Chapter 351: The New Host

"Mmmh... Mmmhmmh..." The sound of a muffled moan filled the silence.

A girl with long azure hair was lying on the bed and covered her mouth with her hand. She closed her eyes with a blushing face and tried hard not to make any noise, but it was a hard thing to do.

On the other hand, a girl with long black hair was working as a doctor. She took care of the girl who was lying limp on the bed. Her dainty fingers were carefully peeling off the Aurora Crystal around the patient's sensitive private area.

"Finally done. Congratulations, you are now free from any curse energy, Rhea." Elysia took off her gloves and took a large blanket to cover Rhea's body. Then, she glanced sideways and blushed too.

'No, Ely, it's all for Rhea's good. You play the doctor's job to heal a patient, remember? Yes, a doctor.' Elysia reassured herself in mind. She could hardly believe she had done such an indecent act.

'Hehe... Ely, how do you feel after taking care of the stunning maiden's Goddess-class body?' Elena smiled mischievously to tease the girl, who became embarrassed when all was done.

'I am a doctor who recently cured a patient with you, Sister Elena. I don't have any weird thoughts.' Elysia put the topic of discussion aside to counter the tease.

'Well, you've literally explored every corner of this girl's body. You need to be prepared if she will hold you responsible, Ely, hehe...' Elena chuckled with amusement. What they did in the last three days and two nights was pleasant enough to remember.

'Nha...' Elysia was at a loss for words.

She and Elena needed this rank three Goddess's strength and help, but it came at a heavy price. They did that after considering the pros and cons, but what kind of responsibilities other than being Rhea's new host?

'I asked permission, and Rhea did not refuse. She wouldn't hold a grudge against me, would she?' Elysia became worried because of Elena's remark.

'Who knows. Oh, look... This girl looks at you as if she wants to say something.' Elena grinned and shrugged her shoulders.

Rhea clutched her blanket and propelled her body into a sitting position. Her cheeks were still flushed, remembering what happened a few moments ago.

It was different from the last two days, where Elysia only eliminated the curse and repaired her damaged body. This morning, Elysia did the finishing touches to her body and peeled off all the crystals from her skin.

Half of her body was literally touched entirely by Elysia, without exception. Even though she did not object to it, she still felt embarrassed nonetheless. Moreover, she moaned indecently despite her best efforts to drown out her voice.

"Thank you for healing me so that I can return to a complete existence without any curses, Elysia." Rhea gave a grateful bow with a sincere expression.

"Mm, you're welcome." Elysia looked at Rhea and nodded once.

Rhea raised her head to peek at Elysia's expression. Then, she muttered softly. "Umm, Elysia, Elena..."

"Yes? How do you feel now, Rhea? Do you feel anything uncomfortable?" Elysia mistook that something was wrong, so she checked Rhea's body and Rhea's status screen right away.

[| Lv. 231 | Goddess of Nature | Rhea | Female (N/A) | HP: 178,900 / 209,800 | EP: 330,536 / 362,600 |]

[| STR: 69 | AGI: 55 | VIT: 54 | INT: 86 |]

[| Lv. 231 | LE: 509,436 (89%) |]

Well, that was good status when compared to Rhea's condition yesterday or two days ago. Also, Elysia and Elena couldn't find anything wrong with Rhea's body.

"Are you really willing to be my new host and master?" Rhea muttered in a soft tone, but it sounded almost like a plea.

Hearing that, Elysia just smiled as she stared at Rhea's pitiful yet firm gaze. She didn't know anything about Rhea, but she fully understood that Rhea treated the ritual relationship highly. So, losing a certain amount of Life Energy to receive protection from the real Goddess wasn't a wrong choice.

Elysia came over and sat beside Rhea. "How about you, Rhea? I can't say much since we haven't met that long. Still, I know that it's not as simple as you establishing a bond with someone as your host and absorbing the Life Energy out of your host."

After saying that, Elysia gave a gentle smile because Rhea was silent. And then, she went straight to the point. "Madam Lifa begged me to become your new host for some reason you may already know. However, what will you promise me if I become your fourth host?"

"My strength and loyalty. I will protect you and serve you to the best of my abilities. I will be your Patron Goddess who will listen to any and all of your orders. Everything is within your rules and regulations. Even I won't be able to absorb your Life Energy without your permission. Everything I say is the truth in the name of my divinity and divine soul." Rhea put her hand on her upper chest and declared with comprehensive determination.

