Chapter 164: Unexpected Turn of Event
Chapter 164: Unexpected Turn of Event
"Elena, hmm... She must be a great Goddess..." The little Goddess muttered blankly for a moment. Then, she gave the response she should have given after Elysia had finished speaking.
"Eh, yes, how can I know, O Elysia girl? In the last six months, I had never sent my avatar to the world, while my real body was still in the deep slumber..."
"I didn't know anything about it. All I know is a huge phenomenon that engulfed almost the entire southern forest of this continent. Um, is it your master?" The Little Goddess made an assumption that couldn't be more than correct.
"Ah, um, yes..." Elysia could only admit that straight away, there was no point in diverting facts in a circle.
Other than that, her guess was also proven right. This little Goddess didn't know anything. Although a little disappointed, she had to accept it. Maybe some other God or Goddess could be more helpful?
"Oh! I want to meet your master soon, where is she at this time? I have to say hi~" No other expression other than joy, the little Goddess suddenly became a little girl who wanted to meet someone great.
"Uhh... Please forgive me, my master, she may be somewhere, and it may take some time to grant your wish... I came to a well-known academy, in the capital of Aeddoterra Kingdom to study and find out some things..." It took a lot of courage for Elysia to say that to the little Goddess. It wasn't an accurate answer, but also not a lie.
"I see..." The excitement that rose all of a sudden fell back to the ground. The little Goddess lowered her shoulders in a slight disappointment.
Once again, it was only for a moment. The little Goddess regained her composure quickly to bring back the things she said a moment ago. Currently, for some reason, this young girl made her plunge into a somewhat chaotic mood swing.
"Alright, I will also be able to meet with her later. From what I said earlier, Elysia girl. You are in a special circumstance, but I was right with what I said and won't take it back..."
"Even though I can't make you my first disciple because you already have a master, I can still make you my goddisciple. Saa, now, greet your godmaster." The little Goddess said that with confidence.
As for Elysia, she became quite astonished at the announcement. Goddisciple and godmaster, since when did such a term exist? All she knew, it was godchild and godparent or something...
'Hehe... Just greets her as she told you, Ely... As the Goddess of Blessings, of course, hehe...' Elena giggled cheerfully. She was so cunning and persistent. She already knew what this little Goddess wanted to achieve.
'Un.' Elysia understood more than what Elena said. Their thoughts were connected and very quickly conveyed to each other.
"Elysia Avery greet the Goddess of Blessings." Elysia gave a greeting with a salute hand gesture, like a martial artist in a fantasy story.
"Ehhh..." The little Goddess looked surprised. This was not what she expected. Even though this young girl didn't kneel, wasn't that greeting wrong? What she had prepared won't work either...
"Um, is there something wrong, the Goddess of Blessings?" Noticing the little Goddess's dumbfounded expression, Elysia asked with a slight worry.
"Yes, there is something wrong with the way you greet your godmaster."
"Can I find out what I did wrong?"
Seeing the young girl's innocent expression before her, the little Goddess let out a soft sigh. "It's in the final pronoun intended for me. It should be there, for me, not the Goddess of Blessings, but godmaster."
"You are not the Goddess of Blessings?" Elysia just blinked repeatedly with an expression of surprise. She checked the little Goddess's status one more time to make sure, but there were no mistakes.
"Erm... The Goddess of Blessings is me. Umm, there's a mistake..."
While the Little Goddess was thinking for a moment to correct her previous sentence, Elysia messed up her thoughts once again.
"Did the Goddess of Blessings and I make a mistake?"
"No, wait a moment, the one who made a mistake regarding that greeting is you, O Elysia girl."
"Okay, I beg your forgiveness, I made a mistake." Elysia apologized respectfully with a slight bow, like a martial artist again...
"Uah! You little! It should be 'this goddisciple greet godmaster'! Why can't you understand it!" The little Goddess threw her tantrum. She couldn't take it anymore, a bit like the pissed little girl.
