Chapter 457: The Compensation
It was like an upside-down waterfall. A pillar of light with a one-ter diater rose to the ceiling with Alie at its center. A semi-transparent black figure was slowly pulled out from Alie's body.
'Yatta, I did it!' Elena cheered in mind. She knew that she got a smile from Elysia.
"Ah!!!" The evil spirit could only scream in pain as he was forcefully pulled and dragged into the mid-air.
'Hehe, when it cos to things like this, it's an easy thing. Eh, hold on...' Elena felt proud of her achievent for successfully pulling out the evil spirit. However, she raised her eyebrows to see that the evil spirit looked more like a man than a woman.
"Hm, it turns out you are a male evil spirit. I thought you were a woman." Elena spoke as if nothing to worry about. She erected a tube-like layered barrier around the crystal pyramid to seal any curse or evil energy from spreading.
"Aaah! Curse you, curse you!" The evil spirit could only scream hysterically with its creepy and hoarse voice. He felt like he was being ripped apart and skinned alive.
"No, your curse ans nothing to . It's a high-level light elent holy magic. The curse energy within your body is tornting you from within right now. I don't know why you have the power of accursed monsters, but this is the end for you." Elena swung her arm in a light motion.
"Keke, I don't want to be killed with holy magic, even if it's at the divine-level. Divine Lord Accursa will avenge my death! It's only a mont, soon this world will fall into apocalypse! Hahaha!" The evil spirit stared at his disintegrated hands and feet.
He put the rest of his hands together. A shockwave suddenly blew his entire existence into the nothingness before the divine-level magic could destroy him entirely.
*Boom!*
A small explosion occurred within the barrier. The evil spirit disappeared from the world just like that due to suicide.
"Divine Lord Accursa?" Rhea muttered subtly with a frown.
"Huff, that evil spirit decided to commit suicide, huh..." Elena confird that the evil spirit had wholly disappeared.
Then, she focused on the remnants of the curse and the evil energy in the barrier.
*Snap*
Elena snapped her fingers. A dark golden fla instantly blazed as if to burn anything within the tube-like barrier.
"The Goddess of Light, why!?" Arthur scread in panic. He thought that his wife was being burned alive.
"No need to worry, Emperor of Aeddoterra. I just burned all that curse and evil energy. Your wife won't be able to co back with a contaminated body like that. We just need to purify the body and everything will be fine. " Elena answered without turning her head.
It was like the most effective pacifier of an anxious heart. Arthur was instantly relieved when he realized that his wife's body was not hurt in the slightest despite being in the middle of the golden flas. Well, only a bit of red bruises on the cheeks due to the previous double slap.
After the blackish energy mist dissipated, Elena extinguished her golden flas and revoked the tube-like barrier.
"Ely, we just need to do the finishing touches and it's over. Help with this. To everyone, please don't interrupt our concentration for any reason." Elena walked closer to the sealed woman.
"En." Elysia just obeyed like a good disciple.
When they arrived right in front of Alie's dead-like body, Elysia and Elena began to eradicate any residual curse energy that contaminated Alie's body.
It took a little longer than five minutes. Still, everyone just waited for the result in silence as if a slight sound could disturb the Goddess of Light and Elysia.
'Lady Alie, Queen Alie, can you hear my voice? The evil spirit is gone and you are free from its shackles. We will help synchronize your spirit with your body. Are you-' Elysia gave a notification to Alie's spirit via telepathy. However, she couldn't finish her sentence because Alie cut her off with a hysterical cry.
"Sob, sob... No, no, I don't deserve to go back! I'm dirty and contaminated. My whole body and spirit have been tainted. I don't deserve to live. I can't bear to see my husband again. Sob, sob." Alie was crying and scared at the sa ti. She curled up to make herself like a ball.
'What do you an by that, Lady Alie? You don't want to return to your body? After all the effort your husband has put in the last thirty-six years? Don't you want to see your son, Theo? He has beco a knight who is not inferior to his father.' Elysia didn't understand what Alie was talking about. She was just trying to calm the grieving spirit.