"I see... Then, I will be in your care, Rhea. Tell me, what do I need to do for your bonding ritual?" Elysia nodded in agreement, and so did Elena.

On the side, Lifa, Nell, and Vanessa were just watching in silence. Lifa requested to let Rhea and Elysia settle the matter without interruption.

"I will perform a ritual and an oath incantation. Please respond with 'I will' at the end of my ritual magic." Rhea came closer to Elysia and accidentally dropped the blanket. She revealed her gorgeous body, clad only in her underwear.

Elysia only nodded in response, then Rhea started preparing for the bonding ritual. Rhea's magic energy surged, and several greenish magic circles with complicated runes emerged around Elysia and Rhea.

"I, the Goddess of Nature, Rhea, at this moment declare my pledge of allegiance as a faithful servant of the Almighty Goddess, Elysia. Along with this--" Rhea uttered a long oath incantation. Her words were written simultaneously in a magic circle that floated between her and Elysia.

Meanwhile, Elysia was just waiting for Rhea to finish. Literally, Rhea's oath was more like a contractual agreement where she had to give Rhea Life Energy to get Rhea's services in return. In retrospect, she wouldn't have suffered much apart from losing Life Energy.

"--At the name of my divinity and my divine soul, our spirits are bound. Elysia is my host and master for my last gifted life. As host and master, are you willing to care for your faithful servant with sincerity?" Rhea ended her long words, and the contract was ready.

"I will." Elysia responded without hesitation. But, somehow, she felt like she just got married.

The magic contract became perfect and shone with green light. Rhea touched it, and all the magic circles were sucked into the magic contract before her.

At the time, Elysia was feeling weird because of her ridiculous thoughts. She failed to notice that Rhea's face was approaching hers.

*Chu*

"Eh?" Elysia was shocked, and Elena was nothing less.

Elysia's forehead was kissed by Rhea all of a sudden. At the same time, the magic contract became the particles of light and scattered toward Rhea and Elysia.

"Eh?" Rhea blinked with surprise. She found a yellow spirit connection in Elysia's upper dantian.

It was somewhat familiar, and she was sure of it. At that moment, she thought of Nell. It was Nell's divine mark!

'Why does Elysia have Little Nell's divine mark as a master? Or could it be... Uh, no.' Rhea didn't dare to guess more than that. However, her ritual contract couldn't wait for long.

Therefore, she pulled her face away from Elysia's and put her index finger on Elysia's forehead. She moved her finger down Elysia's face, neck and stopped in the middle of Elysia's upper chest. Unfortunately, her contract couldn't be implemented there either for some unknown reasons!

Elysia's upper dantian and middle dantian couldn't receive any more spiritual bonds. Thus Rhea moved her finger again down to Elysia's abdomen. Fortunately, her contract took effect immediately, and her divine mark could be placed there.

Little did Rhea know, she could only perform the ritual because Elena also gave permission.

"Please take care of me from now on, Master Elysia." Rhea took a little distance with a warm smile, but she saw only Elysia's blushing face.

"Wha- Wha, what did you just do? Do you need to kiss me for the bonding ritual?" Elysia moved back and stood up. She didn't expect to be kissed and traced from forehead to abdomen.

"Yes, it is necessary. Please forgive me if it offends you. But, please take care of me from now on, Master Elysia." Rhea gave a bow of respect and blushed because of her host.

"Ah, oh... Okay, I'll be in your care too, Rhea." Elysia sat back on the bed and touched her abdomen with mixed feelings. That was her lower dantian, right?

At the same time, Rhea also touched her abdomen. It was relatively warm as her spirit connection was also there. It seemed Elysia was checking her divine mark.

'It's okay, Ely. That azure spirit connection is somewhat similar to that of the yellow one in your upper dantian. So, you have two subordinate Goddesses. One half-disciple and one loyal maid, hehe...' Elena chuckled happily to say that.

'My upper dantian and lower dantian are filled with two divine spirit connections. Then, what about my middle dantian? Rhea seemed confused earlier.' Elysia glanced at Rhea while adjusting her blushing face to return to her natural expression.

'Who knows. Maybe it's because of my existence or Vanessa's spirit connection.' Elena pointed to Vanessa's bluish-white mark in Elysia's middle dantian. It was an imposing spirit connection to the extreme. If Elysia died, then Vanessa would die too, very different from the two other spirit connections.
