"Are you sure about this?" Sylvia looked back, letting the shrine maiden do as one pleased with her body.
"Mm, yes. Thank you for being so cooperative." Miko asured Sylvia’s body.
"Hm, alright. Please be gentle. That thing is hard and cold..." Sylvia gulped her saliva sowhat nervously.
"It’s actually warm inside." Miko then helped Sylvia to wear the newly adjusted dark knight armor.
"..." Evelyn was speechless. If she didn’t know what was happening, it might cause a misunderstanding.
Ely, or now Miko, asked Sylvia for help in pretending to be the Young Demon God. Sylvia didn’t need to do anything aningful as the Young Demon God. Only the Young Demon God’s presence was necessary.
"Do I need to wear this voice-changing mask?" Sylvia sniffed the mask curiously. It might have been worn by Miko’s disciple, and she didn’t want it if so.
"That’s not a voice-changing mask, but a respirator." Miko patted her hand as she finished helping Sylvia put on the armor.
"Lend your respirator mask. I don’t want this." Sylvia returned the respirator.
"Uhm, alright... everything has been properly sanitized, though?" Miko exchanged the respirator for another one.
"Good." Sylvia received another respirator from Miko’s hand. Its aura slled like Elysia, and she liked it.
After putting on the respirator and dark knight helt, she activated several artifacts given by Miko to exude the Young Demon God’s aura and sense of presence.
"It’s perfect. However, is this the last ti for Young Demon God’s career?"
"Yes, that is to tie up the loose ends. Young Demon God will ascend to the upper world, and Ancient Night Demon must know that."
"Hmm~ you feel a bit guilty about this identity. Very well, I shall wipe your ass and clean the ss."
"It’s not that bad. You don’t need to wipe my, my- uh? The phrasing, please!"
"Fufu~"
Sylvia was joking around and tried to tease Miko.
"Hey, Eve. Why are you so quiet?" Sylvia ca to her friend’s side, leaning on Evelyn’s shoulder.
"Uh, you’re a bit heavy. Don’t lean on . I’m checking the Elysium Group Chat. So of our friends are having problems, and soone is still missing." Evelyn pushed Sylvia’s arm down from her shoulders.
"It’s about Dory, right? Luna and her army are looking for our rmaid friend. Her status is yellow, not red or black. She should still be fine. Maybe she was affected by a particular drug and manipulation magic like a few months ago?" Sylvia spoke as if she was concerned, but she actually wasn’t that worried.
"Hmm..." Evelyn responded to several chats and closed the group chat before her vision. She looked at Miko and spoke in a caring tone. "Miko, is our Goddess Master still suffering from sothing crucial?"
"Our Goddess Master just needs more ti to fully recover. She is bearing the burden of another six Goddesses, you see... Mama Elysia is still in the partial God Mode Fusion state. She needs to fully recover from any backlashes before deactivating the fusion completely. In the anti, she can’t use her power yet." Miko stared out the window.
Even though her mother’s spiritual backlashes weren’t too severe, she was still anxious about her mother’s situation.
"I see..." Evelyn also looked out the window but soon put her focus back on Miko. "Then, do you know about the matter that awaits us? You sotis check your grimoire to get so information, right? Could you please open it and find out what might await?"
"That’s right... This grimoire was given by He-Dao. As the gift of Heaven, we might find out what Heaven has planned for us." Miko dropped her fist onto her open palm.
She summoned her Lost Prayer but was taken aback by the quest page.
[Please ask the Supre Goddess of Mysterious Origin to open the Heavenly Grimoire - Sacred Heaven and form a contract with it] [Reward: Heaven’s support]
[The Divine World wished to form a bridge under the laws of the Supre Goddess of Mysterious Origin. Please ask her to activate the crystalline altar with the manifestation crystal cores] [Reward: The bridge to the Divine World]
[Please help the Supre Goddess of Mysterious Origin speedy recovery] [Reward: The Supre Goddess of Mysterious Origin recovers faster than expected]
"..." Miko was speechless. The Heaven’s will and those Agents blatantly told her they held a hidden agenda for her mother.
She scrolled down the list and found the first ten quests were related to her mother. As for the rest, she could ignore them for now because she didn’t intend to complete any quests anyti soon despite the tempting rewards.
"I see... So he gave two grimoires: one for and the other for Mama Elysia. They had planned it from the start, huh..." Miko clenched her fist.
