Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 437: Asking for Protection

"Huff, I'm getting a little sentimental for some unknown reason. That's fine, Sylvia. I understand." Elysia closed her eyes and let out a soft breath. It wasn't him to make a fuss about things she shouldn't be concerned about.

"Please, forgive me? Y-you forgive me, and you don't hate me at all? Even though I'm a devil, though? You, a human, want to protect a devil under your care? Can I trust for this?" Sylvia brought her face closer to Elysia's.

"Uhm, you're too close." Elysia opened her eyes and backed away a little.

Then, she answered Sylvia's string of doubtful questions. "Yes, is something wrong? I just need to be the one to punish you with my own hands if you dare to do something evil. I don't know why you ran away from home, but your presence runs the risk of causing worse problems. I'm keeping an eye on you at all times to guarantee that no trouble will come because of you."

"Ah, thank goodness..." Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief, and her body relaxed without her noticing it.

Instantly, Sylvia remembered something and turned around. She looked at the Divine Goddess with a slight sense of loss. Nevertheless, she decided to say what she had in mind.

"Can we be friend, o the Goddess of Light? This may sound insincere, but I need protection from the possible threat, namely the Devil God. I can't think of anyone in mind other than you for this. I will be a good devil. I will also listen to the advice of you and my friend Elysia, your precious disciple, about anything, and above anything else. I wished for your help, please help me." Sylvia clasped her hands in prayer.

"..." Elena had the urge to laugh, but she held it in as best she could. It would sound very evil to laugh at someone else's plea.

"Hmm, what should I do, hmm? Just now, I remembered a certain devil girl accusing me of being a ghost.

But, now, the devil girl in question made her wish and prayed to me? A devil is afraid of the Devil God and begs a Human Goddess for help? It's pretty complicated, mm." Elena rested her cheek while looking the other way. She played like someone who had a hard time making a choice.

"Wha, please forgive me! It wasn't my intention to treat you like a ghost. Elysia's master, my friend's master, please forgive me for my bad behavior." Sylvia bowed a little and wiggled her clasped palms. It was like she paid her obeisance.

"Well, that's fine. But, I won't protect you from anything if my precious disciple doesn't give you her approval. Your request needs to be granted by my Elysia too." Elena secretly gave a wink to Elysia.

Now, everything became easy to handle for Elysia. The misunderstanding was resolved, and perhaps, Sylvia could be added to Elysia's friend list.

Hearing that, Sylvia turned around once again to make her plea. "Please grant my wish. I need protection from you too not only from humans, but also from the Devil God, or maybe the evil devils!"

"Uhm, can you tell me why you seem scared of something? You, a devil, are afraid of the Devil God? What did he do to you to cause you to be like this?" Elysia knew that Elena only left the decision to her. But, when she wanted to ask for more detailed information, a notable guess suddenly crossed her mind. "Oh wait, did you run away from home because of the Devil God, Sylvi?"

"Sylvi? Is that a nickname for me? But, that sounds good." After saying that with an approving nod, Sylvia immediately grabbed Elysia's hand with an expression full of grievance. "You have no idea what I've been through, Elysi, Ely. All right, I'll call you Ely. You know, since that terrible night--"

For the next few minutes, Sylvia told about what she had experienced in the last few days since the arrival of the Devil God to her father's palace. Although, it sounded like a girl-to-girl heart rant, an expression of grievance.

"Oh my... He is such a bad guy to bother you all the time. It's only natural for you to worry about your chastity when that Devil God presumably goes in and out of your private room as if it were his. But, he comes beside your bed almost every morning too, huh... That's really scary." Elysia tried to imagine Sylvia's situation and why this Devil Girl had fled so far into the Human Continent.

"Un, un! I'm glad someone finally understands me." Sylvia nodded innocently, then put on an irritated expression. "Yes! That Devil God is very evil and is actually very hated by devils. If not for his divine knowledge and help, I believe my father and the other devils would not have made a deal with that Devil God."

