Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination Chapter 681: Blood Contract

Chapter 681: Blood Contract

Elysia's group joined the Ariatha Kingdom's troops from the northern region to the capital city. No one used the Gravy Ark, only cavalry and carriages on that trip.
Elysia's group was in Evelyn's royal carriage pulled by six burly horses in the middle of the entourage. They took a breath of fresh air while being served warm tea.
"Hm, I understand. Ella also tried her best in the holy city. The other students are struggling to help in their respective hometowns." Elysia nodded in understanding. She had just listened to Evelyn's story about the students who were also fighting in the defensive forces stationed around the sealed areas of the Human Continent.
"En, that's true. However, not all of them enter the battlefield. Most of them are in logistics, medical, or other support roles. If it weren't for my divine mage battlesuit, Evysias, I would definitely only be in charge of the miscellaneous section." Evelyn felt a little nervous, but she remained confident nonetheless.
"Hmm, I wonder what happened to those boys. You gave them our first battlesuit prototype, right?" Elena covered her mouth as she almost chuckled.
"Hehe..." Elysia just chuckled. Even though the first prototypes in question were called failed products, she already improved them to the point that they could, at least, be used in battle.
"Oh, you're still at Apprentice-level, and you're a Princess. Your father sent you to the most dangerous sealed area with just two Saint-level protectors, Eve? Isn't that cruel?" Sylvia rested her cheek against her hand.
"It's not like that, Sylvi. Neither of us knows what's buried in the sealed areas. There are only a bunch of accursed monsters below Spirit-level, but there are also some really deadly ones. I just had no luck this time, I guess? Ehehe..." Evelyn put her hands together and replied with a small laugh.
"But thank goodness you're okay. Otherwise, I don't know what Ely would have done. Her heart is so kind and gentle. I'm not sure she would take a tragedy for granted. Please be careful next time, Eve." After saying that, Sylvia looked out the window with a strange glint in her eyes. "Or sorcery might come in handy."
"???" Elysia could hear Sylvia's words, but she didn't know their meaning.
"Eve, how did that young female mage know that your divine mage battlesuit was a gift from my discipline Ely? She even purposely said it all to the public eye. Can you do anything about that information? They are from your kingdom's Mage Association, right?" Elena brought up the most essential topic for Elysia's sake. She already knew everything, and it was pretty worrying for her.
"I also don't know why Willie come to know about it. She also said mean things to me in front of everyone. However, I suspect that she accidentally overheard my conversation with my brother and Freya before we departed from the capital city." Evelyn patted her chin as she recalled what happened a few days ago.
"Freya, what do you think? Also, can you complete the Goddess of Light's order?" Evelyn made a request to the nearby lady mage.
"Affirmative, all matters regarding your divine mage battlesuit have been kept as confidential information. Then, regarding Willie Khan, I will immediately confirm it." Freya nodded in understanding.
"Okay, you will take care of all that. It's late afternoon. Will this entourage take a break in the middle of the trip?" Elena folded her hands on her lap.
Yes, we will camp for the night in a safe place. After we descend this mountain, we will arrive at a gray meadow. We will camp there. Sorry to ask this, but will you also join us, o the Goddess of Light, Sea God?" Freya put her hand to her chest and glanced at the two divine beings.
"Hm, we still need to forge some anti-curse staff. Yes, we'll trouble you with that." Elena glanced at Elysia and replied with a subtle nod.
"Nobody was bothered. Actually, we're very honoured." Freya waved her hand and gave a slight bow of respect. She was delighted to know the divine beings would be among them tonight.
Yuuki's fox ears twisted, and her seven tails swayed slightly. She opened her yellow eyes slightly and looked around in a daze.
It was as if she had just dreamed that Elysia was back and giving her a warm, comforting hug. However, the surprising thing was that she could still feel that warmth even though she was awake.
"Good afternoon. Did you have a sweet dream, Yuuki?" Elysia greeted the little white fox on her lap with gentle words.
"Uh-huh?" Yuuki flinched slightly and immediately looked up. She could see that the person she most wanted to meet was there, looking at her with a gentle gaze.
Yuuki needed a few seconds before she came out of her reverie. She rubbed her eyes to confirm what she saw, but it remained the same.
"Master Elysia, you're really back!? I thought it was my hallucination and just a dream, but is it genuine?" Yuuki instantly transformed into her beastkin form. She pounced on Elysia in her longing reflex and wrapped her arms around Elysia's neck.
"Kyah!" Elysia lost her balance, but luckily, a seat back kept her from falling backwards.
"Oh my..." Almost everyone in the carriage didn't expect that. They covered her mouth reflexively.
*Sniff* *Sniff*
"Hmm-mm~ This is Master Elysia's signature fragrance, and this aura is exactly the same..." Yuuki sniffed Elysia's neck and continued down. Then, she looked closely at Elysia's face.
