Watching Elise's retreating figure, Wendy tilted her head as well. She didn't quite understand why Elise, who was clearly excited, was acting resistant.
Perhaps, this is just human nature.
After finding a reasonable explanation for herself, Wendy slowly closed the book she was reading.
The Female Mage vs. the Tentacle Monster
……
After Elise finished her bath and slipped away, she vaguely sensed Wendy's call.
That was the blessing ceremony initiated by Wendy.
Elise returned to room eight and responded to the other party's bestowal ceremony. After giving Wendy what she needed, she looked around the room with a slightly guilty conscience.
I wonder what the Earth Goddess would think if she knew that her bestowal ritual was being used for this kind of thing.
Anyway, Elise doesn't want to see that.
On the other side, in the church of the Earth Goddess, Wendy stood alone in front of the statue of the Earth Goddess. In front of her was a crown-like symbol, the mark of the Earth Goddess.
As the rich power of the earth burst forth, a set of neatly folded clothes appeared in the center of the ritual array, seemingly still retaining some warmth.
Volume 1: Chapter 266 Can I think about it for a moment?
The following day, at the Imperial Arena.
This is also the largest arena in the empire, and it is currently the venue for the academy exchange meetings to hold competitions and exchanges.
In addition to people from various colleges, it is also open to the general public. However, you need to buy a ticket to enter and watch the game. Although the ticket is not expensive, you can still make a lot of money by the end of the exchange.
Elise, Nora, and Flora sat in the academy's audience section. Each academy's audience section was a huge private room, fully stocked with all kinds of food and drinks, and served by dedicated waiters.
The user experience was excellent.
"It's so lively!" Nora said with a sigh as she looked at the packed audience seats.
"As we all know, the people of Seria live a pretty good standard of living. It's rare to have such a grand event held in Seria, so naturally there are quite a few people coming to watch."
Compared to Nora's surprise, Elise seemed much calmer. After all, she had been through countless near-death experiences and had attended countless academy exchange meetings. She had even seen many events that were much grander than this.
For example... when you are on the execution platform.
Thinking of this, Iris couldn't help but glance at a private room in the distance. Vivian wasn't with the students from the academy; after all, given her status, even if she were selected, she wouldn't actually participate in the battle.
So this time she was just a spectator.
But that's fine, since people die at the college exchange meetings almost every year, it's just a matter of how many die.
Although Vivian is the main character, her own strength is really not that great.
It was at this moment that the host began introducing the prizes.
The prizes for the competitions at the college exchange meeting are prepared by each college, with each college preparing a portion, and they are mostly good items.
Even Elise would be tempted by such a wonderful thing.
Each college is careful not to be stingy when preparing these awards, as there is a competitive element involved. If a college prepares something mediocre, it will not only be laughed at by other colleges for life, but it may even affect its student recruitment.
In such an environment, what is presented is naturally of the highest quality.
Nora gently nudged Elise with her shoulder and whispered, "What good stuff is in here?"
"Yes, there are quite a few. For example, that longsword, which was used by the Sword Saint Lansa. It would be quite useful to you."
"Is this the Sword Saint's former sword?" Nora looked at the sword with undisguised longing in her eyes. Since it was the Sword Saint's sword, the combat experience contained on it should be very useful to her.
However, Nora quickly composed herself. She glanced at the composed Elise beside her and noticed that the other woman hadn't shown any desire for anything from beginning to end. Curious, she asked, "Is there anything you want?"
"Judging from what you're saying, you're not planning to give me a gift, are you?" Elise leaned slightly closer to Nora, then turned her head and looked at her with a smile.
Nora didn't feel embarrassed at all when Elise suddenly got close to her. Instead, she looked into Elise's eyes very sincerely and said, "Yes, after all, you've helped me so much. Although I can't guarantee that I can get what you want, I will do my best."
“Since you’ve already said so, then I want that one~” Elise pointed to one of the elaborate and gorgeous long dresses. It was a special magical garment that not only had a strong protective effect, but could also change its form at will. Having one of these clothes was equivalent to having countless clothes.
“Okay, I will try my best,” Nora said without hesitation.
Just then, Flora gently tugged at Iris's sleeve and asked curiously, "Miss Iris, is there anything in here that could help my research?"
