Chapter 572 - Sealed Magic Energy
Half a day had passed, and the excitement had subsided a bit when several official parties explained that the news circulating on the internet was just a hoax. Some of them believed, but others insisted that something catastrophe would soon befall the world just because of that omen.
Meanwhile, Elysia\'s eyes fluttered slightly as her spirit returned to consciousness. She could see Elena lying next to her on her stomach.
It was as if Elena was trying to wake her up or protect her from something?
"Elena, Sister Elena, please wake up. Can you hear me? Please wake up soon. We seem to be trapped in a rather damp, cramped, and dark place..." Elysia propelled her body and tried to pat Elena\'s cheek. She tried to see the situation outside but only saw darkness.
"Ah, uhm..." Elena returned to consciousness gradually. She blinked her eyes a few times. Several events that had just happened before she fainted flashed back into her mind.
"Ah, Ely, are you okay? Thank goodness... I was really worried about you. Sob, I thought you weren\'t there because you weren\'t breathing and your heart wasn\'t beating. Please keep giving signs of life even if it\'s just your spirit as usual." Elena immediately hugged Elysia tightly with a little sob.
Elysia was surprised by Elena\'s sudden emotional turmoil, but she smiled gently and returned the hug. "Mm, my spirit should have done that."
After a while, Elena then recounted what she experienced after Elysia was unconscious. It started from surviving a black hole through an exit passage to escaping fully armed navy soldiers.
We are now in a disguised cave on a deserted island in the middle of the ocean. Ely, what should we do now? We returned to Earth when Vrelenia still needed us the most. Sylvia and Vanessa bounced off somewhere. Rhea turned into a bracelet and came with us, but we don\'t know what happened to the Heretic God and Ruvoid God after we escaped from the void." Elena felt a bit panicked to remember their current situation.
"Mm, alright. Please take a deep breath and exhale slowly. Let\'s think back on our current situation calmly. If we can return to Earth, then we can also go to Vrelenia. Sylvia and Vanessa might be stranded somewhere in this world. We just need to find them as soon as possible." Elysia patted Elena\'s shoulder then gave a hand up and down movement.
Elena did as instructed, but it was reminded her of one bad possibility. "Evil God and Ruvoid God might also be stranded into this world. Earth is also in danger, right!?"
"Then, this one doesn\'t spark joy. We also need to find them as soon as possible." Elysia clasped her hand as she also felt the situation was getting worse. They did not only get into trouble, but they could also harm the Earth. The apocalypse might happen.
"Let\'s take a look at the situation out there first. We need to gather information and act quickly." Elysia decided, and Elena agreed with it.
"You will be in charge of it while I will support you from within the Soul Realm. Rhea is also still in a mysterious predicament which we don\'t know why she turned into a bracelet." Elena smiled, but she sighed in the end.
"Sure. Thank you for protecting us all, Sister Elena. I don\'t know what would have happened without you." Elysia hugged Elena once more and returned to her body after staying there.
"Anything for you, Ely..." Elena whispered softly to Elysia\'s powerless spirit in her arms. She then lay down on the bed while hugging her Elysia.
Elysia returned to her body and opened her eyes. She felt her body feel quite sore and sluggish, as if she had just done a strenuous activity.
They were currently on a small island with only cliffs and sand around. The sound of the waves rustling can be heard from various directions, and the distinctive aroma of salt attacks the sense of smell. However, Elysia widened her eyes when she noticed the cave slightly flooded.
"The tide? It\'s night out there and the sea has risen? We better get out of here or we\'ll drown." Elysia stood as she held the cave wall as a support.
She tried to push the stone that sealed the exit, but she didn\'t have the strength to complete the task. When she tried to use her magic, she was extremely surprised because she couldn\'t feel any magic energy in her body. "Eh?"
The panicked Elysia immediately checked her current status screen to ensure something.
<| Lv. 40 | Apprentice Mage | Elysia Avery | Female (16) | HP: 6,400 / 6,400 | EP: - / - |>
<| STR: 5 | AGI: 26 | VIT: 7 | INT: 5,025 |>
\'Oh dear me! Sister Elena, do you see what I\'m looking at right now? Our magic energy disappeared from our status screen.\' Elysia informed with some uneasiness.
\'Mm, I saw it, Ely. Is it possible that our magic energy is mysteriously sealed? I could still use magic before I evacuated here. This is weird...\' Elena tried to scan Elysia\'s body from the inside out. She could detect two alien existences there, namely Rhea in the form of a bracelet and a black rune bracelet tattoo on Elysia\'s left forearm.
\'The black rune tattoo on your left forearm... I never remember us having that before. Did someone install it on us while we were unconscious? That\'s probably the crux of all this trouble. Try to get rid of that seal, Ely.\' Elena tried to analyze the black rune bracelet tattoo and concluded.
