Chapter 575 - Crave For Violence
"Why are we here now?" Elysia sighed as she stared at the electric box in front of her.
Some time ago, a van came to pick her up, but she couldn"t say much. She had no other choice but to go because the big man didn"t want to hear any excuses. The time was pressing, he said.
"Fufu, you"re wearing a professional electrician"s uniform. So, what are you going to do now, Ely?" Elena couldn"t help but chuckle at the memory of what had just happened.
"Sigh... Let"s finish this and get out of here. Consider it my grat.i.tude for being escorted to this luxurious hotel." Elysia put down the toolbox and took some resources from her s.p.a.ce Bag.
"Hmm? You intend to cultivate to recover your EP, Ely?" Elena asked curiously.
"Mm, I feel insecure without having the power to protect myself. Anything can happen, and I don"t want to be a victim of the cruelty of the world." Elysia then closed her eyes and started cultivating using resources to recover her EP.
"Yeah, it"s best that Earth G.o.d is responsible for any trouble that will come our way. If not, we will cause trouble for him." Elena smiled like a villain.
Several tens of minutes pa.s.sed, Elysia opened her eyes again and focused her vision on herself. A status screen popped out shortly after.
"Yay, I managed to recover over one thousand five hundred EP in just a few minutes!" Elysia cheered for her success.
"Congratulations, Ely. So, shall we go to the black market now?" Elena gave a round of applause from within the Soul Realm.
"After I repaired this electric box with magic." Elysia stood up and opened the electric box. She used her sacred eyes to check why it wasn"t working correctly.
After finding the root of the problem, she used her imagination magic to repair some broken components.
Once finished, Elysia accidentally looked at her right wrist, at the turquoise bracelet to be more precise.
She really wanted to know Rhea"s condition right away for some reason. Because of that, she tried once again to send telepathy there.
After three unsuccessful attempts, Elysia couldn"t help but sigh in disappointment.
"Ely, Rhea"s spirit is connected to us, in one of your dantians, if I"m not mistaken?" Elena began to a.s.sume to find common ground for a solution to the current problem.
"Oh, right! Let"s try again to send telepathy through our spirit connection." Elysia slapped her forehead as she just remembered that.
She immediately tried to enter into the spirit connection path with Rhea. Still, she immediately gave up when she could hear the sound of soft breathing. Because of that, she closed the spirit connection, but she looked relieved and happy about it.
"I can hear it! Rhea is there. She was probably asleep right now. Let"s wake her up another chance." Elysia put her hands together and pranced a little.
"Very well, as I would expect from our Patron G.o.ddess. Let"s do that tomorrow morning. Rhea might need some help too. This may be somewhat similar to Nell"s deep slumber." Elena folded her arms and nodded a few times.
"Nell... Everyone is probably really worried about us right now. But, I only have one thousand three hundred EP left. I"ll try to send our news to Nell via spirit connection after selling some items for money." Elysia sighed again as she remembered that.
"You are right. Let"s go, and just leave the toolbox here. Ah, you can also find out the exact position of Sylvia and Vann by using your connection spirit to our little white cat, right?" Elena reminded Elysia.
"Mm." Elysia agreed with that and went out of the room.
Elysia walked through the corridor while having a light conversation with Elena in mind.
"We are probably currently in some of the easternmost cities in Hokkaido Prefecture. But, the closest black market I know of is in Sapporo..." Elysia lamented her fate as she realized it now.
"Aww, please don"t keep sighing, Ely. I"m sure there"s something this city has in store. Maybe, we can find an auction or a resource shop in this city." Elena tried to cheer up Elysia by giving positive ideas.
"You are right, Sister Elena. Let"s try our luck. If it doesn"t work, we can use our time to cultivate to become the real experts here, hehe…" Elysia chuckled lightly.
"That"s my Ely." Elena nodded in agreement.
A room door suddenly opened at that moment, and two girls came out of it. One wore a formal black suit, and the other wore a dark brown suit.
