"If you knew I was the mastermind, you would definitely want to know who is behind you. If you knew I was the mastermind, you would definitely come looking for revenge, just like you are now."
"My original plan was to eliminate you, since you are dangerous, but I changed my mind since you didn't make a move."
"You... eliminate me?"
“That’s right. Although you are close to the fifth rank, you are not yet at the fifth rank. Killing you might be a bit troublesome, but forcing the being inside your body to take action is not a difficult thing.”
Norlara's mocking gaze turned icy. Even the being residing in the dream within his own body knew about the scar—how did Iris discover this?
She felt as if she were standing naked in front of him, with absolutely no secrets.
"As a fragment of a god's soul, He chose you as His agent, so He won't just stand by and watch you die. As soon as He makes a move, the agent of another fragment in the capital will realize that you are facing only death if you confront her now."

"Do you now think I'm just talking the talk?"

Nora was truly surprised to find that Elise's plan was like this; thankfully, she hadn't rushed in to attack.
But then again, why did Elise tell me about this plan?
As if she could read her mind, Elise smiled and said, "It just occurred to me that we might still have room for cooperation. That was my way of showing my sincerity. You can discuss it with the person inside your body."
"You haven't mentioned the details of the collaboration yet."
"The cooperation is simple: I'll help you find the locations of the soul fragments, and you'll do some things for me. One fragment of information in exchange for one task. That shouldn't be too difficult, right?"
"Say yes to her." The ethereal voice rang in Nora's ears.
"I'm still a little unwilling to be led by the nose by her." Nora frowned slightly.

"We can get our revenge later; there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Why are you so sure?

"Because...because I am God. Shouldn't God know more?"
Nora felt that her reasoning was a bit far-fetched, but Elizabeth's suggestion was indeed very tempting.
"Okay, I agree to your request. I hope you can provide accurate information."
"Don't worry, I have my own sources of information. To prove my sincerity, let me first tell you about another agent in the capital."
Not only Nora, but even Elena and Misha were curious about who God's representative would be.
"Philomena, the third princess of the empire."
"So it was her." She had heard of Philomena before; she was a swordsmanship genius of the empire, a terrifying existence who had reached the seventh rank at a young age.
If Elise wasn't lying to herself, then if she encountered the other person, she truly wouldn't survive.
"Alright, if you want to stay any longer, I can have someone prepare a room for you."
"no need."
Nora gave Elise a deep look, then put her hood back on and quickly disappeared from her sight.
After Nora left, Elise slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the biggest obstacle to her surviving the early game had been overcome, she could finally start developing for a while.

After Nora left, Elena looked at Elise with curiosity: "How do you know so much?"
"As I said, I have sources of information. If you want to know anything, you can ask me. I won't charge you, but it won't be free. You'll just have to do some physical labor."
"So you mean it depends on the intelligence, and you want me to stay and work for you for free?"
"Oh dear, don't be so blunt. I usually prefer to be more subtle." Elise covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes full of slyness and her brows exuding a captivating charm that drew people in unconsciously.
Elena pondered for a moment, then asked curiously, "Since you're so capable, do you know where the Lost City of Gold is?"
Legend has it that there is a huge city made of gold, and finding it means endless wealth. This is an old legend, but it is just a legend. The quest to find the golden city is still posted in the Adventurers' Guild hall.
"I know. If you want to know the exact location, just be my bodyguard for life, and I'll tell you."
Elise truly knew that place, and if she could live to the seventh rank or higher, she would go there too, since the Golden City represented more than just endless wealth.
Just then, the little maid suddenly asked nervously, "Miss Ling, may I ask you for some information?"
"Sure, Misha can ask me anything, it's free."
"what?"
Misha blinked. She wanted the young lady to repeat what she had just said to the white-haired girl to her, and then she would agree without hesitation.
Why would she neglect herself? Could it be that Qi Yiba went to find a prostitute for free, only to be met with a vengeful act? Could it be that she herself is a special being in the prostitute's eyes and dreams?
The little maid's eyes gleamed with obvious excitement, and even her fair cheeks flushed a faint pink with emotion.

