Chapter 420: Their Farewell
"No, no, what are you doing, father!?" Vanessa panicked and tried to prevent her father from continuing.
Unfortunately, Zach doesn\'t allow his daughter to move. He spoke with a firm tone and stern expression. "Don\'t move or resist the incoming energy. This is a secret technique possessed by the royal family. An heir must continue to live and carry the pride of their clan. You are the last bloodline of my family. You need this power to stay by the Almighty Goddess\'s side."
"But, but!" Vanessa froze and dared not move. She was afraid because her father was earnest about his words.
"There\'s no buts. You will ascend to Emperor-level soon with this Bloodline Inheritance Technique. I sacrificed everything for you, my daughter. Keep on living and be happy. Your father and your brother can no longer be by your side, but you already have your own. new little family. Come back to them, your master, and the others." Zach immediately finished his magic technique.
After that, he turned to Theo and Leila. He knew they both knew what he wanted to say with just a glance.
Theo and Leila only replied with a nod. Then, they paid their respect one last time to their departing lord.
However, a black cat was there and spoiled the profound moment of separation. "O, hey, that sounds cool. In that case, I also need to give my power to you, big sister. Wait a minute, I\'ll also give you my Energy Core before I completely disappear."
The corners of Zach\'s mouth twitched at that. He just slapped the back of his son\'s head. "You stupid son, it\'s a secret technique that only Emperor-level or above can use. Your puny strength doesn\'t mean much to your big sister."
"Ow, well, then it can also be used as a memento. Maybe, when we meet again, I can remember that I\'m your big brother, hehe..." Jimmy stroked the back of his head as he spoke with a silly laugh.
Zach just sighed softly. He saw his body fading and disintegrating faster than Jimmy because his Energy Core was no longer there.
He made the most of his meager remaining time to go in style. He turned around and laughed out loud.
"My time is up, send me away with a smile, ha-haha! A bright and amazing future is ahead of you! Farewell, until fate brings us together again." After saying that, Zach disintegrated entirely and became a star particle that flew into the night sky.
Vanessa opened her mouth, but no sound could come out of it. Therefore, she smiled as she watched the star particles leave like her father\'s last wish.
"Huff... He\'s gone first, and now is my time to go, big sister. Live your life full of joy and happiness. You don\'t have to worry about us because we will take our turn soon. Until we meet again if fate brings us together again, my little sister." Jimmy smiled and wiped his big sister\'s tears.
"I\'m not your little sister, silly Jimmy." Vanessa shed a few tears, but she still looked her brother right in the eye and gave a smile.
She knew her brother didn\'t want to see her cry at the end of his time.
"You look beautiful when you smile." Those were Jimmy\'s last words before he disintegrated into star particles and flew into the sky to catch up with his father. He only left his dark blue Energy Core behind.
No one knew where the star-shining particle would go. However, Elysia sees a distortion forming in the night sky to pick up Zach and Jimmy.
It only lasted for a very brief moment, and no one noticed it other than Elysia. The star particles simply disappeared and could no longer be seen anywhere.
\'What was that just now? Is that a distortion of the realm of the dead? Is that what happened on the other side when Madam Lifa used the Spirit Summoning Technique?\' Elysia could only wonder. She did not understand the laws of life and death.
\'It\'s okay, Ely. They work as arranged. The divine command of our technique is over. Zach and Jimmy have returned to the realm of the dead. I wonder what will happen if they reincarnate.\' Elena responded to the confused Elysia.
\'Mm, if it\'s said like that, maybe our case is a little bit the same. However, we\'re transmigrating, huh? Is the reason behind our case the absolute law of the universe? Is our current strength a gift from them? What do they want from us?\' Elysia started to wonder and went to something she couldn\'t find the answer to.
\'Who knows, Ely. We\'ll know when the time comes. Maybe, they want something from us, or they just want us to solve the problems of this world. Although our power in the form of imagination magic is incredible, we must not be arrogant and proud of ourselves. That absolute laws of the universe gives me goosebumps.\' Elena used her shared senses with Elysia to examine the night sky. Then, she trembled as she felt tiny and weak.
