Chapter 674: Come Back to Settle the Inevitable
"Erina-sama, is that okay? I mean, you let Elysia-sama put something into your subconscious. I don\'t want to mean being presumptuous or feeling suspicious even if it\'s groundless, but I\'m just worried." Mio asked worriedly.
"No, Mio. Elysia-san won\'t do anything you might worry about. As you know, Elysia-san has many ways to do anything to anyone without anyone\'s permission or knowledge. I actually feel very grateful and honored to have her trust. Elysia -san is still so mysterious, and I feel one step closer to getting to know her." Erina shook her head with a gentle smile on her face.
She entered her penthouse as Elysia and Sylvia could no longer be seen in the corridor.
"I see." Mio replied with a subtle nod.
Ah, um, I forgot to tell Elysia-san that a group of envoys from England is still waiting for her in Japan. Well, they might only be able to meet Elysia-san around next month, hehe... I wonder what Elysia-san wants to do in another realm. What kind of treasure does she want to get, hmm?" Erina put her hand to her cheek and looked out the window.
After a moment of pensiveness, Erina turned around. "Looks like it\'s about the time. Mio, please postpone all my scheduled events for another month or two."
"But, it might have an impact on your popularity, Erina-sama. Sorry to say this, but you have agreed to attend several events this month and next month, including some concerts and music shows." Mio was surprised by Erina\'s sudden request. She had no idea what changed Erina\'s mind.
"You can tell them that I\'m not doing well. I\'m sure they\'ll understand since it was my request and the Minamoto Clan. It was them who needed me, not the other way around. Therefore, they will follow my rules, or there is no deal." Erina glanced at Mio once with an innocent expression. She then went into her room to change clothes.
Mio was just stunned on the spot. A few moments later, Erina returned to the living room, already wrapped in a stylish dress as if ready to leave.
"Mio, quickly change your clothes. It\'s time for us to go. Many things are waiting for us." Erina tilted her head slightly and waved her hand in front of Mio\'s face. She didn\'t understand why her bodyguard was daydreaming.
"Eh, ah, mm, you look fine, Erina-sama. May I know the real reason for your decision just now? And again, what are your plans now?" Mio could guess the answer, but she wanted to hear it directly from Erina.
"I\'m not fine, Mio. Elysia-san gave me a privilege, but I\'m too weak to use it. Now is the time for us to return to the esper world and start cultivating. I hope to advance to rank 4 or maybe 5 in one or two months." Erina put her hand on her upper chest.
She could feel Elysia\'s spirit mark even though it couldn\'t be explained in science.
"Understood! Please wait for a moment, Erina-sama." Mio nodded in understanding, gave a polite greeting, then immediately went into her room to change her clothes.
She never thought that Erina would be interested in cultivating again since the incident a few years ago. Erina\'s progress stopped because of the fear and terror of that seemingly terrifying power. Yet, all that changed only because of Elysia\'s involvement.
Meanwhile, Elysia\'s group had just left Earth\'s human realm. They teleported to a remote island in the red sea of the underworld.
"Why is the sky dark here and the red sea? Wasn\'t it still morning just now?" Sylvia wondered.
"Perhaps, this place is on the other side of the world, Sylvi. Come here. I\'ll remove your magic seal." Elysia eliminated Vanessa and Xero\'s magic seal, and Sylvia was the last one.
\'Phew, we have finally arrived at the day we will return to Vrelenia.\' Elena muttered in a nostalgic tone.
\'Master Elena and I will protect everyone from here, Master Elysia. However, please wear your divine battlesuit as your body is very fragile and vulnerable. This is just a precaution, my apologies if I\'m being blunt.\' Rhea voiced her opinion frankly, but she was worried it would hurt Elysia\'s feelings since it was Elysia\'s weak spot.
\'Mm, I completely understand. I\'ll try contacting Nell first before trying the long-distance interdimensional teleportation technique.\' Elysia nodded in understanding and checked her surroundings with her sacred vision.
