JellyfishCh1 - Cling Film Became a Spirit!

Hua Ji stumbled while running.

A figure dressed in a black, skin-tight suit was hot on his heels, seemingly on the verge of catching up to him, yet Hua Ji always managed to narrowly avoid capture every time. cPYSK1

Hua Ji’s thoughts were filled with angry curses. When he managed to get his hands on the bastard who hired one of the vampires to hunt him down, he wasn’t going to let them off lightly!

In his panic, he didn’t even know where he was running towards. When he burst out of the forest, the sight that filled his eyes was the white sand of a beach. Damn, he miscalculated!

Hua Ji was dizzy with anger, and at this moment he was filled to the brim with regret. He shouldn’t have come to Hawaii for a vacation; there was nowhere to escape to.

The vampire caught up to him and laughed cruelly. tFJfXD

“How foolish. Did you think I wouldn’t have a way to catch you if you ran to the ocean? Have you forgotten? I have wings!”

After speaking, the vampire’s black, skin-tight suit split open down the back. Two massive, black bone wings unfurled to their full length, gleaming from the light of the moon and seeming even more peculiar because of it.

Hua Ji couldn’t be bothered to turn his head back. The vampire behind him was only a baron, and their strength was about equal. If it wasn’t for China having a law that restricted animals from becoming spirits after the founding of the country, and those that had already become spirits had to restrict their power, causing his cultivation to be incredibly slow, he would have long since turned that damned bat into a plate of barbecued wings.

However, this terrain truly was a bad match-up for him. He was a fox spirit at the water’s edge, what was he supposed to do?

A shrill whistle sounded out close to his ear, and Hua Ji immediately twisted his body to dodge out of the way. In the next instant, razor-sharp nails cut through the air right beside his ears, barely missing his throat!

No, this couldn’t go on.

Just as Hua Ji prepared to unleash a big attack, he felt a sudden coolness beneath his feet.

Shock flashed through him. This was bad, he had unknowingly run into the ocean! cjImpC

The waves brushed against the shore with a whooshing sound. Hua Ji’s feet skidded, and his limbs flailed as he slid out three or four metres. Through sheer blind luck, it allowed him to avoid the vampire’s incoming attack.

The vampire roared with laughter. “Aiyo, your little moonwalk was pretty good, fitting for a little celebrity playing around in showbiz.”

Hua Ji didn’t have the spare attention to fire back a retort. He eyed the ocean with suspicion, the hair on his back prickling.

The pitch-black ocean surface faintly glimmered from the moonlight, the seawater surging with a strange rhythm. The sound of the waves sounded like murmuring, and faintly, Hua Ji sensed something approaching. 7XODmk

He subconsciously retreated, but was stopped in his tracks by the vampire’s attack, his long and sharp claws gripping onto his shoulders. Without giving Hua Ji the chance to unleash his fox fire, an iron chain wrapped around his neck as the vampire began laughing savagely.

“Hahaha, where are you running to?!”

Hua Ji flew into a rage, “You idiot, I’ll give you 50 thousand, just quickly let me go!”

The vampire paused, asking, “Are you certain? You’ll give me 50 thousand?”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Just as the vampire was plotting to first get the 50 thousand from Hua Ji before recapturing him to complete his mission and get another 30 thousand for a total of 80 thousand, the sea level quickly started rising. Within a second, it went from the top of his feet to his calves.

The vampire lowered his head to look. “Hm?” 2DT zI

Hua Ji was on the verge of tears. Foxes were born with a natural sense for danger. He could sense that an immense danger was approaching, yet was captured by that vampire who would sell himself for a mere 30 thousand and was unable to escape.

Seawater continued to rush towards the beach. The moon was hazy, but the vampire race had naturally good eyesight, and the vampire currently had his gaze pinned on the ocean. The hand holding onto the iron chain relaxed slightly as he asked Hua Ji in a low tone, “Hey, do you feel something?”

Hua Ji wailed, “It feels like we’re about to die!”

The vampire furrowed his brows, loosening his grip on the iron chain to avoid strangling his mission target to death; after all, the employer specifically requested for him to be captured alive. He then looked towards the ocean again, and upon a second glance… Dear Satan, what the hell is that? Rc16Me

The ocean seemed to be covered in a thin, transparent membrane, suffused with a strange lustre and rippling with bright colours. It was as if there was a countless number of fish all swimming together. At the same time, the vampire and Hua Ji bumped into something.

The vampire’s wings flapped and he flew directly into the sky. Hua Ji desperately pumped his legs.“You @#¥%&… my, my neck!”

The vampire instantly flew lower. Aiya, can’t strangle the target to death.

Hua Ji once again plummeted into the sea, yet this time his feet stepped on something soft. What, what did he just step on? Nt8dTA

“Hey, you’re stepping on me.”

A crisp voice rang out. Hua Ji craned his neck and looked around, but didn’t see anything.

“Look below you, below you. You’re stepping on me.”

Hua Ji instantly leaped upwards. In the instant he jumped, something seemed to flash by below his feet. When he fell back into the ocean, what he felt beneath his feet was at last the familiar texture of the beach. 643dCr

After that, both he and the vampire  witnessed the occurrence of a miracle.

