"Rarr Rawr." Gio felt proud to get gazes of appreciation from new people.

"Yes, it's a transformation. One of Gio's innate abilities." Nell explained while taking her magic carpet out of her Private Realm. "Hm, although everyone will fit, it will still feel cramped for a long journey. I'm sure you want air travel with a little more spacious transportation, right?"

"Let's give you a little extension, handy magic carpet~" Elysia took out some sewing tools and materials.

Then, she used her imagination magic to make her job easier when sewing an extension onto the backside of Nell's magic carpet.

"Done, can you sustain your tail to be in a flat position while flying, handy magic carpet?" Elysia rubbed her hands with a smile as she looked at the result of her handiwork.

"?" The magic carpet twisted its body to check its new temporary extension. It simply did what Elysia asked because it was an easy thing.

Surprisingly, the magic carpet was able to treat its new body part as if the extension was the genuine part.

"Hmm, it's indeed an extension that makes my magic carpet one meter longer. However, I believe it won't last long. Well, but that's fine. Let's go up to my magic carpet. I'll show you a whole new world." Nell floated up to her magic carpet and invited everyone to sit down.

Although, it was still her magic that got everyone to step onto her magic carpet.

Evelyn and Ella became very excited. Sylvia and Yuuki were no different either. They were eagerly anticipating what would await them in the far-eastern region of the world.

"Let's go!" Nell announced.

"Yay!" Elysia and the others cheered in unison.

*swoosh*

The magic carpet immediately shot toward the east-southeast as directed by its master.

Ella and Evelyn looked back. They were getting further and further away from the holy city. They clasped her hands in prayer to wish good fortune and luck to their family and their journey.

"Uwwooo! It's much better than being carried by magic. It's as if we're riding something rather than being carried by the wind without being able to move freely. Good magic carpet, good magic carpet." Sylvia stroked the golden white carpet in admiration.

"Hum-hum~" Nell was pleased that her divine handiwork was being praised. She sat relaxed on her big sister's lap while enjoying the view.

The trip to the Aquatic Ocean was far from the expected time because Nell did not remember the exact point of their destination. Even after the sunset, they were still hovering aimlessly above the vast ocean, lost with nowhere to go.

"Ocean, oo..." Sylvia lay on her stomach languidly. She knew they were lost above the dark ocean.

"Uhm, we're not really lost, are we? I brought a compass." Yuuki scratched her head and took out a compass. Unfortunately, it just twirled as if confused as to which was north.

"It's no use. The compass won't help us. It's getting so cloudy today... We're going to fly above the clouds to determine the direction with the moon's position." Nell looked up and became a little worried. She just patted her magic carpet and gave an order.

"Are we going to get caught in a violent storm over the boundless ocean? Uuu, I suggested it, and it turned out to be the right decision. We should stay on the beach for a while and determine our exact destination..." Sylvia peered down. She saw nothing but the darkness of the ocean in the dark night. But, the scene immediately turned into a sea of cloudy clouds. "Ocean of black clouds?"

"Fwuaah... We are now above the clouds. However, it looks like a storm is coming. The Goddess of Blessings, let's return to the mainland in the west. I have a feeling that the Aquatic Ocean can't be found today considering the weather, and it's already getting dark." Elena was feeling sleepy. She suggested, but it sounded like a command instead.

"Ugh, fine, let's go back. We'll be looking for Aquatic Ocean tomorrow." Nell sighed in exasperation. Thus, she simply asked her magic carpet to fly west at full speed before the storm came.

"Tomorrow? Do you mean tomorrow afternoon, o the Goddess of Blessings? We shall take a moment of our time to rest on a beach on an uninhabited island, shall we? Right, right?" Sylvia instantly became cheerful to convey her demand with a pleading look.

"That..." Nell was taken back to the girl who suddenly approached.

On the other hand, Sylvia thought it was a no. She instantly returned to being passive and unmotivated. After all, it was exhausting after spending more than ten hours flying through the air.

"Hum, that's not a bad idea. Let's find an uninhabited island to stop for a while. We'll determine our direction tomorrow for a definite direction after relaxing on the beach." Elena put her hand to her chin and nodded. She glanced at the girls, especially Elysia, with a glint in her eyes.

