Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 534 - Try To Understand

"I'll take this, this, this, and that. You also need some other dresses, Yuuki. You'll look dull if you just wear that white robe all the time." Sylvia shoved some pretty dresses for the tailed beastkin to Yuuki.

"Ah, eh? I can't afford all of this." Yuuki was dumbfounded to see the dresses in her hands.

"Fret not, I'm rich and important. I'll pay for everything for you. You should be grateful. Now, come with me to that dressing room." Sylvia grabbed Yuuki's arm and dragged the snow fox girl away.

"Hm, they're suddenly getting along very well without bickering? It's a nice change." Evelyn was pleased with Yuuki and Sylvia's improved relationship.

"Is this the so-called hate and care? They may look like foes, but they really care about each other." Ella nodded in agreement.

"It's pretty quiet here and free of unauthorized individuals. Does this clothing store have a particular history?" Elena looked around, but there were no random individuals in the surrounding. They just stood outside the shop and didn't dare to crowd.

"This clothing store is actually Lady Hong's. No one would dare to cause trouble at her place. However, it seems that she is not here. Too bad, she missed this rare opportunity." Lynn stared at the nearby door and shrugged her shoulders slightly.

"Then come with me to try on these dresses, girls." Elena led the girls into the dressing room, but she paused. "Little one, since there are no fairy dresses here, can you stand guard outside with the little beasts?"

"Ah, oh... Alright then." Nell loosened her shoulders and landed on Vanessa's back.

After that, Elena and the girls went into the dressing room. However, there was only silence there.

Nell just snorted softly because Elena had obviously set up a barrier there.

"Uhm... I can see you have great respect for the Goddess of Light. I used to think that divine beings were lofty and beyond reach for mortals like me. However, I have a different view now." Lynn sat on a bench and spoke in a whisper-like voice.

"We used to appear among the mortals without anyone knowing our true identities. You will never know. Perhaps, the trees, birds, or even random passersby are the divine." Nell replied casually.

"I see..." Lynn nodded in understanding. She then opened up a light conversation while the opportunity was still there.

A private conversation with a Goddess was rare and could not be missed. Yet, Lynn was utterly oblivious that anyone outside the shop could not hear all these conversations.

Meanwhile, Sylvia had just tried on her new dress. She was now clad in a fancy black dress with an open back. So, she didn't need to bother anymore because of her tail and wings.

"Why are you so casual about taking off your clothes in front of me and acting like you're not ashamed at all?" Yuuki felt a little nervous for some unknown reason.

"Huh? Why should I be embarrassed? We're both girls. Hum-mm~ How do I look now? Do I look more beautiful in this form or the previous me is better?" Sylvia looked at herself behind the mirror and tried several poses.

"If I had a choice, I prefer your previous form. Your current form takes quite a bit of space. However, my opinion might change if you could hide your wings like the Goddess of Nature's innate ability." Yuuki put her hand to her cheek.

"Eh? The Goddess of Nature can do that?" Sylvia was intrigued. She found a clue to solve her current problem.

"Yup, I didn't know that at first. However, the Goddess of Nature once accidentally made a tattoo of her wings visible on her back. It was just a glimpse, but I asked her and she confirmed it was her wings." Yuuki tried to recall some things that happened a few days ago.

"Oh~ It seems, I need to ask her for enlightenment." Sylvia put her hands together with an excited smile. She then glanced at the dresses in Yuuki's hands. "Hehe, why don't you try it and let this big sister see you in a fancy dress."

"I-" Yuuki hesitated because the one before her was a naughty devil.

"Hehe, there's no need to be embarrassed. You're wearing underwear, right? I won't be stupid for doing something you don't like. Don't worry." Sylvia put her hands on Yuuki's shoulders.

"..." Yuuki considered his decision for a moment and ended up sighing. She then took off her white robe and tried on one of the fancy dresses.

"Look at you now, don't you look prettier in this beautiful elegant dress? You look more mature and have character. It's far different from your modest white robe. This way, every eye will be attracted to you." Sylvia commented while stroking her chin like a wise sage.

