'Sure, do you want to et them in person or watch from afar?' Elysia imdiately voiced her agreent without needing to consider anything.
'Mm, eting them is fine. So we can know what they are doing. You did suggest this before, but I rejected it at the ti. However, if we do share our fate and destiny from the start, then we need to see who has been involved with our origin.' Ai grasped her hand and looked at Elysia's face, who was currently still using the form of the Goddess of Light.
'Yes, you might be able to recall your lost mory about your past life, Ai.' Elysia put her hands together.
'I thought it wasn't going to happen. My previous life as Alisha is nothing more than a story of one's life. It is no longer significant to the current . Let's think of it as an old story. We will et them not to expect anything. I just want to see them doing well.' Ai shook her head.
'All right.' Elysia stretched out her hand, and Ai took it without a word. But, the latter was comforted.
Elysia thought about the event when she was sent to Vrelenia. It was her last dream on Earth; that was Ali's life stories that repeated like ti never rotated.
The ti that transpired in that dream was sowhat short, but two years passed as the gap between Ali's death and her awakening in this world as Elysia.
If Sylvia hadn't killed Alisha on that fateful night, maybe she would have fused with Alisha and there wouldn't be Ai. However, what about the two years gap?
In that event, she t her guardian angel, who always stayed with her. She also received trendous power without any cause or reason, the imagination magic.
If it was like what Lifa said, it was all the universe's will. So, everything was arranged and controlled by the universe itself?
Universe might just lend this kind of power for her to save Vrelenia from the Ruvoid Race. However, what about her true origin?
There were lots of golden mory orbs that she couldn't reach in her Subconscious Mind. That realm was unexplorable because no one had access to it. The gate to the Boundless Realm was also hidden there, Ai's spirit was trapped and stranded in the Boundless Realm upon death. Everything happened as if it had been scripted.
The two years gap between Ali's death and Elysia's awakening was not the ti difference between Vrelenia and Earth. Still, the universe perhaps sealed her soul and spirit, including Elena, for that fateful night. But why was that?
'Now it is three people: Sister Elena, Sister Ai and myself. We share our origins, but who we were in the distant past remains unknown. If we have saved this world, will the universe be kind enough to show us the path to the truth? Or, is it simply going to take back the power it lent us?' Elysia looked up at the sky with a distant gaze. She made sure she was talking to herself, though Elena and Rhea were still there to discover her train of thought.
There were many things that crossed her mind in that split second.
'Even if the universe's will takes away my power, it doesn't matter. We just need to start from scratch. However, will they still choose to be with or decide to leave? After Vrelenia is saved... perhaps, it's the mont when our spirit connection is revoked by universe's will? Without adequate strength, I can't support Rhea's live either. What will happen next, hmm? I am wondering. I hope it's just baseless conjecture.' Elysia glanced at the cheerful girls around her.
She felt like it no longer mattered, but it still ca to her mind every once in a while because she thought her trendous power was only temporary.
'Ely... you are overthinking things again. Can we enjoy what cos to us and face what cos our way in ti? Whatever, whoever, and however it is... Even if the universe is against us and everyone decides to leave, I will still be there with you.' Elena spoke via spirit telepathy. She didn't know whether Rhea's mind sync was active or not, but Rhea didn't seem aware of Elysia's train of thought.
'Yeah, sorry. They entrusted their destiny and lives to us to help us save the world. I can't let their faith down. Ah, we've arrived at the Holy Church. Pope Alexander is already waiting for us at the entrance.' Elysia joined her hands as they arrived at the Holy Church.
"Ohohoho, welco to the Holy Chruch, almighty Goddesses. I know you are doing well, my granddaughter." Alexander greeted everyone warmly.
However. his expression imdiately changed upon noticing the presence of the Evil God. "Wait, why is this Ominous Being following you? The Holy Church isn't a place an Evil, I an Heretic God like you, can visit."
"There's no place that I can't go. You can't stop or prevent with your little holy magic. Don't compare to the Devil Emperor because I'm not him." Xero folded his arms, putting on an arrogant attitude.
