"Ok, I know."
She had previously experienced some memories of her past life with Elise in the memory exhibition hall. She found that Elise seemed to value the arrival of the new year very much. She remembered that the first time she spent New Year's Eve with Elise, Elise had prepared a lot of delicious food by hand. The food was something she had never eaten before, and it seemed to be called dumplings.
Anyway, it tastes delicious, but unfortunately, she has only experienced that flavor in the memory exhibition hall and has never tasted it in reality.
If I ask Elise to make it for me when I get back, I wonder if she'll be willing?
I feel like if I bring her a gift she likes back, there shouldn't be any problem, right?
After ending its conversation with Elise, the butterfly that had been perched on her shoulder retracted its antennae and transformed back into a cocoon.
Nora casually put the cocoon away, then muttered to herself, "How much longer until we catch up with that monster?"
"three……"
"Three more days?"
If Elise hadn't contacted her, three days wouldn't have meant much to her, but Elise had just contacted her, and she was starting to think about going back to Seria.
"two……"
As the ethereal voice faded, Nora felt the earth tremble. She looked ahead with some excitement, not even paying attention to the countdown to the last number.
An enormous whale-like monster leaped out of the sand sea, and Nora also used her magic to accelerate, turning into a phantom and disappearing from the spot in an instant.
She certainly wouldn't be so reckless as to kill this terrifying monster; her goal was to build ancient ruins on the back of this giant whale-like monster.
On the other side, after ending her communication with Nora, Elise lazily stretched her body. She had indeed been quite tired during this period, but now that she was back, she decided to go and see the Land of Hope.
Vivian seems to be busy with something lately. The development of Hope Land has been temporarily handed over to Lily, and Theresa is also in Hope Land.
However, before heading to the Land of Hope, we need to settle Sera first.
Sera, who possesses Elise's memories, is identifying herself as Elise's Sera. She is currently confronting the maid, but she does not lay a hand on the maid and even maintains a gentle attitude towards the cold-faced maid.
"I already told you, this is Miss's room!" The little maid stood at the door of her mistress's room, watching Sera warily. Just as she was about to arrange a room for her, Sera said that this was her house, that she had a room here, and then tried to go directly into her mistress's room!
Although she knew that her mind was not quite right, she would never allow her to stay in her young mistress's room under any circumstances!
“I am your young lady,” Sera said matter-of-factly.
Elena, who was originally prepared to watch the drama unfold, stiffened her expression after hearing Sera's words.
Volume 1: Chapter 373 Iris's Expectations
"What's going on?"
Elise moved closer to Elena from behind, stood on tiptoe, and rested her chin on Elena's shoulder. Since there was a height difference between them, this was the only way she could get up.
Suddenly hearing Elise's voice, the wicked woman even blew a few breaths into her ear, making Elena feel a tickle in her ear.
However, she was now used to Elise's teasing and didn't pay too much attention to it. She simply pointed to the maid and Sera who were confronting each other and said, "Sera said that your room is her room and the maid won't let her in."
"Oh, I see~"
Seeing that Elise wasn't doing anything and was still blowing air into her ear, Elena couldn't help but wonder, "Aren't you going to stop her?"
"There's no need for that; Sera will concede."
It's hard to say if it were the old Serah Elise, but now, influenced by her own soul imprint, Serah sees herself as Elise and will definitely give way to the little maid. Elise has that confidence; it's just a matter of time.
Elena had no idea where Elise got her confidence from. Just as she was about to ask, she saw Sera sigh and then choose another room instead.
A look of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw this scene. Elise, that wicked woman, is quite something. How did she guess it?
"Aren't you curious about how I guessed it? If you want to know, I can tell you~"
"Never mind, I'm not that curious."
After Elena finished speaking, she turned and left, intending to go see her sister and then come back to get some rest.
Although she had been traveling a long way, she wasn't tired. But Sera's words made her think a lot, and even now she is still struggling with whether she really killed Elise.
