Chapter 672: Stay Neutral For Now

\'Rhea, my apologies. We can only take precautions like earlier. Are you dissatisfied?\' Elysia gave Rhea a head pat with a gentle tone.

For some reason, she felt she was in a dilemma if she took Rhea\'s feelings into consideration. After all, Rhea was the one who received a heavy loss due to the resistance against the accursed creatures, the Ruvoid Race.

\'You don\'t need to apologize, Master Elysia. I fully understand your confusion in the face of Alashor\'s sudden change and his association with the Council. For the time being, we\'ll just observe everything until an action needs to be taken. Let\'s take care of this next month when we get back here again. We need to help Nell and the others as soon as possible.\' Rhea shook her head and looked at Elysia\'s face with an understanding smile.

\'Mm, we shall return to Vrelenia soon then. We need to meet Erina-san first to put a stronger marker for us to come back here. It would be great if I could telepathically send her. That way, she can be our informant on Earth.\' Elysia put her hands together as she came up with a brilliant idea.

\'That\'s a great idea, Ely. That way, Erina can help us monitor changes that occur in Earth\'s human realm regarding any great event, including the God Game.\' Elena ultimately agreed with that.

\'However, that would require something as strong as a spirit connection or contract, Master Elysia. Meanwhile, a divine being, including a special entity like you, only has slots for three divine vassals. You now have me, Little Nell, and Vann.\' Rhea blinked her eyes with an innocent look. She had no proper solution if Elysia wanted to establish a connection that could cross dimensions and realms with Erina.

\'But, our Vann is not a divine vassal. Might we be able to add Erina along with Vann\'s spirit mark? Or, perhaps, we can put a one-way contract with Erina as the receiver. It was like establishing a half-perfect spirit connection. Is that even possible, hmm?\' Elena thought for a moment about the matter.

\'It\'s possible! Yep, both can be done. However, if you decide to place Erina\'s spirit mark in your middle dantian, you need to ask Vann\'s permission first. I highly recommend putting a one-way spirit connection to Erina. Although there are drawbacks, it is risk-free. We still need to consider that she is still a weak mortal girl.\' Rhea made a suggestion, and she hoped it would be approved.

\'That sounds good. Let\'s do it. We want to hear the pros and cons of that one-way spirit of connection. Elysia agreed without hesitation, and Elena didn\'t express any objections.

\'With pleasure!\' Rhea then explained the one-way spirit connection.

A while later, Xero suddenly asked. "Where are we going now? Straight back to Vrelenia?"

"Yep, we\'re going back to our world today. However, after I placed a spirit mark on Earth for our way back. Hmm, we also need to put a marker in this seventh heaven. Sylvi, please land on one of the remote islands over there." Elysia pointed to a small island floating away from the other islands.

"Affirmative, captain!" Sylvia saluted and controlled the Gravy Ark to go in the designated direction.

"Excuse me, may I know why we are heading to that small island?" Dave asked confusedly. He thought they were going to the Divine Association\'s headquarters, but it seemed like something had gone wrong.

"I just wanted to put a marker. No harm is done." Elysia waved her hand in front of her face.

"You all will still come to visit the Divine Association\'s headquarters, right?" Dave added.

Elysia looked at Elena and received a nod of her head. "Well, we\'ll be there to see the God-King\'s point of view, if possible. We\'ll be on the neutral side for the time being."

"All right then." Dave nodded in understanding.

After Elysia placed a marker in a hidden spot, they continued their journey toward the Divine Association\'s headquarters.

It was a white-gold floating giant fortress with a shimmer of holiness. That place emitted an impression of enlightenment and a light of hope.

Several gods and angels could be seen in various corners of the fortress. They were busy minding their own business.

The arrival of Elysia\'s group did not attract anyone\'s attention because they were still in invisibility. Elysia asked to head straight to meet the God-King, and Dave agreed.

When they landed on a balcony at the highest point of the fortress, Dave flew in front and guided everyone to go see the God-King. "Please follow me."

"Hehe, I\'m wondering what the form of the King of Gods is like." Sylvia muttered under her breath.

"Hum, I reckon he\'s an old man who talks a lot like the Council\'s higher-ups." Xero flapped his wings and followed.

Elysia\'s group was led to a conference room, but it also looked like a throne hall. A man in a white-gold robe with a gold leaf crown on his head sat on the throne. It was as if he had known of their arrival.

"Welcome to my association\'s headquarters, dear guest from another world." God-King spread his arms in welcome.

Dave the Dove flew to an angel behind the God-King. He went poof and just disappeared.

"It is an honor to meet you, the Heavenly Emperor, God-King?" Elysia felt a bit strange. After all, it reminded her of Vrelenia\'s aristocratic rules.

