Chapter 447: Their Carefree Time
Chapter 447: Their Carefree Time
"Ely, what are you doing?" Sylvia asked curiously.
"I was just checking some documents, Sylvi." Elysia glanced at Sylvia once, then focused back on the documents on her desk.
"Are you often that busy taking care of the paperwork?" Sylvia glanced at the document, but she didn\'t really understand the report it contained.
"Not really. I just need to take care of this before we let the Lavely Pizza in this holy city fully under Ayla\'s care." Elysia shook her head.
"I see..." Sylvia nodded and turned around to go somewhere.
Meanwhile, Elysia stared at Sylvia\'s back with mixed feelings and embarrassment. She never thought in her wildest mind that Sylvia would happily wear those revealing dresses without any shame. And again, that Devil Princess was satisfied with it!
Luckily, Elena still let herself get away with it. Yuuki, Ella, and Evelyn were also released as they shyly refused. The three girls just watched and covered their faces with their hands but kept peeking through their fingers.
Elysia blushed to remember what had just happened a few dozen minutes ago, all about Sylvia. Unfortunately, Elena as the perpetrator, immediately fled to the Soul Realm after all of that was over.
\'Hum, hum-hm~ Remember, Ely, I will make you wear a super duper sexy revealing dress one day. But, don\'t worry because I will also wear a sexy dress with you in our private time~ Oh! Or, let\'s call it a bikini dress, fufu...\' Elena whispered with a hum from within the Soul Realm.
"..." Elysia couldn\'t answer anything. Her cheeks were flushed red right away, and she lowered her head to hide her blush.
Elena just giggled to watch Elysia\'s alluring blushed expression.
*Tap* *Tap*
A knock on the table sounded from the side. Elysia turned her face to look at the source of the sound. Sylvia tapped the table to get her attention? Then, she looked up to meet Sylvia\'s red eyes. "What\'s wrong, Sylvia?"
"You worked hard, Ely. Here\'s a glass of refreshment for you~" Sylvia put a glass of pink fruit juice on the table, then she took a stool and sat beside Elysia.
"Ah, um, thank you, Sylvi." Elysia somehow felt her throat dry. She took the glass of strawberry juice and drank it using a straw. After that, she put the strawberry juice on the table and went back to working on the paperwork.
"Hmm? Where are Ella and Eve? Are they still in the room with the Goddess of Nature?" Elysia felt that she was being stared at by Sylvia in silence. She opened the conversation so Sylvia would not continue to stare at her intensely.
"Yup. They and Yuuki are still in that room with the Goddess of Nature. It seems those three naive, yet innocent girls are getting instruction, direction, enlightenment, or teaching from the Goddess of Nature. I just got some advice, and then I was asked to play outside. I get a pretty decent score." Sylvia shrugged her shoulders.
Meanwhile, Elysia just rolled her eyes to hear Sylvia speak as if only those three girls belonged to the naive girl category.
Then, Sylvia glanced once more at the papers in Elysia\'s hands. Her friend was writing something, then scribbling something.
She never understood about paperwork like that. It looked very dull. Nevertheless, she was aware that her father could spend hours in front of all those papers.
The Devil Princess was bored because there wasn\'t much she could do at the moment. She just rested her cheek against her hand while watching her friend at work. Unlike her father, who often chased her away even though she just wanted to see, her friend didn\'t mind her presence at all.
*Slurp* *Slurp*
Sylvia took a sip of the nearby fruit juice unconsciously.
Elysia\'s attention was drawn there. She was a little surprised to see that her drink was only an empty glass. Sylvia gave the drink to her, but that girl was also the one who drank it out? Besides, this Devil princess used the same straw as her!?
"Huh? What\'s wrong, Ely? I was just watching the expression on your face, though? Are you bothered by me?" Sylvia bit the straw and played with it.
"Ehm, no. It\'s just that, you are, ah never mind." Elysia blushed and returned her focus to her paperwork. She couldn\'t say anything because she was too embarrassed, to tell the truth.
"Uh? Ah! I unknowingly drank your fruit juice, Ely. Wait a minute, I\'ll get you some more." Sylvia immediately rushed to the kitchen because she realized what she had just done. She returned with another full glass of juice, but this time it was red.
"This is for you, Ely." Sylvia put the fruit juice on the table. She sweetly smiled as if she was completely innocent.
Elysia glanced at the juice. The straw was already crumpled. Obviously, it was because of Sylvia\'s bite. This Devil Princess didn\'t replace the straw with a new one!?
