Chapter 22 The Hope Of Life: Philomena’s Self-Recommendation!
Philomena looked at the Long-Boned Ape king's fierce gaze and was terrified.
But considering that this was her only chance to live, she steeled her heart with a fighting spirit.
When the Long-Boned Ape King had spoken to the Green Jade Python, Philomena had heard their conversation clearly from the side.
As a member of the royal family of the Herlock Kingdom, she had needed to learn all kinds of subjects since she was young.
Among those subjects, the common language of the continent was a compulsory course for her!
This world was not as small as humans had initially imagined. The vastness of this world was unimaginable to humans.
Therefore, learning the common language of the continent was important for her to be able to communicate with the royal family, other countries, races, and even the dignitaries from the empire.
From the conversation between the Long-Boned Ape king and the Green Jade Python, she guessed that the Green Jade Python was looking for someone to raise the human mother and child on top of its head!
Although Philomena also found it strange that the Magical Beast was looking for a human to raise a human, she didn't dare argue. Because this was a great opportunity.
Philomena didn't feel like she would die in the territory of the Long-Boned Ape anymore.
As a woman, she had thought about how she would be tortured by the disgusting Long-Boned Apes and how that would end up with her getting pregnant and giving birth to more Long-Boned Apes for the tribe. And finally, after she had gone through all that suffering, she would just be eaten by them in the end.
When she thought about this possibility, Philomena's heart instantly froze.
Compared to being humiliated to death by the Long-Boned Apes, she would rather be eaten by the Green Jade Python in front of her!
Thus, with this thought in mind, Philomena immediately wanted to take the risk and recommend herself to the King-tier monster in front of her.
However, just as she was about to speak, the situation in front of her suddenly changed.
The Long-Boned Ape King actually suddenly attacked the Green Jade Python, or more accurately, grabbed the human on top of its head.
This action stunned Philomena!
"Could it be that this damned Long-Boned Ape king is planning to take the mother and child on top of its head as hostages to threaten the Green Jade Python?"
"No!"
Philomena's heart was very anxious.
If the Green Jade Python was really threatened by the Long-Boned Ape king and left, what would she do?
Unexpectedly, the scenario she was thinking of did not occur.
Instead, something even more shocking occurred!
She saw that the Long-Boned Ape king had just made a move, and in an instant, a crushing aura that was several times stronger than the one earlier engulfed the Long-Boned Ape King!
In fact, practically all the surrounding creatures were slammed to the ground in an instant!
The Long-Boned Ape King was also slammed to the ground.
The human on top of the Green Jade Python had used some kind of gravity spell and the Long-boned Ape King's huge body was pressed to the ground like a dog.
Philomena's eyes were filled with shock.
Perhaps it was because this powerful aura was mainly directed at the Long-Boned Ape king, or perhaps it was because most of Philomena's group were magicians, and their spiritual power was stronger than that of ordinary people, but they found out that the aura did not affect them much. Yes, they were exhausted as they lay in the wooden cage, but they were not overwhelmed.
This was especially so for Philomena. Her spiritual power was obviously very outstanding, so even in the face of such terrifying aura, Philomena still stood tall.
However, what was going on before her eyes was too shocking and that was the main point.
Even if the Long-Boned Ape king wanted to eat her, she would still be shocked by what was going on in front of her.
"How can such a terrifying person exist in the world!"
Philomena looked up at the huge red fireball condensed on the head of the Green Jade Python.
Even in the Long-Boned Ape territory, Philomena, who was imprisoned, could clearly sense the terrifying magic fluctuations!
"This is terrifying, Is this... Did the human female on top of the Green Jade Python's head actually cast such a spell?"
Philomena's heart was twisting with shock.
Because she saw that the human female on top of the Green Jade Python's head had just raised her right hand.
When she was about to put it down, the Long-Boned Ape king on the ground unexpectedly began to beg for mercy.
It even spouted nonsense saying that it would raise a human cub.
It even said that there was no one in this world who knew how to raise a human better than it.
That made Philomena snort.
'Aren't you a King-tier monster? Have you lost your dignity?'
However, what shocked Philomena was that the powerful human woman actually hesitated!
'What a joke, you're also a human, how can you believe those words!'
With a racing heart and a desire to live, Philomena didn't hesitate anymore.
Without thinking, she directly used a voice amplification spell to shout out what she needed to say!
...
Hearing this sudden voice, Prescott was obviously stunned.
"Is this a voice amplification spell?"
She was a little surprised.
Voice amplification magic was actually a basic spell that was used to make one's voice louder through magical means.
It wasn't that Prescott was surprised by this magic, no, she just didn't expect that the person who used this magic was actually a human!
When she was young, she was often attacked by human adventurers and even human armies.
When it came to humans, other than apprehension, Prescott's heart was filled with traces of fear.
Of course, Sade was an exception.
Philomena's words successfully caught her attention!
'The Long-Boned Ape king only knows how to plunder human females, huh? Then, is he lying to me?' Prescott's expression instantly changed!
A terrifying aura spread throughout the entire region.
For a moment, not only the Long-Boned Ape was slammed to the ground, but even the surrounding Magical Beasts were affected as well. Therefore, they frantically fled in all directions.
"What's going on, Long-Boned Ape King!"
"You actually dared to deceive my master!"
Feeling the terrifying aura from Prescott, the Green Jade Python's entire body started to tremble.
What kind of joke is this? It's fine if the Long-Boned Ape King doesn't know how to raise humans, but now it was trying to trick Prescott?
If its master had actually trusted the Ape, then what would have happened?
It was precisely because of this worry that the Green Jade Python immediately made its stance clear.
"I'm being defamed... No, no, no, spare me, don't kill me!"
The Long-Boned Ape king originally wanted to beg, but the overwhelming and terrifying aura directly scared it silly.
The entire Magical Beast's heart instantly collapsed, and without thinking, it hugged its head and begged for forgiveness, however, this was obviously useless.
Prescott had experienced too many treacherous human traps ever since she was born.
What she hated the most was being deceived!
Therefore, without thinking, she threw the huge red fireball in her hand down.
There was a huge explosion.
The Long-Boned Ape king was instantly incinerated. It was dead.
Prescott and the Green Jade Python, as well as those who were close to her, did not suffer the slightest bit of damage, while Sade was still in a deep sleep.
"What's your name?!"
"Philomena, Philomena Herlock!"
