Chapter 460: Possible Causes

'Two or three possible causes? Can you share your views with us, Rhea?' Elysia became interested because that was what she wanted to know.

'Mm, well, the first possibility is because you and Master Elena used your magic to purify Amelie's body from any evil energy. Second, the recent memories are not stored in the body. So, along with the evil spirit that disappeared, Amelie also didn't have any memory recollections after her body was taken over. After all, that woman is not divine being. Third...' Rhea was silent for a moment after explaining two of her conjectures.

Nell and Elysia were only waiting for the third possibility.

'And lastly, it's probably because Amelie's memories are too terrible to remember. Something in her subconscious mind automatically erased all those terrible memories the moment her spirit synced to her purified body. Hmm, that's all. We can't be sure which one is correct.' Rhea nodded at the end of her words.

'I understand. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, Rhea.' Elysia gave a smile of appreciation.

'Glad to help.' Rhea returned Elysia's smile.

'Then what about you, Nell? What do you think?' Elysia nudged the silent little Goddess.

'Uhm, my big sister has explained that in detail. I believe more in the first possibility, then the third, then the second. 6:3:1 ratio of my confidence level.' Nell answered confidently.

'So, you believe that memory loss is caused by my magic? But, why is the second possibility only one in ten?' Elysia became a little confused.

'That's because we didn't interrogate that evil spirit. We don't know the truth. Elena was just about to annihilate that evil spirit, but the latter just blew himself up. Interrogation for information. Since Elena didn't want to do that, then there was no certainty.' Nell just shrugged her shoulders.

'But, we should ask this to my mother. She knows a lot about memory loss because she is the one who taught me about magic related to memory, soul, spirit, and form.' Rhea tried to suggest what she thought was the best solution.

'Mm, let's meet Madam Lifa after lunch.' Elysia readily agreed. The decision had already been made, and that was the end of their brief discussion.

"Ehm, Miss Elysia, where are you going after this?" Lucas convinced himself to ask after they exited hidden room X.

"It's almost noon now. We're going home for lunch and making preparations for tomorrow's journey." Elysia glanced at her friends. She knew they weren't done with their preparations yet.

"Then allow us to escort you all to your destination." Lucas nodded in understanding. He glanced at the two Goddesses in Elysia's arms slightly awkwardly. For so many questions, he wondered why these two divine beings were so close to Elysia.

"Okay." Elysia simply agreed to the offer. An imperial free ride was a good choice.

"Psst, Yuuki, do you know since when Ely became a Goddess Tamer? Look at that, she already has two, three if the Goddess of Light is counted." Sylvia whispered to the disguised fox girl.

"Shh, that's so rude. Even though you whisper softly to me, do you think divine beings can't hear it. Don't you know that Elysia is also one? Uh, what I mean, I don't know. Please don't ask me." Yuuki lowered her head guiltily.

She might get into trouble if she leaked Elysia's identity. She had already made a promise to Elysia after all.

"Hmm..." Sylvia just mumbled and didn't bring up the matter anymore.

After they all exited the Imperial Palace, Elysia opened the conversation with a smile before boarding the carriage. "Nee, Ella, do you want to return to the Holy Cathedral first for our journey tomorrow? How about you, Eve? Would you like to meet your mother at the Knights Association first? Then, how about you, Sylvi?"

"Mm, grandfather said that my father will be back this afternoon. I'll get ready soon and will return to Lavely Pizza for dinner. You can't go without me, alright?" Ella emphasized her last words as if she didn't want to be left behind.

"Yes, I need to see my mother for some things and supplies. She asked me to see her this afternoon. I'd better go there now so I can come back sooner." Evelyn nodded.

"As for me, I don't need to go anywhere else. All the preparations for the intercontinental journey are already inside here~" Sylvia patted her black Space Bag. She hid it again behind her waist belt. It was an exceptional item. No one should ever steal it, just like the previous event.

"Hm, then, we'll split up here. We'll be waiting for you at Lavely Pizza, even if you come tomorrow morning." Elysia waved her hand.

