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

However, thanks to her other self, her control over the Fallen Angel form has been greatly improved, and even the duration of use has been extended.

"Gulp, just kill me." Elena lay sprawled on the ground, having given up struggling.

But death did not follow immediately. Another voice of his own rang out: "That's all for now. The train is almost at its destination."

Upon hearing her words, Elena was stunned for a moment, and then the burning church collapsed before her eyes, and she woke up from her dream.

The familiar scent of morning dew and flowers quickly woke Elena up.

When she came to, she found herself leaning on Elise's shoulder, her clothes wet with drool from sleeping.

That's strange. She doesn't drool when she sleeps. Could it be a problem with her sleeping posture?

Just as Elena was wondering, Iris's gentle voice rang out: "You're finally awake. How does it feel to have slept for a day and a night?"

Elise turned to look at Elena, and at the same time, she moved her stiff body slightly.

"You, you didn't just stay like this for a whole day and night, did you?"

"Yes, I'm the employer, yet I've done so much for you. How are you going to repay me?"

"How about I work for you for another day without pay?"

"It seems that my efforts are only worth a day in your eyes," Elise said, letting out a soft sigh.

"Three days, okay, seven days should be fine, right?"

"The dress I'm wearing was custom-made by Lady Mary and it's worth over a hundred gold coins."

"Half a month, absolutely no more!" Elena said through gritted teeth.

"Deal~"

Volume 1: Chapter 116 Not Saying It Means It's Okay

The magical train arrived at the Qidaangto station. At that cold time, the sun shone faintly through the air, and the streets were sparsely populated.

Standing at the station entrance, Iris yawned lazily, then said to her maid, "Misha, find a carriage. We're going to the Dream Hotel."

"Yes."

The maid nodded gently, and soon found a carriage. After arriving at the hotel, Elise booked a luxury suite this time.

侕零?鷗留_氿箘

The apartment has several rooms, so even if Wendy, Rumia, and the others come, there will still be enough room for them to stay.

The Dream Hotel has twelve floors, which is considered a very tall building in a place like Anto.

Their room was on the tenth floor, and the balcony offered a very nice view.

However, Elise wasn't interested in the scenery for the time being. As soon as she entered the room, she said directly to Elena and Isabella, "Two people per room, you can discuss and choose. I'm going to take a shower and rest first."

After saying that, she turned to the maid and told her to prepare a bath for her.

After taking a bath with the help of her maid, Elise went straight to the master bedroom's large bed to catch up on sleep.

She didn't sleep for a day and a night, and that's no exaggeration. However, it wasn't for keeping watch; she was just thinking about what to do next along the way.

She is only temporarily safe now, and there are still many potential threats to deal with, so she needs to take every step carefully.

Looking at her mistress who was already asleep in bed, the little maid blinked her cute big eyes and began to wonder if she could lie down next to her mistress.

Based on my understanding, there shouldn't be any problem. After all, the young lady didn't say she couldn't lie down on it, so if she didn't say so, then it's okay!

Having made her decision, the maid lay down next to Iris, but she didn't dare get too close, afraid of disturbing Iris's sleep.

But not long after, Elise turned around and hugged the little maid, clearly using her as a pillow.

But in the little maid's eyes, this was all the young lady's love for her!

Elise slept straight through until evening.

If she hadn't been hungry, she might have continued sleeping.

Releasing the little maid from her arms, Elise slowly sat up and took out her pocket watch to check the time.

Just then, the little maid woke up, a sweet smile on her adorable face: "Miss, you're awake~"

"Xiaomi is getting bolder and bolder. She actually came to my bed without my permission. How should I punish you?"

"Miss, you can punish me however you like." The little maid knelt on the bed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

In her little mind, she had already begun to imagine the scene of her young mistress tying her to the bed and punishing her severely.

Unfortunately, she was clearly too timid, and Elise simply flicked the little maid's forehead and let her off the hook.

The maid was a little disappointed that the punishment she expected did not come. After rubbing her forehead, which was not sore, she quickly got up and followed her mistress out of the room.

In the suite's spacious living room, only Isabella sat quietly, flipping through books. As an elf, she needed a lot of knowledge to seek revenge and survive in human society.

