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

“I think highly of you too,” Elise said, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Elena. “Would you like to hear my opinion of you?”

(vi) Baijiuwu Balingling Wuchun

"No need." Seeing Elise's smile, Elena always felt that the other woman was unlikely to say anything nice.

"What a pity, I had so many compliments for you that I had planned."

Elena's fighting style is very realistic. She will stop at nothing to achieve her goals and will use any means at her disposal, whether it's poisoning or backstabbing. As long as she can achieve her goal, she will not care whether these methods are honorable or not.

When necessary, she can even verbally abuse people to the point of breaking their defenses, thereby disrupting their rhythm.

Elise can also use this, after all, as a gamer, she knows so many secrets that even she herself can't count them all, and she even knows some people's unspeakable fetishes.

When facing certain people, she can break their defenses with just words.

She had already practiced this before.

Just as Elise was about to take a shower, she suddenly heard a somewhat familiar voice: "I know Elise, I'm one of our own!"

Upon hearing the sound, Elise and Elena arrived at the source, where they saw a rock with its hand raised, tightly clutching a beautiful girl.

Although it was the first time Elise had seen this face, the familiar tone and voice quickly told her who the unfortunate guy who had been caught was.

“Miss Sally, we meet again.” Elise looked at Sally, who was being held by the giant rock hand, with a smile in her eyes, her eyes full of joy at the reunion.

"Um, Miss Elise, could you please tell your bodyguard if I'm really one of yours?" Sally cautiously looked at the graceful figure standing on the second floor, afraid that she would be crushed if the other party exerted even the slightest force.

She felt a pressure similar to that of a pure white blade emanating from the other party; they were definitely a seventh-tier being.

"Ba Jiuwu Ling Si" Lin Wu? Ling? Meng

Sally never expected that there would be such a powerful person in Elise's family. If she hadn't called out Elise's name in time, she probably would have become Sally-chan by now.

"Wendy, let her go."

Upon hearing Iris's voice, Wendy waved her hand lightly. The giant rock hand, Sally, released its grip and returned to the underground. The ground in the yard quickly returned to its original state, and even the grass on it was well preserved.

“That scared me to death.” Sally patted her chest, which was barely rising or falling.

"Why doesn't Miss Sally come in through the front door?"

Sally chuckled twice, a little embarrassed, and said, "I'm used to it."

As a thief, she always habitually climbed over walls and used back doors, and when she came to find Elise, she never even considered using the front door.

"Remember that next time!"

Sally wanted to say there wouldn't be a next time, but in front of Elise, she obediently nodded.

Elise, who was originally going to take a shower, had to put her original plan aside and brought Sally to the living room.

Looking at the luxuriously decorated hall, Sally couldn't help but think of the fact that Elise's family owned a gold mine. But before she could think of anything else, Elise's gentle voice rang out: "Miss Sally, if you want to know where my safe is, I can tell you directly."

"No, I don't want to know!" Sally put on a stern face, trying to hide her inner panic; she didn't want to become Sally-chan yet.

Elise casually sat down in the chair, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Sally: "Since Miss Sally has come to me of her own accord, it means you've already stolen what I wanted, right?"

"Take a look and see if this is it." Sally took out an ordinary book from her spatial ring. The cover was pitch black with no title, and the pages inside were also blank with no content. There were only three pages.

If this thing hadn't been kept in the safe of the Govis Trading Company, she wouldn't have even found it.

“Yes, this is it.” Elise took the book; with her system, she could see the book’s title.

The Book of the Soul

"Um, can I ask what this thing is used for?" Sally asked curiously.

"It's used to imprison souls. If I put it that way, you probably wouldn't understand. Simply put, it's about imprisoning the soul of the deceased within it, while the user can utilize some of the soul's abilities from its previous life."

"For example, if I kill you, I can change my appearance at will, just like you."

Hearing Elise's words, Sally nervously took a half step back. However, if Elise really wanted to kill her, she would have already turned into Sally-chan just now. So, hearing what Elise said, she relaxed instead.

"This is an ancient artifact, but unfortunately, the people in the merchant guild don't know how to use it. Also, it's missing quite a few pages, so it's not complete yet." Elise casually put the book into her spatial ring. She didn't have a suitable soul yet, so she couldn't use it for the time being.

“That unassuming tattered book is actually an ancient relic?” Sally asked in surprise.

"Well, to thank you for bringing this back for me, I'll also tell you some information about ancient spatial magic, including the spatial storage magic you're looking for."

