Chapter 268: Science Knowledge

"Miss Elysia, what are you reading?" Ariel drew closer to Elysia on the bed. She and Elysia had the same paper number, so she would sleep with the future Goddess. It really made her nervous, excited and honored.

Elysia's body, which had just finished taking a shower, gave off a scent that was more fragrant than usual. For some reason, Ariel felt comfortable just being around this girl.

"Oh, this? This is a book about science, I want to understand more about natural law." Elysia showed the book title she was reading.

"I see... If I am allowed to help you to understand science, then I will be happy to do it. I know about that knowledge deep enough." Ariel put her hand on her upper chest and volunteered sincerely. Helping the future Goddess was exceptional merit for a better future.

Elysia's eyes lit up, and her face was sparkling with joy. It couldn't be more than a brilliant idea. This holy knight lady was so considerate and understanding.

Unfortunately, when she was going to answer Ariel, the bathroom door suddenly opened. Ella and Evelyn walked out of there with a fresh expression and a sweet scent.

"Thank you for waiting. Rosie, Miss Ariel, do you want to take a shower first before going to bed?" Ella tied her hair into a ponytail and asked the two girls who were waiting for their turn.

"Mou~ Ely, there are two more bathrooms in that bathroom. And you locked the main door too when you went to take a shower first." Evelyn puffed out her cheeks. She didn't know why, but she wanted to blame her best friend for no apparent reason.

Elysia just gave an innocent expression and spread her arms a little as if she didn't know what Evelyn was accusing.

"Uhm, I am very happy if you can help me understand more about science, Miss Ariel. However, it looks like you will take a shower first." Elysia took another look at Ariel and gave an answer that had been delayed.

"Hum, I'll be right back." Ariel got up from the bed and went straight to the bathroom. She had to make sure she was clean and smell good because she would sleep beside the future Goddess! Her pride and confidence would crumble if a negative response came out of Elysia.

"Wait, Miss Ariel. Please don't lock the main bathroom door. There are two more bathrooms, right?" Rosie immediately stopped playing with Vanessa because she also needed a shower.

Well, Ariel didn't lock the door even though Rosie didn't ask for it.

Seeing Rosie leave, Vanessa jumped onto the next bed and lay down on her master's lap.

"Hum-hum, smells good and fluffy. What do you think, Vann? Is Rosie a good girl?" Elysia hugged the pampered white cat and stroked the cat's soft fur.

"Meow." Vanessa gave a subtle nod. She could easily judge a person by gut feeling, and it became more detailed when they touched her body.

"Ely, what were you talking about with Miss Ariel just now? Is there something with science?" Ella sat on the bed next to Elysia. She suddenly felt curious and wanted to know what she had missed.

"Uhm, is it because of that book, Ely? Are you studying the laws of science and the world?" Evelyn sat near Elysia and pointed to a rather intricate picture book with a world map on it.

"Hehe, yes. I'm studying some of the laws of nature and the universe more deeply in order to help me deal with accursed monsters in the future. As I said previously, most magic can be neutralized by them with ease." Elysia gave a light chuckle, but it sounded like a sigh.

She and Elena didn't know much about science. Their limited knowledge was a fatal weakness. They wanted to make up for that by studying and seeking more knowledge.

The only thing she could rely on was her magic, after all. What if a situation where the accursed monsters she faced in the future were the almighty one and could negate all of the magical energy no matter how big it was?

Elysia and Elena hadn't found the answer, and it was what worried them. The only thing they could think of was to create a powerful shockwave from the distance and use the resulting kinetic energy to crush the enemy.

However, would it work? And again, it was still too little to deal with unforeseen circumstances. They needed more magic techniques to inflict physical damage.

"Are you going to fight against those accursed monsters again? You died just yesterday, Ely. It was yesterday and for heaven's sake your master is the Goddess of Light. Why does it have to be you?" Evelyn looked straight into Elysia's beautiful purplish-blue eyes as if she wanted to see deep into the soul of her best friend.

