Chapter 547: Testing the Magic Wand
Chapter 547: Testing the Magic Wand
“Long ago, about ten years before the end of the ancient era… A black star came approaching this world from outer space. It floated a thousand kilometers from the atmosphere of this world. More than hundreds of thousands of pitch-black creatures entered this world without any declaration.
They scattered throughout the world to inflict terror on all the inhabitants of this world. It was like a surprise attack, and we, including all the creatures of this world, had no other choice but to strike back without knowing anything.
At that time, none of us knew their identities and why they launched the invasion. After a year of all-out fighting, we finally got God-level enemies to jump into the battlefield.
At that moment, we finally realized a surprising fact about them. Those curse-bearing monsters had the main goal of claiming this world as their new base and making all the inhabitants of this world their minions.
They could turn living beings into mindless cursed beings who would simply obey their every command.
We don’t know the in-depth details, even now, because those we now refer to as the Ruvoid Race don’t divulge any information about them. We don’t deserve to know anything because we are inferior beings. That was what they were saying.
After that, a terrible war that lasted for nine years broke out for the worst. Enemies could come at any time, and some of them could multiply into an army.
Despair, that was what everyone felt. Until finally, the definitive decision to seal the cursed creatures was declared by the strongest God. More than half of us fell in that nine-day and nine-night battle. And those of us who survived received an extremely severe impact.” After talking until there, Rhea paused to look Elysia in the eye.
“I see. It seems it’s not as simple as I know it to be. They are not as simple as the evil beings who want something in this world. They want everything, and the living things in this world don’t deserve to live unless we become part of them as mindless minions?” Elysia put her hand on her chin and frowned.
The next moment, Elena instantly exited the Soul Realm and materialized herself. She asked urgently because this information carried a lot of weight. “Do you know where they came from? Did they come here with a black star? Is that star still around? I feel something has happened to their original world, and they are nothing more than refugees in need of a new home.”
“The black star was destroyed in the final nine-day decisive battle. For the rest, please forgive me as I don’t know about them because mind-reading methods don’t work on them at all. Information about the Ruvoid Race was minimal.” Rhea shook her head with a somewhat gloomy expression.
“I see… So, that’s why that Ruvoid God’s divine spirit was so surprised when Ely mentioned his true name.” Elena glanced at Elysia with an understanding gaze. Everything is clear now.
“Yeah! They’re so arrogant and obnoxious! If there’s no more information about them, we just need to destroy their remnants without any reason. The real evidence of the destruction they caused is undeniable.” Nell squeezed her hand into a fist.
After saying that, she realized what Elena had just said and she remembered it too! “Ahem, Ely… Can I know how you found out about that Ruvoid God’s true name? They didn’t want us to know about them, but that divine spirit was so shocked and angry when you said his name.”
“For that… Uhm, I knew that because I could fathom it.” Elysia felt confused to explain because it was difficult to put into words.
“…” Nell opened her mouth, but she didn’t know what to say. She looked at her big sister, but the latter also looked at her in confusion.
That was really a surprising answer, but it didn’t explain anything!
“Pfft, Ely, you really answered that with such an innocent expression? That, fufu…” Elena covered her mouth as she chuckled.
“No, it really is. I knew it was because I could see it.” Elysia waved her hands in front of her body.
“Ah, I see. I believe this is one of your eye abilities, Master Elysia. I suspected this before, but it seems that there are many secrets and mysteries hidden within your vision.” Rhea nodded in understanding. She tried to look deep into Elysia’s eyes as if trying to unravel a mystery. Yet, she was thrown back into the real world because she was rejected by the unknown force.
“Don’t try to do something like that again without permission.” Elena reminded firmly.
“My apologies. I understand.” Rhea lowered her head. She was being presumptuous because of a curious reflex.
After that, the four of them exited the room. Rhea then gave the silver-gold magic wand to Nell, then gave a wish to Oceanid. “Sea God, can you accompany my little sister to test this magic item? Although I’m sure that it will meet my expectations, we still have to prove its effectiveness.”
