Chapter 876 Swimming Pool and Barbecue
“We’re finally back... The meeting was a bit boring, I must say. I thought that the pirate-looking man would challenge us to the end, but he knows where his place is...” Sylvia did a little stretching when they arrived at Erina’s penthouse.
“Yeah, and Xentia almost ruined the entire game. If Ely fails to stop her in time and her cannon is fired, then the result will be really grim.” Darkness spread her arms and shook her head.
“Sowwy... Xentia feels angry because that pirate guy wants to manipulate Xentia.” Xentia looked down. She felt guilty about it, but she wasn’t wrong there.
“It’s okay. No one blames you.” Rhea gives Xentia a head pat.
“However, why are we bringing this bird with us? I thought you were telling us to be on the lookout for her, Lady Fortuna?” Lynn pointed to a particular raven bird near them.
“I changed my mind. I intend to give her an eye-opener. She will work for me.” Fortuna made a deal with Victorious, and she would do something to this bird for the common good.
“Yeah, the deal!” Victorious nodded in agreement.
“Huh!? Did you just scammed her into a contract deal?” Darkness gasped. She then whispered to the raven. “You’re VIctorious, right? I’m warning you that this woman is actually incredibly cunning.”
“What?” Victorious was shocked.
“Don’t listen to her. She is just a lazy sucubus.” Fortuna pushed Darkness away from Victorious.
“Hey, I’ve reminded you the umpteenth time that I’m not a sucubus!” Darkness growled in annoyance.
“Well, you can do anything as long as it doesn’t cause any harm. You still remember your duties and responsibilities, don’t you?” Lifa doesn’t mind the new arrangement for the Demi-God spirit bird.
“That, of course. She will help me to look after Erina for you. Erina will be faced with a lot of problems in the future because she is Elysia’s friend. Her decision to step back from the public figure is right as we can do things more freely.” Fortuna explained a little summary of her plan.
After that, she approached Elysia and gave Elysia a warm hug and a head pat. “Ah, why do all of you have the heart to put such responsibility only on this lovely girl. Those scheming humans will surely want a share of her to bridge a relationship with the Guardian of Dream.”
“Hmm?” Elysia felt a little confused, but she made no attempt to justify that statement.
“That was Elysia’s plan. If those people dare to do silly things to Erina or Elysia, then it will be a valuable lesson for our girls. They will see how rotten a human heart can be.” Lifa gave Elysia a head pat too.
She then took out a piece of paper and handed it to Fortuna. “This is a list of the materials and items we need. Can you prepare this before sunrise?”
“Hm? It’s easy at this rate. The Heaven Realm has everything you could possibly need, and-” Fortuna had just received the paper and felt it was an easy thing to complete. Yet, that piece of paper suddenly unfolded and became a long list that even touched the floor.
“That’s easy, right? We’re counting on you for this.” Lifa put her hand on Fortuna’s shoulder while smiling faintly.
“Uh-huh, I’ll try my best. However, if everything has to be prepared by tomorrow morning, it’s a bit...” Fortuna ran a hand through her hair nervously. Lady Tifa was really something sometimes. “Ugh, whatever the outcome, I’ll be back in fourteen hours. Make sure you don’t leave before I come back!”
Fortuna then said goodbye to everyone before taking Darkness and Victorious away to the Heaven Realm.
“They just left. Want to have lunch first before preparing for our return?” Elysia stared at the sky for a moment, then faced her friends.
“Ooh!” The invitation received a positive response from almost everyone.
“Where are you going? You don’t want lunch?” Nell asked as Xero was about to enter the room.
“I’ll pass. I need some full rest.” Xero raised his hand and walked away.
“At least eat this first. You’ve barely eaten anything in the last few days because you’ve been meditating and practicing, right? Even if you’re frustrated, please pay attention to your body.” Nell handed Xero a large bowl of warm food. She had reserved it since breakfast.
“How did you know about that?” Xero frowned. He was sure that no one was watching him, but he was suspicious of Elysia. “Is it her?”
“Precisely. We’re still using Ely’s shared processing.” Nell shrugged.
“Well, don’t bother me after this. Just tell me when we’re leaving tomorrow morning.” Xero heaved a quiet sigh and received the food. He then went inside.
“Please use the room to the left of the stairs. It is an unlocked guest room. You can use it to rest without any disturbance.” Nell said before Xero left.
Xero responded silently but opened the room in question and entered there.
“Barbeque? Hehe, today’s weather is quite sunny and suitable for a summer event. Erina also has a swimming pool here. Want to swim while having a barbecue?” Sylvia suggested a brilliant idea.
“That’s fine if you want to swim, but you need to do something to this pool first. It’s a bit dirty because it rained a few days ago.” Vanessa pointed at the murky swimming pool.