"That engraving knife is extremely helpful for engraving magical circuits. As long as you can get into the top twenty, you have a high probability of being selected. After all, most people wouldn't choose something used by magical craftsmen."
"I want to be in the top twenty!" Flora was very confident in her magical research, but she wasn't so good at combat.
However, Miss Iris also came up with a solution for her: to imitate Miss Iris's previous fighting style and use various magical devices to bombard her indiscriminately. This kind of consumption was not a problem for Flora at present.
The business of changing rings brought her extremely high income, an amount she never dared to dream of before, all thanks to Miss Elise's help.
After the host finished introducing the prizes, it was time for the lottery.
There were many colleges participating in the exchange meeting, and naturally, there were quite a few students as well. The chances of drawing a strong opponent in the first round were not high, but unfortunately, Elise's luck has never been very good.
In the first round, she drew a sixth-tier warrior as her opponent. He was a genius from a certain academy in the kingdom, who had reached the sixth tier at a young age and whose future was limitless.
Seeing the results of the draw, Elise sighed helplessly. She had wanted to slack off, but why was she given a high-level challenge right from the start, even though it wasn't exactly high-level?
However, she was unable to use the power of the evil god during the academy exchange meeting.
Nora clearly knew this too, so she asked Elise with some concern, "Are you alright?"
"It's okay, you don't really think I'm just a cult member, do you?"
Seeing Elise's confident demeanor, Nora didn't say anything more. After all, based on her understanding of Elise, the other party would never do anything without being sure of success.
The arena was large, and the battles were divided into several areas. After all, there were just too many people attending the exchange meeting, and it would take too long to hold the matches one by one.
Only in the mid-to-late stages will it revert to a single venue.
Spirit Alliance Fin Age No Similar to Father's Abandonment
Elise was in Zone C, appearing in the third round. The first two rounds of battles ended quickly, so Elise had barely arrived at the preparation area and hadn't even had a chance to sit down before it was her turn to enter the arena.
The battle between Elise and the sixth-tier warrior is quite interesting.
Some people came to gather information on the sixth-tier warriors, while others came to see Elise's charm; everyone had their own reasons for coming.
The sixth-tier warrior was a muscular man with a strong build. He wasn't wearing armor, just the academy uniform. He looked at Iris and said very politely, "Beautiful lady, I have no intention of being your enemy, nor do I want to see you get hurt. If possible, could you please withdraw?"
Upon hearing her words, Elise smiled and said, "Could you give me a moment to think about it?"
Although she said she was considering it, Elise kept taking out various magical artifacts from her spatial ring to build her own base.
The referee had already announced the start, yet they were still rambling on and on. They were really underestimated.
Volume 1: Chapter 267 Miss Wooden's Perverse Taste
At first, the sixth-tier warrior was still in a bit of a bind, but soon, seeing that Elise's movements hadn't stopped at all, he started sweating profusely.
The warriors disregarded any semblance of gentlemanly conduct and charged forward, preparing to launch their strongest attack on Iris before her magical artifacts could fully charge.
However, his actions were ultimately too late; the automatic magical guns had already begun firing, instantly unleashing a storm of bullets on the field.
The instructor in charge of the warrior's academy was furious when he saw this. The intelligence had clearly stated that Elise was a positional mage, yet they still gave her time to build her position.
If the opponent were just an ordinary field mage, that would be one thing, but the problem is that Iris is rich. Every magical artifact she uses is inlaid with magic crystals as power, so she doesn't need to expend much of her own magic power.
The barrage effectively halted the warriors' charge, followed by a fully charged magical cannon barrage.
A series of booming sounds echoed on the stage, attracting the attention of many people.
Although there were many exciting battles on other stages, only this one caused such a huge commotion.
The warrior struggled to dodge the bombardment of the magic cannons, but the sheer number of cannons firing simultaneously created a comprehensive barrage around him.
Moreover, it seemed the opponent knew where I would hide; after a series of attempts to dodge, I ultimately managed to avoid very few attacks.
Before the dust had settled, Elise launched another offensive, unleashing a powerful magical ray that swept across the battlefield, giving her opponents no chance to catch their breath.