"Wh-what?" Elysia seemed to know what was going through Elena's mind. She crossed her arms over her chest and backed away slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Hehe, then, that's decided! The Goddess of Light, you do understand me. I think we have some compatibility. Let's head back to the nearest uninhabited island for the night! Go, go, magic carpet, go!" Sylvia raised her hands high and cheered like a gleeful child.

Nell just smiled faintly and shook her head. Nevertheless, she accepted the suggestion and started looking for the nearest uninhabited island.

It was about thirty-five kilometers east of the mainland of the Human Continent. A remote island no more than the size of three football fields became Nell's choice to stop by.

Apart from trees, shrubs, and rocks, there was a twenty-meter steep rock mountain right in the island's center.

"It's still quite dark. Even the Goddess of Light has used her firefly-like magic." Yuuki looked around to make sure there weren't any strange or unexpected presences around. Her fox ears were also constantly moving to catch any extraneous sound waves.

Hearing that, the corner of Nell's lips twitched as if remembering something she didn't want to hear. It seemed to ring in her mind over and over again.

Therefore, she looked at Elena, but the latter only gave an innocent look.

"I'd be embarrassed if you looked at me with that intense gaze, little one. I use these faux fireflies only for disguised lighting. I know that we're still invisible, but did you know that girls are afraid of the dark? It may be fine for us, but it may be different for others. Right?" Elena put her hand on Elysia's arm to ask for confirmation of what she just said.

"Uhm, master... For some reason, I feel a little horrified by this uninhabited island." Elysia rubbed the back of her neck. For some unknown cause, she suddenly got goosebumps.

"Ah, ah, wh-what might happen, Ely. Please don't scare me... Did that scary thingy come from that mountain cliff?" Evelyn immediately approached Elysia and pinched a tiny part of her best friend's dress.

She wanted to close her eyes, but that would be even more terrifying. Just looking to the right and left already required extra courage.

The girl, afraid of the dark and lightning, just chose to look ahead while making sure she was near her best friend and the Goddesses.

"Hehe, this place is just an ordinary uninhabited island. There can't be any ghosts or evil spirits here, right? You see the beach over there and the sound of the sea rushing over there? Yeah, we'll have a relaxing time at the beach tomorrow. I've brought a swimsuit too. My preparations are perfect." Sylvia put her hands together with a sparkle in her eyes. She couldn't wait for tomorrow.

"G-g-ghost!?" Evelyn and Ella stuttered to remember the unexpected spooky thing. Evelyn gripped Elysa's dress tighter, and Ella immediately drew closer to her Divine Goddess.

Nell just shrugged her shoulders, but it was entirely different for Rhea.

Rhea considered what Elysia said was something that required extra consideration on first priority. She raised an eyebrow because she couldn't sense any evil energy or anything that might trigger any kind of horrifying feeling. It was just an ordinary uninhabited island.

Even though her magic vision and divine sense couldn't find anything meaningful, she still took seriously the mastermind that caused Elysia to get goosebumps and a little horrified.

"You can feel it too, Ely. It's so faint, but your sense is sharp as always." Elena frowned and stopped in her tracks. She also tugged on Elysia's arm. "Everyone, please gather closer. I'll put up an extra barrier for us. Something's not right with this uninhabited island."

As soon as that was said, the girls turned a little pale and immediately came closer without a second thought. Rhea and Nell instantly became solemn to treat the current matter more thoughtfully.

The little beasts became a little restless, but they didn't know why. Their instincts seemed to be warning something even though obscurity was the only thing that came to their mind.

Elena put up some additional layered barriers. They were now covered in perfect invisibly, with the faux fireflies only lighting up a limited area within the barrier.

"What is wrong with this island, o the Goddess of Light? I cannot sense anything strange." Sylvia tried to confirm by looking at the surrounding. However, she got no results.

"..." Yuuki fell into silence without a word. The furs on her seven tails stood up for no reason.

"Can you elaborate on that? I'm not sure I understand what might be causing goosebumps to both of you, the Goddess of Light, Elysia? If something gives you both a horrifying feeling, then no one can just ignore it. Do we need to thoroughly examine this uninhabited island, even underground?" Nell folded her arms with some thoughts in mind.
