Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination Chapter 651: Behind the Schemes (2)

Chapter 651: Behind the Schemes (2)

"Fufu, I'm fine. Just feeling a bit tired. Blame this on Mr Tyler. I didn't expect the banquet to be that crowded. Hm, there are over a hundred n.o.bles, perhaps? I was wondering what you're trying to achieve with this." Elysia put her hand to her cheek. She looked some distance behind Tyler at a middle-aged man from the n.o.bility of the neighboring city.

That person was one of the many people on the show who received extra surveillance from her.

"Haha, it was my fault. I didn't even think that things would be arranged like this. It was a sudden invitation and everyone came with no complaints. So, I guess they are just very interested in you, Miss Elysia. But, you need to remember that I only provided a place to host the event. The preparations and so on were arranged by the higher-ups. Even so, I need to apologize to you. The banquet was not conducive. One that is very regrettable. We couldn't dance on the dance floor because of the other guests." Tyler put his hand to his chest and gave a slight bow of apology.

"Um, all right, I understand. Speaking of the other guests, do you or your family have any enemies, Mr Tyler? Maybe, like someone or someone who doesn't like you or your family?" Elysia tried to dig a little deeper even though she knew Tyler wasn't lying.

"Why do you think that way, Miss Elysia?" Tyler felt a little surprised, but he still answered the question nevertheless. "But, well, regarding enemies... Maybe my enemies are just envious and spiteful people like the American people next to me."

"Hehe, it's kind of funny for you to mock me in that statement. If what you say is true, then you have a lot of enemies, my friend. For myself, I'd rather have a thousand friends than one enemy." Lucas swayed his gla.s.s of wine slightly with a subtle smile on his face. He leaned against the balcony railing and sipped his wine.

"This is just a suggestion from me if you want to listen to it. Someone's trying to trigger something big, and it's probably going to affect your family in something you don't want to happen." Elysia looked inside the banquet hall with a distant gaze. She could see Tyler's parents were conversing with the other n.o.bles, but her focus was not on them.

"Hmm?" Tyler turned around to check where Elysia was looking. Unfortunately, he couldn't pinpoint anyone because the banquet hall was crowded with people. "If I may ask, who do you refer to in your kindness advice, Miss Elysia?"

The question was asked, but Elysia had already turned around. She gazed at the glittering city of Bristol at night and ignored the others.

"Would you like some snacks, Ely? This cake is pretty good. Or, do you want that fine wine? It's good, and you won't get drunk." Sylvia offered a cake.

"No thanks, Sylvi. My mouth is feeling tired and I'm not in the mood to chew something. I don't drink wine." Elysia spoke in a whisper-like voice. She was not sure her fragile girly body could tolerate alcohol.

"Hm, what a shame, good cake. Ely doesn't want you. However, you still have me to eat you." Sylvia devoured the cake in one go.

Vanessa approached Sylvia's plate of snacks and took one at random. She held the snack with her paws and ate it slowly.

"Kyaa, so cute. Is it okay to let your p.u.s.s.y cat eat the chocolate cake, Miss Elysia? Psspss, puss~" The Chinese girl asked cheerfully. She tried to get the cat's attention, but she was entirely ignored by the cat.

Elysia glanced at the girl on her left and answered after a moment of pause. "Hmm... She's no ordinary cat, so it's fine."

"You made her dress like a princess cat. She's really attached to you, hmm." The Chinese girl smiled.

"Nee, Ely, is the culprit a middle-aged man with dull white hair that you have observed several times? Do you want me to teach that person a lesson? He surprisingly pretended to be friendly at all when greeting you, but his aura said otherwise." Sylvia tapped Elysia's shoulder with her finger and pointed at the banquet hall with her thumb.

"Yes, the mastermind behind the a.s.sa.s.sination is that person. His family has a grudge against the Morgan Family. However, you don't need to do anything because my master has already given a punishment to that person, Sylvi. She is so angry because of his scheme." Elysia shook her head.

"Oh, um, alright then. It was the end for that person. He dared to create a scheme against Ely, especially when her master was around. A divine punishment from a G.o.ddess is beyond terrifying. He has grudges or discontent towards others, but using us to create incidents. That's funny." Sylvia snorted, but she looked satisfied.

She didn't need to know what kind of divine punishment Elysia'a master bestowed on that person. That person was already like a dead man in her eyes.

'Fufu, the long agony between life and death is a much crueler punishment than a quick death. He may wish to die, but he cannot do so because he will lose all his five senses. His body will rot, but his soul will remain in his body until the angel of death picks him up. Am I doing the right thing, Ely? Hehe, hmm~' Elena laughed like a psychopath.