Something seemed to be pressing against the water’s surface, causing it to bulge upwards. A transparent membrane unhurriedly rose up into the air. Through the milky-white membrane, Hua Ji could even see the moon as well as the pitch-black reefs behind it. Through the membrane, the scene was distorted, as if it were a window into another dimension.

“What are you two doing?”

A massive membrane floated on the water’s surface. Hua Ji gaped in disbelief at the sight. It was at least a hundred metres long. After rising to its full height, it was at least five or six stories high. Standing in front of it, he seemed as tiny as a piece of dried meat about to be wrapped by a sheet of cling film. 6aYjQd

The vampire was similarly so shocked by what he saw, he even forgot to flap his wings, causing him to plunge into the water with a splash.

After all, the area the ‘cling film’ encompassed even included him!

The transparent cling film looked at the two dazed pieces of dried meat, repeating, “What are you two doing? Could this be the revenge killing written about in books?”

Hua Ji quickly regained his senses. In the legends within China, everything had a soul, anything could become a spirit. Just take it that the cling film became a spirit! lPiDS

He instantly said, “This senior, please help me out, help me get rid of the bat spirit behind me! I’ll pay you!!”

The vampire also returned to his senses, tightening his grip on the iron chain, vigilantly staring at the cling film. “What are you? Do you want to fight with me over the reward? Let me tell you, I’ve already recorded this down in the mercenary guild, this mission is mine! Even if you want to take this mission, you’ll have to wait for me to fail first!”

The ‘cling film’ shook. It didn’t understand what these two people were talking about, but it didn’t matter.

It said, “You are tastier, let me have a bite and I’ll help you.” hn2icH

It was talking to the vampire.

The vampire was enraged, his originally pale white face flushed red from his anger, “What did you say? You dare to insult me? I, Douglas Jin Aladekel, challenge you to a duel!!”

The ‘cling film’ felt the vampire fury but couldn’t understand why he got so angry.

He asked the other little dried meat, “If I help you get rid of him, what can you give me?” gZRSnV

Hua Ji straightforwardly replied, “Everything! Everything!”

The cling film was very satisfied. No matter if it was the most widespread English or the Chinese that had the most speakers, it understood both.

In the next second, the whistling of the waves ceased and the waves abruptly increased in height all the way until they reached ten metres tall, crashing down as if they were blanketing the sky and covering the earth. The vampire let out a startled shriek before his body became an afterimage and vanished.

However, nobody saw a transparent, milky-white tentacle silently poking at those afterimages, sticking onto the vampire. 0z5gqF

The vampire was like a yoyo being pulled back, landing heavily on top of the cling film.

Hua Ji watched in shock as something on the cling film started to flash. One dot, two dots, three dots, what the f*ck are these innumerable flickering dots of light.

They were eyes.

The densely packed eyes opened wide, fixated on the vampire stuck onto the tentacle. YVSQXm

The cling film said, “Smells delicious.”

The moment the vampire turned his head back, he was instantly scared stiff by the numerous eyes, unable to hold back a screech. He made a prompt decision and actually used his left hand to cut off his own right hand!

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

In the next second, his body became a bloody mist and vanished.

The cling film was stunned, its tone disappointed, “He vanished.” 6LZaVF

Once it caught sight of the right hand still stuck on its tentacle, it cheered up again. “I can eat it next time.”

After that, the tentacle took that right hand that was still dripping blood and shoved it inside the back end of the cling film. Hua Ji clearly saw the hand instantly turn into countless threads of fresh blood, circulating inside the transparent cling film’s body. In the blink of an eye the milky-white membrane became a bloody red.

The round moon shone through its body, becoming a blood moon.

Hua Ji lay blankly on the beach, his body colder than the seawater. Pumytr

He mumbled, “You, what exactly are you…”

In only a few seconds, the cling film returned to its original milky-white, the countless dots of light on the membrane all gathering at Hua Ji’s side. Being stared at by so many eyes, Hua Ji’s body tensed up, not daring to move a muscle.

The cling film’s body began shrinking, little by little. At the same time, its body gave off a multicoloured radiance, actually becoming a person!

He was an extremely handsome man, with a high brow and deep-set eyes. His pupils were silvery-white, and his skin was so fair it was bordered on white.  He had white eyebrows and pale lips, and wore a milky-white robe, like clothes from ancient Greece, with an ocean-blue sash tied around his waist. Looking closely, that white robe even had ripples undulating like water. i8yGD0

The man had a head of long, silvery-white hair, with only a few locks draping down his front and the rest falling down his back and into the water, as if spreading out a silver curtain of light. They drifted up and down along with the waves, beautiful to the extreme.

He lifted his feet, walking towards Hua Ji.

Hua Ji blankly looked at the god-like man in front of him. He was truly unable to believe that just ten seconds ago this man was still a piece of cling film!!

The man opened his mouth, his voice sounding silky-smooth like the sea. LesSNC

“I am a jellyfish.” He repeated, “A jellyfish that has existed since the creation of the Earth.”

Translator's Note

Literally “blood race”, which isn’t the usual term for vampires. Usually vampires are called “blood-sucking ghosts”.

  3. Ohhh no wonder his jellyfish form is huge to the point it become indistinguishable for Hua Ji and bat-man. Since the creation of Earth! Man is ancient, he might as well say he is the Earth itself lol.
