Chapter 832 The Day Before the Heavenly Battle (1)
Elysia’s group has just arrived at one of the famous studio buildings used for music and dance practice. They got off the limousine and walked into the building jokingly.
However, some people realized the group consisted of extraordinary people blessed with attractive looks and pleasant voices.
“Excuse me, I’m from the Twinkle Star agency. I really look forward to recruiting you into our talent selection audition.”
“This may seem sudden, but I see the potential for great models that radiate from you. Would you like to enter our modeling event and become the next super model?”
“What a pleasant voice to hear. I can see the aura of fame radiating through all of you. Would you like to realize your hidden talent and showcase it to the world? You can become superstars!”
Several talent agents who happened to be around rushed to confront Elysia’s group. Unfortunately, several bodyguards prevented them from getting any further.
Even though the talent agencies knew those attractive people were not ordinary, they would still try their luck to recruit new stars.
“What did they say, Mio? I thought it was an ambush.” Elysia spoke in a whisper-like voice.
“They’re just talent agencies trying to recruit you. Just ignore them. I’ll do something to keep them from getting in the way.” Mio then told the talent agencies to leave with a bit of emphasis.
“Let’s go in.” Erina took Elysia’s hand and entered the studio with enthusiasm. She couldn’t wait to play music and dance with Elysia.
A person in charge of the studio came to greet Erina’s group before they were escorted to their reserved place.
Elysia’s group went to Studio 9. It was not just an ordinary music studio but a whole stage performance that resembled a small theatre. Various musical scenes could be seen already set up on the stage. The spotlights shone on both the stage and dance floor.
“Then I excuse myself. Have fun~” The manager left the room.
The two bodyguards from the Hong Clan also came out of the room. They would stand guard outside.
“Erina, I need to go to the toilet first.” Elysia immediately rushed out of the room in a bit of a hurry. The call of nature was real here.
Sylvia and Xentia rushed after Elysia.
“E-Ellie? Even though there’s also a toilet behind the stage…” Erina pointed at a sign in the corner of the room, but Elysia had already run away.
“It’s an urgent matter. Elysia-sama saw the toilet before we got here.” Mio explained with an amused smile.
“Mm, alright. While waiting for Ellie, Sylvia-san, and Xentia-san to return… Well, Mio I want all of our activities here to be recorded. Please do something to the control room.” Erina looked into a room behind the glass on the second floor. She booked this studio for a personal reason.
“Affirmative. However, you will come with me, Erina-sama. I cannot leave you alone.” Mio nodded in understanding.
“O-okay…” Erina understood Mio’s situation. It was because of Sylvia’s words the other day. Even though she wanted to check the musical instruments on stage, she could only go to the control room with Mio.
“…” Elysia had just arrived at the toilet. She wanted to answer her call of nature, but she remembered some people witnessed everything from her shadow.
Therefore, she asked everyone to get out of her shadow without exception.
“Sorry to keep you all waiting so long.” Elysia apologized that four hours was not a short time.
“That’s not a problem. We see a lot of things and fill our time away from boredom.” Ai shrugged.
“Hm? What do you see?” Elysia smiled faintly as she realized something. Almost every girl avoided eye contact with him.
She then looked into Yuuki’s eyes, questioning the truth.
“We mostly watched everyone’s underneath…” Yuuki immediately confessed with a slight blush on her face.
“Please don’t talk nonsense Yuuki. It’s just because we’re in the Ely’s shadow.” Ai immediately grabbed Yuuki’s head and brought it closer to her face. She then whispered in a mosquito-like voice. “Didn’t I tell you not to talk about it?”
“Sorry, I just can’t lie to my master!” Yuuki became panicked. She was enjoying her time, and Elysia already knew the situation.
“Naughty, peeking at us all the time.” Elysia glanced down. Thankfully, she wore her long stockings.
Come to think of it, anyone in her shadow would look from the ground up. So, the view seen from there was obvious.
“Me, I’m not naughty. I also don’t peek if it’s clearly present in front of me.” Ai immediately defended herself. She then muttered softly. “Can I still enter your shadow?”
“Sure, I won’t forbid you. I just need to wear stockings or pants at that point.” Elysia just smiled gently and ran her hand through Ai’s long hair.
She then rushed to the toilet to take a leak.
“Traitor.” Ai pursed her lips to Yuuki.
“Sorry. I can’t lie as I belong to my master.” Yuuki only apologized.
