While traveling to the Pacific Ocean, Elysia noticed that the hospitals and health centers were crowded with many people. They are like waiting in line to wait for something.

Elysia asked the wind spirit to stop for a moment because she felt that too many people were sick today.

“Oh, them? You don’t have to worry, Elysia. They’re just humans waiting for their turn to get their second dose of vaccine. Not because of a sudden strange disease outbreak.” Sora explained a little about the situation around the medical centers down there.

“Oh, so because of that. I thought something else. Let’s continue our journey to the Pacific Ocean.” Elysia breathed a sigh of relief. She thought there was another plague, but luckily it wasn’t.

That said, Wendy brought everyone flying in the sky towards the east at high speed.

Sunny weather and calm sea. However, the atmosphere became rather tense within a massive Mothership floating above the Pacific Ocean.

The higher-ups and representatives of the countries registered in the Esper Association members were already in a grand conference room.

However, the association’s leader group had not yet come to the meeting room. The Guardian of Dream was also not present even though the meeting time was almost here.

Each group was separated by country. However, those who were present were not just the higher-ups. Each country also brought several talented young generations.

“As the party that invited all of us to this event, America was arrogant enough to keep us waiting.” One of the higher-ups from England pursed his lips with dissatisfaction.

“Haha, they probably want to come on time like one second before the appointed time. It’s still five minutes before noon.”

“Coming to the meeting room a few minutes before the appointed time is absolute etiquette.”

“Well, why not relax a bit? We’re all here to discuss recent events, and about the good of the world in the future.”

“I agree with that. It’s not about gain or loss, but about humanity and the future.”

The higher-ups from various countries opened their respective discussions. However, it still seemed like a casual conversation because the primary event had not yet started.

“Rather than that, the mysterious organization that is being talked about hasn’t arrived yet. Japanese representative, I heard that one of your princesses is close to one of the members of that mysterious organization. They really are coming, right? Otherwise, the effectiveness and purpose of this meeting will be halved.” One of the higher-ups from Germany asked with his usual deep tone.

“You don’t have to worry, Rolf Hoffner. They will certainly come. Let me give you some good advice. Just don’t try to offend or challenge them.” Mitsuzuka gave a kind suggestion.

“Haha, you mean like America? We’ll just be watching from the side. You might not know it yet, but their strongest warrior has already broken through the mortal barrier.” Rolf Hoffner laughed casually. His voice was heard by everyone in the conference room, and it surprised everyone who didn’t know about the information.

“You mean they have a Demi-God?” Mitsuzuka frowned. He didn’t know about that information.

“Yeah, like that British big raven bird.” Rolf Hoffner lit his cigar and smoked it while pointing at the British group.

“What? Just so you know, no one can control me. I’m just here out of curiosity.” Victorious raised her head to feel dragged into a conversation.

“It’s as you heard. Our British spirit bird is actually independent. She won’t take orders from anyone even if the Queen is the one giving the orders.” Marco, the British Admiral, shrugged his shoulders.

“You just haven’t found the right price for your request. Do you think an independent Demi-God spirit bird is cheap?” One of the Russian officials snorted sarcastically.

“You had the opportunity but ignored it. Victoria, why don’t you join and stay in our country? We will treat you very well, and of course, you will still have your freedom.” One of the higher-ups from India invited the holy spirit bird with open arms.

“That’s not my name, but whatever. Your country has been hot for more than half a year. Not to mention, that hell-like weather. I can’t live there.” Victorious rolled her eyes. She then noticed something unusual and immediately flew to the ceiling.

*Zap*

It was like an illusion. The empty spot reserved for the Guardian of Dream was suddenly occupied by a group of black-robed people.

Only five gorgeous girls wore formal dresses, but two of them disguised their faces with masquerade masks. One wore a black bat mask, and the other one a gold feather mask.

That mysterious group seemed to have appeared out of thin air. Other than the Demi-God raven, no one had noticed their presence yet, even though it was so obvious!

“Gulp.” Victorious gulped her saliva in nervousness as she noticed Elysia’s presence. Amongst the immeasurably strong individuals, she also saw the presence of several powerful spirits! So, they were the Guardian of Dream’s members, the powerful, mysterious organization behind Elysia.

