My Goddess is Good at Pretending

Chapter 308: Ready to Depart

Time passed peacefully in the Sacred Sakura’s region. The guests were asked to return because the Sacred Sakura Goddess had relayed her command.

Only the first batch of guests were lucky enough to be graced by her presence. However, no one complained, considering the significant events for tomorrow.

Also, Sacred Sakura promised an opportunity to explore the unexplored secret realm of the Divine World for those who assisted Sacred Sakura in the recent invasion.

As the night deepened, Elysia and her Elysium went into the Nature Realm to rest. Miko was also present there, leaving her core disciples outside.

"..." Gabriella stared at a tiny realm portal hidden near the Sacred Sakura Tree, guarded by the pink spirit, Sakura.

That realm portal was not wholly closed for reasons she did not know, but she and her fellow disciples were not invited to visit that private world...

"We are not yet worthy to set foot into the holy realm beyond the mortal boundary. We need to prepare ourselves and have enough rest for tomorrow. Also, our Goddess Master gifted us with a blessing of wisdom. We need to form a bond with our prospective divine weapons." Gabriella came with the reason and looked at the white crystal orb in her hand.

Nine core disciples also looked at their respective white crystal orbs. Before their Goddess Master left, she bestowed them a blessing of wisdom, the divine treasure referred to as the unformed artifact.

Their prospective divine weapon or artifact would follow their compatibility in spiritual bonding to become an item that would suit them best.

"Then, I shall take my leave first. I need a proper beauty sleep and try to bond with it spiritually during my sleep. I hope to show my prospective divine weapon to Goddess Ely tomorrow morning~" Jophiel waved her hand in farewell.

Her Goddess Master’s words a few minutes ago still rang in her mind. Their Goddess Master had high hopes and expectations for them, and they should not disappoint her after all the facilities and the best treatment they received.

"Then, I also need to take my leave."

"Get enough rest, and we’ll rock the world tomorrow."

"Hum."

"See you tomorrow morning!"

"Hehe, I can’t wait to see what kind of divine weapon will be formed from my wisdom blessing orb."

The core disciples bid their farewell and went to their respective rooms as there were many things they needed to prepare.

Gabriella was the last one to leave the shrine’s courtyard. She waved her hand to Sakura and then went to her room.

The little pink spirit stared at everyone’s leaving figures before returning to her main body, the Sacred Sakura Tree.

As the night passed, Elysia was still sleeping soundly in her room. Her fluffy little friends lay sleeping around her, and the other Elysium members rested in their beds.

At that moment, Luna, Lynn, and Yusagi were still comfortably snuggled close to their master. However, Vanessa and Yuuki were already awake, trying to wake their master like they often did years ago.

The little white cat and the nine-tailed snow fox went closer to their master’s face to give some facial licks.

Elysia woke up shortly after she felt the soft, moist, and slightly rough texture come into contact with her cheeks several times.

"Mhm, it’s already morning. Did you sleep well?" Elysia hugged the white cat and the nine-tailed snow fox.

"Mm, yes. Sleeping near you is always a pleasant experience, master." Vanessa stated her heart’s desire. It was her comfort and the highest gift that she could receive in her life.

If she thought about it again... even though her master had already reached the divine beyond the mortal boundary, her master still allowed her to lick her master’s face to show her affection like years ago. They started as friends, but she thinks it would be nice to be pets now.

Elysia gave some gentle care to Vanessa and Yuuki. As the mofu-mofu and fuwa-fuwa fluffy skinship unfolded, Vanessa and Yuuki melted under Elysia’s touch. The other fluffy little friends soon woke up and craved it as well, and they got the attention they deserved.

"I’m so jelly. Eve, you shared a dorm with Ely at the magic academy five years ago. Did she often give you some head pats and caress like them?" Sylvia pointed at the fluffy little ones with apparent jealousy.

"You want to get Master Ely’s attention too, little devil? Come over there and request it." Morfina smiled in amusement while smoothing her long golden hair.

Elysia looked right and left. Elena was in the Elysian Realm, Ai and Zera in her shadow. Yet, her remaining Goddess sisters were outside the palace, preparing something with Xentia.

