Chapter 696: The Girls Chit-Chat

"I guess Ely is very tired and needs rest. Meanwhile, the Goddesses don't really need dinner? So, we will do it ourselves? I mean, dinner?" Sylvia looked at the other girls with an expectant gaze.

"Can you cook? I don't remember you capable of cooking at least one edible dish without Ely's help." Yuuki folded her arms as she recalled the past few weeks' events. She felt a little nauseous at the thought of the dreary purple food.

"Hehe, I'm still not that good at it, but that wouldn't be too bad, right? Moreover, we have Ella and Eve here. They can at least cook, too, right? You were a lone wandering fox for hundreds of years, right? You should also have mastered the ability to cook to survive, right?" Sylvia rubbed the back of her head with an awkward chuckle.

"That's right, you're asking the right people. I'm pretty reliable when it comes to cooking." Yuuki puffed out her chest slightly. She felt superior to this devil girl now.

"But, I heard that beastkins often eat raw meat in the wild, like us, the Beast Race. I used to be like that too." Vanessa blinked her eyes with an innocent expression.

"..." Yuuki couldn't answer because it hit the right spot.

"That's not true, is it? Then, I'm afraid you can only make dishes like sushi or raw fish meat with only soy sauce." Sylvia covered her mouth with a slight chuckle.

"I can make other dishes too. You just don't know about it." Yuuki snorted and folded his arms.

"Uuhh, I think we're sweating a lot because of today's events. I want to take a shower..." Evelyn smelled her body odor, and she didn't feel comfortable with it.

"You're right, Eve. Cleanliness is part of faith. We can't present ourselves before our Goddess like this." Ella replied with a gentle smile.

"Hm, I feel the same way. Let's build another tent and make a mini hot spring bath for us to soak. There's a lot I want to tell you guys. Oh, so many interesting things, of course~" Sylvia took out the tent from her Space Bag.

"Huh? Why do we need to soak together in a mini hot spring? That would be cramped and a bit embarrassing..." Yuuki took a step back and hugged himself. She then tried to escape into the tent. "I'll pass."

"Whoops, wait a minute, shy snow fox. Where are you going? Do you want to be presented yourself before Ely and the Goddesses with the smell of battle? That's really rude. You don't have cleansing magic like Ely, do you?" Sylvia grabbed Yuuki's shoulder before this fox girl entered the tent.

"..." Yuuki thought for a moment. She felt that what Sylvia said was reasonable. Therefore, she could only go with the earlier plan.

After another large tent was successfully set up, Vanessa went to Gio to tell him some business. "Meow, meow, meow."

"Hmm." Gio nodded as he didn't mind staying outside for a while.

Vanessa smiled and took out a small sack of snacks from her Space Bag. It was her jumbo-sized snack, and she gave it to Gio for a free-time snack.

"..." Gio glanced at the sack in his hand, then at his senior. However, the girls went straight into the newly erected tent.

He shrugged his shoulders and went near the Sea God, sitting on the sand and looking at the sea.

*Rustle*

Gio unwrapped the snacks as his senior told him to throw a snack into his mouth. It was fish-flavored, and the taste wasn't bad.

He then handed the snacks to Sea God. Sharing was caring.

Oceanid found it amusing. Yet, he shook his head. "No need, you can eat it."

Gio then devoured his snack little by little instead of eating them all simultaneously. His senior said it was the best way to enjoy a snack.

"Huff..." Oceanid heaved a subtle sigh. He just got over his biggest worry and regret, but he still doesn't feel calm.

There were still five super dangerous seabed sealed areas like the previous one. Although the sealed accursed monsters were not as terrible as the previous one, those five places were places that had to be dealt with as soon as possible due to various factors.

Oceanid glanced at the two tents behind him and looked up at the starry night sky above. He stared at the moon for a moment with a profound gaze. It was where the two strongest Accursed Gods were sealed, where their final battle would take place to eliminate the accursed monsters once and for all.

*Crunch* *Rustle*

Gio was leisurely enjoying his snack, and it somewhat spoiled Oceanid's quiet moment. Therefore, Oceanid went to sit on a rock on the coast and sat there cross-legged to meditate. He also needed to recuperate with the help of particular recovery formations.

Meanwhile, the girls had just cleaned themselves and immediately wrapped themselves in towels before entering the hot spring.

"Sprinkle some of this hot spring powder, and everything will be perfect. We'll smell good just by soaking." Sylvia sprinkled a packet of green powder on their makeshift hot spring bath.

"You have several interesting items, Sylvi." Yuuki stared in surprise at the devil girl.

