As the event ended with a closing ceremony, Elysia met Erina backstage. However, she didn’t reveal herself to anyone because of disguise magic. A little fairy sat on her shoulder, one that did the disguise magic.

‘Thank you, Erina. Your performances are truly captivating, and you are truly enchanting.’ Elysia stood behind Erina and spoke via telepathy.

‘Ellie? I feel honored.’ Erina looked left and right, and then she looked back. Elysia was there, looking at her. The little fairy too.

‘I am currently out of sight. Only you can see me. It’s time for us to go. You should also go straight home with your father and grandfather. We’ll meet again tomorrow morning at that high-level grand meeting.’ Elysia conveyed her message with a smile.

‘En, I understand.’ Erin nodded in understanding.

‘See you tomorrow. Please make sure only trusted people accompany your entourage.’ Elysia waved her hand with a playful expression.

‘Ellie, I’ve learned my lesson. The traitors have been purged. Everything will be fine.’ Erina waved her hand in reply.

‘Then I can rest easy.’ Elysia breathed a sigh of relief, then said another farewell before leaving.

“Erina-sama?” Mio asked from near the dressing room entrance. She asked in wonder why Erina waved at her, or maybe not?

“That was Ellie, Mio. She said goodbye to me because she had to go with her friends. We also have to get ready to go home soon.” Erina immediately tidied her belongings and put them in her Space Bag. She then hid it in her cleavage.

“Ah, okay. Mitsuzuka-sama and Kenji-sama are waiting for you.” Mio nodded. Then, she glanced around once more.

She couldn’t detect Elysia’s presence just now. If there was a bad person with exceptional abilities like Elysia… she had to have a way to protect Erina if that happened.

Erina and Mio met Mitsuzuka and Kenji, who was already waiting outside the room. They then left with the escort of many elite soldiers.

Several reporters and fans immediately swarmed Erina’s group at the exit, but the soldiers blocked the people from approaching.

“Erina-sama! Erina-sama!” Someone managed to break through, but he fell to his knees right in front of Erina’s group.

“…” Kenji spread his arms to the side. He didn’t know what this man wanted, but his daughter’s safety was a priority.

“Are, are you really going to stop music? You’re going to stop singing and playing music? You’re going to stop sharing goodness and content!? I’m your most loyal fan in the world. I really can’t!” The die-hard fan exclaimed with a sad expression.

“Thank you for your appreciation and concern, sir. However, I’m just announcing that I’m stepping down from the music industry. That doesn’t mean I’ll stop singing and playing music. I’ll probably keep releasing some in my spare time on my social media channels.” Erina grasped her hand and replied with a faint smile.

“Eh? So, you just quit temporarily? Is it true that you will return to the music industry in the future?” The die-hard fan was instantly enlightened.

“…” Erina only replied with a silent smile because she didn’t want to make promises. She had to ascend to the top rank as soon as possible, which was her current priority.

“I’m sorry, sir. You should back off.” A soldier dragged that die-hard fan away.

“Thanks for the confirmation, Erina-sama!” The die-hard fan raised his hand high as he was dragged away.

Erina just waved her hand, then put her hand on her grandfather’s arm. “Let’s go.”

“Hmm.” Mitsuzuka responded with a hum, and his entourage left the vicinity.

The weather since that evening was quite friendly, and so was the following day. The morning came on a very sunny day. Fresh air, cool breezes, and warm sunlight shining on the earth’s land. Birds chirped sweetly as if to tell that a new day had arrived.

“How many top representatives did Japan send to the meeting in the Pacific Ocean?” Rhea asked the nearby nature spirit.

“They left at six. There were three large helicopters escorted by six fighter jets.” Sora reported the situation she had observed this morning.

“Six o’clock, that was two hours ago. The meeting was held at nine, noon time at the destination. So, how was it?” Rhea glanced at Lifa.

“It’s okay. We have an hour to have breakfast and get ready. Do we need to wear Ai’s shadow robes, or just wear a formal outfit but with a masquerade mask?” Lifa waved her hand in front of her face. She knew the girls didn’t want to get there too soon.

“Everyone besides Ely, Sylvi, and Xentia will be wearing shadow robes. Wait, you are the one who will take care everything in a ‘peaceful’ manner, right? Then you should just wear a formal outfit with a mask.” Elena proposed the arrangement.

“That sounds good.” Rhea nodded in agreement. She then conveyed her request to the girl behind her. “In that case, you mustn’t leave Ely’s side, Xentia. They might provoke us, but if it offends you, please just gracefully retaliate against them.”

“Mkay~ Xentia will protect Ely!” Xentia saluted.

“Just don’t summon your anti-matter cannon to blast their heads if they upset you, Xentia.” Sylvia covered her mouth.

