Chapter 388: Arrived at Tiger Paw Forest Again
Shortly after Elysia and Nell left the Nature Realm, Elena immediately tried to send telepathy to Elysia through their private channel for testing. \'Test, test, one, two, three. Ely, can you hear me?\'
\'Sounds clear, Sister Elena. Hum-hum, so, we can still talk even though we\'re in different realms, huh.\' Elysia confirmed while putting her necklace back around her neck.
\'Hehe, this is interesting. My guess is right. We are inseparable indeed, Ely.\' Elena chuckled happily to know the result. Then, she looked down, and the baby on her lap also turned to her. "Rhea, can you send telepathy to Ely. I wonder if it will be delivered or not."
"Ah-um, okay." Rhea complied without the need to ask anything. \'Master Elysia, has my voice been conveyed to you?\'
\'Oh, Rhea. I can hear you.\' Elysia answered and sat on Nell\'s magic carpet. It was ready to fly, but Nell was just waiting for her.
\'Wow, this was conveyed even though my avatar wasn\'t outside. Is it because of our spiritual connection, err, my divine mark?\' Rhea was a little amazed.
\'That may be true.\' Elysia thought the same thing.
\'Ah, never mind, I was only asked by Master Elena to test this. Then, allow me to confirm Master Elena.\' Rhea closed the conversation and waited for Elysia\'s response. After that, she nodded at Elena. "My telepathy can be conveyed to Master Elysia. It\'s probably because of my divine mark."
"Mm, that\'s good." Elena smiled because she could also hear Rhea\'s words earlier. She then glanced at the Tree of Life. "Old granny, can you try to send a telepathy to Ely for a test?"
"Oh, sure." Lifa immediately sent telepathy to Elysia shortly after. Unfortunately, she didn\'t get any response because it wasn\'t delivered at all.
"I don\'t have any links or other intermediaries that can connect me to Elysia. My telepathy cannot pass through beyond the Nature Realm if the portal to the outside world is not opened." Lifa declared the result of the test.
"Well then..." Elysia only responded briefly to that. Then, she asked Elysia to open the portal for her.
When the dimension portal appeared right before her, Elena carried Rhea and handed the baby over to Elysia. "The Tree of Life and I would like to have a friendly chat for a moment. Please continue our journey toward the Beast Continent."
"Huh?" Rhea got a little confused about what Elena wanted to talk to her mother about in private. Nevertheless, since she was not allowed to remain there to listen, she could only obey.
Elysia just carried Rhea and waved back at Elena. After that, she closed the portal and sat on Nell\'s magic carpet. "Now is the time for us to leave, Nell. Our destination is Glaidan Region\'s capital city, Beast Continent!"
"Let\'s go!" Nell patted her magic carpet, and it immediately shot into the sky toward the southwest.
At that moment, Elysia remembered something and decided to visit a specific place out of consideration for Vanessa. "Eh, wait, looks like we need to pay a visit to Tiger Paw Forest for a bit. I know the place. It\'s around quite a remote area in the eastern part of the Beast Continent."
"Eh, that\'s fine. But, what are we going to do there?" Nell floated and landed on Elysia\'s shoulder.
"Vann\'s brother is buried there. We will try to summon his departed spirit from the realm of the dead. This one has a higher chance of success because his Energy Core is in my Space Bag." Elysia put her hand into her Space Bag and took out a dark blue crystal ball from her Space Storage.
"Oh, that makes sense. Okay, my magic carpet, we\'re going to Tiger Paw Forest at full speed!" Nell pointed to the southwest as she gave her command.
The magic carpet didn\'t even know where Tiger Paw Forest was. Nevertheless, it increased its speed to shoot in the designated direction.
The white cat glanced up with a look of excitement yet filled with complicated feelings. Vanessa then glanced at her master with a grateful gaze. She hoped that she had a chance to speak and also hit her brother at least three times.
"Now it\'s just the two of us. So, what do you want to talk to me about?" Lifa looked at the place where the portal had been and then spoke.
"Yes, it\'s just the two of us now. Please don\'t be nervous or tense. I\'m harmless because I love peace. Ahem, I\'m still wondering where your voice came from?" Elena got down from her seat and examined the Tree of Life closely. "You don\'t have a mouth, but you can talk. You don\'t have eyes, but you can see. It\'s as if you are like a treant? Wait, does that type of tree creature exist in Vrelenia?"
