Chapter 863 Information Gathering
“Eh? Whoa!?” Erina was surprised when she saw the shadow of a bird. She looked up and found a relatively large bird suddenly lunging at them from the sky.
“!!!” Mio imdiately stood in front of Erina.
“!?” Several experts were ready to move to intercept that large bird, but the situation suddenly beca a bit unexpected.
“Fret not. She’s friendly.” Elysia raised her palm and offered her arm for the bird to perch.
“O-oh~ Is she your pet bird, Ellie? A golden eagle?” Erina breathed a sigh of relief.
“I’m a divine owl, little girl.” Fortuna turned her head back and corrected the error.
“The speaking golden owl? Oh, she’s just like Victoria, the royal raven from England.” Erina was a bit surprised, but she rembered this was not her first experience encountering a talking bird.
“Erina, we’re going to go shopping for daily necessities before heading back to the hotel. Would you like to co with us?” Elysia rubbed the golden owl’s head.
“With pleasure, Ellie. But if you’re up for shopping, our sportcars aren’t suitable for carrying a lot of things. Shall we head back to the mansion first to get a suitable car first?” Erina felt happy to be invited.
“Good, we go now.” Elysia nodded and got into her car. She put the golden owl in the empty space between the seats.
*Vroom*
The engine started, and Elysia was about to leave the circuit. However, a black-haired boy suddenly ca over with impressive speed.
“!?” Elysia imdiately stepped on the brake pedal, making her car jerk forward slightly due to a sudden stop.
“Wha-” Fortuna lost her balance. She was thrown forward and fell at Rhea’s feet.
“Eh?” A certain blonde-haired beauty was stunned when she found her boyfriend was no longer by her side. Her boyfriend went to block Elysia’s car so suddenly, but she didn’t know why.
She gave an eye signal to her maid and imdiately followed her boyfriend.
“...” Elysia looked at the black-haired boy’s sky-blue eyes questioningly. She then pressed a button to roll down the window and asked calmly. “Hello, did sothing happen on your side, Michael-san? You suddenly appeared and we almost hit you, you know?”
“You got my na wrong, but so be it.” Michael’s lips twitched slightly. That’s not how his na is pronounced, but he doesn’t mind that. He imdiately went to the side of the car and bowed apologetically, and conveyed his purpose. “My apologies for suddenly stopping you, Elysia-sama... However, the golden owl just now is an acquaintance of mine. Would you mind letting talk to her for a mont?”
“Do you know him?” Elysia examined the boy’s face and then glanced at the golden owl stuck in Rhea’s legroom.
“...” Rhea helped the trapped golden owl and put Fortuna back in the center console.
“Phew...” Fortuna heaved a sigh of relief. She was a little dissatisfied with the sudden brake and wanted to bla that boy. Yet, she was a bit surprised when she found out that boy turned out to be her acquaintance. “Oh, it’s you. Long ti no see. You are healthy and alive, but why are you still a virgin even though you already have several girlfriends?”
“Uh-huh, I don’t know if that’s a complint or not.” Michael scratched his head with an awkward smile. “Is that event really over? How’s the situation on your side?”
“Don’t talk about that now, boy. Here, take this.” Fortuna threw a golden feather at that boy. “Elysia, we are leaving now.”
“Are you sure? Your acquaintance almost got hit just because he wanted to talk to you.” Elysia tilted her head slightly.
“That’s fine. I’ll talk to him via telepathy using that golden feather.” Fortuna nodded. She couldn’t talk about that matter in front of many unrelated people.
“All right.” Elysia raised her palm to the boy and rolled up the car window. She then left the vicinity and was followed by Erina.
Minamoto Clan’s entourage followed shortly after, and dozens of other cars followed monts later.
“Yo, I heard you are a dark horse in the Japanese young generation. May I know what business you have with Lady Elysia? I warn you, don’t ever try anything stupid with my clan’s savior.” Hong Ju-Won ca over, but his expression looked like he wanted to challenge soone rather than say hello.
“It has nothing to do with you, and I an no harm. You don’t have to worry.” Michael responded with a flat expression.
“Why did you suddenly stop Elysia-sama’s car? Are you so attracted to her kindness and beauty? Are you still not satisfied with ?” A blonde-haired beauty suddenly grabbed her boyfriend’s ear and dragged him away. She didn’t want to hear any excuses at the ti and just wanted to be unreasonable before interrogating her boyfriend.
“Ow, ooh, ouch!”
“Heh.” Hong Ju-Won smirked while watching that boy being dragged away in pain.
