However, Eloise quickly scratched her head and said, "Hey, don't worry about that kind of thing. Anyway, you're already my successor, so don't bother with all the 'whys.' Besides, I think you're quite pleasing to the eye."
"Have you always been this casual?"
"How could that be? I already said it's because I haven't talked to anyone for a long time. I'm usually a very quiet girl~" Eloise said, revealing a shy smile.
Elise twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Is there anything else you want to tell me?"
“Yes, yes!” Eloise moved closer to Elise and touched her chest, where the mark of greed was located.
"Let me tell you, greed is a bad guy. He's always stealing my things. You better not let him steal them from you one day, or I'll be heartbroken. But since you even have his mark, and you're such a little glutton..."
At this point, Eloise seemed to have thought of something amusing, and a pleasant smile appeared on her lips: "Why don't you go find Lazybones and ask him to give you the mark too?"
"Who is Lazybones?"
“It’s just laziness. I remember He liked to sleep in the endless ice plains, but I can’t recall exactly where.” It was probably a very distant memory, and Eloise showed a hint of reminiscence.
Elise was very familiar with the Endless Icefield; she had explored all the explorable areas in the game, but hadn't found any clues about Sloth.
And who is Sloth? It sounds like they're on the same level as Heloise and Lady Greed.
Just as Elise was pondering the relevant information, Eloise seemed to suddenly recall something, and then excitedly said to Elise, "I remember now, in the deepest part of the Endless Ice Plains, He said that only by hiding there could one avoid being disturbed."
"The deepest part?" Elise nodded thoughtfully. She had been to the deepest part of the Endless Ice Plains when she played the game before, but there was nothing there. If there really was something there, even if she couldn't find it, other players should have found it long ago.
It seems that she has been relying too much on the information she gained from the game. Since becoming Eloise's successor, this world has seen many beings she had never encountered before.
"You said He's a lazybones, how do you know I won't go and come back empty-handed?"
"Hmph, of course I've considered the problem you mentioned. I left something on you. As long as you can find that lazybones, I'm confident I can get him moving."
"I'll think about it."
"No, please." Eloise grabbed Elise's arm and shook it gently. "Lazybones' abilities are quite powerful. Don't you want to make your safety more secure?"
"My safety is barely guaranteed right now."
"Anyway, I've already told you the information. Whether you go or not is up to you." After saying that, she muttered under her breath, "I don't know how you got so much favor from the gods. Are you the god of love or am I the god of love?"
Although she was mumbling, her voice wasn't lowered too much, and Elise could still hear what she was saying clearly.
She rolled her eyes at Eloise, annoyed. "Is there anything else you want to say?"
"That's all for now. You wouldn't be coming here just for one visit, would you?"
"Shouldn't you disappear after I come once?"
"How could that be? I've already said I'm different from the others. I'm supported by the power of faith. Even if I give you the inheritance, I won't disappear. If you have time, come here often for a chat. I can tell you some things about the Age of Gods."
"For example, the love-hate relationship between Death, you, and the goddess of life?"
“What’s Death? I remember once when He was looking for Life, I was right next to Life, doing some interesting things with Him while listening to Death inviting Life to some kind of party. It was hilarious.” Eloise clutched her stomach, her smile as unrestrained as could be.
Only at this moment could Elise see the shadow of the goddess of pleasure in Eloise.
At the same time, she silently felt sorry for Death for three seconds, and then began to think about whether she could do something excessive to Celia when she received Death's divine oracle if she bewitched her.
Just thinking about it makes me so excited!
Volume 1: Chapter 408 But I can't bear to part with you.
"Cough cough!"
Eloise and Elise coughed lightly in unison, and the unrestrained joy on their faces gradually subsided.
The movements and timing were remarkably consistent.
"That's all for now. Now accept the inheritance." Eloise reached out and touched the mark of greed. After discovering that her power had been completely converted into the power of greed, she couldn't help but purse her lips. Then she moved the mark to Elise's forehead.
As she felt a burning, stinging pain in her eyes, Elise involuntarily closed them, but made no sound. (Memory)
When she opened her eyes again, the Church of Love had become lively once more.
