Chapter 372: Cute Baby
"Well, that\'s fine. Feel free to ask me. So, you only lack magic energy, and not Life Energy, Rhea? Let me help you. Here, here..." Elysia reached out her hands and hugged the cute baby.
"En." Rhea just nodded and enjoyed herself being enveloped in the warmth of a hug. She inhaled Elysia\'s distinctive body scent, and she immediately felt at peace just because of that pleasant yet soothing fragrance.
\'Ely, did you suddenly become a mommy? We got a baby daughter?\' Elena rested her cheek on her hand as she marveled at their current situation.
\'Maybe? Wait a moment, Sister Elena. Allow me to help Rhea absorb the surrounding magic energy according to Madam Lifa\'s advice. Rhea\'s magic energy recovery is really slow? Hmm...\' Elysia immediately worked to purify and absorb the surrounding magic energy and channeled it to Rhea. Although the quantity was not much, at least Rhea\'s EP was increasing.
\'Ely, you can also look for any spot that have abundant magic energy. We can find it to speed up Rhea\'s magic recovery, right?\' Elena gave a suggestion, but a fantastic idea suddenly came to her mind. \'Uh, wait a second. If we can recover our magic energy from the surrounding energy by purifying them, then... Hehe, incredible.\'
Elena chuckled at her own fantastic thought. She didn\'t expect that old granny would share a brilliant technique. Why had she never thought of such a breakthrough idea before?
If that was the case, wouldn\'t Elysia and her have almost unlimited magic energy then? Not to mention, they possessed an enormous energy pool capacity. It was the entire Soul Realm!
\'Okay, please stop right there. Don\'t be greedy, Sister Elena. We will receive the unknown punishment for that sin. We already have at least more than four and a half trillion magic energy, em energy points.\' Elysia immediately reminded Elena before any other excessive ideas came along.
\'Oh well...\' Elena simply brushed the thought aside.
At least, They had a great way to recover their magic energy if they used high-level magic that required a lot of energy. In addition, several other ideas were starting to come to mind, and they needed to be tested first.
\'Ahem, Ely, maybe this will be a little incovieniant for Rhea, but looks like you\'ll need to play a mama for a while.\' Elena had some other exciting ideas because of the baby Rhea. She tried her best not to grin.
\'Eh? But, I\'m disguised as a male elf, though? So, I\'m a papa, right?\' Elysia didn\'t immediately understand what Elena meant by that.
\'Hehe, it\'s not that simple, Ely. You will play as a mama eventually. And maybe, later, you know, hehe...\' Elena smirked and immediately covered her mouth. She tried not to burst into laughter. But, unfortunately, she couldn\'t stand the urge. \'Now, please excuse me.\'
Elysia just tilted her head in confusion. She could only hear Elena chuckling in the Soul Realm. So, it was definitely because of some exciting thing. She couldn\'t wait to listen to what Elena had in mind. But that would wait for later.
After that, Elysia and Nell said their goodbyes to Lifa, then they headed straight for Eshvelenora Woodland in invisible magic disguise, with Nell\'s magic carpet ride, of course.
"Rhea, how do you feel now?" Elysia stroked the baby\'s back in her arms.
"I feel a comfortable flow of magical energy flowing through my body. You are not only adept and skilled in Life Energy, but also great at using magic energy." Rhea took a comfortable position and closed her eyes. She felt a strong urge to sleep in her master\'s arms.
[| Lv. 231 | Goddess of Nature | Rhea | Female (N/A) | HP: 209,800 / 209,800 | EP: 30,124 / 362,600 |]
[| STR: 69 | AGI: 55 | VIT: 54 | INT: 86 |]
Elysia checked Rhea\'s status briefly once more. Rhea\'s EP was still rising slowly, but it was still under ten percent.
"Would you like to sleep? Then please sleep well. I\'ll wake you up when we\'re about to enter Eshvelenora Woodland." Elysia spoke softly near Rhea\'s ear, and Rhea\'s ear became a little flushed right after.
"En, thank you, master." After that, Rhea felt a true calm, and she went to sleep a few seconds later.
Feeling that Rhea was asleep, Elysia changed her \'baby\' sleeping position to a more comfortable one in her arms. Then, she looked at the nearby white cat.
Vanessa was lying down, looking at her master. Her most favorite cozy spot had been claimed by a Goddess who somehow became a baby all of a sudden. Even though she felt a lack of attention and warmth, she could only relent.