"Hm!" Unfortunately, shortly after, the tantrum like fury immediately turned into a shout of surprise.
The little Goddess saw the thread of energy suddenly came out from her, and it immediately shot to the head of the young girl in front of her. She felt that something was missing from her Upper Dantian.
Elysia could also see the subtle yellow energy from the little Goddess appearing suddenly and then darting at her. She touched her forehead a moment afterward to check it.
What she felt right now was similar to when Vanessa pledged her loyalty as her contracted beast. Just, this unique energy was milder than Vanessa's spirit bonding to her.
"You can see the energy thread that just came to you?" The little Goddess, still in her stunned expression, pointed at Elysia. And the girl who didn't understand just nodded her head in response.
"Uaaaa! I should be your godmaster, your elder, your patron, your master beside your original master! And it's not for me to make you my godmaster!"
The little Goddess suddenly forgot how to stay in the air without flapping her wings. She rolled on the floor with tears in her eyes, much like a little girl asking her parents to buy a doll.
"Now, me, this glorious Goddess of Blessings, has become the goddisciple of a young girl who is still 16 years old?" She lamented, remembering where things went wrong all of a sudden.
'Pfft! Ely, you are so savage, hehe... With just your words, you can make a goddess cry on the floor of fufu...' Elena couldn't help but laugh as she praised her sweet little sister.
This outcome was unexpected for them. What became Elena and Elysia's suspicion was the Goddess of Blessings that suddenly became attracted to Elysia's master's figure. By raising Elysia as her disciple, this puny Goddess clearly kept a hidden agenda that she purposely didn't tell Elysia.
Elena said that, and Elysia became an obedient girl who quickly understood. She immediately reversed her sentence, so she didn't have to say the precise sentence requested by the Goddess of Blessings. Who would have thought that it was for something with magic or ritual like this...
'I, I didn't know it would be like this? You're helping me with this, right, Sister Elena? So, it's not just me... But, did the Goddess of Blessings intend to bind me as her disciple by this unknown bond? She wanted this, only for the sake of my master, namely us?' Elysia asked in wonder, somewhat surprised.
'Then what else could it be? She was so adamant about it. Of course, she has some business with your master, Ely hehe... We didn't know much about this puny Goddess yet. We'll find out later.' Elena felt so amused by the behavior of the puny Goddess.
Unlike Elena that was still giggling in amusement, Elysia couldn't be like that at all when she was the cause of the little Goddess's sobs.
Before Elysia could squat down and try to cheer up the little Goddess, neither to find out the reason for the little Goddess's sadness that she didn't know yet... The little Goddess suddenly flew back into the air, making eye contact with Elysia.
"You! You must have done that on purpose, right? Meanie, when I had good intentions for you. You couldn't possibly know the master-disciple bound ritual method... I'm sure your master has guided you to fool this careless me, right? She's around, right? Where is she now? Let me meet her and teach her some lessons!" The little Goddess threw her tantrum with great fury and some tears like the bullied little girl.
While Elysia was confused and overwhelmed by how to dissolve the situation, Elena came as her savior. 'Ely, if you're confused, can we swap roles for a moment? Let me educate this mischievous puny Goddess who dares to try to grab my sweet little sister.'
Quickly, Elysia closed her eyes, and her consciousness entered the Soul Realm, returning to her spirit. After that, Elena's consciousness immediately took over Elysia's body before it could give a motion as if it was going to fall.
Elena smirked at the shocked little Goddess, and the latter knew this young girl in front of her was no longer Elysia.
"Yes, that's me. What is your problem, O puny Goddess?" Elena spoke with a lofty attitude as if the Goddess of Blessings was nothing in her eyes.
She really didn't like it when anyone dared to fool or deceive her sweet little sister, and this puny Goddess did that. Whatever the reason, and whatever the intention, she didn't care. Dislike remains dislike. There was no need for excuses.
Now, since she had the power to do so, she preferred to step in and lend a helping hand, unlike her time as a spectator on Earth, her helpless self.
