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

"Okay~"

“Hmm?” Elira looked at Elise with some surprise. She thought Elise would refuse, after all, in her opinion, Elise was more like a local than she was.

As if sensing Elira's thoughts, Iris said in a coquettish tone, "I just want you to come with me~"

Volume 1: Chapter 498 Dead, but not completely dead

When Elise started to act coquettishly towards her, Elira's pupils began to tremble.

Although Elise looked very cute when she was being coquettish and her voice was very pleasant, she could clearly feel that quite a few eyes were on her.

Many of them were beings who had destroyed the world, which instantly put her under immense pressure.

Elira silently distanced herself from Elise and said, "Please tone it down a bit, I'm under a lot of pressure."

Elira clearly didn't understand Elise enough. The more she backed down in front of Elise, the more Elise would take advantage of her. Seeing Elise move closer to her again, Elira stopped eating breakfast and decisively got up, saying, "Then I'll go back to my room to prepare. We'll leave in ten minutes."

After saying that, she ran away without looking back.

Seeing this, Elise couldn't help but chuckle. It was indeed quite interesting to tease Elira.

Just as Elira was making her preparations, Nora also moved closer to Elise and excitedly said, "You just said you were going to find Brook, how about I go with you?"

She felt that if she fought Brook again, she might be able to break through to the seventh rank.

Elise glanced at Nora, clearly seeing through her thoughts. She reached out and gently tapped Nora's head, then said, "The situation here in the kingdom is complicated right now. He probably won't be able to fight you for the time being, but I don't mind if you want to come along."

"Then let's make an appointment first," Nora said nonchalantly.

Ten minutes passed quickly, and Elira, having changed her clothes, took Iris out.

After leaving her home, Elira breathed a sigh of relief, free from the invisible pressure. Just now, when she was at home, she felt as if she were in a demon's lair. No, she had been to the abyss before, but even that was nothing compared to the terrifying situation she had just experienced.

After the three of them got into the carriage, it only took about ten minutes for the carriage to stop in front of a tavern.

Rusty Sword Tavern, opened by the legendary adventurer Kyle Rossetti after his retirement, may seem unremarkable at first glance, but those who frequent the place will find that many prominent figures come here for drinks from time to time.

Kyle is also Brook's teacher.

Because it was still early, there weren't many people in the tavern, except for a thin old man sitting bored at the counter, and Brooke helping out.

Hearing the door open, Brooke glanced at it and said casually, "Wait for me a moment, I'll be done soon."

Iris didn't pay any attention, simply finding a corner to sit down, her gaze naturally falling on the legendary adventurer.

That legendary adventurer, Iris had a lot of contact with him when she played the game before. After all, Brook was one of the best protagonists in the game and was always the choice of many people, including Iris when she was still a novice.

However, Brook's performance was so good that after playing through the game two or three times, she lost interest in the character.

When Elise looked at Kyle, Kyle also glanced at Elise, then politely nodded to her.

"Didn't I teach you to greet guests first when they arrive?" The old man casually picked up a wine bottle and threw it at Brooke.

Brooke skillfully caught the bottle, then said helplessly, "You said you're a guest, can't you give me some face in front of the guests?"

Although he said that, he still took the bottle of wine and three glasses and sat down opposite Elise: "Miss Elise, it's been a long time. You're still as beautiful as ever."

While Elise was indeed beautiful, Brook was clearly not interested in her looks. He was far more interested in Nora; after not seeing her for so long, he felt Nora had become considerably stronger.

"Let's fight?" Nora's question was very direct.

"I've been a bit busy lately, but I'll be available after I'm done."

"Okay, then let me know when you're done."

After their duel ended, Elise finally spoke, "I heard from Elira that you wanted to make a deal with me?"

“That’s right, a deal that concerns your safety.” Lu

Upon hearing Brooke's words, Elise raised an eyebrow. Brooke knew her situation; if it were just a normal situation, he certainly wouldn't have gone to such lengths to contact her.

Since he has already said that, it means that the information he is preparing to make a deal with me is indeed related to my safety.

Thinking of this, Elise said directly, "I can find a way to get the Fountain of Immortality for you, or I can provide a young body so that you can transfer your teacher's soul into that body."

"I have no interest in changing bodies," the drowsy old man suddenly said.

