Chapter 718: Pleasant Chat

Elysia let out a subtle sigh when she saw Evelyn happily exchanging ideas with Vanessa, Yuuki, and Sylvia. It was as if Evelyn felt already part of the group after receiving Elysia's confession.

"Isn't that a good thing? It doesn't matter whether you are weak or strong. The most important thing is that we can be of use to the master and lighten some of the burdens on her shoulders. There is a limit to what one person can do. And that's why the Goddess of Light made Master Elysia her precious disciple." Vanessa closed her eyes at his wise advice.

"Mm, I'm still weak and can't be of much help, but it won't stay for long. For now onwards, please take care of me, senior sisters!" Evelyn was happy and gave her senior sisters a slight bow of respect.

"Don't be shy to ask for help."

"You're not weak, and please don't ever think you're a burden. You are amazing."

"Your feelings and loyalty matter"

"Murder is okay."

The girls encouraged Evelyn with a few sentences of kindness, but the last one was a bit suspicious and sounded so wrong.

"Wait, who said that last thing? What does that mean?" Yuuki pursed her lips and looked at the devil girl suspiciously.

"What? Killing enemies is okay under certain circumstances. So, don't hesitate. Hey, we've killed so many monsters, right? Why are you all looking at me with such scornful eyes? It's not a sin to eliminate enemies to protect our loved ones." Sylvia pouted and munched her salad.

"Well, you're not done saying that yet. It could have a double meaning." Yuuki put her hand to her forehead while shaking her head.

"..." Ella only grasped her hand with a faint smile. She watched the girls have a pleasant chat as if they were old friends. For some reason, she felt that she was a bit lonely.

Elysia took a plate of meat and gave it to the little tortoise. She noticed Ella's gaze and asked with concern. "Is there something bothering you, Ella? You seem to be thinking about a problem."

"Ah, is all that clearly visible on my face, Ely? My apologies, It's just nice to see Eve and the others having a nice conversation." Ella gasped a bit in surprise. She then responded in a meek tone.

"Why not join them? They say they need to hold an urgent meeting between followers." Elysia folded her hands on the table with a weak smile as she looked at the girls on the other side of the table.

"They are now your and your Goddess master faithful followers, Ely. I am the Goddess of Blessings' servant." Ella shook her head.

"Please don't say things like that, Ella. It's like you're isolating yourself. There's so much more you don't know yet." Elysia wanted to continue her speech, but she chose not to persuade Ella with many words.

She didn't want to reveal many secrets before Nell told Ella directly. She had no idea how Ella would feel when it came to the mystery of the strange bond between herself and the Goddess of Blessings.

"It seems you are right, Ely. I am still a young angel who has so much to learn. However, please let me be here to accompany you." Ella replied with a tender smile.

Sometime later, an attractive and dignified female elf visited the Heavenly Tree. She wanted to share her story regarding a victory at the eastern border to Hea.

However, she suddenly hit a wall of air and went past something invisible. She was about to check what was happening, but a shocking scene somehow suddenly appeared before her.

A group of bold elves had an outdoor party near the sacred tree illegally and clandestinely!?

Before the elf exploded in anger, Lifa raised her hand to give a gesture to come closer. "You have finally come here, Elven Empress Ashera Nirvalen. Come and join us."

Ashera gasped in surprise when she realized she had mistaken them. Upon closer inspection, this group was not the bold elves but the divine group!

*Gulp*

Ashera gulped her saliva with a hint of nervousness. Luckily, she hasn't said anything in spite of her irritation. She could hear Hea's laughter from the top of the tree. Who knows what that bubble of joy was doing up there. So, everything was fine.

"Ahem, it's a coincidence to meet you here. If you had told me about your previous visit, I would have held a banquet in the palace for you." Ashera cleared her throat and walked over gracefully. She didn't want to give a bad impression under any circumstances.

"We don't want our presence to be publicized like that. However, we will trouble you on our current visit. We will stay overnight here and depart tomorrow morning for the Beastkin Continent." Lifa shook her head and pointed her hand at an empty bench.

