Chapter 463: Erase Memories
Chapter 463: Erase Memories
The unexpected guests had a precious conversation with the divine beings. It was a rare opportunity where they could exchange words and gain enlightenment at the same time.
Not long after that, Arthur and his family came into the room to visit as well.
"Excuse me. Ah, looks like we came back at the right time." Amelie put her hands together with a warm smile.
"It's good to see you're in good health, Queen Amelie. But I suggest you get plenty of rest." Elysia gave a kind suggestion. The queen still looked a bit pale, and she didn't wish anything wrong to happen.
"Hm? Why does your lovely voice sound so familiar to me?" Amelie put her hand to her cheek as she started asking in wonder.
Bat, she just ruled that out. "Thank you for your advice. I will get some rest after conveying my gratitude to my saviours."
"Uhh... Please forgive me about this. But, my wife insists on going to see you immediately. I've asked her to see you later, but she will only go alone because she wants to express her gratitude as soon as possible." Arthur scratched his head with a dry laugh.
"Please forgive my mother. She is a bit stubborn when she has decided upon something, Elysia." Theo also felt overwhelmed because of his mother.
"Hm, alright..." Elysia looked left and right. Unfortunately, all the sofas were occupied, and there was nothing left for the new guests.
"Oh, you don't have to worry, Elysia." Arthur took out a long sofa from his Space Bag for his family to sit on.
"Greetings, noble Goddesses. Once again I thank you for saving the life of my wife, the Goddess of Light, Elysia. This may sound a little presumptuous on my part, but what about your condition, o the Goddess of Light?" Arthur gave a respectful bow. His son followed suit, and so did his wife.
"You don't have to worry about me. I just need a good night's sleep, but I have promised my disciples about our agenda for today." Elena waved her hand in front of her face.
"If you say so." Arthur nodded and sat on the sofa with his family.
"Ah, so you are Elysia. Such a beautiful and charming girl. Why don't you come over and have a warm conversation with me?" Amelie patted the seat next to her while glancing at Elysia and her son.
'Ufufu, Ely. Even if it's not said, I know that the queen seems to want to set you up for her son. What are you going to do? Huhu, I'm wondering~' Elena hummed playfully via telepathy.
'I...' Elysia became doubtful about the attitude she needed to take.
However, at that moment, Rhea tugged her sleeve for attention. 'Master Elysia, this is a good opportunity to erase the nightmare memory fragments in that woman's subconscious mind as suggested by my mother. I will do that for you, but please watch over me until nightfall. Also, please wake me up when we are about to start the? special recovery formation.'
'Eh? Why do you say that, Rhea? Will you receive a backlash? You haven't fully recovered yet, have you? It's quite risky for you to use your divine magic in your current state.' Elysia threw a barrage of questions like a worried mother.
'Worry not, Master Elysia. I will only fall into sleep for a few hours. In fact, such magic is quite easy for me to perform, even in my current condition.' Rhea tried to convince Elysia. She thought it would be troublesome if they waited for another chance.
'Sleep, um? If so, then fine. But, you should stop immediately if you feel there is any hint of backlash, understand?' Elysia agreed but on one condition. She couldn't let her Rhea get hurt.
'Okay!' Rhea raised her hands as if asking to be carried.
Elysia just smiled seeing that. She got up from her seat by carrying Rhea and moved next to Amelie. "What kind of conversation would you like to have with this little girl, Queen Amelie."
"Mm, before that... I'm very grateful to you, the Goddess of Light, and also to you Elysia. I've heard from my husband. I--" Amelie started babbling almost without pause. She just took a light breath and continued speaking to convey her many forms of gratitude.
Elysia just smiled helplessly, hearing all the chatter from the queen. One thing that surprised her was that the Emperor informed the queen that the Goddess of Light and herself cured the queen of a severe unknown disease. After that, Arthur was the one who managed to wake up his wife with a romantic touch.
It sounded like a fairy tale, a lie, and peppered with bullshit. Arthur had put a lot of effort into coming up with an ideal scenario to explain his wife's plight for thirty-six years.
"Ah, uhm, I see, Queen Amelie." Elysia felt overwhelmed to deal with a chatterbox. She glanced at Elena for help, but the latter just looked at her with amusement. The others even just watched her with great enthusiasm.
