Lifa couldn’t do a spirit bonding ceremony at the moment because Elysia needed to return to Nature Realm to meet her real body.
Everyone then exited the Firmament Realm because it had been some time since Nell checked the latest information updates.
“Everyone, this is bad.” Nell returned to the room in a bit of a panic.
“What is it?” Elena folded her arms. She knew a bad omen was brewing.
“I received an emergency message from Alexander six minutes ago. The Heretic God is currently fighting the corrupted Ely in Cuttexus Kingdom’s south border, around the Avrora Forest. A large number of accursed creatures also rose from their sealed ground there. Alexander requested reinforcements because the defensive force in Rarora City might not last long.” Nell informed everyone about the precarious situation that was going on.
“The Ruvoid God’s avatar, huh. They have eight of them, and one appeared the day after we killed one. However, the corrupted Ely? Does this one have a copy of Ely’s powers or is it just copying her appearance?” Elena pursed her lips in displeasure.
“No further information, but it seems that this one just copied Elysia’s appearance. My big sister already destroyed the previous avatar entire being without a trace. It’s easy for a divine being to imitate someone’s appearance using an artificial avatar.” Nell expressed her opinion.
“I hope it’s true. If it’s the same as the previous one, Heretic God stands no chance to keep up with that avatar, let alone win.” Elena had faith in Rhea. So, this Ruvoid God’s avatar was just imitating Elysia’s appearance.
Elysia took a deep breath and let it out slowly. They would be faced with another high-class battle only one day apart. “Then, let’s go there now and defeat that avatar as soon as possible. Some of us haven’t recovered yet, so you won’t be involved in the battle this time.”
“Yes, please wait for us in the Nature Realm. Also, Ely, we need to switch forms now for disguises and traps in case something unexpected happens. We are not there to defeat that avatar, but to eliminate it without leaving anything behind.” Elena raised her finger as she looked at everyone, emphasizing the last sentence.
“…” Several girls wanted to come along to help, but they realized that they had not recovered from the previous battle. Sylvia, Xentia and Ella would definitely not be allowed to tag along.
“That’s fine. We will deal with the accursed creatures and you can eliminate that hateful avatar. That Ruvoid God wants to dishonor Elysia on the world by wreaking havoc with her appearance.” Ai spread her arms. She thought everything would be fine if they didn’t come face-to-face with the Ruvoid God’s avatar. That one was what the Goddesses would finish.
“Yes, let’s test our new spirit bond on the battlefield using a coordinated battle structure. We can eliminate the accursed efficiently.” Luna put her hands together and immediately sent telepathy to the girls who would participate in the extermination of the accursed in Avrora Forest.
“It can be done, but please be vigilant and careful. We will protect you.” Elysia was feeling a bit worried, but she believed her friends could handle the accursed.
“Mm, leave it to us. As long as there isn’t an Emperor-level accursed creature, then they are no match for us. Even if there is one, we can work together to eliminate it.” Vanessa puffed out her chest with pride.
“We will leave the accursed and the battle in Rarora City to you.” Elena nodded in understanding and pulled Elysia’s hand to keep a little distance from everyone. She immediately returned to the Elysian Realm to switch roles with Elysia.
A few seconds later, Elena took over Elysia’s body, and Elysia came out as a spirit in Elena’s appearance.
“Let’s go.” Elysia revoked the room’s layered barrier and immediately teleported everyone to the Cuttexus Kingdom’s Capital City.
They then flew toward the battlefield in Avrora Forest and divided the group into two. Fortuna led the group to exterminate the accursed, and Lifa brought the divine group to the southern border to assist Xero against the Ruvoid God’s avatar.
They divided the group in the middle of the vast Avrora Forest. One continued southward, and another westward.
Nee, I heard that AVrora Forest used to be an ancient holy battlefield where the Holy Church fought it out against countless accursed creatures. Underneath this fertile ground, tens of thousands of holy knights and priests were buried. Sylvia brought up a topic of conversation as they crossed Avrora Forest via the air.
“Yes, it existed in ancient history. Avrora Forest is one of the largest and most fertile forests in the world, but this forest also holds a million mysteries. They have become holy spirits to protect this forest.” Ella agreed with Sylvia.
“Here is the place where you killed me and Ely, right, Sylvi? This is also the place where the Goddess of Light first became known to the world.” Ai smiled slightly.
“Pwease forgib mwe! I was only defending myself. I am innocent!” Sylvia wore a pitiful expression like a little animal.
“Hmm, I have no recollection of that tragedy. I don’t blame you. It’s just that this forest is a unique place.” Ai took a deep breath.
“Would you like to meet your family, Ai? They were devastated after losing their precious family members. Student Council President Rosie Reinhard, your big sister, was so devastated to lose her dear lil sis. She cried for several days.” Evelyn asked with a sad expression.
