38. Elena’s Sudden Inspiration
Through the teleportation magic, she accurately returned to the living room of her own mansion.
Elena’s mansion was located in the central city of humanity. This city had no name, because ever since the beginning of the Eternal Night Era, this place had been a barren wasteland. A year ago, a group of Lis’s clergy began to rebuild this place, and her mansion was one of them.
In the vast living room, under the ceiling decorated with a luxurious golden lion totem, several men were anxiously pacing back and forth.
Suddenly, with the appearance of a teleportation magic circle, Pesa and Elena actually appeared out of thin air in the center of the living room. They and the few people who had been active here looked at each other, and for a moment, the scene was a little awkward.
“Lady Elena, you’re back! We all thought you were dead. Thank goodness… oh, the goddess bless you,” an old man even knelt on the ground in excitement.
Elena was alive!
Everyone present had seen Elena fall in a pool of blood with their own eyes.
Most people thought she was dead, and a small number of people thought she had been taken away by the orcs. It had only taken a few hours to notify the half-orcs… those cat-folk and fox-folk.
“Duke Robert, I’ve said it before. The gods are dead, right?”
“Elena sighed.”
“Yes, my Lady Elena. Your being alive is more important than anything.”
“You look beautiful today.”
“As expected, the people who said you were dead were all spreading rumors. I will hold them accountable!”
“There’s no need. Let’s just stop here. I don’t want this matter to continue to ferment,” Elena shook her head, her voice also a little cold.
The Duke, who had no idea what was going on, nodded.
Elena didn’t explain anything. She glanced at Pesa, and the latter clapped her hands and asked everyone to leave the mansion. And these people would quickly spread the news that Elena was alive, so that the humans and half-orcs would not continue to panic.
“What now? Do you need me to draw a magic circle for you?”
“Why are you so good to me?” Elena asked, looking at the diligent Pesa. “I haven’t thanked you yet. Sit down and have some tea.”
“Okay.”
Elena made tea using the method she had learned from Reina’s book not long ago and served it to Pesa.
“These clothes are from the dragon royal family. The material is much better than human’s. It probably costs dozens of gold coins… I’ve seen their books. Dragon tailors are much better than human’s.”
“On the surface and in texture, it’s a small silk blue dress, but in fact, it’s a piece of clothing that is harder than ordinary armor.”
“Why would Teacher Bud give me such a precious thing?”
Elena looked up and thought.
She had originally just wanted to maintain a relationship with Teacher Bud, with different races and different standpoints, but as a fan and a writer. And based on the previous few situations, Teacher Bud should have also thought the same.
She was kind, calm, and intellectual…
“Maybe it was just a casual thing. Teacher Bud is very popular among the dragon race. These things are nothing to her,” Pesa began to make up a story, still a little clumsy.
“I see…”
Elena took a sip of tea. She crossed her legs, maintaining the dignity of a noble. The candlelight reflected her fair skin and beautiful girlish figure through the glass of the living room. She suddenly felt that she and this dress were a good match.
She should probably keep it until the end.
“By the way, protecting me, it wasn’t Teacher Bud who ordered you to do it, was it?”
“That…”
For a moment, Pesa didn’t know what to say.
“It was my own will. How could I have a relationship with the dragon race?”
“I thought you were her fan.”
“I… well, I also quite like Bud.”
Pesa lowered her head in embarrassment, quickly finished all the tea, and went to set up a teleportation magic circle for Elena, and then found an excuse to keep her distance, silently guarding her from the side.
But before she could set off, Elena asked:
“Can you help me invite Teacher Bud to be a guest? I want to see her now.”
“Miss Elena, with all due respect, you’ve changed too much from before,” Pesa finally couldn’t help it.
It was clear that this Elena didn’t know at all that the President of the God Slaying Society, Bud, and the Goddess of Light were the same person!
How could there be such a stupid human in the world?
“Is that so?” Elena wasn’t angry at all.
“Yes, what you should be considering now is how humanity should move forward, not how Teacher Bud is. She’s just a dragon. To put it bluntly, she might even be your enemy in the future.”
“We might still be enemies in the future…” Elena’s eyes widened, and for a moment, she felt a pang in her heart. Teacher Bud saved me, and in the future, I’ll have to oppose her?
But Pesa was right.
At least in the near future, in the future she was looking forward to, they would fight against the authority of the God Slaying Society, defeat the Shadow of God, and finally, perhaps even drive the other demons from this world. The President of the God Slaying Society was a dragon, and Teacher Bud was also a dragon.
What to do?
“Pesa, the reason I’m still thinking about her is because she’s my lifesaver. I can’t be so numb as to ignore her. This is also the reason why I want to see her.”
“So, do you think I know where she is? She’s a dragon, I’m a human,” Pesa couldn’t help but laugh.
“Damn it… when is the next new book release?”
“Three days later,” Pesa thought for a moment. It was now the middle of December.
“Then I should be able to see her at the meeting place before her… Pesa, can you help me send a letter to her? I want to invite her here.”
Pesa’s eyes flickered.
Actually, she didn’t have many opportunities to see the Goddess.
If she could take this opportunity to use Reina, it might not be a bad idea… This thought was quickly rejected by her. She would never expose the Goddess for her own selfish desires.
“What are you thinking?”
“I just want to thank her. If she comes to my mansion, I can explain things to her clearly and ask her clearly.”
“Then how do you want to thank her? Lady Elena, let’s first think about how to deal with the Shadow of God. And besides, don’t you mind that I’m your opponent, setting a trap for you?”
“Mmph…”
Elena brought her legs together, pouted, and placed her two small hands on her knees.
She just wanted to meet Bud. Why was it so difficult? But just as Pesa had said, she had no reason now.
After thinking for a long time, Elena stood up and took Pesa’s hand:
“No, I have to see her.”
“………”
“I’ve said it before, humans and dragons will never walk the same path. Even if you want to thank her, it’s just self-deception, unless you’re a hopeless believer like me.”
“Then let Bud betray the dragon race and join us!”