"Meow." Vanessa turned to the tortoise. She warned him not to bite or step on her tail. After all, she was wagging her tail, but the tortoise became interested in her tail movements as if he wanted to catch it.
The journey to the elven capital city passed peacefully until a few minutes later. Then, Nell couldn\'t help but ask as the one who would answer was Elysia, not Elena. "Nee, Elysia. I\'m sorry if I sound rude, but is Elena really your master? She is still your other half, no? I\'m sorry, but I think it\'s a bit strange for you to call your other half master."
"Eh? Ah, that\'s erm..." Elysia could only utter incoherent words as she became confused when such frank questions were suddenly thrown at her.
Seeing Elysia\'s inelegant response, Elena immediately left the Soul Realm and emerged herself. Then, she hugged Elysia from behind while looking at Nell right into the eyes.
"Ah, now that you\'ve said it. Yes, I\'m actually not Ely\'s master, it\'s just our pretense for a reason. Truth be told, we are very close sisters in one body." Elena instantly changed her gaze to a sharp, solemn one. "But, allow me to remind you, little one."
After saying that, Elena let go of her embrace from Elysia and drew a little closer to Nell. "You have a right to know because you already know some of our secrets, but I won\'t allow anything about Ely and me to get out of this small group. Got it?"
"I-I understand. Anything about you and Elysia is a secret only known to our small group. Thank you for telling me." Nell nodded repeatedly. She knew very well the importance of maintaining trust.
But, Elysia\'s words earlier rang in her mind. What had she done that caused Elena to look at her in a bad light?
"Good. I\'ll get mad if you don\'t keep your word, and you\'ll never know what I\'m going to do." Elena smiled and turned to face Elysia.
She looked at the baby Rhea with sparkling eyes as if she was looking at something interesting. However, she only gently stroked the baby for a moment then returned to the Soul Realm.
"Is that true?" Nell asked Elysia for clarity.
"En, that\'s true. I need an illustration master to protect me from the unexpected and the unknown. Elena and I are actually close sisters or you may refer to it as the other half. Umm, it\'s a bit complicated to explain. Sorry for not telling this." Elysia smiled faintly not only at Nell but at Vanessa as well.
Vanessa was taken aback for a moment, but she nodded in understanding a moment later. So, there was no grandmaster but her master\'s sister but still also her master, right? So anyway, she got to know her master better. And yet, she hadn\'t said anything about her to her master.
The white cat made up her mind to speak frankly before their little group went to the Beast Continent. After all, she would very much get involved there later.
"Ah, it\'s okay, Elysia. I can understand your reason, and you don\'t need to apologize either. However, I think this isn\'t fair to you because so far only your secrets has been brought up by Lifa, my big sister, or me." Nell shook her head and flew closer to Elysia. "If you have any doubts or something to ask, feel free to ask it no matter if it\'s Lifa, my big sister, or me. As long as that\'s what you want, we\'ll let you know without hesitation. Mm, okay?"
Nell said it all because she wanted Elysia not to feel awkward or unfair. But, at the end of the day, Elysia and Elena were the core of all of these operations. Not to mention, Nell already felt quite comfortable with this small group.
\'Well, that sounds fair. Just wait until I unearth your divine secrets.\' Elena put her hand on her cheek with a satisfied smile. She had a plan to talk further with those three Goddess personally and thoroughly, but the time had not yet come because of all the recent chaos.
"But, please keep our secret too. I can understand why Elena is so protective if it\'s related to you or yours. After all, no one would like for their secrets to be exposed outside the sphere of those they trust." Nell closed her sentence with a gentle tone and with a smile. As Elysia nodded, her smile became slightly more comprehensive.
"Oh look, we\'re almost at Eshvelenora Woodland. We\'ll be landing in about 15 minutes. Do you want to wake my baby sister now?" Nell turned her head and pointed at a forest city in the distance. Her magic carpet went really fast as they had two schedules today to complete.
"Oh, okay. I\'ll be playing as a papa. I hope Rhea can bring up her avatar to resemble herself as the Elven Goddess later in the palace." Elysia then tried to wake the cute baby in her arms gently and carefully.
After Rhea woke up, Elysia asked a few things to make sure. Fortunately, Rhea clarified that she was able to bring up her duplicate as an avatar. So, their mission in the elven palace later would go according to plan.