Ella and Evelyn waved back. They went to the carriage at the very front. Meanwhile, Elysia's group climbed into the carriage behind it.

The two carriages went to their respective destinations.

"Hm, time flies so fast, huh... We're going to have lunch first, right?" Nell looked at the sun to estimate the current time.

"Erm, this may sound a bit harsh, but does a divine being need food and drink to live? As far as I know, divine beings are immortals who won't starve to death even if they don't consume anything." Sylvia raised her hand with a doubtful yet curious expression.

"Eits. That's a half-true misinformation. Even divine beings can starve to death, not from a lack of nutrition, but from a lack of magic energy. However, well... Even though, we only eat and drink just to pamper our tongues. You know, it would be really boring if you could live a very, very long time without enjoying what you love." Nell wiggled her finger to correct the slightly incorrect information.

"I see, thanks for letting me know. Hum, you're right, it would be very boring if we lived so long without enjoying our every moment. Not to mention, divine beings are immortals. That must be quite a consideration on your side." Sylvia nodded in understanding as if she ultimately agreed with that claim.

"Yeah, it's a burden to be immortal. You will see all your friends, comrades, family, even your loved ones leave you one by one." Nell sighed and leaned against her big sister's lap.

"..." Elysia trembled for a moment because Nell's statement reminded her of harsh reality.

If she and Elena were mortals with divine power, couldn't they also be said to be immortals? If so, one day, everyone she knew would leave her because the mortal couldn't live too long for an apparent reason.

"Bad Little Helen." Rhea flicked her little sister's forehead but without strength.

"Oow!" Nell held her forehead nevertheless, even though it didn't hurt.

'Ely, the truth is not as bitter as you think. If your friends are willing and destined to accompany your eternal journey, they can live a very long time as the divine's servant, or in Little Nell's presupposition, angel. Ella is Little Nell's future angel. So, the rest can be calculated for consideration. Except for Gio because he is a special being that attains immortality though not divine, but as long as he is on land.' Rhea immediately explained as if she knew what made Elysia tremble just now.

'Mm, thanks for letting me know, Rhea. It means a lot to put my mind at ease.' Elysia breathed a sigh of relief.

The scary thing about an introduction was a farewell. Even though the separation was said as a new beginning, it was different if death was considered.

'You already have two divine beings as friends, then me, your lovely and caring big sister, but also your guardian angel. Just so you know, Ely. Our little Goddess, Nell, used to have hundreds of angels. But they all died in the tragedy a hundred thousand years ago. You know what you need to do if you want 'them' to accompany us on our very, very long journey.' Elena reminded that Elysia forgot.

'Mm, I know what I need to do when the time comes.' Elysia closed her eyes and leaned back. She had some plans in mind.

Elena smiled, knowing Elysia's line of thought.

Yuuki and Sylvia exchanged glances as if they didn't understand why Elysia and the Goddesses had suddenly become silent.

The carriage journey to Lavely Pizza was relatively peaceful and smooth. When they arrived, they immediately had lunch together on the top floor.

"We need to do something for a moment. In the meantime, please wait for us here for an hour or two." Nell wiped her mouth with a tissue and announced to everyone.

"What do you mean by us... Is that you, the Goddess of Nature, and Elysia?" Yuuki tilted her head slightly.

"Yup. let's go, Ely." Nell floated up and went to Elysia's room.

"We excused ourselves." Elysia got up from her seat and followed Nell while carrying Rhea.

*Bam*

The door closed tightly, and no sound could be heard anymore. Also, no one could peek into the room.

Sylvia scratched her head, then devoured another slice of pizza. She looked at everyone at the dining table. It was time to ask for the enlightenment of her confusion. "I'm not asking this because I want to be rude to anyone, okay? But, is Helen the real name of the Goddess of Blessings? I remember the Goddess of Nature referring to her as Helen in the carriage earlier."

"No, I don't think that's the Goddess of Blessings real name. I can't explain it, but that's what I believe." Yuuki's ears twitched slightly. She took another sip of her warm green tea after enlightening the confused girl.