The eerie, intricate heart-shaped pattern slowly faded from Iris's eyes. Zero
Just then, Elsa's voice rang in Iris's ear: "Miss Iris, what's wrong?"
“No, it’s nothing.” Iris shook her head, then turned to look at Elsa, the trace of pleasure in her eyes now completely hidden.
Without giving her a chance to press further, Elise said with a smile, "Since you're already here, Elsa, are you having any troubles in your love life? Perhaps you could try praying for her."
"I, I didn't." Elsa blushed as she looked at Iris. After this interruption, she didn't continue to ask about Iris's unusual behavior.
Although they didn't pray, quite a few people came to Eloise to pray. Elise sat on the bench and watched quietly for a while before getting up and leaving the church with Elsa.
"You're really not here to pray."
"Didn't I tell you? I just came to take a look around."
"I thought you were just saying that to make excuses for yourself."
Elise twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "How could that be? I've already said I could never have problems with relationships."
And if she really wanted to pray, she could pray to herself; after all, she was the successor of the goddess of love.
Gathering her scattered thoughts, Elise said with a sigh, "It's a pity, I won't be able to stay here for much longer."
Upon hearing Elise's words, a flicker of panic crossed Elsa's eyes: "You, you're leaving already?"
"More or less, after all, I've been here for a few days already, and there are still quite a few things waiting for me to take care of." As she said this, Elise seemed to notice something, then smiled and moved closer to Elsa, softly asking, "You're not going to miss me, are you?"
"No, no, we've only known each other for a few days, how could I possibly miss you!"
“But I think I’ll miss you a little,” Elise said, looking directly at Elsa.
“Although we’ve only known each other for a short time, for some reason, I feel like we’ve known each other for a long time,” Elise said, a look of daze on her face.
"Actually, I feel the same way. Even though we didn't know each other before, it feels like we've known each other for a long time."
Seeing that Iris had already said so, the naive Elsa also expressed her feelings without any concealment.
Hearing her say that, Elise tried hard to suppress the urge to smile and said, "Although this feeling is a little strange, I just can't bear to part with you. Why don't you come with me?"
"what?"
Elsa looked surprised; in the kingdom, such words seemed no different from a confession.
She instinctively wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't utter a complete sentence, and even her face flushed with shyness.
Seeing Elsa like this, Iris couldn't help but sigh in her heart again. Elsa is so cute when she hasn't gone astray. If it were before when she bet on her, saying such things would only make Elsa look like she's betraying her teacher.
As Elise sighed, Elsa noticed her change in mood and tried to suppress the urge to curl her lips into a smile.
She thought her acting was pretty good, all learned from her teacher. It was a pity it wasn't time to reveal her true colors yet; otherwise, she'd really like to see what kind of expression her teacher would make.
No, it feels like it's about to catch fire.
But that's fine too. After all, being shy is almost the same as having a fever, at least blushing doesn't need an explanation.
After walking for a while, each with their own ulterior motives, Elsa whispered, "I... I still don't know where you're taking me."
"How about going to Seria? Do you want to see the outside world?"
“Seria?” A hint of curiosity flashed in Elsa’s eyes, but she still said rationally, “Although I really want to go to the capital of the Empire, the two countries are at war right now. Is it really okay for me to go there like this?”
“No problem, I came to Castel too, and it was just a visit to my place, it’s not like I’m not coming back.”
"I have a friend who has the talent for spatial magic and can teleport over long distances. If you want to come back, you'll probably be able to return very soon."
"I... I'll think about it."
"Okay, I estimate I'll be staying here for a few more days. If you've made up your mind, just come find me."
Elise told Elsa her current address, waved to her, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Looking in the direction Elise left, the struggle on Elsa's face quickly disappeared, replaced by a smile full of pleasure.
Next, I only need to struggle with this for a day or two before I can stay by the teacher's side.
A teacher who has no defenses against you—just thinking about it is exciting.
Elsa licked her lips and then vanished from the spot. The people around her seemed completely oblivious to her sudden disappearance, continuing to go about their own business.
