Chapter 763: Go to Earth (2)
“Are you all ready to go to Planet Earth?” Lifa asked the girls behind Elysia.
“Mm, we’re fully prepared. Whether it’s humans, beasts, demons, or gods… we’ll fight whoever it is if it’s necessary.” Sylvia responded with a smile, but there was a faint sadistic hint behind it.
“No one is allowed to get on my master’s path.” Yuuki raised her fist.
“I will do anything to help my master!” Vanessa pumped her fists.
“I’m sure my abilities will be handy for this mission, especially for Elysia. The situation in the next few days may not look peaceful, but we can all get through it together.” Lynn gave a summary of her hunch. She knew some events were bound to happen.
“I don’t know what my role will be yet, but I will fight to be useful to our group!” Evelyn expressed her enthusiasm, even though she didn’t know her position and role in the group.
“Oh dear Eve, why would you say such a thing? Everyone has their own role, including you. I believe we will need everyone in the group for our mission to be successful.” Elysia smiled gently and gave Evelyn a head pat.
“You are so kind, Ely. I was wondering if you have something like multiple personalities. In Boundless Realm, you were sometimes like a nice girl, but sometimes like a savage demon.” Ai rolled her eyes. She didn’t know why girls became so docile and obedient to Elysia, even the Goddesses!
“!?” Vanessa was a little surprised. It reminded her of her master’s being so terrifying yet domineering in that desperate battle near the Holy City several weeks ago. One of the things she feared the most was her master being angry with her.
“Hm, multiple personalities? Maybe I have something like that, Ai. Would you like to see me like when we were in the red curse star?” Elysia closed her eyes and put her hand on Ai’s shoulder.
“Uh, I’m sorry. You getting annoyed or angry won’t solve anything. I’m just talking pointlessly.” Ai turned her gaze to the side. It was an event that shook her to the core regarding how terrifying Elysia could be. It was still so fresh in her mind!
“Hmm~ It was the event where I fought hard to save you from the dangerous curse zone, right? I thought that time you saw me as an awesome, great savior…” Elysia loosened her shoulders. She didn’t know Ai felt intimidated by the incident.
“Yeah… savior. Hey, you’re my friend. How can I-” Ai tried to correct herself, but Elysia suddenly pressed a finger to her lips.
“Are we still playing that? I explained to you about it honestly, didn’t I?” Elysia narrowed her eyes. She wished for a real friendship, and she didn’t like it if Ai still saw her as an enslaved person after everything that had happened.
“O-okay, I’m pronouncing the correct pronoun. That’s friend, not ‘friend’… You tricked me, but you are my friend, the real one, not that kind of ‘friend’.” Ai gulped her saliva. For some reason, the current Elysia could become far more overbearing than she could remember in the Boundless Realm. Elysia right now was also much more powerful in terms of magic!
‘I don’t like feeling dominated, but Lena and Elysia make me feel complicated… They just too- ugh, I don’t know. Ai muttered in her mind while scratching her head.
“I’m glad to hear that. Please take good care of me~” Elysia put her hands together and smiled sweetly like an innocent girl.
“Wow… Ely makes her alter ego docile and submissive.” Sylvia muttered under her breath. Luckily, Ai couldn’t hear that, or no one knew what would happen to the candid devil.
A while later, Elena and Rhea returned to the Nature Realm after escorting Ella to the Holy Cathedral.
‘Ely, we have arranged everything before our departure. Xero has just arrived and is waiting outside. Shall we go now?’ Elena sent telepathy.
‘Mm, thanks for the hard work. We’re leaving now.’ Elysia responded with a nod. She then told Lifa something via telepathy.
“All right. We will depart for Plant Earth soon, but all of you will remain here with me until the realm portal is reopened. Only the Goddess of Light, and the Goddess of Nature will accompany Elysia in the world transfer process. The Heretic God would be there to test whether he would be fine during the world-shifting teleportation. If something unexpected happens, he can take care of himself, but not with you.” Lifa told Elysia’s decision, but she rearranged her words to sound firm and absolute.
“Hm? Even me and Cherub? We’ll be fine. Wait, where’s Cherub?” Ai tried to bargain, but she couldn’t find her pet anywhere.
“He is currently playing on the beachfront with Gio. The decision is absolute, and I hope you understand.” Lifa looked towards the beach and checked the girls’ expressions.
