My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 740: Stats Multiplier
Elena and Ai received exclusive training that differed from the others because of their spiritual body. Together with Megami and Zera, they received their exclusive training in the separate imaginary realm created by Elysia.
Everyone finished their divine affinity training and built immunity to the curse and corruption. Four days have passed since they started their closed-door training in the sealed space, including the chosen warriors currently training in the corrupted realm's extreme environment.
"Sisters, we will soon proceed to the last training session. Although this is the most important, it is actually the easiest because of your unwavering trust and faith." Elysia intertwined her fingers, looking at her pantheon members around her.
"We're fully prepared for it, Ely."
"With our current bond, even the strongest curse engulfed us, we'll remain unaffected."
"We've finally arrived at the final phase. We'll become one with our master again. I miss the feeling of becoming one with our master, our union..."
"Doesn't that sound a bit lewd?"
"What's wrong with that? Fusion is also union."
The girls expressed their willingness and readiness for the next training. They knew that their master would require their everything, and they would give all their strength to empower their master.
The purpose of this training was to measure how far Elysia could receive a power boost because the one that concerned them was not the Nirvana Great War, but what would happen a week after that, namely Sera's arrival.
The unmeasurable higher being that killed Elysia and revived her in the previous clash would arrive according to the appointment. At that moment the Nirvana Great War would be wrapped up regardless of the outcome.
"Have you decided on that?" Lifa put her hand on Elysia's arm.
"Yeah... we've reached a conclusion." Elysia replied with a nod.
Lifa took a deep breath and exhaled softly. "I see... but before we proceed, can you please pick my true body first, Ely?"
She was aware of the plan for the Nirvana Great War that they had not told He-Dao and the Heavenly Palace.
The Nirvana Great War would happen a week early, and it would only take place for seven days. All Elysium members would only enter the battlefield on the second to sixth day, and when the seventh day arrived, when Sera opened the interdimensional rift, Elysia would use the Nirvana Realm's barrier to capture the entire Corrupted Nirvana Realm and all nirvana abyssal demons into the Boundless Realm to end the Nirvana Great War once and for all.
"Mm..." Elysia nodded.
With that being said, Elysia deactivated her imaginary realm and other separated dimensions because the training session was over. All pantheon members went to the Nature Realm because Lifa had something to discuss.
The monster army had also finished their challenges, forging them into calamity monsters that were more terrifying than ever. However, they were dead tired, and currently recovering in the lake of life in their smaller form.
"O-oh, this is life! I'm alive again!" Lixue, the ice dragon, basked in the boiling hot water, but it soon cooled down, causing a lot of water vapor.
"Fckin hell. Don't use your ice to cool down the temperature of the lake of life." Leviathan complained as he loved it hot.
"Grr..." Gio, the earth dragon, moved his claw, pushing the ground where Lixue was relaxing, and put the ice dragon on the edge of the lake with a separate pool so the ice wouldn't affect the enjoyment of others.
"Hell yeah! I'm awesome!" The all-devouring whale jumped out of the lake's depths and maneuvered in the air like a dolphin.
"Keke, did you manage to become dominant or did you lose and get swallowed by your dark side, little buddy?" The calamity worm turned its gaze to the nearby hydra.
"Sshhh!" The nine-headed Hydra hissed in response, expressing his intent. Unfortunately, he didn't dare to try to intimidate anyone because most of the calamity beasts in this lake were much stronger than him.
"That guy lost to his dark side, but he is still himself, just more violent in nature." The Kraken smacked the Hydra's back.
The Hydra felt challenged, and it soon became a little showdown between the nine-headed serpent and the eight-armed octopus.
Fortunately, they were still in their smaller form, so it looked like two animals fighting for food.
The nearby calamity beasts soon surrounded the two fighting beasts as if it were an exciting spectacle. When the crowd grew to over a hundred calamity beasts, Gio, the earth dragon, and Cherub, the black dragon, stepped in to separate their juniors.
Both Kraken and Hyrdra received a heavy smack from the two strongest calamity beasts, and they immediately became obedient.
"Roar!" Cherub warned the others to disperse because the spectacle was over.
They should recover to full health in two days because the most exciting battle against the corrupted divine beasts would happen soon.
As the seniors had spoken, any disputes were immediately curbed under the senior's authority. The other calamity beasts then just soaked in the lake of life to recuperate and meditate.
Among all the calamity beasts, there were two terrifying beasts whose sovereignty no one dared to challenge. Gioragh, AKA Gio, the Tyrant Earth Dragon, and Cherub, the Void Black Dragon, held the highest authority, even higher than the army's overseers, feared and respected by all monsters.

Meanwhile, Elysia had just arrived in front of the Tree of Life, Lifa's true body. In front of everyone, the Tree of Life's primary root poked out from underground, and a tentacle-like branch poked out from the tree trunk.
"..." Elysia held Lifa's primary root as if it was a handshake, but the tentacle-like branch went closer to her face. It looked a bit slimy like a jelly, but it had a honey-like sweet scent.
"W-what? The tree is going into the tentacle genre now?" Sylvia pointed it out in shock.
"What do you mean by tentacle genre? That is the branch of life, the Tree of Life's true branch that could bestow a second life and revive the dead. It has been hundreds of thousands of years since mother took that out." Rhea nudged Sylvia's arm as she remembered in a whisper.
"Ely, I'll leave and entrust everything to you. You may feel the true essence of the divinity of life and death. Please accept my essence, the nectar of life." Lifa held Elysia's shoulders from behind as she gazed upon the nectar that was about to drip onto Elysia's face.
