Chapter 382: Lunch Before Leaving
Without waiting for anything, Elysia immediately picked up Vanessa and put the white cat on her lap. She asked her contracted beast condition in a gentle, caring tone. \'Vann, are you okay? Did something happen?\'
Vanessa took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She really wanted to tell her master about her life story and background, but not right here and right now. \'It\'s okay, master. After this, please spare your time for me personally. I want to talk to you about something important before we go to the Beast Continent.\'
\'All right, anything for you, Vann. After this, I will invite you to visit the best cafe in this forest city. Anything you want to tell me on a private time, can be done when your mood is good. OK? Whatever it is, we will always be by your side.\' Elysia stroked Vanessa gently, and the latter responded with a nod.
Feeling a little comforted, Vanessa curled up on her master\'s lap as if going to bed.
Meanwhile, Rhea asked a few things to confirm with the five elven sovereigns first. She needed to know at least a little more if danger or trouble would await them on the Beast Continent on their visit.
After all, she needed to make sure that her little group, especially her master, was always safe from harm. Although the information provided by the five elven sovereigns was not detailed, it was useful nonetheless.
Having had enough, Rhea got up from the seat while grasped her hand politely and gracefully. "Thank you for your reminders and suggestions. We really appreciate the information."
"We apologize for our limited information, even though the Beast Continent is in the southwest of our continent." Ashera also stood up from her seat, and so did the other four elves.
"Mm-hmm, you don\'t need to apologize. We fully understand the current state of the world. With that being said, you shall set things up for the preparations we discussed earlier. The fate of the elves is in your hands, please help us protect this world from destruction." Rhea glanced at Elena and the others for a second, then let that be. She didn\'t know why they hadn\'t moved from their seats yet.
"Mm, your words are orders for us elves, o the glorious Elven Goddess. All praise and thanks are due to you." Ashera clasped her hands together as if to show a tribute.
"Praise the Goddess!" The four elven sovereigns spoke in unison with reverence.
"Hm, that\'s the end of this meeting. We expect a lot from you to fortify your own territory from those accursed monsters. May we meet again on another occasion with the elves already fully prepared for even the worst." Elena got up from her seat, and so did Elysia. She also postponed her telepathic conversation with Elysia because it was time for them to leave.
"Thank you for your enlightenment and generosity. We will do our best to live up to your expectations." Ashera didn\'t forget to pay her respects to the other two Goddesses.
"Mm-hmm..." Elena didn\'t respond much and just turned around.
"See you later. Be careful on your journey." Hea waved her hand, but it was just a small bump instead of something resembling a hand.
At the same time, the three Goddesses and the human girl suddenly disappeared into light particles in an instant. It was as if they had never been there in the first place. Only a little brown tortoise remained on the seat, confused by the current situation. One proof that the Goddesses had been there with them.
Wait, one of their two pets was accidentally left behind? Did they forget to take this tortoise with them?
*Poof*
As that thought crossed the minds of the five elven sovereigns and Hea, the little brown tortoise suddenly became like a puff of smoke and disappeared completely from everyone\'s sight.
Several seconds passed in silence until a certain elf opened his mouth to break the atmosphere.
"They\'re gone, it\'s time for us to get to work. There\'s a lot of work we need to do on our beloved continent." Uevareth tried to spot divine existences if they were still around. Still, it was futile as he found nothing but his fellow elven sovereign and the tiny fluffy ball.
A certain blonde-haired and red-eyed Elven Emperor seemed to ignore everything and only approached the throne seat previously occupied by the Goddess of Nature.
"Fwooh! this seat is still warm and fragrant. Our glorious Elven Goddess previously sat here." Gaerradh stood right beside the throne seat and checked something with his hand.
The next event truly shocked the others as Gaerradh actually sniffed it like an animal.
"You! Damn, what are you trying to do to my throne seat, you idiot. Can\'t you have a little dignity to behave?" Aleratha became furious and stepped up to grab the stupid elf.
"Yo, chill out, Empress Aleratha. I didn\'t do anything but check something. Ahem, would you mind lending me your thore seat for a while?" Gaerradh brushed off the black-haired elf\'s hand with a light sweep.
