Elena looked at Elise with a great headache. Of course, she could tell that Elise was teasing her, but this woman could cry at any moment.
Elena was so preoccupied with how to comfort Elise that she forgot that it was Elise who made the first move last night.
"Now that things have come to this, the only way I can forgive you is if you work for me for free for the rest of your life."
"No way! You can't expect me to work for you for free!"
"So you're going to just walk away irresponsibly? Abandon me and the baby in my belly like this..."
"Hey, you're getting more and more outrageous!" Elena quickly interrupted. If Elise continued, no one knew how things would turn out.
The hurt on Elise's face disappeared; she seemed to have run out of the pretense, and a joyful smile reappeared.
Just as Elena was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
This startled Elena, and her first instinct was to jump out the window and run away. What if someone found out that she and Elise were in the same room...?
"If you jump out of the window, it will only arouse suspicion. You are my personal maid now. Isn't it your job to help me get up and wash?"
"Oh right." Despite being dressed in a maid outfit, Elena almost forgot her current identity, something that would have been impossible in the past. It just goes to show that her heart was definitely not as calm as it appeared.
Elena composed herself and opened the door. Standing in the doorway was a maid from the manor. Upon seeing Elena, she showed no surprise, but simply said softly, "Miss Elena, is Miss Elena awake? Her Majesty the Saintess has come to visit."
Tell her I'm coming down right away.
Upon hearing Elise's voice, the maid respectfully responded and turned to leave.
After closing the door again, Elena raised an eyebrow and asked, "They've come all this way, are you alright?"
"It's alright, the Holy Maiden is mine now."
"what?"
Although Elise had some suspicions based on her previous behavior, Elena was still quite shocked to hear Elise say it herself.
That was a saintess of the Eternal Church, and she actually managed to bewitch her.
She now understood why Elise had acted that way last night.
Volume 1: Chapter 104 It's Because of You
It took almost an hour for Iris to come down from the bell tower and into the reception hall.
After all, she still needs to shower, put on makeup, and change clothes, so her speed is considered quite fast.
Rumia, who had been waiting there, rushed over the moment she saw Iris, her eyes filled with undisguised affection: "Iris, you're here~"
The location was familiar, the scene was familiar, but last time it was Iris who took the initiative, this time it was Rumia.
8 Elena, who was following behind Elise, was still somewhat shocked after witnessing the scene firsthand, even though she already knew that Saintess Lumia had been bewitched. Elise reached out and gently stroked Rumia's head, as if she were petting a cute puppy. Rumia also squinted her eyes comfortably, not feeling insulted at all. In fact, if it were an insult, it would suit her tastes even better. "Have you taken care of the task I assigned you? No one should have discovered what's going on inside the base, right?" Hearing Iris's words, Lumia nodded obediently: "No one will discover the situation at the base, and the missing personnel have been replenished." At this point, a look of disgust appeared on her face, because the new recruits were basically insectoids. Even if she were charmed, it wouldn't change her likes and dislikes about most things. Of course, if Iris were transformed into an insectoid, Rumia would probably like it very much. Then Elise asked about Lumia's itinerary. As a saint of the Eternal Church, her visit to Seria was not just to attend a festival. Her main purpose was to eliminate Wendy, who had escaped from the ancient city ruins, and then to negotiate with the Empire so that the Church could preach here. However, this is impossible. There are reasons why the Empire does not allow the church to proselytize, and no matter how much the church pays, it will not succeed. "Just follow the church's schedule." “But if things go according to plan, I’ll have to return to the Holy Kingdom by the day after tomorrow at the latest.” Rumia tugged at Iris’s sleeve reluctantly. “I don’t want to be separated from you.” "Don't worry, how could I bear to separate you from me?" Of course, Iris wouldn't just let Rumia go back to the church like that. You must know that there are many powerful people in the church. They will definitely see that Rumia is bewitched. If Rumia's bewitching is lifted, then Rumia will definitely fight