Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter IV Chapter 166

Alice and Elysia fought so intensely. The swing of the weapons were both quite difficult to catch the eye. With their fast hoops, their weapons became invisible and only made a loud noise.

Helian felt uneasy about the situation that was happening in front of her. Why did Elysia suddenly attack Alice? Ask her.

Although he actually did not feel any animosity or killing intent from Elysia, he still did not understand what was happening between the two. As Helian knew, this was their first meeting.

Stroke Elysia and Alice's legs so gently without leaving a trace of sound. But the loud thump of their weapons that were anchoring each other seemed deafening.

The surrounding servants and soldiers began to come filling that side of the garden.

They thought there was an intruder attacking the Queen. When they see it, it turns out it's just a battle of abilities between the hero and the Queen's best friend.

They were amazed to see that top-tier fight.

'Woahh'.that is the impression that is drawn from the look of their faces and gazes.

With confidence Elysia continued to swing her scythe. He was convinced that, with the overflowing power within him, he was able to launch at least one or two attacks at Alice.

At first glance Elysia remembered the promise Alice made when she was 10 years old in her dream.

That was when they were training...

"As long as you can hurt me, even if it's just a hair. Then you're the winner."

"really?"

"certain."

"if I win, what do I get from my mother?"

"You want a gift, huh? Hmm.. How about I follow your one request."

"really? I promise ya."

"Promise."

A year after they were together, that promise was still even clear in his head until now.

Elysia's spirit and enthusiasm were burning. He swung his scythe strongly.

KLANG!

The two sharp blades of their weapons met each other. Alice and Elysia face to face.

"fufu, how? You must be surprised, right? This time I'll win." Elysia.

He smiled happily. A little more, at least he only needed to enter a single attack.

Alice closed her eyes for a moment. "Maybe not. You still need to practice." Then Alice shifted her legs and body to the side quickly.

Elysia lost her balance due to Alice suddenly changing positions. Yet he was so agile and used his scythe as a pedestal. Elysia pushed her body upwards, then she spun in the air along with her scythe. Elysia also launched her attack.

Alice shifted her legs slightly, she dodged like a paper-thin. "Lumayan. Your movements are getting smoother and more purposeful." Said Alice. "In that case, I'll be a little serious. You better prepare yourself."

Elysia jumped back twice. He was able to sense the rising energy waves inside Alice's body.

Alice had only used basic sword techniques. After seeing Elysia's progress she decided she would use her plum flower sword technique.

"I don't know how the scythe is still on him. But I no longer felt any evil energy from him. Instead, I felt pure energy like it belonged to Yggdrasil. Did Sylph do something to Elysia?" Alice muttered in her mind.

Alice stood up and mounted her horses. His sword moved to his side gently. When the Qi energy had gathered and was ready to be released, Alice made her first move.

[Plum Blossom Sword Technique, First Style. Whirlwind]

Elysia could feel something strong and dense coming crashing down on her. He closed his eyes to strengthen his senses so that he could sense Alice's direction of attack.

Like an invisible collection of fine needles swirling before him. They were spinning faster coming towards him. The sweet and fragrant scent of flowers also flashed past his nasal cavity. But Elysia knew that it was just an illusion created from her mother's strange energy waves and techniques.

Elysia was undaunted, she tightened her grip and chose to go forward. He brushed off the whirlwind of the needle with his scythe.

"Hoho, then next."

[Plum Blossom Sword Technique, Second Style. The Three Plum Blossom Sword]

Alice opened the positions of the other horses. Like a bullet, Alice shot towards Elysia with her drawn sword.

[Rapid Slash] The movement of swinging his sword swiftly over and over again as if the user was intending to stab his opponent.

Elysia grinned. He had seen this movement before. He knows the third move.

Elysia turned around and just directly took a swing to swing her scythe. When Alice failed to hit Elysia, the next step was the movement where Alice pierced through her enemy's body with a stab full of Qi energy.

True as expected. Alice stabbed swiftly towards him. As Alice's sword tip had reached its strike distance, Elysia quickly swung her scythe upwards to deflect Alice's attack direction.

The two continued their fight until Elysia was able to withstand five moves from Alice's plum flower sword technique.

Elysia finally gasped. Meanwhile Alice still looks in top condition.

The opposite with Helian. His anxiety and confusion turned into anger. He was really upset to see the behavior of two people in front of his eyes.

Give me back my anxiety! Seen from his face reddened with anger, he seemed to want to shout at them.

The faces of his two friends were so annoying. They smile and look happy. They had fun, while he suffered.

Helian massaged her temple as she glanced at her garden into a 'slightly' mess because of her two cool 'playing' friends'.

Helian squeezed both of her hands. The veins on his head were clearly stiffened.

Helian raised one hand forward. In an instant he made a wall of thorny tendrils between Alice and Elysia.

Alice and Elysia stopped. They looked at Helian's irritated face.

Finally they realized when the two noticed what they had actually done.

Alice immediately put her sword into her dimension ring, then she turned her face away and pretended not to see anything.

Meanwhile, Elysia patted both of her hands hard. He ran over to Helian with a big smile on his face. "W-Wa~h~. Helian~" Elysia hugged Helian. "Congratulations ya~. The kingdom is finally safe again. From the beginning I was sure you could save this country. Hehe..."

NAH!

The sound of a switch in Helian's head was triggered. Elysia who acted as if nothing had happened and shifted the topic instead clouded Helian's mood.

Helian fell silent, he clenched his teeth and exploded.

"You-you! What did you say, huh?! Say it again!" With a high voice Helian snapped pouring her frustration at Elysia.

"Uwaa~ mother~" Elysia ran for cover behind Alice's back.

Alice shook her head looking at my unrelenting behavior Elysia teased Helian. Well, they've been friends for hundreds of years.

"Cabin! Don't hide behind....." Helian who pointed at Elysia did not continue her sentence.

His brain needs a little time to process what he just heard. Just now.... did I hear wrong? Ask her confused.

"What did you call him?"

"Mother." Spontaneous answer Elysia.

"Mother?! Eh? How come? She was Alice from the hyuman race. Why do you call her mom?" Helian did not understand. What is it about the relationship of mother and child that has just been established in front of him.

Is Elysia still delirious?

"Know. But she's my mother. Yes of course I call mom." The plain face and look nothing wrong made Helian even more frustrated.

From when her best friend was so close that she recognized Alice as her mother.

Again, what is with this sudden mother-daughter relationship?! Inner scream.

"No, no, no. You know it. You guys just met. Then why can you call her mom?"

Elysia placed her index finger under her chin as she tilted her head. "Why...?"

Elysia and Alice turned their heads and looked at each other. Then they smile.

Elysia looked back at Helian. He placed his palm in front of his lips while saying in a seductive tone. "Fufufu, Ra-ha-si-a." With the blink of one eye.

Helian could only go silent enduring the pain in her head. From the past until now, the cheerful Elysia still liked to play tricks on him.

"Ughhhh! Never mind, it's up to you." Her speech.

He sat back down and sipped his tea to calm his aching head in confusion.