Therefore, she will seize every opportunity to enrich herself.

Just as Elise was about to ask her where Elena had gone, she heard the door being pushed open.

Upon entering the house and seeing Elise, Elena raised an eyebrow and said, "You're finally awake."

"Where did you just go?"

"I went out for a walk and gathered some information along the way." Elena sat down on the sofa, took a sip of water, and then continued to Elise, "I just heard people talking about the Saintess's team being attacked by cultists, but there wasn't much specific information."

"It is said that the train was attacked by cultists before it entered the border city of Alba."

Elise frowned slightly. This was somewhat different from her plan. Her original plan was to launch the attack after Rumia's team left the border city. Why was the attack brought forward?

Noticing the change in Elise's expression, Eileen couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"Hmm, I'll try to contact Wendy first."

As Elise spoke, she took out a cocoon from her spatial ring. After sensing the fluctuation of magic, the cocoon broke open, and a beautiful butterfly fluttered its wings and landed on Elise's shoulder.

After a few chirps and a brief exchange, the butterfly indicated that it had not yet received any message from Wendy.

The distance between Onto and the border city of Alba is too great, requiring a large number of insects as communication relays. Although she released a large number of insects as soon as she arrived in Onto, the construction of the relay station does not seem to be completed yet.

It may take some time before we get a reply from Wendy.

As for Lumia and Wendy's comfort, Iris wasn't too worried. Wendy and Winnie were both level 87 experts, and Lumia was comparable to a level 7 expert. Even if a level 8 expert attacked, they would be able to escape safely.

Elise always felt that this was not just a simple cult attack.

We need to wait for them to contact us for more details.

Elise snapped her fingers, and the butterfly that had been on her shoulder flew to her hair and remained motionless, just like a butterfly-shaped headdress, adding to Elise's already beautiful charm.

"Alright, we still can't get in touch with them. Let's go get something to eat first."

"Aren't you worried?"

“There’s no use worrying now, since we don’t have a way to teleport long distances.” As she said this, Elise couldn’t help but think of Sally.

With her spatial magic talent, she can learn long-distance teleportation. We must find a way to keep her by our side, as even Elise can't find a more suitable means of transportation for the time being.

Ento was bustling at night, and this time Elise fulfilled Elena's expectations by taking the group directly to a high-end restaurant in the city center.

The prices of the dishes here are all in gold coins.

Elena was initially quite looking forward to it, but unfortunately, the taste here was far inferior to that of the restaurant in the dark alley.

All she wanted now was for Wendy and her group to arrive quickly so she could go to the alley to enjoy the real food.

After finishing her meal, Elise was planning to take everyone for a walk around the neighborhood, but just then, the butterfly in her hair made a few chirping sounds that only Elise could hear and understand.

"Hello? Can you hear me?" Although it was just the chirping of insects, Elise could almost picture Wendy trying to send a signal.

"Well, how's the situation on your end?"

“We weren’t attacked, but were taken away by people from the Eternal Church. But don’t worry, we’ve taken care of them. We’re on the train to Angto now, and we should be there for you by tomorrow morning if nothing goes wrong.”

Volume 1: Chapter 117 About to Transform into Elise's Shape

The next day, early in the morning.

Iris had only just gotten up when Lumia and her group arrived at the hotel.

Upon seeing Iris, whom she hadn't seen for two whole days, Rumia pounced on her without saying a word, like a dog reunited after a long separation.

However, the maid was prepared and stood between the two.

Rumia murmured softly, using divine magic to create an illusion on the spot, attempting to confuse the little maid while bypassing her.

But such illusions clearly failed to deceive the little maid, who once again blocked Rumia's path.

Just as the two were pulling back and forth, Wendy had quietly moved closer to Elise, but when she tried to get any closer, Elise pressed her cheek down.

With her face pressed down, Wendy stuck out her tongue and gently licked Iris's palm. After watching Iris reluctantly withdraw her hand, Wendy licked her lips with satisfaction.

Elise's tastes as tempting as ever.

"Tell me, what exactly happened over there?"

