Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter IV Chapter 160

KLANG KLANG KLANG

Alice's sword and Elysia's scythe clashed strongly against each other. They then retreated together to take some distance. Elysia really did not blink when she tried to kill the woman she already considered her mother.

"Haha...Hows it? Do you like my gift? You must be surprised, right?" Erebos asked after he laughed cheerfully.

Alice glanced up at a glance then she looked back at Elysia. "What have you done to him?"

"Not much. I'm just manipulating his memory and vision." Answer Erebos relax. He sounded like he was mocking Alice.

Men like swimming in satisfaction.

Again and again, Erebos plays his cunning tricks. Is he a God with puppet expert abilities or what?

Many things Alice wanted to ask, but Elysia moved forward with her sickle swing and it made Alice unable to serve Erebos any longer.

Although the attack was wide and there were gaps everywhere. Yet each slash was so smooth and swift. The momentum he took was also quite astute.

"Little by little, his scythe will hit me. Didn't expect him to be able to study it this deep." Mumbled Alice.

"Focus on your fight. Let me enjoy your show. After you lose, then victory is in my hands. Kukuku's...Haha."

Alice clucked in annoyance. He brushed off the scythe of Elysia that came at him with his sword.

Alice realizes that Erebos is trying to play into her feelings. He cannot lose control of his emotions. Given that so many victims drown because of the whispers and sweet seduction that affect one's soul, however Alice must maintain her calm.

He let out a long sigh many times to calm his heart that was pounding with rage.

"Alright Elysia. Show your mother it's about the progress of your fighting techniques all along."

Physical exercises, swords, spears, arrows and bare hands. For decades in this world of memories, Alice had been guiding Elysia closely almost every day. No matter the hot sun or the cold rain. Elysia continued to forge her abilities under Alice's strict guidance.

"You who always try to be strong and never give up the rigors of the training I give. I want to see how far you've progressed."

Heeded the small snort and laughter of Erebos. Alice refocused on Elysia.

"At least it benefits me because you're not as strong as Echidna. As a mother, I didn't just educate my first daughter. Even I have to teach my second daughter a lesson as well." Alice sighed, she raised her shoulders and and arms simultaneously while shaking her head. The negative emotions have disappeared. He began to enjoy the situation.

The room suddenly went dark. There was no one there but the two of them. Erebos seemed to have set up the fighting arena just for them.

"Yeahahoo!" Elysia shouted while running towards Alice.

A few moments before...

When they entered the safe room. The disciples and Evelyn were finally able to relax themselves and breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hey, Elysia. Was that woman really your mother?" Aili suddenly approached Elysia and asked.

Elysia nodded. "Yes. Her mother. If there's a mother, I'm calm." The answer.

"Is he very strong? I saw him fighting on balance with the Minotaur, even he had it thrown earlier. You know that's really surprising." Maya joined in on their conversation. He seemed quite enthusiastic about his words.

Elysia smiled, she was happy when she saw her classmate praising her mother. "That's not how much. My mother was actually very strong. So you don't have to worry." Proudly said.

Aili, Maya and Esther who had just joined the roost also began to be amazed. They had sparkling eyes hearing Elysia tell her about her mother. Seeing the young girls so calm, Evelyn felt that she no longer needed to worry about their condition.

"Everything is fine, thank God. Even so, the strength of the woman is not playing. He was far above me. The Minotaur that belonged to a monster that had high defense was able to throw easily." Mumbled mind.

Meanwhile Reiss and Yester decided to go look around the room. They feel interested and curious about how the room works so that it can make monsters can not enter it.

"It's a little laughable to join their chat." Reiss laughed awkwardly while scratching the back of his head.

"You're right. I'm even more curious about this place." Say Yester.

That safe room or area might not be so large, its area was only about two noble room spaces if put together. Nothing special in it either. Like dungeons in general, the only rocks in it are from small to large sizes. The walls are ordinary. No carvings or important notes were kept there. But there was one thing that could catch people's attention, namely the shining blue crystal that floated on the ceiling in the middle of the room. The crystal shone brightly into a lamp that illuminated the entire room.

They assemble.

"What's this box?" Esther asked while pointing at him.

Evelyn who was holding the box began to check it in its entirety. He felt something strange coming from the box, but he himself could not explain it well. "Where did you find him?" Evelyn asked both of them.

Yester pointed towards the stone. "Behind that rock." The answer.

Everyone became curious to want to see the contents. Evelyn did not want to open it at all and wanted to take it back to the academy to research. But the disciples begged him with a hearty expression.

Evelyn became helpless with their gentle plea. He shook his hand "Alright. Alright. But because we don't know what's in it. I want you two steps back."

""Baik~"" replied the students simultaneously and they stepped back according to Evelyn's direction.

Evelyn opened it slowly. His eyes tried to peer into the wooden box, but he could not see anything. It's dark in it. As the box opened wider, a black ball jumped out. The ball flew around in the middle of them.

Elysia saw the ball flying towards Helian. She felt an uneasy feeling just like Evelyn. Elysia felt that the black sphere was not something good. As the ball got closer to Helian. Elysia immediately jumped up and pushed Helian.

"Helian! Watch out!"

"Duh Elysia's. Why suddenly....Hm? Elysia?"

The fallen Elysia did not respond to Helian's words. He was silent in a position on the ground.

"Gosom.." Call Helian again.

Esther was worried. "Is it possible that he injured himself while jumping earlier? Where's that ball anyway? Is it just a feeling that the ball went into Elysia's body?" Mumbled mind.

Evelyn shook her head. "You here, I help you wake up." He approached Elysia. But when he reached out his hand to grab Elysia, Evelyn lost her hand in the blink of an eye.

Blood just flows. Suddenly people fell silent with bodies shivering in fear. They don't know what's going on? Why did Elysia attack instructor Evelyn?

Some of them turned pale instantly.

Elysia woke up slowly. A huge scythe just appeared in his grasp. He glanced at everyone with his cold gaze.

His mouth closed but no one heard what he said.

"E-ELY...?" Helian felt that there was something strange about Elysia's aura. Something dark and stifling seemed to wrap around Elysia's body. "You guys...Careful. I feel like there's something wrong with Elysia." Helian immediately warned everything.

They also held a standby position.

The atmosphere became quiet and gripping. Elysia stood in the middle of the crowd of her friends and instructors.

Without any warning, Elysia raised her scythe to the sky and dissipated from their sight.

One by one the disciples slashed at him easily without a fight. They all suffered injuries. Even Evelyn was already helpless due to the first attack earlier.

Those who were still able to stand chose to fight.

I don't know what happened to Elysia.

"There's no way out but that door." Evelyn. The door was right behind Elysia.

They could not get there, Evelyn was sure that Elysia would not let them leave this place. The only option was to fight and try to defeat Elysia.

Evelyn, Helian, Yester and Reiss. Only the remaining four of them were able to stand up to fight Elysia but unfortunately the fight ended quickly. They were badly injured.

"Sister!!!" Esther screamed loudly when she saw her brother being thrown into the wall by Elysia. The roar of her tears flowed profusely, looking at her brother's body that no longer moved.

As the scythe pierced through the body of Yester. The cute girl and cheerful personality threw her sadistically.

Helian hit the ground. Elysia? What exactly happened to you?!
