"Yay!" Sylvia spun around excitedly because she was so satisfied with her design that Elysia had redrawn. Yet, something was bugging her, and it came uninvited. She couldn't help but ask since the current situation was appropriate. "Nee, Ely, I don't mean to be rude, but let me ask you this."
"Is something bothering you, Sylvi? You can ask any time." Elysia replied casually, but she was still focused on drawing Yuuki's design.
"You are the Goddess of Light's precious disciple, and you possess a hidden power that is not inferior to an Emperor-level... Or, you are a hidden Empress? But, I can only detect you as an Apprentice. Ahem! Anyway, why did you decide to enter that magic academy and hang out with the young humans? Do you have any particular reason for doing that?" Sylvia rested her arms on the back of the sofa as she asked curiously.
Elysia suddenly stopped drawing. Sylvia's question made her think twice about her decision at that moment.
"E-eh? Ely has Emperor-level strength? A hidden Empress? However, Ely is a sixteen year old girl." Evelyn covered her mouth in surprise.
"Um, that's true. You never would have thought that my father, the Devil Emperor, had been brought to his knees before Ely with just a single strike. What I meant really was a simple punch." Sylvia nodded repeatedly.
"Wow, that's an overkill..." Lynn was taken aback. So, this apparently weak human girl was a hidden Empress.
Even so, Sylvia's initial question caught the attention of the girls, especially Ella and Evelyn. They also wanted to know what happened on Elysia's side despite all that incredible background.
"..." Elysia smiled as she remembered the reason at that time. She just twirled the pencil in her hand as the girls waited for her answer.
Elysia then leaned back and answered. "I'm not that strong, Sylvi. I don't know why you're so eager to talk about your father's defeat, but it was just a cunning trick that turned out to be doing him a lot of damage. For your question... I don't have any particular reason, though? At the time, we were new here, and we needed information about our new place. So, I was sent to go to a place where the knowledge center was."
"O-oh, I see... Then, do you still have any intention of going to the academy in the future?" Sylvia continued her question because she could sense that Elysia had no reason to remain in the magic academy.
"Hmm, why not? But, it seems the situation has gotten a bit difficult since the affinity test back then, and my identity seems to have spread among the higher-ups." Elysia put her hand to her chin as she became hesitant. Elena just reminded her of these facts.
"Ah, why do you need to bother thinking about it now, Ely? Actually, maybe next month the academy will be closed until the war is over. All forces will participate after all..." Ella lowered her head somewhat glumly.
"..." Elysia fell silent. She could only heave a subtle sigh.
'What Ella said is true, Ely. Why worry about trivial things now when we can take care of them later. But, if all parties participate, then I'm sure you want to make sure the casualties are as small as possible, right?' Elena folded her arms and nodded in agreement.
'Mm, I hope so. I know no one is happy to welcome a great war. But, the one we will face is a war to end all wars...' Elysia understood very well the gravity of the situation that was about to occur.
'Well then, we can expect more of the trap tools and formations Rhea and Nell are working on right now.' Elena tried to peek at what Rhea and Nell were doing in that room, but a layered barrier obstructed her view.
'Mm...' Elysia just nodded. She gave Ella and Evelyn a reassuring smile. With that, the case was simply closed.
"Mhm..." Yuuki fiddled her fingers while glancing at Elysia, her design, and Sylvia. She felt hanging in the middle to see her design halfway finished, but it was interrupted by this devil girl.
Noticing Yuuki's anxious gaze, Elysia smiled smugly and continued to draw. After that, she also helped redraw the other designs.
"Hum, I look dashing in this suit of armor, don't you think so too, Leila?" Theo nodded in satisfaction to see the design of his new armor.
He was forced to use his tiger-man form to help his wife and Vanessa draw the initial sketch according to their request. But, he failed to create a decent design even for himself.
"Hehe, that's of course." Leila covered her mouth in a light chuckle. She only asked for something as simple as a necklace. So, she didn't bother Elysia too much with the redesign.
Meanwhile, Vanessa saw that her image had turned into something that stunned her.
On the paper, there was a picture of a gallant tiger clad in charming armor. But, besides the tiger, there was a beautiful cat beastkin clad in a fancy dress.
The confused Vanessa then asked her master. "Master, who is this cat girl?"
"Hmm, let's see..." Elysia glanced at Vanessa's paper. She smiled helplessly. It was Elena who asked her to make a design for Vanessa but in the beastkin version. "That's the possible form of you when your transformation technique leveled up, Vann. Do you like it?"
"O-oh~ I like it very much! So, will I look like this in the future when I've advanced to Saint rank?" Vanessa was about to embrace her design, but she remembered that it would ruin the paper. So, she just stroked her cheek against it instead.
"Okay, now please write down the special effects you expect from the design. Write them on a different note, okay? Not on the design paper." Elysia put her hands together, and everyone immediately did as she asked.