"Hmmm!" Amelie nodded repeatedly. Then, she gave her attention to the little girl on Elysia's lap. "If I didn't know that you were a divine being, I might have pinched your cheeks and stroked your head. I couldn't help it because you look so cute. Please forgive me."
Rhea just looked up at Amelie and gave a beckoning hand gesture.
As if understanding the sign, Amelie brought her face closer, curious about what the Goddess of Nature would do to her.
*Flick*
Rhea just flicked Amelie's forehead. In that super short time of touch, she immediately sent her magic to erase the sealed terrible memory.
"Eh? Uuu, have I fallen out of favor with a divine being? What should I do? What should I do?" Amelie was surprised and reflexively straightened her back. She clutched her forehead as she muttered frantically.
"Fwuaahh..." Rhea yawned, and Elysia covered her mouth gently.
"Aah, looks like you're already sleepy." Elysia didn't expect Rhea to finish everything with just a flick.
"En." Rhea just found a comfortable position in Elysia's arms and immediately closed her eyes. His breathing became soft and steady a moment later.
"Looks like I can only accompany you for the conversation until here, Queen Amelie. Allow me to excuse myself." Elysia pleaded with herself politely.
"Well, it was a pleasant conversation with you." Amelie nodded in understanding. A glint appeared in her eyes once more as she looked at Elysia, then at her son.
Elysia just smiled kindly. She stood up from her seat and went to her room.
Theo seemed to understand what his mother had in mind. He looked at Elysia's back with some thoughts in mind and subconsciously called out her name. "Elysia."
"Hmm?" Elysia stopped in her tracks and looked back.
"No, it's nothing." Theo just shook his head.
Elysia just nodded and walked away. She also didn't forget to excuse herself to the other guests.
By the time Elysia and Rhea had entered the room. Elena looked at everyone. "Then?"
"Ehm, looks like it's time for us to return to the palace. My wife needs intensive care and also enough rest. That's all from us. Peace and health, please allow us to excuse ourselves." Arthur said his goodbyes by standing up.
After paying a bow to the Goddesses, he invited his son to leave. He also dragged his wife away because the latter still wanted to stay.
"Apparently, it's also time for us to return." Rosie felt a little awkward because Elysia was gone and didn't seem to be coming back any time soon.
"Then me too. Please give these gifts to Elysia." Rosa put all the shopping bags on the table.
"Mkay! I'll give those gifts to Ely. You can go and I won't send you off." Sylvia immediately took all the bags and walked away to Elysia's room. She just wanted to take a look at the sleeping divine being.
Rosa just scratched her head. Apparently, she was a little rude to the red-eyed girl by accident.
She just wondered about the red eyes, but it seemed the girl was offended. After all, perhaps those red-eyed possessors also had their own problems because they were said to be very similar to devils.
After the guests left, Elena just took a deep breath and let it out slowly. For some reason, she started to feel sleepy. Therefore, she only went to Elysia's room to lie down.
Nell also followed shortly after.
Meanwhile, Yuuki only exchanged glances with Gio and the little beasts.
Vanessa just shrugged her shoulders and decided to go to her master. However, others also followed her.
"Ely, allow me to lie down. I will take care of our cute baby in sleep." Despite asking for permission, Elena simply lay down beside Rhea.
"Ho, hey, slow down please." Elysia reminded Elena, then looked at a pile of walking shopping bags.
"Ely, I put all these gifts here, okay?" Sylvia put all the shopping bags on the sofa.
She immediately darted to the side of the bed to look at the sleeping divine being. "She looks so cute wherever I look. I can hardly believe that she is a divine being."
"What about me?" Elena smiled mysteriously.
"I'm afraid the word beautiful isn't enough to describe you, the Goddess of Light. Ah! I know, it's an ethereal divine beauty. Uhm, it just came to my mind." Sylvia put her fingers together anxiously, afraid that anyone would be offended by her remark.
"Hm? Why did you all come here? Have the guests left?" Elysia wondered in surprise to see the others also coming into the room.
"Yup, they left just now." Yuuki nodded in response.
