My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 613: Appointment Mistake

"..." He-Dao nestled his chin on his intertwined fingers, staring at the Nirvana Air Time with a complicated gaze. It was a crystal orb recorder, the one that Elysia used to record the situation in the Corrupted Nirvana Realm, including Lady Nirvana’s last words, albeit it was only from her soul remnant.

Even though he had gathered his courage for a whole week, he still did not dare to open it. He still couldn’t bear to listen to her last words.

He knew more than anyone else that he had to hear it and put his full focus on the upcoming Nirvana Great War. Still, just when he thought that he had gathered his resolve, his entire arm was petrified when he was about to open the recording.

"How pathetic..." He-Dao sighed, mocking himself. It was already almost time for Elysia’s weekly class, and sadly, he had yet to make any progress in his internal struggle. It was as if he was still unable to move on from the past.

Therefore, he always challenged the abyssal demon replicas at the Abyssal Space Trial at least four times every day to blow off some steam. He treated it as an escape by fighting intensely against the archenemy he had to slay to avenge her death. Even so, he was still unable to reconcile with himself.

Moreover, with more than two dozen trials against the Nirvana Abyssal Demon Sovereign’s replica, he still couldn’t gain any effective method to gain a flawless upper hand. He might have defeated that monster in the simulation, but it was still a stalemate because it took too long to slay it which would obviously have caused the massive destruction and casualties during the process if it wasn’t the simulation. He at least had to slay the replica in less than a minute alone!

*Knock* *Knock*

"My lord, it’s about the time for weekly class to start. Lady Elysia has already arrived at the Training Hall Space." Yuna knocked on her lord’s study room as she was concerned because her lord had yet to appear at the training hall.

"Alright. I’ll be there." He-Dao put the crystal ball in his personal storage space and then left the room.

"My lord, are you alright? Would it be possible for you to share your trouble with me?" Yuna felt worried because she could see her lord was troubled by something.

The preparation for the upcoming Nirvana Great War was going smoothly. They received all the assistance from the Supreme Goddess of Mysterious Origin and the Elysium Pantheon who were experienced in dealing with the accursed creatures. So, she suspected that there was an external factor that was disturbing her lord’s mind.

"Everything is alright. I just still can’t reconcile with myself, my heart demon. Sorry to cause you to worry. I’ll get around this on my own. Anyway, how is the production progress of the anti-curse items?" He-Dao shook his head and shifted the topic as he didn’t want to talk about it.

"Alright. Please do tell me if there are any problems, and I will surely be there for you. As for the overall preparation, as of this morning, we are already 40% ready to arm the entire army." Yuna checked the latest report and showed it to her lord.

There were more than thirty anti-curse items mass-produced, but everything was still waiting for Elysia and the Elysium Pantheon to do the quality check.

"Did Elysia give us some new blueprints?" He-Dao recalled about it, but he was sure the number was not that many before.

"Yes, Elysium Pantheon shared their new blueprints last week..." Yuna felt it was rather weird.

The mentioned blueprints were given by Elysia to He-Dao directly, and he passed those blueprints to the celestial factory personally, but he had already forgotten the exact number. So, there was clearly something bothering her lord’s mind since last week.

"Alright. We need to provide the entire set to all the students today so they can familiarize themselves with the anti-curse items. Elysia needs to do her quality check soon as well." He-Dao nodded in understanding. He then flew out of the palace and went to the training hall right away.

Yuna arranged the matters and followed closely behind.

A few moments later, dozens of heavenly servants came to the training ground, carrying dozens of supply crates, each containing three dozen various anti-curse items.

"I see~ so in your territory there is an immortal monster, a very dangerous one that threatens everyone’s safety and even your sovereignty. We’ll try to contact him later. I hope this immortal monster can join my monster army to lessen your worry, Lord Celestial Echo Sovereign." Elysia nodded in understanding with great appreciation.

"Err... why do you want to capture that monster, my lady? This one is almost mindless and will attack anyone without exception." Celestial Echo Sovereign was taken aback. He thought the Supreme Goddess was interested in the exotic, powerful immortal beasts, but she apparently was also fond of collecting calamity monsters!

"Then that makes it imperative that we should capture, I mean invite him sooner than later. Such a dangerous entity has a rightful place in my new monster world. We can fix him." Elysia put her hands together.

In the last few minutes, she had a brief chat with her students, namely the high-rank Gods and Goddesses, about the super dangerous immortal beasts in the Divine World.

"Oh dear me, so you are still at it. If you truly desire some immortal beast pets, just mention the names, and I’ll get them all for you later." He-Dao arrived at the training ground gallantly, but for some reason, he felt displeased because Elysia asked for help from the other Gods.

"Really? Then you promised me, alright?" Elysia beamed with joy.

"Alright." He-Dao faintly smiled and nodded.

"..." The nearby Gods and Goddesses sweated slightly. If the Lord of Heaven would step in to capture all the names they previously mentioned, then it would mean, they literally sold the said immortal beasts which would cause these immortal beasts to become pets!

