Chapter 482: Go Under the Sea

Nell just rolled her eyes to face this devil girl. She had many reasons to refuse, but someone got ahead of her to answer.

"Having pa.s.sion and enthusiasm is good. Let"s go to the Aquatic Ocean to have a look. At the same time, I can pick up some of my avatars faster." Oceanid gave the nod as if he also agreed.

"Then it"s decided!" Sylvia pranced a little in happiness.

"Hey, why did you guys decide that on a whim?" Nell felt a little dissatisfied. It would seem a bit impolite if they went on an excursion when Elysia and Elena weren"t feeling well.

"Hohoho, everything will be fine. It won"t take more than half a day. By the time evening comes, maybe all my avatars will already be with me." Oceanid tried to persuade his old friend because everyone would be happy if everyone agreed.

"..." Nell considered a few things and fell silent.

"My saviors will return when we"re done. We"re not leaving to challenge any danger." Oceanid added to the persuasion.

"Un, un!" Sylvia repeatedly nodded to give her full support.

"Well, fine. We"re just going to go see the Aquatic Ocean until the sun goes down." Nell heaved a subtle sigh and asked her magic carpet to fly east.

She erected a transparent spherical barrier to protect everyone before her magic carpet plunged into the ocean.

"Yay! Ocean, underwater." Sylvia cheered with joy with both hands up.

"All of you are now under my protection. Don"t you dare venture off my magic carpet for any reason, understood?" Nell immediately gave a stern warning.

The others gave a polite, understanding response, but Sylvia answered playfully. "Yes~"

"If you come out, I will close my eyes if you are chased by a terrible and dangerous monster. Who knows if you can become an additional protein for them." Nell softly snorted because she didn"t like the devil girl"s att.i.tude.

"Eh? I don"t want to be food for the fish. I"ll just sit here like a nice girl and watch the underwater scenery." Sylvia was a little taken aback, but she only took it as a light jest because she also had no intention of causing trouble to herself.

Then, she simply changed the conversation while pointing to a large group of fish not far from them. "Nee, Sea G.o.d, can you tell us about this place? What kind of fish are they? They look like they"re dancing. Actually, how deep is the ocean?"

"Hoho, you"re asking the right person. This ocean isn"t really that deep, about four hundred meters to two thousand meters. It"s far different from the Aquatic Continent, which is more than four kilometers deep. As for the fish over there--" Oceanid started to tell a little about his knowledge.

The girls listened to the Sea G.o.d with enthusiasm. But, the little beasts seemed much more interested in watching the movements of the fish swimming around them than anything else.

Especially the cats. They seemed to have been hypnotized by the sparkle of the fish in their eyes.

Seeing everyone enjoying their moment, Nell looked to the side and smirked. She had a mischievous idea that suddenly crossed her mind.

The magic carpet seemed to move because of the current to head toward the big fish hordes.

"Eh? Wait, why do those big fishes seem to be approaching us? We"re still in invisibility, right?" Sylvia was astonished to see the hordes of big fish seem to be getting bigger and bigger.

"Everything is fine." Nell just waved her hand in front of her face. She pretended not to know anything and just acted like there was nothing to worry about.

"But..." Sylvia felt unsure and doubtful. She looked at the other girls, including the little fox, but they also felt clueless and a little worried?

"Eh? That gigantic whale is looking at us. No, it is swimming toward us! We will be swallowed alive! We need to get away from here quickly." Evelyn shouted frantically while pointing at the giant fish swimming straight at them.

"They"re not dangerous because I"m here." Oceanid simply replied casually, in stark contrast to the panicked girls.

"We will be eaten. We will be swallowed alive!"

"Ah!"

"Waaa!"

The girls couldn"t believe the Sea G.o.d"s words or anything else. They just screamed when the giant fish was so close, and its mouth was opened wide.

Oceanid just shook his head and extended his hand to the invisible barrier, and made a light sweeping motion in the water.

At the same time, a strong current appeared instantly to push the giant fish several tens of meters to the side.

The giant fish was astonished at what had just happened. Even so, it just continued swimming as if nothing had happened.

"..." Silence immediately enveloped everyone on the magic carpet. However, some of them looked at the little G.o.ddess with varied expressions.

