The disappointment on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by obvious pleasure. She knew that Rumia definitely wouldn't have time, so she came to show her face to give the other party the illusion that she was deeply bewitched.
Moreover, she was also testing the waters, trying to find out if Rumia knew her identity as the priestess of the earth goddess.
If she had known, she would never have let him go, since he had just been standing at the entrance of the Eternal Church.
Since they didn't attack her, it means that Rumia obviously doesn't know her identity. Could it be that she didn't bring any 'Heroic Spirits' related to the Earth Goddess?
However, as long as she isn't discovered, she's acting on her own initiative, and she can manipulate Rumia however she wants.
Elise's radiant smile attracted the attention of many. Although she had a bad reputation within the academy, her beauty was undeniable.
However, Elise merely glanced around casually, and then she was practically out of sight.
She walked briskly to the library.
Upon entering the library, I saw Flora dozing off at the counter.
Judging from her dark circles, she probably didn't get much rest last night. Just like Flora, whom she knew, she was probably busy modifying weapons for Elena last night.
Seeing that the other person was dozing off, Elise did not wake her up. Instead, she went behind the counter and sat down next to Flora, temporarily taking on the role of the library's administrator.
In the game, if you choose to become a student at the Magic Academy, you can work part-time at the library, where you will also have the opportunity to access the Forbidden Books.
Therefore, Elise is quite familiar with the administrator's workflow.
Many students who came to the library to read or study were surprised to see Elise and didn't quite understand why she was sitting there.
However, no one dared to ask.
Time flew by and it was almost noon. Flora, feeling hungry, slowly opened her eyes and found herself leaning on Iris's shoulder.
Elise? When did she arrive?
Flora straightened up nervously, then noticed that there were still some damp stains on Elise's clothes on her shoulders, which she knew without a doubt were left by her.
Oh no! Elise's clothes must be incredibly expensive. What am I supposed to do if I have to pay for them? Can I even afford to pay for them myself?
Just as Flora was lost in thought, Elise's gentle voice rang in her ears: "You're finally awake. You've made me wait here all morning. You're really bold."
"I... I didn't mean to, I was just too tired from not sleeping last night," Flora said softly.
"I didn't wake you up because you looked like you hadn't slept well, and I even helped you out with your part-time job all morning. How are you going to thank me?"
"I, I..." Flora, who had just woken up and was still not fully awake, was stunned by Iris's series of punches. She stammered for a long time and still didn't know how to thank her.
Seeing Flora on the verge of tears, Elise said at the opportune moment, "Fine, I'll let you off this time since I'm being kind. Now tell me about your recent research findings."
Flora was stunned. She hadn't expected Elise to let her go so easily. She had just imagined being locked in a dark room by Elise. She had heard that Elise had recently taken away a female classmate in a wheelchair, saying that the classmate had been bullied terribly.
After Elise waved her hand in front of her, Flora finally reacted and hurriedly took out two simple earrings from her pocket.
"This is?"
"I learned about this small magical communication device from the notes you gave me. It seems that the owner of the notes developed it while secretly contacting his lover. It's small and easy to carry, but the communication range is not large. Mine only has a range of about 500 meters. If the materials used are better, the communication range should be able to reach about 1,000 meters."
“These are nice.” Elise took the two earrings and clipped one of them onto Flora’s ear.
Flora felt her face flush as she felt Iris's fingertips gently touch her ear.
"Well, I'm going to the restroom now. Let's do a simple experiment."
"Oh."
Shortly after Iris left the library, Flora heard her soft voice, like a lover whispering in her ear: "Can you hear me?"
"Yes, I can hear you," Flora replied, her face flushed.
"Very good, the sound is also very clear."
After conducting a few simple experiments, Elise returned to the library, sat down next to Flora again, and said, "These earrings look a bit ugly. I'll prepare some nicer ones for you later, and give you the materials you need to make a batch for me."
"really?"
"Well, and I'm not letting you do this for free. I'll pay you later, so just look forward to it."
"Ok!"
Flora thought Elise was a really good person. Not only did she help her with her part-time job, but she also gave her materials to practice with, and even gold coins!
Seeing Flora's eyes practically turning into gold coins, Elise couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "No wonder she's Elena's sister; she's just like her sister when it comes to loving gold coins."
"Any other results?"
“There’s one more!” Flora took out another ring, put it on her hand, and the next second she transformed into Elise’s appearance.
"I've made similar magical devices before, but the disguise effect was just so-so. However, the disguise magical device developed by the owner of this notebook is much more effective. Although it still can't change the body, the disguise effect is much better."
Looking at Flora, who had become her, Iris reached out and pinched her cheek, and then Iris saw her own face blushing shyly.
"This is good too. I'll make a batch of these too. I'll deliver them tomorrow. I'll leave it to you then. Is it alright if I take this first?"
"Ah."
After removing the ring, Flora returned to her original appearance, but her blushing and shy demeanor remained unchanged.
Elise didn't continue teasing the other woman, otherwise, if Elena found out that she was teasing her sister... In her mind, she recalled the memory of being pinned down on the bed and disciplined by Elena, and then silently got up and said goodbye to Flora: "I'm going back now, I'll come back to see you tomorrow."
"Oh."
Just as Iris was about to leave, she seemed to remember something and stopped to say to Flora, "By the way, I heard that someone left the method to enter the forbidden library in the library, and it seems to be related to a certain book."
"I've only heard about it, so please don't get curious."
Volume 1: Chapter 90 You don't need to explain, I understand.
The knowledge contained in the forbidden library was fatally attractive to Flora.
As the librarian, Flora was bound to find a way into the forbidden library; it was only a matter of time.
Elise simply brought it forward a little bit.
