toward the demon continent.

The ship they had before was fast, considered the best one in the central continent, yet it was nowhere near the speed of that turtle.

Arthur guessed that the journey, which would still take them three years to end, would diminish to an astonishing six months! That was how fast the turtle was, and Arthur was delighted!

"We will reach the demon continent way sooner than expected, giving us more time to gather information and move against them!"

Turquoise could speak mentally with Arthur; along the journey, he shared lots of information about the demon continent.

There were many races living there, and some of them were the most known ones, with a rank 4 mage in charge. Surprisingly, there was a race of humans there! They weren't exactly like the humans Arthur knew, but that was because of the type of magic they used.

Another famous race was the werewolves and vampires, who surprisingly were present on that planet and on many worlds. When Turquoise spoke about the vampires, Arthur decided to keep it a secret from now, but he had a guess Sybille had come from that family of vampires!

Arthur had never seen a vampire before, and they did not exist on other continents, so it was safe to say Sybille was either from the demon continent or another planet. Still, Arthur believed it was the first option.

The demon continent was a mix of different races with their own cultures and beliefs. Arthur now understood why it had been so difficult for them to unite and fight against their common enemy.

"This will be beneficial for us. If we get the help of some families there, then we will have an ally inside!"

A civil war! It was a smart move and one that would work well in the demon continent environment. Arthur thought about many things while on the way, and just like that, six months passed!

It was a regular morning, just like all the rest, but it marked a change, a new thing on the horizon. Everyone living on the turtle's shell could see from a distance a massive piece of land — the demon continent!

Arthur could not believe he had finally reached his destination in record time. Turquoise could not get too close to the continent, or else the people there would notice a strange floating island, so he stopped far from it.

"Remember everything I told you about this place, and make sure to fit in," Turquoise said.

Arthur and his wives hopped out of its shell, flying in mid-air, saying goodbyes to Turquoise, who had helped them a lot! Then, they turned around to face the demon continent and slowly made their way toward it.

There was no way of knowing if it was a decent part of the continent to arrive at or if it was packed with guards waiting for someone to invade their continent.

"We should turn invisible when close, just to be sure."

It was finally time for Arthur and his wives to explore a new land filled with mysteries and dangers.