Meanwhile, after Elise parted ways with Elsa, she went straight back to Elira's mansion.
Seeing Elise smiling, Elira raised an eyebrow and asked, "You seem to be in a good mood. Is something good happening?"
“I suppose so.” Iris didn’t explain, but walked up to Elira and took out a blueprint from her spatial ring. It was a blueprint for an ancient teleportation array.
"Find a safe place and build an ancient teleportation array."
Elira looked at the blueprint and then said, "That's possible, but who's going to give me the missing ancient space stone?"
"I'll give you the information; go find it yourself."
Elise wouldn't do everything herself if she had a main character to command.
Volume 1: Chapter 409 I can do anything!
"How many times have you been reborn? How come you seem to know everything?"
Looking at the map Elise gave her, a hint of curiosity flashed in Elira's eyes. To be honest, even though she had been reborn hundreds of times, there were still many things about this world that she didn't understand.
But Elise is different; it seems like nothing can stump her, and you can even get the information you want from her by paying the right price.
"Would you like to guess?" Elise looked at Elira with a smile, clearly having no intention of answering the other's question.
Elira pursed her lips. Although she couldn't guess how many times Elise had been reborn, based on the information Elise had, she was certain that she had been reborn more times than herself, and by a lot more.
Having been reborn hundreds of times, I was already feeling exhausted, and I even gave up and gave up many times. If Elise had been reborn more times than me, I don't know how she managed to persevere.
"If you really want to know this information, I can actually tell you, as long as you let me seduce you a little~"
"Then forget it."
Elira would never let Iris bewitch her. What if she were bewitched and turned into the Eternal Saintess Rumia? She didn't want to become a perverted nymphomaniac!
Seeing Ela's reaction, Iris sighed somewhat boredly and began to think about what to do if Elsa still refused to come with her after two days of consideration.
After all, Elsa is like a blank sheet of paper right now, and it's not up to her to decide what color to paint her.
Elise was confident that she would not raise her badly this time.
Actually, she didn't raise her child badly the last time; she did raise a savior-level being. But while a savior can save the world, they can't save certain people.
Thinking of this, Elise sighed with some melancholy. This time her rebirth went very smoothly, and with several protagonists in her camp, this could be considered her most promising rebirth.
But this wasn't the first time this idea had appeared; each time it seemed like the most hopeful moment, only to die in disappointment after disappointment.
As Elira was about to leave, she suddenly noticed a hint of sadness flash in Iris's eyes, but when she focused her attention on Iris, she found that the other woman did not seem to have changed at all.
When one's abilities reach a certain level, it becomes impossible to make a mistake.
So, did Elise just recall some sad memories from the past?
Even though the other person hadn't used any charm on her, she had just felt an urge to go over and comfort them.
Is this the world-destroying witch? She's absolutely terrifying.
Elira didn't dare linger alone with Iris any longer and quickened her pace to run away.
Watching Elira's departing figure, Elise couldn't help but tilt her head. What was wrong with Elira? Was she really that scary?
……
The next day, Hattie, who had been asleep for two days, finally woke up.
After waking up, she went out of her room and immediately saw Elise lying on the living room sofa like a lazy cat.
She blinked, making sure she wasn't seeing things, before asking curiously, "How did you get here? And why am I here?"
Hearing Hattie's voice, Elise lazily turned her gaze to her, then chuckled and said, "Have you forgotten what happened?"
"Did something happen?" Hattie scratched her head, looking confused, clearly unsure of what had happened.
"It's a bit complicated to explain, so I'll have someone explain it to you." Elise snapped her fingers, and a moment later, Elaera returned home.
Si looked at Hedy, who had already woken up, and went straight over to check her over carefully. After confirming that her friend was alright, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing Elira's concerned expression, even the slow-witted Hattie realized that something seemed to have happened.
"She doesn't know what happened, you should explain it to her."
"Ah."
Wuilela nodded slightly, then briefly explained the situation to Hattie.
After listening, Hattie blinked and said, "You mean, I was kidnapped and then you guys rescued me?"