Ignoring the maid's reaction, Elise slowly got up and stretched her slightly stiff body.
This time, he was able to persuade Nora with words, which was indeed somewhat unexpected for her.
Group? Chatting about the cold three near the underworld] Seven 〧 Siba
Based on my past near-death experiences, Nora is not so easy to persuade. Could it be that she, like Elena, has had her past memories resurface, or perhaps my charm worked?
So how exactly can Lilith's sacrifice be completed?
Well, with this new employee, [The Mark of the King of Gluttony], around, I don't need to keep an eye on Enchantress.
Now that Nora's problem is solved, she has time to improve her strength.
As a follower of the Gluttonous King, she could go somewhere to improve herself. Although using the protagonist can help her survive, if her own strength is too weak, she can easily be killed by unknown area-of-effect attacks.
Elise remembered that at the beginning, she didn't pay attention to her own strength and gave everything to a certain protagonist. Then, when the protagonist fought against the god, she was punished by the aftershocks of the battle.
That was the most humiliating death Elise ever suffered.
"So, do I want to stay in your room tonight?" Elena asked curiously.
"Yes, I do. What if Nora changes her mind and wants to kill me?"
"Ok."
"Sleeping on the floor must be very uncomfortable, don't you really want to come to the bed?" Elise, who had already sat on the edge of the bed, patted the spot next to her, as if she were sincerely inviting Elena.
"No need, I'm quite comfortable sleeping on the floor." Elena refused Iris's invitation without hesitation, then took out her bedding from the cupboard and made it up.
Just then, Elise's voice rang out with a hint of doubt: "How did you know where your bedding was?"
"I..." Alina subconsciously wanted to say what she saw, but when the maid was tidying up the room in the morning, she had already gone outside and didn't see where the maid put the things.
Why do I habitually open the cupboard?
It was that strange sense of familiarity again, as if I had done this many times before.
"Never mind, that's not important. What's important is that I'm sleepy. Goodnight." Elis Ling kicked off her shoes and crawled into bed.
Seeing that her mistress had already lain down, the little maid walked up to Elena with a serious expression and said, "I will keep a close eye on you tonight too!"
Baling=%Jiulinnijiubaqunliao
"Just make sure you don't steal from your own workplace."
"No way!"
The little maid gave a soft hum, then laid out her bedding on the other side, preparing to lie down.
Just then, the maid suddenly heard some movement coming from the bed. She opened her eyes and saw that her mistress had moved to the edge of the bed and was peeking out at her.
"Misha, do you want to come to bed?"
"Huh? This, this, this isn't quite right, is it?" Although Misha's eyes were full of longing, her upbringing made it difficult for her to directly accept the young lady's invitation.
"Then I order you to sleep with me, how about that?"
“Since Miss Qi has already given me orders, I will definitely obey Miss Qi’s words.” Although Misha was trying her best to keep her face straight, the smile on her lips could not be suppressed.
Lying on the soft bed, Misha was momentarily dazed, her mind filled with strange thoughts.

"Miss's bed is so soft."
峮锍5N冥倭(/~二)叁師拔覇師
"Miss's bed smells so good."
"Miss, you're so soft and fragrant!"
Seeing the maid's reaction, Elise felt that she probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight, but what did it have to do with her? She was just a kind-hearted young lady who couldn't bear to see the maid sleeping on the floor.
Gently embracing the little maid, Elise slowly closed her eyes.
……
Another clear morning arrived, and the awakened Yi Jiuli looked at the familiar flowers and sighed in her heart that she had lived another day.
She withdrew her arms from the little maid, then sat up to get out of bed.
Just as Elise's fair little foot was about to step on Elena's face, she suddenly stopped and pulled her leg back.
Seeing Elena's furrowed brows, Elise sighed softly, then got out of bed and knelt beside her, preparing to wake her from her nightmare.
But just as she reached halfway out, Elena seemed to sense something and grabbed her hand with lightning speed.
"do not die!"
Elena suddenly opened her eyes and uttered the words she had wanted to say in her dream but couldn't.
"What do you mean, 'don't die'? I'm still alive, aren't I?"
Looking at Elise squatting beside her, Elena was silent for a moment. For a brief instant, she felt that Elise's figure overlapped with the figure of the girl in her dream whose face she couldn't see.
"Are you infatuated with my hands? If it's you, I don't mind."

Elise's words reminded Elena that she was still holding the other person's hand tightly. She subconsciously let go, and in that instant, Elena felt a strong sense of reluctance to part.
Suppressing the urge to pull that slender, delicate hand back, Elena stood up, rubbed her temples, and said, "Sorry, I had a nightmare."
"Can you tell me what you dreamed about?"
After a moment of silence, Elena shook her head: "I've already forgotten."
Zero Six Lin Er Shan Ba Ba? Master
Volume 1: Chapter Sixteen - Carjacking
At the entrance to the Adventurers' Guild in the Imperial Capital, Seria.
Elise stood there, watching the open gate, where adventurers with all sorts of umbrellas came and went, creating a lively scene.
As the capital of the empire, the adventurers' guild here is also very large.
Stepping inside, you'll find a huge hall with dozens of windows operating simultaneously. Adventurers gather here, either searching for suitable tasks at the windows or exchanging information in the rest area.
In the center of the lobby on the first floor, there is a huge magic crystal screen that displays the latest announcements from the Adventurers' Guild, as well as the guild's ten most difficult quests.
Some explore the land where gods have fallen, some search for ancient relics, and some even acquire the flesh and blood of gods.
The quest to find the City of Gold is also prominently featured.
Elise glanced at it once and then looked away.
She knew how to complete those tasks, but going now would be a waste of time. Even the simplest task required reaching level seven before one was qualified to explore it.
Upon arriving at the registration window, Elise registered herself and her maid as adventurers.
Registered adventurers will have their own unique identification documents, which contain their resumes.
Currently, both she and the maid are the lowest-ranking D-class adventurers.
Elena, on the other hand, is at the C+ level.
"Does the noble lady want to join the adventurer's life as a member of the group?" Elena looked at Elise with some disdain after she saw her register as an adventurer.
