My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 679: Interstellar Archangel
Today was marked as Xentia’s fateful day. Her path was accompanied by radiant presence. Before her, stood her Almighty Goddess Master, the one who compassionately bestowed her with a beautiful life, family warmth, and wisdom of a living being.
Under her Goddess Master’s tutelage and blessing, she would begin her transformation toward the immortal path. With Heaven’s assistance and divine blessings, she would undergo evolution through trials that would test her will, heart, and soul.
Her fiery energy wings, once symbols of annihilation, now gleamed with celestial light. Her true essence, the destructive power core was refined, no longer a force of a chaotic God-slaying killing machine.
The moment of her ascension was already within her sight and everyone went to a safe distance as she had to face it alone. She stood on the mountain peak, glancing toward her Goddess Master and family members once more.
The heavenly laws stood still in the Heavenly Realm’s sky. Soon, a brilliant divine light descended and enveloped her as she broke through past the 10th Rank boundary.
"My blessings are always with you." Elysia clasped her hands as she prayed for Xentia’s success.
Even with the help of the heavenly laws and He-Dao’s permission, Xentia would undergo a tribulation far different from Sylvia, Yuuki, Luna, and Vanessa because almost half of Xentia’s body was literally an android.
To go through the divine ascension, the heavenly evolution blessed by Heaven, Xentia had to go through the tribulation of light and lightning. It wouldn’t cause harm because He-Dao didn’t want to harm her people, but the unexpected might happen because Xentia still had to receive the Heavenly Realm’s thunder tribulation.
"Xen will be fine. She is well prepared." Elena patted Elysia’s shoulder, easing one’s worry with a gentle smile.
"Mmhm..." Elysia nodded in understanding.
It had been two days since the purge, but if she recalled the time she spent with Xentia yesterday, Xentia barely demanded something from her. Xentia only asked to be accompanied and guarded for the genetic mutation and quantum evolution in the private tube chamber. She didn’t even need to fortify Xentia’s foundation and spiritual roots.
It only took four hours, and as for the rest of the day, Xentia simply did everything to serve and please her, spending the rest of their day with Xentia treated her like a queen.
It was a new thing for her considering her girls mostly demanded some skinship and her attention.
’Come to think of it. Xentia should have been the first to ascend into divinity even without our help, but she gave in and became the fifth. Do you know the reason, Ely?’ Elena put her hand around Elysia’s waist, whispering via telepathy.
’Why?’ Elysia was intrigued because she still didn’t understand the reason.
’It’s because she wanted to lighten your burden even if only a little. She prepared herself to walk the immortal path without our help. She is so sensible and sweet, wishing to achieve immortality effectively so she can be with us forever.’ Elena was pleased with Xentia’s nature.
Broadly speaking, Xentia rarely demanded anything, but Xentia gave the best for their Goddess Master, AKA Elysia. Still, Xentia would always welcome more attention, and yes, Elysia should appreciate Xentia’s efforts and achievements so far.
"Mhmm..." Elysia nodded in understanding.
*Rumble!*
After the light descended and enveloped Xentia into a cocoon of light, thunder tribulation descended to mark the beginning of Xentia’s divine evolution from a mortal to an immortal under the blessing of the Heavenly Realm.
"You don’t need to worry. Even a golem can achieve godhood under my blessing, much less a partial doll." He-Dao was amused by Elysia’s unnecessary worry.
"I would appreciate it if you refer to my Xentia as a person." Elysia appreciated the help, but she didn’t like how He-Dao referred to her people.
"Well, why did she trigger thunder tribulation when I already granted her permission?" He-Dao wondered, but the said thunder tribulation had already subsided and gradually disappeared.
Thunder tribulation would only appear to prevent the unpermitted souls from ascending further, and the said person had to overcome Heaven’s torments and trials. It was either successfully ascended after withstanding it or perished into dust.
Those who failed to ascend but were lucky enough to survive the tribulation would be crippled for life. But considering he was there, and the previous Elysium girls ascended just fine, including the demoness, the current case was truly odd.
"Come to me!" Xentia overclocked her core to the maximum capacity as the thunder tribulation descended upon her for the umpteenth time.
