Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 484: Underwater Fishing

'Wha, wait, hey, why do I need to get punished? I'm innocent! I'll open the portal now, but don't take your bad mood out on me. Ely, please say something.' Nell was frantic because Elena's threat scared her quite a bit.

'Nell guides everyone to go on an underwater excursion without us. Let's just ignore her, Ely.' Elena suggested as if she didn't care about Nell's defense.

'...' Elysia just smiled helplessly. Even so, she decided not to say anything.

'Nee, Ely. Uuu, you're being mean to me too? Okay, I'll open the portal now. But please don't get mad or sulk at me, okay?' Nell didn't know what else to say. She immediately opened the portal without delay. Maybe, only her big sister could help her to explain to Elena and Elysia.

A golden white portal suddenly appeared before Elena, Elysia and Rhea. It instantly moved closer to pass through them.

The natural scenery of the sky turned into an underwater scene in an instant.

Elysia, Elena, and Rhea looked around for a moment. They looked at a group that was engrossed in their own activities. What the group did make them smile in amusement.

Nell flew closer to her big sister, but she chose to be quiet first, waiting for Elena or Elysia to speak.

"Hey, catch that fish quickly." Sylvia pointed at a fish that had fallen into a net trap.

"That's mine!" Vanessa rushed to pull the net and bit the helpless fish. After that, she brought it closer to the dark brown cat. "Uncle Theo, please grill this fish with a little chili and soy sauce. Ah, a little sour orange and seaweed too."

"Okay." Theo stabbed the fish with a stick, then he breathed fire at the fish.

After the fish was well cooked, he handed it to his wife to be seasoned before it was given to Vanessa.

Theo heaved a subtle sigh for the umpteenth time. He was treated like a chef and a stove because he could spit some fire from his mouth.

Since Elysia and the two Supreme Goddesses weren't around, these girls and Gio were doing as they pleased as if they had nothing to worry about. And again, the Goddess of Blessings or the Sea God didn't want to help with anything either.

"Just watch, I'm going to lure a rare mermaid." Sylvia pursed her lips to watch the white cat eat voraciously. She then threw her fishing bait out.

"That's what you're saying for the twenty-fourth time. But, you haven't even gotten one fish yet. At this rate, you won't be having lunch and dinner with delicious fish in this special ocean~" Yuuki mocked and showed off the whitefish he caught a while ago.

"Tch, you all will see why I'm once nicknamed the lucky girl." Sylvia clicked her tongue in annoyance. She felt hungry and really wanted to eat at least one of those sparkling fish.

But, she didn't get anything even though she had been fishing for more than an hour. The others were also stingy! They didn't want to share their catch with her.

The annoyed and pouty devil girl and a little sad looked back at the surrounding sea. Still, she accidentally noticed some existences that weren't there before.

"Eh? Ah! You're back, Ely, the Goddess of Light and the Goddess of Nature? I'm glad to see you back healthy and refreshed." Sylvia waved her hand with a big smile on her face.

Then, she took out a set of fishing gear from her Space Bag. "Would you like to fish with me? Sea God said that this special ocean has very delicious fish that can't be found anywhere else."

"Hoho, you guys are having fun. The fish here are so delicious, huh?" Elena muttered dryly and glanced at the little blue creature.

For some reason, Oceanid shuddered slightly at the sight of the Goddess of Light' golden eyes. Even so, he kept his back straight as if nothing had happened.

"Mm, we've had enough rest and are back in shape. That looks fun, let's go fishing." Elysia nodded with a tender smile. She grabbed Elena's hand and pulled the bad mood girl to go with her.

"Ah, nice to see you back, the Goddess of Light, Elysia. Please don't use that fishing rod because it's from Sylvia. You'd better use my fishing rod to catch fish." Yuuki offered all-white fishing gear to Elysia.

"Huh? What about my fishing rod?" Sylvia frowned at the fox girl.

"That's because the fish don't like you black fishing gear~" Yuuki smiled innocently.

"Meh. It has nothing to do with it. Fish are fish, they only live to eat until they die or are eaten." Sylvia replied.

As Sylvia and Yuuki started bickering again, Ella, Evelyn, and everyone else approached Elysia and Elena to express their concern. They just wanted to know and ensure that the Goddess of Light and Elysia were in top shape.

