Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 856 Erina's Birthday Party

Because Elysia’s presence was confirmed, Erina immediately opened her birthday party greeting. Everyone congratulated her and gave gifts to her.

“Hmph, I have no reason to be here. Elysia, you will be in this Earth Realm for a week, right?” Xero snorted as he looked at the humans below.

“Are you going somewhere?” Elysia nodded slightly.

“Yeah, I won’t do anything weird, so you don’t have to worry.” Xero folded his arms.

“All right. I will give you a notification if there is a change of plans.” Elysia had no reason to restrain Xero either if he wanted to leave.

“Good. Then, I shall take my leave.” Xero turned into a flash of darkness and went outside the barrier of disguise. He grabbed a few bottles of wine and left the vicinity before disappearing into the dark night.

“Hmm, so it’s his innate skill. He can turn into a dark particle without using magic.” Gaia put her hand to her chin.

“Innate skills, talents, and natural abilities sometimes don’t require magic to work.” Lifa explained a little. She then sat around a special table that had been prepared for them.

‘Ely, Lifa tried to recruit Gaia but failed. Sometimes, they are like old friends who haven’t seen each other in a long time. Do you think that makes sense?’ Elena voiced her suspicions via private telepathy.

‘I think it’s just because they are on the same frequency. They are senior Goddesses. And again, everyone has secrets. Just like us.’ Elysia didn’t want to be prejudiced even though she was aware that Lifa and Gaia were a bit suspicious at times.

‘While that’s true, then we have two major individuals that need to be watched. Lifa and Gaia make me feel wary sometimes. Until I see the basis of this, I shall not spare them from my conjecture.’ Elena would not rule this matter out.

‘All right, just please do everything neatly and elegantly. They are our good allies. Anyway, what about Fortuna? I think you feel wary of her a while ago.’ Elysia couldn’t stop Elena if it was said so.

‘That’s because she is the Fate Goddess, Ely. It was natural to feel wary and suspicious. However, she seems to be an intelligent and sensitive lady. She didn’t say things that could offend us even though she was aware of something about us. She was just trying her best to build a good relationship with us.’ Elena heaved a subtle sigh, and then she took her seat.

Elysia was next to her, and everyone immediately took their seats. The dishes were already served on the table, and they could enjoy their time while watching the birthday party down there.

“Woah... So, this is a birthday party that humans usually throw? It looks festive and fun.” Xentia watched the situation in the hall with sparkling eyes, but she realized something and her smile slowly faded from her face. It no longer looked fun anymore.

“Not all humans organize a celebration like this to celebrate their birthday. It is only held by people with power, authority, wealth, and the like. Can you notice something, Xentia?” Rhea beckoned to Xentia to sit back down sweetly.

“Mm, those guys seem to have other insincere intentions. Do they want something else? Not just enjoy the party?” Xentia confessed what she had just noticed.

“They want to curry favor from Erina’s family. The Minamoto Clan is one of the most prestigious clans in this country, and that’s the reason. Forget those people because they are insignificant to us.” Sylvia shrugged her shoulders.

She then smiled brightly and put her hands together. “Hehe, my birthday is only four months away, and my father is definitely throwing a party. I want you to attend the event. This must be a lot more fun!”

“Wow, devil’s birthday party? Are you a rich person too? Is Xentia also allowed to come?” Xentia felt curious.

“Sure, that’s if you become a good girl. Otherwise, I can’t provide a seat for you, heehee~” Sylvia covered her mouth.

“Xentia is a good girl, and you are also a good devil. We are all good! So, everyone is invited.” Xentia nodded with a big smile. She felt like she had just solved a mystery.

Xentia’s innocent and cute demeanor caused everyone’s chuckles and laughter. They then talked about some light things without worrying about being the center of attention, unlike in the previous banquet, which was a bit stiff due to the presence of Gods and deities.

About an hour passed, and Erina decided to excuse herself from everyone because she was feeling a little tired and wanted to rest for a while. She just left everything to her grandfather and father. She knew some people came because they had business to do, not just for her birthday party.

“Then allow me to excuse myself.” Erina bowed slightly and then went to the second floor. Mio accompanied her.

“Well, Kenji-sama, your daughter has grown into a beautiful girl with extraordinary talent.” A big old man near Kenji looked at Erina’s back with praise.

“Yes, she is my proud daughter.” Kenji was flattered by the compliment, but he knew he had something to talk about now.

“Isn’t it about time you looked for a partner for her? She is the sole successor of the Minamoto Clan, and she deserves the best.” An old man with a long thick mustache glanced at Kenji and Mitsuzuka.

