Chapter 906 Everyone's Spirit Bonds

"Hm-mm~" Ai's mood was so flowery now.

She didn't know and didn't care whether she and Ely were one entity, as the Goddess of Life speculated. The only thing she could comprehend from what had just happened, she was officially Elysia's twin sister, and their spirits were bound by a strong bond.

Recalling Elysia's final struggle against the Seraph of the End in the Boundless Realm, Ai feels she owes her life to her twin sister. Because of that, she would never let Elysia get hurt again, no matter what.

'...' Rhea looked at Elysia and Ai with a thought in mind. If Ai is Elysia's other half, like Elena's situation, is Ai also her master?

However, Rhea immediately put that thought aside because she considered Ai was Elysia's twin sister, just like Elysia had believed. Their entities were different, and there were two spirits, not in the case of Oceanid and his ability to divide himself.

"Ely, let's do our spirit bonding ceremony again. Our previous ceremony had a mistake on my side. Let's do this one right, and we can forge a new perfect one." Nell knew her spirit's connection to Elysia and Elena was only half-baked. Still, she intended to make it a new full-fledged one.

"With pleasure." Elysia nodded in agreement as if she understood what she had to do. She asked Rhea via spirit telepathy to ask what she should do.

Nell then pressed her head to Elysia's forehead and performed a spirit-bonding ritual.

Rhea instructed Elysia, and Elysia released Nell's spirit mark from her upper dantian without hesitation. The spirit mark was still there. They would only repair the spirit bonding without removing the old one to avoid backlash on Nell's side.

Nell sent a new divine mark to Elysia, and the latter accepted the contract voluntarily. Elysia then tied Nell's spirit to her, and Nell's old spirit mark fused with the new one.

'Your spirit mark is currently shining a beautiful gold, Nell. We can expect more from you now. You are a good Little Goddess, no longer a mischievous little fairy.' Elena was mesmerized to observe Nell's divine mark that connected their spirits twinkling with dazzling holy light. It was no longer pale yellow but bright golden.

'Yeah, I'll be in your care, Ely. I've learned my lesson.' Nell smiled faintly and opened her eyes. She shook her head as she remembered her first encounter with Elysia.

'Nell, thank you for having a faith in us. You all mean so much to us.' Elysia stared at the crystal clear blue eyes with a tender gaze.

'You don't have to say it, Ely. I invest my future in you. To be honest, I just realized that you have a body constitution similar to mine. I expect more when you have cultivated your body to the divine level. You can enter into spirit contracts with more powerful entities that can strengthen you. My big sister can teach you a fusion technique with your contracted entities through absolute spirit bonding.' Nell looked up while imagining how strong Elysia would become after fusion with the powerful Goddesses in the future.

'Heehee~ I still don't know if I can do it or not. I only have three dantians and seven chakra spots. I'm not sure I can contract with too many people.' Elisia was flattered.

'That is not true. Do you know, I'm known as the Goddess with the most contracted entities. They were my dear contracted angels. One hundred and twenty-eight of them have a spirit bond with me. So I know you can use those ten spots for lots of spirit bond marks, just like me.' Nell was proud but also sad that all her beloved angels were no longer alive.

'Please don't be sad. We will always be with you.' Elysia tries to comfort Nell.

She didn't know if Nell's assumption was correct because she had yet to ascend to the divine level, and the divine spirit mark took up a lot of space.

'Yeah, thank you. I am now your Contracted Goddess. My name is Nell, the Goddess of Blessings, pleased to be acquainted with you, Elysia, the Unknown Goddess.' Nell smiled sweetly and flew towards her big sister.

'Unknown Goddess? Is that my title?' Elysia felt a bit confused.

'No, but your temporary title only known to us, your pantheon. Your past is still shrouded in mystery, but I'd love to dig into it with you and everyone else.' Nell hummed on her big sister's shoulder.

Vanessa and Yuuki then came closer to Elysia. They thought they needed to do another spirit bonding, and that made Elysia amused.

"Our current spirit connection has already been established. There's no need to renew it." Elysia stroked Vanessa and Yuuki's heads.

"Um, we know. We just wanted to give you a hug, master." Vanessa meekly nodded and hugged Elysia.

"..." Yuuki also hugged Elysia silently.

Elysia was a little surprised, but she gently stroked the back of her lovely beast girls.

