Chapter 316: Clear Up Ella\'s Confusion
The morning came to welcome the day with a peaceful and cool nuance. Elysia woke up and immediately turned off the alarm. Then, she freed herself from Evelyn and propelled himself to sit down.
What happened last night was quite absurd and bizarre. She didn\'t even know the ghost\'s intentions and goals by coming to this room.
After organizing her thoughts, she woke up her friends by shaking their bodies. "Eve, Ella, morning is here. Let\'s get ready for the academy right away. We\'ve got quite a distance, and we need to leave early."
Ella and Evelyn woke up without taking long. However, the latter had a bit of a struggle to leave the comfortable bed.
The three girls exchanged good morning greetings, then they immediately got ready for the academy.
\'Fuah, I\'m feeling a little sleepy.\' Elysia yawned as soon as she changed into her academy uniform. She slightly moisturized her face with warm water and looked at her reflection in the mirror. There was no ghost or the like.
\'Uhh. Sister Elena might be pleased to hear about what happened last night. It was like a movie, a ghost that suddenly appeared in search of sacrifice. Phew... Luckily, I brought Evelyn back. Otherwise, no one knows what that ghost will do to Evelyn.\' Elysia smiled faintly and shook her head. After drying her hands, she walked out of the bathroom.
Ella and Evelyn were all neat and beautiful, ready to go. They were currently waiting for Elysia. On that occasion, Evelyn told Ella about the eerie event last night with enthusiasm.
"Oh my, I got a little chill. Let\'s tell it to our family, and also Emperor Arthur. We don\'t know what happened, but this room and the surrounding area needs to be cleansed from evil spirits or ghosts." Ella covered her mouth with a hint of shock.
"En. When Ely and I were outside this room... You were still sleeping and didn\'t feel any disturbance?" Evelyn continued with a hint of curiosity.
"I don\'t feel any disturbance. I\'m still fast asleep. Auu, this room is probably haunted." Ella covered her face with both hands, but she peeked between her fingers.
She saw a girl with long black hair just came out of the bathroom. Fortunately, the girl was not a ghost but her friend.
"I have other assumptions, but those are none of our business either. We just need to report last night\'s event to the adults. I\'m sure Emperor Arthur knows something and will take care of it." Elysia walked over and sat beside her friends.
"Meow." Vanessa jumped into her master\'s lap and curled up for warmth.
Hearing that, Ella and Evelyn just nodded in agreement. When the two of them decided to go out of the room, Elysia suddenly spoke up. "Ah, Ella, would you like to speak to my master and the Goddess of Blessings before leaving? I\'m afraid it will be difficult if that is done later."
Ella\'s eyes gleamed with a charm of passion. A beaming smile and bright expression adorned her face in that instant. She only nodded a few times in response.
Seeing that, Elysia immediately contacted Nell through their spirit connection. It had been announced beforehand, and Nell gave the green light easily.
After that, Elysia roused Elena up so the latter would take a moment to brighten Ella a little. Elena also gave her approval without much delay.
It didn\'t take more than two minutes. Nell sent a telepathic message via their spirit connection. \'Elysia, I\'m outside your room. Please revoke your barrier for me to enter.\'
\'Thanks for coming, Nell. You\'re so quick to arrive.\' Elysia did as requested with appreciation.
\'It doesn\'t matter. The distance between the Holy Cathedral and this Imperial Palace is not far.\' Nell used her magic and transformed herself into particles of light. She entered the room through the air vent.
Ella felt that there was a holy presence nearby. She looked at the window and saw a figure she still remembered so well in her memory.
The Goddess, who looked like an angelic fairy with a pair of white wings, came with elegance. Golden light shone on the room for a moment before it dimmed at the will of the divine.
The Goddess of Blessings hovered and landed on the table right in front of Elysia. She turned right and left as if looking for someone.
Ella immediately knelt down and clasped her hands in prayer. "O my Goddess, please forgive this little priest. Doubt and uncertainty had shaken my faith in your divinity. With all honor and grace, please enlighten this lost little priest."
"Mm, everything comes because of a cause, and it\'s followed by an effect. Holy Maiden Gabriella, tell me about what\'s bothering you." Nell was no longer trying to find Elena. She put on a compassionate expression to Ella.