“She is the one who will decide. We won’t interfere. Plus, my son is still quite young. You say that as if our end is near. Haha, I hope it’s just your small talk, Sir Wong Jin. ” Mitsuzuka laughed dryly and took a sip of his wine.

“Haha, of course. Maybe, she needs to socialize more with boys and girls her age. Her golden touch is under control now. I’m sure there are plenty of guys who will fight for her love.” Wong Jin laughed too.

They then talked about adult and parent-related matters. Some people then greeted them in between, but that was not a problem. However, rumors about Erina’s matchmaking contest were about to spread worldwide.

Erina was considered a peerless beauty by many, but all men were afraid to approach her because of her golden touch. However, the situation has changed now.

“Ellie, everyone, thanks for coming to my birthday party. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to greet you right away.” Erina entered the barrier without her knowing it. She immediately greeted everyone with an apology.

“Fufu, don’t worry about it, Erina. That’s because we’re not an ordinary group. Everyone would probably be surprised if they could see us here. You look really pretty tonight, Erina. It’s like you just came back from a fairy tale.” Elysia greeted Erina.

She checked Erina up and down. Erina was currently clad in a beautiful fancy black-gold dress with a gold crown-like hair ornament. The rose gold ornament on Erina’s waist seemed to signify something, but Elysia didn’t want to interpret its meaning to that extent.

“Mm, thank you. You look absolutely gorgeous in your aurora bluish-purple dress, Ellie. Everyone is also wearing a stunning ball gown. If everyone noticed your surprise arrival, they might be causing a bit of ruckus, hehe~” Erina covered her mouth as she couldn’t imagine what kind of incident would happen.

“Ball gown? Xentia thought it was an evening dress. However, it is beautiful and wonderful. The dress for a fun party.” Xentia responded with approval.

“Please have a seat. We have prepared a present for you. Here, please accept this.” Elysia invited Erina and Mio to take a seat on an empty seat. She then handed Erina a white gift box decorated with a beautiful flowery silver ribbon.

“Thank you very much. I really appreciate it.” Erina received the gift with a feeling of bubbly happiness. She didn’t care what it contained, but ever since it was from Elysia, she felt very happy.

“You can check the contents if you want. However, only use your spiritual power. You can open the box when you get to the room later. Only Mio is allowed to know about this gift.” Elysia nodded slightly.

“Mm?” Erina briefly checked the contents according to Elysia’s request. However, she found it was a small pouch. Even though it looked simple and ordinary, she knew it was a mysterious magic item.

“Can you see it?” Elysia asked with a bit of enthusiasm.

“Yes, it’s a pouch. An artifact pouch, a magic item.” Erin nodded.

“It’s not an ordinary pouch. You’ll find the wonder in it later. I wrote the manual for you.” Elysia gave a wink while smiling mysteriously.

The girls then congratulated Erina. They then had a short chat about a few things.

“Oh, right... Ellie, have you finished your business lately? Everything’s fine, right? I feel guilty if you have to leave everything just for me.” Erina suddenly asked because she was worried. Despite her awkwardness with the other angelic-like ladies, she still asked because she wanted to know.

“Worry not. Everything ended well. You don’t need to apologize, either. We are friends, and you are that important.” Elysia waved her hand to reassure Erina.

“I’m relieved to hear that.” Erina put her hand on her upper chest and heaved a sigh of relief. She then remembered something and asked for her smartphone from Mio. “Ellie, have you read my messages? Hm, they haven’t been sent yet?”

“Eh-ah? My apologies! We just got back, and I haven’t had time to check my smartphone yet.” Elysia immediately took her smartphone from her Space Bag.

*Bzzt* *Bzzt* *Bzzt*

Elysia received several messages. She read the contents right away.

“The grand meeting on the ninth, the day after your grand concert? But America wants us to return Xentia to them? What does this mean, Erina?” Elysia showed her smartphone to Erina.

She questioned that with a solemn yet confused expression. The news suddenly made her feel that the situation when they left Earth became pretty problematic.

“U-uuhh... Please don’t look at me like that, Ellie. I don’t know, either. I was asked to tell you. To be honest, my family doesn’t really understand either. However, allow me to tell you everything regarding that matter.” Erina immediately explained everything that had happened in the last few days regarding the grand meeting in question.

It was supposed to be a cheerful event, but the situation was quite precarious. Erina had to immediately inform Elysia and the Guardians of Dream’s members regarding this issue.
