My Goddess is Good at Pretending

Chapter 526: Preliminary Lesson

"Uhm, am I coming a bit early?" The Emerald Drunkard Immortal landed on the training field, carrying a big jug of wine on his back. He was wondering because the training ground was still relatively quiet.

"That’s still half an hour away. The Supreme Goddess will arrive exactly at the appointed time." The Empyrean Dove checked his timer, waiting leisurely in his seat.

"Keke, today is a practical class. After two weeks of theory class, it’s time to seek some pointers from the almighty and show off my flawless comprehension talent." The Emerald Drunkard Immortal laughed confidently.

"Hmm, just don’t embarrass yourself and become a laughing stock later. Also, don’t try to get drunk near me. Shoo, you reek of alcohol and smell really bad, smelly old man." The Empyrean Dove covered his face and moved away as the Emerald Drunkard Immortal approached him.

"Keke, the smell of wine is intoxicating. Only little boys can’t appreciate this kind of fragrance." The Emerald Drunkard Immortal frowned, but he put the matter aside.

The Heavenly Agents and the Lord of Heaven had yet to arrive at the training ground. The Heavenly Palace’s affiliates were also only half present. Since waiting was a bit boring, the Emerald Drunkard Immortal went to the nearby cool guy, offering a cup of wine. "Yo, Blue Star Immortal Sovereign. Would you like to hear a riddle while enjoying a wine? I brought a new good stuff."

"Don’t bother me right now, drunkard." The Blue Star Immortal Sovereign replied coldly, still crossing his arms with his eyes closed.

"Keke, you’re only gentle with ladies, huh... But, do you know what you call the best deal for women?" The Emerald Drunkard Immortal shrugged his shoulders and took a sip of his wine.

"???" The Blue Star Immortal Sovereign’s eyebrows twitched. His serene state of mind was disturbed by a sudden chatterbox, but the Emerald Drunkard Immortal’s riddle made him somewhat curious. "What is it?"

"It’s called a deal do." The Emerald Drunkard Immortal smirked in reply and the hiccuped.

"Deal do... what kind of deal is that?" The Blue Star Immortal Sovereign discovered the phrase was new, but he had no idea of ??its meaning despite his eons of knowledge and wisdom.

"Gosh... you don’t understand it? Keke, you’re a gentleman, but you’re so clueless. You should probably ask a lady for the answer." The Emerald Drunkard Immortal was taken aback, but he just laughed it off because the other party missed his joke.

Unfortunately, the Blue Star Immortal Sovereign truly asked the nearest lady about it. The lady was

The Goddess of Spring was clueless at first, but after she thought about it once more, she became a bit embarrassed. "Wha, why do you ask such a thing with an upright face?"

"So, what kind of deal, is it? The Emerald Drunkard Immortal told me about this." The Blue Star Immortal Sovereign pointed his thumb at the drunkard old man in the back seat.

"Oh, gosh... why are you still asking with this innocent, curious expression? Hey, you, shameless drunkard thing. What are you trying to teach the Blue Star Immortal Sovereign?" The Goddess of Spring sprang forward, throwing the blame to the shameless old man.

"Dear God of Heaven... you really ask that of a lady?" The Emerald Drunkard Immortal went aghast, full of disbelief.

"You asked me for it. Or, are you trying to play with me?" The Blue Star Immortal Sovereign frowned, feeling displeased. He wanted to know the real meaning behind the riddle’s answer because he was curious about the best deal for a woman.

"..." The Emerald Drunkard Immortal averted his gaze because he didn’t dare to explain more, especially when the bashful Goddess of Spring was blaming him for it.

"May I know what you are talking about?" Elysia put her hands together with a gentle smile, greeting the nearby lively students.

Everyone near the training ground’s entrance immediately paid their respect to Elysia, Elysium Goddesses, and the Heavenly Agents behind her. Since the question was asked, the Blue Star Immortal Sovereign sought enlightenment directly from the Supreme Goddess of Mysterious Origin.

"Such a cute guy, but you take such a joke too seriously. Also, you shouldn’t ask it to a lady. Here, I shall enlighten you about the details." Elysia opened her Sacred Heaven Grimoire and sent the notification screen to enlighten the curious student about the knowledge he sought.

"!?" The Blue Star Immortal Sovereign gasped in shock. The meaning was nothing extraordinary, and it was really a joke from the drunkard. The obscene, mortal thing...

The Blue Star Immortal Sovereign went pale in that instant. He immediately apologized and grabbed the Emerald Drunkard Immortal by the collar. "You’re a dead meat."