After excitedly conveying her grievances, Sylvia went limp with a bit of disappointment. She leaned back and looked up at the ceiling with a sad expression. "Sigh, my father who used to care so much for me even suddenly didn't care about me. Looks like he sold me to the Devil God because of some other deal."

"Is that really what happened? Your father didn't ignore you because he was busy preparing for what the Devil God had told him, right? To deal with the inevitable accursed monsters, right?" Elysia tried to find out the source of Sylvia's troubles.

"I won't run away if it's true. My father even forgot his promise and just postponed it to his heart's content. In fact, the one thing that prompted me to run away immediately was because I had already spoken to him about my worries and problems. You know what he gave me in response. me, Ely?" Sylvia turned to look at her friend's face with a faint smile plastered on her face.

She was pretty happy to see someone worrying about her. It indicated that her friend cared for her.

"What was the response from him?" Elysia blinked a few times as Sylvia seemed to be waiting for her to respond.

"En, just indifferent. He just put my problems aside as if they didn't matter. He didn't even take any preventive action or anything against the source of my problem." Sylvia shrugged her shoulders and let out a sigh.

"And here I am. Even my father and Devil God would never have thought in their wildest minds that I would enter the most dangerous place for devils. I didn't even leave any traces or aura behind. They wouldn't be able to find me, even if they were going to find me. Hum-hum, I'm smart, right?" Sylvia looked up and smiled proudly.

"..." Elena covered her mouth as she almost burst into laughter. She wasn't as good as Elysia at controlling facial expressions after all. This Devil Princess was indeed silly, and surprisingly, this girl was so proud of it.

"You two can continue your conversation. I need to leave for some reason. Farewell." After saying that, Elena simply disappeared and fled to the Soul Realm. She burst out laughing as she couldn't help it.

Elysia rolled her eyes at Sylvia's statement and also at hearing Elena's laughter. She couldn't do anything because she became worried about this Devil Princess's line of thought.

"Wouldn't your father be worried? I wouldn't defend you if we happened to run into Devil Emperor Dylan or maybe Devil God." Elysia didn't want to say much about the problem of the Devil Princess running away from home. However, at the very least, she needed to express at least one sentence of concern.

"Then, he needs to try harder to get my forgiveness. Hmph!" Sylvia snorted and folded her arms.

"A sulky girl is hard to persuade. That's trouble and trouble for you Devil Emperor Dylan." Elysia muttered under her breath. Then, she didn't struggle with that problem anymore.

For the next few moments, Sylvia took the time to ask Elysia a few things. Since the Goddess of Light just left, she also used that time to talk about many things with Elysia.

"Hmph! Then, he needs to try harder to get my forgiveness." Sylvia snorted and folded her arms. Then, she smiled playfully at Elysia. "But you promised to protect me, right? Your Goddess master said that too."

"A sulky girl is hard to persuade. That's trouble and trouble for you Devil Emperor Dylan." Elysia muttered under her breath. Then, she didn't struggle with that problem anymore.

"Yes, we said that." Elysia replied and stroked Rhea's head gently. She telepathically asked the latter not to overthink about prejudice.

"Hehe..." Sylvia chuckled happily.

For the next few moments, Sylvia took the time to ask Elysia a few things. Since the Goddess of Light just left, she also used that opportunity to talk about many things with Elysia. She wanted to know her friend better without any pretense.

What made Sylvia sad was that the cute baby always ignored her no matter what she did. But she just thought it was just a shy baby.

On the other hand, Elysia also took the opportunity to get to know Sylvia better. However, his main goal was to interrogate the Devil Princess subtly and indirectly.

"Ah, we've been here for quite some time. Em? Forty-five minutes have passed just like that?" Elysia checked the clock on the wall, then she spoke to Nell via telepathy to inquire about the situation on the other side.

After getting confirmation, Elysia carried Rhea and stood up. "Let's go. My presence is awaited."

"Mkay~" Sylvia also stood up and walked out side-by-side with Elysia.
