BXBX NOVEL Chapter 714: Cleaning Up
Chapter 714: Cleaning Up
Elysia stepped into Heavenly Valhalla. She looked up at Elena\'s face to indicate that she could stand on her own now. Thanks to the life energy donation earlier, she was back fit and energetic.
"Gio, I want you to use your earth elemental radar to scan the cursed monsters in this devastated forest area. You have one hour to force those monsters out of hiding. If you do your job well, you might get a compliment or a gift from your master Elysia." Lifa beckoned towards Gio to come closer and whispered with a faint smile on her face.
Gio scratched his head. He could understand what this green-haired lady was talking about even though it was the same language the others spoke. For some reason, whenever this lady said, he could understand her no matter the reason. That was a bit strange, and he couldn\'t tell how this lady could do it while he still couldn\'t understand that language.
However, his current focus is not that. He was tempted to complete the task because he wanted to get his master\'s praise.
"Hmm." Gio rubbed his head and went near Elysia to announce his departure to the barren land below.
"Mm, please be careful of curses. Vann, please accompany Gio with what he\'s doing down there. He\'s powerful and has a great defense, but curses are fatal for him. Bring some anti-curse mechanisms with you." Elysia patted Gio\'s arm and gave Vanessa two anti-curse mechanism staff.
"Yes, master." Vanessa accepted the assignment, and she immediately went down there with Gio.
Elysia then took a deep breath and looked down at the bare ground below. It used to be a forest of lush green trees, but that was all gone just because of those slime-like monsters.
"Plants and trees are often the victims of vandalism and destruction. They are aware of the impending danger, but they cannot escape. Whatever they do in self-defense sometimes ends up being a wasted effort. They too have life, but their existence is often ignored." Lifa grasped her hand and looked up at the evening sky.
"Hmm, thousands of Spirit Trees and dozens of Saint Trees sent me their final message. They wish the saplings a world of peace after them. A world where there is no more destruction, chaos, and despair. Are you going to reforest this land again?" Elysia muttered under her breath and looked at the lady next to her.
A few gentle breezes brushed her hair like the caress of nature, but her heart was guilty remembering what she had done three months ago. When she first learned of her power, she did much damage to that forest. She probably also killed many innocent creatures because of the explosion and great disaster that hit that forest.
However, Elysia just ended up sighing and clasped her hands in prayer. What had happened was over, but she still needed to send a prayer for them. She also needed to be more careful in using magic regarding the destruction of nature.
"Yes, I will green this area again. The saplings will grow again here. A new forest." Lifa nodded and watched the monster survivor hunt.
"Nothing can escape me. Water Flow, Burst!" Oceanid clenched his fist and raised his hand upwards. An explosion of underground springs shook the ground and spewed an enormous volume of mud into the air.
Several small black insect creatures wriggled in the air helplessly.
"Kill those damned maggots before they multiply even more! Crush their heads with sharp weapons without magic!" Oceanid shouted out to the hundreds of elves around him. He then triggered more underground water explosions to spit out the little monsters, nowhere to escape for them.
"Yes, sir God!" The elves answered in unison. They slashed the black maggots in the air and crushed those little monsters\' heads.
Some curse energy attacked the elves, but the anti-curse mechanisms did a great job protecting them.
Meanwhile, Nell was simply monitoring the entire region from the high skies. She used her magic vision in detail to the land below and informed Oceanid about the detected tiny monsters.
Gio just landed on the ground and folded his arms to see what everyone did to exterminate those puny accursed creatures. He only snorted because he judged they weren\'t doing their job effectively even though two divine beings were involved in the operation.
\'My masters are powerful and mighty.\' Gio surveyed the barren land that spread out very wide with some understanding. He crouched down and picked up a handful of soil to examine it.
"..." Vanessa just stood a few meters to the side. She didn\'t know what Gio would do, but she was ready to help if needed.
"Hmm..." Gio nodded slightly and stood up straight again. He gave a gesture to his senior to fly a few meters into the air.
"Hmm?" Vanessa tilted her head slightly in confusion. However, she complied with the request without questioning anything.
Gio folded his arms and closed his eyes. He spanned his eyes open a moment later with a brown gleam of light shining from his eyes. "Hmph!"
A minor earthquake shock spread out in all directions like an underground shockwave.