her to the death. That's why only a fool would send her back to the church. However, she cannot let Rumia disappear from the Empire's side. After all, she has been in contact with Rumia for a long time. If Rumia suddenly disappears, she will definitely become the target of everyone's criticism. Elise is planning a cult attack. Celia has plenty of cult members, though. Among them are some crazy and reckless individuals. With Elise's intelligence, she could easily find a group of weak but reckless cultists to attack Rumia, after which the saintess would disappear. As for who the church might suspect, that's none of her business. Iris's words reassured Rumia; as long as she wasn't separated from Iris, she would do anything. "You must have a lot to do today, so don't waste time here. Do the things I asked you to do well, and I'll give you a reward after you're done." Upon hearing about the reward, Rumia instantly showed an expression of immense excitement. It was unclear what she was thinking, but a strange blush appeared on her fair cheeks. Looking at Rumia, who possessed both holiness and a sense of depravity, Iris's lips curled into a pleased smile. Because there were still many things to take care of, Lumia soon had to temporarily separate from Iris. Seeing the other person looking back every few steps, Elena couldn't help but ask, "Isn't your charm a bit too strong?" "Want to give it a try?" Elise turned to look at Elena, a look of pleasure in her eyes that made her appear strangely beautiful. Having regained some of her memories, Elena decisively shook her head. Her intuition told her that if Elise used her charm on her, she probably wouldn't be able to resist at all. "I thought you'd be curious and let me try it out~" Elise said with a hint of regret. Just then, Wendy's gentle voice came: "I want to try." “You’ve already been seduced, and my seduction is practically ineffective against you.” Even though Wendy had been branded with the mark of pleasure, Elise knew very well that the mark wouldn’t have any effect on Wendy. Unless you completely give up resisting the brand, just like when you branded her in the first place. Ignoring Wendy, Elise turned to Elena and said, "Today is a rare holiday, so I'm giving you a day off." Normally, a holiday would be a good thing for Elena, but last night she had a relationship with Elise that went beyond friendship, so for the first time, she hesitated when faced with the prospect of a holiday. "Fine, I'll stick with you today." After much deliberation, Elena finally gave up her precious vacation. Elise seemed to have noticed something and moved slightly closer to Elena: "You're not feeling guilty, are you?" "After all, it was my fault. If I hadn't gone in and touched you, you wouldn't be here..." Upon hearing this, Wendy sniffed, a rare look of regret on her face. She shouldn't have gone straight back to her room after sending Elise back to the manor last night. If we could stay with Iris a little longer... Spirit Alliance & (Six) 玐咎"玐冷似澪&焐 But it seems too late to regret it now. "Yes, that's right, it's all your fault, so you have to take full responsibility." Elise wouldn't defend Elena; since Elena had already directly admitted it was her own fault, then it was her own fault! "Since you don't want to take a holiday, then come with me for a stroll. The city is busiest today." “I want to go too,” Wendy tugged at Elise’s sleeve. "Don't worry, I haven't forgotten you." Elise knew Wendy liked pretty clothes, so she planned to take Wendy to buy a few more outfits later. I promised to buy her a new one when her clothes got ruined last time, but I haven't done so yet. Elise didn't go to see Vivian. Today was the Spark Festival, and Vivian, as the emperor's illegitimate daughter, didn't have it as easy as Elise. Like Rumia, she probably had a lot of things to deal with. Speaking of which, I wonder how things are going on with Michael? Elise really wanted to watch the fireworks with her at night. Phosphorus Dream Cage Silk 〓 Noon Cold Umbrella Pomegranate Wine Volume 1: Chapter 105 Finding a Bargain Seria, abandoned street. Elena walked slowly along the familiar road and couldn't help but complain, "On such a rare holiday, why didn't you go to Golden Street or the market area? What are you doing in this abandoned street?" "As a native of the Jurassic region, do you know that during the Fire Lily Festival, Black City becomes very lively? Many things that cannot be sold openly will appear here." "I thought you would choose to enjoy the holiday." "We should definitely enjoy the holidays, but not now." During the Spark Festival in the