1022 I'll Protect You
When the battles against the accursed occurred on various continents, the fairies could be called the luckiest because no more sealed areas were left on their continent.
However, that didn’t mean they had no part in protecting their planet from the evil invaders who destroyed the world one hundred thousand years ago.
The fairy troops were dispatched to other continents via teleport waypoints to assist the other race as their support role would be helpful.
When the fairy reinforcements arrived, Luna and the elves watched how the accursed creatures were crushed before their eyes like ants. The battlefield had concluded, but elves weren’t the ones who eliminated all the accursed creatures.
*Boom!* *Boom!*
The elf army was teleported to the safe zone. Then meteors rained down on the battlefield and annihilated the accursed creatures. The overlord monster couldn’t escape the destruction and was swallowed up by the deadly impact.
“More than half of the army was wiped out in the two days of battle. Even the Almighty Goddess needed to step in to eliminate those monsters…” Ashera Nirvalen slumped to the ground. She led her elven combined army as the supreme commander, but they were defeated.
The elves received gifts from the Goddesses and implemented the plans. However, they still failed to protect their land from the last sealed area in their territory. The overlord monster was unstoppable. Without the Goddesses’ help, the elf army might have been completely wiped from the battlefield.
That feeling of incompetence made Elven Empress Ashera feel depressed and self-reproachful.
“Don’t blame yourself. Everyone has worked hard and risked their lives to protect their homeland, but those monsters are too much trouble. That weird wolf-like creature is to blame because its soul attack can kill people in one hit. I was very close to death fighting that mythical cursed beast.” Luna was panting while holding her chest.
It was a close call, but Elysia saved her life before her demise. Although, her good master did not come down to appear in person.
“It was as easy as snapping a finger for her to summon a meteor shower of destruction. If it weren’t for confronting the Ruvoid God on the moon, she could eliminate all the overlord monsters within seconds.” Lynn tried to comfort the devastated Elven Empress.
“The battlefield is where people are ready to die to protect their land and loved ones. Victory doesn’t come easily, or it will become a cheap glory.” Yusagi expressed her opinion as she winched in pain.
“Don’t talk too much. Your soul was still unstable because of the previous soul attack.” Luna patted Yusagi’s forehead.
“Yes, milady.” Yusagi closed her eyes and focused on recovering.
“How are the other Elven Emperors?” Ashera struggled to stand up and looked at the destruction level. The devastating meteor explosion in the distance still happened even though the accursed could no longer be seen anywhere.
“They are being treated in an emergency clinic. They have minor and major injuries, but not life-threatening. You don’t need to worry.” Luna crossed her arms under her breasts and stared into the twilight sky.
“Alright then… Lady Luna, may I know what the Goddesses have to say about us elves?” Ashera felt somewhat relieved.
Luna asked Elysia, then repeated the answer she got. “You did your best. I eliminated all of them to lessen the total destruction as the situation got out of control.”
“May I know who answered my question? Are they disappointed in us?” Ashera continued.
“Why, they have to? This battlefield suddenly became a desperate battle without us having time to prepare. That monster immediately used its ultimate attack at the beginning of its appearance.” Luna had no idea why Ashera was so worried, but she seemed to see this Elven Empress like an abandoned puppy.
“Is that the opinion of the Goddess of Light?” Ashera grasped her hand, feeling a bit nervous. Yes, the elves were not at fault. That was all because the terrible overlord monster immediately launched its ultimate attack and wiped out the vanguard in one move. They did not disappoint the Goddesses.
“Elysia is the one who spoke to me. She is the supreme one who presides over the entire world’s defensive measures.” Luna spoke in a whisper-like voice. She didn’t feel like they always needed to keep secrets about Elysia.
“!?” Ashera was taken aback. She didn’t expect Elysia to be the one leading everything. The Goddesses and Gods listened to that young human girl?
‘Lu, Luna!?’ Elysia was also surprised.
‘Worry not, master~ Ashera is wise and knows what to do. Haven’t the elves chosen the Goddess of Light as their Patron Goddess?’ Luna gave her reasons.
‘Uh, whatever it is… Please help the elves to handle the aftermath. After that, please immediately return to my side. I will tend to your soul wound.’ Elysia sighed.
‘Yes! Thank you, Master Ely!’ Luna was pleased.
Luna stared into the enormous hellish craters in the distance. The meteor explosion was over, and nothing was left on the battlefield.
Therefore, she walked away and raised her hand in farewell. “Soul damage will take a relatively long time to recover. It would be best if you took a rest first, Empress Ashera. I will help you handle the aftermath of the battle. Lynn, please look after Yusagi and Ashera.”
“…” Elysia surveyed the battlefield in the elven forest. Elves received the most enormous death toll compared to other territories, thanks to a particular wolf-like mythical beast and its massive AoE soul attack.
She felt slightly down when she saw that no more than a quarter of the army had survived the two days of fierce war. She should have stepped in sooner. She could reduce the loss of life if she eliminated all accursed creatures in the world with her divine magic.
“War is a battle of glory. They need to rewrite history, and a new era will be born. No one will appreciate peace if they get it easy.” Elena held Elysia’s shoulder from behind.
“Mm, I see. That’s why we don’t interfere much before the situation gets out of their control, right?” Elysia nodded meekly.
“We need to reserve our strength as much as possible because the judgment day is almost here. He is wary of us, but so are we.” Elena stared at the moon, then wrapped her arms around Elysia’s neck.
“What if we throw the moon far into the other galaxies and dimensions?” Nell proposed an idea.
“He might come back when we are least aware, and that monster might arrive in another civilized world. Either way, it’s a bad decision because we will feel responsible.” Rhea shook her head.
“Yeah, violence is never the answer. It is a question, and the answer is yes! We shall kill him and let him feel the despair.” Zera chuckled as she lay back, staring at the moon.
“The situation in the Dwarven Continent can be handled by themselves, thanks to the dwarven masterpieces. Our envoys barely even get a part in the battle since it’s the battle with machinery.” Fortuna was amused by the girls who were sent there.

“The Fairy Continent is clean and safe.” Ai gave an ok hand gesture.
“Sea God singlehandedly slays the overlord monster of the deep sea. It will only be a matter of time. He can exterminate all the accursed creatures with the help of the merfolk and sea tribes.” Lifa observed the vast ocean and other locations around it for a broader view.
“The one that concerns me is the corrupted ones in the forbidden land. They fought against the accursed creatures as per the pact, but they couldn’t catch up with those who fled. Five mutated plant monsters ganged up on the overlord monster to protect their territory.” Rhea reported the results of her observations in the forbidden land.
“They will be on the losing side soon. They have a tolerance against the curse energy but no immunity. We don’t give them an anti-curse mechanism either. But we will give them a helping hand as promised. They won’t die.” Lifa waved her hand. Everything was still according to plan.
“The conclusion of the world struggle will be over in two days. We have three days for the moon and outer space battle.” Elena stroked a particular nature spirit.
“Yes, but that is the battle between Gods. Elysium members below the divine level will not engage in direct clashes in outer space.” Elysia released another nature spirit after cleansing them from the divine curse.
“You will ban them?” Elena smiled faintly.
“They will assist from a safe distance. The battle to protect something is harder than destroying everything, after all. Ruvoid God has a huge advantage in the upcoming battle.” Elysia leaned against Elena’s breasts and looked up. She stared at her guardian angel’s beautiful face.
“What is it?” Elena gently smiled.
“Don’t be afraid. I will protect you. We will save many people by ending the Ruvoid God’s abomination.” Elysia replied with a bright expression.
