Chapter 314: Night Work
Chapter 314: Night Work
Night had just come after a day that had been both fun and tiring.
After spending time until dusk coming to various places, Elysia and her group returned to the Imperial Palace. They were invited by the Royal Families to have dinner together.
It seemed the Royal Families of various kingdoms really wanted to build a better relationship with Elysia, and Elysia herself could not refuse either for whatever reason.
When it was all over and night came, the parents asked the girls to rest because tomorrow was the first day for the academy to reopen. Elysia was assigned to share a room with Ella and Evelyn for some reason.
Elysia glanced at the girl who was tidying the large bed for a moment, then she looked up at the night sky through the window. She let out a soft sigh as she remembered the two bad guys at Ecclesiastical Prison.
Nell really interrogated them down to even the most trivial details. Still, the most important thing for Elysia and Elana was the bad guys’ main objectives.
That man named Reggie was planning to make some stunning beauties with great backgrounds fall for him using that dirty and despicable way. Those innocent girls would be used as stepping stones to his ridiculous dreams.
Apart from that, he also had the delusion of living with ten to twenty stunning beauties, a harem like the Western Kingdom’s Emperor.
As for the elf, he was just an elf from the Elven Royal Family who fled because he didn’t want to be involved in the war. A coward who only wanted a full life of prosperity at all costs. He left after stealing some of his family’s belongings to live independently.
‘Ely, are you still thinking about those pests?’ Elena conveyed her concern with a gentle tone. She had been awake since Elysia had dinner with the Royal Families.
‘En. Who would have thought that that person was after Eve and Ella, I am included, for such a purpose.’ Elysia closed her eyes for a moment, then closed the curtain. She walked over to the sofa and sat there.
‘Hehe, why are you saying you are a bonus, Ely? You are the jackpot one. They are just insignificant people, and you can forget about them, Ely. After all, that little Goddess had already taken care of them in that prison.’ Elena suggested while relaxing. She didn’t put those two pests in her mind anymore.
‘En, I was somewhat relieved to find out that only one victim had fallen prey in that person’s hands. That person was so confident of obtaining us just because he managed to conquer his personal servant using that ring. That elf man is the worst. He stole his family’s property and gave some of it just to guarantee a prosperous life.’ Elysia grumbled in annoyance. However, she still had a neutral expression on the outside.
Elysia took out a rather thick file from her Space Bag and put it on the table.
‘Well, that elf man ran out of money after arriving in the Holy Central Region. It’s quite reassuring that he has just given a little of his belonging to one person to guarantee his welfare.’ Elena shrugged her shoulders slightly.
‘Hehe, and all of that was already confiscated by Nell.’ Elysia chuckled in mind while checking the data produced by the Holy Church intelligence agents.
‘I’m a little sorry for the personal servant who has been brainwashed. Our little goddisciple had to hypnotize the girl so that girl would no longer be fascinated about that pest.’ Elena felt a little sympathy for the victim.
‘Those two people have already been handled by Nell. I was a little surprised when Nell turned the incident into an act of harassment. That young master needs to be imprisoned to atone for his sins. Eh? Would that person’s family atone for their son’s sins with money?’ Elysia wondered a little.
As far as she knew, someone who was imprisoned could get leniency or even release as long as there was the power of money, connections, or authority working for it.
‘Hehe, we are not on Earth, my dear Ely. Not to mention, it’s a special prison belonging to the Holy Cathedral. The rules are strictly enforced there. No rogue party can interfere with the verdict. Not to mention, that little Goddess is behind it all.’ Elena reassured her worrywart little sister with reasonable reasons.
When Elysia continued her conversation with Elena, Evelyn had just come out of the bathroom. She wiped her long blonde golden hair with a soft towel and glanced at the two girls in front of her. Yet, she focused on Elysia.
“Ely, are you going to take care of it at night like this? Can’t you just check the report tomorrow?” Evelyn walked over and sat beside her best friend.
“Ah, you’ve finished your shower, Eve? En, I need to check this tonight and make a record of work for Ayla. The initial stages of opening the Lavely Pizza branches need to be done at least.” Elysia gave Evelyn a sweet smile. She hoped Evelyn didn’t drag her onto the bed to sleep right away.
“Is that so? Hum, all right, let me help you. Tomorrow afternoon you will go with your master and the Goddess of Blessings, right?” Evelyn held out her hands. She asked for some documents to help her best friend.
“Allow me to help too.” Ella raised her hand high and got off the bed. She immediately sat on the other sofa, staring at her friends with a smile.
