Chapter 513 The fairies have assembled and are ready to start their battle?
The pitch-black aircraft tore through the sea of clouds, gliding silently over the land of dawn like a ferocious eagle from the abyss.
Inside the cabin, the atmosphere was both oppressive and calm.
Lily and Black Rose closed their eyes to rest, while Hilo stood straight, like the most precise instrument, awaiting instructions.
Their destination was clear.
Manju Academy.
The aircraft was extremely fast, and in no time, a magnificent floating island appeared outside the porthole.
However, just as the aircraft attempted to get closer to the island's vicinity...
"Warning! Warning! Unidentified high-energy flying unit detected!"
"Identify yourself immediately, or we will take forceful interception measures!"
A piercing alarm sounded directly inside the cabin through a special communication channel.
Lily opened her eyes, a playful smile on her face.
She walked to the control panel and activated the external communication.
"The Apostolic Order".
"Lily, Black Rose, Hilo."
She openly named the three people.
Almost at the same moment she finished speaking.
Three figures appeared out of thin air in front of the floating island, blocking the way for the aircraft.
Leading the group was Violet, surrounded by purple lightning. Violent arcs of electricity leaped around her, revealing her undisguised hostility.
To her left, Jasmine stood on a circular mechanical disc that shimmered with a blue halo, while countless miniature drones hovered around her, forming a cold, steel-like defensive line.
On the right, Forget-Me-Not floated quietly, its face no longer showing the timidity of the past, but calmly gazing at the ominous aircraft.
The three fairies formed the strongest barrier.
"What are you doing here?"
Violet spoke first, each word crackling like lightning, filled with vigilance and accusation.
Lily amplified her voice through a loudspeaker, remaining composed throughout.
"We hope to cooperate with your school."
"cooperate?"
Jasmine let out a cold laugh, her voice carrying clearly throughout the airspace through mechanical resonance.
"Your Apostle Order, under the guise of researching calamity beasts, fairies, and rift gates, has stirred up chaos around the world, causing countless innocent casualties."
“I don’t want to have anything to do with dangerous cultists like you.”
These words were sharp and direct, leaving no room for leniency.
Inside the cabin, Lily and Black Rose exchanged glances, both pondering how to break the deadlock.
at this time.
Shiloh spoke up.
"Let me go out and talk to them."
Without waiting for their response, she walked straight to the cabin door.
"laugh--"
The hatch slid open to one side, and Hilo, dressed in her classic maid outfit, calmly walked to the front of the aircraft, facing the hostile gazes of the three fairies.
She hovered in mid-air, her figure appearing extremely small in front of the massive aircraft, but her calm aura made no one dare to underestimate her.
"You should all know this very well."
Hilo spoke, her voice steady and rational, without any emotional fluctuations.
"Whether it is the end or eternity, they are not beings that can be easily dealt with."
"The changes that are about to take place in this world are far beyond what any one of us can handle alone. We all need allies."
"Even if you have prejudices against the Apostolic Order, or have opinions about me personally."
"At the very least, they should have discussed it before deciding whether to turn us away."
These words plunged Violet into a brief silence.
She carefully examined Hilo in front of her.
This woman, who had once lost control and caused them immense trouble in her attempt to seize the little fox, now appeared unusually calm, even extremely so.
Violet opened her mouth tentatively.
"You...have calmed down now?"
"It's no longer out of control?"
"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine." Shiloh's response was polite but distant.
After a moment's thought, Violet finally made a concession.
She knew very well that what Hilo said was true. Faced with existences like the end and eternity, no possible power could be easily relinquished.
"Letting you onto the island and into the academy is also an option."
Violet relented, but immediately put forward her own conditions.
"However, you must hand over all your weapons."
“And you!” she pointed at Shiloh, “you have to promise never to lay a finger on that little fox again!”
The violet was stolen by a fox before.
Therefore.
She's incredibly focused on this matter right now.
They were afraid of that experienced little fox who was now a teacher.
She was kidnapped again without warning.
"Do not worry."
Hilo responded calmly.
"Leaving aside my current situation, I don't need that little fox for the time being."
"Even if I really need her, I won't hurt her."
This promise eased Violet's tense nerves a little.
