I am the Pope in the Western Fantasy World

Chapter 287 Pirate Queen

The gate to the abyss slowly emerged, stunning everyone present.

Wait, isn’t he from the Cult of the Dawn?

Why did he use the power of death again?

"Sorry, I'm from the Church of the Dead." Along with Phil Gray's voice, an undead walked out of the gate of the abyss.

This is a ghost, but not an ordinary ghost, but a ghost with a fish tail.

Even though she turned into a ghost, her beauty as the darling of the sea did not diminish in the slightest.

I didn’t expect that this client turned out to be a mermaid. No wonder she was asked to be summoned at the bottom of the sea.

The two mermaid royals present were extremely shocked. How come this ghost looked exactly like the war princess recorded in their clan's history!

They paused their attack for a moment.

The ghost mermaid looked at the sea with eyes full of nostalgia, "I have finally returned to the sea that I have been thinking about day and night——"

"Hello!" Phil Gray waved at her.

"My summoner?"

Phil Gray nodded while fighting with those people. "I summoned you. Thank you for sending us the Soul of the Sea. This time I summoned you not only to fulfill my promise, but also to ask for your help. If you miss the sea in the future, I can summon you again."

"Are you referring to these people?" The ghost mermaid smiled calmly, but his huge fish tail had already swept away the few God's favored ones who swarmed over him.

So powerful!

"Yes."

Phil Gray felt more relieved.

At this time, the two mermaid royals asked hesitantly, "Are you Princess Eve?"

"We are of the same tribe, do you know me?" The ghost mermaid gently waved her tail, and her delicate fingers drew colorful bubbles. These bubbles blocked the enemy's mouth and nose like a deadly weapon, making them struggle continuously due to suffocation.

"It's really you!"

"There is a portrait of you in the Mermaid Palace. You should be considered our great-aunt."

The two mermaid royals spoke excitedly, but of course they didn't dare to attack them.

"Haha, the two little guys have good qualifications. They have been demoted from gods. Try to ascend to the goddess' kingdom as soon as possible. Don't be stranded in the abyss for an unworthy person like me." The ghost mermaid greeted the juniors while knocking those people down in a few moves.

What a powerful ghost! This is definitely the most powerful god-demoted undead he has ever seen. It feels like she can even fight against the Shinto level, Phil Gray thought.

"Thank you for your help."

“You’re welcome. I also have to thank you for bringing me to this sea. When I was young and ignorant, I left my hometown and betrayed my beliefs for the so-called love. Now it has become my biggest regret. Every day in the dark abyss, I long to see this sea again and die in this sea.” The ghost mermaid smiled a little lonely.

"Grandma, let's take you back to the Mermaid Temple."

She shook her head and rejected the juniors' proposal, "No need, I am not worthy to go back again. My summoner, do you have anything else to say?"

"No, I just want to help my friend keep what belongs to her. Those who coveted those things have been eliminated by you. From now on, you can freely do what you want near this sea area, but due to the limitation of summoning skills, you may not be able to stay too far away from me." Phil Gray replied.

"That's good. Come to think of it, these two girls are very similar to a friend I knew before." The ghost mermaid looked at the two Ediths.

"If you are talking about the pirate queen Phoenix, we are her reincarnation." The two girls looked at each other and said with a smile.

Phil Gray was a little surprised that this mermaid was actually a figure from about five hundred years ago and even recognized the pirate queen. It seems that mermaids have a long lifespan, otherwise there would not be these two mermaid royal great-aunts today.

"Hahaha, that's great. Not only did I return to the sea today, but I also met my old friends. I have no regrets at all."

Hearing this, everyone present had a bad feeling. The ghost mermaid closed her eyes and her body turned into blue bubbles, floating away with the sea water.

When she returned to her hometown, she had already planned to disappear into the sea, not wanting her soul to stay in the abyss forever.

"Grandma..."

The mermaid royal family cried bitterly. The mermaids attach great importance to blood ties. This princess was very powerful at the time, and she was only one step away from becoming a god. Unfortunately, she died at a young age with her lover from the Church of the Dead, which made the entire mermaid tribe sad for a long time. Unfortunately, they only saw her once, and then she disappeared forever.

They scooped up the tiny bubbles in their hands and left the underwater city.

The treasure here is far less important to them than the disappearance of a fellow tribesman.

