Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination Chapter 788: The Assassin

Chapter 788: The Assassin

Near midnight, everyone seemed to be fast asleep at first glance. In fact, most of them were still awake in their light sleep.
"..." Elena was also still awake because Lynn's foresight kept her from sleeping. In that bedroom, only Elysia and Evelyn had really fallen asleep.
*Rustle* *Rustle*
Several frictions occurred against the house's barrier, resulting in a soft and barely audible sound.
A pitch-black hexagram demonic magic circle shrouded in black flames emerged on the ceiling. A pair of fiery heterochromia red and blue eyes appeared behind the smoldering black flames. A black-haired lady in tight clothes emerged from the magic circle.
She landed without making any sound. She didn't emit any aura, magic, or fluctuations that could possibly be detected because she had disguised them perfectly.
The demoness smirked when she discovered that everyone was defenseless. Still, her target was just a vulnerable girl who would give her a great fortune.
"Die for me, and you can go to hell. It won't hurt." The demoness whispered softly while pointing her long, sharp fingernails at her target.
However, the demoness flinched, but she suddenly couldn't move at all. Her body seemed to freeze in an awkward position where her defenseless target was already so close at her fingertips.
Several pairs of eyes seemed to shine in the dark of night, looking at the demoness like predators. The girls had been thoroughly awakened since the intruder used a dirty trick to bypass the protective barrier of this room.
The demoness suddenly became tense and frightened as the predators in the bedroom no longer concealed their auras. She finally realized how fucked up she was right now.
"We'll take care of her." Sylvia grabbed the demoness by the neck, but she glanced at the turquoise-haired Goddess next to Elysia.
Rhea opened her eyes slightly and released her shackles. She then snuggled closer to Elysia to find a comfortable position and closed her eyes again.
Sylvia bound the demoness with her dark magic and then dragged the intruder out of the room. Lynn, Lifa, and Yuuki also went out to take care of that demoness. While the others remained in the bedroom to protect Elysia in case of another intruder.
"Ngh!" The demoness screamed, but her voice was silenced. She knew what awaited her since she was caught in the enemy's domain, but she couldn't escape.
"Well then, what should we do with this woman?" Sylvia threw the demoness into an empty room.
"She has a king chess piece. So, she is a deity, and we will interrogate her before anything else." Lifa sealed the room with a soundproof barrier.
"Hm, this thing is a succubus?" Yuuki examined the demoness's tail, wings, and horns as if she was treating an object.
"Well, I thought so too. That's why I also silenced her and closed her eyes. We don't know if she has some aces up her sleeve." Sylvia shrugged her shoulders.
"Is she really a deity? She is so weak compared to that giant grasshopper. No wonder she chose to sneak attack in the middle of the night." Lynn felt a little doubtful because the intensity of the aura she could detect was far lower than the previous deity.
"However, she is so slick and cunning. That's the plus point of a high-class demon with low attack capability." Sylvia folded her arms.
"..." Lifa approached the demoness in the corner of the room and released Sylvia's dark magic seal around the captive's face.
"Kuh!" The demoness stared at the lady before her eyes and immediately used magic.
Unfortunately, it had absolutely no effect on Lifa. "Did you use charm magic to control me? It's powerful magic, and you'll get the desired result if your opponent is not us. Unfortunately, you chose the wrong opponent."
"Wha-, what are you going to do? Kill me? I guess that's what the loser will receive... Even so, I won't give out any information even if you torture me!" The demoness smirked, but she was genuinely terrified. These four people's presences and auras had intimidated her a lot.
"Hee~ You don't have to say anything because I'll figure it out myself." Lifa didn't mince words and put her hand on the demoness' head. She read some memories about some things because she wanted to know how this demoness bypassed Elena's protective barrier.
"I see, so you took advantage of your innate ability to bypass the parallel dimension and ignore the barrier's prevention. Looks like our protective barrier needs to be added something like dimension lock as well..." Lifa nodded in understanding.
After that, she looked at the demoness, who looked dazed for a moment before gently snatching the king piece.
The fifteen energy thread flows were scorched and absorbed into the king piece when it was just extracted from the demoness' spirit. Fifteen participants were eliminated in an instant.
"!?" The demoness freaked out when she realized that her king piece was no longer there. This scary green-haired lady took it from her so quickly?
