Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination Chapter 648: Banquet of Schemes and Tricks

Chapter 648: Banquet of Schemes and Tricks

"No way, no way! I, I, I have to go to the bathroom!" Erina immediately fled to the next room and went straight into the bathroom.
"Well, it's called a purifying pill for another reason too. Erina-san's body impurities are forced out because her body resisted such substances." Elysia tried not to show her surprise and just gave a reasonable excuse. However, several pairs of eyes stared at her like predators, and she was a delicious little prey.
"Err, why are you all looking at me like that? You're scaring me." Elysia scratched her cheek slightly awkwardly.
"Do you have some other purifying pills, Elysia? If you please, the Minamoto Clan will buy at a handsome price like our previous agreement." Mitsuzuka asked with a bright expression.
"I have a few, but they are limited edition resources. If you really want to buy one, let's talk about this later." Elysia didn't mind selling one or two.
"Good, I will look forward to it." Mitsuzuka nodded and looked at Hokusai.
"..." Hokusai understood the meaning of that gaze. His clan couldn't involve themselves in the cooperative relationship between Elysia and the Minamoto Clan.
Mio was worried that Erina had not returned a few minutes later. Maybe, something happened in the bathroom. With that thought in mind, she went to the next room.
About forty minutes later, Erina and Mio returned and sat near Elysia. However, Erina was currently wrapping herself in winter clothes plus a jacket. She even wore the hood.
"Please give me your hands, Erina-san. You've been in the shower for too long, and you're obviously going to get cold." Elysia stretched out her hand.
"Sorry, I should have listened to your explanation to the end, Elysia-san. But, who would have thought that the effect would appear? I showered again and again until that black sweat disappeared completely." Erina shivered slightly and put both her hands on Elysia's.
"Well, what's happened has happened. Don't sweat it." Elysia replied with a tender smile and gave a small favor.
A stream of warmth and comfort ran through Erina's body. However, this situation gave her a feeling of relief, unlike the previous one. She felt very embarrassed to remember the incident.
Erina then looked at her hands. It was still as smooth as she remembered, with no wrinkles from taking too long to bathe anymore.
"How do you feel? You can now control your golden touch ability better now, but you still need to be careful." Elysia put her hands together.
"En! I'll keep that in mind. I've proven that, and yes, my golden touch has become much more friendly. Thank you very much, Elysia-san. I owe you another favor. Please tell me whenever you need me, I will be there for you." Erina gave a slight bow of thanks. After that, she put on her gloves again because it had become a daily habit to wear gloves.
"Hehe, you're welcome." Elysia nodded slightly.
"Wow, a healer saint is indeed a top-tier exclusive ability only for the chosen one. I'm afraid you will be fought over by many parties, Elysia. Everyone will fight over you." Victor muttered in admiration.
"It's okay, they won't dare to overdo it. Instead, you need to be extra careful, Erina-san. Everyone knows that you are quite close to me, and it might drag you into the trouble." Elysia shook her head and put her hand on Erina's arm.
"Mm, I'll be extra careful." Erina nodded like an obedient girl.
"Hmph, I wonder who would dare to offend us on purpose." Mitsuzuka folded his arms and snorted.
It was afternoon when they landed at the British military base in England. The event that followed was very much like a state visit, but unofficial where the visiting guests were some young elites from other countries. Erina's grandfather is an exception.
After boring events such as exchanging information with British higher-ups, Elysia and the others were finally free from the military base.
"There will be a banquet tonight. I would like you all to attend the event I am hosting to welcome you to our civilized country." Tyler spread his arms with a prince-charming smile in front of the group.
"Let me guess, the banquet will be held in your house, right?" Lukas tried to guess.
"Precisely, I invite all of you to my mansion. However, the banquet will be held tonight. For now, is there somewhere you would like to visit? Miss Elysia?" Tyler asked one of the girls at the very end of the group. This angelic beauty seemed to be trying not to stand out, but it was just a futile effort.
"Uhm, where are we now?" Elysia rubbed her arm. Earth God had sealed Sylvia, Vanessa, and her magic without permission, but she just let it be. However, she was feeling a bit cold now because she was only clad in a white dress.
"We're in Bristol." Tyler responded and was momentarily stunned.
Elysia looked cold, and there was a faint blush on her face. Once again, he could say that this girl was dangerous for a man's heart.