"Hahaha, you don\'t need to be staggering about pronouns. God-King is just my title I\'ve had for a long time, but you\'re right that I should now be Heavenly Emperor. Please sit down, and I\'d like to talk to you all about a few things." The God-King pointed his palm at the chairs around the conference table.

Elena heaved a subtle sigh as this would probably take a little while. However, she would only go with the flow and follow Elysia\'s plan to find out the point of view of the God-King and Divine Association.

It was just a conversation for thirty minutes, and Elysia decided to end the conversation because she had already got what she wanted to know. It was justifiable for the Divine Association to oppose the Council because of the God Game, but that didn\'t mean Elysia and her group would interfere now.

"It\'s a pleasure to speak with you, God-King. However, we will remain on the neutral side for now. Next month, we\'ll be back to see what the Council might do and what impact the God Game will have on the world." Elysia ended the conversation politely.

"Well, we\'re fighting against the Council\'s clumsy changes and their behind-the-scenes schemes. We can\'t say for sure yet, but there\'s a scheme that we suspect will happen soon. It doesn\'t matter if you will be on the neutral side for now. While their involvement and implication with the mortal, I mean the human realm, is something that can be ruled out. Earth Mother reigns supreme there. Even gods and angels must submit to her world law." God-King grasped his hand and nodded in understanding.

He was confident that this foreign powerful divine group would side with his association sooner or later.

"Alright, with that being said, we need to excuse ourselves." Elysia got up from her seat, and so did everyone in her group.

"Good. Dave, escort them." The God-King nodded and pointed his palm towards the exit.

"Yes, My King." Dave bowed slightly and immediately led Elysia\'s group away.

The God-King remained sitting on his throne. He rested his cheek against his hand, and his lips curved into a mysterious faint smile.

*Bam*

The door suddenly opened again, and a goddess in a golden-yellow robe entered in a hurry. "My King, I apologize for my impoliteness. However, have the distinguished guests from another world arrived yet?"

"Oh, they just left." God-King smiled in amusement.

"No way... I went back to headquarters as fast as possible to meet them, and they\'re gone?" The newly arrived Goddess loosened her shoulders in disappointment.

"You are the Goddess of Fate, but your estimate was off by half an hour. It seems you are too busy with your business, to the point of exhaustion. Please rest for some time as it will affect your performance. Besides, they probably haven\'t left the fortress yet. You could see them right now because Dave is escorting them out." The God-King sighed and looked towards the north.

"Understood, My King. Then I need to excuse myself first." After saying that, the blonde Goddess flew out of the room and closed the door.

"Hm, she was so excited to meet them. What did Earth Mother tell her, or what did she see with her divinity? I wonder." The God-King muttered to himself.

Meanwhile, Elysia\'s group had just boarded their Gravy Ark to dart away. Elysia waved her hand at the real Dave. "Thanks for your guide bag, Dave. See you next time."

"Hum, that\'s an honor for me." Dave bowed slightly.

Elysia glanced at the hidden marker that she placed at the highest point of the fortress. Then, she raised her hand to remind her group that it was time to leave. "Everyone, be prepared. This is dimensional teleportation~"

"Ooo!" Sylvia raised her hand with enthusiasm.

Rhea hid in Elysia\'s divine bracelet, and Elena entered Elysia\'s Soul Realm. While Xero looked left and right in shock.

Yet, Elysia immediately used her teleportation to return to Earth\'s human realm with Erina as her marker.

*poof*

Elysia\'s group instantly disappeared from Dave\'s presence as if they had never been there. At that moment, a Goddess suddenly came from behind and startled him.

"Have the distinguished guests from other worlds left yet?"

"Yeah, they just left a second ago." Dave looked aside and nodded.

"No wayy... Am I late again?" The Fate Goddess slumped to the floor.

"You don\'t have to worry. They\'ll be back here soon." Dave shook his head and turned around.

"Adrienne has met them, but I haven\'t. Isn\'t that a bit unfair? But, it will take around next month, uh..." The Fate Goddess muttered under her breath.

Under the clear blue sky, Elysia returned to Earth\'s human realm in the blink of an eye. The Earth God\'s seal immediately sealed Sylvia, Vanessa, and Xero\'s magic. Still, the seal was slightly delayed for Elysia as she had to make sure they landed safely.

\'Phew, we seem to be on top of a luxurious building. Where are we now?\' Elysia looked left and right after placing her Gravy Ark into her Space Bag.

At the same time, her invisible magic was forced to deactivate when her magic was sealed.

*Splash*

The splashing of water was heard from the side. Erina and Mio relaxed in the rooftop pool, only clad in a swimsuit.