"What if I said I knew where Miss Margaret was?"

The old man, who was still half asleep, raised his head immediately after hearing Elise's words, his cloudy eyes staring intently at her.

Even Brooke was taken aback by the old man's reaction; he hadn't seen his teacher react like that in a long time.

"She's still alive?"

“No, he’s dead, but not completely. He’s been transformed into an undead. If you want to know, I can tell you.” As Elise said this, her gaze also turned to Brook.

Brooke understood Elise's meaning perfectly well, and he said very directly, "Then let's make a trade."

Elise casually took out a piece of paper from her spatial ring: "This is the location of the forbidden zone and how to enter it. The person your teacher is looking for is inside, but it is extremely dangerous. My personal suggestion is to wait until you break through to the ninth rank before entering, otherwise you have a high probability of dying inside."

The Forbidden Zone of Life is a forbidden zone left behind after the battle between the God of Death and the Source of Plague. The power of death and the power of plague have strangely merged, causing the forbidden zone to be filled with death and plague. Anyone with a strength below the seventh rank will die if they enter.

Even those at the seventh rank or higher can die instantly if they are not careful when entering, and then be transformed into undead creatures, forever trapped in that forbidden zone.

Seeing that Elise directly presented the information her teacher wanted, Brooke felt that she must have prepared it in advance. He wondered where she got the information from. Could she possibly predict the future?

Although he had some doubts, Brooke knew it was impolite to ask others about such things, so he didn't say anything more. After handing the paper to his teacher, he began to tell Elise about what had happened that night.

Volume 1: Chapter 499 You will see her, but not now

"You mean, someone who seems to be a chosen one of destiny has asked you to clear away the noise from my fate?"

Elise raised an eyebrow. In the game, the records about the God of Fate were mostly just a few words. Although many players knew of her existence, they didn't really know much about her.

Although many players have made connections and analyses based on clues, these are ultimately just assumptions, lacking too much important information.

It's similar to Eloise. Speaking of which, I wonder if Eloise has any information about fate. It seems I need to find some time to meet her.

Elise has died and been resurrected so many times, but this is the first time she has heard of a destined companion appearing, even asking other protagonists to kill her.

Elise began to suspect that fate might have played a part in her countless near-death experiences.

If Brooke wasn't lying to herself, then this matter truly concerned her safety.

Who knows how many protagonists that so-called chosen one of fate will find to kill him?

Nora, who had also received the information, flashed a chilling killing intent in her eyes.

Sensing her murderous intent, Elira shuddered involuntarily. She vaguely felt as if she had returned to the era ruled by the god-slayer Nora. She touched her neck somewhat awkwardly. Come to think of it, it was her bad luck that she was reborn as a priestess of a certain god.

Seemingly noticing her unusual behavior, Elise coughed twice and then said to Nora, "Hold back a little. We still don't know how strong they really are."

"Oh." Nora responded softly, slightly suppressing her killing intent before calling out to the one within her body in her mind: "Are you there? Do you know which one is the God of Fate?"

"Fate, a clown who likes to hide in the shadows and try to control everything." The ethereal voice now carried a rare hint of murderous intent.

"I can't deal with the god of fate for now, but I might be able to deal with the one who is favored by fate. Do you know where she is?"

"I don't know, but if she shows up, I can tell you."

Hearing this, Nora was overjoyed. As long as the person inside her body reminded her, she could cut the other person into pieces as soon as they appeared.

"Do you know who else she contacted besides you?" Elise asked curiously.

“I tried to find out, but she didn’t say anything. I guess the person she found shouldn’t be too bad. If you want my help, you can ask me for help too. All you need is a bottle of Longevity Spring Water.”

"I'll contact you if I need anything."

Elise only thought about it briefly before giving up on guessing. After all, the game had many ways to play, a vast world view, and numerous protagonists, so she really couldn't guess who the other party would send to kill her.

However, with Lily and Sera by her side, there's not much to worry about.

She cared more about fate than being attacked and killed by the protagonists.

"Alright, I've told you everything I can. Now, try my teacher's collection. This is a fine wine called 'Dream Beast Saliva.' It's said that just a small cup can give you a wonderful dream." Brooke said excitedly. He had been eyeing this wine for a long time, but he had never been able to get the old man to reveal it. He never expected that he would finally get his wish today.

