Chapter 293: Two G.o.ddesses Stay Overnight
Elysia and Nell landed near the camouflaged barrier.
At the same time, the barrier was revoked without being asked. More than 200 humans in armor were there as if they were ready for war.
A man in black gold armor and a man in white blue armor walked closer with reverence. Really, it was so different from how the devils had treated the Evil G.o.d.
Elysia knew this man in black gold armor. She just met him recently, and he was none other than Emperor Elliott.
However, this Emperor in bluish-white armor... Raylee"s father? Elysia looked at their status screen and wondered. She believed that was true because they shared the same surname. Despite that, she was a little stunned to find out that Harold was there too.
"It is an honor for us to meet your exalted presence, the G.o.ddess of Light." Elliott saluted with a bow, and Raphael followed after.
They wanted to greet the little G.o.ddess who was hovering beside the G.o.ddess of Light, but they didn"t know what to say. A bit ridiculous, the two of them just glanced at the little G.o.ddess as if they felt a familiar feeling but couldn"t remember it.
"Hmm? Don"t you recognize my n.o.ble ident.i.ty?" Nell spoke in Aefasy. She was confused because these two Emperors only stared at her for a moment without saying anything.
"Please forgive our impudence for failing to recognize your ident.i.ty. However, if you wish, may you tell us your n.o.ble ident.i.ty, o Divine G.o.ddess?" Raphael didn"t want to look audacious and rude, but he just didn"t know. Even Emperor Elliott was looking at him for help.
"Really, I was forgotten that easily by my people? If so, who do you worship in every Holy Church?" Nell slacked her shoulders, feeling a little helpless at being forgotten.
"Are- Are you the G.o.ddess of Blessings?" Raphael stuttered at that. He was able to a.s.sume only with the implied answer just now.
In response to that, Nell just gave an approving smile with a gentle nod.
It wasn"t just the two Emperors who were dumbfounded, the experts behind them too. They didn"t linger for long and immediately knelt down to salute and greet their G.o.ddess. "It is incomparable honor for us to meet your exalted self, O the G.o.ddess of Blessings."
"That"s just fine. I a.s.sume your arrival on the Devil Continent is due to the phenomenon created by the Evil G.o.d earlier, correct?" Nell pointed with an open palm. She asked, and the two Emperors as representatives gave their confirmation.
"Very well, we will return to the Human Continent, and so will you. The problem has been resolved by the G.o.ddess of Light." After saying that, Nell sent telepathy to the G.o.ddess behind her. "GrandG.o.dmaster, can you help me take these more than 200 people with us back to the Human Continent? You can drop them off at any nearby town."
"Sure." Elysia didn"t mince words because she wanted to come back soon.
"Wa- Please wait. At the very least, please tell us a few details about what just happened. If this needs to be said, a combat-ready brigade was prepared for the worst. Accursed monsters, sealed areas, devils, and strange phenomena... All of that has made us so alert and tense." Elliott immediately stood up and asked for a bit of clarification. If they were just brought back to the Human Continent just like that, what should he say to the others?
"Do you want me to explain that, Nell?" Elysia offered to help because she felt Nell was a little bewildered.
"No, let me explain to them." Nell refused at once, then looked for a few nice words before opening her mouth. "Mm, the Evil G.o.d has just performed a ritual to strengthen himself. The gigantic ball of energy in the air and the pitch-black clouds just a moment ago was the effect of it. The G.o.ddess of Light came to help me to oppose the Evil G.o.d, but she came up with another solution as a neutral side. Then, you"ve seen what happens as the outcome."
The two Emperors and experts nodded their heads in understanding. Then, they looked at the G.o.ddess of Light with reverence and deep grat.i.tude.
Simultaneously, Elysia also conferred a little with Elena regarding the preparations made by Pope Alexander to fight against accursed monsters.
They decided to have a discussion with the authority holders within the Human Continent, and the Human Emperors were on the list. Incidentally, the two Emperors were in front of Elysia right now. So, she might as well announce the top-level meeting with Nell as the spokesperson.
"My kind grandG.o.dmaster, it"s about time we go and take them with us." Nell gave a signal when the brief conversation was over. However, Elysia had something to say before she took everyone away.
