Elysia wore her shrine priestess robe, and she had to appear as Miko. Luna accompanied her by her side as that morning, the team led by Lucius and Bai Yuchen, and also the Qinlan Sect’s envoys led by Zhuan i wished to seek her guidance. Because the matter wasn’t that simple, dea, Lucius’ teacher, also ca to the Sacred Mountain’s peak.
"..." Elysia ca out of the sacred shrine. She was stunned to see so cats and cubs, the personnel of Vanessa’s Fervent Feline Army, hanging between the trees in their small form. They were like a group of spiders, passing through obstacles without breaking the spider webs.
"Ranee, thank you for training their agility for the past few days." Vanessa waved her hand to the nearby spider queen.
"It’s my pleasure, Lady Vanessa. They are the adorable creatures. It’s only been a few days, and they can move nimbly without breaking my spider webs now." Ranee bowed slightly, feeling flattered.
Seeing their lady boss paying them a visit, the cats and cubs of the Fervent Feline Army imdiately lined up into a neat formation like trained feline soldiers.
"I can see your significant progress during the last few days. I think you might be ready for the extre training specifically prepared for you. Mm, let’s hold it next week." Vanessa nodded in satisfaction at her feline army.
"ow!" The Fervent Feline Army consisting of more than a hundred personnel owed in reply, expressing their anticipation and determination to beco the apex predator like their lady boss.
"I got so souvenirs for you all." Vanessa distributed so snacks to everyone, including Ranee.
"Priestess Miko, they are waiting in the guest pavilion." Alicia ca to report it.
"Mm, thank you, Alicia. Your expression is beaming with success. Did your magic research produce the results you expected?" Elysia nodded in reply, curious about the results of the Sanguine Occult’s recent research.
"Mm, yes! I’m here to report about our recent discovery." Alicia was beaming with joy and pride, eager to report it right away, but she had to let dea and the disciples report their situation to Priestess Miko first.
"You have our full support. Under the Sacred Sakura Goddess’ guidance, the Sanguine Occult shall put the magic developnt forward to the brighter future." Elysia patted Alicia’s shoulder.
"Under the Sacred Sakura Goddess’ guidance." Alicia felt honored to receive the appreciation, full support, and trust. Every day was like a blessing because their life, the witches, in this world was akin to a paradise they desperately longed for in their previous world.
"You’re doing well. I’d also like to see your new magic discoveries." Luna walked beside Alicia, whispering with a curious smile.
"Feel free to visit our Sanguine Occult’s headquarters, Lady Luna. We recently built a new magic research lab, and our new discovery might surprise you." Alicia replied with a proud smile.

A group of disciples and envoys already awaited the Sacred Sakura Saintess at the guest pavilion. As the Sacred Sakura Saintess gracefully erged from the sacred shrine to et their request, her ethereal beauty imdiately captured the attention of all present.
Draped in a flowing priestess outfit of white and red, the simplicity sohow highlighted her grace to a higher height. Her long, silken hair cascaded down her back, glistening in the soft morning sunlight. Her eyes were filled with wisdom and compassion and radiated a calming yet authoritative aura.
The disciples and envoys regained their composure once the Sacred Sakura Saintess already arrived before them. They knelt in reverence, awestruck by her presence.
"Priestess Miko, we’re here to seek your guidance." dea addressed, stating the gathering’s purpose. Her voice was gentle yet firm, carrying the weight of deep respect and reverence.
"Raise your head and take a seat. I’ve heard about it, but I wish to hear the situation in more detail." Elysia sat on the master’s seat, beckoning everyone to sit down.
"..." Lucius and Bai Yuchen were still stunned by Priestess Miko’s ethereal grace. Her beauty was holy and angelic without doubt, but they felt her presence was more divine than ever. It took them several seconds to regain their composure and be seated.
"..." Zhuan i and Zhao Yuqi felt a bit nervous. It wasn’t their first ti eting with Sacred Sakura Saintess, but they still felt Priestess Miko’s presence was overbearing.
After that, dea brought up the primary matter, and then Lucius and Bai Yuchen reported the situation. They took turns explaining the details. It revolved around the Flower Gate Sect and their suspicions about the great evil that might be taking root there.
Elysia listened to the reports with a thoughtful but serene expression.
Before she offered her guidance, she opened her Lost Prayer Grimoire. She shared the information with a solemn tone. "The divine will uncovered its revelation to us. The Flower Gate Sect has beco a secret nest for a naless evil root, and it has already reached its adolescence stage."