"Because of what? Because I want to protect the people around me. I was blessed with powers beyond the laws of the world because I didn't belong to this world. Eve, Ella, sorry I made you cry at that time." Elysia looked down a little, unable to look into Evelyn's eyes for long. She still repeated her apologies again, even though her friends had forgiven her.

"Why? Why were you still in that dangerous area even though you had saved the students you could save, Ely? You know yourself, right? No one can save everyone." Evelyn nodded slightly, but she went on to the subject that was bothering her.

She didn't dare to ask that before, but the atmosphere this time was so supportive and encouraged her to ask directly.

"What I was thinking while helping our fellow students was you, Eve. I was desperate just to find you and make sure you weren't in that dangerous area." Elysia confessed the initial part of her intention at the time, not the whole. However, tears filled her eyes as she said that.

"Ely, sorry. Please forgive me. My words just now were a bit harsh. I didn't mean that, really. I just don't want to see you hurt again, I don't want to feel that anymore." Evelyn got infected because of her best friend's teary eyes, and she also got one in her eyes.

"Um." Elysia wiped the tears around her eyes. She did the same for Evelyn too. It wasn't a moment to feel sad, and she didn't want to make girls cry.

Evelyn just let her best friend wipe away her tears. However, she came closer and hugged her best friend without any prior notice. Ella, who was also affected by the atmosphere, also embraced her friends.

"Meo, meow." Vanessa voiced out her protests, but no one gave her relief. Even her master was caught in the arms of two girls, just like her.

Didn't these two girls even care that a poor white cat was being squeezed and trapped in their midst? Vanessa wondered incredulously. She felt something like this had happened before.

Evelyn's cheeks turned pink gradually because she felt something squirm around her tummy. She felt that with a strange feeling, and her best friend seemed to be on the same page. However, the latter was even more embarrassed than her.

"Eve, Ella, you know... Vann is stuck in the middle. She is trying to squirm out." Elysia wanted to laugh but also wanted to run away because she was embarrassed.

Yet, she only chose to talk. Despite being a girl herself, she was still so embarrassed if she was hugged. Only she knew what Elena was saying with the teasing laugh from her Soul Realm, and it made the blush on her face even worse.

"Wha-" Ella was both surprised and worried about the cat's condition. She immediately released his hug and freed her friends.

Evelyn did the same shortly after. She looked down, and sure enough, the adorable cat was on Elysia's lap.

"Snort." Vanessa wore a sullen expression and climbed up her master's body.

She climbed onto her master's shoulder and took shelter there after asking permission. That way, she would be in the safest place and also close to her master.

"Kisaa!" Vanessa tried to intimidate Evelyn with her little paws. This girl had never been hugged so tightly and felt short of breath... Maybe, she needed to transform into her magnificent winged tiger form to make this girl understand her pain?

"Hush, hussh, don't be angry and cranky, Vann. Eve didn't do that on purpose. She likes you, you see? Eve, Vann is mad at you." Elysia stroked Vanessa's head with a wry smile.

"Oh, no. Sorry, nice, sweet, sweet cat Vannesa." Evelyn apologized and stretched her hand to the cat, but her hand was brushed away by the cat. "Wha- she really doesn't like me anymore. After one month we build rapport..." Evelyn felt a little devastated and made a hurtful expression.

After that, Elysia and Ella tried to help Evelyn make up with Vanessa. Even though Ella also received a little bit of blame from Vanessa, it wasn't as much as Evelyn, who had squeezed her head-on twice.

The glum atmosphere and things Evelyn had lifted were abandoned right away. It was changed back to the peaceful and calm one that had been before. Evelyn and Ella tried to assist Elysia with science knowledge, albeit they didn't know many things. It was nothing more than a nice and weighty topic of discussion.

"Hum, hum-hum~ Ball of yarn, ball of yarn boing-boing, boing~" Evelyn hummed a light song while playing with Vanessa. They finally made up as if Vanessa's cranky scene had never happened before.
