Chapter 848 The Laughter of the G.o.ddess

"Good Evening."

The G.o.ddess of Smiles and Happiness descended the grand staircase with an ethereal grace that seemed to defy gravity itself. Her presence filled the grand hall with a radiant warmth, contrasting sharply with the ominous storm raging outside. She was tall and slender, with a beauty of a G.o.ddess that transcend mortal understanding. Her skin glowed with a soft luminescence, casting a gentle radiance that illuminated the room. Her hair cascaded down her back in waves of golden sunlight, s.h.i.+mmering with every movement like liquid gold.

Her eyes were pools of endless warmth and compa.s.sion, twinkling with an inner light that seemed to hold the secrets of the universe. They sparkled with happiness, drawing you in like a moth to a flame.

The G.o.ddess was adorned in flowing robes of iridescent silk, the fabric billowing around her like clouds in the sky. Each fold and crease seemed to dance with a life of its own, as if imbued with the very essence of joy and happiness.

Around her neck, she wore a necklace of gleaming pearls, each one a symbol of purity and innocence. The pearls glowed softly against her skin, adding to her celestial beauty.

Her voice was like music to the ears, a melodic symphony that echoed through the grand hall with a soothing resonance. It carried the warmth of a summer breeze and the gentle lilt of a babbling brook, was.h.i.+ng over you like a wave of tranquility.

Ren and the others then turned their gaze towards Pamela on the side. It was truly a sharp contrast.

"W-What? What?! Why is everybody looking at me like I'm a failure?" Pamela complained, her voice tinged with annoyance.

"Pamela," the G.o.ddess called, her voice filled with cheerfulness, each word dripping with happiness. It was a voice that could melt the hardest of hearts and calm the fiercest of storms, imbued with the power to bring joy and happiness to all who heard it.

Pamela flinched. "Uh . . . H-h.e.l.lo there, Felicity. Long time no see."

Felicity's eyes twinkled as she smiled. "A long time indeed. I see that you're still finding your way as a minor G.o.d. But don't worry, it will come, you ascension to a major G.o.d will come. Just as it did for me."

Pamela forced a smile, her unease palpable.

While Iraelyn whispered to Ren and the others, her voice inadvertently booming in the hall. "She's rather boastful, isn't she?"

In an instant, Iraelyn doubled over, clutching her stomach as laughter overtook her. "Y-you . . . what did you do to me?!"

"As long as you're in my territory, you're under my power and rule," Felicity stated calmly, her gaze piercing.

"This is bad," Elena whispered anxiously, her eyes darting between her companions.

Ren knew it too. They were in a situation where Azazel and the others were powerless against a G.o.ddess. If it came down to it, they might not be able to fight the G.o.ddess inside her own domain unless they could break the spell or nullify her control.

Ren rummaged through his thoughts, searching for a solution. There was an item he remembered, but it would come with a trade-off. "I guess I have no choice," Ren thought grimly.

If a battle broke out, he would have to use it. It was their only chance of way out from here.

"d.a.m.n it, if only I'm not in her domain," Iraelyn growled, attempting to fight the spell once more, but it proved too powerful, and she succ.u.mbed to laughter once again within seconds.

"Don't fight it, idiot. You'll just get exhausted," Desira advised, her smile belying the sternness in her tone.

"Then what are we supposed to do if we don't fight her?!" Iraelyn bellowed, her laughter ringing through the hall, echoing off the walls.

"Augh. You're the one laughing the most," Vivi commented with a smile, her eyes crinkling at the corners. "My lips already hurt from smiling too much. Just make it stop."

"Mine too," Azazel groaned, rubbing his cheeks where the strain of constant laughter had taken its toll.

"Hey! Be serious here! We're about to die!" Elena shouted at the others, her voice cutting through the jovial atmosphere like a knife.

"At least we'll die laughing and happy," Malifira chimed in with a chuckle, her tone light despite the gravity of their situation.

"You! Be serious too," Elena growled, her frustration evident in her tone as she tried to rein in the group.