'Phew... Fortunately, no one asked about what happened to us. Let's go fishing, Sister Elena.' Elysia finally found time to sit down peacefully after receiving many worried words, especially from Evelyn and Ella.

'Okay, but, are we going to use this black fishing rod? Yuuki said that those sparkling white fish don't like dark colors.' Elena looked at the black fishing rod in Elysia's hand, then at the sparkling white fish around them.

'Ehm, I think it'll be fine if we change the bait to something bright and eye-catching.' Elysia thought briefly and came up with a solution.

'If you feel confident, let's give it a try.' Elena just obeyed and sat beside Elysia.

"Nee, Ely. Why did you decide to use my fishing rod even after Yuuki said it wasn't effective? You know, I haven't caught a single fish even after an hour of fishing." Sylvia asked with a slight pout. Even so, she wished something good came out of her friend.

"Ah, that, I'm sure there's no problem with your fishing gear. If your bait isn't effective, then let's try another one. Yuuki is just being a meanie to you Sylvi." Elysia replied with a reassuring smile.

"Wha, I'm not a meanie. I'm just telling the truth. Please don't misunderstand me." Yuuki immediately made a swift defense to himself. She didn't want to ruin Elysia's impression of her.

"Or maybe, Yuuki just wants your attention, Sylvi. After all, you often have adorable responses." Elysia glanced at Yuuki with a smirk, then threw her bait into the ocean.

"Eh?" Yuuki became astonished.

But shock and realization fell on Sylvia. She grinned and patted the fox girl's shoulder. "I see, you just wanted to talk and brainstorm with me. Why didn't you say so earlier and in a more polite or kind way? Or maybe, you just don't know how?"

"What? I didn't. Hmph! I'm not talking to you anymore." Yuuki snorted and went over to Evelyn. She went fishing again because she wanted to get some extra fish for Elysia's sake too.

Vanessa looked at her master, then at the sparkling white fish. She did that over and over again until, finally, a brilliant idea crossed her mind.

The best MasterChef was back, so those super delicious fish could become peak-level cuisine if processed by expert hands, right?

With that motivation in mind, Vanessa went to throw some net traps. She wanted to get more of those special fish for her masters too.

"Wow, Ely, it looks like your bait is very effective even though you use an all-black fishing rod." Evelyn commented in awe.

"En, those sparkling fish are instantly attracted to your bait." Ella gave an approving nod.

"Woah, the fish are immediately swimming to your bait, Ely. Looks like you're about to get a big catch." Yuuki gaped in astonishment, but she was only amazed at the end because the one she was talking about was Elysia.

"Ely, what bait are you using now? It turned out to be quite effective at attracting those sparkling white fish." Elena was a little surprised to see Elysia's bait surrounded by many fish, but none of them dared to eat it yet.

"It's just a small piece of fish meat similar to tuna. It seems the smell of fresh meat attracts them, but why are they just crowding my bait?" Elysia had no idea either.

That rare occurrence also caught everyone's attention, including the divine beings.

Rhea put her hand to her cheek in thought, but she could only come up with a solution. "Ely, try moving your bait a little. Don't just let it sit like that. Maybe the fish will immediately scramble for a share?"

"All right." Elysia just nodded and wiggled her fishing rod. She also pulled the string slowly to make the bait look more attractive when it moved.

At the same time, the bait Elysia was pounced on by several fish at once. They were literally scrambling to get a share as if they had been starving for several days.

Elysia was happy to see that, but just as she was about to pull the strings, a much larger sparkling white fish appeared out of nowhere and pounced on the swarming fish.

Most of the fish escaped death, but some were devoured by the big fish in an instant.

"Eh?" Elysia was surprised to realize the sudden change. The small to medium-sized fish suddenly turned into a fish three times the size of her body.

Elysia was instantly dragged into the deep ocean beyond the barrier when the big fish rebelled because of the hook stuck in its mouth. Her frail body couldn't hold the big fish alone.

"Ely!" Elena immediately hugged Elysia's tummy and pulled Elysia back to the magic carpet.

"Whoah..." Elysia took a breath. Her head was half drenched as she was almost drawn into the deep ocean.

"Please be careful. Underwater fishing is quite dangerous if you are careless. You're fishing for a fish three times your body size. Look, you got wet and almost dragged into this deep ocean." Elena advised while using her magic to dry Elysia's wet hair.