"It's okay. We won't be going into the Holy Church since we still need to wait for the other Gods and Goddesses to co here. We will be using the pavilion in the south area of the church for our eting. Put up guard and please co with us, Pope Alexander." Elysia put on a lofty deanor. She then walked away, guiding everyone to follow her.
"What, hmph, consider the Holy Church granting a waiver." Alexander fixed his eyes on the Heretic God. He ordered the holy knights and priests to put up state-class guards before rushing after the divine group.
"I already received the report. To know there was a hidden Emperor of the past trying to extract our sacred blood for the ancient calamity beast revival ritual. That is unforgivable. The Holy Church has been fighting the evil since ancient tis, and those filthy things cannot be tolerated!" Alexander clenched his fists as he walked beside his granddaughter.
"It's okay, grandfather. Everything has been taken care of by the Goddesses and everyone. Gio was the one to beat that calamity beast into desert magma mud. Ely saved my life." Ella smiled faintly and looked down slightly.
She hadn't confird it yet, but she was currently under the assumption that Elysia's blood was flowing within her body. The divine blood to save her life. Ella glanced at 'Elysia' with a flushed expression but did not lose the slightest reverence.
"Hmm?" Xero was intrigued. He hadn't heard of such an event from Rhea or Lina.
"An Emperor of the past. The one who once ruled the underground kingdom in the western desert region of Human Continent. He awakened the ancient calamity beast to create terror in the world, dedicating everything to the Ruvoid Gods." Elysia explained briefly when Xero looked at her with a questioning gaze.
"Emperor of the past? How could he still live that long even at the mortal level? Celestine Family's blood can revive the calamity beast?" Xero rubbed his chin in astonishnt.
"That Emperor may have an world artifact that will resurrect him like your case. However, he awakened as a demon, the Zombie Emperor. The ntioned ancient calamity beast was what the Holy Church fought against in the past. The Pope of the past was the one who sealed that monster beneath the ruined heretical kingdom's capital city. You were already dead by the ti it happened." Rhea shrugged her shoulders.
"Hey, is that a personal attack or sothing? But, low version of my divine artifact, huh? How can a demon possess that?" Xero rubbed his chin while deep in thought.
He then rembered that he had thrown away a failed product while creating his divine artifact in hell. So, a lucky demon might have picked it up before it fell into the hands of a human?
However, since the Goddesses had already solved the problem, it no longer mattered.
Elysia sat down, and Elena was present next to her, but not everyone got a seat since the place wasn't that big.
"Can Xentia have lunch? We haven't had breakfast yet..." Xentia spoke in a whisper-like voice.
"Permission granted. Feel free to have lunch." Rhea gave her permission with a smile.
"Then, please excuse us~" Xentia excused herself and went to have lunch beside the pavilion. It was a simple picnic event for the girls. But little Gio and Cherub soon joined.
"Pope Alexander, is there anything you'd like to report to us regarding the strange incidents that have been happening lately?" Elysia intertwined her fingers on the table and asked in a neutral tone.
"Yeah, you may already know the gist, but allow to report the details. In the past three days, there has been a group of unknown entities that have been plundering the graves of the world's once famous people. The Emperors, nobles, and even the heroes of the past... According to recent reports, ninety-eight remains have disappeared. The perpetrators remain unknown until now." Alexander put his hand on the table and reported the latest worrying situation.
"The dead's remains? What do those tomb raiders plan to do with those weathered skeletons? I already know that burning the dead to ashes is the only reasonable solution, not burying them in the ground to rot into skeletons." Xero rolled his eyes.
"Humans are born from the elent of earth, so we need to return to earth at. Don't confuse humans with devils or demons. Your race is born from the elent of fire, and definitely needs to return to fire." Alexander kept calm and explained a bit of enlightennt in case the one once known as the Devil God forgot.
"Skeletons, huh... Ella, this incident might have sothing to do with what happened in the underground forbidden city. The tomb raiders that are being talked about here might bring more dead people back to the world as demons." Elena looked back, dragging the girls into this small discussion.
"Demon? Heretic God, I hope you know sothing about this. Are the devils and the demons the mastermind behind this tomb raiders case?" Alexander frowned.
