Chapter 658: The Traitor Among Us
After tears ans sobs, Erina feels much calmer now. Moreover, Elysia stroked her hair, giving her peace of mind.
"Ely, they are vile and treacherous... They kidnapped me because they wanted to make me the source of their wealth." Erina looked up from Elysia\'s arms.
"Hm? Mm, they are vile, selfish, greedy, and traitors. Let\'s give them to the authorities after this for questioning." Elysia nodded in agreement.
"Those vile people... Where are they? They are armed and dangerous espers. We have to deal with them, Elysia-san." Erina trembled slightly for fear that her friend would only suffer the same fate as her.
"Worry not, we\'ve got them. They\'re now being held as captives in that room. Uhm, would you like to see them?" Elysia replied with a warm smile.
"You already... All of them?" Erin was stunned. She then spotted Sylvia and Vanessa behind Elysia, so it was predictable for this quick rescue action. "I see..."
"Yup. We\'re on our way to Japan now. But, we\'ll still fall when the fuel runs out. Let\'s hope we get to our destination." Elysia looked up with a playful expression.
"We, we\'re going to fall!? Are, are we going to die?" Erina widened her eyes in surprise. She didn\'t understand why Elysia could say that calmly.
"Why do you think so? But, calm down. Everything is still under control. Oh, right, where\'s the bracelet I gave you? It\'s a protective artifact and can save lives in a pinch, you know?" Elysia tilted her head slightly.
"Please forgive me, Ely... Those bad guys threw all my belongings into the sea. They even destroyed my smartphone." Erina looked down in apology. She then muttered in a whisper-like voice with another sob. "I, I, they\'ve touched me. I\'ve been tainted and no longer innocent."
"Have they touched you? What kind of touch are we talking about?" Elysia blinked her eyes in confusion. She could see that Erina was still a virgin, and she knew those bad guys didn\'t even dare to touch this girl carelessly.
After all, those bad guys were afraid to turn into a golden statue just from Erina\'s touch.
Erina wanted to answer, but her voice wouldn\'t come out of her mouth. Yet, a pair of gentle hands pulled her into a warm embrace. By the time she realized what was happening, her head was already leaning against Elysia\'s breasts, which gave her peace of mind and comfort.
She inhaled Elysia\'s soothing scent and heard a heartbeat that encouraged her to tell Elysia everything.
After listening to Erina\'s story, Elysia didn\'t know what to say. She then pinched Erina\'s waist and tickled the girl a little. "Hora, hora, I\'m also touching you right now. Those bad guys don\'t dare touch you if you want to know. They\'re afraid of becoming a golden statue. However, isn\'t that great? Your innocent is still there. They only hurt you a little. I\'ve also healed your wounds."
"Eh-hng, mm! That\'s ticklish, Elysia-san." Erina wanted to laugh out of amusement, but she suppressed it. Even so, her body squirmed as Elysia tickled her.
What Elysia said was true. No one dared to touch her, just like what Elysia did to her right now.
"Well, those bad guys only hurt you to inflict fear so you can turn objects into gold or precious metals, Erina-san. For the rest while you were unconscious, you were only tied up using the rope over there, but you turned it into a golden rope." Elysia pointed her finger to the side.
Erina looked in the indicated direction. She was silent for a moment. However, a thought suddenly crossed her mind, and she immediately said it out. "Elysia-san, may I know how you got on this plane? I mean, I\'m sure you weren\'t kidnapped by those bad guys."
"Hehe, don\'t sweat the small stuff, Erina-san. We just happened to be passing by, and sensed you were in danger. Let\'s call it a coincidence." Elysia didn\'t dare look at Erina\'s face. She couldn\'t come up with a reasonable excuse for the matter and simply avoided the topic.
At that moment, Xero suddenly sent telepathy to Elysia. \'Elysia, where are those Goddesses hiding, and why did they do that?\'
\'Uhm, it\'s probably because they don\'t want their magic sealed, maybe?\' Elysia gave a pretty reasonable random reason.
\'Huh!? That\'s cheating! Your master asked me to take shape while she and her friend hid behind her disciple? Isn\'t this a bit unfair?\' Xero threw his protests in discontent. If he could keep his magic intact without needing to be sealed, he would obviously do the same.
\'You\'re a big devil, stop sulking like a child. You don\'t have a suitable artifact for that right now, do you? You also don\'t want any holy light attribute artifact, do you? Sylvi doesn\'t have one for that either. So, for the time being, you will be an additional bodyguard for my Ely.\' Elena joined the conversation.