However, to become the pet of the Supreme Goddess wasn’t so bad, so it would still be a win.

"Alright, we should start the class now." Elysia put her hands together as she checked the students’ attendance.

No one was absent as usual. Thus, she proceeded to her lite-version absolute domain and stood by the entrance portal. "I hope you haven’t been slacking off in the past week. I assumed you’ve gotten used to the Training Hall Space and the Abyssal Space Trial. I’ll teach you some interesting techniques and methods to counter the cursed creatures today. Be sure to pay attention to my lesson, students~"

The students responded positively as they were so eager to receive the new lesson after a full week of stalemate. Even the arrogant old monsters who were usually so aloof before the others had to put down their ego for the divine teacher.

As Elysia proceeded with her weekly class attended by dozens of prominent high-rank Gods and Immortals affiliated with the Heavenly Palace, the Glorious God, and his eight comrades embarked on a journey to visit the highest layer of Heaven in the Divine World, the Heavenly Realm.

Truthfully, he felt a bit troubled and hesitant because he was dealing with the most powerful faction that controlled not only the Divine World but also the mortal realms.

However, his affairs only involved the Sacred Sakura Goddess, the Elysium Pantheon of Sacred Sakura, the Heavenly Palace’s affiliate, not the Heavenly Palace itself. Regardless of anything, it was always good to befriend the strong, and if possible, his third-rate faction might receive the benefits just by building a good relationship. Moreover, he might get to know some first-rate factions other than Sacred Sakura during this visit!

That was what he and his comrades had in mind until their visit entry was denied by the Heavenly Palace’s patrolling servant. They couldn’t even approach the Heavenly Palace’s territory outermost area.

"How strange... why are many heavenly servants patrolling outside the Heavenly Palace?"

"Are they holding a grand event or something?"

"Yeah, there are auras from different realms."

"Didn’t we just run into the Primordial Water Dragon’s palanquin a few hours ago?"

"Yeah, there must be a big event going on at the Heavenly Palace. Sacred Sakura Goddess said we need to meet her at the Heavenly Palace, but she never mentioned the time." Rhykdohr rubbed his beard.

"Then, why didn’t you ask the exact time?"

"I forgot. The Martial Arts Competition occupied most of my attention." Rhykdohr shrugged his shoulders.

"Oh, you truly, sigh... should we wait for her or something?"

"Have we arrived too early? She should have told us."

The Glorious Council of Gods discussed as if they were facing a difficult situation. Rhykdohr forgot to ask the exact time, and that caused the other eight Gods to sigh.

"Wait, please forgive me for interrupting your discussion, but did I hear you mention the Sacred Sakura Goddess?" The nearby heavenly servant immediately flew back.

She had just denied the Glorious Council of Gods’ visit because no outsider was allowed to disturb the weekly divine class, but she couldn’t overlook it because these nine Gods suddenly brought up the Sacred Sakura Goddess.

"Hum, she is the one who invited us to meet her at the Heavenly Palace. However, if she is currently occupied by the ongoing event, and we arrive too early due to a mistake in the appointment time, we’ll wait until she contacts us." Rhykdohr raised his palm as he was absolutely aware of the procedure and the situation.

"Hmm... may I know what is your relationship with the Sacred Sakura Goddess?" The heavenly servant was not too sure, but she had to receive the guests first and confirm the truth later.

Although she couldn’t understand it, it involved the Supreme Goddess of Mysterious Origin, and she shouldn’t messed up anything.

"We encountered her in the mortal realm by chance and somehow became friends. We made an appointment to meet each other. She asked us to meet her at the Heavenly Palace." Rhykdohr answered casually.

"!!!" The heavenly servant gasped in shock. It was circulating among the servants as gossip saying that the Lord of Heaven was close to the Sacred Sakura Goddess, and probably the Lord of Heaven tried to pursue Sacred Sakura Goddess romantically!

However, Sacred Sakura Goddess suddenly invited some random guys from a third-rate faction without any prior notice. She truly couldn’t understand what kind of situation required the Supreme Goddess to invite these guys, but she had to appear composed and professional in handling this matter.

She just hoped it wasn’t love at first sight or something like a blind date meeting because the Lord of Heaven would be displeased!

Regardless, she immediately changed her attitude to that of politeness before the honorable high-rank Gods. She guided the guests to the Heavenly Palace’s island in the sky and brought the guests to the outermost waiting room.

After serving tea to the guests, she excused herself as she had to notify the matter. After leaving the room, she hurriedly left and reported the matter to her senior. The information was then passed on to the chief heavenly servant and then delivered to the heavenly agent. Only then could it reach the Lord of Heaven and the Supreme Goddess.

Rhykdohr had no idea what he had just sparked, but he finally understood why the Sacred Sakura Goddess asked him to mention her name to the heavenly servant. She was well-known and respected, but strangely enough, he couldn’t find any information about the Sacred Sakura in the Divine World. It was as if Sacred Sakura was newly created and suddenly rose in power as the first-rate faction.