After ensuring there were no dangers or threats in the surroundings, Elysia closed her eyes. She tried to send telepathy to Nell using their spirit connection. \'Nell, can you hear my voice? Please answer my telepathy.\'
Elysia tried several times, but the response came after a while. Nell replied with some enthusiasm. \'Ely, is that you? Are you going back to Vrelenia now?\'
Elysia breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Nell\'s voice. However, she immediately went straight to the point. \'Mm, something unexpected happened, and we decided to return two days earlier than expected. What are you doing now? Can you go somewhere safe and peaceful? We will try to teleport to Vrelenia with you as a destination point.\'
\'Mm, sure! I will immediately withdraw from the battlefield right now. Stay connected with me. Give me a few minutes.\' Nell immediately carried out Elysia\'s request without delay. A few minutes later, Nell gave her confirmation. \'I\'m in a safe place now, Ely. What do you want me to do?\'
\'You just need to make sure this telepathy channel stays connected with you. Can you feel this path of our spirit connection?\' Elysia started preparing to use her technique. She tried to pinpoint Nell\'s exact location regardless of their distance.
\'Mm, fine. I\'ll make sure of it. However, please be careful too, Ely. You will open a dimensional hole to travel to Vrelenia. Your safety is paramount.\' Nell voiced her concern.
\'Of course, we will be careful so that what happened earlier doesn\'t happen again. With careful preparation, we are sure nothing bad will happen.\' Elysia tried to reassure Nell.
"Sylvi, Vann, Tic, come here, please. We\'re going back to Vrelenia now." Elysia beckoned everyone to come closer.
"Hum, it\'s about time, keke. I can soon rebuild my divine devil body and eradicate those accursed creatures from my home planet. I\'ll be back on Earth next month to eradicate that cocky boy." Xero chuckled as he rubbed his hands together. He sounds like a sneaky bad guy.
Elysia held her black divine bracelet and activated it. A flash of light particles crept from her wrist and spread throughout her body. Her fallen angel divine battlesuit instantly wrapped her body in mere seconds.
"Wow, you\'re wearing your divine angel battle suit, Ely? Do I need to wear my Aracheris? The previous world transfer to Earth was hazardous, right? The corrosion in that dimensional gap gave me goosebumps." Sylvia hugged herself as if she was afraid of something.
"That\'s fine, just in case, Sylvi." Elysia didn\'t explain much and just agreed.
"Wait a moment. I need to summon my divine battlesuit." Sylvia took a few steps back and chanted. She then chanted her mantra while holding her black bracelet.
A moment later, light and black mist enveloped her. By the time the transformation was complete, the black battlesuit had wrapped Sylvia\'s body. However, she was forced into her half-dragon form somehow.
"Wow, why did my feathery wings and tail just appear? My horns too." Sylvia examined her wings, tail, and horns in some surprise.
"Hehe, maybe it\'s because they want to greet the world after being hidden for so long?" Elysia just smiled and faced everyone once again. "Are you ready, everyone? We are returning to Vrelenia now."
"I\'m ready, master." Vanessa jumped into her master\'s embrace. She had to secure her safe spot first.
"I\'m ready any time." Xero puffed out his chest slightly.
"Let\'s go back to our world. Your master and the Goddess of Nature will assist us too if something unexpected happens, right?" Sylvia glanced at Elysia\'s bracelets.
"Mm, they\'re on standby to take care of everything if the unexpected happens. Sylvi, please hold my arm. Tic, please excuse me." Elysia crouched down and picked up the crow.
"Sure~" Sylvia put her hand on Elysia\'s arm.
Elysia checked the surroundings once more and immediately tried to open a dimensional portal for teleportation between different universes.
*Zap*
A golden hole of light engulfed Elysia\'s group in the blink of an eye. Their existences instantly disappeared from the underworld.
\'Ely, stay focused and ignore this turmoil or shock! We\'ll take care of the rest. Make sure your connection with Nell is still there, and we\'re heading in the right direction.\' Elena reminded as the golden energy hole turned purplish-black with the sparkling stars.
Elysia didn\'t answer and just left the rest to Elena and Rhea. She needed to stay focused on bringing her group along by following the connection path between her and Nell.
No one could tell how fast they crossed the space in the dimensional hole because everything was blurry. Only the colors of the dark spectrum could be identified.
Sylvia, Xero, and Vanessa were still relaxed as they didn\'t feel Elysia panicking. So, everything was still okay.
When the golden light overlapped the dark dimensional hole, Elysia felt somewhat relieved because she could tell that the distance between herself and Nell was already so close. They almost arrived at Vrelenia.
Meanwhile, Nell was still waiting on a rocky hill while observing the war in the distance. Human troops were battling a swarm of accursed creatures in anti-curse zones.