"Thank you for your blessings and graces, the Goddess of Blessings. I am reminded of the name you used to refer to the Goddess of Light. May you enlighten this lost priest, is the Goddess of Light your master?" Ella looked down and put her clasped hands to her forehead.
"..." Nell was at a loss of words instantly. She knew this might happen because she blurted out yesterday.
Elysia and Evelyn just watched from the side, waiting for the sequel. While Elena emerged out of thin air and sat next to Elysia with a somewhat curious expression.
Nell smirked to herself, but it wasn\'t etched on her face. "Raise your head, Holy Maiden Gabriella. The Goddess of Light and I share some history of good faith. I understand your confusion, but your faith is not shaken by anything. You are just confused, and that\'s all."
Ella immediately raised her head to witness her Goddess\'s compassionate smile. She interpreted the implicit statement of the answer she received. "This little priest understands. Please forgive me for questioning irrelevant things. You are the Goddess of Human Race, the divinity that protects and guides mankind in prosperity. All praise and glory come to you."
"Hum, Holy Maiden Gabriella, are you aware of your family\'s rules that apply to the girl with the title Holy Princess or Holy Maiden?" Nell gave a subtle nod.
"This little priest is fully conscious and ready. I am your future angel. My existence is to serve the holiness of your divine being, o the Goddess of Blessings." Ella said that with eyes sparkling with reverence.
For some inexplicable reason, Nell felt lost for an instant upon hearing the declaration from Ella. Even so, she didn\'t show it to her face.
"However, please remember one thing, Holy Maiden Gabriella." Nell held up her index finger as she emphasized her words. "There are two Goddesses that you need to hold in high esteem. They are the Goddess of Light and the Goddess of Life."
"This little priest understands and obeys. Thank you for clearing up the confusion in this little priest\'s mind." Ella paid her obeisance without the slightest bit of hesitation.
\'Hm, why would you say that to your angel, little one? I\'m not everyone\'s Goddess, you know? Are you expecting anything from me, hmm?\' Elena squinted her eyes with a hint of suspicion.
Nell became nervous at once when that melodious voice rang in her mind. \'I- I don\'t mean anything else, really! I just wanted to share the burden. I don\'t really want to raise anyone to be my angel anymore. Not anymore...\'
\'Hmm? Don\'t you have many angels at your beck and call? Ella once said that she is the 9th generation angel in her family.\' Elena blinked repeatedly. She was confused by the change in Nell\'s tone that had become prone to grief?
\'Yeah, I used to have two hundred angels. Besides myself, only one survived that devastating war. Celestine is my angel who stood with me to the very end. The Celestine Family is the family of her descendants. Eight girls in the last eight thousand years since I came to my senses. So it\'s already the ninth girl, huh...\' Nell sighed inwardly with a flash of pain.
\'I am so sorry for your loss.\' Elena felt an aura of loneliness slowly engulfing Nell. She sympathized with this little Goddess.
\'I\'m fine, grandgodmaster. Maybe, this girl is my last angel. However, I want this girl to see you and my sister as her Goddess too.\' Nell flew towards Elena and landed on the latter\'s shoulder.
Ella and Evelyn were shocked when they realized that the Goddess of Light was already there.
\'You feel responsible for the girl from the Celestine Family, hmm? After all, why do all the girls from that family need to be your angels, little one? It even goes as far as dedicating their body and soul to you. You sound like kind of evil.\' Elena no longer took issue with the previous topic. She returned to the main problem that had puzzled herself and Elysia since yesterday.
\'For that matter, it\'s a bit long story. I will share the source of the problem.\' Nell didn\'t mind that, but they weren\'t at the right time.
Elena only fell silent afterward to signify her approval. She and Elysia could understand many things from the implication of Nell\'s words.
Then, Ella and Evelyn properly paid their obeisances to the Goddesses. Elena and Nell only responded generously.
Ella already got the answer she was looking for, so she only had a pleasant talk with the Goddesses.
"Oh dear, aren\'t you going to the academy? It\'s already over six o\'clock." Elena glanced at the clock and reminded the two chirping girls.
"Oh, this is bad! We need to get going. We also need to tell the adults about last night\'s event." Elysia pretended to panic. They needed to leave immediately, but her friends seemed to have lost track of time.
Because of that, Ella and Evelyn also panicked. After Elysia picked Vanessa up, they immediately left the room. Meanwhile, the two Goddesses just followed in invisible magic.
