Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination Chapter 207: Hidden Writing

Chapter 207: Hidden Writing

It was sudden and shocking, but Elysia was already doing what she wanted to do. She touched the blank sheet with a little water element on her index finger, and a little part of the paper became wet.
Alexander frantically got up from his chair and seemed about to take the ancient book from Elysia's hand. However, his movements stopped for a moment his hand was about to grab the old grimoire.
Slowly, the wet blank page revealed sentence by sentence and then into paragraphs until finally composing complete writing on the page.
Not only did Alexander gape in astonishment, but the girls too, the girl who did that was included. Elysia thought that the implied symbol in the last sentence had a hidden meaning. It was proven true just as she and Elena had expected.
"Wh-what? Is this a continuation of the Goddess's guidance? Incredible... Elysia, give me that ancient book. I need to check a few things." Alexander breathed a sigh of relief with renewed vigor. This granddaughter knows what she's doing.
It was not an act of harming the paper with water, but bringing out the paper's hidden writing with water!
"Here, Grandpa." Elysia handed over the old grimoire with care like a kind and obedient granddaughter.
Alexander received the ancient book and then glanced at the writing that had just appeared. After he finished reading the page, he gathered a bit of water with his magic on the tip of his finger. Then, he pasted it onto the blank page just like what Elysia did just a moment ago.
Guesses and expectations culminated in realization, the writing on the blank page slowly appeared. With a broad smile and a passionate spirit, Alexander did the same over the next few pages just to be sure.
The results were satisfactory as expected. The hidden words would appear for a while if the blank paper was given a little water. If a lot of it would be harmful to the paper, so a little was sufficient.
"Hahaha! That's marvelous. Elysia, what made you realize that?" Alexander asked the girl who was happy with him.
"Grandpa, look at the end of the sentence before the blank paper. There is a hidden and faint symbol. If you look carefully, it means water magic. The same symbol in the water element magic circle." Elysia described something she just realized.
After knowing that, Alexander turned the pages and returned to the last page that had the writing. Sure enough, the thing in question was there, and he only realized what it meant after decades...
Even though he once realized that the ancient writing symbol was similar to the water element symbol, that did not mean he would be desperate to wet the paper.
"What you said is true. Then, the Goddess's guidance has a continuation. If so, is the other ancient book the same?" Alexander muttered while remembering the ancient book he had just skimmed through. The grimoire also had many blank sheets.
"Alright! You girls can spend your time playing or whatever. Let this old man parse the ancient books to know more about our Goddess's complete guidance." Alexander made a quick decision, then shooed off the girls in a gentle tone. He wanted to find out more about this new discovery as soon as possible.
"Umm... Grandpa, can I come with you to research the ancient book? There is another one, right? Maybe I can help with a few things. You will not leave the task directly to your secret research team, are you?" Elysia pleaded with a look full of hope. She also wanted to see the continuation of Nell's notebook.
"I want to come too. I will behave properly and will not disturb you, I promise." Ella volunteered herself too, though she looked worried and nervous a moment ago.
"Me too. Let me come too, to know the full content of it." Evelyn also wanted to be part of it. She put on pleading gaze like the other two girls.
"Meow." Vanessa followed along, but only people who knew her language could know that she wanted to come too.
"Well, this should not be postponed any longer. Elysia, you will help me. Ella, Evelyn, you can come too, but be a good girl. Let's go into my research room." After saying that, Alexander walked towards a certain room... The one he entered a while ago.
He waved his hand down once, then the several barriers protecting the room disappeared. There was a door that was still closed.
Three girls and a cat immediately followed the Pope to approach the door. Then, they entered the room together before the barriers were put back.
Inside the room looked like an advanced alchemy room filled with various magic tools of whatever function. However, the girls did not dare express their curiosity to touch something without knowing what they were touching.
They all just walked over to Pope's research desk that had a lot of paperwork on it. Many handwritten notes were possibly research notes from the ancient book. Without further ado, Alexander put all the papers on his research table into a drawer. Then, they got to work.
For the next several hours, Alexander and Elysia deciphered the writing in the ancient language and then translated it into their vernacular. The two of them did that not to the ancient book with 'final' written on the cover but to the other grimoire as well... The one Alexander just got this afternoon.
Meanwhile, Ella, Evelyn, and Vanessa only listened to Pope and Elysia's group discussions. However, Ella and Evelyn also helped as much as possible to contribute, such as taking notes on Pope and Elysia's discussions.
A copy of the ancient book was successfully translated into a language that could be easily understood. It was the full content of it.
Time quickly passed, and it was already late at night. After that, the girls came out of the Pope's private room to return to the house room. Pope shooed them after the work was finished. It was time for the girls to sleep, and he would take care of the rest.
"Nee, Ely, what were you thinking about earlier?" Evelyn asked after the girls walked into Ella's room. They were in their pajamas and ready to go to bed.
"Hmm, a bit complicated and surprising. I didn't expect something called cursed beings to be sealed and they will be free from their shackles one day." Elysia answered with kindness and a smile. She had been less focused on that lost history.
At that time, she was just playing with Vanessa using a feather stick. The cat was just tickled, and the cat would respond cutely.
"Huff... I can only hope that humanity can survive and fight off that cursed creature..." Evelyn sighed softly and then sat down beside her best friend on the sofa.
"Eve, please don't use negative lines. We'll think wiser, remember? That's one of the reasons grandfather told us this early." Ella suggested that with a complex expression. If it was said like that, she would be a little worried too.
"Well, actually, you shouldn't worry too much. It might take place far in the future. Maybe, at that time, we were already living in heaven. Besides, didn't the Goddess of Blessings leave her guidance? It is being implemented by mankind as soon as possible. Yes, it might be a bit harsh to say ... But at least our Human Race will be fine, or much better than other races that I don't know much about them." Elysia gently uttered as she looked at the two girls who were also staring at her.
"En, that might be true. The future generations who will fight it out and we as the predecessor generation can only make preparations for them. And again, the implementation will also take a long time for it to complete." Ella nodded in understanding.
"Well, if it's like that, we can only do our best. We are still young girls, it can happen in our generation." Evelyn expressed her opinion. It also received nods from Elysia and Ella.
"Em, it's past midnight... We better go to bed, Ely, Eve. Tomorrow we have a morning class, right?" Ella glanced at the clock and suggested her friends. Even though it was no longer within the beauty sleep regime, at least sleep was necessary.
"Okay. Ely, let's go to bed. Vann must be sleepy too." Evelyn tugged at her best friend's sleeve a little.
"Un. Good night, Vann. Have a lovely dream." Elysia petted the white cat once again.
"Meoww." Vanessa meowed in answer. However, she delivered a good night reply through her mind, and it passed to her master.
Elysia smiled lightly at Vanessa then got off the sofa with Evelyn and headed for the bed. What did she expect? She was once again asked to sleep in the middle directly and indirectly.
Even so, this time would be different like the night before. Because Elysia reminded the use of the blanket as well as its duties. It was all done to avoid waking up in the morning to find herself flanked on both sides.