“I don’t care. They already considered me dead, so they should have moved on. I am Ai, Elysia’s twin sister.” Ai glanced at Evelyn for a moment and shrugged her shoulders. She had no sentiments toward the people that Evelyn mentioned.
“However, don’t you want to meet them? At least once? Seeing them from afar is good too.” Evelyn smiled gently.
“…” Ai was silent for a moment. She remembered Elysia had said something similar to Evelyn, but she thought it wouldn’t have any meaning if she met them or saw them from afar.
Her life as Alisha was nothing more than a forgotten story. However, she would probably see them and visit her cemetery.
“I’ll talk to Ely after this.” Ai ended the conversation without saying yes or no, as she knew Evelyn was a bit pushy sometimes.
A few moments later, they arrived at a forest area contaminated with lots of dark and curse energy. The battle in the anti-curse zones was being fought in the distance between knights and warriors fighting the accursed monsters.
Upon closer inspection, the strongest monsters were only at Saint level. So, it was a battle that Fortuna’s group was able to win without much difficulty.
“Hehe, it’s show time~ We will kill them all.” Sylvia rubbed her hands and grinned like a villain. She would make those monsters suffer as she wanted to regain her confidence. For more chapters, please visit pan(da-n0vel.c)om
“Evelyn, Ella, Xentia are still recovering. Shall we go back row to help the injured?” Xentia asked curiously.
“Yes, we will help the injured. They are more than enough to clean up the accursed in a few minutes.” Evelyn nodded and then led her little team of three apart from the group.
“Hahaha! Perish!” Sylvia dealt the opening blow with an explosion and a shower of poison needles. She then summoned her advanced weapon and shot the monsters in the head like a professional shooter.
“Cherub!” Ai called out her pet, and CHerub turned into a huge four-winged dragon. They entered into battle and exterminated the accursed like weak insects.
“Gio, we can’t lose either. Come with me, we’ll move quickly on land.” Vanessa takes Gio for a collab attack.
“Hmm!” Gio immediately followed his senior sister. Earthquakes and violent shaking soon followed.
“Uhm, we should just attack from a distance.” Fortuna proposes a suggestion to the fox girls.
“It sounds good.” Yuuki took out her ice arrow.
“Our only options are attacks with physical damage or utilizing elemental reactions. Mother, please lend me that water gun. It will serve Yuuki’s ice arrows very well.” Lynn reached out her hand, asking her mother for something.
“E-eh? That water gun? I made that for us to play in the rare summer water five years ago. It’s not a weapon to kill.” Luna was a bit surprised, but she still took the requested item for her daughter.
“Yup, we’ll just use that to freeze those monsters so they don’t get any closer to the city. Yuuki.” Lynn raised her water gun and started shooting a deluge of water powered by water type Energy Core.
“Elemental reaction? I don’t have many techniques with physical damage, but I’m confident with my magic. Let’s put this to good use now.” Fortuna took out a vial filled with black clouds. She released the black cloud into the air and blew it into the battlefield.
*Splurt* *Crackle* *Rumble!*
Water, ice, and lightning powered by indirect magic rained down on the battlefield, forcing many parties to retreat because they didn’t want to get involved in friendly fire.
“Hey!” Sylvia was also forced to retreat because the thunderstorm was getting more and more violent.
“Roar!” The accursed creatures groaned in pain. They absorbed the magic energy, but the elemental reaction injured their bodies.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t enough to reduce them to ashes.
However, Gio suddenly used large-scale earth magic. He didn’t care if his magic was inefficient because his goal was something else.
*Boom!*
The ground soared high into the sky and fell to bury thousands of monsters several meters underground. Tens of hectares of forest disappeared, replaced by wasteland.
“Hmm!” Gio raised his leg high and stomped his foot hard on the ground.
*Boom!*
A powerful earthquake rocked Avrora Forest, making the surrounding ground hardened like solid rock.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
Gio stamped his foot several times on the ground, crushing the accursed creatures into a pulp underground. The brown ground soon turned jet black, and a cloud of cursed omens seeped out, shooting towards Gio.
“Anti curse field, active!” Vanessa activates two anti-curse mechanisms to protect Gio from the curse.
The giant anti-curse dome domain activated, absorbing the curse energy into the metal staff.
There were only a few accursed creatures left. They happened to escape their demise. However, those monsters were still shocked by the sudden change in events.
The knights and warriors in the defensive formation also opened their mouths wide as they were so surprised by the battle prowess of the reinforcements that had come to their aid.
“Heehee~ Good job, Gio. You are the MVP in this battle. Even the Goddess Fortuna is not your match in the field of mass extermination.” Vanessa chuckled and was about to pat Gio on the shoulder, but he was twice as tall as her. So, she patted his arm instead.
“Hmm.” Gio nodded and folded his arms proudly.
Ai and Sylvia then hunted down the remaining accursed creatures as they didn’t want to leave any of them alive.
