My Goddess is Good at Pretending

Chapter 392: Mommy, Baby and Their Savior

On a serene day, Elysia and Rhea embarked on a tranquil fishing trip. Their small boat gently bobbed on the calm surface of the sea. With the overcast sunlight casting a warm glow overhead and a gentle breeze ruffling their hair, they shared a special moment together amidst the peaceful waters.

Elysia sat at the stern of the boat. Her experienced hands expertly handle the fishing rod.

Seated beside her, the baby Rhea observed with wide-eyed wonder. Rhea’s curiosity was piqued by the sights and sounds of the sea. With her smol hands, she reached out to touch the sparkling water, giggling with delight as it splashed against her fingertips.

"Mama Ely, aren’t we fishing for fish?" Rhea looked at the bait in the distance. There were no fish eating the bait. It didn’t even have any hook, only floating bait.

"We’re not fishing for ordinary fish. Let’s wait a moment." Elysia opened her sakura parasol and stared at a particular island in the distance.

At that time, Elena had returned to Elysian Realm. Meanwhile, Ai and Zera camped in Elysia’s shadow, relaxing while observing the marine life around them. Lifa and Gaia went with team two to invite the monster overlords in Earth’s lower sphere.

As for Elysia, she wished to meet Althea, the future monster queen, in person for the first time. She occasionally emitted a subtle aura to lure Althea out.

As Althea’s family, the Phylum Clan would lead the monster’s side to create a beautiful, harmonious world in Earth’s lower sphere.

’Fufu, you want to put an investment and pay child support. But, hey, Ely... can we still call Althea your incarnation? She is half your creation. But, yeah... I guess it was a good test of Gaia’s divinity.’ Elena chuckled softly.

’Uhm, probably, yes... I can take over without Althea’s knowledge. Her clan would be easy to bully in their current state. That’s why I have to make them part of the alliance that will be formed. Althea will ascend the throne when she grows up. For those who don’t want to join... wish them luck~’ Elysia couldn’t help but chuckle.

The other factions who rejected the invitation would beg to join the alliance sooner or later, considering what her Guardian of Dream would offer at the Cube Island. As for those who would oppose the alliance and peace, nothing could be done other than wish them luck because it would put them in a predicament, eyed by many.

Several hundred meters from Elysia’s boat, the Phylum Tower was towering over a kilometer high. However, the tower was upside down and hidden under a seemingly uninhabited, ordinary island.

At that moment, Ophelia was still recovering to regain her queen’s prime power. She was still weakened and stuck at the SS-level.

However, she took her recovery easy because her priority was always her baby daughter.

"Now is our daily training session. Listen, Althea baby. Mommy will teach you our family’s advanced innate techniques. Today’s lesson is invisibility. Our kin can hide our presence and be transparent like this." Ophelia put her baby daughter in the student chair and demonstrated one of her skills.

Her super white skin and hair gradually become transparent, including her internal organs. Her bright blue eyes also gradually became transparent. She also hid her aura to ensure nobody could sense or detect her presence.

Like super clear water, she was still there but no one could see her. Even if someone were to touch her, they would be struck by the deadly venom and die.

She then revoked her invisible camouflage. "That’s it. Now it’s your turn."

"O-woah!" Althea clapped her hands in excitement. Her mommy could become like water and invisible.

Since her mommy could do it, then she could do it as well. Thus, she tried to put it into practice.

She just needed to think about herself being transparent, and her super white baby skin slowly changed color to become translucent.

"Wonderful~ I know my baby daughter is a genius above genius!" Ophelia clapped her hands in encouragement, happy that her baby daughter could do it in just one try.

*Plop*

Althea was pleased and continued her invisible camouflage as if she had become one with the water.

At that very moment, she sensed something was calling her and her soul resonated with that call. The presence was near, and it intrigued her about what or who was calling her with such a pleasant familiar aura.

"Perfect~ Now you can come out of your invisible camouflage, Althea baby." Ophelia was super satisfied. Her baby daughter could learn everything she taught in just a short time. It was only a matter of time until her baby daughter could rule over the seas.

"..."

Ophelia waited and kept waiting, but there was no response from her baby daughter. Her smile gradually vanished from her face and transformed into worry.

"My baby, Althea baby? Love? You can revoke the camouflage now." Ophelia approached the student chair, but she couldn’t find her baby daughter anywhere.

Althea’s aura was still so weak, and it was super difficult to spot her baby daughter in invisible camouflage!

"Oh, dear Heaven. Althea, my baby! Where are you, child?" Ophelia activated her queen instinct and motherly sense to detect her baby’s whereabouts.