"Hey, is it my fault? You are usually a cool guy to my pleasantries and jokes, keke." The Emerald Drunkard Immortal felt like laughing, but he knew the situation was complicated.

"..." He-Dao held his forehead. Sacred Heaven Grimoire was indirectly connected to his heavenly laws, and Elysia innocently tried to find the explanation via his divinity!

"You two... please go to the disciplinary committee room after the class." Yuna stared at the Emerald Drunkard Immortal and the Blue Star Immortal Sovereign with obvious disdain. It was as if she looked at insects. Elysia would answer the student’s question when asked, but how dare they ask such a thing to the Supreme Goddess?!

"Yes, ma’am..." The Emerald Drunkard Immortal and the Blue Star Immortal Sovereign looked a the ground.

"Return to your seats as we shall begin the class soon." Elysia announced and went to the stage. Elena and Zi Xuan followed by her side as assistant and secretary respectively.

Because today’s class would be specifically for practice lessons, the introduction and instruction were still needed before the real practice would begin.

When the appointed time arrived, all the students were already present in the training ground. Elysia began with the practice’s preparation, explanations, and instructions.

After that, she left the students with the preliminary practice lesson. She stood on the stage, watching the students with their improved technique as they tried various ways to destroy the cursed orb.

’I still feel a bit in disbelief... I somehow became a teacher for many high-rank Gods and Immortals. There’s not much to teach. I’m just spouting nonsense, but why do they all seem to understand something and consider it a divine revelation? They somehow always got enlightened by my random nonsense...’ Elysia kept her expression and attitude graceful and composed, but her mind spoke otherwise.

’Where’s the random nonsense, my Lil Ellie? Look at them. By seeing how diligent and enthusiastic they are, it’s easy to tell that they really find the knowledge you teach to be extremely useful.’ Elena patted Elysia’s back.

’The cultivating thing is pretty easy to handle, and luckily this isn’t our first encounter with such great evil stuff.’ Elysia felt really relieved.

If it weren’t for such a thing, it would be hard for her to maintain her role which somehow everyone considered as the Supreme One even though she was still a newly ascended divinity.

’Oh my~ That’s it. They don’t see you below them. With so many high-rank Gods and Immortals at your service, we’ll make good use of them like how they try to use us. Is not that true? We’ll harvest something out of them.’ Elena considered it.

Their relationship with these Gods and Immortals started from He-Dao’s misunderstanding upon Elysia’s divine sealing crystal arrival to this world. Regardless, he was so lucky to encounter Elysia.

With Elysia’s evil nemesis innate ability and imaginary divinity, the possibility of winning in the Nirvana Great War increased drastically. The current event was also a mutual benefit where Elysia taught the students and helped them to face the great adversary, and they paid the fees and bestowed everything that Elysia requested.

*Shatter*

He-Dao became the fastest among the other 255 students to destroy the corrupted orb. The orb possessed the Ruvoid’s traits, but he treated it and the follow-up heavenly curse like a breeze.

It was like what one would expect from the Lord of Heaven. After all, he was still the strongest one in the Divine World. He also had already trained against the Ruvoid God in the simulated battle before.

As it was still the preliminary lesson before the real combat training, the students had to destroy the corrupted orb in their own ways. The secrets and key methods had been presented at the two previous meetings, and each student had to put what they had learned into practice.

"I did it!"

"Not bad."

Amy and Yuna became the 2nd and 3rd to finish the preliminary lesson.

"..." The Heavenly Moon Sovereign was still trying his best. He still couldn’t believe he was struggling to handle the heavenly curse when the Lord of Heaven finished it with ease.

The cursed orb, as the name would suggest. It carried a random type of heavenly-tier curse upon destruction. It also possessed anti-magic, damage immunity, and some troublesome traits.

’Is the gap between myself and him still so vast despite his millennia of abstaining in cultivation?’ The Heavenly Moon Sovereign wondered in his mind.

In his last attempt, he used his secret mystic art to deal true damage imbued with divine law. The orb crumbled into dust, and the low-tier heavenly curse began to dissipate.

"Ack!" The Goddess of Spring got her right hand corrupted by the heavenly curse. The curse spread to her arm within a second as she failed to suppress the curse in time.

"Calm down. Not everyone has a high-level anti-evil affinity. Use the prepared anti-evil magic item to strengthen your evil suppression technique. Use the imbued purification to suppress the curse and force it out of your body." Elysia reminded everyone as she could see some people were struggling with the real practice.
