Chapter 514: Back to Maze
As there was nothing left inside the Dimension Lock, a big question arose in everyone’s mind, except for Elysia and Elena.
They all seemed a little less convinced that it would be that easy to exterminate a God-level accursed monster. Even though it was just a divine spirit within a mortal body, it was still something with significant risk.
The Ruvoid God had been exterminated, but where did all the energy curses go? Elysia and Elena only touched the Dimension Lock’s barrier. Then the dangerous overflowing curse energy slowly faded away before completely dissipating.
Rhea, Nell, and Oceanid looked at Elysia and Elena with a question mark in their mind. Meanwhile, Xero just stroked his chin as if he was interested and wanted to know more about this pair of master and disciple.
Elysia and Elena were aware that they were receiving stares that seemed to be expecting an explanation. However, they had a bit of a problem after absorbing the purified energy.
[| Lv. 40 | Apprentice Mage | Elysia Avery | Female (16) | HP: 6,400 / 6,400 | EP: 4,502e+9 / – |]
[| STR: 5 | AGI: 26 | VIT: 7 | INT: 5,025 |]
‘…’ Elysia fell silent, and so did Elena. A black screen with some white writing appeared before their eyes, but it made the two of them end up sighing softly.
‘Are we really not leveling up after all of that, Sister Elena? Why only our EP recovered and nothing else changed?’ Elysia blinked a few times and rubbed her eyes gently as if she couldn’t believe her current status.
‘I don’t know either, but it seems so, Ely. At least our EP is up one point from our highest number.’ Elena didn’t know what to say, but she chose to look on the bright side of the situation.
‘Well… We still have to be grateful for this. Perhaps, this is the only thing we get since our opponent is only a divine spirit? We might level up if we manage to take care of the divine body and divine soul sealed down there?’ Elysia stared at the large hole that Elena had previously made.
‘Hm, I think you’re right, Ely. We’ll deal with that later. For now, help me think of the proper reasons and explanations for those curious ones.’ Elena also thought the same thing. However, her current priority focus was not that far.
‘En, I’m good at wordplay. Is it alright for me to speak or shall I guide you to it, Sister Elena?’ Elysia looked at the surrounding divine beings and suggested.
‘It would be much better for me do the speaking and you helping me via our special telepathy line.’ Elena turned around casually.
‘All right.’ Elysia responded in agreement.
“What, was the Ruvoid God completely annihilated? Even though it was only his divine spirit, but I find it a bit strange that the desired result was achieved too easily.” Nell scratched her head in a bit of confusion.
“What do you mean by that, little one? So, you mean, your big sister’s plan is unreliable? This all came from her, yes? My precious disciple and I was just trying our best to ensure this Dimension Lock to launch an ultimate attacks.” Elena pointed her palm at Rhea. Elysia gave a suggestion to share the credit with others for help.
“That, err… But, uhm, well… As long as that cursed spirit is gone, then it’s fine.” Nell was confused about choosing the right words. On the one hand, if she asked further, she would seem to doubt her big sister.
“Hahaha, I know you can do it, my saviours! Even the accursed’s divine spirit is helpless before the two of you. You are truly extraordinary master-disciple, the grace of nature and heaven.” Oceanid laughed loudly. He was more concerned with the results, not the process.
“Hoho~ Interesting. Can you tell me what you just did to eliminate that weak God?” Xero folded his arms and looked inside the Dimension Lock. A dimensional crack was still there and had not been repaired yet.
“Truth be told, we didn’t do much other than strengthen this Dimension Lock and help to supply magic energy for ultimate attack. For the rest, you can ask the Goddess of Nature since she is the owner of this technique.” Elena simply delegated the rest to Rhea.
“The Goddess of Nature? So, you decided to use your real divine title, greeny?” Xero frowned and looked at the Goddess with long turquoise hair.
“Stop using strange nicknames to everyone. Also, what do you know about my real divine title?” Rhea responded with a neutral expression.
“Who knows. I only know that the Goddess of Life is not your real divine title.” Xero shrugged his shoulders and tilted his head.
“Hm…” Rhea put her hand to her chin while staring at the dimensional crack. She could fix that, but she just felt the extermination earlier was too easy than she thought.