*Creak*

Althea opened the door and swam into the outer corridor. Seeing that, Opehlia immediately swam after her baby.

The Phylum Tower was like a superclass dungeon with advanced levels of defense, especially on the deepest floors. However, Althea was the multiform jelly princess. She spotted a small gap and slipped out easily, thanks to her flexible smol body.

"Oh, no, my baby. Come back! Oh, dear... why do you suddenly want to go outside?" Ophelia tried to catch her baby, but her hand barely touched the invisible jelly princess.

She transformed her body into semi-liquid and immediately came out through the small gap, swimming into the outer ocean in a hurry to chase her baby.

The surrounding sea monsters immediately saluted and gave way to the multiform jelly queen, but Ophelia ignored them because her priority was to bring her baby back home.

She had no idea why her baby went towards the surface, but it was probably because of the baby’s broad curiosity. After all, she once mentioned the vast sea and wide world yesterday!

*Plop*

Althea revoked her invisible camouflage and emerged onto the sea surface. Her purplish-blue eyes sparkled with joy when she spotted the black-haired ethereal angel on a boat in the distance.

She had no idea about who that person was, but her heart told her to meet that angel.

"Hi~" Elysia waved her hand with a gentle smile.

"Ou!" Althea waved her hand too. Yet, the nearby colorful bait caught her attention, and she grabbed it.

The bait was captured, and Elysia brought Althea onto the boat. However, it looked as if Althea was a fish caught on a fisherman’s line. The multiform jelly princess fell into Elysia’s hands.

"Hehe! Jia jie!" Althea laughed with joy, greeting the ethereal angel with great fervor.

*Splash!*

Sea water seemed to explode from within, creating splashing waves and drizzling rain. Ophelia jumped out of the sea and stood on the surface, glaring at the nearby fisherman with a death glare. "You trespassed into my territory. Return my baby and leave immediately, or I will kill you."

Elysia just smiled in reply, but Ophelia interpreted it as a mockery.

"Hateful human... Then, don’t blame me, terrestrial creature!" Ophelia’s long white hair swayed like tentacles. Due to her unstable emotions, anger, and worry engulfed her mind, and she turned slightly reddish in color.

Since her baby was in the enemy’s hands, she had to ensure her baby would be unharmed. She had to save her baby daughter.

*Swoosh!*

Ophelia shot off like a missile and suddenly stopped right in front of the boat. She was about to strangle the black-haired girl, but the world suddenly spun.

"Reckless move. You need to manage your temper and measure the possible threats first before taking action. We harbor no malice, and you should already know that." Elysia dropped Ophelia onto the boat and held Ophelia’s back with one hand.

"Presumptuous!" Ophelia was still shocked by what had just happened, but her instincts immediately screamed of danger. Even so, she would never back down because she had to save her baby daughter.

Her semi-translucent long hairs fluctuated, entangling the black-haired human girl’s arm, ensuring her deadly venom and poison would put the offender into eternal rest.

*Smack!*

"Uh!?" Ophelia yelped in surprise because the opponent suddenly slapped her buttocks, and her power was suddenly sealed. "What have you done? Release me this instant!"

"Calm yourself and sit here with me. You wouldn’t be able to throw a tantrum if we wanted to hurt you in the first place." Elysia untangled Ophelia’s venomous long hair from her arm and helped the angry jelly queen to sit up before returning Althea to Ophelia’s arms.

"Hum?" Althea was confused and curious about what had just happened. She sensed it was just a misunderstanding, but her mommy was so bad for attacking the kind angel.

"Huh? What do you want then?" Ophelia immediately hugged her baby and took a safe distance.

"Hiya~" Rhea crawled out from behind Elysia and greeted the super white little jelly princess in a friendly manner.

"Owh, heh~" Althea was intrigued as she finally found a good friend. She tried to break free from her mommy’s embrace, but her mommy wouldn’t allow it.

"Pleased to meet you, Ophelia Phylum. My name is Ely. We have come to meet you and your baby princess. Do you still recognize the aura of mine?" Elysia radiated her divine aura.

"This aura..." Ophelia tried to recall this mysterious golden sacred aura. It was similar to what she faintly felt when she discovered her baby survived the harm and hatched safely a few days ago.

The divine aura... the one before her wasn’t a presumptuous terrestrial creature, but a divine being... her savior!

"Are, are you the one who saved me and my baby?" Ophelia tried not to believe it, but her soul beat strongly to tell her that it was the truth.
