Chapter 450: Immense Beauty and Wonder
"I\'ve been here. Did you miss me?" Elysia entered the Soul Realm after making sure Rhea was in a comfortable sleeping position.
"Mm..." Elena didn\'t say much and just buried her face into Elysia\'s arms. She inhaled Elysia\'s scent as she pleased.
"Umm, did you sniff me around? You surprisingly have an unusual fetish, Sister Elena." Elysia blushed a little, but she just stroked Elena\'s head in return.
"It\'s because I like it. For some reason, I want to hug you tight. Please allow me to stay like this until I fall asleep, Ely. Good night." Elena looked up for a moment to see Elysia\'s face, then she hugged Elysia tightly like her favorite hug pillow.
"Mm, good night. Have a nice dream, Sister Elena." Elysia just smiled faintly and kept stroking Elena\'s head gently. She even played with Elena\'s long golden hair a bit.
When Elena was asleep in peace, Elysia glanced at the girl\'s face, who was holding her tightly. She didn\'t really know what was going on, but she just smiled tenderly and kissed Elena\'s forehead. After that, she left the Soul Realm so no one would think she was in suspended animation.
Elysia flinched inwardly as a pair of mint green eyes stared straight into her eyes just as she opened them.
Rhea stared at Elysia silently as if something was on her mind.
\'Wh-what is it, Rhea? You have not fallen asleep yet?\' Elysia stuttered slightly in telepathy to respond to Rhea\'s silent stare.
\'Master Elysia, did you just come from your Private Realm? You scared me just now. Your spirit suddenly seems to have disappeared from somewhere from your body.\' Rhea blinked her eyes a few times and probed deep into Elysia\'s body. Now, Elysia was in a normal state. Nothing was different.
\'Ah, umm, perhaps, it can be said like that. I\'m not very familiar with my Private Realm because I\'m still learning it too.\' Elysia was hesitant because she lacked knowledge, and she wasn\'t sure to tell Rhea about her Soul Realm.
\'Mm, so my guess is correct. You have a Private Realm within you, Master Elysia. And, is Master Elena there now?\' Rhea looked at Elysia\'s purplish-blue eyes with an understanding look.
\'Ah, um, she\'s there. Why do you seem to have desire in your eyes, Rhea? Could it be-\' Elysia became even more nervous as she couldn\'t help but overthinking things.
\'As you might think, I\'d really like to pay a visit to your Private Realm, Master Elysia. It must be a world full of beauty and perfection of your dreams. That\'s why Master Elena is so comfortable spending time there most of the time.\' Rhea was silent for a few seconds before coming to a conclusion. \'But, it seems, your Private Realm is very different from the ones I\'ve known. Is it the Spirit Realm? Is it possible for me to come visit your Private Realm one day, Master Elysia?\'
\'Since our spirits are connected in a life contract connection, there must be a way. But, I just don\'t know how...\' Although feeling a little unsure, Elysia just decided to postpone Rhea\'s request for another time. She couldn\'t promise anything now because her Private Realm was in her own soul!
Although there was no certainty, Rhea took it as a yes. She replied with a radiant smile. \'Thank you, Master Elysia. I\'m really looking forward to that day. May I know, what is the name of your Private Realm?\'
\'Elena and I named our Private Realm the Soul Realm.\' Elysia also smiled to see Rhea was very happy and indeed free from pretenses
\'Soul Realm, hmm... It must be a realm of immense beauty and wonder, Master Elysia.\' Rhea closed her eyes and lay back down as if she was about to sleep.
\'This may be a bit rude to ask, but I know this from Madam Lifa... Please forgive me for asking, you may not answer if I cross my line. What happened to your Private Realm, Rhea?\' Elysia ventured to ask while the opportunity was there.
\'Mother told that? I see, but, it seems, my mother didn\'t give any explanation, huh...\' Rhea mumbled as she looked up at the ceiling.
Rhea\'s gaze became somewhat sad, and Elysia felt guilty for bringing up the topic out of curiosity.
\'You don\'t need to apologize and you haven\'t crossed your line at all, Master Elysia. You are my master, of course, you have the right to know anything about me.\' Rhea drew herself closer to Elysia.
\'As you know, I am an ascended being to the divine level with many imperfections. Basically, the Private Realm is the manifestation of the divinity core, the fragment of God-level soul. I ascended without having it.
And when I tried to create it, it only lasted for a short time before it collapsed for some unknown reason. Only two people know about this besides my mother and you, including Master Elena. No one knows why, no one. I\'m just fated not to have a Private Realm.\' Rhea muttered with a sad look as if she could only mourn her fate.
