Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint.

Chapter 692 Hmph, you really think I need you to run away?
Where is Elena?

"Oh, she broke free and ran away."

Melina looked at the innocent-looking Celia in front of her, hesitant to speak.

After a moment, he sighed and shook his head.

"Forget it, let them go. I didn't expect that you, Celia, would make a name for yourself among the elves after disguising yourself."

"Small idea."

Celia waved her hand, very modestly.

"This is no small matter. Although the elves are generally considered the weakest on the continent, they are still a vast empire. It is actually very difficult for our people to infiltrate the elves. The only reason we can get information is because they are not tight-lipped. Otherwise, due to the differences between the races and the special nature of the Elven Forest, they might be even more difficult to find out than the Kingdom of Phoenix."

Melina shook her head with a sigh.

"In this situation, you actually disguised yourself as an elf as a human and not only were you not discovered, but you also became the elf king's successor that they were preparing to groom. If only you hadn't exposed yourself."

Melina felt it was a great pity.

Imagine, the king of the elves is actually a holy maiden of the Holy Court in disguise—how shocking!

Even though this secret is unlikely to be revealed casually to avoid the elves' opposition, just thinking about it is pretty awesome.

Unfortunately, after finishing the cleanup of the beast tide, Celia grew tired of the disguise, contacted the person secretly protecting her, and then orchestrated this rather clumsy exposure incident. While running away, she revealed her identity to the Elven Royal Court.

Those in the know were all sixth-tier mages among the guards. Silya chose not to reveal it publicly, not intending to let other unrelated people know. If ordinary elves knew, two things might happen: either they would become even more fanatical about Silya, or things would backfire, and under the guidance of the Elven Royal Court, they would become even more hostile towards the Holy Court and Silya.

The Elven Royal Court clearly wouldn't allow the first scenario to occur.

Seeing Melina's regret, Celia shook her head: "I disguised myself to make things easier, not to cause trouble. If I continued to disguise my identity as [Celia] any longer, the probability of being exposed would be very high. This is just right."

Since what had happened was already done, Melina couldn't say anything more. She nodded and asked, "You've successfully obtained the divine relic, haven't you?"

Celia nodded: "Yes, Phil has already left with his belongings. I have nothing here. She should have returned safely, right?"

"Yes, she returned. However, it seems she didn't go back to Huijin City. She's still on the border. I don't know what her plans are. But the Holy Lord should have made arrangements, so it's not something I can worry about."

Melina said, looking at Celia with a smile, "Celia, you're going too far these days. This time you almost became someone's heir to the throne. Next time, will you become the emperor? So, now that things are over here, you should go back and reflect."

Celia raised an eyebrow: "What does Bishop Melina mean by this?"

"It's meaningless, Elbow, come back with us."

"Going back is fine, but not now."

Celia mounted her primordial mount (referring to her flying broom) and waved to Melina and the others: "If you can catch up with me, I'll go back with you, and you're allowed to use magic to intercept or capture me."

Melina was taken aback. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly saw Celia's expression turn serious. Then, Celia and her flying broom suddenly accelerated like a cannonball, flying away into the distance like a shooting star.

"So fast."

Melina was startled, then realized what was happening and raised her hand to cast a spell in an attempt to intercept Celia.

However, they failed to intercept her; Celia flew faster than the speed of magic!

In just a few seconds, she had disappeared into the horizon, leaving Melina and the others staring at each other in bewilderment.

A moment later, a guardian mage swallowed hard: "At that speed, if she had wanted to run, we wouldn't have needed to cover her retreat at all."

"Hmm, I didn't expect Celia to have such a hidden ability to escape." Melina shook her head: "Let's go back. Since she said she still has things to take care of, let her take care of them."

"Wasn't it because I couldn't keep up with her that I had to go back?" "If you can talk, then talk more." Melina turned around and glared at him.

"..."

Somewhere in the Elf Forest.

Celia, trembling, leaned against a tree and slowly squatted down.

The girl was pale and not breathing. After a long while, she finally exhaled and then began to breathe heavily.

Ross's phantom appeared beside her, smiling slightly. "I don't know who said before that they would never fly at high speed again?"

“I, I will never do this again.” Celia patted her chest, panting heavily. “I didn’t want to do this at all, otherwise I wouldn’t have contacted them to help me stop those elven sorcerers… If they hadn’t wanted me to go back, I definitely wouldn’t have asked Lord Ross for help.”

She paused for a moment, then said firmly, "This must be the last time. There will definitely be no more!"

"Is that so? Then we'll see," Ross chuckled.

After taking some time to recover, Celia was able to take off again.

"Next comes the final test: will that god awaken?"

"You will wake up, and soon, in the next day or two. They might even come looking for you again."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because your familiars don't know how you deal with monsters, but Harodias definitely does, and he will definitely come looking for you." Ross smiled slightly.

Celia immediately tensed up.

Just as she was about to say something, she sensed that someone had contacted her via her bracelet.

With a thought, Elena's projection appeared before him.

"Celia, thank you. I didn't have a chance to say it earlier, so I'm making up for it now."

"Don't be so polite with me." Celia smiled slightly. "Are you currently in the Elf Forest, or have you already left?"

"I'm still in the Elf Forest. I'll wait until everything is over before leaving, and I probably won't go anywhere else for a while. I'll stay within the Elf territory."

"Okay, keep it up. Try to reach the sixth rank as soon as possible. That way, you'll have leverage to negotiate with the Elf Royal Court."

"Hmph, they want to control my advancement, I'll get my revenge no matter what! Just wait for my good news."

"Alright, I hope the next time I hear news of you, it will be that you've reached the sixth rank, not that I'm seeing you in the royal court."

"Uh……"

Elena made no promises, just scratched her head, and then changed the subject, talking to Celia about other things.

"By the way, there were people watching over us before, so it wasn't convenient to tell you, but there's some news you might want to pay attention to."

"what news?"

"Regarding the Kingdom of Phoenix, they seemed to be making some unusual moves while we were clearing out the beast tide. Instead of withdrawing their troops when we were about to finish clearing out the beast tide, they became even more vigilant. I don't know what they're planning to do."

Celia was taken aback, but then she understood.

"I understand."