"Even if I can't deny it, I will still keep my white robes in my Space Bag." Yuuki neatly folded her white robe and hugged it.

"Yeah, it sure has a lot of memories. You need to keep it well." Sylvia nodded in understanding.

A thought of what happened a while ago came to mind. Sylvia then decided to bring up the previous topic again since the current situation was ripe and appropriate. "Uhm, it's just the two of us in this dressing room right now. Can you tell me what you wanted to say a while ago? I feel like it means a lot to you, and it concerns me."

"Hmm?" Yuuki looked left and right with her magic vision active. There were no outsiders, and no one would eavesdrop. She couldn't detect the next room, but she just ignored it because there might be Elysia and the others.

After confirming that, Yuuki gestured for Sylvia to come closer.

"Please listen to me until the end and please don't cut me off in the middle, okay?" Yuuki asked for reassurance.

"Okay." Sylvia nodded with a slightly tense feeling due to Yuuki's solemn expression.

"Hm, I'm aware of what happened to you on that mysterious island. You know what, it was really fatal and a big mistake on your part. You were up against a powerful accursed creature, but you were genuinely fortunate that Ely and the others came right in time to save you.

Are you aware of the weight of your selfish decision, and what might happen if you fail to be rescued in time?" Yuuki's yellow eyes looked straight into Sylvia's red eyes.

"I know I was wrong and deeply regret it. No one ever thought that it was the accursed's sealed area. I already apologized to everyone, right? I also apologized directly to Ely. You know, Ely didn't scold me or punish me like what my father would do. She just smiled tenderly and hugged me because she managed to come just in time to save me." Sylvia put her hands on her upper chest with complicated feelings.

"I'm glad you understand the gravity of the matter. However, that's not what I want to tell you right now. Just imagine, what might happen if you fail to be rescued in time? The Sea God's avatars even fall to the side of darkness. What might happen if you do fall to the accursed side?" Yuuki went behind Sylvia and whispered near the latter's ear. She wanted this devil girl aware of the terrible things that might happen.

"I, I, I don't want to be made into a puppet. But, will Ely slaughter me or save me if that happens?" Sylvia questioned that in her mind. But, she didn't dare to imagine it any further.

"Ely and the others will obviously save you in the end. However, you can make Ely change in the process. She already sees you as a friend, right? I want you to reconsider every decision you make because there is cause and effect behind it all." Yuuki gave a slight conclusion.

"I'm aware of that, but what do you mean Ely will change because of me?" Sylvia frowned.

"The virtue girl who is full of kindness will become angry and may destroy everything on that mysterious island. Do you have the heart to make the angel of goodness to become an angel of doom?" Yuuki questioned that with an emphasis on the last point.

"..." Sylvia was silent, but she couldn't imagine the ever kind Elysia becoming the evil Elysia. She shuddered to visualize that rough image in her mind.

"Hum, I just want you to understand. If you do something stupid again and decide not to listen to Ely's or the Goddesses' requests even though you know it's for your own good... Then I'm the one who won't forgive you. If you die because of your stupidity, then you will be resurrected and I will send you into afterlife with my own hands." Yuuki went in front of Sylvia and clenched her fists with a solemn expression on her face.

"I understand. Thanks for telling me." Sylvia put on a pitiful look.

"Good. That is my duty as Ely's good vassal." Yuuki nodded in satisfaction.

Yet, Sylvia suddenly smiled because she had finally noticed something else. "Hehe, I didn't know that you cared so much about me, Yuuki. Is this the so-called coy and expensive sale?"

"What kind of weird parable is that? Anyway, it's all for Ely, okay? I don't want you to have a bad impact on her, including making her worry because of your stupidity. It doesn't mean I care so much about you or anything, alright?" Yuuki conveyed that with a flustered heart. She then left the dressing room in a hurry.

"Hehe, even if it's true, you just don't want to admit it~" Sylvia chuckled and carried all the dresses out. She wanted to buy it all for herself and Yuuki too.

She then glanced at Elysia and the Goddesses at the checkout counter.. It was regrettable that she didn't come with them to the same dressing room.