\'Mm, I feel that way too.\' Elysia rubbed her arms as if there was a cold aura that suddenly made her shiver.
After that, Elena continued her conversation with Lifa. Even though it was actually like an interrogation and a bit of coercion to squeeze knowledge out of Lifa.
Meanwhile, Elysia walked over and sat beside Vanessa.
Vanessa was still silent. She continued to stare at the night sky full of stars with a gaze of a thousand meanings that were difficult to explain. Her father and her brother left her once again.
As there was a lot of emotion in her mind and heart, she heard a soft yet soothing voice from the side. "Vann, would you like a hug?"
She didn\'t need consolation more than anything. It was as if her master knew what she wanted and needed, warmth.
The white cat tried to stay strong, but she decided to climb onto her master\'s lap and snuggle up there. Her master hugged her, but she still wanted to look up at the night sky, with her brother\'s Energy Core in her arms.
"Thank you, master. Please stay like this for some time." Vanessa asked after taking a deep breath.
"Okay." Elysia gave a clue to the two brown cats to come closer.
She tried to find Gio, but it turned out that he was in front of her. Gio was half-buried in the snow while looking up at the sky with a look full of comprehension.
That night, Elysia just sat on a thin barrier right above the snow. She was there to accompany the lonely heart in warmth and companionship.
Vanessa was aware of that. Thus she was no longer looking at the sky as her father and brother were no longer there. She turned to her uncle and aunt. Even though they were not related by blood, the length of their time together made up for that.
Vanessa smiled at them, then asked as she looked into her master\'s beautiful purplish-blue eyes. "Please hug me, master. I want to sleep in your arms."
Elysia didn\'t need to say her agreement and just hugged her white cat. She walked back to her sleeping bag, and the three beasts followed closely behind.
"What are your plans for the future, Theo, Leila?" Elysia suddenly asked.
"If that is possible, please allow us to follow you and serve you as our new lord, o Almighty Goddess. This is Lord Zach\'s last wish to us, and we hope that you will accept us." Theo asked while kneeling. He also felt a little embarrassed, remembering that he had attacked this Goddess in the past.
Leila also knelt down. "This is also our wish. Please."
"If you have sincerity and determination, then you can join our boat. However, you need to remember that a fraught of dangers awaits us." Elysia had already decided that with Elena, she already knew Zach\'s plans for these two brown cats. Although most of the reasons we\'re out of consideration for Vanessa.
"We will not hesitate to face death if necessary. Your noble task of saving the world is one that must be accomplished no matter what. Please accept our obeisance." Theo said that with conviction. Then, he and his wife paid their obeisances to Elysia.
"All right, welcome to the boat, Theo, Leila." Elysia greeted with a smile.
At that moment, the starry night sky was slowly illuminated by the sheen of the morning sun.
Elysia watched the sunrise phenomenon in a sleeping bag with a white cat sleeping on her tummy. Theo and Leila decided to use the sleeping fox girl as a seat, while Gio just did random things.
Nell yawned above Elysia\'s head. She was so calm and silent in the last few hours because of the atmosphere. As requested, she did not sleep and continued to protect her small group if anything untoward happened.
"Uhm, hng, ouch..." A noise came from the side.
Yuuki seemed to be in pretty significant discomfort and nightmare. It was as if one or two heavy and hairy objects were pressing down on her.
She squirmed here and there, but the discomfort was still there. Finally, she awoke with a somewhat tangled morning passion.
As she looked at her tummy, she was pretty annoyed to see that it was the two cats\' fault. "Woo, it turned out to be you guys. I had a bad dream. I was squashed by two heavy hairy rocks!"
"Good morning, Yuuki. How was your sleep?" Elysia greeted warmly.
"Un, good morning. I had an amazing sleep last night, until before that nightmare." Yuuki instantly changed her expression to a bright one. She stroked her sleeping bag as if it was a priceless treasure.