*Rumble*
The ground crumbled and rippled with an irregular tempo. It was as if the soil had lost its density significantly and turned like powder.
The ground rippled and turned into a swell of waves that swept over and dragged everything out. Earth waves continue to spread to hundreds of kilometers and continue to expand.
*Squawk!*
Hundreds of various little black creatures with cursed auras were dragged by the earth currents without being able to do anything. They tried to absorb the magical energy from that earth elemental attack. Yet, the earth powder continued to hit them without mercy or even delay.
"Slaughter that cursed creature! Leave none alive!" Oceanid gave orders to the elves.
"For the sake of nature and elves!" The elves brandished their weapons and exterminated the little monsters swept away by the earth currents.
"I forgot that he is an Earth God candidate. He can have complete control as long as it\'s on land." Oceanid scratched his head and glanced at Gio in the distance. He then used his magic vision to check whether any monsters managed to escape or not.
After an hour of hunting the little monster, the elves returned to Heavenly Valhalla with joy. They celebrated their victory with no casualties.
"Hmm-mm~" Lifa hummed beside the elves\' cheers as if she wasn\'t affected by their happiness.
She opened a pouch and sprinkled a green seed powder in the air. The breeze seemed to know what she wanted to do. It immediately helped her spread the seed powder over the baren land below.
"Hmm, nn~ It will rain tonight, and a new forest will be reborn here at sunrise. We\'d better spend the night at Eshvelenora Woodland tonight." Lifa smiled tenderly towards the overcast sky.
"Shall we go now?" Elysia suggested.
"Yeah, let\'s go now. I want to meet Hea soon." Lifa glanced at the elves and nodded.
Oceanid just nodded when he received eye contact from Lifa and Elysia. He gave a gesture to everyone in his group, and they boarded the Gravy Ark in invisibility.
Their departure was unknown to Elven Empress Ashera Nirvalen or Elven Emperor Uevareth Krissalor. By the time Ashera was freed from the overjoyed elves, she couldn\'t find the divine group anywhere.
"Hngh! We finally have a peaceful, relaxing time after the tension on the battlefield. It\'s a shame that I can\'t do anything to help." Sylvia did a little stretching while she and her group were strolling in the middle of Elven Forest City.
"Hmm, Master Elysia and the Goddess of Light eliminated over ninety percent of the threat in minutes." Vanessa muttered softly with pride.
"Grrr..." Gio just snored as if he had fallen asleep. He was in the hands of his master as a little tortoise, receiving several head pats until he went to dreamland because of the bliss and comfort.
"It\'s a really nice reward for him. Being pampered by Ely, really comfortable." Yuuki muttered in envy while glancing at the little brown tortoise in Elysia\'s hand.
"Uhm, are any of you feeling hungry? Should we buy some food from a nearby restaurant before going to that sacred tree?" Sylvia stopped in her tracks while rubbing her tummy.
"Sure, let\'s get some food for our picnic. Wait, it\'s an outdoor dinner." Elysia nodded in agreement. She looked left and right to find a suitable restaurant for it.
"Then let\'s go to the classy restaurant over there! There\'s also a shop next door that looks interesting. I\'d also like to buy some souvenirs. Will you come with me?" Sylvia pointed to a large restaurant enthusiastically. Although, her main goal was a large shop next to that place.
Elysia and the girls looked at each other. None of them objected, including the divine beings. Therefore, Sylvia walked in front to guide everyone to the restaurant.
"Welcome, oh my..." A sexy elf greeted the guests warmly, but the new guests surprised her because they weren\'t elves.
"Sshh, why are you surprised, miss? We\'re just guests who came from far away and just here to buy some dishes." Sylvia pressed her finger to her lips while looking left and right. Her group was only shrouded in anti-noticeable disguise magic, and she didn\'t want this elf lady to make them attract everyone\'s attention.
"O-oh~" The waitress just nodded in understanding.
"Good, we won\'t linger. Please prepare a hundred of your best dishes to take home. We\'ll be waiting at the souvenir shop next door. Give me the fees to be paid there. Do you understand?" Sylvia raised her finger for attention.
The elf waitress just nodded in understanding and immediately carried out the request. Sylvia smirked and led everyone to the next-door shop with a happy heart.
Like what she predicted, if Elysia agreed, everyone would come with her.
"Elven dresses, I\'m coming~" Sylvia muttered under her breath as she entered that fancy store.
