Chapter 858 Get the Job Done in a Day

After a windy night followed by heavy rains, morning arrived with clear and cool weather.

Elysia woke up from sleep and did her fluffy morning routine for Vanessa, Yuuki, and Lynn. However, Xentia was curious and joined in on the fun. Elysia’s head pats are superb, after all.

“Heehee~” Vanessa chuckled while holding her cheeks. After two days of waiting, she finally rubbed her master’s scent all over her body.

“Hmm~” Yuuki looked up at the morning sky in a bright mood, clear weather.

“Fufu, that happiness can be so simple sometimes.” Lifa covered her mouth and sipped her morning tea.

“We have three days before the grand meeting. One day to rest, one day to collect data while doing a little survey at the technology expo. On the eighth, we do some preparations and, in the evening, attend the grand concert for Erina.” Elysia raised the topic of conversation regarding their schedule of events.

“Hmm, what should we do today? Take a break or go into action?” Nell asked in wonder. She didn’t have a problem with either one.

“If we act today, we can make it two days of leisure time. Preparation for that grand meeting doesn’t need to be complex. What do you all think? Get everything done in one day, and relax later. Or do alternate schedules? ” Lifa asked everyone’s opinion on the current issue.

“I think we should complete those two missions today. That way, I can spend more quality time with my master.” Vanessa immediately agreed with the first option.

“Mm, I think that’s a good idea. We’re also back in shape after a night of quality rest.” Yuuki also agreed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Getting things done at the beginning and relaxing at the end is the most sensible thing.” Lynn nodded in agreement.

“Xentia too!” Xentia raised her hand even though she didn’t choose anything. She just followed the decisions that were made.

“I’m fine with that.” Evelyn didn’t mind the decision.

“That’s fine. We can complete the mission in half a day, but where is the expo in question? We need to collect data regarding America’s issue against Xentia, right?” Sylvia put her hand to her chin. She didn’t mind getting into action today, either.

Rhea and Nell just gave the nod to Elysia, indicating their agreement. Meanwhile, Elena just hadn’t woken up from the Elysian Realm yet.

“So, the decision is clear. We will go collect data regarding why America wants Xentia even though we have destroyed data related to Xentia in the basement. We will reveal everything today to corner them at the grand meeting. However, regarding the technology expo, you mean Ely... What do you want to know about that place?” Lifa put her hand on the table and looked at Elysia.

“We need to learn about the technology of this world, especially in the field of communication. This may sound trivial for those who can communicate with others via telepathy regardless of distance, but not everyone can do it.

We need a global communications network and satellites to monitor outer space and celestial bodies like the moon. Vrelenia needs it, and we will give the project plan to Vrelenian to make it happen. The war is imminent, and we need a coordinated battle.” Elysia explained the reason behind her strong desire for communication technology.

“Alright, I can do the work for you, Ely. We can also get some free satellites when the time comes. Would you mind leaving this matter to me to sort out? That way, you won’t have to worry anymore.” Lifa nodded in understanding but expressed her suggestion with a mysterious smile.

Unfortunately, Lifa’s smile was interpreted differently in Elysia’s eyes. “Ah-Uhm, I would find it very helpful. You are much more experienced in this matter. However, why do I feel you are after something? Would you like something in return for your help?”

“Ara? Why do you think so, dear Ely?” Lifa was somewhat surprised by Elysia’s frank suspicion.

“Your smile is a little suspicious. Was it aimed at me since you were staring at me? It’s fine. Please tell me what I need to do for you.” Elysia tilted her head slightly. She seemed to have guessed something wrong.

“Fufu, you are too sensitive, Ely. It seems that my smile caused a misunderstanding in your eyes. It doesn’t have to be you, but those Americans will pay compensation for the mental stress they inflicted on us.” Lifa covered her mouth and explained the reason behind her smile just now.

She feigned her surprise and suddenly approached Xentia to give some head pats. “Oh no, Xentia was intimidated and scared. That’s not good. They need to pay handsomely for threatening our Xentia and challenging us. Hush, hush...”

“Hmm?” Xentia put on a confused, innocent face. She didn’t know why it was said that she was intimidated and frightened. Still, she accepted the head pats with pleasure nonetheless.

“Sorry, I misunderstood you.” Elysia apologized with a slight bow.