After exchanging a confirming glance with Jasmine, she finally stepped aside to make way.
Under the watchful eyes of the three fairies, the pitch-black aircraft slowly entered the area of the Sky Island and finally landed in the square in front of the main gate of Manju Academy.
When Hilo stepped off the aircraft and onto this land, even she, with her vast experience, couldn't help but be moved by the sight before her.
The entire academy's architecture presents a style that blends classic and dreamlike elements.
The towering spires pierce the clouds, their bodies composed of some kind of crystal that refracts a rainbow of colors under the sunlight. Connecting the various buildings are floating corridors entwined with vines and flowers.
In the distance, a massive waterfall cascades down from the suspended rocks, plunging into a turquoise lake, where mist rises and forms a faint rainbow.
This place doesn't feel like an academy; it's more like a sacred elven land that only exists in mythology.
As Hilo was surveying her surroundings, her gaze was drawn to a colossal creature not far away.
On that wide lawn, a gigantic black dragon was lazily lying there, dozing off.
Sunlight shines on its jet-black scales, reflecting a metallic sheen.
Demon Abyss Dragon.
At this moment, it resembles a harmless big cat, leisurely basking in the sun.
Hilo withdrew her gaze and continued following Violet into the academy.
Then, she saw a familiar figure.
Coral, the singer of the sea kingdom.
At this moment, the world-famous star is taking her sister Pearl on a tour of the academy with great interest.
"sister!"
Pearl tugged at Coral's sleeve, her large eyes sparkling with longing and excitement.
"This place is so beautiful! I want to study here too!"
However, when faced with her sister's request, Coral immediately poured cold water on it.
"You think too much."
She reached out her finger and gently tapped Pearl's forehead.
"There are still a lot of state affairs in the Sea Kingdom waiting for you to go back and deal with. Only bring this up with me again when you have finished everything you need to do."
"oops!"
Pearl covered her forehead and pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Those things are so boring! Every day it's just approving documents and meeting with ministers. It's much more interesting to study here!"
"I don't care, I want to be here!"
"If you keep doing this, I'll send you back right now."
"Waaah... Sis, you're bullying me again..."
Hilo calmly shifted her gaze away from the two sisters who were arguing about going to school.
She wasn't interested in the usual banter between sisters.
Coral clearly noticed the visitors as well. While tugging at her sister, she took a moment to raise her hand and wave in a friendly gesture towards Hilo.
It was a simple greeting.
However, Shiloh did not respond.
She didn't even nod; she simply followed Violet expressionlessly into the depths of the academy.
It was as if the greeting from that international superstar was just a passing breeze.
Just as they crossed the square and were about to enter the corridor of the main teaching building.
A lively voice came from not far away, shouting and yelling.
Immediately afterwards, a fiery red figure, accompanied by a gust of wind, excitedly ran to the front of the group and blocked everyone's path.
Hilo stopped and looked up.
What came into view was the face she had once loathed.
Scarlet cherry.
At this moment, however, the Flame Fairy who had once fought him to the death showed not a trace of hostility on her face.
Instead, there was an almost heartless enthusiasm.
"Shiloh! It's been so long!"
Hiyori's smile was so bright it was almost dazzling. She took the initiative to come closer, acting as if the two were old friends who hadn't seen each other for years.
"I was quite surprised to hear you were here!"
She looked Shiloh up and down in her classic maid outfit, then nodded to herself.
"Come on! Since you've come all this way, let me show you around our academy!"
As she spoke, she reached out to grab Hilo's arm.
This enthusiastic yet bizarre behavior left not only Hiro herself bewildered, but also Lily and Black Rose, who were following behind.
This guy……
Is your brain okay?
"Scarlet Cherry Blossom!"
A stern rebuke stopped her in time.
Violet quickly stepped forward, grabbed Scarlet Sakura's unruly hand, and pulled her behind her.
"Listen up! We have serious business to discuss!"
Violet's face was filled with helplessness and warning; she didn't want any complications to arise before the talks even began due to Sakura's eccentric behavior.
"What does it matter?"
Hiyori, who had been pulled away, looked completely unconvinced.
She retorted confidently.
“Xilo was originally Taoyao’s maid, so she must know Taoyao better than any of us.”