"Theo? Theo... My son, our child..." Alie muttered under her breath and lifted her head. He pondered with a deep longing in her eyes.
'You don't need to worry because your body, spirit, and soul have been purified from any curse or evil energy. You are not dirty or contaminated. Please don't worry.' Elysia added her reassurance in a soft tone.
"Huh? That, really? But, that's not-" Alie felt a little surprised. She wanted to say sothing, but the girl's voice interrupted her.
'It would be risky if we left you in this dangerous state any longer. We will sync your spirit to your body now. Please prepare yourself for the unexpected.' Elysia just conveyed her purpose without needing to hear any answer.
She was not yet fully adept at playing with the affairs of spirit and soul. She was afraid that the risk would be greater if she waited longer to deal with such a sensitive yet delicate matter.
"Ah." Alie could only see the void because the girl's voice suddenly disappeared. Only silence surrounded him.
Just as she was about to open her mouth, the golden bubble suddenly faded away. She seed to be sucked in and thrown into an unknown place without being able to do anything. Shouting was even the impossible thing to do in that situation.
anwhile, Elysia wiped her sweat after she finished synchronizing Alie's spirit to her body. It was a matter that required great care, and she felt a little tired every ti she had to deal with such a thing.
Rhea took out a handkerchief to help wipe Elysia's sweat. Then, she took out another handkerchief for Elena, but the latter didn't sweat at all. Thus, she simply put the second handkerchief into her pocket again.
"Hehe, thank you very much." Elysia felt happy to be given such treatnt. Rhea just smiled brightly in return.
'Did you make it, Ely? This woman's body is already breathing, but she has not given any sign of waking up.' Elena looked at Alie with a bit of surprise.
'Uh? If we look at how the spirit and soul work, I think we have succeeded in synchronizing Lady Alie's spirit with her body, Sister Elena. Let's just wait a few minutes. But, hold on a mont, allow to confirm this with Rhea.' Elysia was quite confident that it had worked because she had done her best.
She then imdiately asked Rhea via telepathy to make sure everything was running smoothly or not.
'You've done your best, Master Elysia. Let's wait a few minutes to see the result. As far as I can see, this woman's mortal body is already in a good situation.' Rhea checked Alie's entire body one more ti and nodded confidently.
'I see, then, let's leave the rest to Emperor Arthur.' Elysia also tried to check once again with her advanced perception and her sacred eyes. She couldn't see any flaws or defects. So, everything was perfect, right?
After that, she stood up and shared so things with Elena.
'En.' Rhea no longer paid her attention to the sealed woman. She was just looking for a comfortable position in Elysia's arms.
Elena nodded and stood up. She looked at Arthur with an aloof and noble expression. "We have done our best. Your wife's spirit is already in her body without any contamination with curses or evil energy anymore. She is now unconscious and we will leave the rest to you."
"Thank you, thank you very much for your help, the Goddess of Light, Elysia." Arthur gave a bow of respect as if he had forgotten that he was an Emperor.
He couldn't hide the happiness that welled up in his heart. A few tears popped out at the corners of his eyes because of emotion. But he imdiately wiped his tears away.
"Raise your head, Emperor of Aeddoterra. I'm feeling tired. That's all from , bye." Elena turned around after giving Elysia a signal. She seed to want to just leave without asking for paynt for the earlier divine service.
However, Arthur knew that the previous agreent needed to be fulfilled. He imdiately raised his head. "Wait a minute, the Goddess of Light. Please accept these two black boxes as a token of my gratitude. Although it's not much, I hope that all of this can help restore your divine magic energy to a better state."
"Hmm?" Elena turned around again and looked at what Arthur was about to hand over to her. "What did you put in the two black boxes? Three black space bags in each box?"
"One box contains a ton of high-level resources with ten percent special items to help restore magic energy and effective magic circuit treatnt. The other one is resources for cultivating strength and abilities, in equal quantities. Please accept this." Arthur explained by showing the contents of each box to the Goddess of Light.