"How did you know I have a spatial ability?" Sally looked at Elise in surprise. She hadn't told anyone about her spatial ability; it was a secret that belonged only to her. This was beyond what could be summarized as mere intelligence. Sally even suspected that Elise might have some kind of mind-reading ability.

"Don't worry, I don't have mind-reading abilities. I just happen to have a tool that allows me to see other people's magical talents."

"Okay, then tell me about that place."

The spatial magic system was extremely incomplete; even with her exceptionally rare talent, she had virtually no usable spells. Sally was indeed very tempted by Elise's offer.

"No problem. If you need ancient magic similar to teleportation, you can come to me. I also have information about that kind of magic."

Sally felt like she had been tricked. She thought that after this transaction, she would have nothing to do with Ibara anymore, but now it seemed that the other party had her figured out.

But it doesn't matter. She doesn't believe Elise knows all the information about ancient spatial magic. Besides, she doesn't like fighting. As long as she can get a few more spatial spells from Elise that are suitable for escaping or saving her life...

Just then, Sally suddenly remembered something and said to Elise, "By the way, when I was visiting the Govis Merchant Guild, I found a hidden dungeon there, and it seems like elves are imprisoned inside."

Volume 1: Chapter 61 The Elixir of Immortality and Mushrooms

Just like elves in many fantasy works, the elves in this world are very similar to humans, with pointed ears, extremely high looks, and extremely long lifespans.

However, the elves of this world are in a rather unfortunate situation. Their goddess of life nearly perished in the War of the Gods, and after the war, they could only eke out a living under the protection of the World Tree.

It was around that time that an alchemist developed an alchemical product that could prolong life, known as the Elixir of Immortality.

Immortality is always so alluring.

Moreover, the method of making the elixir of immortality is extremely simple, requiring only the blood of elves, which is why elves were hunted extensively at that time.

If it weren't for the protection of the World Tree, the Elf race might not even exist today.

Since then, elves have rarely been seen on this land.

"I wonder where the Govis Merchant Guild found these elves. This is the first time I've ever seen one." Sally recalled the elves imprisoned in the dungeon. She had thought about helping them, but unfortunately, there was no time left.

"Those elves were found by the Govis Merchant Guild at the site where the ancient ruins were discovered. After the War of the Gods, most of the elves entered the protection of the World Tree, but a small number of elves did not have time or did not choose to leave," Elise said calmly.

Hearing her certain tone, Sally said with some disappointment, "So you knew." She was hoping to use this information to exchange for an ancient spatial magic spell from Elise.

"Do you think I, who know what's in their safe, wouldn't know they control a group of elves?" Elise smiled slightly, those elves were important bargaining chips, chips that could allow her to make connections with the elves.

"Then tell me where there are records of spatial magic."

Elise had Sally bring out a map, then pointed to a small fishing village in the east of the empire: "There is a small ancient ruin near this fishing village, located underwater. You need to prepare for underwater operations in advance."

How did you discover that?

"I already told you, my intelligence network is very large."

This place actually requires a series of quests to discover; it's the final treasure location. However, Elise saved Sally some time.

"So I'll just leave then? You probably don't need any help from me, right?"

"There's a piece of paper in the ruins, displayed in a very conspicuous place. It's a fragment of the Book of Souls. Remember to bring it back for me. You probably won't ask me for any reward for such a small favor, right?"

Sally, who was about to ask for payment, suddenly found herself speechless. She sighed sadly, "Okay, I understand. As long as I have the ancient spatial magic you mentioned, I will bring the item back to you."

"Thank you. Would you like to stay for dinner before you leave?"

"No, no need."

Sally chuckled awkwardly, then instinctively tried to climb out the window. However, as she reached the window, she saw Wendy strolling in the garden, so she silently turned around and chose to leave through the front door.

Watching Sally walk away quickly, Wendy tilted her head and said to Elise, "She seems afraid of me."

“After all, you caught her as soon as she climbed over the wall, so it’s normal that she’s afraid of you.” Elise smiled, then asked, “How’s the book I gave you coming along?”

"I've seen enough. Should I set off for the kingdom now?" There seemed to be some reluctance in her light green eyes.

"Don't rush, the Spark Festival is coming soon. You can join in the fun first and then go to complete your mission."

Elise estimated that this year's Spark Festival would definitely not be peaceful, and she would be much safer with Wendy around.

Wendy nodded gently. She was also very curious about the Spark Festival, having heard from Elise that there would be a spectacular magical effects show that day.

Just then, Elena asked curiously, "Can the elixir of immortality really turn people into immortal beings?"

