Chapter 932 Dating Bait

It had been two days since Luna announced the abdication and ascension to the dragon king as her successor. Protests, objections, and opposition arose as expected, but their former Empress' decision was irrevocable.

The Goddess of Light then graced her presence before the beastkins to proclaim her revelation. Evroria Family would assist the divines in fighting the accursed and Ruvoid Gods to save the world. With such a noble purpose and clauses, the masses couldn't say anything but accept that fact, including the other supreme rulers.

The dragons reigned over the central region to replace Empress Luna because it was appointed by the divine herself. Kazuma, the dragon king, inevitably voiced his promise to manage and protect that region like a true Emperor.

"They bestowed this on me... The other supreme rulers have quietened down, and all parties have recognized their new Emperor. However, haven't I had a lot of work now?" Kazuma groaned and moved away from his desk. He couldn't bear to look at the pile of papers and documents all day.

"Dear, your title is no longer dragon king, but Dragon Emperor. The territory you rule is no longer our dragonic mountains, but the whole Yhester Region. Look, my adorable daughter and I are here to help you. Am I right, my sweetie Nara?" The dragon queen persuaded her husband to return to work.

"Un, papa is lazy, only good at fighting. Mama is diligent and smart. Here, mama has sorted out the documents that papa needs to sign." Nara held his father's robe hem and handed over a pile of documents. She then pointed to the documents piled in the corner. "That paper is useless, ignore it. We'll finish this quickly, and let's play."

"Sigh, is this what that vixen often does every day? Becoming a supreme ruler over a vast region isn't easy. However, what's with that pile of documents in the corner of the room, Azumi?" Kazuma scratched his head awkwardly.

"Our daughter has become so smart~ Ah, that, we'll just ignore it. It's a pile of useless proposals from some shameless party. They want to take advantage of your new throne to take advantage of your ignorance of the old situation." Azumi stroked her daughter's head proudly.

"Hou." Kazuma returned to his desk. He now minimized his to-do list because he only needed to look at the documents his wife and daughter brought him, ignoring the other pile of papers.

"I wonder what they are doing now. Evroria Family is sure so scary because of their ability to predict the future. There were only two of them, and they had gone with the divine to fight the Ruvoid Gods. I hope everything ends well without many heroes dying." Kazuma looked up at the ceiling.

"It was a tough decision on Luna Evroria's side. She and her only daughter would risk their lives to save the world. That divine class final battle would definitely be terrifying. She had already predicted where he would fall, and she made sure to go as a world-saving hero by the divine beings' side. She wants to protect her people and everyone. She is indeed a vixen, but deep down good at heart." Azumi muttered softly while looking at her daughter's hair.

"..." Kazuma was silent, but he admitted it. Luna probably wouldn't come back alive after participating in that divine class battle. That was why a strong and wise new ruler had to ascend the throne immediately to avoid usurping the vacant throne.

"They forced us out of our seclusion and sacred mountains. But, well... I shall create a great place for beastkins and the dragons." Kazuma sighed as he remembered his promise to Luna and the divine beings.

Meanwhile, Elysia's group was already in the Ariatha Kingdom, the northern region of the Human Continent. They tracked the trail of a Ruvoid Avatar and ended up in the territory that Evelyn's parents ruled.

*Achew*

Luna sneezed, and Yusagi immediately handed over a handkerchief like a reliable servant.

"Mother, have you caught a cold?" Lynn was astonished.

"An Empress would never get sick over something trivial like that, Lynn. I don't know, maybe there's a lot of people talking about me behind my back right now." Luna shrugged her shoulders.

"Then, what are we doing here?" Vanessa asked in surprise.

"Isn't that obvious? We're watching, protecting, and spying on any enemies who might be after Ely and Ai. It's just the two of them now. We've also got the Goddesses' approval." Sylvia adjusted her sunglasses and smoothed her detective cape.

"We just look like stalkers..." Evelyn smiled in amusement.