“All right, ma’am!” Oceanid got up from his liquid seat and agreed without asking anything.
“Good. We’ll be gone for a while. You all stay until we get back, okay?” Nell voiced her wish to everyone, especially the self-absorbed girls in the living room.
The girls answered enthusiastically right after, but Elena and Elysia had other concerns.
Elena then asked Rhea before Nell and Oceanid went away. “Hm? Will they be okay?”
“They won’t be affected by anything even if they go into the sealed area or go to meet the Evil God. All they’ll do is activate that magic wand and stick it into the ground. That wand will work with satisfactory results, and I’m sure of it.” Rhea felt so confident with her handcrafted item.
“If you say so.” Elena just shrugged her shoulders and put the matter aside. She then felt a girl staring at her from the side. “Hmm?”
Lynn just looked at the golden-haired Goddess beside Elysia with a dazed expression.
“Please be careful. You could lose your way if you stare at me for too long.” Elena waved her hand in front of her face.
“Eh-ah, um… Sorry for being so rude.” Lynn came out of her. She then bowed in apology right away.
“That’s fine. So, what are you playing there? I heard that each of you just completed an amazing item design. I wonder what you have in mind towards that.” Elena smiled faintly and walked over to the girls and little beasts.
She opened a light conversation to find out the background behind their request.
Meanwhile, Nell and Oceanid flew straight into the thousands of kilometers into the southeastern ocean. They decided to meet the Evil God because it was the easiest way to test the silver-gold magic wand’s effectiveness. After all, the Evil God possessed the same curse energy as the accursed creatures.
“Wow, it’s pretty easy to find him. He’s not hiding his divine aura at all. Is he up to something? What do you think?” Nell grinned to see an island a few kilometers ahead.
“I think he’s cultivating over there. He’s meditating in that cave, right?” Oceanid pointed to a disguised cave at the top of the cliff’s edge.
“Then this is perfect. Let’s annoy him.” Nell grinned mischievously.
They landed near the mouth of the cave. Nell peeked inside, and the Evil God seemed to be sleeping in a cross-legged position. He just stayed there with several black aura formations around him.
“Hey, Shiro, I came for trouble!” Nell exclaimed while waving her hand.
“And make it double.” Oceanid went beside Nell.
The corners of Xero’s lips twitched to hear those annoying voices of his old acquaintances. He opened one eye slightly, then closed it again with a frown. “What do you want? Has it been a week since that day? I’m preparing to eradicate that Curse God with my absolute power, don’t bother me.”
“Hehe, it hasn’t been seven days since that day, but we came to test this magic wand.” Nell took out a silver-gold metal staff about 20 times her height.
“Hm? You want to test that lowly stick on me? Keke, that’s ridiculous. Are you feeling so bored that you decided to mess with me, hmm?” Xero opened his eyes, but he squinted them as he felt insulted by that taunt.
“Hehe, this is a magic item that my big sister and I made with the help of the Goddess of Light. It’s a unique weapon that can eradicate the accursed easily and practically. It’s still under development, and I’d like to challenge you to try the zone of absolute end with the so-called absolute power of yours. Do you dare to try it?” Nell threw another taunt with a smirk.
“I want to beat you now.” Xero shook his hand, and dozens of black crystals instantly shot into his hand. He then got up because the little rascal made him unable to continue his activities.
“Oops, you can’t hurt me, or my big sister and the Goddess of Light will beat you up into pulp for me. Alright, I’ll stick this right here, and you just have to try to get close to this magic wand or try to escape the zone of the absolute end. One, two, three, active. Goodbye and good luck~” Nell stuck the silver-gold magic wand near the mouth of the cave. After setting it on, she immediately fled as quickly as possible with Oceanid next to her.
“It’s a bold statement. Heh, what exactly can that tacky wand do to the almighty me?” Xero snorted contemptuously. He then walked over to that magic wand.
At the same time, he received a violent thud that knocked him back then knocked him to the ground. His skin felt like it was burning, but that was nothing compared to his shock.
