My Goddess is Good at Pretending

Chapter 263: Training Session is Over

The time flow inside the Enlightenment Pagoda was about ten times slower than the outside world. Three days of training there was the same as cultivating in the heavenly cultivation spot for a month.

[Enlightenment Pagoda training session is over. Everyone will be ejected in five minutes!]

Alicia opened her eyes after her meditation. The time for the training session was almost over. Notification was given, and everyone would be teleported out of the pagoda in five minutes.

"..." Alicia looked to the side. She found Apostle Gabriella, Priestess Kirara, Holy Knight Myra, Saint Daemyx, and Saintess Bhaenera were still there, also finished with their meditation.

Of all the participants in the hard difficulty training, six of them took the most opportunities to cultivate in the cultivation spot.

After several hours of exploring the sea of stars with everyone to broaden their horizon, they decided to cultivate diligently and consolidate their foundation.

The six of them felt they had to improve their cultivation and overall capabilities by using the opportunities that had been presented. After all, they felt weaker than their seniors, who came from a different planet with their Supreme Goddess.

"Lady Myra, we haven’t talked much before. However, could you please enlighten me about your world?" Alicia grasped her hand on her lap, asking politely.

Myra tucked a strand of her long golden blonde hair behind her ear. She was about to stand up, but she sat back down in her cushion seat because someone was talking to her. "Sure, please."

"What is your world like? Is magic appreciated there, similar to this world and the Planet Vrelenia?" Alicia continued with her questions.

"Yes, magic or magical powers are appreciated in any world in Quadtria. Those endowed with powers are called special talents, the providences, the geniuses, or the chosen ones. It would be too long for me to explain the Chthonic World. Why don’t you visit our world? We, Elysion Church, will welcome you if you will visit, Lady Alicia." Myra spread her hands in invitation.

"The witches and I will eventually come to visit. However, we need to build our foundation first at Sacred Sakura. We just recently joined our Creator God’s main force, after all." Myra replied with a tactical nod. She would visit the other worlds, but not now.

"Lady Alicia, I previously heard from the conversation of the witches. Your previous world was so cruel to the magic users and cultivators. Is that true?" Bhaenera, the saintess, raised her hand.

"We, the witches, were created by the Creator God with the blessing of magic five thousand years ago. We were given the noble task of guiding humanity to the right path. However, the human leaders of the Ifiqar World eventually became afraid of our magical power. They can’t use magic, but they have weapons of mass destruction. The witches were hunted for decades, and only those of us who participated in this training are left." Alicia closed her eyes and shook her head slightly, feeling sad.

"That was so cruel... They are truly ungrateful and deserve to be punished." Bhaenera covered her hand in surprise.

"Our Creator God, Goddess Ely, picked us up and sent the grieved witches to the heavenly paradise. The humans received divine punishment. Her divine grace uprooted magic from that world. All magical resources will no longer be found. The end of the era of magic." Alicia replied with a tender gaze with no hatred in her eyes.

She had forgiven the humans, but she also no longer thought about anything related to humanity. She would only focus on serving Goddess Ely and improving herself to become a better servant.

"Hmm, that world’s humanity is not worthy of magic. However, please do not group this world’s humanity with that world. This world’s humanity has the good and the bad. As for us. We serve the light and fight the evil." Daemyx, the Saint, put his hand to his chest, expressing his wish for the witches not to hate all the humans.

But he felt relieved seeing the Witch Queen looking peaceful and neutral.

"Everything is fine now. We will just focus on serving our Supreme Goddess." Alicia reassured everyone.

"Our Goddess is so benevolent and merciful. However, some individuals claim to be her divine grace’s followers and yet still do heinous things prohibited by her teaching. After broadening my horizon, I think they don’t need to exist as our fellow people. We must clean the house before spreading our beliefs to other worlds." Bhaenera grasped her hands in prayer.

"The liars, hypocrites, and sinners deserve to be punished. We’ll never allow those vermin in the group." Gabriella nodded in agreement.

"Ah, Miss Gabriella. You are the newly created organization led by our Supreme Goddess’ divine daughter, Miko. May I know Sacred Sakura’s main goal?" Myra snapped out of her trance.

"We’re fighting the Heavenly Demons and their seeds. We’ve been training against the Ruvoids, and yes... the Heavenly Demons are similar to them, but without the super anti-magic." Gabriella didn’t hesitate to reveal Sacred Sakura and the Guardian of Dream’s sacred mission.

"How fascinating~ We’re also fighting the evil. As the Supreme Goddess’ faithful servants, we need to cooperate further. We plan to open the Elysion Chruch the Terra World to make our access easier. I hope Sacred Sakura can help us." Bhaenera stated her request.