As if understanding the depth of sadness, Elysia grasped Rhea\'s delicate little hand without saying anything. She knew that Rhea didn\'t need a word of consolation for that but some mental support. It was one of his responsibilities as a figure of Rhea\'s pillar of life.
\'Thank you, Master Elysia. The two things that I am most grateful for so far are because I met my mother and you. It\'s getting late, let\'s sleep.\' Rhea grabbed Elysia\'s hand and closed her eyes.
\'En, come here.\' Elysia wrapped her other arm around Rhea\'s waist for a gentle hug.
Rhea just let herself be hugged. She found a comfortable position and rested her head on the pillow near Elysia\'s neck.
That night, Rhea fell fast asleep in Elysia\'s arms with their hands still intertwined.
Eight hours passed like a blink of an eye. A comfortable and restful sleep could even make the Goddess lose track of time.
Elysia woke up from her sleep and immediately got ready for morning activities. That day, she and her friends were already planning to go to the academy after all. And again, several individuals also wanted to go with them.
"Are you sure, Eve? We\'re going to the academy without wearing the academy uniform?" Elysia looked at her black dress with a blue butterfly print.
"Mm, very sure. Today is indeed an activity for the academy, but we didn\'t come there to join the class. Rather, to ask permission to take a few days off." Evelyn spun around once in front of the large mirror.
"Oh, Ely, you haven\'t claimed your resource pack this month, have you? Why don\'t we all collect it later?" Ella stroked the white cat with a smile.
"Thanks for reminding, Ella. Let\'s come to the Resource Building before going to the main academy building." Elysia didn\'t need to think twice. The free resource was something not to be missed.
"Ella and I have already claimed our resource pack. We will only accompany you, Ely." Evelyn then glanced at the red-eyed girl. "For you Sylvia, please forget to wear sunglasses, mkay? You could cause a misunderstanding that will get us in trouble."
"Without doubt." Sylvia immediately put on her sunglasses in a swift motion.
Elysia put a summer hat on Yuuki\'s head, then cast a little illusion magic to hide those foxtails. After that, similar magic was applied to Gio. He looked like he was wearing full-body armor with a dragon pattern, not a dragon-like man.
"Alright, everyone\'s ready, right? We\'re leaving now, and please don\'t cause any trouble." Elysia reminded while walking toward the exit.
"Aye!" Yuuki and Sylvia answered in unison.
Alexander just watched the group leave in silence. Meanwhile, Lucia and Isabelle simply waved their hands to send the group away.
"Ariel, Max, go and make sure they don\'t get into trouble. Tell the Goddess of Blessings and the Goddess of Nature that you\'ll be following in secret to make sure no one gets into trouble for the group." Alexander ordered in a clear voice.
"Affirmative."
"Roger."
Arial and Maximilian bowed respectfully, then hurried off to catch up with Elysia\'s group.
Alexander gulped down his herbal tea, then got up from his chair. "Lucia, let\'s go back to the Holy Cathedral. Would you like to come too, Isabelle?"
"I am honored to always be welcomed into the Celestine Family/s private area, however I still have some business to attend to at the Knight Association. With that being said, allow me to excuse myself." Isabelle gave a slight bow of respect.
"Well then, let\'s go out together. I\'ll be looking forward to a warm conversation with you this afternoon, Isa." Lucia nodded in understanding.
"With pleasure, Luci." Isabelle certainly didn\'t refuse at all.
Alexander just walked behind the two women casually. His daughter-in-law had become quite familiar with Evelyn\'s mother, thanks to the much free time they have spent together in the past week.
Outside Lavely Pizza, Ariel and Maximilian immediately asked permission to the baby in Elysia\'s arms. After getting a yes, the two of them immediately excused themselves.
Their job was not to keep Elysia\'s group from causing trouble but to keep problems away from the group.
\'Nee, shouldn\'t Miss Ariel and Sir Maximilian ask your permission, Nell? O-um, it turns out that you have entered into invisibility...\' Elysia glanced at the little floating Goddess.
\'Oh, you\'re right, Ely. No wonder they ignore my existence.\' Nell also just realized that she was already in invisibility. However, that\'s not a problem. \'Anyway, let\'s go. For your information, your academy headmaster is actually Emperor Arthur in disguise.\'
\'Hehe, I already knew that. But, thanks for the information.\' Elysia chuckled a little. She then walked to the Deterry Academy of Magic with her group.