She looked vulnerable, weak, and meek... Not to mention with that alluring flushed face. Any man would awaken his instincts to protect this girl from possibly doing anything for her.
"I want to find the nearest clothing store then. It's quite cold here, and I didn't bring a jacket..." Elysia looked at Erina with an envious gaze. Sylvia was relatively immune to cold, and Vanessa was covered in fur, so she was the only one who suffered from cold in her group.
"Freezing?"
"Jacket, jacket?"
"Didn't anyone bring a jacket for Miss Elysia!?"
"Take off your coat and give it to Miss Elysia, you idiot."
"No, no, my jacket will do. This is a nice winter coat."
"Ha, don't think that will work. Your coat has your thick odor. It is an insult and offense if you think you want to mark Miss Elysia with your odor."
"What do you think I am, huh?"
The young elite immediately scrambled to help Elysia, especially the men. They offered to lend their jackets to Elysia. Still, the girl in question became overwhelmed and didn't know what to say as they surrounded her.
"What's the matter with all of you? You are like a virgin in heat. None of you are allowed to lend your jacket to Miss Elysia." Lydia pushed the boys away from Elysia. She then wrapped Elysia in her winter coat. "Here, I'm giving this to you. Ignore those boys' poor attempts to get your favor."
"Mm, thanks, err... Miss Lydia." Elysia checked this volunteer's status screen at a glance because she forgot this girl's name.
"Worry not, it's still a bit cold here since we're still in early Spring." Lydia replied with a gentle smile.
"Instead of a good impression, you actually make Miss Elysia see you as an annoying person in such an uncultured way. Virgin will still be a virgin." Lukas shook his head with a mocking smirk.
"Ahem. So, you're saying that you're a non-virgin playboy bastard who likes to change girlfriends every week? You and your country of freedom have a culture that scares me a bit, Lukas." Hokusai cleared his throat and closed one eye to counter the argument.
The other virgin boys gave an approving nod. They just didn't like Lukas's statement.
"What? What do you mean by that? Not just any girl can go out with me." Lukas couldn't avoid the accusation and just tried to avoid it. He didn't want his impression to be tarnished in Elysia's eyes.
"We have until evening for the banquet. So, my grandfather, and our elite team will return to Japan tomorrow morning. For now, would you like to take an afternoon stroll, Elysia-san?" Erina whispered next to Elysia.
"That sounds good. Let's go." Elysia nodded in agreement, and they walked away. She didn't want to listen to the debates of these young elite teams.
"..." Mitsuzuka simply folded his arms and followed her granddaughter from behind. Those people tried to build a good relationship with Elysia in many ways. At the same time, he got things smooth because of Erina.
The British elite team immediately followed Elysia behind, and the others followed suit. They returned to carry out their duties with Elysia as their sole objective. The argument just now died down as soon as Elysia walked away.
It was just a short walk until dusk had just arrived. Several cars then came to pick them up. Their destination was the Morgan Family's mansion.
"Ely, are we going out tonight?" Sylvia whispered close to Elysia's ear.
"Mm, I'll be leaving a message for Erina-san later. We need to start our mission as soon as possible." Elysia replied with a slight nod and took a little distance. Her ear tingled, and it became slightly reddened.
"But, you didn't sleep yesterday, right? You want to skip your bedtime two days straight? I'm afraid you'll collapse anytime soon, Ely. I'm sure your master already told you, but you're stubborn, right?" Sylvia expressed her concern.
"I, I, then I'll sleep when we arrive in the underworld. Our magic is sealed now, so I can't sleep in a vulnerable state." Elysia quickly came up with a plausible excuse. She was afraid that Sylvia would push her down to sleep on the bed, and their plan would be delayed again.
"Hmm-mm~ I'm glad to hear that. But, well, midnight is best for our departure. Those annoying bugs won't bother you anymore." Sylvia hummed happily. "Anyway, where are we going now?"
"Mr. Tyler, the British elite squad leader, wants everyone to attend the welcome banquet at his family's mansion. We can't possibly refuse, can we?" Elysia replied with a weak smile.
"Hm, okay, I'll kick those pests out if they dare to annoy us there. That banquet will obviously reek of schemes and dirty tricks." Sylvia looked ahead and folded her arms.
Erina and Mio only looked at each other. They had no idea what the two girls in the backseat were talking about, but Sylvia seemed to be irritated by something.