It wasn't long before all the papers were reassembled and returned to Elysia. A few minutes later, the door opened. Rhea and Nell came out of the room with a long silver-gold wand.
"Ely, can you help me for a moment? I've already made one test item." Rhea showed the two-meter wand with a smile.
"Ah, sure, with pleasure." Elysia immediately got up from her seat with the papers in her arms.
"May I know what it is?" Rhea pointed at the papers.
"These are the magic item designs I talked to you about before." Elysia shows one of the designs she drew.
"Woah, you're good at drawing, Ely." Nell threw in a compliment for small talk.
"Hehe thank you." Elysia then entered the room with Rhea and Nell. After that, the door closed, and a layered barrier sealed the room.
"Now, what should we do while we wait?" Sylvia asked the others.
Inside the room, Rhea gave the silver-gold wand to Elysia. "Here, this is the eleventh test item that doesn't have a name yet. Can you help me to perfect the effect of this magic wand, Master Elysia?"
"Sure, I will do my best to the best of my ability. So what should I do?" Elysia put all her design papers into her Space Bag to receive the long magic wand.
"Hm, I created this magic wand to record any magic or law. Can you try the same technique as when you were purifying or eliminating curse energy? Please hold this crystal and you can start your technique when it glows white. You can stop when the crystal turns red." Rhea gave her instructions by directing Elysia step by step.
"Mm, leave it to me!" Elysia nodded and held the magic wand with both hands.
"Ehm, is that okay? I mean, Elena isn't here to help you to use that technique to perfection." Nell asked somewhat hesitantly. She hadn't seen Elena since morning.
"I'll be fine because my master will help me if something unexpected happens." Elysia tried to reassure with confidence in her eyes.
Therefore, Rhea and Nell did not argue anything. They just stood and waited for Elysia to rewrite the magic wand's laws to perfection.
'Alright, let's do it like a simulation.' Elysia muttered in her mind in a playful tone.
'Fufu, yes. Just like the simulation.' Elena chuckled and started helping Elysia from within the Soul Realm.
The two of them tried to use the same technique when they tried to dispel curse energy into nothingness. The crystal embedded in the magic wand initially glowed white, then gradually changed color seven times until it turned bright red.
After that, Elysia and Elena stopped their technique and allowed the magic wand's crystal color to dim.
"Is this enough?" Elysia returned the magic wand to Rhea.
"Mm, thanks for the help, Master Elysia. We just need to test this item and it could become a cutting-edge weapon that will help us eradicate the accursed creatures from this world." Rhea stroked the magic wand as if it was the most valuable item of this era.
"It's probably a bit late for me to ask this. But, what was the purpose of the Ruvoid Race invading this world? I mean, was there a specific reason that drove all of their actions? Everything I know, they cause destruction, bring curses, are dangerous, understand, and see us as food? I'm not so sure of their background. They are more vile than the worst?" Elysia put her hand on her upper chest. This question was quite sensitive to ask, but she thought now was the right moment for it.
Rhea blinked her eyes a few times with an innocent look.. She and Nell looked at each other before she answered. "Ah, is it possible that we haven't told you about it yet?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Yay!" Sylvia spun around excitedly because she was so satisfied with her design that Elysia had redrawn. Yet, something was bugging her, and it came uninvited. She couldn't help but ask since the current situation was appropriate. "Nee, Ely, I don't mean to be rude, but let me ask you this."
"Is something bothering you, Sylvi? You can ask any time." Elysia replied casually, but she was still focused on drawing Yuuki's design.
"You are the Goddess of Light's precious disciple, and you possess a hidden power that is not inferior to an Emperor-level... Or, you are a hidden Empress? But, I can only detect you as an Apprentice. Ahem! Anyway, why did you decide to enter that magic academy and hang out with the young humans? Do you have any particular reason for doing that?" Sylvia rested her arms on the back of the sofa as she asked curiously.
Elysia suddenly stopped drawing. Sylvia's question made her think twice about her decision at that moment.
"E-eh? Ely has Emperor-level strength? A hidden Empress? However, Ely is a sixteen year old girl." Evelyn covered her mouth in surprise.
"Um, that's true. You never would have thought that my father, the Devil Emperor, had been brought to his knees before Ely with just a single strike. What I meant really was a simple punch." Sylvia nodded repeatedly.
"Wow, that's an overkill..." Lynn was taken aback. So, this apparently weak human girl was a hidden Empress.

"Hmm, why not? But, it seems the situation has gotten a bit difficult since the affinity test back then, and my identity seems to have spread among the higher-ups." Elysia put her hand to her chin as she became hesitant. Elena just reminded her of these facts.
"Ah, why do you need to bother thinking about it now, Ely? Actually, maybe next month the academy will be closed until the war is over. All forces will participate after all..." Ella lowered her head somewhat glumly.