“You can’t blame Yuuki, Ai. Look, Master Elysia is so understanding. I’m sure a lot has happened between you and Master Elysia in the Boundless Realm.” Vanessa got down from Xentia’s arms.
“Yeah, Ely isn’t that shy anymore thanks to you. I wonder what you used to do with Ely. Is it a secret just between the two of you? Uuh, this makes me even more curious.” Sylvia covered her mouth as she raised her eyebrows up and down.
Elysia came out of the toilet and flushed her hands into the sink. She then invites everyone with a sweet smile. “Phew, thanks for waiting. Please don’t worry about trivial things. Would you like to play some beautiful music and dance together on the performance stage? It will be so much fun because we have the theater just for us.”
“Whoa, this is going to be so romantic.” Evelyn put her hands together with a sparkle on her gaze.
“All of us. But, is it okay to let Erina and Mio know about us? I thought we were playing a secret.” Lynn raised her hand.
“Everything’s fine. We’re going to have fun until the afternoon. After dinner and finishing the business at the Hong Clan, we’ll join the primary group.” Elysia spun once and flicked her skirt. She then went behind Ai and pushed her twin away.
No one could flee to her shadow at this time because she invited everyone.
“Uuh, fine. I’ll enjoy it in my own way.” Ai just relented and obeyed Elysia.
“Fun!” Xentia rushed to follow, and everyone else followed.
“…” Gio waited outside the women’s restroom. When the girls came out, Cherub had climbed onto his shoulder. After that, everyone went to the studio room.
“Hmm?” Erina saw the studio door open, and several people came inside. “Mio, they?”
“…” Mio checked through the glass wall. She saw that Elysia had brought several other people to join this event. It was no big deal, but they were the same girls in the photo they got a few days ago.
“Elysia-sama also invited her organization’s members? Erina-sama, please come back and meet them. However, please be careful in your attitude as they are Guardians of Dream’s members. Elysia-sama may wish to introduce you to them as a sign of trust.” Mio took a deep breath and urged Erina to return to the theater.
“O-okay, I’m leaving.” Erina hurriedly left the control room.
“Where did Erina and Mio go?” Elysia asked in wonder.
“Ellie!” Erina waved her hand as she walked closer.
“Hm, you alone?” Elysia checked her surroundings with her advanced perception.
Erina looked at the girls around Elysia. She only knows a part of it. However, she was instantly shocked when she noticed the presence of Elysia’s twin sister!
That girl’s appearance was so similar to Elysia’s. It was just that that girl’s eyes were bright red. Elysia’s twin seemed to give off a cold and somewhat scary aura. It was as if the opposite of Elysia’s sweet and kind charms.
“Mio is taking care of everything in the control room. Uhm, Ellie, I want to record our activities here for myself personally. May I?” Erina grasped her hand to ask permission.
“You can record everything, Erina. All the cameras in this theater are fully managed by that control room, right? I only allow any recording of us to be yours. No one else is allowed to have a copy, let alone publication.” Elysia checked the cameras on the ceiling and then looked up at the control room. Mio was there.
“Mm, I want to capture this moment.” Erina waved her hand at Mio for a signal. She was also going to take lots of photos, and she had Elysia’s permission now. Everything was perfect.
“Erina, I’d like to introduce you to my friends. I hope you don’t mind.” Elysia stood aside. She will introduce Erina to everyone.
“I feel honored, Ellie.” Erina put her hand on her upper chest.
Elysia then introduced Erina to everyone and vice versa. After that, they opened their morning program with a collaborative musical performance between Erina, Elysia, Evelyn, and Lynn.
Music, dance, chat and even compose a beautiful melodic song together. They spend their time peacefully until noon.
Meanwhile, Elena’s group has just arrived at an ancient ruin near a volcano in North America. The starry night sky was completely covered by dark clouds, and the air temperature was hot.
“Let’s wrap this up quickly.” Elena asked everyone to act soon. She was moving with the Earth Mother and the deities of the Divine Association. So, this final operation should be easy.
“No. You all have to wait here first. Zhao Fu and I will negotiate and convince the Ancient Demon God to join us in the heavenly battle of Heaven Realm against the deviating Council.” Gaia shook her head.
“Very well, please bring this. Negotiation and persuasion don’t always work. Sometimes, violence is needed to make someone stubborn to understand. Burn this leaf if the situation gets bad. We will immediately come to your location and defeat that Ancient Demon God.” Lifa gave a small leaf to Gaia.
“I see. Wait for us a moment.” Gaia nodded in understanding. She then beckoned Zhao Fu to come with her into the ancient ruins.