……

Phil Gray and his companions followed Edith into the passage under the statue and saw an underground warehouse below.

There were neatly stacked iron boxes at the door. Hei Ye gently split one of the boxes with his front paws, revealing a dazzling blue light.

"Wow! They're all blue crystal!"

Patrick also opened the other iron boxes, which were filled with blue crystals.

Walking further inside, a wide variety of gold, silver and jewelry were placed on the ground and storage shelves, causing Hei Ye and Patrick to exclaim at the same time:

"We're rich!"

Phil Gray couldn't help but admire that even this storage rack was not simple. After being soaked in the seabed for so long, it still maintained its original appearance. Although it looked like wood, no one knew what material it was made of.

The two Ediths were not excited about the wealth. They walked towards the sarcophagus in the middle of the warehouse and touched it with their hands. "This should contain our bodies from our previous lives."

After hearing what they said, Patrick no longer had the mood to look at the blue crystal and the jewels. He walked over and wanted to talk to this Edith, but he was afraid that the other Edith would be unhappy, so he could only look at the sarcophagus and asked, "Can you explain to me what's going on? Why are both of you her reincarnations?"

Pirate Edith patted the sarcophagus and said, "If you want to know everything, you have to open the sarcophagus."

"I need a pair of earrings." Edith in white said, pointing to a groove on the sarcophagus.

"Here with me." Phil Gray threw the earrings Frank gave him to the two girls. He and Frank thought it was the key to the treasure, but they didn't know that the treasure was not locked at all, and the earrings were the key to opening the coffin.

"Cousin?" Patrick was surprised how his cousin got this thing.

"Ghost Frank gave it to me." Phil Gray spread his hands and said helplessly.

Pirate Edith put the earrings into the grooves on the sarcophagus one by one. After hearing the click of the mechanism turning, she pushed it gently, revealing the well-preserved body inside.

The pirate queen lying inside is still in the best condition she was in life, with rosy cheeks and long eyelashes clearly visible, making people think that she is just asleep instead of sleeping here.

After the sarcophagus was opened, they saw a wisp of the pirate queen's soul floating out of the corpse. She said to the two Ediths, "You are finally here. My soul was about to dissipate."

"Yes, we are here."

"When we met, we had some fragmentary memories of our past lives, and we knew that the other person was actually ourselves, but why was this so? We really want to know the answer."

The two Ediths said one after another.

Phil Gray and others also looked at her in confusion.

Phoenix laughed heartily, "That's because of my wish in my previous life. I wanted to experience two completely different lives at the same time. I couldn't let go of the sea, and wanted to continue to gallop on the sea in my next life, live an adventurous life with my brothers, and explore endless treasures. But I also wanted to have a refined and leisurely time like an ordinary noble lady, which was a life I never had. So I paid some price at the Wheel of Life and made this wish to the God of Life, allowing my soul to be split into two."

Is it because of this?

Phil Gray never expected this to be the reason. She was indeed worthy of being the Pirate Queen. She was bold enough, greedy enough, and crazy enough. After all, who would have thought that she would ask God to split herself in two when she was reincarnated?

Patrick looked at Phoenix's soul with resentment and said, "You have experienced everything, but what can I do? I am almost becoming a two-timing guy."

Seeing Patrick's gaze, Phoenix's soul kissed him on the lips directly in front of everyone's shocked eyes.

"Well, not bad, it seems my vision is still as good as ever."

Patrick stepped back hastily. He liked the two Ediths, and it was true that they were the reincarnations of Phoenix, but this was the first time he met this legendary pirate queen. How could it be like this!

The two Ediths looked at the souls of their previous lives with some annoyance.

"Oh, why do you both have this expression? Okay, okay, the time has come, it's time to become one." Phoenix smiled gently, opened her arms, and hugged the two Ediths.

The two Ediths closed their eyes, and the three of them hugged each other tightly.

The blue ocean force rushed straight to the sea surface, and after a moment, only Edith was left there.

She opened her eyes, and all her past experiences came to her mind, but the memories of Phoenix in her previous life had become extremely vague. All that remained were the flowers Patrick gave her at the City Lord's Mansion, and the starry sky they watched together on the pirate ship.

"Edith." Patrick looked at her in surprise. The Edith in front of him made his heart beat faster than ever before.

I will involuntarily fall in love with every half of your soul, and naturally fall in love with the whole you.
