Chapter 462: Unexpected Guests (2)
"Ah, no, it\'s not what you see, Ely. We\'re just having a bit of a casual argument. No problem involved, really." Rosie gave a peace hand sign. She didn\'t want to be seen as wrong in Elysia\'s eyes.
"Haa, look at that over there. Are you going to question the unpleasant difference like just now? Your Goddess, the Goddess of Blessings is actually more like a half-human, half fairy. Then, the Goddess of Nature is like a baby elf. Ely and her master actually like mysterious angels?" Sylvia pointed her palm at Elysia and the Goddesses.
"Hum-hm, what do we have here? An argument? We\'ve had a pretty tiring day with lots of issues to sort out. If you want to cause a ruckus, please forgive me as I will send you off." Elena smiled faintly with her eyes closed. She wasn\'t in the mood to be bothered with a fuss.
"Look, the Goddess of Light has spoken." Sylvia smirked at the humans on the opposite sofa.
"That includes you, Sylvia." Elena added to the smug girl.
"Ugh, okay. I\'m a good girl, so I will give in and ignore the problem just now." Sylvia loosened her shoulders and obeyed like a submissive girl. She seemed to know that Elysia\'s master was moody or maybe tired.
"..." Elysia was at a loss for words. However, her eyes lit up to know that Elena settled the dispute effortlessly and simply.
\'That doesn\'t apply if you are viewed by others as the ever kind Ely. For something like this, you can only achieve the same result if you present yourself as a respected or feared lofty one. Your every word will be a command to others.\' Elena gave a wink to Elysia.
Since the sofas felt packed and cramped, she just made a new one with her imagination magic. She sat there and motioned for Elysia to sit next to her, Nell also included.
"So, you came to visit, Ely?" Elena asked kindly.
"Mm, we want to visit Elysia." Rosa nodded in relief. Then, she turned her attention to Elysia. "Ely, my lucky star, I\'m glad you are well and healthy."
"Thanks for your concern, Rosa. I\'m also glad to see you\'re still as excited and cheerful as ever. If I may ask, why are there so many shopping bags near you? It\'s yours, isn\'t it?" Elysia looked confusedly at the pile of shopping bags beside Rosa.
"Oh, this. Yes, it\'s a gift from me. You remember, I\'m going to give you a batch of the latest gorgeous dresses every week. You know, I have great news for us." Rosa patted the pile of bags with an excited smile.
"If you smile like that, I feel confused whether you are really happy or expect something from me..." Elysia scratched her head with a weak smile.
"Ohoho, no, this time I\'m really happy. Actually, Starlight Apparel already has seven branches in other big cities! Plus, I already have three convections with over a hundred certified professional tailors. What I bring is products featured. It\'s just a gift from me." Rosa wiggled her hands as if she couldn\'t contain her excitement.
"I\'m glad to hear that, Rosa. Please forgive me for not being able to visit you as your model recently." Elysia felt a little guilty. Maybe, she could no longer be a model for Rosa.
"No, it\'s okay. I know you have a busy life that you can\'t leave." Rosa glanced at the Goddesses and continued. "Actually, in another six weeks, Starlight Apparel will stop in fancy clothes production for an undetermined period of time."
"Huh? Why?" Elysia was taken back. Stopping production at the peak of business success was a decision that was impossible for Rosa to take.
"You may not know this yet, but Pope Alexander has already issued an order which was reaffirmed by the four Emperors. We will prepare for war and Starlight Apparel will switch to supplying armor~" Rosa put her hands together and hummed.
"O-oh, then you\'re still producing clothes nonetheless..." Elysia shook her head.
"Hm, now it\'s time for me to speak, Rosa." Rosie nudged the girl next to her.
"Oh, go ahead." Rosa opened her palms in reply.
"Ely, glad we can meet again. Are you all right and well? Have you eaten? You slept well, right?" Rosie asked like a worried mother.
"Mm, thanks for your concern, Rosie. I\'m doing well with nothing to worry about. How about you? You look a little pale. Are you feeling unwell? Elysia\'s friendly reminder, you\'d better get a good night\'s sleep. Please don\'t stay up all night again." Elysia felt a little worried, as if she knew the cause.
"Hehe, as expected of you, Ely. You can guess that easily. But, well, I\'ll get enough sleep tonight." Rosie smiled happily to receive Elysia\'s attention and concern.