"It must have been a long journey with many hardships. We don't know how many tragedies you have gone through in the past, but going through multiple samsara and reincarnations is not trivial.

Even the Ancient Gods on Earth erased most of their memories of the past to avoid their bitter pain. It's OK not to dwell on the past. You are Elysia, our beloved master. Let's live our new beautiful lives. We will uncover all truths and mysteries together, master." Yuuki spoke softly near Elysia's ear, but it was enough for everyone to hear.

"Thank you, Yuuki. You make me feel much more at ease. You may be right, and I just didn't realize it until now." Elisia smiled gently.

"Mm, we will defeat the last Ruvoid Gods and exterminate the accursed from our world. After that, we will have all the time we want to do whatever we need to do. We will win, and no one will die." Vanessa declared her motivation positively.

"En." Elysia nodded.

After that, Yuuki and Vanessa let go of their hugs from Elysia as they knew several other people wanted to form spirit bonds with Elysia.

"Xentia is next. Xentia will lend all of Xentia's power to Goddess Ely with all her heart! We will eradicate evil and darkness. Shine light into the world. Xentia is very honored to have this opportunity!" Xentia stepped forward with great enthusiasm.

"You are so sweet, Xentia. I am glad you are our hero." Elysia gave Xentia a head pat.

"Xentia is sweet? However, you have never tasted Xentia, though? How do you know that Xentia is sweet?" Xentia felt a bit confused.

"That's a compliment." Elysia explained briefly with amusement.

"O-oh!" Xentia dropped her fist onto her open palm.

After that, Elysia and Xentia conducted a spirit-bonding ceremony with Elysia as the hostmaster.

"Heehee~ Now Xentia can feel you inside. Ah, can Xentia also communicate to all contracted ones via spirit telepathy? Wow, this is amazing, heehee~" Xentia experimented a little and found it to be great. She rubbed her cheeks onto Elysia's with pleasure.

'Hehe, we might be able to do many great things in the future with absolute spirit bonding, but not all contracted entities can reach that level.' Rhea spoke to Xentia via telepathy.

'Xentia will learn and will definitely reach that level one day.' Xentia expressed her determination and will.

The next one was Sylvia to do the spirit bonding ceremony. The devil princess had no problems and entrusted her life to her dear friend. Instead, She felt honored to be able to establish a spirit relationship with a Goddess in training.

"Hmm-mm~ Muach, I'm in your care, Ely." Sylvia wrapped her arms around Elisia's neck and placed a kiss on the cheek.

"I am also in your care, Sylvi. Welcome to our core group." Elysia held Sylvia's chin and rubbed the devil princess's rosy lips. "You're so naughty to suddenly kiss me."

"Hehe, that's fine, right?" Sylvia blushed slightly and immediately ran away from Elysia with a giggle. She joined Vanessa and Yuuki to tell a little tale.

"..." Lynn stared at Goddess Lina for a moment while grasping her hands. She felt that the relationship between Elysia and the Goddess of Light was so complex, but who would have thought that the core was Elysia, who connected the Goddesses into one force.

"It's still quite mindblowing, isn't it? Would you like to form a contract with the Goddess of Light instead, my daughter?" Luna could guess what was in Lynn's mind.

"Ah, uh." Lynn wished it was true, but she couldn't because the other party showed almost no interest in entering into a spirit contract with her.

'Did you fall for me? I am Ely's Guardian Goddess, Lynn. Make a spirit contract with Ely, and we can spend time together with everyone as usual. I hope nothing changes.' Elena sent telepathy to Lynn.

'En!' Lynn nodded happily. The Goddess she admired the most recognized her, and she would happily entrust her fate and life to Elysia.

Lynn and Luna took turns carrying out the spirit bonding ceremony with Elysia. They asked to place their spirit marks in the same spot.

After that, Luna suddenly hugged Lynn and Elysia. "Fufu, aren't we now a big family?"

"Uuh, it's hard for me to breathe, Luna. Please let me go." Elysia asked politely while patting Luna's arm repeatedly. Her face was buried in Luna's bosom, and she had trouble breathing.

"That's right, mother. You can't hug people and bury their faces into your breasts." Lynn pursed her lips and poked her mother's breasts.

"Aww, that tickles, Lynn." Luna took a step back and covered her breasts.

"..." Elysia took a deep breath and let it out slowly. She then turned around, facing her first friends in this world.