"No. It\'s not going to happen, and that\'s absolute." Aleratha flatly refused and immediately put her throne seat into her Space Bag without delay.
Then, she pointed at the throne seat at the other end, the one that was occupied by the cat and the tortoise just a moment ago. "Yours is right there. Go and get it for yourself. I don\'t care if you want to sniff your throne seat or whatever you want to do with it. Hmph!"
"Weirdo." Hea looked at the red-eyed elf with a look of disdain.
"Did you say something, tiny fluffy creature?" Gaerradh frowned and smiled intimidatingly.
"Eew, the rude yet weirdo elf is angry!" Hea immediately flew away to hide in Ashera\'s cleavage.
"Ooh." Ashera felt a little ticklish-like feeling at the tiny fluffy ball\'s sudden arrival.
Nevertheless, she just let Hea be there. She moved closer to her throne seat and stowed that too into her Space Bag for some unexplained reason.
The other two elven sovereigns also put their own throne seat into their Space Bag as if following the right path.
After that, all the elven sovereigns apart from Gaerradh took out their other throne seats and placed their positions in five different sections. After all, they would have a grand meeting on a very urgent topic after this.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the shopping area, Elysia bought some robes for personal use plus cute yet pretty baby clothes for Rhea.
Elysia didn\'t take long to buy that typical elf clothes as she could easily find the suitable ones to buy.
Finished with that, Elysia, who was still disguised as a male elf, went to a restaurant cafe to improve Vanessa\'s mood and also had lunch.
"Elluin Paeris? This is the right place, right?" Elysia looked at the signboard and asked softly for confirmation.
A moment ago, she asked some polite elves at the shopping center for the best cafe restaurant, and this place was the one they recommended.
"I\'m pretty sure this is the right place." Rhea nodded in Elysia\'s arms, then peered back from Elysia\'s shoulder.
When she confirmed that no one was following them, she breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed in Elysia\'s warm embrace. Well, she needed to share a place with the white cat too.
\'Nell, let\'s have lunch here first before we continue our journey to the Beast Continent.\' Elysia opened the cafe restaurant\'s entrance as she raised small talk.
\'En, I\'m sure this Gio is hungry too. You need to spend extra budget for him, Elysia.\' Nell didn\'t mind at all. She was actually quite happy to pamper her tongue in a fancy place like this before leaving.
\'It does not matter. I\'m more than capable enough to support a few greedy individuals.\' Elysia gave a smile to the little Goddess who was floating in front of her.
\'Yeah, yeah.\' Nell only took it as a joke because she knew that none of them had any financial difficulties.
"Welcome to Elluin Paeris. Is there anything we can do to help, sir?"
Several waitress ladies clad in revealing maid dress greeted in unison, but only one of them asked the customer\'s needs who had just entered.
Elysia didn\'t immediately give an answer. She looked around for a moment to inspect that place at a glance.
The first impression that she got from that cafe-restaurant was that it was a comfortable and fancy place with the feel of luxury and gave great aesthetic pleasure to anyone in it.
After a few seconds, Elysia looked back at the waitress lady in front of her. "Some kind and polite elves recommended this place to me. Is a private room available?"
"Of course, sir. Would you like a private room for two?" The waitress lady smiled as if she knew that this customer was new to this cafe restaurant.
Elysia thought for a moment to estimate something before giving an answer. "No, please a private room for eight."
"E-eight? May I know if any of your friends will come to join you, sir?" The waitress lady became a bit confused. This customer came with only two individuals, right?
"Yes, a private room for eight or the biggest room is also ok. Please don\'t get me wrong because you only see me and my baby daughter. I need a big room because I eat a lot." Elysia gave a little explanation as if she knew the confusion that hit the waitress lady.
"Oh! Okay, understood. A private party room, isn\'t it?"
"Yes, that\'s fine too." Elysia nodded in response.
"Then allow me to escort you to your room. This way, please." The waitress lady showed the way with her palm then walked in front to guide the customer.
