Let them live with that regret for the rest of their lives!

She had originally thought that even with Nora's constitution, it would take until tomorrow to completely eradicate the pollution.

It seems I underestimated the other person's physical abilities; they were beyond what a normal person could possess.

"You look like you've been shopping all day. Would you like me to give you a leg massage?"

Hearing Nora's words, Elise, who was about to sit down, stood up again and even put some distance between herself and Nora: "Okay, but I need to go take a shower first!"

"I don't think it should have any smell."

"No."

Elise rolled her eyes at Nora, then turned and walked upstairs to her room.

She had already turned away and didn't notice the faint smile on Nora's lips, or the mockery that flashed in her eyes as she looked at her back.

Volume 1: Chapter 238 The Bold Miss Nora

As soon as Elise came out of the bathroom, she found that Nora had somehow entered her room and was casually looking around.

"You finally finished your quarantine, why aren't you exercising and instead coming to see me?"

"I already told you, I'd give you a foot massage!"

Wearing slippers, Elise's toes curled involuntarily. She gave Nora a strange look and said, "I'm starting to wonder if you have some kind of weird fetish."

“But since you’ve already taken such the initiative…” Elise walked briskly to the bedside and sat down, crossing her legs and swinging them gently, her slippers swaying back and forth with her movements.

"Come on, you brought this up yourself, so don't say I'm threatening you again."

"Ah."

Watching Nora's practiced movements, Elise couldn't help but recall the time she had bet on her. Back then, she would struggle for ages just to get Nora to massage her feet, and she wouldn't budge until she found a good reason. Nora was so much better now; she didn't even need to dig a hole for herself before Nora came over on her own.

Actually, Elise didn't really like having her feet massaged, but she just wanted to tease Nora a little. After all, she had done this many times before and failed many times. Now that she finally had the chance, of course she wanted to experience it properly.

Don't let Nora's usual aloof demeanor fool you; she's actually a very proud person. Having such a proud person massage your feet is a feeling that can only be described as blissful.

For some unknown reason, Elise trembled involuntarily, and a blush rose to her fair cheeks.

"what happened?"

"No, it's nothing, you can continue. I just need to contact Wendy about something." Elise said, snapping her fingers. A butterfly flew into the room from the window and landed on Elise's hair, resembling a butterfly-shaped hair accessory.

"Are you there? Are you there?" Elise said casually to the butterfly.

"I'm here," came Wendy's familiar voice from Butterfly, still devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

"I've found the key item to seal the body parts of the god. How's the rest of your collection coming along?"

"The collection is almost complete. Do you need me to come back?"

"No need, I happen to have some free time recently, I'll just come over to your place."

Upon hearing that Elise was coming to find her, Wendy's voice finally showed some emotion, with a hint of anticipation: "When you come, bring my clone with you too, I need to strengthen it."

"No problem, and while you're at it, could you also make me a clone?"

Elise still remembers the feeling of being transformed into an insect very clearly when she was in the Plague Order's stronghold. Although it felt a bit strange, it was incredibly powerful.

The insect-transformed body recovers extremely quickly; as long as it doesn't suffer a fatal injury, it can basically recover in a short time.

It can even effectively suppress the side effects of excessive use of the power of pleasure.

It just can't be maintained for too long, otherwise her body will really be assimilated.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come over."

Just as Elise was about to say something to Wendy, Nora suddenly tickled the sole of her foot. The unexpected stimulation caused Elise to make a strange sound.

Hearing the voice, Wendy was also puzzled: "What's wrong?"

“It was just a slip,” Elise said, as she tried to kick Nora.

However, her counterattack was no match for Nora. Soon, Nora grabbed both of her ankles, and it was too late for Elise to pull her legs back.

If someone were to suddenly enter the room, they would see that Elise and Nora were in an extremely intimate position.

Elise, covering her skirt with one hand, said to Wendy, "Um, I have something to take care of here. I'll contact you later."

After saying that, Elise ended the call with Wendy. Judging from the current situation, if the call wasn't stopped soon, who knows what Nora might do next.

Elise, who was originally sitting on the bed, was now forced to lie down because of Nora. The shameful position caused a faint blush to rise on her fair cheeks.

"That's enough!" Elise said to Nora in an annoyed tone.

She was the one who started it, but now she's bullying me with such a self-righteous attitude. This is so unlike Nora!

Hearing Elise's words, Nora tilted her head and said, "I was just defending myself."

"Then let go of my hand!"

"No, it's rare to see you so ashamed." Nora stared straight at Elise.

Feeling Nora's gaze, Elise felt that Nora was acting strangely today. When did she become so bold?

Could it be that after our in-depth conversation last time, my blockhead suddenly got it?

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and the maid came to call Iris for dinner.

The knocking successfully interrupted Nora's next move. From an angle where Elise couldn't see, she pouted somewhat unhappily before following Elise out of the room.

Seeing Nora heading straight for the restaurant, Elise seemed to remember something and said, "Aren't you going to wash your hands?"

"Didn't you already wash it clean? Then there shouldn't be any problem, right?"

“You…” Even Elise was speechless for a moment, but upon closer reflection, it sounded like something Nora would say.

Helpless, she could only push Nora to wash her hands before they went to the restaurant together.

The contamination in Sally hasn't been completely cleaned up yet, so there were only four people having dinner together.

Besides Elise, there's only the little maid, Nora, and Isabella.

Wendy's clones don't need to eat; the nearby insect nests provide her with a constant supply of energy. Vanessa, as a Heroic Spirit, also basically doesn't need to eat.

At the dining table, the little maid ate her dinner while keeping a close eye on Nora.

Before, I always thought that she was a cunning person. I always felt that she looked dull and unassuming, but she was actually very shrewd.

