Chapter 536 - Did It Really Perish
"So, how are we going? Are we going to teleport with the dimensional portal like what you guys did before?" Luna put her hands together. She was excited to witness divine magic firsthand.
"That would make things easier for all of us, but we are currently conserving the use of our divine power for the unexpected." Oceanid provided a suitable excuse to conserve his divine energy.
'Ely, my magic carpet can't accommodate everyone right now. Should we go with this luxurious royal carriage? It would be more effective if we were in there and my magic carpet took everyone flying, right?' Nell suggested a suggestion.
'That is a good idea. Let's do that.' Elena responded for Elysia's sake.
'Eh? I'm sure I sent this telepathy specifically to Elysia, but why would you-' Nell was a little taken aback. Still, she immediately realized the fact that these two in one Goddess couldn't be counted separately.
'Do you want to hide something from me?' Elena turned the question upside down with an accusation.
'No, no... Let's do that, shall we?' Nell shook her head while waving her hands. She then flew to the carriage while whispering in her mind. 'I have to be even more careful when I speak, even if it's only in my mind or telepathically. Who knows what Elena could do...'
"Can you release the horses? We're going in this carriage." Nell asked Luna while pointing at the horses.
"Uhm, alright. Yusagi, please take these horses and put them back into their stables. After that, you can return to your duty." Luna ordered the bunny guard at once.
"Understood. Have a safe journey." Yusagi saluted and immediately did as she was told. She released the four horses from the carriage ropes before she climbed onto one of them and led them away with her.
After everyone got into the spacious carriage, Luna and Lynn looked at each other with puzzled looks. However, the same question arose in their minds. Luna then asked. "Now what?"
"Here, Ely. I'm giving this back to you." Nell entered through the window and handed a silk cloth to Elysia.
"Mm." Elysia just kept the cloth in her Space Bag. After all, they no longer needed that fabric anymore as additional space on Nell's magic carpet.
A few seconds later, the luxurious royal carriage suddenly disappeared from the sight of all the palace guards.
"O, wow, are we really going to fly in this carriage?" Lynn was amazed to see they had already flown off and headed toward one of the city gates.
At that moment, Luna realized an oddity had occurred. The residents down there weren't aware of the flying carriage at all. "Err... Are we in invisibility now?"
"That's right." Nell gave her confirmation. She then gave an eye signal to Oceanid.
*Bzzt*
The invisible carriage suddenly passed through the city gate through a dimensional portal that was opened for a moment.
"Eh? Eh? We just passed through the city gates? Isn't that a bit unfair?" Lynn widened her eyes while looking at the city gate behind. They actually went through it as if there was a hole.
"The difference between divine and mortal is enormous. Please don't apply your common sense to us." Oceanid folded his arms with a hint of pride.
"Fufu, that's true. We'll get used to it." Luna covered her mouth gracefully.
"Hmm, I understand it very well." Ella responded, and Evelyn nodded in agreement. They were already shocked for the umpteenth time by many things beyond human comprehension, but they just got used to it.
"May I know where we are going?" Luna put her hands on her lap.
"An island in the southeastern ocean. We want you to confirm something." Rhea answered straight to the point.
"And what is it?" Luna began to feel curious to know the problem down to the details.
"We just had a battle with a cataclysmic monster called the Ruvoid God's divine spirit. Even though the battle was won by us, we are afraid that it has escaped its doom. We want to make sure that that divine spirit doesn't roam somewhere in the world without us knowing it." Rhea emphasized her last sentence.
"A-a divine-class battle just happened? Will there be another battle of that class in the near future?" Luna widened her eyes slightly.
"Who knows? But, we won't involve you in a battle of that class." Rhea shrugged her shoulders slightly. After all, she couldn't see the future.
"I'm not sure about this, but can you try to see what awaits the world in the next one, two and three months?" Rhea put her hand to her chin and asked with a solemn expression.
"Three months?" Luna tilted her head slightly.
"We have a maximum of three months before those accursed creatures can free themselves from the shackles of sealed areas." Rhea clarified the information.
