1029 The Battle Against Time
“Where did the other Goddesses go? Why did they let Elysia fight alone? Are they still planning something else? Isn’t it time you tell me the rest of the plan?” Xero was impatient as he could not see the whole ever-changing plan.
How could he know of the more than a million possible plans those Goddesses had planned!? They had only told him one grand plan, and he had already done his part.
Luna looked at the other girls and asked them to leave this matter to her. “Since the Ruvoid God Prysm is already in the absolute domain, I can tell you. We don’t know the in-depth details either. However, there is one clear thing. They are there all along, fighting alongside Master Elysia.”
“They’re there all along? Is it possible-” Oceanid tried to guess, but he didn’t dare say it. He suspected it, but he could sense that Elysia possessed as many divine laws as the other Goddesses had. It was not just a single existence.
“Yes, the Goddesses combined their power and staked it all on Elysia. Our master is a special divine-class entity, you know? She hasn’t reached her true divinity but can contain everything in her body.” Luna nodded slightly. She knew the Sea God had guessed it.
“Combine? Do you mean the fusing technique? I know the Goddess of Life and the Goddess of Nature have that kind of technique. So, that is their ultimate trump card, huh. The only way to match the power of the supreme cosmic being.” Regulus transformed into a lion man and crossed his arms while staring at the starry night domain.
“If Elysia is the host, she holds the burden of far too many different divine laws. I’m afraid she can’t handle it for long. Did they say anything else? Is there anything we can do or prepare for?” Oceanid became more anxious than before.
One great power might be great, but no one could salvage the situation when Elysia fell to a disadvantage since the Goddesses bet everything on one occasion.
“For now, there’s nothing we can do but wait and pray.” Vanessa raised her hand.
“However, Master Elysia said one sentence before the Ruvoid God awakened yesterday.” Yuuki crossed her arms and tapped her cheeks.
“Yeah, that’s one, right? Ely said implicitly to give her three days, and they would emerge victorious?” Sylvia dropped her fist onto her open palm. She remembered it very clearly.
“Three days? Does the battle our master’s divine avatar go through count there?” Lynn put her hand to her chin.
“Eh-huh? That, I’m not really sure.” Sylvia scratched her head. She wasn’t so sure either.

“Yes, that’s it. That’s very important, but we must also prepare for our swift rescue.” Evelyn expressed her opinion as she was more concerned about Elysia’s safety.
“We need to prepare the main cannon just in case too.” Ella nodded in agreement.
The girls then discussed things the Goddesses had told them before the battle started.
The three little dragons watched from the side as if they had nothing to do now. They only stared at the absolute domain worriedly.
“And to you, glorious Gods. We beg you to prepare for the worst. Our master entrusted us with a single-use divine artifact in case we had no hope of eliminating the Ruvoid God. As the final desperate resort, we will throw the Ruvoid God to the other side of the universe or the outer realm.” Luna stated the conclusion respectfully. She displayed a black prism artifact in her hand.
“Please hand it over to me. If Elysia and the Goddess are defeated, then I am the one who will throw that fcking Ruvoid God into another universe.” Xero reached out his hand with a burning conviction in his eyes.
“Are you sure you want to do it alone? We need about five seconds to open the universe’s tunnel portal.” Luna squinted her eyes as she tried to probe this Heretic God’s motivation.
“That’s enough. We have two Gods that can buy time, and this spaceship can still fire the main anti-matter cannon as a distraction.” Xero snatched the black prism artifact.
After that, she walked out of the command room. “Well then, I’ll use a random room to recover as soon as possible. They won’t be easily defeated, but they even have plans for the worst-case scenario too.”
“I think we can hold the monster down for five seconds.” Oceanid sighed.
“Hum. That’s doable.” Regulus agreed with that.
Afterwards, they left and used a random empty room to continue their self-healing meditation.
‘Luna, why did you give the artifact to the Heretic God? That is our last resort that Ely has entrusted to us.’ Sylvia couldn’t understand what this vixen had in mind.
