Ethel got up from under his butt and saw Ross still deep in thought. She sneered, "Looks like that girl is very important to you, Ross. Instead of thinking about all that nonsense, why not take her to experience the realm of the gods and make it an unforgettable experience for her? Aren't gods what mortals yearn for most?"

"The realm of God? Unforgettable?"

Ross slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "I've got it!"

Although she didn't know what Rose had gotten, Ethel just scoffed and continued working.

Ross didn't pay attention and continued to think.

Unforgettable memories, the realm of the gods...

A plan gradually formed in his mind that Celia probably wouldn't forget.

……

Costa City, Day Two.

Theoretically, today is Celia's birthday.

She didn't choose to go to the game today.

Because Ross suddenly sent her an emergency promotion plan.

The plan was for her to stay in her room for the next two days, focusing on cultivation and improving her strength in preparation for the heretical sect's next move.

And to prepare for the far north after the competition.

Celia didn't say anything, but nodded seriously and immediately got up and entered a meditative state.

Before leaving, Benovia asked, "Celia, aren't you going to watch the game?"

Celia shook her head. "I'm not going."

"Okay, should I bring you lunch?"

"Yes, thank you."

“Okay, by the way, are you free tonight?” Benovia asked.

Celia recalled Ross's plans for the evening. "I think so, why?"

"Oh, it's just that we didn't celebrate after we successfully advanced. I'd like to take everyone out to celebrate and get something to eat."

Celia nodded: "Okay."

"Then it's settled."

"Uh-huh!"

……

The day passed quickly in meditation. Celia mostly meditated with her eyes closed, resonating with Ross using her mental energy, following Ross's method.

Although Celia didn't know why she had to cultivate in this way, she felt that her spiritual power seemed to have increased, so she didn't ask any further questions.

Aside from meditation, I would go out for some fresh air and look down from the hotel balcony at the bustling traffic below.

And so, it came to 7 p.m.

It should actually be evening in Shining City. The sky over Koster is still bright, and the sun is still high in the sky, not setting for at least two hours.

However, the members of the Saintess Squad didn't care.

Benovia and the others arrived at the location early on, and then contacted Celia.

"Come on, the address is...we've arrived!"

"Okay, I'll be there soon."

After replying to the message, Celia went to report to her mentor, left the hotel, and went to a restaurant not far from the hotel.

Following Benovia's instructions, we arrived at a room on the second floor of the restaurant.

When the room door opened, Benovia and Anko, who were standing on either side of the door, raised the flowers in their hands.

Happy birthday, Celia!

Celia was stunned.

She stared blankly at the meticulously decorated room.

Around the dining table were many flowers that were lifted up by magic and floated in mid-air, together forming the words "Celia" and "Happy Birthday".

Doris's spell, "Singularity Fire," was used to decorate the ceiling, which, together with the demonic energy from Phil that was thrown out of his body but controlled under the ceiling, created the appearance of a starry sky.

The curtains in the room were drawn, making it appear as if it were nighttime.

The girls had also prepared a cake, bouquet, and greeting card for her. The food on the table hadn't been served yet; it was probably waiting for her arrival.

Benovia presented her with a flower wreath and handed her a card: "This is a blessing card I prepared for you. Wearing it will make you feel good every day!"

The blessing card contains runes that have the effect of calming the mind. The magic of the runes comes from the card itself, which is a specially made card using magic crystals and other materials.

"Thank you, Benovia."

Anke walked up to her and gave her a golden apple, saying, "Legend has it that only the most beautiful goddess can possess a golden apple. This is my gift to you, a 'golden apple,' for the most beautiful Celia."

“You are all more beautiful than me.” Celia blushed slightly as she accepted the apple, which had been dyed gold with a special medicine. “Thank you, Anko.”

Phil said apologetically, "I don't know what you like, so I can only give you a pure heart. I hope you can remain pure forever, just like a pure heart."

"I love everything you gave me, thank you, Phil!"

Doris finally walked over, snorted, and said, "I see you always wearing ordinary clothes, aren't you tacky? This is a gift for you, a robe made of Dreamweaver Spider silk. There are no runes on it yet, you can add them yourself when you get back."

Dreamweaver Spider Silk is a high-grade clothing material with excellent magical compatibility and great toughness. It is compatible with most materials and can be used to inscribe runes without worrying about damaging the clothes.

"It's too expensive..."

"You accept other people's items but not mine?! It's just a few hundred gold coins, what's so valuable about it?"

"Okay, thank you, Doris."

"Humph!"

Doris proudly raised her head, but couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile.

Chapter 326 Ross is protecting Miss Saintess

After accepting the girls' gifts, there was a knock on the door.

