"E-eh?" Elysia was stunned when she saw the Demi-God spirit bird shoved aside by Erina.
"Erina, what do you an by doing this?" Victoria was dissatisfied with the disrespectful treatnt.
"No particular reason. Just please don't interrupt while I'm talking. Isn't that the basics of politeness?" Erina glanced at Victoria and responded politely, but for so reason, an aura of coldness and aloofness emanated from her passively.
"What's wrong with this girl? Her mood swings are terrible. She is sotis cheerful, cold, arrogant, quiet, and many more." Victoria snorted and grunted in astonishnt.
"Hehe, there's no need to make things more complicated. I brought a little gift for everyone. Please accept this." Elysia handed out a gift box and distributed it to Erina and the others.
"Oh my, I'm glad you haven't forgotten . You look even more lovely and pleasing to the eye, Ely." Darkness opened her gift box eagerly. She found a set of dresses, complete with ornants. "What's this?"
"A pretty dress with a dark night the. Do you like it? It was specially designed by one of the best tailors in the world." Elysia put her hands together. She felt that Darkness didn't have a proper dress other than the revealing one. Thus she gave one for consideration.
"Is this otherworldly food!? Wow, it slls good and sweet. Then, I won't stand for ceremony. Enjoy your al!" Victoria exclaid with a radiant glow in her eyes. She spoke no more and imdiately devoured food from other worlds like no tomorrow.
"Share a little bit, can you?" Darkness snatched so snacks from Victoria's box with a godly speed.
"Hey, that's mine. You already have your own section." Victoria complained and imdiately secured her box like it was her baby.
"I'm glad you liked it. I have so other snacks if you want." Elysia put a parcel on the table.
"You don't have to bother preparing all this, Ellie. I feel ashad that I haven't prepared anything for you." Erina felt a bit embarrassed.
"You and Mio only need to cultivate diligently. That can be a reward for ." Elysia approached Erina's face and whispered softly. "I appreciate the sentint, but no need to be formal. I give things out of personal desire."
"Yes." Erina replied with a ek tone.
"Anyway, it's a manual, technique, and skill book tailored for you, Mio. Please familiarize yourself with it and start training with your master. Erin will achieve her dream, and you should be by her side. It won't be easy, but I believe you can do it." Elysia patted Mio's shoulder.
"I will not disappoint your expectations, Elysia-sama." Mio bowed respectfully.
"..." Erina checked the box's contents and found a golden bracelet.
She had no idea what kind of artifact it was. But, since it was a gift from Elysia, she would gladly wear it all the ti.
*Bzzt*
A bunch of information flowed into Erina's mind when she put on that golden bracelet. She gasped as she realized how valuable this artifact was, and Elysia gave it to her just like it was a new year's present?
'It's a welco exclusive gift only for my people, Elysium's new mber. It will assist you greatly besides the gloves.' Elysia secretly gave a wink to Erina.
"The gift has been given, now let's sit down and talk a little about the recent event. Do you have an idea of what the hell gate you were talking about earlier, Erin?" Elysia sat down on the sofa next to Darkness.
"This is a secret photo in the database of the military headquarters." Erina showed an image on her smartphone to Elysia.
It was a giant stone gate like the one in the royal era hundreds of years ago, but it had many carved heads that resembled demons. The photo was taken during heavy rain, and everything needed to be clarified from that picture.
"Hmm, this does look nacing... What do you think? Have you ever seen this gate in person?" Elysia put her hand to her chin, then glanced at Darkness.
"That gate is sowhat like an underworld's gate, but it's just a cheap copy. A counterfeit product with no credentials. Even if it still works and those stupid humans can trigger the dinsional portal, it will only lead to a cheap secret realm." Darkness shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly.
"Is that so? Well, I am not allowed to interfere in this matter or the Earth Mother will scold . Allow to give you a few pointers then." Elysia patted her cheeks with a contemplating expression, but she imdiately put the matter aside.
While Elysia was enlightening Erina and co with a valuable lecture, Fortuna and Gaia had just arrived in a separate dinsion. They seed to be in the clouds, sitting facing each other and drinking tea quietly.
"So, what did you want to talk to about, Fortuna?" Gaia opened the conversation.
