Chapter 187: Day 9 IV - Deceived

'Heheheheh' a slightly evil smile crept up my face which made the rabbits shiver in fear.

"Yes... I go by many names, but one of my most renowned titles would make even the gods shudder... I am Pandora, the light goddess"

Even though I could see some confusion in their eyes, I knew that I had succeeded, yet to just add fuel to the fire, I lifted my arm before raising my index finger and creating a golden Rubix cube with my arcane magic. 

The Rubix cube would constantly shuffle and turn in many different combinations while slowly ascending to the sky.

Suddenly, their ears perked up and my voice sounded within their ears.

"This is called a Rubix cube and in the heavens, it is known for being one of the most powerful imprisoning items. I had imprisoned many angels with power beyond anything you can imagine" I smiled and allowed the Rubix cube to slowly descend towards my palm until it finally fell into the center of it.

Seeing my display of magic. for some reason, the rabbits became even more trusting of me, not that I did not see this coming. In a world where they were probably being suppressed by someone with much more power than them, I could understand why they would become so trusting of someone who promises freedom, especially after showing them something that they had never seen nor heard of in their entire lives.

"W-Will you help us?" One of the smaller rabbits stuttered, making the larger rabbit glared at him with a mixture of shock while holdings small hints of hope

"Of course" I smiled back warmly before my feet started to hover above the ground.

All the rabbits looked at this scene in shock

'Flight? She has no wings, how is this possible?'

Seeing their surprised glances, I finally realized something that had been bugging me for a long time. Except for that one time where I had seen Juilam standing on thin air, I had never seen a human fly before, and since I had not flown in front of anyone before since I found moving on my feet a lot faster, I did not get any reactions from anyone other than these rabbits.

'At most, I've seen the humans propel themselves using magic, not actually flying.' I was quite confused, but I did not show it and simply hid it behind the demonic smile on my face that made even the golden light around my body not feel that bright anymore.

With the golden light dimming, the rabbits shivered while every single beast within a 100-meter distance felt a shiver down their spines. Simultaneously, a strong sense of danger fell on them with the weight of a mountain.

"However, to help you, I need you to tell me what exactly you are protecting" My smile returned to being normal, however, due to it being so much better than the demonic smile, while also being combined with my 'heavenly' beauty as I like to describe it, they could not help but feel a warm feeling within their hearts.

"Of course, my Goddess!" They all replied with voices that seemed to be slightly too loud, making the other beasts in the area flock around us.

Even though they had flocked around us, they did not ask any questions and simply watched while following me and the leader of the rabbits towards their so-called 'heavenly tressure' that had fallen out of the sky.

After walking for 5 minutes, I had a strange feeling that this walk would be a little long.

"How long will we be walking for?" I asked

"Until the sun rises"

'...'

I could not help but look up and feel my smile twitch.

There were two reasons for this. Reason number one, looking at the sky, it would probably take a few more hours for it the sun to rise. The second reason was also quite simple. I had not realized it was night.

I had been talking this whole time about the heavenly light falling upon me, but apparently, that was just lunar light which either meant, to them, I looked like a lunar goddess rather than a light goddess.

While inwardly cringing, I quickly waved my hand in the air and created a cup out of pure mana before grabbing a bottle out of my storage ring and pouring myself a glass of wine.

The strong aroma of the wine made all of them freeze for a second before looking at me with slight worry and inwardly asking the same question at the same time.

'She is going to drink that?!'

Clearly, they did not know the scent of good fucking wine, or right now they would probably be licking my feet for a single drop of it.

"Why don't we speed up?" I raised a half-filled glass of wine in the air as I looked at the rabbit who had been leading us this whole time.

"How fast?" It asked with hesitation.

"How fast can you run?" I retorted and waited for its answer.

The rabbit widened its eyes before looking at all its subordinates with traces of shock as if saying 'she wants to run that fast?', but it did not voice any of its opinions.

"Should I go as fast as I can?" It asked with traces of hesitation

"Sure" I shrugged while allowing lightning to flow throughout my body, but no escape through my skin.

My eyes immediately started to shine gold and instead of having blue electricity crackling within the whites of my eyes, instead, there were semi-gold lightning bolts embroidered with hints of silver and blue.

My mastery of the lighting element was way beyond my current level of power so something as minuscule as powering my own body without showing it to the outside was like walking. It was almost an instinct at this point and I did not even know its full capabilities yet.

The rabbit also covered himself in lighting while the rest of the rabbits enveloped themselves with the wind. Almost every beast that was around me, no matter if they were currently stronger than my base power not had at least a spell that would increase their movement speed, which told me one thing. They were used to being preyed on and so, all of them had developed spells that would allow them to escape. It was simple evolution, if you cannot fight an enemy head-on, you will have an evolutionary trait that will help the species survive in the long term.

A few seconds later, they all started to dash in a particular direction, making me look at them with eyes filled with curiosity and slivers of evil intent.

The next second, my body flickered and a gust of wind was left behind as not even a trail was left behind the wake of my speed.

After running for around 15 minutes straight, they finally all stopped a certain area.

All the beasts stopped next to a podium, however, one could see several cracks around it that constantly shifted around flashing a multitude of over a thousand colors, ones that were not known to man, ones that were, and ones that the human eye simply could not see with the naked eyes.

The beasts looked around with wariness until they saw what they were hoping would not realize their presence.

A huge Lion with black fur and a magnificent blue mane appeared to walk right out of the shadows. The beasts, while at first were completely calm after knowing they had the 'goddess' on their side, were now panicking due to not finding her.

Yet as if the goddess herself had heard her pleas for help, a golden light flickered to the middle of the beasts with the sound of her foot creating a thud as it touched the ground.

'Oh crap, forgot to control my weight' I could not help but sigh in annoyance, yet I still sipped from the glass of wine as if nothing had just happened.

"You lowly beasts dare bring a human here!" The blue-maned lion roared causing countless gusts of wind to almost make some of the smaller rabbits fly off from the wind pressures alone. Yet, I still stood there with my divine aura protecting me from whatever provocative act he was trying to pull. 

The thing that really had me be surprised however was actually the species of the lion in front of me.

'Does he not look familiar?' I asked and narrowed my eyes as if I was searching for something.

[He really does...]

'What's his race' I asked while taking another sip from my wine glass.

[Blue-maned flame lion]

'hmm... What is his power level?'

[Around 130k]

'130k?' I could not help but look at him with disbelief

'Oh well! If I can't remember it, it must not be important, right?' I shrugged before waving at the Lion who seemed to have become slightly stunned by the nonchalant gesture

"Yo! How ya doing?" I asked with a smile.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Do you not know what I am?" The lion sounded more curious than angry

"Blue-maned flame lion, right?" I tilted my head to the right as my eyes shone with glints of fascination.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Goddess. This is one of the overlords of the forest. He is considered powerful among the forest beasts and is known for being able to take on one of the peak Gaseous stage humans" the rabbit explained while kneeling.

"Really?" I looked at the lion wanting him to confirm what I had just heard.

"Yes..." The lion was almost speechless 

"Good, I'll need you for something" my bloodlust flooded out of my body while being unfused with uncontrolled battle intent and surges of silvery-golden lighting bolts.. At the same time, the glint in my eye had turned even more malicious as the same lighting began to crackle around my body, almost identical to the god of lightning from my dreams, just on a much smaller scale.
