Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 930 - 931: Emerging Words

"My Goddess, can you please stop doing such scary things every time? Do you know how worried I was? And this appearance..." Zuoben or the disguised Tania sighed helplessly as she gazed at the ordinary-looking, frail, black-haired girl in front of her.

If they hadn’t discovered the female corpse in the alley in time, they probably wouldn’t have guessed that the Goddess had transformed into such a weak girl. Let alone bring her back to the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

Taking a deep breath, Tania gently patted the frail girl’s shoulder:

"Goddess, there’s no one else around now, you don’t need to disguise yourself anymore."

"..."

Hearing this, the frail girl blinked. Although she didn’t give any reply, she clearly understood Tania’s meaning. From within her delicate, small body, wisps of pale light gradually overflowed. Enveloped by this light, the frail girl’s appearance, physique, and aura underwent earth-shattering changes.

The messy, long black hair transformed into smooth, short silver-white hair with a hint of bewitching dark red highlights.

The ordinary face suddenly turned into an extremely beautiful work of art. Long eyelashes fluttered slightly, flawless white skin emitted a faint rosy glow, thin lips like tender rose petals, like a shining pearl or a glowing jade.

Even though she was still wearing tattered robes, the girl’s beauty could no longer be concealed.

Just like that, when the pale light dissipated, a woman with a slender figure and angelic face, completely different from the frail girl, instantly appeared before Tania.

"Goddess..." Looking at the heavenly beauty in front of her, Tania’s eyes couldn’t help but fill with emotion.

No matter how many times she saw it, she couldn’t help but exclaim.

The Goddess’s ability was truly too marvelous.

Appearance, figure, aura, even the power system within her body, completely transformed into another existence, a completely different existence. If she hadn’t known the Goddess’s identity beforehand, Tania would never have been able to connect that frail girl just now with her noble Goddess.

Even the elves’ disguise artifact Veil of Deception probably couldn’t achieve such a perfect disguise.

Although she inherited a portion of the Goddess’s power and gained this transformation ability, it was ultimately lacking.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have needed to constantly cling to that woman

"I still have a lot to improve on." After sighing for a moment, Tania turned her gaze to the little white cat in the white-haired girl’s arms.

"Hm? A spiky-tailed cat? Picked up from outside?"

"Mm." The white-haired girl nodded, responding for the first time. Gentle and delicate, like a light drizzle.

"Is that so? How about you give it to me, I’ll have the maids take care of it." Tania suggested.

The reason Tania made this suggestion was simple. The little white cat had indeed been quietly staying in the white-haired girl’s arms before, but after the Goddess removed her disguise and returned to her original appearance, sensing the unsettling aura, the kitten began to struggle frantically, constantly biting and clawing at the white-haired girl’s hands.

Although the kitten’s attacks were negligible and had no effect, Tania still couldn’t stand the beast being rude to her revered Goddess.

However, as soon as Tania spoke, the white-haired girl hugged the cat and suddenly retreated two steps, staring at Tania with vigilance.

"Uh... You, you don’t really want to keep this cat, right?" Tania asked, somewhat exasperated.

The white-haired girl still didn’t answer, but her action of tightly hugging the little white cat had already explained everything.

Seeing this, Tania could only sigh in resignation and rub her temples, looking utterly exhausted.

"Forget it, you’ve already brought back quite a few anyway. If you want to keep it, then keep it."

"..."

Seeing that Tania had no intention of snatching the kitten from her hands, the white-haired girl also dropped her vigilant posture and continued to calmly stroke the little white cat in her hands, even though the kitten had already been scared stiff by her aura.

"Just don’t know how long it can be kept this time..." Shaking her head, Tania complained with a somewhat resentful tone:

"Sigh, running out just to find a pet? Goddess, if you want to keep a pet in the future, just tell me. There’s no need to go out specifically and make yourself like this."

However, just as Tania was trying to convey some important information, the white-haired girl unexpectedly shook her head, denying Tania’s guess, and somewhat stiffly opened her mouth,

"Companion..."

"Huh? What did you say?"

Hearing this word, Tania was also stunned and looked at the white-haired girl in surprise. "Find... companion..."

"You said? Companion? You went out this time to find a companion?"

"Mm." While rubbing the kitten’s head, the white-haired girl nodded somewhat woodenly, "Companion, I like."

Seeing this, Tania’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Although the white-haired girl in front of her looked a bit dazed, like a cute doll without consciousness, Tania was well aware of what a terrifying existence she was.

There was perhaps only one person in this world who could be regarded as her companion.

Come to think of it, when the captain of the guard team reported to me earlier, he seemed to have mentioned an elven girl. The Goddess was brought to the Order Supervision Bureau by that elven girl. An ordinary person, the Goddess definitely wouldn’t go with her.

Moreover, there were few elves in the Holy Capital Vinati recently. Tania had seen the list of elven embassy members on the diplomatic roster a week ago, but there was no such white-haired elf among them. In this light, the true identity of the white-haired elf was self-evident.

"So that’s how it is, that elf is the Empress..." Disguising herself as a white-haired elf using the Veil of Deception and then going out of the palace to stroll the streets?

She really has the leisure for that.

After realizing this, the doubts in Tania’s mind were resolved. Then, this former First Apostle, somewhat embarrassed, raised her hand and patted the white-haired girl’s shoulder.

"Goddess, you’d better not go looking for your companion for now."

"Hm?" The white-haired girl tilted her head, her eyes full of confusion.

In response, Tania could only sigh and say helplessly:

"Right now, she is not our companion yet. It would be very risky for you to go find her."

"..."

"But you don’t need to worry. As long as you continue to stare at the Girl of Destiny as before, believe me, that person will soon become our companion."

…

On the other side, as night fell, Yumo, who had been wandering outside for most of the day and experienced many things, returned to the Purple Night Palace feeling a bit mentally exhausted. Seeing that Mengxi was still busy outside and hadn’t returned, Yumo, under the guidance of the maids, came to the palace’s bathroom.

Apparently, Yumo, who had been active for an entire day, planned to take a good bath to relax her body and wash away the rich food aroma brought back from the commercial street.

The maids of the Purple Night Palace obviously wanted to serve their Empress while bathing, but at Yumo’s insistence, the maids could only leave in disappointment, leaving the spacious bathroom to Yumo alone.

Soon, the peerlessly beautiful black-haired girl, stripped of her clothes, lay entirely in the bath, allowing the hot water to soak her whole body. In an instant, a warm current spread throughout Yumo’s body, the steamy hot air dispersed all around, the hot water was soft and smooth, directly giving Yumo a feeling of pleasure as if she were basking in the spring breeze, refreshing to the heart.

"Mmm, indeed, after wandering outside for a day, soaking in a hot bath feels really comfortable." However, before Yumo could properly enjoy this moment of comfort, a burning sensation suddenly emanated from the parts of her skin soaked by the hot water, causing Yumo to instantly furrow her brows. Although the burning sensation wasn’t strong, it instantly attracted Yumo’s attention. She glanced at her lower abdomen, the place where Mengxi’s fingers had been rubbing last night.

Feeling the unusual burning sensation on that part of her skin, Yumo raised her eyebrows in puzzlement.

Just like that, under Yumo’s suspicious gaze, some strange symbols gradually emerged on her delicate, snow-white skin.

Hm? This, this is? What? Words??