Now it seems that's indeed the case; the dining table is so big, yet he insists on sitting next to his young mistress.

Besides being annoyed by Nora's behavior, the maid also couldn't help but feel murderous intent towards her.

This feeling was just like when she faced the Faceless Man.

She is not yet clear about the specific reasons.

Sensing the maid's gaze, Nora smiled back at her. It was a cheerful smile, but Nora always felt that the other girl's smile seemed to carry a hint of provocation.

Volume 1: Chapter 239 Miss Wendy is Never Guilty

The next day, after tireless efforts, Sally finally used her spatial powers to transfer all the pollution out of her body.

She wasn't without her mistakes, but they were minor. At most, she accidentally sent some organs away. Fortunately, Miss Vanessa was always by her side.

Even if an organ is accidentally transported away, it can grow back through powerful life force.

Although she couldn't talk about the hardships she endured, she felt that her control over spatial power had improved considerably after this period of hard work.

Just as Sally was happily asking Elise to disinfect her and prepare to leave the isolation room, she also heard some good news.

That means she will soon transform into a beast of burden again, transporting Elise and the others from the Empire to the Principality of Claire.

In the past, it might have taken her almost a day to recover her magic, but after returning from the Plague Order's stronghold, she found that her strength had increased significantly, including her total amount of magic.

If all goes well, we should be able to bring everyone over in one go this time.

That means I might have to drink magic potions to speed up the recovery of my magic power.

The thought of the disgusting taste of magic potions made Sally's face turn ashen, and she instinctively covered her mouth.

"When did you become a believer in the Nine-Headed Virgin Mary?" Iris asked with a mocking look in her eyes as she looked at Sally, who was covering her mouth as if about to vomit.

Sally rolled her eyes at Elise, and just as she was about to say something, she saw Elise hand her a box of potions of various colors that looked rather strange.

"This is a magic potion that I had specially commissioned. The flavor has been improved and there are many different kinds. Consider it a small compensation for you."

"Do you know any alchemists who are willing to improve the taste of potions?"

"Alchemists, like magical artisans, need to burn through a lot of gold coins if they want to research something, so this kind of thing can be easily done as long as you have money."

"Ok."

Sally hesitated for a moment, picked up a bottle of magic potion, smelled it to make sure it didn't have that disgusting smell, and then gulped it down.

This bottle is strawberry flavored, and it tastes surprisingly good.

Leek, shrimp, and glutinous rice balls

Once Sally was sure everything was alright, she asked, "Shall we set off now?"

"We'll depart in an hour."

Elise's team has one more person this time than last time, namely Isabella.

The reason I didn't take her with me when we went to the cult's stronghold before was mainly because it was too dangerous there. This time, we're going to the Principality of Cleria, which is the headquarters of the Church of the Earth Goddess, so our safety can be guaranteed.

So she took Isabella to broaden her horizons.

Isabella knew perfectly well why Elise hadn't taken her with her last time; Elise had been diligently cultivating during this time, though her progress hadn't been very high.

She knew her talent was average, but she didn't want to give up just like that.

An hour passed quickly.

Everyone gathered in the garden.

Once everyone was confirmed to be present, Sally used the insects' location tracking to begin spatial teleportation.

It has to be said that with the bugs as a location point, her long-distance teleportation has become increasingly convenient.

There is absolutely no need to worry about being transported into the water or even inside a mountain.

Each teleportation node will have a special insect as a guide.

The teleportation was very fast; in less than a minute, everyone was transported from Elise's manor to the headquarters of the Church of the Earth Goddess in Cleria.

When I last came here, the area was still under construction, and there weren't many people who worshipped the Earth Goddess.

However, after being teleported here, Elise discovered that there were many magnificent buildings around her, and a large number of believers traveling between the various buildings.

Everyone's face was filled with piety, but Elise could clearly sense that there was a special worm inside each of their bodies.

Three. Slippery cooler* Dad? Spirit

Those insects could change their perception of the Earth Goddess, making them believe that the statue of the Earth Goddess in the church is undoubtedly the Earth Goddess.

Upon arriving here, Elise even felt that the power of faith flowing towards her had become much stronger.

She could even feel the blessing from the Earth Goddess on her ankles gradually becoming hotter, signaling that she was about to advance to the next level.

I should make sure to come here more often in the future.

Just as Elise was deep in thought, countless butterflies gathered, and then Wendy appeared before everyone's eyes.

Looking at Wendy in her elegant long dress, if Elise remembered correctly, this was the dress she had bought for Wendy years ago.

Wendy looked somewhat excited as she hadn't seen Elise for a long time.

I was so excited that I forgot something important.

Elise raised an eyebrow as she watched the clone that followed from the main path. She remembered that after she came here last time, she deliberately had Wendy change her clone from a loli form to look like herself now.

Why did the clone turn into a loli form again?

Following Elise's gaze, Wendy realized what was wrong.

Since Elise isn't around, she now sleeps with Elise's clone every day as a substitute for food. However, it's not very comfortable to hold Elise in her normal form, so she deliberately manipulates the clone back into a loli form, which is fragrant, soft, and comfortable to hold.

After learning that Elise was coming, she actually made a lot of preparations, but she forgot to turn her clone back into her original form.

"Aren't you going to explain?" Elise hugged her clone and squinted at Wendy.

However, Wendy is Wendy after all. Even in this situation, she could still maintain a calm expression, as if she had not done anything wrong, and said in a flat tone, "I am conducting some experiments to improve the strength of your clone."

This is a perfectly valid reason. Originally, she planned to strengthen her clones again when Elise came over.

Elise carefully examined Wendy's expression, but no matter how she observed, she couldn't detect even the slightest hint of guilt on Wendy's face.