"Hmph, Ai, that girl... She is Ely's twin sister, but she requested something like a date, just the two of them? And Yuuki will get her turn this afternoon." Sylvia clenched her fist.

"Are you jealous?" Ella peeked to see Elysia and Ai walking the city streets hand in hand.

"Do I look jealous?" Sylvia didn't want to admit it, but she looked forward to spending some leisure time with Elysia and everyone.

"..." Dori just watched Elysia and Ai silently. What the Sea God had said when she and Elysia had met him two days ago was still fresh in her mind.

Instead of them looking for him, he was the one who came to them. She apologized and then asked permission to serve Elysia, the new Goddess, as a servant in front of everyone.

"I expected it. You have threads of destiny leading to them. You don't need to apologize since you are not bound to worship me in the first place. I am a free God. You can do what you want." Sea God said that casually but gave off an air of indifference as if he didn't care about Dori.

However, before he turned to leave, he left a wise message. "Serve her well and help her as much as you can. She is beyond precious. By following her, you will be able to see a beauty of wonder like what you always hoped to see. The world is not as beautiful as your expectations, but by being with them, you maybe find your paradise."

Dori's belief had been solidified in the last two days, and she felt entrusting her future to Elysia was the best choice. She was already becoming Elysia's familiar now, intertwined in the threads of destiny that bound their spirits.

Furthermore, she also received a lot of wonderful senior sisters! Several Goddesses apparently were Elysia's familiars too!

"..." Ella glanced at Yusagi and Luna. She had come up with a bright idea of when they would return to the holy city tonight.

She felt responsible for Ariel and needed to confirm her holy knight's condition immediately. She wished to bind her trusted guard to follow her as her servant if possible. That way, she could save Ariel's life physically and mentally from the outside and inside. Ariel lacked life energy, and she would endure the burden for Ariel too.

'Yes, I'll do it and ask permission to Ely right away. It would be difficult if it was just Ariel alone even if I gave her a mountain of treasure. However, if it's the two of us and with everyone's help, we can recover the lost life energy faster.' Ella made up her mind to do it tonight.

"..." Ai glanced at the roof of a building. She could sense that the girls were following them under the protection of an invisible talisman. Still, she ignored them since they wouldn't disturb her personal moment with Elysia.

She asked Elysia, her little sister, to go out to do what humans usually do to pass the time and have fun. The girls called it a date, and that was how the two of them got there right now. Yuuki's turn would be this afternoon, so she had to enjoy her reward.

"There seems to be a small celebration here. Perhaps, the farmers are celebrating their grand harvest?" Elysia looked at the crowd in the city center. The townspeople went there as if there was some exciting event.

"I don't think so, Ely. There is a group of people who have just subdued or exterminated evil monsters. Let's say, the townspeople shall welcome the return of the hero group." Ai tucked a lock of her hair and blinked her eyes at the crowd, but she had no interest in going there.

"Then, let's stay away from the crowds. This town should have a vendor selling some interesting foods like crepes or sweets. The flower garden is also nice since it's still early. I'll pick a beautiful flower for you." Elysia looked at the town's map for a moment, then suggested going through another path. She walked away while holding Ai's arm.

"I'm the big sister, and I'm the one who has to lead the way and decide where we go on our dates, Ely." Ai held out her hand, asking for the map.

"Sure, here it is." Elysia handed over the map to Ai. This town was not too far from the capital city and must have lots of exciting things.

Although, they were actually available baits used to lure the Ruvoid Avatar out. Elena and the Goddesses had been watching in separate dimensions, and Doll One was ready to ambush the enemy when the time came.

Regardless of that situation, Elysia was enjoying her time with Ai, and so was Ai. The countermeasure was set up, and there was no worry left.

Meanwhile, a group of mounted knights had just arrived in that town after completing their extermination mission. The brave knights and heroes came with the good news of victory. Still, the prominent heroes fled from the spotlight after receiving a grateful reception from the mayor.