"That"s a bad prank, old friend." Oceanid shook his head with a sigh.

"Me? I didn"t do anything, though? We"re in an underwater zone that"s actually more dangerous than land. They need to understand that. Plus, I won"t let any harm befall anyone." Nell defended herself eloquently and confidently.

"Ehm..." Evelyn and the girls looked at each other with helpless expressions. They couldn"t blame anyone if it was stated like that.

Meanwhile, Vanessa felt it was like deja vu with truly similar occurrences, but the scared girl was her master.

"Hehe, it"s a little surprising to hear you scream like a chicken after you mocked me, red-eyed girl. A coward who accuses others of being a chicken." Yuuki made fun of Sylvia in retaliation for what happened earlier.

"Huh? It"s not just me feeling panicky, little fox. Ella and Evelyn too. But, it"s still so much better than a fox girl screaming and crying with lots of tears and snot." Sylvia frowned slightly in annoyance.

"Oops, I"m sorry. I didn"t mean to include you in my banter. Ella and Evelyn are apprentice girls coming for the experience. You shouldn"t involve them because they need protection, Sylvia." Yuuki covered her mouth while staring at Ella and Evelyn.

"Mm, it"s okay." Evelyn nodded. She just didn"t take the two girls" bickering as a serious matter.

"I"m not offended, and I"m not ashamed to admit that I panicked and screamed involuntarily." Ella put her hand on her upper chest. She treated everything as if she hadn"t screamed at all just now.

"Such a confidence." Sylvia commented with an approving nod.

After that, Nell didn"t pull any more events and continued their underwater journey to the Aquatic Ocean. Although, it just became like a study tour with Sea G.o.d as a tour guide.

Time pa.s.sed in the Firmament Realm with calm and peace. Rhea only used her time to pay attention to her sleeping masters while letting her train of thought go here and there.

"They are so close that they hold hands in their sleep. It must be nice to have someone who always accompanies the ups and downs at every moment and opportunity." Rhea muttered in mind with a relieved heart. After all, Elysia and Elena"s condition was improving steadily.

"Huff, if the accursed monsters problem in Vrelenia is over, does the world still need divine beings like us? Is it okay for me to go with Master Elysia and Master Elena to their world in the future? I know and am sure that they will not stay in Vrelenia forever." Rhea asked in wonder, but her smile didn"t diminish one bit.

She began to plan many predictions for the future, including what might happen. Truth be told, she was also curious about other worlds besides Vrelenia. An adventure between worlds was very beautiful and amazing when age was just a mere number. It was absolutely worth waiting for.

"A-aah... I"m a.s.suming too much. My hunch can tell that I just have to ask, and it will be granted. Hum-mm~ My mother will come too, and Little Nell might as well if she"s willing. So, that"s a planet called Earth, huh... What kind of world do you think that can groom the double high-leveled G.o.ddesses, hmm?" Rhea could only ask her inner self. She patted her cheek and looked back at Elysia and Elena.

At that moment, Elena"s eyelashes fluttered slightly before the pair of golden eyes opened.

"Good morning. I am happy to see you in good health and refreshed, Master Elena." Rhea gave a greeting with a relieved smile.

"Mhm, good morning Rhea. I told you that, didn"t I?" Elena rubbed her eyes gently, but her hand was being grabbed by someone.

She peeked under the blanket, and sure enough, Elysia was holding her hand in sleep.

"Oh my..." Elena got a pleasant surprise. She just looked at Elysia"s lovely face with a sweet smile.

"Ely, I think it"s time for you to wake up. It"s quite rare that I wake up before you. But, now it"s my turn to tease you~" Elena whispered rhythmically near Elysia"s ear.

"Uhm-mm..." Elysia only slightly tilted her head to the side, but she didn"t give any sign of waking up soon.

"Uhm... Is that okay, Master Elena? Why don"t we let Master Elysia sleep a little longer?" Rhea felt quite surprised, but she swallowed it to ask with concern.

"It"s okay, it"s okay. We"re fresh and fit. I know Ely will wake up soon. What I"m going to do is just a little revenge for what Ely used to do to wake me up. It"s quite a rare moment, I can"t miss it. " Elena waved her hand in rea.s.surance.

After that, she became mischievous and started to tease the sleeping Elysia.