"They exist, but there aren\'t many of them. If you\'re lucky, you might be able to find the treant in the Beast Continent or Beastkin Continent." Lifa thought a little and decided to give a yes. To be honest, she also couldn\'t tell if the treant still existed or went extinct.
"Oh, so it\'s like that." Elena was convinced after observing the role of each part of the Tree of Life\'s body.
After that, she sat back in her seat and looked at Lifa with a faint smile. "Let\'s start our warm conversation, shall we? First of all--"
For the next few moments, Elena asked Lifa many questions, and the latter had no other choice but to satisfy the former.
Apart from just talking, Elena even urged Lifa to share some knowledge of divine magic and Divine Law for the world\'s good.
Ninety minutes just passed. Nell\'s magic carpet finally arrived at Tiger Paw Forest after getting lost several times because Elysia and Vanessa had trouble finding the exact location. After all, they came from the Elven Continent, not the Human Continent.
"Let\'s land there. I can\'t find anyone in this forest other than beasts at Intermediate-level or below." Elysia looked around briefly with her advanced perception and her sacred vision.
"En, I can\'t find anyone either. It\'s safe here, Little Nell." Rhea waved her hand high.
"Good, let\'s land now." Nell patted her magic carpet, and they landed on a small hill in the middle of the forest that looked like a cat\'s paw when viewed from above.
Just as they landed on the ground, Vanessa transformed into her white tiger form. She went to check some essential spots to make sure her uncle and aunt were still around or not.
Unfortunately, as the Goddess of Blessings said. Maybe, her uncle and aunt were already in Brisline Woodland.
"What\'s the situation, Vann?" Elysia asked the approaching white tiger. Yet, she only got a tiger\'s head shake in response.
"It\'s okay, we will meet your uncle and aunt in Brisline Woodland later. They\'re fine, I\'m sure of it." Elysia stroked Vanessa\'s head and gave a warm hug.
"En, Uncle Theo and Aunt Leila were just forcibly picked up by a group of fiery lions. They must be fine. Thank you, master." Vanessa rubbed her head against her master for comfort.
"Mm." Elysia stroked the underside of Vanessa\'s chin a few more times before she ended the fluffy session.
At that moment, Elena\'s voice sounded in Elysia\'s mind. \'Ely, could you stop for a moment and open the portal for me now? I\'m done interrogating- Ahem, I mean, having a friendly chat with the Goddess of Life.\'
Elysia didn\'t need to answer. She carried Rhea from the magic carpet and opened the portal for Elena to exit the Nature Realm.
"I\'m back." Elena smiled in satisfaction as she stepped out.
"Welcome back. You look pleased, master." Elysia smiled too, just because Elena smiled.
Meanwhile, Rhea looked at Elysia then at Elena with an amused gaze. Her little sister said that Elysia and Elena only played master-disciple relationships. Elysia didn\'t deny it either when she asked that.
"Mm, yeah... I had a great conversation in the last ninety minutes with Lifa. Time flies so fast, and unfortunately, we need to postpone our heated session for tonight, hehe..." Elena covered her mouth and looked back. She seemed to be able to see Lifa was sweating a little because of her words.
"Oh, you have also used a different pronoun to refer to my mother, Master Elena. Have you become closer to my mother? I thought you were dissatisfied or disliked my mother because of something. You often call my mother old granny..." Rhea fiddled with her fingers as she muttered.
"Oh, you noticed that? Yes, Lifa and I have become a little closer, or rather, she has earned my respect." Elena stroked Rhea\'s head.
Nell\'s eyes immediately lit up at that. She still remembered what Elysia said at that time. Could it be that she hasn\'t earned Elena\'s respect all this time? To be sure, she immediately flew over and drew closer to Elysia. "Then, what about me?"
"What do you mean by that, little one?" Elena failed to understand what Nell was talking about.
"Hum, looks like Elysia is right." Nell murmured in a mosquito-like voice as she stroked her chin. When convinced, she chose to ask. "Nee, did I do something that you\'re dissatisfied with, Elena? This isn\'t fair, why only me. You\'ve never called my name, have you? What do I need to do to earn your respect?"
"Huh? What\'s wrong with you all of a sudden. But, who knows. If you want, join Lifa\'s friendly chit-chat tonight." Elena glanced at Elysia for a moment and decided on the proper way to handle this unruly little Goddess.
