BXBX NOVEL Chapter 916 Visiting The Reinhard Clan
\'No, Ai. Do you think I\'m asking a little too much? I should be asking all of you to please lend me your strength, but I said please entrust your fate and lives to me.\' Elysia suddenly asked. She felt that her previous speech was a little exaggerated, but everyone fortunately agreed.
\'Hmm, if you put it that way, everyone would agree without thinking. However, your words are the same as wishing our lives to serve you. Fortuna said that our current group is Elysia\'s pantheon. This looks like it\'s going to be fun!\' Ai felt a bit excited when she tried to imagine their plans.
\'I hope my approach is correct and doesn\'t disappoint everyone. What do you think?\' Elysia wanted to know what Ai was thinking.
\'Ely, your approach is correct. You try to make those who are unsure and hesitant to back down, but your friends don\'t want to leave you to bear the burden alone. Especially because of that prophecy. If you fail, then all will be lost. That\'s why they want to fight alongside you with everything they have. They will hand over everything for you if you ask them.\' Ai looked at Elysia\'s face with a tender gaze.
\'And, being yourself is your charm. No one is perfect, not even the divine. It\'s fine if you sometimes feel confused or lost. We will find the path together.\' Ai conveyed her opinion frankly.
\'Um, thank you. I finally understand your point of view. I will fight with everyone. We will save the world, then live in a pleasant paradise~\' Elysia put her hands together happily.
\'I feel kind of sorry for Ella. I heard that she is a loyal follower of the Goddess of Blessings. However, she looks rejected and ignored during the ritual. She has no other choice but to become your loyal follower. Are you okay with that, Ely?\' Ai heaved a subtle sigh.
\'...\' Elysia was silent for a moment and intertwined her fingers.
\'It felt a bit sad that Ella had me as her sole escape. However, Helen had already talked to me about it, though not the full detailed story. She asked me to let Ella be my angel because she no longer wants one. Ella\'s willpower is strong enough for spirit-bonding, but not any stronger than the others.\'
\'Helen is your contracted Goddess, so Ella should understand that she will be a follower of several Goddesses at once with you as the primary order. She should understand that and her determination and sincerity will develop with time.\' Ai put her hand to her chin and nodded.
\'Hehe, I remember about our first meeting. You initially made me your subordinate, namely slave. Then, I became your friend, then sister. At first, our trust was just a them strangers trying to take advantage of each other, but now you can\'t live without me~\' Elysia chuckled softly.
\'Wha- who? Who said I couldn\'t live without you?\' Ai was shocked and started to blush a little.
\'Am I wrong?\' Elysia stared at the sky for a while, then muttered softly. \'I\'m weak and can\'t live without you either. So, don\'t leave me or I will cry.\'
\'\'Perhaps you are right. I will always be with you. No need to worry.\' Ai finally wasn\'t ashamed to admit it since it was true. Elysia said something frankly, so she would look like a lousy big sister if she denied it.
"We have arrived." Elena announced when she saw the entrance to the Reinhard Clan\'s main mansion.
"Hmm?" Elysia noticed the presence of a familiar female knight from the line of people who would welcome her entourage. Rosie was there, still wearing full knight armor as if she had just returned from the battlefield.
Her previous mutterings came true, even though Fran wasn\'t there. However, she wondered what kind of response Rosie would give to see there were two Elysias.
\'So, she is Alisha\'s family. That one is her big sister?\' Ai pointed at Rosie and asked Elysia.
\'Yes, but the other core family members seem unable to attend due to their own concerns.\' Elysia gave her confirmation.
After the carriages stopped, the holy knights opened the door and formed a formation to escort the distinguished presences.
"Gulp..." The members of the Reinhard Clan felt a bit nervous upon seeing the Holy Chruch come to their residence because there were hardly any influential people around to greet them right now.
The notification was also quite sudden, but luckily, their oldest princess wasn\'t too far from the city at the current moment. So she could return on time for this.
"Phew..." Rosie breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the Holy Pope get off the carriage. Honestly, she had no idea why Holy Chruch suddenly came to her clan\'s residence on an official visit. Her parents, grandfather, and brother weren\'t around either, so she had to be responsible for this.
She stepped forward to give a greeting as a representative, but she soon widened her eyes at everyone who came after the Holy Pope.