game, the black market will spawn many rare items, including ancient relics. Remember, this isn't a game; items won't wait for you to buy them, and if you're late, they might be gone. 6. That's why Elise came to this place first. Because of the Spark Festival, the abandoned street was much more lively than usual, and many of the original inhabitants of the abandoned street were eager to participate, but few actually took action. After all, most of the people who come to the abandoned street at this time are people they can't afford to offend. Even though Elise had deliberately acted like an innocent young lady, no one came forward to cause trouble, which was a bit of a shame. After navigating through the intricate alleyways, Elise led her people to the black market. Not wanting to linger in such a crowded and unpleasant place, Elise activated her system vision as soon as she entered the black market, and immediately all the product information on the stalls appeared before her eyes. Elise quickly discovered a place with good stuff and led her people directly to a stall in a corner of the black market. The items on the stall were all dilapidated, including heavily rusted weapons and tattered armor. In Elise's eyes, these things all bore the prefix 'ancient'. In other words, these items may have originated from some ancient ruins. "Miss, is there anything you like?" the stall owner, shrouded in a black robe, asked Iris. “I don’t like any of these things. You should have something better.” Although the stall owner was somewhat surprised, he didn't waste any words and took out three items from his spatial ring: a pale gold ring that exuded a holy aura, a pitch-black demon horn, and a human skin. Seeing these familiar (props, Illusion) I knew that these people had unearthed some ancient ruins. Strictly speaking, it wasn't an ancient ruin, but a very small ancient battlefield. There were only three valuable things there, but for Elise, only two were truly valuable. "How much do the ring and devil horns cost?" The stall owner hesitated. He had originally intended to ask for an exorbitant price, but he had already witnessed the other party's discerning eye. If he quoted too high a price now, it would be disrespectful to the other party. "If you want both, then it'll be five thousand together." Emu X slipped without an umbrella, eight up (three) “It’s a bit expensive.” Whether it's the angel ring or the devil horns, the price is around two thousand gold coins. The stall owner said in a low voice, "Demon horns are fine, but angel rings are always in high demand and short supply, so I'll raise the price a little. I hope you can understand, miss?" Elise hesitated for a moment, then took out a card and handed it to the other person: "I'll take the things." Seeing the pained look on Elise's face, the stall owner smiled happily. He guessed that she was in a hurry to get the two materials, otherwise she would have gritted her teeth and bought them. Although the Angel Ring is extremely valuable and hard to find, it is also very dangerous. If one is not careful, the Eternal Church will take notice of it, so he is eager to sell it. After handing the item over, the stall owner continued, "Miss, why don't you take a look at this map? Maybe there's an unexplored ancient ruin hidden behind it. For just 10,000 gold coins, this thing is yours." Elise glanced longingly at the human skin in the other person's hand, but ultimately shook her head and said, "I've run out of pocket money, I can't afford it, goodbye." After saying that, Elise led her people away without glancing at the map again. After walking a distance, Elena couldn't help but ask, "Are those two things really worth that much money?" “If they were just materials, they might not be worth that much money, but what if I told you that both of them are ancient relics?” "That's okay." If those two ancient relics are effective, people will still buy them even if the price increases tenfold. Elena never expected that Elise would find such a treasure so soon after arriving here. Seeing Elena's curious expression, Elise smiled and said, "You'll find out what those two ancient relics are like when we get back." "Okay, what about that map made of human skin? Aren't you curious about what's on it?" "I'm not curious. All it records are clues to the Tomb of the Gods," Elise said indifferently. Maps were the most useless thing to her. "what?" Not only Elena, but Wendy also looked surprised. That's the tomb of the gods, the legendary place where the gods fell. It's said that entering it might lead to clues to becoming a god, or even divine inheritance.