"I'm honored." Elysia felt a little shy because everyone was watching, but she could see Lifa had changed her mind and decided to lend everything to her.
With this, she could take a better feel and train her full might with everyone's full trust and faith. Therefore, she opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue to receive the nectar of life.
It was just a single semi-translucent drop of golden nectar. Just as it dropped to her mouth, she felt something inside her fluctuating. The feeling was just like the evolution she felt during her divine ascension.
When Elysia was too preoccupied by the sudden surge of divine power, Lifa's branch of life entered Elysia's mouth.
"Hngh!?" Elysia was shocked, staring at Lifa in disbelief, as did the other girls. Some of them covered their eyes with their hands because it looked a bit indecent.
However, Lifa only smiled gently in response. At the same time, the Tree of Life gradually dematerialized into particles, fused with Elysia.
Elysia looked down as the primary root in her grasp also dispersed. She then turned around, facing Lifa with a bewildered look. "That surprised me..."
"Fufu, just me isn't enough. Feel me up and master the divinity of life and death." Lifa held Elysia's laugh and granted a passionate kiss to trigger the God Mode Fusion.
Just like her true body, Lifa's divine avatar soon dematerialized and fused into one with Elysia, granting all of her power to boost Elysia's overall capabilities.
"..." Elysia hugged Lifa as the Goddess of Life smiled at her until Lifa's presence turned into light particles and disappeared, absorbed into her body.
She could feel that Lifa's true body, divine avatar, and other incarnations had disappeared from the Nature Realm. They were currently turned into two entities, the Tree of Life and the divine avatar in her soul realm.
"Wha, wha wa... is Ely going to kiss us for the fusion?" Erina covered her face with both hands, but she peeked out between her fingers.
"Yes, it's a necessary procedure. We'll arrive in the Elysian Realm, the true paradise within our master's soul." Nell held her cheeks, feeling a bit embarrassed, but she explained it regardless because Erina might be new to this.
"Uhm..." Erina was shy, but she somehow felt excited waiting for her turn.
"I'm next." Elena raised her hand, but she already stood in front of Elysia.
"U-huh?" Elysia didn't have a chance to respond, but Elena already sealed her lips passionately. Ai went right after and then followed by the others, in order according to the highest rank.
Elena and Ai didn't need this procedure because they were special entities, but they didn't want to miss the opportunity.
"I feel wrong... Give me a breath for a second..." Elysia covered her lips because her heart and mind were not ready to proceed to the next one.
Her heart was pounding like crazy and her face flushed red because no matter how many times she tried to adapt, this still felt embarrassing. She had thought about how to fuse with everyone for God Mode Fusion without the need for close contact, but nothing could work efficiently. Actually, just pressing their foreheads together could work, but almost everyone voted for the intimate, passionate kiss instead...
"Fufu, that leaves just me, Erina, and Mio. Take your time, Ely. I'll make you feel comfortable." Evelyn teased Elysia with a seductive smile.
She rubbed Elysia's back as she bit Elysia's ear, then slowly lowered Elysia's hand before she stole the kiss.
"I love you, Ely. See you again~" Evelyn kissed Elysia's cheek before she turned into particles and went into the Elysian Realm.
"Mhm, love you too..." Elysia murmured softly. For some reason, she felt like she was being treated like a baby that everyone wanted to cuddle and kiss.
If her memory orbs served it right, when she was still a smol baby in her previous life, almost all of her relatives wanted to hug her, kiss her, and mostly, pinch her chubby cheeks! It was exactly the same as now, queuing and taking turns...
"Please excuse me." Mio did it without hesitation, following her seniors' examples. The feeling was new, but she soon dematerialized and went somewhere unknown.
"Am I the last? Give me a second. I need to prepare myself..." Erina looked around, but everyone had already fused with Elysia. She wondered where they were going, but her turn had arrived.
"Phew..." Elysia let out a sigh of relief as it was finally not an aggressive girl. "Mm, take your time. I won't force it if you don't want to."
"We've long crossed the line... but, eh? Ely, your hair." Erina tried to prepare her mind and herself, but she gasped in surprise at Elysia's transformation.
Elysia's hair elongated and turned white, the light soon manifested into a divine dress and ornaments emerged to beautify the Divine Goddess.
"Everyone's elements and divinities formed into a grand unity. So, I lost my signature colors, except my eyes, is it?" Elysia formed a mirror with her magic, but she found her appearance not much had changed from the last time she used full-stack God Mode Fusion.
It was her mature self with the divine appearance of the higher realm. Her aura matched the interdimensional creature, and she could still control her power boosted by everyone very well.
Just as she was still observing her mesmerizing eyes, feeling like her gaze even entranced herself, Erina came to him, shy but brave to seal the bond for the fusion.
<| 14th Rank | Supreme Goddess of Mysterious Origin | Elysia | Female (N/A) | HP: 8.6M / 1E99 | MP: 23.1E14 / 1E99 | SP: 23.7E14 / 1E99 |>
<| Talent: N/A | Unknown |>
<| STR: 34K | DEX: 31.2K | CON: 5.3K | PER: 15.9K | ARC: 695.7K | VIT: 23.7E14 | LCK: 1777 |>
Elysia checked her status screen and was pleased by the increase in her stats. Her HP, MP, SP, and VIT only got minor increases because they got no multiplier, but the other stats were multiplied impressively even though they were still basic stats without buffs.
Although she could still be regarded as a glass cannon in the battle of Gods because her HP was relatively small, her magical power far surpassed He-Dao, the strongest being in Quadtria.
"Hehe~" Elysia chuckled softly. She chatted with her pantheon members for a moment internally before manifesting her absolute domain to train and test many things.