"I-I see... I'll give it a try." Luna nodded in understanding before she closed her eyes.
She put her finger on her forehead and tried to do her best to see the world's fate in the future. Unfortunately, there were a lot of faint and foggy images of the indefinite future.
But, if summarized into two possibilities. It was an apocalypse of destruction and a bitter victory.
After that, Luna opened her eyes with a helpless smile and an apologetic expression. "My apologies, I'm not sure what kind of future I can foresee with my abilities. I'm afraid to say what I can conclude based on the possibilities."
"Just say it." Rhea ordered in an authoritative tone.
"Destruction and bitter victory. It was not an easy battle. Too many casualties. The future is bleak no matter the outcome." Luna heaved a subtle sigh, and the atmosphere instantly became gloomy.
'It's still a tough battle even though Master Elysia and Master Elena are with us? Huff, the world is so wide and there are so many enemies, huh...' Rhea sighed in thought. She was not aware that her words were conveyed to Elysia via their spirit connection.
"I see, but it's not about doom and gloom. Even though it's only the possibilities of the future, we can't turn a blind eye to that. It seems, we need to prepare many divine trap formations as soon as possible, hmm..." Rhea looked to the side.
'We understand and will help as best we can, Rhea.' Elysia returned Rhea's gaze with a gentle smile.
'Mm, thank you very much.' Rhea was relieved to hear that reassurance.
After some discussion and conversation, they finally arrived on an island that was sealed under the sea. Oceanid glanced down then looked at the three fox beastkins who were conversing with each other.
"We have arrived. Here was the site of our battle with a Ruvoid God's divine spirit. Down there is an island sealed under the sea. Now, can you see the fate of the divine spirit in question after that battle?" Oceanid announced to everyone.
"Ah, let's postpone our conversation for a while." Luna patted Yuuki's arm gently.
She sympathized with this unfortunate snow fox girl after knowing a little about the story. Whatever the reason, it was a bad mother because that woman dared to abandon her young daughter alone on a remote snow mountain.
"I didn't tell you because I was hoping for your sympathy." Yuuki felt dissatisfied for some unknown reason. It was very different when she told so many things about herself to Elysia.
"Fufu, alright, alright~" Luna covered her mouth and got up from her seat. She then gazed at the sea below through the window.
"An island under the sea, a Ruvoid God's divine spirit, sealed area, curse, destruction, divine-class battle, and after-effects because of it. I will try to see about the fate of the divine spirit in question with these clues." After saying that, Luna clasped her hands in prayer and closed her eyes.
A crimson-red aura slowly appeared all over her body. Her abilities activated to see the future possibilities over a wide area.
Everyone tried not to create any noises that could disturb Luna's concentration. It was only a few seconds before Luna opened her eyes with a slight gasp.
"Huff, haa... Please forgive me, but I can't find any sign of any divine spirit in this place. I can only see that there will be a fierce battle going on here in about a week. But I don't know who will be involved." Luna took a breath and answered the result of her divination.
"Nothing? Can you try one more time if there is a suspicious figure or unnatural energy trying to break into the island under the sea down there?" Oceanid frowned and folded his arms.
"I'll give it another try." Luna nodded before she took a deep breath. She made the same preparations as before.
Unfortunately, she couldn't see any strange signs of any strange creatures trying to get into the island under the sea. She could only see the dome barrier down there, but no strange creatures, except for the nearby, unusual figure.
"Huff... I did my best." Luna sighed and went to sit down.
"What can you see with your abilities? It's not a divine secret, I hope you can see what we want to know." Oceanid immediately asked because he needed the answer as soon as possible.
"I can only see a figure of a man with the characteristics of a large grayish black body, pale white hair with a pair of black horns on his head, and bright red eyes. He has many gray-white stripes all over his body, and he came on a wooden raft with a sail?" Luna recalled what she saw with her abilities.
"I see, so there's nothing to do with that divine spirit, huh... Did it really perish? But, from the traits you mentioned just now... I think it refers to the Evil God.." Rhea put her hand to her chin.