"Wonderful. The Temple of Law shall help you as well. Although our principles are somewhat different, we have similar teachings and worship the same Supreme Goddess. We will help each other as a unity to serve our Supreme Goddess." Kirara was happy to help.

"With pleasure." Gabriella smiled in agreement. She didn’t mind helping the religion that worshiped her Goddess Master.

Bhaenera’s eyes were sparkling with joy. She already received the Temple of Law’s agreement, and High Priestess Ella would also help. With the addition of Sacred Sakura, everything would run incredibly smoothly.

After five minutes, all participants on all three floors were teleported out of the Enlightenment Pagoda.

Elysia’s group was waiting at the gathering ground. Their space exploration ended with the mining of many resources. Still, they did not find any living creatures within a three hundred million kilometer radius of the Quadtria.

Therefore, the event indirectly took place like a family trip in outer space for three days.

Over two thousand people emerged from the pagoda and stood on the gathering ground, energized with beaming faces.

All of them received the tremendous gifts bestowed by the Supreme Goddess. Most of them also managed to break through to the next rank and got enlightened to the great truth.

Everyone felt blessed and grateful to attend such an event.

"Congratulations to all of you on your achievements. Three days or thirty days of training time is over. This event will be held every three months until next year." Miko went up to the podium and announced the end of the practice event.

Most people were excited because such an event would be held frequently. Miko’s following words made them feel special.

"You are the chosen ones with great faith and capabilities. We expect great things from you. For future events, we expect the new good followers with good faith and talent to participate in the Enlightenment Pagoda training session to comprehend the Dao and great truth. Also, ensure sufficient resources, merit points or exchange deals because there are so many amazing things in the shop. You can discuss the details with Sakura, including the division of participation limits." Miko emphasized the last sentence and pointed her hand at the nearby pink spirit.

She knew some participants went bankrupt because they bought many things from the shop. Regardless, everything was returned to those participants because they wanted many things.

Sakura nodded in agreement. She received the responsibility of being a shopkeeper, and she still remembers the faces of people who ran out of merit points because they wanted to maximize the opportunities within the Enlightenment Pagoda. Participants would need to be well-prepared to participate next time because all the items in her shop were not free.

Since the training event was over, everyone had to return to their respective bases. However, they were a bit reluctant to leave even though there were many things they needed to do and implement from the results of the enlightenment they received.

The participants wished to seek the Supreme Goddess’ guidance before returning. Therefore, they stayed the night at Sacred Mountain.

The next day, the representatives from each faction received some guidance from Elysia. After that, Elysia gave them a little parting gift.

All the participants present were mostly the chosen ones at the top of the fruitful believers list. Thus, she didn’t need to think twice about blessing them with a gift.

"Your Divine Grace, we’re honored to receive your guidance. We shall build the Elysion Church in this Terra World to serve you better." Bhaenera accepted the gift with respect.

"Mm, this is the crossing world’s teleportation array. You can go to the Terra World and Caelum World quickly and safely. Our people will help you. However, please read the guidebook thoroughly." Elysia tapped the wooden box once before handing it over to the Elysion Church’s holy saintess.

"This servant understands. Then, we shall bid our farewell. With your blessings, we will spread your teaching for a better world." Bhaenera bowed respectfully, followed by the saint, holy knight, and other Goddess Ely’s faithful followers.

Ella, Ariel, Evelyn, Kirara, and Miko’s disciples also excused themselves as they had to do several things for Elysion Church.

The other factions also bid their farewell after receiving guidance and gifts from their Goddess, including the mermaids.

"Please be careful. The Mermaid Kingdom will face the storm in the near future, but I’m sure you can get through it." Dory tapped Scarlet’s shoulders.

"Mm, thank you. It’s all for our Goddess. Her Divine Grace blessed us with otherworldly power and thorough preparation for even the worst scenario. We shall withstand the storm and build the beautiful ocean." Scarlet reassured her mermaid sister.

She had trained herself to kill the Sea Emperor and other influential powerhouses in the Mind Simulation several times. The results were quite satisfying. She was confident in her new capabilities.

Dory then took Scarlet to the Mermaid Kingdom using teleportation before returning to her master’s side.

"Phew... It’s over." Elysia wiped her non-existent sweat. Everyone went to do their respective tasks, leaving only a few people from her family members and Miko’s core disciples.

"He-hee~ But, mama... aren’t we going to look for the foxkin’s sealed secret realm and tell them the outside world is already safe for foxkin?" Miko chuckled next to her mama.

"Hmm, no rush. They probably don’t need it because they already live peacefully in their sealed secret realm and don’t want to be disturbed. How about we paint a masterpiece together?" Elysia raised an idea, and it made Miko incredibly excited and happy.
