My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 741: Conclude the Training
Elysia practiced her divine laws and perfected the command of heavenly tribulation, ensuring her power could pulverize even the strongest abyssal foes.
More than anything, she created the fake Boundless Realm to fight against Sera in the simulation to ensure she could kill this mighty higher being.
Unfortunately, the obtained data about Sera was scarce and limited. As far as she could go, it was just Sera's third phase where she couldn't help but unleash her imaginary breaker divinity to prevent Sera's after-death counterattack and revival. But, she could no longer try anything further than that since she had no more data.
"I believe she still has more forms and phases, not to mention she has never used her final form..." Elysia clenched her fist as she knew very well that Sera would never be easy to deal with.
The best possible outcome was to befriend this higher being rather than be hostile. In this scenario, there was still a chance for a friendly encounter, not a deadly match like the previous one.
"Phew..." Elysia turned around, staring at the severely destroyed fake universe.
Although it was created by her absolute domain and imaginary divinity, if it could take place anywhere else, the level of destruction in this fake universe, could wipe out hundreds of worlds and destroy several solar systems. Nothing remained but cosmic dust and small pieces of the former planets and stars...

Elysia checked her current status screen where her stacked buffs were at maximum level. Unfortunately, the system broke down again, and some stats showed nothing but question marks.
"Well..." Elysia sighed as it couldn't be helped. There might be a limit to what could be measured in this world.
It had been three hours since she started her training, and it was time for them to finish their training. The intense extreme training for the Sacred Sakura's people also should be over soon. But before that, she checked on what her sisters were doing in her soul realm.
Unlike the exclusive training that enhanced endurance, mastery, physical strength, and magic, any exercise done in the Elysian Realm would strengthen soul power.
It might look like a common physical exercise, but they in the Elysian Realm weren't their bodies, the current them were soul essences. Therefore, besides Elena, the other girls went to the gym and training ground to take the opportunity to strengthen their soul power.
'My dear sister.' Elysia spoke to the sleeping Elena, but she received no response. Therefore, she deployed her divine avatar, Megami, to wake Elena up. "My, my... Lazy Elena, why are you the only one sleeping?"
"Uh-uhm... is that you, Ely? My soul power is already the strongest among them, so training like that is meaningless for me." Elena rubbed her eyes, but she remained lying lazily on the bed. She rolled to the right and hugged Elysia's spirit like her favorite cuddle pillow.
"I see. You've worked hard for the past four days. Sleep well, dearest." Elysia faintly smiled as she sat on the bed, rubbing Elena's head gently.
Elena enjoyed the caress and sweet talk, but she then realized something was missing. Elysia's spirit was still in her arms, but the other Elysia rubbed her head and the one who spoke was clearly Elysia. "Hm? Wait, your spirit is in my arms... Are you Megami, eh? Ely in control? Are your training simulations and experiments over, Ely?"
"Mm, it's finished. It's time for us to deactivate the God Mode Fusion. I wanted to remind everyone, but they seemed to still be busy grinding and farming more soul power." Elysia giggled. The others were still too engrossed in their exercises, and they obviously wished to stay a bit longer.
"It's only been about three or four hours... please let them have their fun a bit longer, Ely. Instead, I'll accompany you outside. It's about time for you to announce and arrange something for our people and those minions, right?" Elena immediately got out of bed, knowing she had an important task to do by Elysia's side.
"Mm, yes. Then, I'll leave Megami at your spot." Elysia nodded in reply before retracting her control from her divine avatar.
"..." Megami went pensive for a second. After Elena vanished, she went closer to Elysia's spirit, sitting in meditation.
"Heya! Sorry for not witnessing your awesomeness in your simulation, Ely. I watched in the first hour, but the bed's witchcraft and the warmth bewitched me to sleep." Elena emerged and coiled her arms around Elysia's neck, appreciating Elysia's divine beauty up close as she felt like she could never get enough.
"Mm, I asked everyone to keep themselves busy because, during the simulation, I went into deep concentration and could hardly hear anyone. It's okay to sleep a bit longer. You must be feeling tired." Despite saying that, Elysia already put her arms around Elena's waist. She spun around once, feeling happy for Elena's company.
"Not feeling tired anymore~" Elena smiled brightly. She then looked around only to witness the fake universe was destroyed beyond measure.
If it took place in reality, she was absolutely sure nothing within a radius of tens of millions of light years could survive the destruction. The suns and galaxies vanished, the stars were reduced to particles, planets were pulverized to dust, everything had lost its light, and no celestial objects remained intact.
"It was like the Boundless Realm, dark and eerie..." Elena trembled slightly as she watched the replay of their shared memories.
She knew Elysia took the simulation seriously, but the destructive power Elysia showed was extremely impressive. It sparked her awe and admiration as Elysia tore Sera apart.