A worry arose in her mind all of a sudden. What if the previous structured dimensional explosion in a limited scope failed to destroy that God-level accursed monster’s divine spirit? What might happen if that divine spirit managed to escape from here because of an unforeseen event?
Despite some worries in mind, Rhea decided to convey that to Elysia and Elena via private telepathy.
‘I see, that makes sense. So, what would you do in this situation, Rhea?’ Elena went with the flow remembering a single word wasn’t enough to make Rhea feel at ease.
‘Please forgive me for doubting your divinity. However, I think that the Soul Fox on Beastkin Continent can help us with her foreboding, divination, or prophecy abilities. That way, we can know what might happen in the future in this place. After all, we can know whether that divine spirit managed to escape due to something we never expected or not. His divine body and soul are still sealed beneath this island, and I’m sure he will return here sometime soon if he survives.’ Rhea conveyed the solution that came to her mind politely.
‘Alright, let’s meet that Soul Fox after we take care of this place. Down there is still a masterpiece of a God and I feel a bit uneasy because Xero is around. He was capable to achieve the things I couldn’t imagine to this sealed area, considering his terrible achievements in recent events.’ Elysia expressed her understanding, but she also shared her worries.
‘There is no need to worry, Master Elysia. We will re-seal the entire maze after we venture into the maze’s core room. Honestly, the only thing we need to worry about is that divine body and soul sealed in the deepest floor. As for the rest, Xero won’t create any major problems because he’s not that stupid to trigger my wrath.’ Rhea smiled to tell Elysia and Elena about the best solution.
‘If you say so… Then fine.’ Elysia looked at each other and nodded.
Meanwhile, Dylan and Sylvia were frowning as they could only hear a tiny part of the divine beings’ conversation. For the rest, the divine beings simply exchanged information with no sound or any lip movement.
“What are they talking about? I can’t hear anything anymore? Or are they just using language on an unknown frequency? Or maybe, telepathy?” Sylvia asked in wonder.
“They are speaking the language of Gods.” Dylan answered simply. He cared more about the dimensional crack because it could cause a disaster that he couldn’t imagine in his wildest mind.
However, the turquoise-haired Goddess simply swung her hand, and the dimensional crack gradually shrank and disappeared from everyone’s sight. It was as if there had never been any damage there.
“Are we going back to the deepest floor again? Hm, okay…” Nell nodded in understanding after her big sister told her.
However, she did not feel at ease because one annoying creature was around. She turned to the Evil God and spoke in an impolite manner. “I’m warning you before you mess up and create big trouble. Don’t try to do anything weird in the maze down there, especially to the sealing areas.”
“Hou? Is that a threat or a warning of concern? But, a maze left by a God, hmm? I’d like to get some stuff out of there for my experiments. Who built the maze down there to seal that weak God?” Xero heaved a subtle breath as if he didn’t care. He looked at the large hole in the ground with some interest.
“The God of Sky, that’s what we can conclude.” Oceanid looked up at the sky and sighed.
“That blue-haired man? Is he still alive?” Xero went near the hole and looked far down.
“Who knows, but his signs of life aren’t the slightest bit down there. I hope he’s still alive somewhere in the world.” Oceanid shook his head and flew toward the hole.
“I see…” Xero didn’t say much and just jumped into the hole.
Elysia, Elena, and Rhea looked at each other. Then they went near the hole with Nell.
Just before they returned to the maze, Elysia was reminded of the two devils still within the layered barrier in the corner. “Eh, wait a minute. Sylvia and her father are still there. Are we going to leave them there, or invite them to come with us?”
“Uhm? It doesn’t matter whether they come or not. We’ll be fine whatever you decide to do with them.” Nell answered as if she didn’t care about those two devils.
“Then let’s take them if they want.” Elysia nodded and revoked the layered barrier.
“Ely, everyone! You can’t go without me. I want to come too, and please don’t leave me here with my father!” Sylvia exclaimed with both hands on either side of her mouth.
“Then, come with us.” Elysia replied with a hand gesture for the devils to come closer.
“Eh? Un!” Sylvia groped the air to make sure there was no barrier in front of her. Her voice was finally heard, and she immediately ran off to join her friend.
“…” Dylan just followed behind, feeling a little strange. His daughter seemed to treat him like a detested one.