"Yes, you can take it as long as you keep taking it. However, taking this medicine for too long will lead to drug resistance, which can make people live for about a thousand years. But later on, you will need more and more medicine, and most people probably won't be able to live for more than four or five hundred years."

"Aren't there any side effects?"

"Of course there is. Even if you get it in the future, don't eat it. If you eat it, you will be tainted with a terrible curse that cannot be removed."

"I was just a little curious. I didn't expect that something with such simple production steps, something I could make with just the materials, would actually be effective."

"That's exactly what I wanted, simplicity is key." Elise smiled mysteriously, then turned and left the living room; she needed to take a shower.

Seeing this, Wendy silently followed.

……

The next day, in front of the station.

Elise stood there, with Elena quietly holding an umbrella beside her. *∶Three#0〗□＝＠

"I didn't expect you to come and see me off." Nora stood in front of Elise, looking somewhat surprised.

"It's just on the way. Remember what I told you: if there's any danger, ask the one residing in your body for help. He won't let you be killed by anyone other than his agent."

The location Elise gave Nora this time is an opportunity for another protagonist, but according to her understanding of the plot, that protagonist will have to wait a long time to discover the ancient forge hidden underground.

This can be considered a disguised way of weakening the combat power of a certain opposing protagonist and increasing the strength of our protagonist.

We don't know how the protagonist of that dream, after going through countless hardships and piecing together clues, would react when they finally found the place only to discover that the item had already been taken.

Just thinking about it is exciting.

"Don't worry, I..." Before Nora could finish speaking, her mouth was pinched shut by Elise. Whenever Nora went out to do something alone, the words she said were like setting a death flag, which scared Elise.

"Alright, the train has arrived at the station. Hurry up and go in. Remember to bring me a gift." Before Nora could speak, the ring on Elise's hand emitted a magical glow, and the not-so-strong magical impact pushed Nora directly into the station.

After Nora entered the station, Elise seemed to suddenly remember something and said with some annoyance, "Ah, I forgot something."

"whats the matter?"

"Nora should bring some mushrooms with her when she goes there. Leave some mushrooms in the mess after she takes the stuff, so that the others don't end up with nothing."

"You really are..."

The thought of someone painstakingly overcoming numerous challenges only to open a magnificent treasure chest and find a few mushrooms inside must be incredibly frustrating.

Volume 1: Chapter 62 Did you come back to the present from the future?

After seeing Nora off, Elirins also used the teleportation array to arrive at the Imperial House Magic Conquest Academy high in the sky.

She came here to make a rare public appearance and to see if Flora had any new research findings.

In the game, if you choose Elena as the protagonist, you can unlock new magical artifacts by giving Flora some ancient magical artifacts as research materials.

It's like a technology tree.

This isn't a game, and she's not Elena, but if she can build a good relationship with Flora, she can get her help.

After thinking it over carefully, Elise felt that her relationship with Flora was actually quite good. After all, she was Flora's savior, even though Flora might not know it.

In the familiar teleportation hall, Elise, who had just been teleported there, heard someone say that the Holy Maiden of the Eternal Church would arrive in Seria tomorrow.

This news also puzzled Elise. There were still nearly half a month until the Spark Festival, so the saintess had come to Celia so far in advance. It couldn't possibly be just to participate in the festival.

Fortunately, Nora left this morning, so there's no need to worry about her being detected by the Eternal Church's agents. But what is the purpose of the saintess's early arrival in Seria?

Is it for a plan to create a god? Or is it to prevent the arrival of some evil god?

Elise carefully recalled the major events that were about to happen in Celia. There were quite a few of them, and they were rather complicated. Even she couldn't figure out the purpose of the saintess's arrival for the time being.

It can't be because of me, right?

Soon after, Elise arrived at the library.

Flora, who had no classes today, was still sitting at the front desk, intently reading books about magical artifact creation. She was so focused that she didn't even react when Iris walked right up to her.

Elise gently tapped on the counter, and Flora realized someone was standing in front of her. She looked up, her cute face full of confusion, but when she saw Elise, her confusion turned into cautious nervousness.

"Miss Elise, you've arrived."

"Well, there's not much information about Cupid left in the library. I only found a little bit this time." She took out a notebook she had prepared beforehand and handed it to Elise, as if she were offering Elise a gift as a favor.

Luckily, no one was around, otherwise Elise would probably have been the subject of many rumors about her at the academy tomorrow.

Elise didn't expect to find any important information in the library unless she could access the restricted section.