‘He won’t rest easy if he doesn’t hold it. We have one more spare artifact in case the first universe’s tunnel portal fails to send the Ruvoid God to another universe.’ Luna tried to reassure the girls. She knew it was a bit risky, but she had to buy the trust of the Gods so they would help them to the end in these ever-changing scenarios.
The girls then fully analyzed Elysia’s absolute domain’s magic fluctuations and composition. When it showed signs of collapsing, they would immediately act to aid their master as per the plan.
…
The situation inside the absolute domain was getting worse as time went on. Elysia almost lost track of time, but Elena did the timer with an hourglass for her.
The three days time limit almost passed, and Elysia and her enemy were both at a disadvantage in the prolonged battle because they both had skills related to absorption.
The dimensional cracks were everywhere because of the supreme-class clashes that had occurred thousands or tens of thousands of times.
“What should we do? That thing is like a tough nut that is very difficult to beat even in this kind of environment that is in our favor.” Fortuna felt even more anxious when Elysia almost reached the power usage limit.
It would only be life-threatening if Elysia used supreme power actively for far too long.
“We only have less than four hours.” Nell pointed at the hourglass.
“I know that Sera was much harder to beat. Ely and I had the upper hand because the other party had little mercy. Ely could Sera because the other party underestimated her, but that monster is indestructible.” Ai bit her fingernails, feeling anxious and frustrated.
“At this rate, Ely will use that twelve-wings sigil. We must prevent it.” Lifa had her worries as she had her guess Elysia’s twelve wings sigil might be used to summon Sera. The burden would be too much for Elysia, even with their current fused existence.
“No, we don’t know what will happen if we come into contact with the Seraph of the End. Sera might become another Ruvoid God, but worse! We have probably exhausted almost all of Ruvoid God’s trump cards. He can no longer recover instantly again. See, he actually looks even more miserable than us.” Rhea strictly forbade it.
‘Our power and EP are not infinite. I will use it as a final struggle before this absolute domain collapses. Please help me out to lessen the risk. We must not let this Ruvoid God come out alive. We have to eradicate it here.’ Elysia joined the conversation in the middle of her super-intense battle.
The Ruvoid God didn’t let her off the hook after the previous relentless attacks. Elysia covered her body with six angel wings to protect herself from invisible attacks. She then fired a few cosmo arrows as she kept a safe shooting distance from the Ruvoid God.
“If you have time to talk, why not help us to dispel these weird mental attacks that invaded Ely!?” Elena felt overwhelmed but also a bit irritated.
Elysia shot several disruption arrows and dodged her enemy’s counterattacks. She was at her wit’s end, actually. Her ultimate techniques had been used in this battle, but Prysm still came out in one piece.
Her greatest achievement was injuring her enemy bit by bit. They were fighting a draw, but she was also fighting against time. It would be disastrous to exceed the three days power usage time limit.
It would be fine if her body fusion didn’t use supreme magic, but her body couldn’t withstand it if exposed for too long to channel that kind of pinnacle of power. She might die from the repercussions.
As for the twelve wings sigil on Elysia’s hand, she luckily won against Sera and got a wish to be granted. She asked Sera to help her eliminate a super strong creature named the strongest Ruvoid God. Therefore, she obtained this mysterious sigil.
Sera reminded her not to use the sigil before she reached a higher level of power and unshakable confidence. No one knew the effect it would have if Elysia activated her sigil. Still, somehow, she felt it was a summoning contract.
Sera was an extremely powerful entity in the Boundless Realm. Sera’s non-buffed, simple form could even obliterate the solar system if she wanted to. Thus, Elysia could ask for that help at the last moment.
‘You seem to be nearing your limit, Elysia. It’s my first time fighting to this point. I commend your capabilities. It’s a pity, but it will reach its end anyway. This whole ordeal is fun, but let’s wrap it up. I shall kill you and then refine you as my puppet. Don’t ever dream of self-destructing.’ Prysm sent his words via telepathy.
‘The Ruvoid God will use his final ultimate trump card! Please be prepared. This will be much more terrible than the other attacks, everyone!’ Zera warned Elysia and the Goddesses via their divine spiritual connection.