"I will visit Cuttexus City, and I will also take you there. Human Emperor Raphael and Human Emperor Elliott... I a.s.sume you already know about accursed monsters and sealed areas. A lot of preparations are being made by Pope Alexander and possibly others. Please notify the highest authorities of a top-level meeting tomorrow afternoon. Please discuss the exact time and place with Pope Alexander. The G.o.ddess of Blessings and I will be there." Elysia looked at the Emperors and announced in a gentle but authoritative voice.
Elliott and Raphael looked at each other and nodded. Then, they faced the G.o.ddess of Light with great respect and appreciation.
"Your words have been said, and it shall be done without flaws, o bringer of light." Elliott represented Raphael to answer with a slight bow.
"What? I did not know about that." Nell complained, but she still wore her usual compa.s.sionate and n.o.ble expression.
"Hm? Don"t you want the humans who worship you to prepare themselves for that inevitable battle? The current Pope, Alexander, has prepared a lot just from the books you wrote with your followers in the distant past, you know that, right?" Elysia responded while stretching out her hand, implementing her magic for everyone, without exception.
A warm golden light enveloped everyone simultaneously, and they soared towards the star-filled night sky.
"Ugh, alright." Nell just complied and followed the plan that her grandG.o.dmaster had made. She had other plans for that, but it didn"t seem necessary.
"We"ll be at Cuttexus City in seconds. You don"t need to do anything but prepare yourself." Elysia delivered a gentle reminder, just in case.
After receiving the confirmations, Elysia put up a unique barrier, and everyone immediately disappeared from the Devil continent. This time, she only needed to do one blink, and they arrived near their destination. It didn"t even take more than a second, as if moving dimensions and arrived at the destination.
Elysia landed on the ground with everyone, then turned around. "This is where we part ways, see you tomorrow afternoon in Aeddoterra City." After saying that, Elysia brought her palm closer to Nell, and the latter landed there.
"Are you going to visit your disciple, o the divine, the G.o.ddess of Light?" Harold immediately asked a question right before the G.o.ddesses left. It was necessary for several apparent reasons.
"Ah, you are Sir Harold. The answer to your question is correct. I know that my precious disciple is in your mansion. Thank you for your treatment and care for my precious disciple." Elysia answered out of courtesy.
"It"s my honor and grace." Harold saluted with a slight bow like the perfect gentleman. He had received the necessary information, so he didn"t detain the G.o.ddesses any longer.
After saying farewell, Elysia used invisible magic on herself and Nell. They went into the city in a certain way because the city seemed to be on emergency alert.
As soon as the G.o.ddesses disappeared into thin air, Elliott turned his head at Harold with an approving nod. Based on the G.o.ddess of Light"s response earlier, he could a.s.sume what would happen tonight.
Two G.o.ddesses would stay at the Reinhard Family"s mansion because Elysia, the G.o.ddess of Light"s disciple, was there.
Elliott glanced over the city for a moment, then returned to Harold. "We need to deploy several special squads to guard your mansion, Harold. Two G.o.ddesses will be staying for one night at your mansion, and we need to make sure there are no disturbances or other unexpected things."
"I have the same thoughts as you, Emperor Elliott. Allow me to set this up." After saying that and receiving a nod from Emperor Elliott, Harold turned around. He gave some instructions to the other experts.
He became a marshall with several responsibilities and authorities. With Emperor Elliott"s permission, he ordered and deployed experts in the investigative forces to guard his mansion for the night. No one should disturb the two heavenly G.o.ddesses.
"Ho-ho, it looks like I"ll stay in your city, Emperor Elliott. Sir Harold, please allow me to stay at your mansion." Raphael stroked his chin with a faint smile. He intended to greet the two G.o.ddesses and Elysia in the morning.
In retrospect, the disciple in question studied at the Deterry Academy of Magic. She was named Elysia Avery, and his son also at the same academy. What a coincidence, but unfortunately, he hadn"t told his son, Raylee, about the G.o.ddess"s disciple.
Harold didn"t have to answer that because Elliott interrupted. "No, you will look impolite then, Emperor Raphael. Better, you return with me to my Imperial Palace. I will treat you well, ho-ho."
"Hmm, it looks like you are right, Emperor Elliott. Then, I will trouble you. Oh, we also need to share this information with other Emperors. Also, about the top-level meeting tomorrow afternoon as requested." Raphael thought for a moment and nodded. Besides, he would meet them tomorrow afternoon. So, he might as well invite his son to come.