“Hmm?” Erina suddenly felt Elysia’s presence so close to her, thanks to Elysia’s marker inside her. She turned to the side and found her friend already there, complete with the Guardian of Dream’s members!

Elysia, Xentia, and Sylvia were wearing formal dresses, but there were two graceful ladies wearing masquerade masks. She could guess one of them was Fortuna, the kind of powerful being who sided with her, but the other one was unknown. As for the other members, everyone wore mysterious black robes.

“Hi~” Elysia waved her hand with a friendly smile at Erina.

“Thanks for coming, Ellie.” Erina breathed a sigh of relief and raised her hand in greeting.

“!?” Everyone widened their eyes in surprise when they heard Erina’s greeting. They all immediately checked the spot for the Guardian of Dream. They found it was already filled with five gorgeous ladies and a group of black-robed individuals.

The Guardian of Dream’s arrival was not like a grand or fanciful entrance. Still, they simply appeared out of nowhere without anyone being able to detect them. It felt much scarier because it proved the power difference was enormous. No one could notice it until those powerful individuals let everyone realize it.

Above all, no one could assess those powerful individuals’ strengths. Only info about Xentia at rank eight they knew.

“We arrived two minutes before the appointed time. However, where are the leads in this event? They haven’t arrived yet?” Lifa sat in the front-row seat near Elysia. While everyone else sat in the back row seats.

“Yeah, they haven’t arrived yet. However, their aircrafts arrived at the Mothership some time ago.” Mitsuzuka felt a little nervous but enthusiastic. He was finally able to meet the people from the organization behind Elysia.

He couldn’t judge how strong they were. Still, he knew every individual of the Guardian of Dream was above human comprehension.

“All right.” Lifa leaned back.

“Please excuse me, are you the spokesperson for your group? If so, can you take off your black mask?” Higher-up from England raised his hand.

“You have neither right nor power to command me. Our representative is Elysia, and I will act on behalf of my comrades to handle the party that challenges us.” Lifa answered with strong words. She then kept quiet because her primary targets were those involved in the demonization experiment and those who were after Xentia.

Some people find it an arrogant challenge, but some colleagues tell the offended ones to behave well. Their country also didn’t wish to invite disaster upon themselves for a ridiculous reason.

“The holy night spirit bird from the British Empire hundreds of years ago, Victorious. Come here.” Fortuna called out to the raven bird flying near the ceiling.

“You have no right to order me.” Victorious was reluctant to comply with such a commanding request.

“I have the right. Come here.” Fortuna responded casually, but her divine owl’s aura made it clear that she didn’t want to be refuted.

“Oh, okay. I’m warning you, don’t do anything silly.” Victorious gasped in surprise. She was intimidated, but it seemed to only focus on her.

The raven then flew down and landed on the table. However, she chose to be near Elysia instead of that commanding golden-masked lady.

“Hello, long time no see, Victor. Uhm, is that Victoria now?” Elysia greets the big raven.

“Not from those names is my name. You and that girl gave me nicknames as you like.” Victorious shook her head.

“But you don’t mind, do you? How have you been in the last month?” Elysia smiled faintly.

“Well, it was a rather crazy month, I must say. A lot of insane groups attacking each other all over the world, then mysterious diseases, natural disasters, then chaos.” Victorious sighed.

“However, things have gotten better now, right?” Elysia continued with a meaningful question, but it was also addressed to everyone.

“Yeah, you’re right. Was it your group that caused the twist of event?” Victorious looked into Elysia’s beautiful purplish-blue eyes, then glanced at the individuals around Elysia. However, she didn’t dare to look too long because those black-robed people were intimidating.

“Not all of them. Many parties are helping to solve the problems.” Elysia shook her head slightly.

“I know your group hunted those troublemakers all over the world and captured the masterminds in just three days. Then your group’s envoys gave away the mysterious disease antidote formula to the Alchemy Association and the World Health Association for free. What is your organization trying to achieve?” Victorious asked out of curiosity, but she knew that represented a lot of people’s questions.

“Isn’t that obvious? We were expecting a beautiful, peaceful world.” Elysia represented to answer. Although, that was only half of the real reason.