The warrior raised a massive shield, barely managing to block the barrage of magical rays. But what followed were small magical flying vehicles, each carrying a magical bomb.
Before the warrior could react, the magical bombs landed behind him, emitting a series of loud explosions.
As expected, the warrior was sent flying, landing directly in front of Iris. He looked up and immediately saw the dark muzzle of the magical gun.
"After thinking about it, I feel that you should be the one to abstain."
"I think you're right."
With things having come to this point, the soldier decisively gave up, because he keenly noticed that the other side was about to pull the trigger. If he had just prepared to resist, he probably would have had a sudden change of heart.
As the referee announced Elise's victory, cheers erupted from the audience, and even the teachers at the Magic Academy were quite surprised.
It seems that no one expected that Elise's use of magical devices had reached such a terrifying level. At the same time, some teachers have realized why Elise rarely comes to class, and even when she does, she is so inattentive.
Throughout the battle, Elise didn't even move an inch.
After putting away all the magical artifacts around her, Elise casually returned to the academy's spectator lounge.
Previously, many people thought that Elise was simply rich, but now it seems that she is not only rich, but also highly skilled in the use of magical artifacts.
As soon as Elise sat down, Flora exclaimed excitedly, "Miss Elise is amazing!"
"It's alright, you can do it too."
"I will try my best," Flora said earnestly.
The battle between Flora and Nora was not in any suspense, especially Nora's fight. Nora, wearing magical armor, slapped her opponent off the stage in one move. It felt like that big fight should leave a great psychological shadow on Nora's opponent.
Elise had three battles today. In the last two battles, her opponents were unable to get close to her immediately and stop her from building a position, so they basically gave up after a token resistance.
Sanling Lingqi Jiuwu Baqun Liao
After all, none of them have the physique of a sixth-tier warrior. If they were hit by a magic cannon, they would probably be dead in no time.
"Wake up."
Elise, who was dozing off against Nora, slowly opened her eyes as Nora gently shook her.
Elise, who had just woken up, still had a hazy sleepiness in her eyes. She even clung to Nora's arm, nuzzling against her shoulder, as if she wanted to stay in bed longer.
The students who hadn't left yet stared wide-eyed at what they saw.
Are these two really acting? If they are acting, do they need to go to this extent?
Although Nora didn't care about the stares of those around her, she still patted Elise's shoulder with a hint of helplessness: "Wake up, we should go back."
How could she not see that Elise was doing this on purpose?
She just likes doing these strange things. Anyway, Nora doesn't quite understand the other person's psychology, but as long as Elise is happy, that's all that matters.
"Okay~" Elise covered her mouth and yawned lazily, then looked at Nora with a smile: "I don't really want to move, why don't you carry me back~"
Elise thought Nora would find a reason to refuse, but to her surprise, Nora picked her up by the waist, even Flora, who was standing next to her, was stunned.
Now it was Elise's turn to feel embarrassed.
"Maybe I should just forget about it and walk by myself."
Elise tugged at Nora's hand, but even she couldn't break free from Nora's embrace for the time being.
A flustered Elise didn't notice the smile in Nora's eyes.
"Didn't you say you wanted me to carry you back?" Nora said matter-of-factly.
"I... I wasn't fully awake."
At Elise's insistence, Nora finally managed to put Elise down before leaving the private room.
Looking at Nora's calm expression, Elise felt like something was off.
But before she could think further, Nora asked in confusion, "Let's go, aren't we going back?"
"Coming~"
Elise followed Nora and slowly left the arena.
As soon as she stepped out the door, she saw the little maid who was there to greet her. She smiled and placed her hand on the maid's head, saying, "Misha, did you like the fireworks Miss set off today?"
"It looks great!" the little maid answered without hesitation.
"But Miss, I'm sore all over from setting off those fireworks today, what should I do?"
"Then I'll give Miss a shoulder massage when we get back!"
Flora blinked, wondering why Miss Iris, who had been standing still since her appearance earlier that day, was suddenly sore all over.
Forget it, she doesn't understand these things. She should hurry back to study her magical artifacts. She's been researching magical armor recently, but she wants to add too many functions, which makes it difficult to control the size of the armor.
I wonder if Miss Elise has any solutions?