She had resistance to electricity, but it was nothing compared to true lightning elementalists like Vanessa and Evelyn. Even so, with the divine lightning elements right around her, she desired to use them to refine her core.
*Rumble!*

A massive purple lightning bolt descended from the sky.
"Stop that. What are you trying to achieve? Do you want to kill her?" He-Dao frowned, feeling strange that the celestial spirits in the sky did not listen to him.
Hearing that, the massive purple lightning bolt halted mid-air and was swallowed into the cloud. The divine ascension light also dimmed and gradually subsided, releasing the light cocoon after giving the ascender a ’rebirth’.
"..." Xentia stared at the sky with questions. She was sure the massive divine lightning would descend, but it vanished, and the divine light also gradually dissipated.
Her evolution was complete when she was fully prepared to upgrade her core by utilizing the massive thunder tribulation. She even created hundreds of lightning-resistance artifacts.
"Congratulations on your ascension, Xen!" Elysia flew closer with a beaming expression, relieved to see that the evolved Xentia was fine, only slightly burned.
The rest of the Elysium members soon came to congratulate Xentia as well.
"Thank you, master, everyone." Xentia felt a little disappointed, but she shouldn’t have felt that way. It was a joyous occasion when she finally embarked on the path of immortality to pursue longevity with her master and the Elysium Pantheon.
With her newfound divinity, her master granted her the divine title Interstellar Archangel filled with hope. She overwrote her past as the God-slaying angel known as the Angel of Destruction as she carried out her master’s will. Her loyalty was absolute, and her devotion remained unwavering.
After cleansing and healing Xentia with divine healing magic, Elysia presented a full-body mirror to Xentia, showing a reflection of the newly ascended Goddess, the Interstellar Archangel. "Xen, take a look~"
Xentia looked at her reflection in the mirror. Just like her ascended sisters, divine ascension made her more divine and ethereal. Her flawless skin glowed faintly like moonlight reflecting off a serene sea. Her hair cascaded down like a wavy river of god sun, but the color shifted into silver starlight at hair tips.
Her eyes were mesmerizing pools of depth, glowing softly with hues of celestial gold and sapphire blue of violet tint. Framing her head was a crown of crystalline stars, each facet refracting the colors of nebulae. Her six magnificent wings unfurled with an otherworldly elegance, each energy feather an iridescent of shimmering golds, blues, purples, and silvers.
Draped in a gown crafted the light of stars, it flowed like liquid silk, shifting subtly, and adorned with constellations that seemed alive.
"You certainly don’t shine like a light bulb like my God Mode, but why do you look so dazzling?" Sylvia shielded her eyes as if she saw a bright halo behind Xentia’s head, even though it wasn’t actually there.
"Is that a compliment?" Xentia wasn’t sure what Sylvia was trying to say with such a comparison.
"Mm, Sylvi said you’re stunning. You’re in your God Mode now. If you still feel uncomfortable with the immortal qi flowing in your veins, please deactivate it for now." Elysia held Xentia’s hand to check Xentia’s condition once more just to make sure. After that, she took a step back.
"Phew..." Xentia took a deep breath and released the divine energy back into her core, stopping the heavenly power flow.
She revoked her archangel form and soon returned to her usual appearance as an angelic-like gold blond human beauty.
"Hmm, we have a new divine powerhouse in our family." Elena crossed her arms and nodded in satisfaction.
"Huh?" He-Dao wondered, not understanding why Elysia cultivated a bunch of mortal girls and even treated them like family. She even went as far as to assist them to achieve immortality.
Regarding what Elena had just said, he felt it had an implied meaning, but he didn’t bother with it.
"The heroes have already arrived at the second city, and will arrive at Nacrax City next month at the earliest." Shiina reminded Elysia because she couldn’t help it.
They simply let the rest get handled by the summoned heroes and the Glorious God, and she had to wait for next month...
"Thank you for the information, Shiina. We’ve taken note of it. They should arrive with the main team intact for the real battle at the sealed demon city." Elysia put her hands together.
Considering it would take place next month, and this month’s schedule was literally calm, she should focus on cultivating and strengthening herself, preparing herself for the Nirvana Great War that would break out in five months.
