Chapter 960 The New Beginning
Doll One then told her the arrangement for Number One, and she received approval from Elysia and the Goddesses. Lifa then revealed a technique to enter the combined seal where Number One was sealed.
"Master, the spirit seed that you implanted into my spirit has already grown into a spirit embryo. I would mold my spirit as you wish, but..." Doll One felt a bit embarrassed to ask, but she mustered her courage to finish her sentence. "But may I know your ideal preference?"
"Hmm?" Elysia blinked her eyes in confusion, but she immediately understood that Doll One wished to form a spirit according to her ideal preferences.
Even so, she felt happy to hear it. So, Doll One would be a fully-fledged living entity worthy of a name. "You can shape your spirit according to your characteristics. What's certain, you can't imitate the appearance of someone in our group. You don't have to rush to form your spirit because I'm not going anywhere."

Even so, she felt happy to hear it. So, Doll One would be a fully-fledged living entity worthy of a name. "You can shape your spirit according to your characteristics. Of course, you can't imitate someone from our group. You don't have to rush into forming your spirit because I'm not going anywhere."
"This servant understands. However, however, could you bestow on me a name now? You promised me." Doll One looked at Elysia with a hopeful look.
She had successfully formed her spirit, although it had not yet taken the form of an entity. However, Elysia's conditions were met, and she should have gotten a name. A blessed name from her master.
"Very well. From now on, I will give you the name Zera. It can mean children, seed, and new beginning... The beauty of dawn. You are Zera, a member of my pantheon. You hold your own destiny, and that bound to us. Even if you have a cursed power, it is not the curse as long as you use it for good purposes." Elysia extended her hand to Zera.
"Zera greet master. I was released and saved by you. In this new life, I am your loyal follower and faithful servant." Zera knelt down and kissed the back of Elysia's hand. She then pressed her forehead there.
She conveyed her submission, but energy soon surged from within her soul like a massive tide.
The mysterious energy wrapped her new spirit in warmth and comfort. A golden light within the darkness of the void woven her into a fateful relationship that bound her to her master.
"!?" Zera widened her eyes as she could feel the presence of everyone's spirits. Now, she couldn't escape, and her fate was locked with everyone, giving her a sense of belonging.
Zera felt it. She was a newly reborn person, not an incarnation of a cursed monster. Elysia was her master, and Elysium was her home... Here was a place where she was treated as a person, not a tool.
"Good, you've worked hard and now is the time for you to rest. Although your body is special and can be shaped at will, you need to adopt your ideal form. You already have an identity, and it's no good forever being my clone, Zera." Elysia stroked Zera's head.
"It's not good?" Zera glanced at Ai briefly, then nodded in understanding. She had to shape her body, not mimic her master's appearance.
'Master is fond of beautiful girls with charming looks and alluring bodies. I need to form a perfect body then.' Zera muttered in her mind.
She then turned into a black lump, transforming her body into a mature woman with a divine appearance. The Goddess of Light, Elysia's Guardian Goddess, were her reference. She had to display her best divine body for her master.
"What do you think, master?" Zera spun around once, flicked her skirt, and looked at her master proudly.
"Stunning, gorgeous. Your golden hair is like the dazzling light of dawn, and your eyes are like a pair of the warm dawn sun. Smooth white jade skin. You exude an elegant and mature aura. I feel like a baby daughter here." Elysia put her hands together, happy that Zera finally had a personal form.
"Am I not satisfying enough? Should I make myself a little younger? What about the measurements of my bust, waist and hips?" Zera double-checked her three-size measurements. She was sure to use a golden ratio as a reference for perfection.
"Exquisite. You will be my protector, so mature lady is the best choice. You are perfect in this form, so this is you. Welcome to Elysium, Zera." Elysia opened her arms wide, giving a greeting with a bright smile.
"Yes!" Zera was glad.
"Hum, even though you are one of Ely's protectors, you are the one who joined after us. So, you are our junior sister!" Sylvia hugged Zera from behind. She felt excellent and satisfied after confirming the most worrisome entity in the group was attached to Elysia.
"Mm, let's play with us before sleep, junior sister. We would like to know a few things about you."<.com>
"Fufu, we got a divine little sister."
"Yes, it doesn't matter who is older or stronger."
"Hehe, you might get your divine battlesuit tomorrow too~"
"You got the blessed name bestowed by our master, so good."
"Yay, Xentia got a comrade with similar background story!"
The girls then dragged Zera for some night chat. They felt enthusiastic and challenged to know Zera more because this girl was a former Ruvoid Avatar.
'You can also change your body shape with your imagination magic, but you are here and sometimes complain because you are the shortest and youngest.' Elena hugged Elysia from behind, watching Zera overwhelmed by the relationship between the sisters.
'It's just a figurative expression, without any deep meaning. You are my perfect form, why do I need another form?' Elysia held Elena's hand.
'Fufu, sweet talk. Let's sleep together.' Elena smiled gently and then went to bed.
A few moments later, the girls decided to go to bed. They hadn't slept much in the last three days, and that night was a calming relief event for everyone.
"Master, I need to return to my home bracelet. I want to leave the seed of doubt with Number One." Zera crawled to Elysia, asking permission to return to her personal realm.
"Okay, but please be careful. Take this just in case. The Ruvoid Avatar can attack directly against souls and spirits." Elysia gave her a spirit and soul protection talisman just as a precaution. She was confident her spirit connection could protect Zera, but it wouldn't hurt to be vigilant.
"I also have that capability, but Zera understands. Number One is quite dangerous, and Zera will be careful." Zera was happy that Elysia cared about her. She then stored the talisman in her Space Storage, but it looked like she had tucked it into her cleavage.
After that, she entered her home bracelet on Elysia's wrist.
'Let's monitor her a bit.' Elena put her finger on Zera's home bracelet.
'Okay.' Elysia agreed with that.
"..." Rhea didn't say anything, and she just hugged Elysia's arm in silence. She just needed to make sure nothing terrible happened to Elysia. The business of Zera or Number One meant little to her.
Meanwhile, Zera had just created a temporary entrance for her to enter the combined formation seal where Number One was shackled.
Elysia's clone stood in the middle of the void with hundreds of fiber-like chains completely sealing her movements, including her curse energy and passive skills.
"Who?" Number One opened her eyes and put up a bit of resistance out of reflex.
Unfortunately, the combined seal formation drained her energy once again. She tried to reabsorb her power, but the seal retaliated fiercely. She was just a helpless little girl who could only maintain her current form.
An elegant lady with a divine-like appearance stepped closer. For a glance, Number One thought this lady was the Goddess of Light or Fortuna, but she mistook the person when she took a closer look at this golden-haired girl.
"Hum-mm, you no longer recognize me even though we've only been apart for a few hours? Ah, I forgot that my current form is ideal, favored by master. How have you been, eldest sister?" Zera put her hand on Number One's chin, forcing the other party to look at her face.
"You are Doll One!? Hateful, what did you do to Number Four?" Number One gritted her teeth as she could felt some familiar feeling from the lady before her.
"Fufu, that's an old code. I've been blessed with a name given by my honorable master. My name is Zera, the beauty of dawn, the splendor of rebirth and new beginning. Pleased to meet you." Zera gave a slight bow in an aristocrat-like introduction.
She then straightened her back. She pressed her hand to her cheek and smirked slightly. "To the destiny of Number Four and other Numbers... Don't you already know the answer?"