“It’s fine, I can outsmart it. Just give me a few minutes, and we’ll have a clean pool.” Sylvia raised her finger and went to the poolside. She would do something to make her idea come true.
“...” The girls just left Sylvia there and went to Elysia. They would help with the preparation of their barbecue party.
A few moments later, Sylvia joined the party after cleaning the pool water. She took a barbecue and devoured it. “Hehe, I’m done. Hmm, what a great barbeque. Sometimes I get too comfortable because of Ely, and it might be hard to live without her.”
“You just love my cooking.” Elysia rolled her eyes.
“Hmm-mm~ Loving your cooking is the same as loving you. Now come with me to change into a swimsuit. We’re going swimming! Please invite Ai and your master as well as Ely.” Sylvia hugged Elysia from behind.
“Eh? Why do you suddenly want to swim, Sylvi?” Elysia felt a little reluctant, but Sylvia pushed her into the changing room by the pool.
“The weather’s been abysmal lately, and we rarely get sunny weather like now, thanks to the kind nature spirits. We also can’t go to the beach because of the big waves and periodic storms.” Sylvia smirked and continued to push Elysia into the dressing room with her.
“Wait, I just had one barbecue. We’re not done grilling the meat yet.” Elysia tried to give an excuse, but Sylvia was so pushy.
“It’s okay. We’re going to have a barbeque in bathing suits. The girls will grill a barbeque for you.” Sylvia pushed Elysia into the dressing room. She then raised her hand to everyone. “Yay, we’re going to enjoy a mini summer event. Ely has agreed and everyone is invited!”
After saying that, Sylvia entered the changing room and locked the door. She didn’t let Elysia go before putting on her bathing suit.
“What a hassle. Sylvi is a pervy devil. I’m sure she wants to see us in our swimsuits.” Yuuki heaved a silent sigh. Even though she said it, she was excited to think about what kind of swimsuit Elysia would wear.
“Hmm, swimming in this hot weather, we need some sun cream.” Vanessa looked up at the sky.
“No need to worry about that. I’ll make the weather a little cloudy to protect your beautiful skin from the sun.” Sora raised her barbeque stick and used it like a shaman. She made clouds gather in the sky above the penthouse, making the weather ideal for a swimming and outdoor party.
“Wonderful party! But, Xentia doesn’t have a swimsuit.” Xentia raised her hands. She anticipated the fun event.
“I have many. I will give you one that suits you very well. Here.” Rhea gave a brand new swimsuit to Xentia.
“Wow, thank you!” Xentia accepted it cheerfully and then hugged her new swimsuit with joy.
A few moments later, Sylvia came out of the dressing room wearing a black cross lace-up sexy swimsuit. “Come on, I’ve helped you put on that pretty swimsuit well.”
“Fufu~ That’s not a bad choice, Sylvi. However, I think Ely felt too embarrassed because of your swimsuit of choice.” Ai chuckled in amusement and came out in a white one-piece swimsuit.
“Uh-huh, that’s right. I’d better change into my usual bathing suit. This one is too embarrassing.” Elysia wrapped her body in a large white towel. She refused to show her swimsuit to everyone.
“That swimsuit isn’t a problem, actually. However, it’s just a matter of color, Ely.” Elena covered her mouth and came out in her favorite gold-and-white swimsuit.
“That’s still... Sylvi, you chose this for me on purpose, right?” Elysia pouted and glared at Sylvia.
“Eh-ah, I don’t know. I just took the one that suits you the best.” Sylvia turned her face the other way because she didn’t want to confess. She then took the opportunity to grab Elysia’s towel. “Hiyaa, we’re swimming now.”
“Kya!” Elysia was surprised and covered her body with both hands, but it wasn’t enough to hide anything.
“Wow...” Vanessa, Yuuki, Rhea, and the other girls immediately focused on Elysia.
Elysia actually only wore a sexy and lovely swimsuit. It was not as revealing as Sylvia’s. However, the color of that swimsuit was a bit tricking the eye like an optical illusion. It was as if Elysia wasn’t wearing anything because the swimsuit was the exact same color as Elysia’s porcelain white skin tone.
“Ugh, gorgeous.” Yuuki covered her nosebleed nose and gave a thumbs up.
“Uuu... Sylvi, I hate you.” Elysia blushed fiercely and ran to the swimming pool. She immediately threw herself in.
“Oops, looks like I’m teasing her a little too much? Ely, I’m just teasing you. Please don’t hate me.” Sylvia immediately chased after Elysia.
Everyone was amused by the scene. After that, the girls also put on their swimsuits.
Gio, Cherub, and the nature spirits watched from the side like they weren’t involved. They just enjoyed their barbeque and grilled some more for the others.