\'What? Who do you call like a child? Very well, it\'s only a day or two, right? I will be a bird of doom for a while, but I will not accept the third day.\' Xero was offended and annoyed, but he simply complied as he had no other choice.
"Ely, do you want me to do something? How long will our trip to Japan take? This is just a suggestion, how about we put the Gravy Ark to support this plane now? That way, we\'ll arrive in Japan with some leftover fuel. If all goes according to plan, then you can play your situation there later." Sylvia raised her hand and expressed her suggestion.
She and Vanessa had finished eating, and they didn\'t know what to do. This air travel was obviously going to take some time at the current pace, and it was something Sylvia wanted to deal with.
\'Wow, that\'s really mind blowing and can save you from any trouble or hassle, Ely. You can make nonsense excuses later if you are questioned by, perhaps the Japanese soldiers, or the Minamoto Clan people.\' Elena was very supportive of that suggestion.
\'Mm, let Sylvia set the Gravy Ark to support this plane, Master Elysia. After that, you can ask her to rest. Wait, I remember the Gravy Ark can be controlled from a certain distance. I\'ll teach you how later.\' Rhea also voiced her opinion.
Elysia had a brief discussion with Elena and Rhea before they agreed on what to do.
"Mm, you can attach the Gravy Ark to the bottom of this plane, Sylvi. Please make it fly in active mode in the direction this plane is going. I\'ll take care of the rest." Elysia gave an approving nod.
"Affirmative!" Sylvia saluted and rushed into a toilet room.
"..." Erina just watched Sylvia\'s back in silence.
"Nee, Erina-san... I didn\'t expect a traitor in the elite team to come with you. Let\'s take a look at the captives for your peace of mind, and let\'s go to the pilot\'s cockpit. It wouldn\'t be good to leave everything to the autopilot system." Elysia helped Erina to stand up.
"Mm, that person is a traitor, Matsui Tetsuo. He is an elite and good at disguise. Everyone is tricked by him, and who would have thought that he teamed up with traitors from other countries because they wanted me... That\'s really scary, Elysia-san. I might never see the sun again because they might lock me in a dungeon in a remote region and force me to create gold for them." Erina hugged herself tightly and trembled as she imagined the worst scenario if Elysia didn\'t save her.
"Haha, you just need to be extra careful next time, Erina-san. Even though you have a lot of good karma and luck, evil always lurk everywhere. Traitor can be present among us without us knowing it. It\'s not every time a savior can save you from trouble." Elysia hugged Erina\'s shoulders and opened the automatic steel door using a passcode.
"En! I will." Erina nodded and recorded it in the most important note in her mind.
After the door opened, Erina checked that all the bad guys were unconscious and bound with a unique but effective-looking technique. It was at first glance like brown cocoons hanging from the ceiling.
She then glared at a Japanese man who made her fall into a predicament. She was lost in the dark night of the military base, and Mio somehow turned into that man. When she got onto this plane, she realized that she was really in big trouble.
"Disguise and camouflage are scary, huh. Especially when it\'s dark at night. It\'s not your fault. Let\'s let the ruthless interrogators take care of them later. I\'m sure your father and grandfather will make the party great." Elysia closed the steel door again and changed the lock password.
"They must be really worried right now, especially my grandfather. Elysia-san, can I borrow your smartphone? I want to call my grandfather, and tell him I\'m fine." Erina held Elysia\'s arm with a pleading look.
"Sure, here. But, no signal here. Let\'s go to the pilot\'s cockpit now. Would you like some breakfast?" Elysia gave her smartphone to Erina, and they walked away from there.
Vanessa glanced at the crow on the seat, then immediately followed her master. That Heretic God was relaxing there and didn\'t want to be disturbed.
A few moments later, Sylvia returned to the plane cabin. She looked left and right, then followed Elysia into the pilot\'s cockpit.
"Ely, I\'ve done what you asked~ You can set this plane to save fuel now." Sylvia entered with a cheerful smile.
"Thank you. Uhm... Sylvi, would you like to rest? You\'ve been working hard these past two days, and you must be feeling tired." Elysia looked back from the pilot\'s seat.
"Hum, I\'m still looking forward to sleeping in the same bed with you, Ely... But, hm, that opportunity may come after this. Alright, I\'ll take a break. Please wake me up if something happens." Sylvia sat next to the entrance and leaned against the wall. She then closed her eyes.
