Chapter 840: Juri
"...Huh? What happened?" Robin started looking around like a madman, the view around him had completely changed, a moment ago he was in his room under the ground sitting cross- legged, and now he was in a completely dark place with nothing but a huge glowing orb that was mostly blue, "This scenery looks familiar..."
Robin quickly raised his hands and a smile appeared on his face, "As expected, I am in the Silver Soul avatar form." He then started walking towards the huge glowing orb, or what could also be called... the spirit of Planet Jura!!
"I don't know whether to cry or laugh, I have postponed searching for you several times because I thought it would be tiring and would take a long time, but you have been lying under Jura City this whole time?" Robin reached under the image of Planet Jura and started staring at the map of the planet with a smile from ear to ear, "But honestly I couldn't have asked for a better place, now I can fiercely protect this spot under the pretext that I am protecting Jura City, this is simply perfect haha!"
Then Robin raised his hand placed it on the Ancestral Continent and began to zoom in on the location of Jura City. From above, he saw the army spread out like ants, some of them still chasing the remnants of the attackers and capturing them, and a few had begun to set up camps around the city as they were ordered to, but he also saw a large number of soldiers moving like wasps around behind the generals, all of them asking for permission to leave.
Some of the generals shouted at them, and some just ignored them, but this approach didn't seem that it would stop them for long. For most men, there was no reason to fight or even live if they didn't even know the fate of their families. "Tsk- It's good that Richard reminded me. I was blinded with fear when I saw him and didn't take the needs of the soldiers into account. If I had left the meeting a few more days, it wouldn't be unlikely that a mutiny would have started. Even the generals themselves want to leave..."
At this moment, Robin heard a voice, "I just arrived but you started using the observation feature so professionally, it seems like this isn't your first time huh..."
"Hmm?" Robin looked left and right searching for the source of the voice, he knew it was definitely the consciousness of the planet's spirit, but he couldn't find it anywhere around him... Then he finally looked down, "Ah!!"
There was a short human girl who looked to be around six years old, her small hands folded in front of her chest and looking up with cute anger, her clothes and hair tie were all clothes that little girls in Jura City would wear, if Robin saw her on the street he would think she was an ordinary child!
But since she was here... "Are you the spirit of Planet Jura?"
The little girl looked away with a "Hmph," and started walking towards the planet image with quick steps, "Aren't you supposed to be a genius? Why are you asking such an obvious question? Or do you think I'm stupid and want me to start a conversation with you with such a stupid question? Huh? HAAH!?"
"Alright, alright, no need for all this, no one is stupid here!" Robin quickly waved with a fake smile, not knowing what was going on, "Wait... do you know me?"
The little girl stopped, turned around, and gave Robin a look up and down.
"...Is that a stupid question too?" Robin's smile turned to embarrassment
"Hmph!" The little girl made herself a chair out of spirit energy and sat on it, "What kind of planet spirit would I be if I ignored what happened to you in that cave?"
"You mean the All-Seeing God coming down and helping me? That was really a big event that couldn't be ignored." Robin then bowed slightly, "Now I know that what happened was a violation of the rules, thank you for letting him save my life."
"Tsk- It's not like I had an opinion on the matter anyway." The little girl continued to look at Robin from top to bottom in annoyance.
A few veins appeared on Robin's forehead, he wanted to yell at her with all his might but held himself back, "So... you were under Jura City this whole time, huh? What good luck!"
"It has nothing to do with luck, each spirit is located around the most privileged area on the planet to make it easy for potential owners to find us and at the same time easy for the current owner to defend us." The little girl maintained a cold gaze, but she didn't refuse to answer this time, "I don't have any special locations on my surface, so after Jura City became the most sacred location on the planet, I chose to move here, oh, you can call me Juri."
"The locations of the planet's spirit domain aren't random? Also, you can move around..?!" Robin frowned slightly, this was the first time he had heard such information.
Thinking about it, her words don't seem out of place... The spirit of the planet Nihari is located in the Northern Edge Mountain where the immense natural energy originates, and it is believed that the exaggerated size of the mountain is the reason behind the extreme gravity on the planet, it can be said that this mountain is what defines Nihari's features!
As for Greenland, it is located next to the Fountain of Youth, which provides the planet with infinite life energy and is the reason for the appearance of the Treant creatures!
On the other hand, Juri was even more annoyed by Robin's questions... After hearing her talk about not having any special locations, he asked about other things instead of comforting her!!
Juri looked to the side with annoyed features, "I was created in the primordial chaos without any special features, there are too many planets like me, not all planets are special and require Empires to fight for them, but we still have the ability to manipulate the environment, and we have a lot of time, so planets like us try to change ourselves a little to be *more attractive* to invaders and new owners when we reach the middle planetary belt."
"I didn't choose to do that," she continued, clenching her small hands. "I gave up the idea of beautification in order to attract potential owners, and invested all my time and energy in developing the human race on my surface. I didn't interfere in creating mutants or half- humans who would hinder your progress or be the cause of wars of extermination. I also tried my best to raise the average talent of my population and give random gifts to a large number of babies, such as Raiden's high lightning affinity, and Your Excellency's special soul. I put all my cards in a major gamble whose purpose was nothing or everything."
Then she looked at Robin angrily, "I chose to invest in my people so that a strong owner would emerge from them who would cherish me instead of waiting for someone from another planet to notice me and use me as a damn farm. I chose to cherish you humans and strengthen you even though I know your limits instead of bringing you competition. I knew for sure that it was a failed gamble but I tried anyway... But when fate wills it and I succeed, when someone like you appears and a great planetary Empire begins on MY surface, is this how you thank
me?!"
"Um... Thank you," at this point Robin's eyebrows met, "... Is there a problem between us? What's with this hostility?"
"Why did you go to refine another planet instead of looking for me first?!" The little girl got up from her little seat and shouted angrily