Elysia was stunned to look at the beautiful girl with long brown hair in a dark brown suit. She stared at that girl"s yellow eyes for a moment. However, it only lasted two seconds before she resumed her pace and pa.s.sed them.
"That girl is very beautiful, isn"t she? I didn"t expect a girl who looked like an angel to exist in this world. She may be at the ultimate apex of beauty in this world"s standards." Elysia gave her appreciation only in her mind. She also wanted to know Elena"s opinion.
"Hm, I can"t deny it, but you"re right, Ely. That girl is indeed beautiful, but you are in a different league above her nonetheless. But I can confirm that she has a unique background." Elena agreed with Elysia"s statement. But she didn"t take it seriously.
"Hmm?" The girl in a dark brown suit looked back with some curiosity.
"What"s wrong, milady?" The girl in a formal black suit asked with a hint of astonishment.
"No, it"s nothing. Let"s go. The auction will start soon." The girl in a dark brown suit shook her head. She then put her room"s access card into her purse.
However, just as the two of them walked away, that access card fell to the floor without anyone noticing.
Meanwhile, Elysia stopped her steps because she heard the word auction. She didn"t know what kind of auction was being held, but it was just what Elena had reminded her of just now.
"It"s just like what I said, right? Ely, quickly follows those two girls secretly. You can sell a few items at the auction for a few grands of money~" Elena cheered and encouraged Elysia to change their current plans.
"Uhm, that would be much better than the black market." Elysia is feeling excited. With enough money, she could speed up all her scheduled events to tomorrow.
Just as Elysia would follow the two girls, she accidentally saw a blue card on the floor. She wasn"t sure what card it was, but she a.s.sumed it was something quite important for the two girls.
"Should I return it to the owner? Never mind, I"m just returning it to the owner and I can use the opportunity to ask about the auction in question. With that being said, I don"t have to follow them like a stalker." Elysia rea.s.sured herself and immediately picked up the card. She then quickened her pace to catch up to the two girls.
"Excuse me, I thought this card is yours. You just dropped this." Elysia stretched out her hand with the blue card in hand.
"Hmm?" The girl in a formal black suit turned around and narrowed her eyes to look at the suspicious handyman.
This man was not only wearing a mask, hat, and sungla.s.ses, but his voice was also disguised. Either way, this guy was really suspicious overall and might bring some danger to her milady.
With that thought in mind, she immediately grabbed that man"s wrist and pinned him to the floor.
*Thud*
"Auu..." Elysia was so surprised that her good intentions resulted in a horrible and unexpected return.
"Who are you and what are your goals, suspicious man? Depending on your answer, maybe I won"t make your life any more difficult than this." The girl in a formal black coat locked the suspicious man"s right arm.
But, she was a bit surprised to see that it was like the hand of a girl with very well-groomed white skin. This suspicious man was even wearing an exquisite bracelet?
She immediately removed the suspicious man"s hat, mask, and sungla.s.ses with that realisation in mind.
"..." Tears welled up at the corners of Elysia"s eyes. She felt her right hand go numb from the pain. That girl even dared to take off her disguise!?
"Ely, pay vengeance to this presumptuous girl. She dares to treat you badly when you come with good intentions." Elena encouraged violence.
It was also the last tolerance Elysia could give because she didn"t deserve this kind of treatment.
The girl in the formal black suit was stunned, and so was the girl in the dark brown suit. They did not expect the handyman to turn out to be a girl, one who was very beautiful above all.
They looked at her lovely face once again and were stunned to see her pretty bluish-purple eyes. This girl had long black hair that sparkled with a purplish sheen. At the same time, they became so guilty and sinful to make this beautiful girl cry.
However, an invisible wall suddenly appeared out of nowhere and pushed them backward. The girl in a formal black suit even fell onto her b.u.t.tocks after a mysterious shockwave made her release her lock from that girl"s arm.
"That hurts..." Elysia put her mask and sungla.s.ses back on.. She then picked up her hat from the floor before standing up while holding her aching right arm.