As Benovia said "Come in," the restaurant's waiters brought out dish after dish, some of which Celia recognized, such as caviar and salmon slices, and many others that she couldn't name, which seemed to be specialties of the Northern Alliance.

Looking at the dazzling array of dishes, Celia couldn't help but ask, "Benovia, how much did all this food and preparation cost? I'll get it for you."

Benovia smiled slightly, "This is a birthday party the four of us threw for you. It wasn't expensive, so don't worry about it."

Celia felt that Benovia's "not expensive" might be different from her own "not expensive," just like Doris casually mentioned a high-grade Dreamweaver Spider Robe worth several hundred gold coins.

If it were Celia, she definitely wouldn't be willing to buy it.

The unknown threads she obtained in Jonathan's ancient ruins remain unused because she cannot afford a mage's robe capable of holding them.

Doris probably noticed this, which is why she specially sent her this dress.

Celia's attitude towards Doris has changed considerably.

She hadn't expected Doris to be so perceptive.

Speaking of which...

Doris provided a lot of materials for her own magic puppet...

Celia thought for a moment, took a sip of her juice, and looked at everyone: "Thank you everyone, I'm so happy! Let's work even harder to win the championship!"

Doris: "A mere championship is within my grasp!"

Benovia: "Then we need to do our regular training next."

Anke: "Okay, let's start tomorrow and try out the new auxiliary medicine I've been developing recently."

Phil: "I have no objection."

"I……"

boom--! ! !

Just as Celia was about to say something, a violent explosion suddenly rang out, followed by the entire building shaking violently.

The girls quickly got up, went to the window and opened it, and saw flames shooting into the sky in the distance, forming a huge mushroom cloud.

"That direction... seems to be a slum?"

Benovia glanced at it and said, "It didn't reach the slums, it was on the edge of the slums. It must have been a chamber of commerce building that exploded."

Doris glanced at it and pursed her lips: "It's just a minor explosion. I guess some business association was researching some potent drug and accidentally caused the explosion."

"It could also be a pagan attack."

"It must be quite lively over there."

"I don't know if there were any casualties..."

"This has nothing to do with us. We can't meddle in other people's business right now. Let's continue with the dinner!"

"makes sense."

The curtains were drawn, and the girls returned to the table.

Despite the sudden explosion that occurred midway through the birthday banquet prepared by the saints, Celia enjoyed her meal immensely.

but……

For some reason, I always feel like something is missing.

As the time slowly approached nine o'clock, the girls, having eaten and drunk their fill, returned to the hotel.

According to Ross's training plan, she must begin meditating at nine o'clock.

So after returning, she greeted Benovia and the others, then lay down on the bed and entered a meditative state.

"Speaking of which, Lord Ross didn't seem to be here during dinner..."

"I went and took care of a bit of trouble."

Ross's image appeared in Celia's mental space.

“Trouble? What trouble?” Celia asked.

Ross laughed and said, "After you all went into the hotel to eat, some restless heretic started to stir up trouble and prepared to destroy the hotel and bury you underground."

Celia's eyes widened: "What? Really? Is it the Arctic Blood Alliance?"

"No, it's the Deep Sea Mutual Aid Association."

"The Deep Sea Aid Society? The Deep Sea Aid Society has come to the Northern Alliance?"

"Yes, you have repeatedly thwarted their plans and destroyed their strongholds. They hate the Holy Court to the core. Your portraits are probably already circulating internally. That was a good opportunity."

As Ross spoke, he revealed to Celia how he had switched the devastating magical bomb.

Celia quickly realized that it was lunchtime and that's how the explosion happened.

"So... Lord Ross wasn't here just now because he went to stop the heretics of the Deep Sea Aid Society? And he even blew up the Deep Sea Aid Society's stronghold..."

"Pretty much. At least let you have a meal in peace. We can't have accidents every time we go out, can we?"

Celia was touched, but when she heard Ross say that every time she went out, something unexpected happened, she immediately retorted: "How could that be? This time it was a plan by the Deep Sea Aid Association. That Deep Sea Aid Association was clearly lying in wait around our hotel. They only ran over when they saw Benovia making a reservation at the restaurant."

Ross smiled and nodded: "Yes."

The girl was furious.

But I don't know how to refute it.

After all, Ross said "yes," which meant he was agreeing with her.

But this agreement is infuriating!

So, in a fit of pique, Celia decided to enter a special meditative state.

That is, to resonate with Ross's mental power.

The resonance process was much smoother than with the divine fragments, and the spiritual power of both parties quickly reached a state of resonance.

Afterwards, Celia meditated to absorb magic power.
