Ethereal Ascendance: A Journey of Transformation(Vol 5)

Vol 5/ Chapter 180: Deciding to Stay

The last job was to tell Elara through the Spirit Network about working with Earth people on magic. But who knew, even though it was already afternoon, I still couldn't get into the Spirit Network. I asked Serena and found out why.

"The space portal's been acting weird lately, and things in the empire haven't changed much. So Elara's been busy with stuff in Edenmere. Now she only checks in through the 'Spirit Convergence' magic every three days. You probably can't reach her now!"

Serena led the First Angel Legion to watch the space portal and keep an eye on outsiders. But when she heard what the Earth people wanted and how much they'd pay, she offered to help.

"We don't need to ask Elara about teaching Earth people magic. Edenmere has rules to prevent magic from leaking out, but they're mostly for medium and high-level magic. Low-level magic is okay. Maybe I can help!"

An angel legion has dozens of angels ready to fight! When I heard this, I felt relieved.

Edenmere's low-level magic is about the same as mid-level magic for humans. That should be enough to teach Earth people who know nothing for a month.

We agreed to work together in this unexpected way.

For the angels, this was a great chance to get high-tech weapons from Earth without spending much.

All the free angels in the Ilandra Dominion Empire and Crestvale Republic, including the First Legion and us three - me, Cyra, and Reed - started teaching Earth people light magic.

We taught at the Earth military bases near the space portal entrances on both sides - the Eldoria Continent base and the Shine Metropolitan base. We finished teaching around the same time the Earth military left.

The angels asked for personal high-tech fighting gear, lots of weapons and ammo, and science books as payment. These things were sent over during the month and given to the First Legion.

Next, we had to send everyone from the other worlds back home.

The first version of the "Eye of Galadra" was easy to use, like the one Nicola from world 14 had. You just turn on the mode Galadra set up and touch the crystal ball. Then it sends you back to your own world.

But Galadra said the celestial weapon doesn't have much magic power. So the person has to be on the Eldoria Continent, and their world can't be too far from this one.

"This thing is great! I'll ask Galadra to give me one when I get back!"

World 1, which is most like our world, was last in line. After everyone else went home, it was finally time for Feliciana from World 1.

Before she left, we talked for a long time, mostly about how our worlds are different. But when I found out Feliciana and Adrian from World 1 had already slept together, I was surprised to learn our worlds weren't as close as I thought...

"It's normal, I totally get how you feel! When I fell from New Parristol that night, I couldn't help myself and let Adrian have his way!"

Lucky Adrian wasn't next to me. Feliciana from World 1 saw how I reacted and patted my shoulder like she knew better. "You two are already dating, so this will probably happen sooner or later. Maybe one day it'll just happen naturally!"

After saying this, she put her hand on the crystal ball. Her body started to fade. Just before she disappeared completely, she said goodbye casually.

"Take care! Goodbye forever, other me from another world!"

"Goodbye..."

I quickly raised my arm, but what she said a few seconds ago kept bothering me.

Will that day really come?