She recalled the phantom she had seen in Elise's hometown, the one who had once drawn her sword against Elise.
Watching Elena's slightly melancholy figure, Elise couldn't help but tilt her head, a pleasant smile appearing on her lips. She could tell that Elena was still struggling with that matter.
Elise guessed that the other party would definitely be able to guess that she had killed her, but she didn't know if they could deduce exactly how many times she had killed her.
In fact, Elise died at Elena's hands quite a few times, after all, the time when she first transmigrated was very delicate.
In addition, she was unable to adjust her mindset properly when she first transmigrated, which led to her being killed by Elena many, many times.
Although a long time has passed, Elise still feels phantom pain in her body when she recalls it.
I really want to see Elena remember those things.
Meanwhile, Elena, having left the manor, soon arrived at her sister's magic workshop.
Just as she was about to knock on the door, she heard a loud bang from inside. Fortunately, Flora's magic workshop was surrounded by a silence barrier; otherwise, Seria's guards would have already come to check the situation based on the sound.
Hearing the commotion coming from inside the workshop, Elena pushed open the door and went inside without hesitation.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw a thick cloud of smoke rushing towards her. Elena casually released a gust of wind to blow the smoke and dust outside before entering the workshop.
You can see your sister hiding in a corner, holding up a huge shield, and the workshop is in complete disarray.
Hearing footsteps, Flora peeked out and, seeing it was her sister, stepped out from behind her shield and asked, "Sister, when did you get back?"
"You've only been back a short while, what happened to you just now?"
"I was just trying to inscribe two different magic arrays on a magic flying sword, but unfortunately I failed. However, it wasn't my idea that was wrong, but rather that the material of the magic flying sword was not up to standard. I may need to find a way to create a more powerful magic flying sword first."
Flora excitedly recounted her discoveries from the experiment, but her voice gradually faded as she noticed her sister looking somewhat strange.
She blinked and then said, "Sister, you seem a little unhappy?"
"Is it that obvious?"
“Of course, if I can see it, how could it not be obvious?” Flora said proudly.
Hearing her words, Elena couldn't help but twitch her lips. What was there to be proud of?
"What happened?"
Actually, talking to someone about certain things can make you feel much better, but she simply doesn't know how to talk to her sister about those kinds of things.
Elena sighed softly, then ruffled her sister's hair and said, "I'm just a little tired, I'll be fine after a rest."
"Then you should go and rest."
"Ah."
After watching her sister leave the workshop, Flora's smile gradually disappeared. They were sisters, after all. Could she not tell if her sister had something on her mind or was just tired?
But since her sister wouldn't tell her, there was nothing she could do.
Why don't we find some time to talk to Miss Elise? If it's Miss Elise, she'll definitely have a way to improve her sister's mood, right?
For some reason, a faint blush appeared on Flora's face.
She rubbed her cheeks and quickly returned to her magical experiments.
However, soon after, another explosion came from the magic workshop, but no sound came out from under the silence barrier.
...Cangjiu
Night, after dinner. (Ling Si)
Elise was getting ready to take a shower when Flora came up to her.
Seeing Flora approach her, a hint of curiosity flashed in Iris's eyes: "What's wrong?"
"Um, Miss Elise, my sister seems to be troubled. Do you know what's wrong?"
Under Flora's clear gaze, even Iris felt a little embarrassed, after all, Elena's transformation was due to her.
However, Elise wouldn't admit to such a thing. She smiled and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem. I'll go check it out later."
"Thank you very much, Miss Elise."
"Nothing much. More importantly, have you made any progress with the forbidden library?"
“Yes,” Flora nodded, then said excitedly, “I’ve found a way to enter the Forbidden Library, but I can’t yet confirm the risks involved, so I wanted to discuss it with you.”
"That's perfect! I'm about to take a bath now, why don't you come along?"