“Mm, we can’t trouble Master Elysia. I was there during the world transfer to Planet Earth, which was very dangerous. Sylvi, you were also there and knew the terror of the dimensional hole to Earth, right?” Vanessa didn’t mind and immediately nudged Sylvia’s arm to support her opinion.
“Yeah, if it wasn’t for Ely, the Goddess of Light and the Goddess of Nature… Vann and I might have become stardust particles and disappeared with nothing left. We’ll wait here until Ely needs our help then.” Sylvia had goosebumps at the thought of that horrific scene.
“Is it that bad?” Ai tilted her head slightly. She was feeling doubtful and looked to Elysia for an answer.
“Yes, we expect all of you to wait until we get to Earth. We will be sharing some news with the Goddess of Blessings.” Elysia reassured everyone that it was for everyone’s good.
“Well, if you say it like that… Just be careful. You already informed her about your arrival, right?” Ai nodded in understanding without saying much more.
“I contacted Erina-san last night, and hopefully, everything goes according to plan. We will be cautious.” Elysia was fully aware of the risks of what she was about to do. The marker was just from a temporary spirit connection, after all.
“All right, see you again in a few hours.” Elena raised her hand in farewell.
“See you soon.” Elysia waved her hand to her friends.
The girls responded to the goodbye with a smile. However, Nell felt a little worried even though she knew that Elena and her big sister were present by Elysia’s side.
“Please be careful…” Nell muttered under her breath before the realm’s portal wholly closed.
“Hm, Ely is the holder of this realm’s key… Is she this realm’s master?” Ai suddenly asked while going towards the beach.
“This realm belongs to Ely and her master. I gift this entire realm to them because they have saved my life and my daughter’s. Your presence in this realm is a testament to our trust, so don’t ever betray our trust.” Lifa answered in a neutral tone and invited everyone to go toward the beach.
“I see… I believe Ely is a master of more than one realm. Am I right?” Ai glanced back.
“Why do you ask that?” Lifa closed her eyes.
“No particular reason. I just feel like the more I know Elysia, the more I don’t know about her. I thought I was the one who knew her the best since we’ve been together for so long, but it seems I’m the one who knows the least.” Ai sighed. The image of Elysia’s master flashed in her mind, and she felt a little annoyed at that Goddess for no reason. She just flew towards the beach.
Sylvia then covered her mouth and signaled to the Goddess of Life. “Psst…”
“Hmm?” Lifa raised her eyebrows, and this devil girl got her attention.
“Ai just felt annoyed and jealous. She thought she was closest to Elysia, but the facts said otherwise. She is a bit possessive towards Elysia but always loses to the Goddess of Light. Most importantly, she just realized that she is not stronger than Elysia. The one she knows in the Boundless Realm is a fragment of Elysia’s true power.” Sylvia spoke in a whisper-like voice. She was so amused about what happened yesterday.
“Oh, was that the time where Ely showed who the boss was?” Lynn can tell Ai’s dilemma.
“Yeah, that’s it. I just love Elysia’s superiority. Ai has been so docile to Ely since yesterday, right? Elysia and her just re-aligned their situation and position. I don’t know the details, but I know Ely is the boss, not Ai. A tiger reared a small prey, but the latter turned out to be a ferocious dragon.” Sylvia covered her mouth to share hot issues with enthusiasm.
“You really like gossip, huh… Ai is Ely’s twin sister and shadow. That’s what she admits. Don’t talk bad behind her back.” Nell rolled her eyes and flew away to the beach.
“Ugh, why the tiger? Let’s end this conversation. We will wait for further news from Master Elysia and the others on the beach!” Vanessa gave a dismissive hand wave and flew to the beach. She still felt a bit sullen because her aunt and uncle went on a mission without saying anything to her this morning, but she would see them again next month.
The girls immediately ended their gossip and followed to the beach. Lifa just smiled and shook her head before following the others.
Meanwhile, Elena just revoked any of their tracks around the abandoned wooden hut. A boy with white hair and red eyes was leaning against a nearby tree trunk. He seemed to be waiting for something.
“What took you so long? Never mind, are you all ready to go? Open the interworld dimensional portal to Planet Earth now. I can’t wait to finish that Ruvoid God into nothingness, hee-hee…” Xero clenched his fist with a peculiar laugh.