They were the Goddesses, the divine group, including Elysia and friends. Yet, she saw there were two Elysias walking side by side.
"E-eh? Are my eyes deceiving me? I see there are two Elysias..." Rosie took a handkerchief and rubbed her eyes.
Unfortunately, there were indeed two Elysias. Rosie could see her little sister\'s shadow from both of them. The Elysia case was no longer an issue, but what about the other? Perhaps-
Rosie\'s lips trembled, and she stared as if she couldn\'t believe what she saw. Even so, she walked closer subconsciously and asked. "Lisha?"
"Good afternoon, Senior Rosie. I am Ai, Elysia\'s sworn sister." Ai introduced herself.
"Ah, oh... I am Rosie Reinhard, pleased to meet you. Nice to see you all well. May I know the purpose of your official arrival?" Rosie suddenly became lethargic and a little sad.
"Hehe, we just wanted to visit, but Ella\'s grandfather insisted on coming along, and the entourage became big when everyone else wanted to come too. I hope we don\'t disturb you, Senior Rosie." Elena replied politely, just like Elysia usually did.
"Uhh, I\'m panicking because I thought this was an official visit, Ely." Rosie sighed and put her hand to her forehead.
"Hahaha, how can I let the divine group leave in the city unaccompanied on your visit." Alexander laughed dryly.
"Hello, Senior Rosie. Is everyone well on your side?" Evelyn greeted her senior with a hand wave.
"Everything is fine on our side. It\'s just a lot of work due to the chaos here and there. My grandfather will be here in about an hour. Allow me to accompany you." Rosie put her hand on her upper chest.
"Thank you. Would you like to follow us for a little outing?" Elena asked with a sweet smile.
"Um, sure. My pleasure." Rosie agreed without needing to know the details. She then left with the divine group on foot.
"I was previously from Rorora City. I just arrived and was about to jump into battle, but the monsters had already vanished. I heard rumors about the divine group\'s help. Thank you for your quick reinforcement assistance, many people have been saved because of it." Rosie expressed her gratitude sincerely.
"Mm, it was our group led by Fortuna. However, Gio was the one who eliminated the majority of the monsters." Ai pointed her palm to the girls behind her.
"Rawr!" Gio roared with pride.
"..." Elysia just walked with the other Goddesses in silence. She has already put in the disguise barrier. Their presence wouldn\'t attract the attention of those around them, but the group of holy knights and the Holy Pope sure did attract many pairs of eyes.
Moments later, they arrived at their destination. Rosie was surprised because the place they were going was a cemetery.
"..." Elena and Ai put flowers on Alisha\'s grave before burning incense to pay respects to the dead. The others just stood at the back, putting their hands together as if sending a prayer.
\'Ely, Alisha is dead. The current us are Elysia and Ai. Also, Elena.\' Ai sent out telepathy in her deep murmur.
\'Un.\' Elysia confirmed with a short reply.
\'Fufu, you adding me is like a bonus. This big sister is feeling sad.\' Elena replied in a sad tone.
\'...\' Ai chose not to respond because Elena was unbeatable.
"Eh, uh. Phew..." Rosie rummaged through her Space Bag. She brought out flowers and incenses. She also made pilgrimages to her family members who had died, not only her little sister Alisha.
"Rosie, if Alisha is still around maybe we can become triple sisters. I don\'t mean to bring old wounds to you, but I want to say something important." Elena spoke with a solemn expression.
"!?" Rosie gulped her saliva. The change in Elysia\'s expression and intonation made her suddenly nervous.
"Currently, there are several monster\'s avatars running around with a form resembling us. They cloned me and created a terror of destruction. Ai and I will stay with the Goddesses. Please always carry this with you wherever you go. We will know if you are in any danger ." Elena handed over a protective talisman to Rosie.
"What? You mean?" Rosie widened her eyes in surprise.
"If you see someone who resembles us recently, then it\'s a monster imitating my appearance. They are the dangerous Ruvoid God\'s avatars." Elena gave Rosie a warning because she thought it was necessary. Rosie needed additional protection at a request from Elysia.
"I can see that the graves of Emperors have been dug up. Their remains have been stolen by the wicked. We suspect it is the work of the Ruvoid God\'s avatars. Please be careful." Elena spoke in a whisper-like voice.