"Huh?" 4
Volume 1: Chapter 374 How could you possibly have killed me? 7
In the manor's bath, Elise sat comfortably, enjoying the soothing sensation of her body being enveloped in hot water.
Besides the maid, Flora, looking quite nervous, was also soaking in the pool with her.
Although this wasn't the first time something like this had happened, Flora felt inexplicably nervous every time she bathed with Miss Iris, and she didn't even know where to look.
She actually felt quite strange. Even though they were both girls, she felt a sense of déjà vu that she would offend Miss Iris if she looked at her in this situation.
But deep down she felt a strange excitement; she didn't really know what was going on with her feelings.
Just as Flora was lost in thought, Elise's gentle voice suddenly rang out: "Regarding the Forbidden Library, if you find a way to enter, then just go in. The dangers inside are nothing to you."
"Oh."
Flora didn't doubt Elise's words at all. After all, she was able to find the way into the forbidden library thanks to Miss Elise's hint, and she believed that Miss Elise would never harm her.
"Well, the Magic Academy is still on the front lines. I can only try to get in once they return to Seria."
Since the Empire and the Kingdom went to war, the Magic Academy has entered a wartime mode, transforming itself into an aerial magic fortress.
As for the students of the Magic Academy, some remained at the Magic Academy, while others studied at a temporary academy within Seria.
Although it was only a temporary academy, it had all the necessary facilities, and the course arrangements were no different from before; it was just in a different location.
Speaking of which, since the Magic Academy temporarily moved to a different location, Iris hasn't attended any classes yet.
After all, attending classes was no different from wasting time for her.
"No rush. If nothing unexpected happens, the Magic Academy should return to Seria in about a month. Then you can try to get your hair in."
"A month later?"
A look of doubt flashed in Flora's eyes. She didn't quite understand why Miss Iris could say the exact time of the Magic Academy's return so accurately.
"I can't tell you the specific reasons, but you'll find out when the time comes."
"Oh."
Since Iris had already said so, Flora didn't ask any further questions. All she wanted to do now was to quickly enter the Forbidden Library and find the magical technology for storing magic power so that she could make a giant magical armor.
Thinking about all this, Flora's mind, which had been somewhat chaotic because of Iris, was instantly brought back to normal.
Seeing that Flora, who was a little nervous just moments ago, had instantly changed her mindset, Iris couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. It seemed that in Flora's eyes, she was ultimately not as tempting as magical technology.
But how should Flora deal with a situation where she has unique insights into magical technology?
With that in mind, Elise began to use her experience of dying and coming back to life for so long to discuss topics related to magical artifacts with Flora.
It's important to know that Elise has been reborn countless times and has witnessed the development of magical artifacts countless times. Even if she just casually mentioned it, it could greatly inspire Flora.
At this moment, Flora felt that Miss Iris was the epitome of perfection. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also incredibly skilled in the research of magical artifacts. If only…
No, no, Miss Elise is my sister's lover, how could I have such strange thoughts?
Flora felt a little dizzy, whether from soaking in the bath for too long or from overthinking. She quickly got up, dried herself, changed her clothes, and left.
Watching Flora flee as if on the run, Iris covered her mouth and chuckled softly. Teasing Flora occasionally was quite amusing.
……
It's late at night.
At this moment, Elena was lying quietly in bed, her consciousness already transferred to her dream, to the burning church.
The ice dragon Fran lay upright on the ground. Although the two Elenas did not conceal its presence while talking and chatting, it still felt that it was better not to know too much.
So Fran simply knocked herself unconscious.
Looking at the stiff-chested Fran, Elena twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Its will to survive is so strong."
"Actually, I could make it forget those memories, but since it wants to faint, let it faint," Elena said calmly in her dream.
"So, you're not here to fight this time?"
"Can't you tell what I'm here for?" Elena glanced at her dream self.
“I’ve already said those things. They were things we did, but they weren’t. You don’t have to take them to heart.”