"Her goal is the same as ours: to find Tao Yao."
Hiyori continued to offer her insightful opinions using the logic that "we are natural allies."
"Since we share the same goal, then we're friends! What's wrong with friends visiting the academy? Maybe when we discuss cooperation later, they can even ask for some extra benefits because of me!"
This truly bizarre line of thought left everyone present speechless.
Violet covered her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
She decided to give up trying to reason with this single-celled organism.
She simply turned her head and gave Shiloh and the other two an apologetic look.
Then, ignoring Hiyori who was still muttering "That's so unfair," he led them towards the academy's meeting room.
……
at the same time.
The distant goddess's kingdom, the origin of all things.
In that room, meticulously decorated with the concepts of end and eternity, Tao Yao slowly opened her eyes.
After several days of recuperation, nourished by the top-quality ingredients provided by the two supreme fairies at any cost, her strength, which had been depleted due to the forced birth of the little fox, has been largely restored.
The sickly pallor on her face had faded, and her rosy glow had returned.
"Xiao Mo, Xiao Heng."
she called softly.
The next second, two figures appeared at the same time beside her bed.
"The beginning".
The End and Eternity stood on either side, their gazes simultaneously fixed on her, filled with concern.
"I'm fine now."
With a gentle smile, Tao Yao sat up in bed and stretched her body.
Then, she made a request.
"I want to go and see the temple of the goddess."
This proposal caused both the end times and eternity to frown.
Is it necessary?
Zhong Mo spoke first, her logic simple and direct: "Your body has only just started to recover, you should continue to rest."
“A place like a temple is cold and empty; it’s not good for you.”
Yongheng echoed her sentiment, showing more concern for Taoyao's physical sensations.
Despite the two children's worries, Tao Yao's smile remained unchanged.
She spoke softly, in an unquestionable yet incredibly gentle tone.
"There are some things that must be done."
Her gaze passed over the two of them and fell upon the unchanging void outside the window, as if she were looking at something very important.
The End and Eternity exchanged a glance.
They saw a seriousness on Tao Yao's face that was different from her usual lazy and playful demeanor.
After confirming that Tao Yao's condition had indeed stabilized and she was no longer as weak as she had been a few days ago, they finally gave in.
"We'll go with you."
The final words were spoken.
"I'm holding you up."
Eternity has already stepped forward and extended its hand.
Surrounded by two supreme fairies, Tao Yao slowly walked out of the room and returned to the magnificent yet empty goddess temple.
It's as clean and tidy as ever.
The mechanical dolls that underwent final restoration tirelessly maintained every corner of the temple, keeping it spotless.
Above the towering dome are murals depicting creation myths, and huge pillars support the entire structure of the temple, which is carved with intricate and sacred patterns, full of classical and orderly beauty.
Everything seemed solemn and dignified.
Tao Yao's gaze swept over the familiar murals and pillars, finally settling on the highest steps at the deepest part of the temple.
God's throne.
She broke free from Yongheng's support and, step by step, walked alone up those long steps.
End and Eternity followed closely behind her, ready to deal with any unexpected events that might occur.
Soon, Tao Yao arrived before the throne carved from an unknown white stone.
On the armrests of the throne, there are several clearly visible cracks, marks left from the last great battle, which even the end could not perfectly repair.
Tao Yao stretched out her slender fingers and gently stroked the cold cracks.
She stared at it for a long time.
But he didn't sit down.
A moment later, she turned around, looked down at the two fairies below the steps, and announced a decision in a nonchalant tone.
"Let's renovate the temple."
"?"
"?"
Above the concepts of end and eternity, a large question mark seemed to appear simultaneously.
furnish?
They couldn't understand Tao Yao's thoughts at all.
The style of this temple was personally determined by the goddess of the old era, symbolizing supreme divine authority and order. Why renovate it?
Just as they were puzzled.
Tao Yao slowly raised her right hand.
With a soft shimmer of light, a crystal-clear crown, as if formed from countless stars, quietly appeared in her palm.
Crystal crown.
The moment I saw this crown.
Whether it is the end or eternity.
Their movements froze completely at that moment.
This is……
They recognized the crown.
That was the crown that the goddess of the old era once wore on her head!