“Before we reached the border city, the Eternal Church contacted her.” Wendy pointed to Rumia, who was still arguing with the little maid, “and said they needed her to cooperate, and then the church launched an attack.”

Seeing that Elise had already started discussing serious matters with Wendy, Rumia didn't continue to linger with the little maid. She composed herself slightly and said directly to Elise, "The church wants me to make one last contribution before leaving the empire."

"The Holy Maiden of the Eternal Church was attacked by cultists within the Empire's borders. The Church probably wants this as a pretext." In fact, she had already made a rough guess after receiving Wendy's message last night.

Rumia nodded, subtly moving closer to Iris as she said, "The Church has always wanted to establish churches in the Empire to spread its faith, but the Empire's attitude is very tough. Over the years, they haven't found any breakthrough and can only operate in the shadows."

"I also came to the Empire this time with the idea of ​​seeking a breakthrough, but unfortunately there was still no success. The only gain was probably the Sixth Prince."

Elise knew that the Sixth Prince had become a lackey of the Church. As long as Eve's storyline progressed and the imprisoned elves were successfully rescued, the Sixth Prince would lose his biggest bargaining chip. Not only would those chips disappear, but he would also get himself into a lot of trouble.

They tried to modify the elixir of immortality, but they crossed the line for many people.

Having lost its competitive edge, the sixth prince has no choice but to cooperate with the church if he still wants to contend for the throne.

Upon hearing the news of the sixth prince, Isabella couldn't help but clench her fists.

“He had no choice but to be the church’s dog.” Rumia spoke of the sixth prince with particular coldness, but then a smile of excitement spread across her face as she grabbed Iris’s arm: “Just like me, I can only be your dog~”

"Ah, you perverted saintess, let go of my young lady!" The little maid realized that she had to be extremely vigilant when facing this shameless saintess, otherwise she would lean on her young lady at the drop of a hat and say such shameful things.

Of course, if the young lady wanted her to do that, she could accept it.

After another round of playful fighting, Rumia, who had been pulled away, continued, "I was ready to cooperate with their performance and planned to make them disappear after it was over. But just as they launched their attack, the cultists you arranged also started fighting."

"It was my mistake. I should have made them follow your orders."

When Elizabeth was dreaming, she only wanted those cult followers to attack Ruthmia after she left the Imperial Army. She thought there shouldn't be any problems, but she didn't expect the Eternal Church to not even let go of this opportunity.

It seems they're really envious of the empire's faith over there.

"No, how could you make a mistake? Rather, it was just a perfect opportunity. I had Vanessa take action, forcing both sides to perish together, and I just happened to disappear as well."

"I reckon the church has already received news of your disappearance."

"Hmm." Rumia seemed completely unconcerned, as if she weren't the one who had gone missing.

"There will likely be some wrangling between the Church and the Empire, and the Church will probably send people to search for you, so you need to keep your disguise in."

"Well, don't worry."

Besides its bewitching power, Rumia's 'holy face' can also make people suddenly aware of her presence.

That's the ability he used to carry Elise up the clock tower in front of everyone.

Just then, Rumia suddenly said excitedly to Iris, "I think I'm still too conspicuous right now. How about I disguise myself as your maid?"

"also."

"Then I'll go change my clothes now."

If only Iris were present, she would change her clothes in front of Iris without hesitation, but Rumia would not do such a thing if others were present.

A moment later, Rumia, now dressed in a maid outfit, appeared before Iris, blushing slightly as she softly called out, "Miss~"

As a saintess, she never imagined that one day she would have to disguise herself as a maid and act humble. The stark contrast made Rumia extremely excited.

If Elise, as her master, made some excessive demands on her while she was disguised as a maid, she probably wouldn't be able to refuse, right?

Thinking of this, Lumia also raised her head slightly and looked at Iris with expectant eyes.

Elise knew exactly what Rumia was thinking, and she wasn't in the mood to do *that* with Rumia for the time being.

“Try infusing it with the power of faith.” Elise took out the Angel Ring.

As a saintess, Rumia naturally knew what Iris was holding. Although she didn't know what the infusion of faith power was for, she obediently did as she was told, since she was an obedient maid.