"Well then, let's do something with her before we put her in Tic's prison." Lifa smiled gently and stood up. Sylvia, Lynn, and Yuuki looked down on the demoness.
"Hiee!!!" The demoness tried to break free from the dark magic shackles, but she was unsuccessful. The pressure was a real deal. She was desperate and scared but could do nothing other than accept her miserable fate.
At sunrise, Elysia woke up from her sleep. She propelled her body to sit down and rubbed her eyes gently.
"Good morning. Did you get a good night's sleep?" Rhea greeted from the side.
"Mm, I fell asleep... Did an intruder sneak in here last night?" Elysia checked around the room, and everyone seemed to sleep soundly.
"Yes, but she has been taken care of. She is currently in the warehouse, shackled and unable to do anything. When Tic finishes his meditation, she will be sent to prison." Rhea showed the second king piece to Elysia.
"Ah, thanks for your protection and care." Elysia breathed a sigh of relief. She was genuinely oblivious about what was going on around her last night.
"Mm, everyone looked after you last night." Rhea shook her head.
"I see. Then I'll make an amazing breakfast for everyone. Today will be a busy day." Elysia stood up, but Vanessa's arms were still around her waist.
Because of that, Vanessa and Evelyn were awakened by the movement and a significant change in a comfortable position.
"Ah, uh?" Vanessa was half conscious. She rubbed her face with her hand like a cat.
"I will help you. You will also come with us." Rhea grabbed Vanessa and Evelyn's arms. The two girls automatically followed the invitation even though they were still half conscious.
The fragrant and appetizing aroma of breakfast effectively woke everyone up. Several people came to the dining room and kitchen to help. However, Elysia was already done with the kitchen business because she had three reliable assistants.
'Ely, would you like to see the demoness who wanted to assassinate you last night?' Elena asked in wonder.
'Hmm, I heard she is a deity, a succubus queen?' Elysia glanced towards the back room. That place is currently being sealed by Lifa's barrier.
'Fufu, the sexy yet seductive demoness that likes to lure her prey with charm before absorbing the essence of other living beings' life to dry.' Elena chuckled as if it was a joke.
'I'm not sure she is more dangerous, attractive, and seductive than you, Sister Elena. It will save us trouble if we just send her to Xero's prison. With this, we have captured two naughty deities.' Elysia shrugged her shoulders and went to the second floor. Rhea immediately followed her like a bodyguard.
'Thanks for your compliment~ Fwaah, I'm sleepy now.' Elena yawned inside the Elysian Realm. She didn't get enough rest last night.
'It's fine if you want to sleep. I'll wake you up when we get into action on the big fish hunt.' Elysia gave a kind suggestion. She knew Elena couldn't sleep well after protecting her half the night.
'Okay, I've set the alarm here. If I still haven't woken up, please wake me with a good morning kiss! Sleep tight.' Elena hugged Elysia's spirit and snuggled closer.
'...' Elysia smiled in amusement and knocked on Xero's door.
*Knock* *Knock*
There was a knock on the door, but there was no response after waiting a few seconds. Elysia knocked on the door again, and the door suddenly opened.
"What do you want?" Xero opened his eyes from the middle of the room. He was still in a meditative position within the rune circle formation.
"It's time for breakfast. Can you come down to the dining room and join us? Your body needs nutrition too, right?" Elysia invites Xero to have breakfast together.
"I guess now is the time. Very well, I'll be down after tidying up my things. You can go first." Xero looked at the clock and sighed.
"How about your recovery meditation? Did you get a significant boost from that pure dark energy orb?" Elysia looked around the room. It was messy and dark, like a demon summoning experiment room.
"That's quite disappointing, I must say. The black crystals I got in the underworld are still far more useful than that chess piece. It's completely incomparable to my divine treasures, either. However, at least I can grasp a new curse law more deeply." Xero replied while stuffing all his belongings into his domain of darkness.
"Oh, okay. We'll be waiting for you in the dining room." Elysia waved her hand and left the room. She presumed Xero just didn't know how to utilize that pure energy, or it was just her who could make use of it.
"..." Xero glanced at Rhea briefly before looking up. Today, he would settle all matters as stipulated before he could go to the Heaven Realm to join the grand party. The fun and challenging battles would start from there.