\'On purpose... It must be on purpose! Is it so much fun to tease me with naughty games, just like a particular mischievous girl?\' Elysia complained in her mind.
\'Hehe, do you have me in mind, Ely? What do you expect from it? Sylvia is a devil, maybe a succubus or a vampire? She could not help but invite others to commit a crime. You are her target, and your relationship is good. Would you like to pounce on her and eat the bait, Ely?\' Elena couldn\'t help but giggle.
\'Sylvia is a succubus vampire?\' Elysia marveled in her mind. She couldn\'t even see Sylvia\'s species from the status screen.
"Nee, please don\'t keep staring at me intensely, or I\'ll blush." Sylvia waved her hand in front of her face.
"Uh, but it\'s you who keeps staring at me intensely..." Elysia muttered under her breath and shook her head helplessly.
"You said something, Ely?" Sylvia tilted her head slightly.
"No, it\'s nothing." Elysia is back at work.
A few moments later, Ella, Evelyn, and Yuuki came out of the room with a gaze full of reverence. Their minds and souls were enlightened. The truth of the world turned out to be that deep. Only a tiny glimmer was revealed by the mortals!
"Ely..." Rhea flew up and landed on Elysia\'s lap.
"Hmm? Are you sleepy?" Elysia stopped all her work to give Rhea her full attention.
"No, I\'m not sleepy. But, I want to be here." Rhea leaned against Elysia and lazed there after getting into a comfortable position.
At that moment, Elysia just nodded and looked out the window. To her surprise, the day was no longer bright. The sun was slowly setting from the sky, leaving only the trails of its orange glow on the horizon. "Eh? Is it twilight already? Erm, a golden hour? Time flies fast indeed."
"That\'s because you are too engrossed at work, Ely. I\'m sure you very often lose track of time when you\'re already in work mode." Sylvia pointed out the truth. She smiled with satisfaction at the conclusion she came up with.
"Hum-mm, that\'s very true. Sometimes, I need to drag Ely to bed because she\'ll keep staying up late otherwise." Evelyn nodded in agreement.
"Hehe, you\'re so considerate of Ely, Eve. But it\'s not bad to go pensive while looking at Ely\'s serious face. You know, I\'ve been here for a while and bothered Ely, but she doesn\'t mind at all. If it was my father, he would definitely kick me out and ask me to play somewhere else." Sylvia smiled at the approaching Evelyn. This girl wasn\'t bad either, but not as good as Elysia.
"Hehe... Anyway, Ely, do you want to go to the academy tomorrow with Eve and me? We need to ask the principal for a few days off directly. Your previous leave of absence was actually only a week, right?" Ella sat on the sofa with Yuuki. She reminded Elysia in case the latter forgot it.
Elysia thought for a moment, then she nodded in understanding. "Tomorrow, um, sure, I\'m coming. I\'m going to the academy to ask for an extension of leave."
"May I come along? I only saw Deterry Academy of Magic from the outside at that time. But, I also want to see the academy from the inside." Sylvia raised her hand to ask.
"Hmm..." For some reason, Gio also raised his hand to see that. He thought he needed to do that, so he was included in the count.
"Even Gio? But, well, anyone is welcome, as long as you behave like a good citizen." Elysia blinked a few times in slight surprise. She previously thought that Gio understood the topic of the conversation without Vanessa translating anything. But, that didn\'t seem to be the case.
"Then, me too!" Yuuki didn\'t want to be left behind and raised her hand high.
"Okay, but you and Gio are special cases where you need disguise magic to hide your beast body parts." Elysia gave an ok hand gesture.
"But, but, I\'m not good at illusion magic..." Yuuki\'s fox ears went limp.
"That\'s fine because you will get help from me." Elysia replied with a tender smile.
"En, thank you, Go-Ahm, Ely!" Yuuki breathed a sigh of relief. She almost slipped up to refer to Elysia as the Goddess Ely.
"Nee, nee, we\'re going to stay here tonight, right? But, we only have two rooms, three if the guest rooms are counted. So, how do we divide our sleep?" Sylvia raised her hand and waved it to get everyone\'s attention.
"Ely, Ella, me, and Vann will be sharing a room in that room. Sylvi, Yuuki, Madam Lucia, and my mother will be in that room. Then, um... Yes, Gio and the rest will be in the guest room. It\'s an easy setup, isn\'t it?" Evelyn tried to come up with an arrangement she thought was perfect.
Hearing that, Sylvia smirked and replied. "Do you think it\'s a good choice?"