"That, of course. Earth has tons of unique, useful items. You'll have your chance to visit Ely's world next month if you're lucky." Sylvia leaned against the edge of the hot spring. "Aah~ This is life."

"Eh, wait. Is Ely going back to her world again next month? What do you mean by that?" Evelyn asked in confusion.

"Yep, the problems on Earth aren't over yet, and we're planning to go back there next month. Err, when that silly something game will be held." Sylvia opened her eyes slightly in response.

"I see. It's still next month. I'll be around, so I'll be invited to Earth too." Yuuki muttered under her breath.

Ella and Evelyn looked at each other as if they had the same idea as Yuuki.

"Nee, I wanted to share a story about Earth, also my adventures with Ely and Vann. However, something has been bothering me since a while ago. It's related to you, Ella. I didn't get to ask, but now seems like the right opportunity." Sylvia remembered something and looked at Ella with a solemn yet curious expression.

"Your confusion comes from a cause. Please be my guest." Ella replied with a faint smile. She was also curious about what was bothering Sylvia.

"So it's like this. You are a loyal servant of the Goddess of Blessings. Err, you are also her future angel... We can call that you are her disciple too, right?" Sylvia scratched her cheek while trying to compose a proper sentence.

"Mm, that might be true if you look at everything from one side of a third party. However, is that the one that bothers you, Sylvia?" Ella tilted her head slightly. She didn't think there was anything odd about that statement.

"You're right. That's not what I wanted to ask. But, it's like this. You know, the Goddess of Blessings is the holder of blessing magic and holy light, but she also seems to have some connection to the Goddess of Light. The Goddess of Nature is her big sister, but what about Ely's master? It's like she is very obedient to the Goddess of Light. Is it possible, divine light and holy light... They are clearly related, too, right? The master and disciple of the past, perhaps?" Sylvia tapped her chin in wonder.

The girls thought about Sylvia's statement for a moment, but Ella was confused now. If the Goddess of Light was the Goddess of Blessings' master, she would serve two Goddesses? It became three if the Goddess of Nature was included in the consideration.

"And one more thing. The Goddess of Light, the Goddess of Nature, and the Goddess of Blessings seem to have a special relationship with Ely. Ely is a Goddess Tamer too... Sea God will probably become docile, too, just like what happened to Devil God. Oh no, we must not forget the Goddess of Life. Can you see everything is connected and circling around Ely?" Sylvia raised her finger for attention.

"That's just your opinion, right?" Ella scratched her head in confusion.

"That doesn't matter. I'm not trying to instigate you for anything. You're still the faithful devotee of the Goddess of Blessings. What I'm trying to say is, Ely is a Goddess candidate. Her real power is the one that we can't measure. Also, this is just my opinion, but our group is also circling around Ely. We would probably go to our own separate paths if it weren't for Ely and her master. Am I right?" Sylvia shook her head.

"So, what are you trying to say, Sylvi. You're confusing us all." Yuuki scratched his head in confusion.

"You are a devil, but you want to worship my masters? I've known your intentions for a long time, actually." Vanessa smiled faintly and closed her eyes.

"Hm, that's fine, right? We're in the same boat, but what about the others? Our divine battlesuits in the form of Elly and her master investing in us? Do you know what I mean? It's like a test. I want you to think about it and find the answer. Ahem, anyway, this is about Ely and her master. I used to think they were mother and daughter or sister because of their closeness." Sylvia leaned back against the edge of the hot spring.

"And as for you, Ella. You will indirectly be dealing with two other Goddesses besides the Goddess you worship. And Ely too. You need to consult your Goddess." Sylvia stated the obvious with a strange glint in her eyes. She would discover more secrets about Elysia and everyone soon.

"That would be fine. We have all the time to get to know them better. Rather than that, I wonder what we will do once the accursed monsters are wiped out from this world, and the affairs on Earth are over?

Is what the Goddess of Light said really going to happen? Will we explore the vast universe from world to world to uncover the divine secrets of the universe? Our core group is apparent, but what about the others?" Vanessa glanced up questioningly.

The issue left a topic that became a problem in the girls' minds, especially Ella and Eve. They felt that Ely would go far if things were like this. The problem they had was they wanted to come too.

Sylvia covered her mouth to cover her sly grin. She left the big problem for Ella and Evelyn to sort out. It didn't matter what they were going to do, but she wanted them to determine their own path and future soon before it was all too late.

After that, Sylvia shared some stories about Earth to change the topic of conversation. The girls' chit-chat continued as they went to cook dinner too.