“Xentia understand. They are bad, and bad humans need to be punished.” Xentia nodded in understanding.

“Am I included in the shadow squad?” Fortuna pointed to her face.

“No. You may go as a divine owl or in your current form. If Darkness is here, she will accompany you. You will appear as our neutral third party ally. Unfortunately, there has been no news from her since that day.” Elena heaved a subtle sigh.

“Hmm, so using that plan, huh. No one knows what that sucubuss did in her Darkness Realm. She broke her promise to come the day after me.” Fortune also sighed.

The delicious aroma then came into everyone’s nostrils. They immediately ended their brief discussion and went to the dining room before Elysia summoned them.

Elysia, Evelyn, Lynn, Vanessa, and Yuuki finished cooking breakfast for everyone. They all then ate a warm breakfast together.

“Leave some breakfast for Tic?” Elysia asked the gluttonous fairy.

“Well, he probably hasn’t eaten anything yet. All right, let’s pack this one up for him.” Nell separated a large bowl of hot breakfast and wrapped it tightly.

“…” Rhea didn’t comment on Elysia’s consideration of Xero. That Evil God was still on their side, after all.

At that moment, a small bat flew into the hotel room through an open window. However, the bat was more alert this time and didn’t hit the invisible barrier, thanks to past experiences.

The small bat knocked it, and Elysia let the small bat enter.

“Hmm~ The smell of delicious food. Seems like I always arrive at the right time. As expected of me, heehee~” Darkness landed near the dining table. She was about to take a dish, but Elysia stopped her.

“Welcome. You need to wash your hands before eating, Darkness. I’ll prepare one for you.” Elysia reminded the little bat about hygiene etiquette before eating.

“Okay!” Darkness agreed. She materialized her human form, and the black evening dress immediately wrapped her seductive body. Then she went to the sink in the kitchen to wash her hands.

By the time Darkness returned to the dining room, a chair and breakfast had already been prepared for her. She took her seat and received several stares, most notably a somewhat intimidating one from Fortuna.

“Hello, thank you, Ely. You really care about me. Have a nice meal.” Darkness ignored Fortuna’s gaze and devoured her breakfast. It was so delicious, as expected of Elysia.

“Darkness, you are two days late from your appointed time. What took you so long?” Fortuna took a deep breath and sighed.

“If you count today as one, then it is indeed two days. However, it’s actually only one day, dear Fortuna.” Darkness rolled her eyes.

“So, did something happen on your side?” Lifa asked straight to the point.

“You have no idea what I was getting into when I tried to return to my realm. It disappeared from its original dimension. Yes, it completely disappeared! I looked for it everywhere frantically and anxiously, but I didn’t find it until a few hours ago. It moved locations very far from its original position. No one knows why, but I’m relieved to see that everything is fine there. Only the temperature is getting hotter for some reason.” Darkness put her hands on the table while complaining. However, she ended up heaving a sigh of relief.

“It’s changing places and getting hotter? Is it possible to get closer to the Hell Realm? Why is that happening?” Fortune asked in wonder.

“How would I know? That’s why I was late. I almost cried when I thought my realm was reduced to atom.” Darkness returned to eating her breakfast.

“Perhaps, that realm was affected after we repaired Earth’s world law and barrier? It’s just like a change of coordinates. You can move your realm’s dimension if you want. It will be much easier if you move your realm into a core and bring your realm everywhere you go.” Lifa shrugged her shoulders. She didn’t count that as a problem.

“How do you do that? Wait, you are a high-level Goddess, and you must have a private realm, right? Did you bring your realm everywhere?” Darkness widened her eyes. She thought it was the perfect solution if she could make it happen.

“Isn’t that obvious? The concept is similar to how you store your belongings in your little space dimension. You can summon several things out of nowhere, yes? It’s like that.” Lifa folded her arms and nodded.

“That little space dimension is just an artifact or amgic item! It’s completely different from a realm within the core. After all, what kind of core is capable of storing a small world within? Does such a material exist in your world?” Darkness pouted. She did not understand why such a complex matter was considered trivial by the other party.

“You’ll know if you visit our world, but not anytime soon. It’s still too dangerous there.” Lifa put her hand to her cheek and smiled mysteriously.

“Yeah, we probably won’t help anything and become a burden for you. Once your world is cleared of those cursed creatures, I’d be happy to visit there. Please let me know if you need material assistance or the like. We and the Divine Association will be ready to help.” Fortuna made her offer of help.

“Fufu, we will prepare a list after the grand meeting then.” Lifa covered her mouth. She wouldn’t hesitate to ask then.

After everyone finished their breakfast, they immediately prepared to go to the Pacific Ocean. The nature spirits would escort Elysia’s team to this event at the behest of Earth Mother.