"But, wow~" Elena's eyes soon sparkled as she gazed at Elysia.
"Fufu, did you access our shared memories. How about my performance in the simulation?"
"It's super impressive! I think you can defeat her right now."
"Mm, but I'm still not confident. I hope we can befriend her instead of having to fight to the death again..."
"It's worth trying, but we can't ignore the possibility. My gut feeling tells me that she wished to devour you when you were at your most delicious."
"Devour, huh..."
Elysia mumbled as she gazed upon the empty void. There were too many unknown variables that revolved around Sera and the Boundless Realm.
What exactly happened there? Why did Sera go into a deep slumber there? How did Sera get there? There are still many unanswered questions, but in their next encounter, she would discover the secret hidden behind Sera's presence and the Boundless Realm, considering the entrance was originally stored in her soul before Sera destroyed it and created a new one by excluding her access...
"Mua, you don't have to worry. We will always be with you." Elena kissed Elysia's cheek and smiled reassuringly.
"Mm, thank you." Elysia appreciated the consideration. There was no point in overthinking it now.
Elena was pleased with Elysia's calmness. She released Elysia and intertwined their hands together, looking at Elysia's god mode up and down. "Shall we fetch our people and those minions now? But, err... do you want to grace them in your current appearance, Ely? I'm not sure they can handle your aura and pressure."
"Please don't call our affiliates as minions." Elysia smiled in amusement as she shook her head. "It just can't be helped. I can't change my appearance in God Mode Fusion, but I can adjust my aura and pressure."
"That's more than good." Elena nodded in satisfaction as she felt Elysia's aura and pressure were no longer overflowing. It would sweep away those mortals like ants before a tsunami wave, but now it should be okay because the raging ocean became calm after Elysia adjusted it.
---
When Elysia and Elena went to announce the end of the simulation to the Sacred Sakura and the monster army, the Elysium girls just let out a sigh of relief at Elena and Elysia's conversation.
"Phew, master gave us more time to strengthen our soul power." Sylvia wiped her nonexistent sweat.
"Hum, it's an extremely rare opportunity." Yuuki resumed her martial arts training.
"It's rare because there are so few methods to nurture and strengthen soul power." Evelyn returned her focus to her yoga.
"And it's very rare to have so much free time during God Mode Fusion." Ella passed the table tennis ball.
"This is my first time, but what do you usually do during fusion, sister?" Erina returned the ball with a smash like a pro.
The ball moved fast and spun, but Ella wasn't slow either. The moment it made contact with Ella's bet, the ball went the other way, hitting her bust and bouncing back to Erina.
"Hmm, we will gather together to unite our focus in the palace for our master. The last time I participated in the God Mode Fusion was during the final battle against the Ruvoid in Vrelenia. Ball out. Points for Ella." Nell raised her pom-pom.
"Can it work like that?" Erina put her hands on her chest. Her breasts were pretty big and plump, but compared to Ella or Evelyn, despite sharing the same race as humans and being of equal age, she would be medium at best...
"Phew, good work. Your sword technique is quite beautiful and powerful." Morfina returned the sword to the rack.
"Likewise. Your swordplay is graceful like a sword dance of royalty." Lyla shook her head because she knew her sword mastery was not that great.
"Hehe, I'm flying faster than a jet, but my wings are sore now." Yae flew down, going straight to the soft mattress.
"Hmm..." Vanessa took a closer look at Mio's fierce muscles.
Among everyone, Mio was the only one with a big build and muscles. Even though it was Mio's second form, the battle mode, it still made her worry because all Mio did was physical training, whether it was in the outside world or here.
"Mio, you should consider training your magic. You have an affinity for magic even if you don't admit it." Vanessa decided to give a piece of advice.
"I'll consider it." Mio slowly put down the heavy dumbbells.
"You should really do it, junior sister. Have you ever heard about powerful fighters going bald? You'll lose your hair if you neglect magic training." Dory kindly reminded, remembering their master was so fond of long beautiful hair.
"..." Mio froze for a second. She subconsciously reached for her hair. It had already grown halfway down her back. As a fighter and bodyguard, long hair would only get in the way, but they were talking about the world of magic...
If it was magic training, she occasionally did it in her spare time, but her affinity was so lacking in that field compared to her physical strength, constitution, and physique.
"We have a few hours before our master deactivates the fusion. Let's move to magic training." Ariel nodded in agreement. She invited the nearby girls and they went to the training ground to train their magic.
Seeing that, several girls in the gym also went to the training ground because they also wanted to train their magic mastery.
In the Elysian Realm, they received twice the gain with half the effort unconditionally. Much more, they could strengthen their soul power with all kinds of exercises. So, on this occasion, they would do all the training to prepare for the Nirvana Great War the day after tomorrow.