"Then I won't be polite." This is a drink that can permanently boost attributes, so of course Elise won't be polite. Moreover, this drink won't make people drunk; it will only give them a sweet dream when they go to sleep at night.

After finishing her drink, Elise chatted casually with Brooke for a while. Seeing that the tavern was getting busier, she took her leave.

After leaving the Rusty Sword Tavern, Nora sidled up to Elise and whispered, "Should we put things on hold for now? I'm worried something might go wrong."

Nora wasn't one to overthink things, but ever since she witnessed Elise's various deaths, she couldn't help but worry excessively about anything related to Elise's safety.

“There’s no need for that.” Although hiding in Hope Land is safe, Elise has a better way now.

……

The next day, Elise arrived at the gate of Ronald's manor early in the morning.

The guards at the entrance were still the same two as before. Although they looked no different from ordinary guards, Elise, who had now transformed the mark of greed into the mark of order, could feel a strong power of order emanating from these two guards.

It seems that the divine realm of order remains unchanged.

She walked slowly to the door, and the two guards only glanced at her without stopping her.

Upon seeing this, Elise raised an eyebrow, feeling as if the owner of this place knew she was coming.

Upon entering Ronald's manor, Elise could clearly feel the power of order enveloping her body, but it had no effect on her at the moment; in fact, it made the power of order within her body even more active.

Elise felt that if she were to use the power of order to issue decrees now, she would be greatly enhanced.

For a fleeting moment, Elise even felt like the master of this divine realm of order.

Just then, she seemed to sense something, and looked up to see Ronald, who had died in front of her earlier, slowly walking down the stairs.

Although she already knew from Elira that Ronald was not dead, Elise still couldn't help but raise an eyebrow when she saw it with her own eyes.

Not only his appearance, but even the aura and presence he exuded were exactly the same as the deceased Ronald.

"Outsider, you seem quite surprised?"

"After all, I witnessed you die right in front of me. It's only natural to be surprised to see you now, isn't it?"

Ronald ignored Elise's words, simply saying, "Outsider, state your purpose."

The other party's friendly attitude was not unexpected for Elise. After all, she had felt the goodwill of the person behind the scenes in the Divine Realm of Order last time. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy for her to rescue Hattie back then.

"I wonder if you're interested in the skin of the God of Order?"

"What do you want?"

“I’d like to discuss the specifics with the person behind you.” Elise was very curious about the master of the Order of the Gods.

You will see her, but not now.

"she?"

A thoughtful look flashed in Elise's eyes. Although it was just a matter of gender, it was still very important information to her.

As things stand, the other party doesn't seem to want to meet with me yet, but so far they haven't made a move, which can be considered as showing enough goodwill.

"Okay, then let's talk about cooperation."

Volume 1: Chapter 500 You've been talking for too long

Near Ronald's estate, Sera sat quietly on the roof of a house, watching the entrance to the estate.

When she saw Elise emerge from the manor, Sera vanished from her spot and reappeared beside Elise in the next instant.

"It seems things have been settled?" Sera's gentle voice rang in Elise's ear.

Seeing that the other party appeared in front of her in her true form, Elise knew that Sera was now conscious. She nodded slightly and said, "The cooperation talks went unexpectedly smoothly. The other party seems to have no concern about the death last time."

I thought this kind of thing would take several days to argue about, but I didn't expect that even when I made some unreasonable demands, the other party would agree to them.

Even Elise was starting to suspect that the person behind the scenes had some unclear relationship with her, which was why they favored her so much.

Sera noticed Elise's confusion and chuckled, saying, "Anyway, as long as things get done, that's all that matters, isn't it?"

"That's right, now we need to help find the parts that are scattered."

The foundation for the revival of the God of Order is to first gather His scattered parts together, which makes Elise think of some kind of bead.

"Just like Dragon Ball, right?"

Hearing Sera's words, Elise couldn't help but smile: "That's right, only you know these things."

"Since I know you so well, why don't you come with me for a good shopping trip today?"

"I could be attacked at any moment now."

“I will kill all of them,” Sera said with a smile.

Elise certainly didn't doubt Sera's resolve; she was just saying it casually, and besides, those people were unlikely to make a move in a place like this.

"Then come with me to the Church of Aphrodite."