“Fufu, worry not, Ely. So, where is the technology expo you’re referring to? Do you want to go there, or stay in Japan and accompany our friend from Earth? Fortuna will also be here later, but she will meet you. You’d better stay in Japan, and we’ll sort things out as soon as possible.” Lifa dropped her fist onto her open palm. She thought it was the best arrangement.

“The location is also in America. Please wait a moment. I will show you the exact location.” Elysia accessed the map on her smartphone and showed everyone the search results.

“Then I’ll be here with Ely.” Rhea made a decision. She was in no mood to leave Elysia’s side.

“I also.” Ai got up from her seat and rushed back to Elysia’s shadow. However, someone suddenly grabbed her from behind.

“That’s not good, Ai. You will come with us so that everything can be done quickly. Your shadow transformation requires no magic and is very useful for infiltration.” Lifa smiled widely and didn’t let Ai escape.

“No, I want to go back to my shadow sanctuary! Let me go!” Ai refuses and tries to break free.

“It’s only half a day task. When we get back, you can ask Ely something like give Ely some head pats like a nice big sister... Or, you want some cuddles like our lovely fluffy friends?” Lifa whispered close to Ai’s ear.

“...” Ai was silent for a moment. She glanced at the lovely fluffy friends in question, then at Elysia.

Ai and Elysia exchanged glances for a few seconds. They didn’t say anything, but Ai could only sigh and take the offer. “Ely, you need to be careful because only one person will take care of you.”

“Thank you, Ai. However, you forgot to count my master.” Elysia smiled sweetly.

“Oh, yeah... I almost forgot. She often rests inside of you, and I used to think she was actually a part of you.” Ai scratched her head.

“Mm, that’s right. My master is a part of me. She is my family. Our family has grown quite big now.” Elysia looked at everyone with a tender expression.

“Ely...” Evelyn was touched for many reasons. She was happy to be considered family by Elysia.

“Eve, do you want to be with me to wait for Goddess Fortuna or go to America for information gathering?” Elysia wanted to know what Evelyn wanted to do without asking anyone.

“I’m pretty good at infiltration and data gathering. I’ll be useful at the expo too.” Evelyn pumped her fists. She wanted to feel useful and do something for Elysia.

“Thank you, everyone. I was supposed to go with you guys, but the situation required me to stay in Japan. Many people are watching over me, and Erina needs me here. When you come back this afternoon, I will cook your favorite food. So, make sure to come back before lunch~” Elysia put her hands together with a grateful smile.

“En, someone has to stay behind just for those annoying higher-ups. We’re leaving now, but you still need to be careful, Ely. Big sister, see you this afternoon!” Nell waved her hand.

“Please wait. Earth Mother left nature spirits here last night to help us and prevent us from using magic. They will be very helpful, and the mission will be completed even without using magic.” Rhea raised her palm. She immediately took a jar on the nightstand.

The six floating little balls answered the call and left the jar. Rhea explained the situation a bit and asked them for help.

“Oh, okay. We understand. Everything will be done perfectly and quickly, ma’am!” Sora saluted, and so did her comrades.

“Thank you.” Rhea extended her hand towards Nell and the others. The nature spirits flew to the girls and divided their tasks.

“Please don’t use magic. I will control the wind, and we will arrive in America quickly. Hmm, the wind will disguise our presence as well. So, be prepared for a super fast trip across the continent!” Wendy announced to everyone. She opened the window and took everyone to the sky with the power of the wind.

“Whoa!” Some of the girls yelped in surprise, but they soon got used to it.

“The wind can disguise their presence well?” Elysia stared up at the sky until everyone was out of sight.

“Only those with strength above rank eight can notice their presence even under cover of the wind disguise. Wendy’s wind power is impressive and far beyond the comprehension of Earth’s mortals.” Rhea looked left and right. She had Elysia all to herself since Elena was still asleep in the Elysian Realm.

*Bzzt*

Elysia’s smartphone vibrated. A message from Erina came in, and Elysia immediately replied to it.

‘Rhea, we need to go now to visit Erina. We’ll take a taxi there, so no one gets suspicious.’ Elysia offered her hand to Rhea.

‘En!’ Rhea took Elysia’s hand, and they left their hotel room. She was aware that some experts were still watching their every move, but since no one was acting foolishly, she just let them go.