In the game, following the normal process to find the way to enter the forbidden library allows one to fully understand its structure and the dangers within, so he wasn't worried about Flora's safety.
After Elise left the library, Flora stood there for a while, then finally headed towards the district.
……
Early the next morning.
Elise appeared outside the Eternal Church's headquarters once again, this time appearing more conflicted than yesterday.
Yesterday she was still some distance outside the camp, but this time she has walked to the vicinity of the gate and is lingering there.
His behavior was so strange that it even drew the attention of the guards.
Elise stammered for a while, then finally shook her head to indicate that nothing was wrong and turned to leave.
Rumia stood by the window, watching Iris's departing figure, and suddenly felt that she might have gone a bit too far in bewitching Iris, feeling that this was no longer within the scope of ordinary longing.
But this is good, it gives us a chance to get Elise to join the Eternal Church.
Although the Eternal Church cannot proselytize in the Empire, that's only on the surface; there are still quite a few believers in private.
Just then, the silver-armored knight knocked on the door and entered the room: "Your Majesty, we should go and visit Master Yarman."
"I understand." Lumia was unaware of the slight impatience in her tone, then turned and followed the silver-armored knight out of the room.
Meanwhile, Elise had already arrived at the academy through the teleportation hall.
She had already prepared the materials needed to have Flora make the magical artifact, so after being teleported here, she headed straight for the library.
Flora seemed to be in good spirits today, sitting behind the counter reading a book intently, so focused that she didn't even notice Iris entering the library.
However, this was a common occurrence, and Elise didn't pay any attention to it, simply tapping lightly on the counter.
Flora suddenly jolted, then hurriedly shoved the book she was reading under the table before quickly standing up and saying, "Miss Iris, you've arrived."
Elise keenly noticed that something was wrong with the other person, and then a faint smile appeared on her face: "What book were you reading just now? Why did you hide when you saw me?"
"It's just... just an ordinary thing."
Flora was only interested in books about magical artifacts before, and it was only after Iris told her that she could find a way to access the Forbidden Library in them that she started reading.
But as I watched, I became quite engrossed in it.
There is no censorship in this world, and the descriptions are very bold. Flora was just looking at some scenes that were difficult to describe when Elise appeared.
That's why she hurriedly hid the book.
At this moment, Elise looked at Flora with the same expression that comes when a parent suddenly enters the room and breaks up a pornographic film.
"Oh? You're watching something? Can you tell me what it's about? If it's good, I'd like to take a look too."
"It's about a story about a maid and her master."
"Let me think about it. You're probably looking at the 'Dragon Girl's Servant' from the 'Full of Spiritual Energy' group, right?"
"How could you..." Flora asked instinctively, then realized she had been exposed.
Seeing Flora's face begin to flush red, Iris added fuel to the fire with a mischievous grin: "I didn't expect you to like this kind of thing."
"me……"
"You don't need to explain, I understand. Let's get down to business now."
Elise took out many materials and her own jewelry from her spatial ring. As a noble lady, she had a lot of these things, which were perfect for making magical artifacts.
Flora, who was about to explain, was quickly drawn to the things on the table.
"Are these all for me to make magical artifacts?"
"Yes, even if Ling fails, it doesn't matter. Every magic master is fed with countless gold coins. I believe in you, you can definitely do it."
"I, I will definitely try my best!" Flora said earnestly.
"Okay, I've given you the things. I'll come back to pick them up in a while."
"Ah."
After Elise left, Flora realized that she hadn't explained things to her yet.
She opened her mouth, then slumped back into the chair like a deflated balloon. After a moment's hesitation, Flora's large eyes glanced around warily, and only after confirming that no one was around did she put the book under the table back in front of her and immerse herself in her world once more.
……
Southern outskirts of Seria.
The silver-armored knight swung his sword and sliced the middle-aged man in front of him into countless pieces. There was no blood in the man's cut body, only countless worms spilling out.
The worms wriggled their bodies, trying to regroup, but were quickly pressed to the ground by an invisible force and unable to move.
Standing at a distance, Lumilia looked at these insects with undisguised disgust on her face.
"This insectoid is bait," the silver-armored knight said calmly, sheathing his sword.
“The insect certainly won’t show itself so easily, but since it has thrown out the bait, it means it has already realized our purpose,” Rumia said calmly.
"Has the cult's support not arrived yet?"
"They're already on their way and should arrive tomorrow night. The Heroic Spirits sent this time are very good at tracking. As long as the insects are still hiding in Seria, they won't be able to escape the tracking," the silver-armored knight said.
"Collect a few worms as a medium, and crush the rest. Such vile things do not deserve to exist in this beautiful world."
The silver-armored knight took out a container, collected a few worms, and then burned the rest of the worms and meat chunks to ashes.
Back in the carriage, Lumia casually looked out the window and said, "I don't think I have any plans for tomorrow, do I?"
"The Marquis of Vincent would like to invite the Holy Maiden to the auction tomorrow."
Tell Marquis Vincent that I am not feeling well tomorrow.
The silver-armored knight seemed to be stunned for a moment, as if he was wondering how someone knew he would feel unwell tomorrow. After a while, he realized what was happening and nodded in agreement.
After Lumia and her group left, a butterfly fluttered its wings slightly on a tree branch not far away.
Meanwhile, Wendy, far away in the manor, slowly opened her eyes.
Volume 1: Chapter 91 She's so afraid of death
As soon as Elise returned to the manor, Wendy came to her and told her that the insectoids she had released had been found.
This was all within Elise's expectations. In fact, she deliberately let Wendy release a bug-man. If they didn't find the bug-man, how could they trace its origins through the bug?
She smiled and said to Wendy, "They'll definitely use bugs to track you over there. You could be a good bait, right?"
"Hmm, where are we going to put the bait?"