At that moment, Vanessa also wanted to help her master. She jumped off the bed and immediately headed for her master lap. The white cat was there for spiritual support and encouragement.
“Oh, all right. Thank you. Please help me choose a strategic location for our Lavely Pizza branches. In each city data file, we have at least three to six good options recommended by Granpa’s intel.” Elysia put some documents in front of her friends, sharing tasks as requested.
“Uh-huh, Roger.” Evelyn gave an ok hand gesture.
“Un, leave it to us. By working together, we will finish this faster.” Ella pumped her hands lightly for excitement before working with the pile of documents before her.
A moment later, Elysia and her two friends immediately created structured data about realising the branch opening of their business.
Evelyn and Ella were able to quickly complete their assignment. Choosing the best place based on a list of choices was an easy task because of the area research data and statistical details.
Although Elysia still needed to check that before making a compiled list of their preferred places. After that, she did some other work until the night was getting late.
“Fuaahh… Ely, it’s late. Let’s sleep.” Evelyn yawned then tugged her best friend’s sleeve. She rubbed her eyes with her other hand.
“Wait a few minutes. I’m almost done, Eve. Wait, wait, give me around five minutes more, don’t drag me onto the bed, please.” Elysia pleaded with urgency as Evelyn prepared to keep the promise.
“Hmph, fine. That’s five minutes. I’ll wait here.” Evelyn sat back in peace.
“Phew…” Elysia wiped her nonexistent sweat and went back to taking care of her paperwork.
Ella just chuckled from the side as she looked at her friends’ funny behavior. At that moment, she remembered something about what Elysia promised her. “Nee, Ely. Are your master and the Goddess of Blessings still in this city? This might sound a little presumptuous. Please forgive me. But, is it possible for me to meet the Goddesses to ask one question before you and the Goddesses leave tomorrow afternoon?”
“Ah, for that, I already asked that for you, Ella. Tomorrow morning before we leave for the academy. You can ask the Goddess of Blessings and my master for enlightenment, even if it’s not just one question.” Elysia responded with a quick glance at Ella and returned to her work.
“Woah, thank you very much, Ely. You’re truly my lifesaver. I keep remembering it, and it remains on my mind. I really need enlightenment.” Ela clasped her hands, and her eyes gleamed with gratitude.
“I promised you that, Ella. Don’t feel shy. I also want to see you become an angel one day, hehe… Will Ella still remember us, her mortal friends, at that time, right, Eve?” Elysia threw a light joke and smiled mischievously.
“Uh-huh, I’m also wondering.” Evelyn tilted her head slightly. However, she felt somewhat lost for several inexplicable reasons.
“There’s no way I’d do something like that, Ely. You’re being quite mean to me.” Ella pouted because of Elysia’s joke.
Yet, she had to revise her good name from the wrong assumption. “The angel is just a term, and it doesn’t mean the girl who earned that honorable title would attain the divinity. You may assume that the angel I mentioned is the mortal girl from Celestine Family who serves the Goddess of Blessings and carries out her divine existence’s direct orders.”
“I see. Please forgive me, Ella. So, will you have a pair of wings one day?” Elysia looked at Ella sincerely, then shifted the topic again. She was stalling for time so that Evelyn wouldn’t drag her onto the bed.
“I accept your apology, Ely. Hmm, I also don’t know about that. But, I hope I have one pair of wings like the Goddess of Blessings someday. Uh, wait, I remember, Ely. Your master has had no wings since last night. Is your master able to hide her divine wings?” Ella put her hand on the table with enthusiasm adorned her face.
“Yes, my master can do it.” Elysia nodded casually while writing a few other things. Her work was almost done.
After a few more conversations, Evelyn accidentally glanced at the clock. The ten minutes just passed. “Ely, it’s been over five minutes. Let’s sleep, it’s so late, and we still have the academy tomorrow morning. I’ll drag you onto the bed to sleep. One-“
“All right, I’m done, please don’t drag me. Here, please give this thick file and this document to Ayla tomorrow. She knows what she needs to do next with this.” Elysia raised her hands and then immediately passed the thick file binder to Evelyn.
“Okay, I’ll put this in a safe place first.” Evelyn received it. She went to the small table beside the bed and put the thick file binder into her Space Bag.
After that, she sat on the bed, waiting for the two girls on the sofa to join her.
Elysia glanced at Ella, and the latter did the same. They smiled helplessly, then nodded as if they were in the same boat. Elysia carried the cat on her lap, and the two of them went to join Evelyn on the bed.
The girls bid each other goodnight, and they closed their eyes for a comfortable sleep.