\'But, how?\' Elysia didn\'t know what she needed to do now. She relied too much on her magic, but now she was in a state of being unable to use it anymore.
\'Try using your imagination. Sometimes, you can break all rules and common sense without magic energy, right?\' Elena tried to propose a solution.
Elysia then eliminated the seal, but she failed to achieve anything despite three attempts. She then just took something from her Space Bag hidden behind her waist belt accessories.
*Boom!*
The cave wall was blasted open.
"Phew... Luckily, Devil Emperor Dylan gifted me some of his advanced weapons. This would be of great use in our current situation. But, ugh, this is so heavy." Elysia rolled the long-barreled cannon back into her white Space Bag. She just couldn\'t lift it without the help of magic.
Elysia then looked at the moon in the night sky and the vast expanse of the ocean under the starry night sky. However, she couldn\'t stay there for long because the seawater was slowly rising.
She went towards a slightly higher ground while contemplating how to get away from this desert island. At the same time, she tried to access her necklace\'s green gem, but it didn\'t respond because she didn\'t have any magic energy now. Rhea didn\'t answer her call either.
\'Ely, if you can use an Energy Core powered magic item, then you can summon our divine battlesuit, right? It could fly us to the nearest civilization.\' Elena came up with a brilliant idea.
\'Ah, that\'s a great idea!\' Elysia checked her current body. She is currently in Elena\'s form, so she summons Elena\'s golden bracelet.
A beautiful gold bracelet appeared on Elysia\'s right hand. She then held onto it and muttered in his mind. \'Emergency summon, divine angel battlesuit.\'
Elysia\'s dress instantly turned into particles and transformed into a long white-gold robe with several ornaments in the form of golden wings and feathers. Six golden white wings appeared on her back a moment later.
\'Hm, we can\'t summon our divine magic staff without magic. But, hmm? Why are there so many cracks and tears there?\' Elysia checked her current battlesuit with a raised eyebrow.
\'It was damaged by the ferocious dimensional turmoil when we were thrown back to Earth. Your fallen angel battlesuit has a much more severe level of damage. We\'d better fix this damage right away. We also need to find out Rhea\'s condition soon.\' Elena explained a bit. However, a thought suddenly crossed his mind.
\'Ely, I advise you to go cultivate in a safe and secluded place, away from humans and disturbances. Maybe, some Energy Cores can recover some of our EP to communicate with Rhea, Lifa, or whoever it is. We\'re too conspicuous if you go to town in that form.\' Elena suggested with a gentle voice as she felt it was the best solution to their current situation.
Elysia considered a few things first. She could fly, and her battle power was increased drastically due to her battlesuit, but it wasn\'t equipped with invisible skills. Anyone could spot an eye-catching, sparkling golden angel in the dark of night with ease.
With that being said, Elysia headed straight for the top of the high cliff next to her. She punched a hole in the cliff and entered after sealing the exit with a large rock.
In that cramped space, Elysia sat in a seiza position. She started cultivating to recover some EP with the help of some Energy Cores.
Half an hour passed, and Elena could see Elysia\'s EP had gone up by a few hundred. She then told Elysia about it. \'Ely, for a first try, let\'s use your magic energy to remove the seal on your left forearm.\'
Elysia immediately opened her eyes and tried to eliminate the seal with her imagination magic. Minimal magic effort and consumption, Elysia removed the black rune bracelet tattoo.
[EP -225]
\'Ah, so we only need 225 EP for this. Now your current status is back to the one I remembered, Ely.\' Elena heaved a sigh of relief as her conjecture proved correct.
<| Lv. 40 | Apprentice Mage | Elysia Avery | Female (16) | HP: 6,400 / 6,400 | EP: - / - |>
<| STR: 5 | AGI: 26 | VIT: 7 | INT: 5,025 |>
Elysia tried to look at her current status screen, but she couldn\'t see anything had changed. \'Nothing has changed, though?\'
\'This is ridiculous! Ely, look back at your left forearm, the black rune bracelet tattoo has reappeared.\' Elena exclaimed in amazement.
Elysia didn\'t understand what was happening either. She then cultivated again to recover 225 EP, then she tried to eliminate the seal once again.
The activity was repeated several times. Elysia cultivated for a while, removed the seal, and the very same seal reappeared a few moments later.
It was such a wasted effort. Even so, Elysia could see that her status screen had displayed a lot of numbers in her EP.
However, Elysia determinedly set up an absolute divine barrier around herself on her fifth try right after eliminating the seal. One, two, three, until a minute passed without any event, and the black rune bracelet tattoo no longer appeared on her left forearm.
\'Please have a little mercy, people from another world!\'
A whisper sounded in Elysia\'s mind. It was not the voice of Elena, Rhea, or anyone she knew.. A complete stranger.