With a hand placed over her heart, Elysia spoke more about the evil that threatened to awaken in more detail. She also shared the sacred knowledge needed to confront it.
"It’s a young man. He inherited the demonic power that would endanger the world once he reached adulthood. We shall dispatch the Guardian of Dream to collect the necessary information. Please join the Demon Slayer Unit if you wish to participate in the great evil’s seed extermination quest." Elysia put her hands together as she concluded the discussion.
"Thank you for your enlightennt and guidance, Sacred Sakura Saintess. We shall follow your arrangents to join the Demon Slayer Unit to exterminate this great evil’s seed." Lucius put his hand to his chest in a knight salute.
dea and Bai Yuchen also conveyed their gratitude and respect. After that, Elysia left the guest pavilion.
"Erm, why do they use different pronouns? It’s Sacred Sakura Saintess, and Sacred Priestess, and then Priestess Miko." Zhao Yuqi whispered softly to her pri disciple.
"I guess it depends on our status. If it’s us, we should call her Sacred Sakura Saintess. Only the elders, higher-ups, and affiliated leaders are allowed to call her Priestess Miko." Zhuan i covered her mouth and explained in a whisper as well.
"Apprentice, we’ll be dealing with a very bad demon this ti. I’ll go with my hunter squad too." dea pumped her fists, ready for action.
"No, master. I think this doesn’t require the senior team to get involved. It’s okay just for us, the disciples to handle it. We’ll be assisted by the Guardian of Dream as well." Lucius politely refused.
Honestly, if he could choose, he would be at ease if his master would remain in the Sacred Sakura, their safe haven. He already lost her once, and he would never allow anything to hurt her ever again.
"Well, now you want to manage your teacher? Priestess Miko has already bestowed us with her wisdom. If I desire to participate, then I’ll be there to participate. I’ll call my hunter squad mbers. Wait a mont, and we can depart right away." dea waved her hand with a wink. She contacted her fellow mages right away.
"Hmm... this will be interesting. I had expected it. Perhaps, I have an unawakened prophecy skill unknowingly." Bai Yuchen looked at his hands, feeling that he might still have a lot of unawakened potential and talents.

While the Elysium mbers used their ti to relax and rest in the Sacred Mountain, whether it was supervising their respective personal forces or just resting while waiting for the afternoon to arrive, Elysia called Ella, Morfina, and Yae specifically as she wished to inquire sothing.
Alicia invited her for a quick visit to Sanguine Occult’s headquarters, and she made an evening appointnt. Alicia then left the sacred shrine.
"Ella, may I inquire about your earliest journey in the Caelum World? How did you beco the high priestess, known as the Divine Prophet?" Elysia straightened her back and put her hands on the table.
She could probe it directly from Ella’s mind through their spiritual connection, but she wished to hear it from Ella’s mouth directly.
"I am very lucky to find many good followers to serve the Supre Goddess. A-aahh~ under the grace of our Almighty Supre Goddess of Creation, the divinity above all, Goddess Elysia is only and the only one who deserves to be called the true Goddess. She is here, among us, her believers. Under her light and guidance, we ford a powerful faction known as the Elysion Church--" Ella initially responded calmly, but the following sentences beca a long confession from a devout believer in describing her glorious holy journey to build the church for her Goddess.
"W-what?" Luna blinked her eyes in shock, glancing at her assistant, Yusagi, with an incredulous expression. Ella suddenly switched into an extremist, desiring appreciation and recognition from Elysia as if everything was for Elysia’s sake.
"Alright, take a breather and calm down. I’ve received the glory you brought upon us. We’re proud of you, Ella." Elysia held Ella’s hand and gently rubbed Ella’s back.
"Ah-uuh, please pardon , my Goddess." Ella took a breather. She felt a little embarrassed, but she did feel proud and honored to recall it. She did everything to glorify her Goddess like what a faithful follower should do.
With the benevolent, powerful Goddess worthy of the most sincere faith, followers would obviously co from everywhere to worship the Supre Goddess. Even so Deities and Demi-Gods fell to her enlightennt and sermons, abandoning everything to convert into the Elysion Church’s mbers.
"Alright, Morfi, Yae, please share your initial journey before you ford the El-Fai rchant Fleet. I believe you haven’t shared the story about it yet." Elysia rubbed Ella’s head and turned to the nearby noble elf and fairy.