She initially felt grateful to He-Dao and his accomplices because of their help. Nevertheless, she needed to be more wary of them and whatever they wanted from her family.
"What did you find?" Sylvia took a closer look at the grimoire from behind. Unfortunately, she could see nothing but the blank paper.
At that mont, Zera and Elysia had just exited the house. Yuuki followed closely behind. The sight might resemble a mother with her baby and their caretaker.
Miko noticed it and rushed to et her mother. "I need to tell Mama Elysia about this."
Sylvia and Evelyn looked at each other before quickly following Miko.
It was still so early in the morning. Elysia recovered a lot, and she could already use a little of her power, thanks to her Goddess sisters.
They were currently resting in her soul realm, including her divine avatar. After all, it was pretty tiring after focusing all night on speeding up her recovery.
Today was an event where many guests would co to visit. Regardless of their reason, it was easy to tell the guests also ca with various other intentions.
Zera complied with her request to oversee the guests from the side. That was why they held a small picnic under the Sacred Sakura Tree.
"You’re a great help, but that’s enough, Sakura. You also need so rest." Elysia grasped Sakura with both hands.
"Rua." Sakura rubbed her eyes. She nodded, then floated into the trunk of the Sacred Sakura Tree, her real body.
Miko looked right and left. Her disciples were nowhere to be seen. Most of her disciples were busy arranging the guests outside. It was still so early in the morning, and those on duty at the shrine abode had not yet woken up.
She then ran to her mother. "Mama Elysia."
"Slow down." Zera raised her hand.
"Oh, okay." Miko nodded in understanding. She then walked over and sat next to Zera, showing her grimoire quest page to her mother. "Mama Elysia, look what I found."
"???" Zera and Yuuki glanced at the grimoire but only found the blank paper.
"Hmm? Do they want to open the other grimoire and form a bond with it? So, that’s why they didn’t say anything to ... It’s not because they didn’t do it, but they couldn’t do it." Elysia blinked her eyes in astonishnt.
"Yeah, the other grimoire never listened to . It was apparently reserved just for you. No, all God-tier items are unruly and won’t listen to . Celestia is so rebellious too." Miko expressed so of her complaints with a pitiful gaze.
"Mm, they have their own standards and principles. It was also difficult for back then. They imdiately beca obedient children once they recognized my power and potential. Although not all of them are mine... But~ hehe, their previous duties were to ensure your safety and help you out in ergencies. That’s why they won’t obey other orders." Elysia gave Miko a good head pat.
"Oh, so they have priorities. Will they listen to now?" Miko’s eyes glistened upon that realization.
"Please treat them with care, but don’t force your will on them if they don’t want to obey."
"Even though I am your daughter and avatar, mama?"
"They also have personality and spirit within them. Just like a living artifact, but more humane."
"Mm, Miko undestands~"
"Good child."
Miko brought her face closer and rubbed her cheek to her mother’s tender baby cheek. She then received another good head pat.
"..." The ones who witnessed that warm scene felt a bit complicated. It might sound like a normal mother-daughter conversation. But! A cute baby played the role of mother here, and the lovely girl was the daughter.
"Celestia? Where is she?" Zera recalled sothing and stretched out her hand as if asking Celestia to be handed over to her.
"Celestia is in my inner space. Wait, where is she now?" Miko tried to search for Celestia in her inner space and subspace.
However, she couldn’t find that rebellious sword anywhere. She also couldn’t find many God-tier items that were supposed to be there.
"Several items and weapons returned to storage space, the inner space, and subspace’s origin. Celestia, listen to and co out." Elysia summoned Celestia out.
A dark sword handle popped out from her chest. However, the sword was too big and long for her to pull it out.
Thus, Miko had to stand up and pull that two-ter sword out. After that, she handed Celestia over to Zera.
"You’ve caused a lot of trouble?" Zera asked, but it sounded like a statent and an accusation instead.
"..." Celestia responded with nothing, but it felt a bit nervous and scared.
"No need to be scared. You did pretty well." Zera stroked the sword’s handle to its sheath. She then leaned it next to her.
Elysia smiled, seeing that. She then summoned the Sacred Heaven. The pure white grimoire with several blue diamond runes and a six-winged angel symbol on its cover. It was one of the two grimoires this world’s Heavenly Dao gave.