'Mm, that's enough. Let the person enjoy life for a while. He will only notice his illness tomorrow morning. You frighten me sometimes, master...' Elysia got gooseb.u.mps slightly when she heard Elena's laughter. It was like Elena was about to commit a ma.s.sacre just because of the a.s.sa.s.sination attempt just now.

'Hehe, he's not worth my time and attention. He has already received retribution for trying to harm my Ely. Sorry for scaring you, Ely.' Elena chuckled once more, and suddenly her tone changed one hundred and eighty degrees. 'Anywayy, don't go back to that banquet hall for at least an hour. You can chat with Sylvi, Erina or anyone. After that, you can excuse yourself for leaving the event because you feel tired.'

"Excuse me, Miss Erina. Do you know what language Miss Elysia and Miss Sylvia speak? It's a bit strange to say, but we couldn't find such language in our database." Lucas approached Erina and asked politely.

"My apologies, but we don't know either. Every time Elysia-san talks to Sylvia-san, it's like an unknown secret code even to us." Erina glanced at Elysia once and shook her head.

"Well then, do you know where they came from? I heard Miss Elysia flew from j.a.pan to London a few days ago. Do you know what she was doing there?" Lucas tried to dig deeper into someone who looked like Elysia's friend.

"I don't really understand either, but she went to the northern region to pick up Sylvia-san, maybe? She never talked about it further." Erina shook her head once again. She doesn't want to talk much about her friend at foreign parties.

After that, she begged herself to go near Elysia for a small talk.

"Traveling merchant, healer saint, two extremely strong bodyguards, of mysterious origin and language. Everything about them is gray and shrouded in the unknown. This has me baffled, but they get my full attention now." Lucas tapped his chin and smiled faintly.

He then approached Tyler and gave his rival a pat on the shoulder. "You'll only be ignored when the girls have small talk like that. Hehe, it doesn't feel good when you speak at the wrong time."

After saying that, Lucas went to his team to discuss something.

The other young elites were also unable to enter into the conversation between Elysia and Sylvia. Erina even just stayed beside Elysia to avoid conversation with other people.

An hour pa.s.sed, and Elysia excused herself to leave the event.

"Ah, that's fine. We have prepared a place to stay for all of you in this mansion. If you wish, I will have someone guide you to your room, Miss Elysia." Tyler felt a little disappointed, but he couldn't do much.

He had told his men to send some guests home gently, and he wished for a chance to dance with this angelic beauty when the dance floor was free of guests. Yet, his efforts resulted in failure.

"Mm, sure." Elysia gave a slight nod and gave a wink to Erina. She had reminded Erina of something, and she hoped this girl would understand what she meant to do soon.

A maid then came on Tyler's orders, and Elysia followed the maid away, with Sylvia following her from the side.

Before leaving the balcony, she gave an eye signal to Erina's grandfather.

"Hmm." Mitsuzuka just nodded slightly. He already knew everything from Erina. That was why he didn't take much of a role in the event. After all, he took the time to examine anyone who dared to approach his granddaughter with an intimidating aura.

After Elysia left, Erina also excused herself to go. However, she decided not to stay with her grandfather's business as an excuse. She then left the mansion with her grandfather and the j.a.panese elite team.

Erina looked at the Morgan Family's mansion once more and got into the military hummer car. Their destination was the military base at the port.

"Uhm..." Erina took out a small folded piece of paper from her glove.

"What's that letter? From who?" Mitsuzuka asked with a raised eyebrow.

"This is from Elysia-san. She gave this letter secretly when no one was paying attention." Erina took a deep breath and read the contents of the letter.

"Grandfather, Elysia-san, asked us to go straight to j.a.pan tonight. Why would someone dare to do that to Elysia-san?

Don't they know that Elysia-san is protected by two super bodyguards? I'm afraid tonight there will be bloodshed there." Erina gripped the letter and looked at her grandfather worriedly.

"She is a smart girl. She knows what she has to do. But, there is no vengeance in her eyes. So, it won't be bloodshed. I can guess that she will run away from the mansion tonight to get out of all schemes." Mitsuzuka still looked calm. He was somewhat relieved that it was a letter from Elysia instead of someone else.

"But, can't Elysia-san come with us to go to j.a.pan?" Erin scratched her head. She didn't understand what Elysia had in mind.

"Elysia still has to wait for the holy crow to return, remember? Besides, she is still the spotlight of the night. She gave the Morgan Family an honor, and that way, we can leave without any hindrance or pressure from them to stay." Mitsuzuka folded his arms as if he could predict what was happening.

"I see... So, Elysia-san, for us too. She deserves the t.i.tle of a saint..." Erina took her impression of Elysia to the next level. Elysia was targeted in an a.s.sa.s.sination attempt, but there was no grudge, hatred, or panic.

Erina looked back and hoped to see Elysia again soon.