"Is the future of Earth is bleak? You don't want Ely to interfere, but what are you going to do?" Fortuna finished doing a quick divination to predict the future. Three out of five were Earth's bleak situations.
"Nothing. Let things unfold as they will according to fate and destiny. If that is indeed what will happen in the future, then that is what will happen. This is not the first ti the end of an era has occurred on Earth, and you already know about it." Gaia answered casually.
"Why do you sound like you don't care?"
"I am neutral and fair. Everyone gets a chance, cause and effect."
"I see... That doesn't an anything will happen any ti soon." Fortuna sighed after staring into Gaia's bluish-green eyes. She could see the resolution, indisputable gaze there.
What Elysia said was true. Things weren't as bad as she had imagined, and those were just a few possibilities. Lifa frightened her very much with the previous conversation.
"Did Lady Lifa frighten you?" Gaia could guess sothing out of Fortuna's expression.
"Yeah, a bit." Fortuna nodded reflexively, but she was montarily stunned. "Wait, why do you know her na already?"
"We've gotten quite along, and she told in person. Anyway, how's the situation in the overworld? Everything's all right under control?" Gaia grasped her hand on the table.
"Pretty good, but I can't say for sure about the final outco. It's still blurry, even with the participation of Ely and her master." Fortuna heaved a subtle sigh.
"I see... I just hope she isn't a pushover." Gaia looked into the distant void.
Fortuna then asked Gaia a few things about the Heaven Realm's affairs, but she had no intention of going there.
A few monts later, Elysia felt it was enough to say her business on Earth was done. Erina and Mio could do the rest independently with what she had passed.
"Erin, please send soone to deliver this package to this address. Make sure the recipient receives the package in person." Elysia took out a delivery package ready to be delivered and handed it over to Erina.
"Hm, okay. But, may I know the details? I'm worried that overseas packages will be rejected by the recipient during direct delivery by my people." Erina looked at the address listed on the package box and felt curious.
"They are a family of three to soone I knew besides you on Earth. Unfortunately, he passed away a few years ago. As an old acquaintance, I would like to give a farewell gift to wish them well. His na is Ali Avery." Elysia gave few details because she didn't think she would go there in person.
"All right, I will arrange for soone to fly to Indonesia this afternoon to deliver this package directly to Ali Avery's family." Erina nodded in understanding and didn't overthink. Elysia was just so good.
"Thank you." Elysia appreciated the help. She trusted Erina, and she could return with a calm heart.
'Ely, I've finished my business. Pick up please. Now it's ti for us to return to Vrelenia. Oh, Earth Mother will send you to our current location.' Fortuna sent spirit telepathy to Elysia.
'Okay, give three minutes, and tell Earth Mother to co get . But, don't you want to et Darkness and Victoria? They badmouthed you behind your back.' Elysia looked at the clock. Nearly two hours had passed without her noticing.
'I don't want to et them because they haven't served their purpose.' Fortuna felt reluctant if she needed to et those two.
Elysia took a deep breath and stood up. "It's ti for to return, Erin, everyone. I wish you good health and blessings, but don't you dare to slack off."
"So soon? Can't you stay until lunch, Ellie?" Erina felt reluctant to part. She tugged at the hem of Elysia's dress by reflex.
"I just had lunch on the other side. Co on, you are a big strong girl. Want a hug?" Elysia held Erina's hand and spread her arms wide.
"..." Erina blinked her eyes a few tis, then stood up and hugged Elysia wordlessly.
Elysia stroked Erina's hair gently. Half of Erina's long hair has returned to its original dark brown color. However, the other half is still like gold thread in Erina's awakened mode.
"You are halfway to mastering your full potential. When your hair is back to normal with a natural dark brown color, that is proof of success as a result of your hard work. You can switch between your awakened mode and standby mode at will. You can use the golden paradise domain in the near future." Elysia whispered close to Erina's ear.
"Thank you, Ellie. It's all thanks to you. I don't know how I can repay you in this life." Erin smiled gently.
"You are my people. You can repay it at any ti because you already belong to ." Elysia blew soft air into Erina's ear, then released her hug.
Erina blushed while holding her ear, but Elysia imdiately said goodbye once more with a smile before a sudden dinsional fluctuation took Elysia away.