"Hm, this is really unexpected. No wonder why I felt something strange when we met this morning. White fox girl, human with blood red cursed eyes, huge dragon-like man... You have the unexpected new friends, Elysia." Raylee heaved a subtle sigh with a smile.
Even so, he stole several glances at the baby on Elysia\'s lap. He still felt surprised and dumbfounded to know that that little girl, previously introducing herself as Elysia\'s baby daughter, was actually a divine being.
"Hehe, they are good individuals. Please be a little nicer to them without taking racial differences into consideration. That way, they will also be kind to you." Elysia looked at Gio, Yuuki, and Sylvia.
The former simply crossed his arms as if not involved in the conversation. The last two were happy to be mentioned in the statement. Yuuki even wagged those seven tails unconsciously.
"Hehe, I\'ll keep that in mind. Although I don\'t care about racial differences because I love peace. But, well... I\'m still surprised to know that your baby daughter is actually a divine being, Elysia." Raylee laughed as if he had just been given a good prank.
"Huh?" Elysia gave Sylvia and Yuuki a questioning look. However, they just shook their heads while waving to signify they didn\'t say anything about it.
"Have you forgotten that I am the Eastern Region\'s Prince, Elysia? Such information has already spread to several parties uncontrollably. Rosa only found out just now, and Rosie already know about it two hours ago." Raylee added an explanation to what she said earlier while watching Rosa\'s shocked expression. The girl just found out that the little girl on Elysia\'s lap was a divine being.
"I see. It seems, someone intentionally or unintentionally spread this about..." Elysia could only heave a sigh as it got out of hand any more.
"Hm, it won\'t be a problem for us even if my identity is known by some human circles. I know that only nobles with authority know about it. Am I right?" Rhea patted Elysia\'s thigh so the latter would not overthink about the spreading information.
"Yes, you are right, the Goddess of Nature. This may be a delay on my part, but please accept my greetings to you. It is an honor to be in the presence of three Goddesses at once.
The Goddess of Light, the Goddess of Nature, and the Goddess of Blessings. If I can meet the Beast God and Devil God, then in my lifetime, I have encountered all divine beings! Who would have thought that this world had more than three divine beings, hahaha..." Raylee gave a polite bow, then laughed while puffing his chest. He seemed to feel happy and proud of his achievement.
"Actually, there are two more divine beings in this world apart from the ones you mentioned. One is unlikely to meet you, and the other one is the one we will be visiting tomorrow." Nell shrugged her shoulders to destroy Raylee\'s laughter.
"Oho, then, this world has seven divine beings? Wow, this is good news for all of us. Hopefully, the battle of the next three months will be won by us with complete annihilation of those curse bearing monsters." Raylee stroked his chin with an enlightened expression.
"There is no longer a Devil God, only an Evil God. He has given up his true identity for the sake of a new power." Sylvia harrumphed to express her disapproval.
"No more Devil God, but Evil God? This is the first time I\'ve heard of this. But why do you seem so sure of your claim?" Raylee frowned with a hint of doubt on his face.
Rosa, Rosie, and Fran were also suspicious about that blood-red-eyed girl.
"Hey, don\'t give me that look again or I\'ll get mad. It was you who broke my sunglasses." Sylvia pointed rudely at Raylee in annoyance.
"O-haha, I\'m sorry, I\'ll compensate you with a new one. But, please answer my question because what you just said could mean a lot to us. What do you mean by Evil God? believed and proven true? Or, is it just a baseless random claim?" Raylee scratched the back of his head awkwardly. Nevertheless, he repeated the question because it was necessary.
"Why don\'t you ask the Goddess of Light and the Goddess of Blessings directly? They know the truth more than I do." Sylvia just rolled her eyes and pointed her open palm at the Goddesses.
"It\'s as Sylvia said. There is no longer a Devil God, but Evil God. About two weeks ago, he performed a forbidden ritual to gain new powers.
The truth is, his own existence was considered a scourge even from the Devil Race itself because what he had done in the past thousand years was vile and unforgivable. The exchange of profits is the one that allows the Evil God to come back and cooperate with the entire Devil Race. I know it." Nell could tell that far only from her last encounter with the Evil God and Sylvia\'s situation that Elysia told her.