"Then, I shall provide the best service during your visit. Speaking of which, thank you for your help in the battle on the eastern border earlier. We were greatly helped." Ashera just sat down and expressed her appreciation. However, she accidentally noticed a fairy in a fancy robe on the table.

"A fairy? Fairy Empress Yralissa Quifiel, what are you doing here in the sacred land of the elves?" Ashera frowned.

"We invited her here. You wouldn't mind, would you?" Lifa made a steeple of her fingers. Everyone involved was here, and she could now bring up the previous matter.

"Hmph, your prejudice against fairies could indirectly offend the Goddess of Blessings. Please be careful with your harsh mouth, immoral elf." Larissa folded her arms with a smirk on her face.

"..." Ashera opened her mouth to reply to the taunt, but she swallowed back her words. She didn't want to offend a Goddess indirectly.

"Heehee~" Yralissa felt triumphant because she managed to make this Elven Empress speechless.

However, Ashera didn't take it for granted. She looks left and right for an ally or subject who can support her in an argument. At that moment, she noticed the turquoise-haired Goddess had a pair of elf-like ears.

"Hmm-mm, you also need to be careful with your smug words, little fairy. You can also offend a Goddess on each of your taunts to the elves." Ashera countered.

Yralissa gasped and checked into the surrounding Goddesses. She did find someone with elf-like ears, but she wasn't quite sure whether this Goddess was an elf or not.

"Let's end your childish debate for another time. We have a thing for you to know. Hea, Celes, come here." Lifa raised her palm upwards. The leaves and the wind immediately sent Hea and Celes down from the tree.

"Wow, what was that? It's like a fun whirlwind!" Celes laughed happily.

"Hehe, you are childish, Ashera. Celes, mama is calling for us. Let's get down from this whirlwind." Hea jumped down from the whirlwind and went to her mama's palm. Celes followed right after.

Lifa then brought the meeting into a serious discussion regarding elves and fairies towards divine help. Hea and Celes had a vital role in reporting the emergency to the divine group.

After that, their conversation turned into more complex matters and discussed various crucial issues regarding the future between elves and fairies.

An hour passed unnoticed, and the little party ended when the dishes ran out.

"Uhm, it's really nice if we spend time together. However, today was quite a long day, and... Uhm, we still smell like seawater from the fight in the middle of the ocean this morning. I want to soak in a hot spring." Yuuki sniffed at her body, and she didn't like the smell of salt on her body.

"Yeah, only Ely and the Goddess are still fresh and fragrant. I feel a little jealous because they can always look clean, fragrant, and beautiful all day without worrying about anything." Sylvia grabbed Elysia's hand and sniffed the fragrance from it. "Yep, a mysterious and pleasant floral scent. I can enjoy this all the time without getting bored."

"I'm sweating too, you know? I want to take a dip in a hot water bath too." Elysia retracted her hand with a bit of embarrassment.

"Then let's tidy this up and go to a hot spring together." Vanessa came up with a proposal, and the girls agreed with it.

"Ah, hot spring bath? We have a private hot spring in the palace. Only Ashera and I are allowed to enter that special place. Let's go there. Tonight is a bit chilly, and soaking with a glass of milk is really fun. Celes, let's go. there." Hea came up with a brilliant idea. She took Celes out with Elysia and the girls.

"O, okay. You're too excited, Hea." Celes smiled helplessly, but she didn't mind it in the slightest.

"They said that we can form a nice bond because of food and skinship. We just had a meal together, then let's have some skinship on hot spring!" Hea spoke like a wise sage.

Tidying up the little party's equipment only took less than a minute because the Space Bag was handy.

"All races are in danger of extinction if we cannot exterminate those accursed creatures as soon as possible. The tragedy of a hundred thousand years ago must not be repeated in history. Therefore, we want all of you to work together, not against each other, especially for ridiculous reasons. The leaders of all races will gather at a grand meeting next week to further discuss our actions regarding the world's threats. Alright, let's end this conversation for another chance." Elena ended the conversation and stood up from her seat.

Elysia and the girls would go to a hot spring, and she definitely didn't want to miss that opportunity.