“Fortuna, who was that boy earlier?” Rhea asked when they had entered the highway. She made sure no one was eavesdropping on them now.
“That boy is my pioneer, the first hunter who hunted down the God Ga’s participants. However, he was injured in the battle against a powerful deity.” Fortuna heaved a subtle sigh.
“You sound disappointed. That boy seems to have a dangerous special ability. Either way, you still have to explain the situation to him, even though we’ve solved your problem. He is your subordinate too, right?” Elysia gave a kind suggestion.
“Yeah, that’s what I’m doing. He seems really worried, fufu~” Fortuna covered her face with her wing.
“Just make sure the information about us remains confidential.” Rhea gave a reminder and then gently poked Fortuna’s forehead.
anwhile, Lifa’s group had just started their mission in Arica. They divided their group into two teams. Lifa led the information-gathering mission with Ai, Sylvia, Gio, Xentia, and Lynn. Then, Nell led a technology research mission with Evelyn, Vanessa, and Yuuki.
“Oh, so it’s like this. Eve, did you take notes?” Vanessa just nodded as if she understood and peeked at Evelyn’s notes.
“Mm, I’ve recorded everything. Miss Guide, we’d like to be part of the information technology section after this. We’re curious about the science related to that field.” Evelyn raised her hand to the tour guide they had just hired.
“Oh, okay. Then please follow here.” The tour guide directed the visitors to follow her. Her custors this ti were a bit unusual and only a curious group of girls, but they paid her handsoly. So, she would definitely satisfy them with all they wanted.
When they arrived at the information technology session, the tour guide conveyed many things and explanations regarding the systems that exist on Earth today. Several screens, projections, replicas, and demonstration examples were available there. Evelyn wrote every piece of information quickly and accurately.
“Excuse , Miss Guide. Is it possible for us to buy satellites, transmitter towers, communications equipnt, and all the blueprints needed if we want to build our own communications system?” Vanessa asked with an innocent expression.
“Uh-huh?” The tour guide was astonished. It wasn’t a strange question, but she answered it anyway. “That’s possible. In this world, almost anything can be bought if the price is right.”
“Oh, so it’s like that. Then, where can we buy them?” Vanessa nodded in understanding.
“I don’t know if you’re serious or joking... Maybe you could order the satellite to SpaceX, then the towers and communications equipnt to the tech companies.” The tour guide scratched her head awkwardly.
After that, Evelyn asked the tour guide to continue their tour because she would not miss a detail in their tech visit.
At that ti, Lifa’s team had already infiltrated a state intelligence agency and accessed a lot of classified information. They hypnotized dozens of governnt elites to avoid unfavorable situations.
“Secret docunts, military aggression operations, nuclear bomb testing... Hmm, we don’t need these. We just need anything related to the Angel of Destruction Project and demonization experints. Any information about human experints is also useful. Please find the right one.” Lifa patted the head of one of the hypnotized governnt elites.
“Yes, ma’am.” The hypnotized elite saluted and quickly typed his keyboard. He searched for and accessed the desired data.
“...” Ai didn’t know what to say. She was indeed the one who had infiltrated here and brought everyone in with ease. However, that Goddess of Life beca like a demon queen controlling dozens of puppets.
“However, it’s a bit strange. I’m sure we’ve destroyed all information regarding Xentia, but how could ‘they’ know about it? Is it possible that top-secret project is actually under governnt managent? The higher-ups are also involved, eh?” Lynn put her hand to her chin as she assessed the situation.
“Demonization is no stranger to them, but the Angel of Destruction Project is the hidden experint started by that Demon God. If they are involved, then the indications are clear, hehe~ We just need to gather so evidence and supporting information to corner them. They will pay a heavy price.” Lifa covered her mouth and giggled.
“Xentia is causing trouble, but demons are bad.” Xenti looked down a little.
“No, you didn’t cause any trouble. You just have to be you and follow our activity as usual. They are just playing with fire without knowing it will burn them.” Sylvia put her hand on Xentia’s shoulder.
“Hmm.” Xentia didn’t really understand, but she knew Sylvia was comforting her.
“Xentia, you have to rember one thing. They claid that you are theirs, but your birth is the result of our combined power that you absorb. So, you have been a part of us since that fateful day. You are you, Xentia, our friend, not their tool to command. You are a Hero who serve the Light. We will make them aware of their place.” Lifa put her finger on Xentia’s chin.
“En! Those humans need to know their place!” Xentia nodded and clenched her fists.
“Wonderful. Let’s get this over real quick. After this, we’re going to military intelligence.” Lifa smirked and went back to check all the secret information.