"Yu, Yuuki... Please don't sniff me. U-uhm, what's wrong?" Elysia blushed to see Yuuki sitting astride on her lap and then stared with a deep gaze.
*Lick*
Yuuki didn't respond with words, but she licked Elysia's cheek instead. She then nodded with a beaming smile on her face. "Hm-mm~ This is Master Elysia's taste. You really are genuine and not an illusion. I've confirmed it. Welcome back, Master Elysia!"
"Oh my, oh my... What do we have here?" Elena put her hand to her cheek and just watched from the side. Yet, her lips curved into a mysterious smile.
"Wha, wa-wawa..." Evelyn covered her mouth with her palms. She blushed at Yuuki's mischief towards Elysia.
"Hmm, truly a beastkin's instinct to confirm something. There's no surprise." Oceanid averted his gaze and stared out the window.
"Wow, you often mock me with an evil devil and naughty Sylvi. Look at you now, pervy Yuuki. Free Ely now! You're causing trouble for Ely." Sylvia got up from her seat and tried to pull Yuuki away from Elysia.
"N-no! I'm not dressed right now. Everyone will see me if you pull me away from Master Elysia!" Yuuki realized something and hugged Elysia tightly. She only relied on her seven fluffy fox tails to cover her nakedness at this time.
Elysia took a breath and gave a hand wave to signal everything was fine. Because of that, Sylvia stopped pulling Yuuki's shoulders.
"Yu-Yuuki, are you okay? Sorry for making you worry. However, that's a unique way for you to make sure of something." Elysia held Yuuki's cheek and gave him a head pat. She was embarrassed and afraid that Yuuki would lick her cheek again.
"Hmm, I don't usually do that. However, I was afraid that you were just an illusion or hallucination coming from someone. However, you turned out to be Master Elysia, the real one. Mm! I really miss you. It's only been two weeks, but it's already felt like two years." Yuuki put her head on Elysia's shoulder.
"..." Elysia didn't know what to say. She then glanced to Elena for help.
Elena nodded in understanding, very much in Elysia's appreciation. However, Elena's following action was simply swinging her finger and placing some divine light to cover Yuuki's body.
"..." That was not the help Elysia expected, but it was very much welcomed for Yuuki's well-being.
"Uhm, Yuuki, you better get dressed first. I'll help- auu..." Elysia whimpered a little as she felt a slight stinging pain in her neck.
"Yu-Yuuki!? What are you doing?" Elysia asked in surprise, but her intonation was still soft.
Yuuki nipped Elysia's neck and licked the wound. She then cleaned Elysia's blood with her tongue.
"I won't let you go now, Master Elysia. I just finished a one-sided blood contract with you. This way, I'll know where you are and won't lose to Vanessa, hehe, ehehe..." Yuuki whispered softly near Elysia's ear. She ended her sentence with a strange chuckle.
Elysia trembled a little because she couldn't stand someone whispering near her ear. And again, Yuuki's chuckle laughed a bit creepy.
"One-sided blood contract? I didn't know you were already a naughty little fox, Yuuki. Do you know what you are doing?" Elena frowned and held Elysia's wrist to check the whole situation.
"Of course, I am a servant beastkin. I don't want to wait any longer. Please forgive my impudence, Master Elysia. My blood contract only binds me to you. You have already marked me as yours with your blood. My beastkin's blood contract is not inferior to beast's spirit contract." Yuuki heaved a sigh of relief and closed his eyes. She could feel a warmth in her chest, and a bond was created.
"Yuuki, isn't that a bit meanie? You don't want to hear my opinion or ask my permission. What good is a one-sided blood contract for you?" Elysia asked after examining a blood-red mark on her middle dantian. It was forced into jostling with Vanessa's mark.
"Please forgive me. My blood contract won't harm anyone. The theory is like a beast's spirit contract, but the intermediary that binds me is my blood, not spirit. Can you feel me inside you? Yeah, around here." Yuuki put her hand on Elysia's middle dantian.
Freya looked surprised, and Vanessa looked dissatisfied. Evelyn looked confused, and Sylvia looked a little annoyed.
"Okay, I get it. I just dressed you in a magical outfit. Now, sit there and accept your punishment. I won't let any naughty girl do whatever she wants." Elena pointed to an empty space between the seats in the carriage. Yuuki then immediately sat there in the seiza position obediently.
Elena gestured for everyone to be quiet because she would take care of this. "Yuuki, I've checked your blood contract on my Ely. It is indeed similar to Vann's spirit contract. However, why did you do that? Do you want to take advantage of Ely for any reason?"
"I just don't want to be left behind. I know what I did was very hasty, presumptuous, and might offend you and Master Elysia. However, please forgive me and allow me to become Master Elysia's servant. Please accept me and don't revoke my blood contract!" Yuuki bent down to plead.
Because the carriage wasn't that wide, she banged her head on Elysia's lap instead.