She then woke up her plushie doll next to her. "It’s almost time for us to leave. Miko, wake up."

"..." The little shrine maiden plushie snuggled closer to Elysia’s tummy, feeling lazy and reluctant to get up.

Elysia just smiled in reply and carried her little plushie doll. She approached Sylvia to give a head pat as she knew Sylvia also wanted some attention. Still, in the end, everyone received the skinship that seemed to touch their souls with tender and gentle care.

After that, Elysia invited everyone to leave the palace.

"Oh, you came just on time, Ely. We will depart using this space warship to the Sacrlet Domain Secret Realm." Lifa waved her hand at Elysia.

"Happy morning, master. Today will be filled with many events. I can barely sleep because I’m full of anticipation, master." Rhea greets her master and puts her hand on her master’s arm.

"Uh, are we going to the Divine World tomorrow? What about Maia’s unknown secret realm? Aren’t we going to the other world first? The Vrelenia and Earth?" Miko rubbed her face in her mama’s arms, behaving like a good plushie doll.

"Morning, everyone. Everything is good. We will teach them a valuable lesson with this cool spaceship." Elysia stroked Miko’s head in her arms, staring in amazement at the cool-looking war spaceship before her.

She then looked down, looking at Miko. "We will send Megami to the Divine World tomorrow to send the injured Amy back home to recover. Megami will uncover the Heavenly Realm’s unspoken matters before we help the Heaven Order. And~ we will leave for Vrelenia next week."

"We’re going to visit Vrelenia next week!? Woah, wow!" Sylvia was pleasantly surprised. It had been a while since she met her father, and he would be surprised to find she had already surpassed him by a large margin.

She immediately shared her excitement with her fellow sisters as she knew she wasn’t the only one who wanted to revisit Vrelenia after five years.

Elysia smiled as she was also happy. Almost everyone anticipated their visit to Vrelenia. However, some girls weren’t enthusiastic because they didn’t care about Vrelenia. Nevertheless, they were delighted to follow their master everywhere.

"O-oh~" Miko nodded in understanding. However, she then wondered whether sending just her elder sister there alone would be okay. It was not just to bring the injured Amy back to recover, after all.

However, she was relieved to find her mama’s smile indicating that it would be fine even though He-Dao and his accomplices would play tricks on them.

"Hm~ This is the battleship class, ES Armageddon, master." Xentia proudly introduced her war spaceship.

It might look like another spaceship in the ES Nirvana arsenal. Regardless, this spaceship was the one that possessed the highest defense and firepower. It was just invisible when in standby mode.

Xentia sent her command, and ES Armageddon soon entered offensive mode, showing off its cannons and guns, including the hidden ones and the massive hyper railgun.

"Wow, it’s our Xenia’s rigging miracle~" Elysia clapped her hands excitedly. She was fond of cool mecha, and the futuristic spaceship wouldn’t be left behind.

Elysia looked aside, or more precisely, at the flying super-class mothership in the backyard.

ES Nirvana would still hold the honor of the strongest spaceship. Even though it resembled a flying disk-shaped island the size of a city, that super-class space mothership possessed the apocalypse-level fire power to wipe out a civilization from a planet and a star.

"The preparations are finished. We can leave at any time." Fortuna checked the report screen.

"You finished everything so early. We’re not in a rush. It’s been a while since you got proper sleep, right?" Elysia tilted her head slightly.

Her Goddess sisters hadn’t had a break in the last two weeks. Even though it was half a month of meditation, they would need a proper beauty sleep. Elena, Ai, and Zera listened to her to rest like the good girls, but the others were too excited for future events.

"We woke up early and well... Xentia also wanted to prepare everything early. Also, we got proper rest. Xentia’s mechs and dolls are the ones that carry out all the preparations while we sleep." Nell explained a little, knowing Elysia was strict, like a worrywart mother.

"Okay. Since all the preparations are done, then we should depart right now. No rush. We will have family breakfast on the way." Elysia gave Nell a good head pat with her finger.

After that, she summoned the opened realm portal and enlarged it. The war spaceship and everyone soon left the Nature Realm.
