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

In the evening, Elira and Iris were sitting in the carriage on their way back to the manor.

Elira glanced cautiously at Elise, who was leaning on her shoulder, her expression somewhat melancholy.

She had already defended against Elise's attacks all day, and given Elise's personality, she should be ready to kill her by now. So why was Elise leaning against her so comfortably?

Wasn't I good enough for Nora?

Recalling what happened today, Elira really couldn't figure out what went wrong.

Just as Elira was wondering, Elise's gentle voice rang in her ears: "You're acting too much like Nora. Not everyone can be a block of wood."

How did you know what I was thinking?

"Nora may often act like a block of wood, but even a block of wood has its moments of blossoming. How can you be as wooden from beginning to end as you are?"

"I see. It seems I still don't understand Miss Nora enough. Next time... there probably won't be a next time, right?"

Whether there will be a next time depends not on me, but on you.

"I'll forgive you this time because you were so gentle with me last night."

"what?"

Volume 1: Chapter 747 I Can't Contact Her

"You, how did you know?"

Elira's face was full of panic, and even her fair cheeks flushed with a shy blush.

She clearly sensed last night that Elise was already fast asleep, so how could she still detect her little movements?

Leaning against Elira, Iris languidly whispered in her ear, "Have you forgotten that I possess the power over dreams?"

Even when Elise is asleep, she can still perceive everything happening around her through the mark of sloth.

Besides, she didn't sleep very soundly last night either.

"Ah↘↗ I never expected that Miss Irelia, who is usually so honest and unassuming, would use her abilities to spy on me while I sleep at night. This is probably what they mean by 'don't judge a book by its cover'~" As she said this, Iris also revealed just the right amount of disdain.

If Rumia were here, being stared at like that would only make her tremble with excitement, but for Elira, it was blatant humiliation!

Her eyes were lifeless as she made a final attempt to protest: "I didn't, I didn't, I had a reason for doing this!"

"Then tell me, what is your so-called reason?"

Elira instinctively wanted to explain, but remembering Estella's earlier instructions, the words caught in her throat. 6

"Or, you could just think of me as a pervert." Elira turned her head away, choosing to proceed directly. 9

She felt so great for doing this for Iris that Estella should pay her for emotional distress.

"Even if you're considered a pervert, you don't want to tell the truth?" As Elise spoke, a mark of pleasure appeared in her eyes, both eerie and alluring.

At this point, Elira was already feeling the pressure, feeling that if she didn't say something soon, Elise might seduce her.

Although her will was very strong, she was not confident that she could resist Elise's charm. In order to avoid saying something she shouldn't have, she could only rack her brains and come up with a suitable reason in the shortest amount of time: "You have been acting a little strange lately."

Hearing Elira's words, the joyful impression in Elise's eyes gradually disappeared, and she tilted her head: "What's so strange about it? Haven't I always been like this?"

“Normally, you sit in a corner drinking tea and watching the show whenever there’s a battle, but back in Emerald City, you were at the forefront. Don’t you think that was too dangerous?”

“That’s because I know the Emerald City very well,” Elise said matter-of-factly.

"No, given your personality, even if you know a lot about the Emerald City, you would rarely take the initiative to act. At most, you would just talk and tell us what to do."

Elira hadn't noticed any of this at first, but the more she talked about it, the more she felt that Elise's condition was a bit off.

“I’ve been observing you ever since I returned from the Emerald City, and last night I discovered that you were trying to harm yourself. That’s the main reason why I’m using my abilities to monitor you.”

"Is that so?"

Elise recalled her state last night and realized that something was indeed a little off. Even though she wasn't a favorite of the goddess of pain, she felt pleasure because of pain.

She looked down at her fair and slender hands, and for some reason felt a desire to cover them with scars. If Elena or Nora saw her covered in wounds, they would definitely feel sorry for her.

Elise could already picture their expressions.

Elira, who was standing nearby, keenly noticed that Elise's mental state seemed to be off again.

She quickly grabbed the other person's hand and said, "Don't be impulsive! If the little maid sees you're injured, she'll be very sad!"

"Little maid" was like a safe word. Upon hearing this familiar address, Iris's sickly smile gradually faded, and she softly replied, "Hmm, you're right."

Seeing that Elise seemed to have calmed down, Elira silently breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had displayed amazing wisdom in the blink of an eye, which prevented Elise from having another episode.

However, on the other hand, the little maid seems to occupy a very important place in Iris's heart, like an anchor point.

She felt a strange sense of envy.

It's a bit strange, really. Estella has already taken action, so it shouldn't take too long for her to bring the little maid back, right?

Did something happen that prevented them from getting back in time?

Just then, the carriage stopped in front of Elira's mansion. She got out first, then walked to the other side, opened the carriage door, and gracefully extended her hand to Iris.

Elise placed her hand on Elira's, a faint smile appearing on her face: "You're actually quite good at this, aren't you?"

"After all, I've been a nobleman several times, so I still know those complicated etiquette rules."

After the two returned to the manor, Elira also slumped lazily on the sofa. Although the date with Elise seemed to go quite well, constantly having to keep an eye on her mental state was too tiring for her.

Hopefully, next time I won't have to think about so many unnecessary things.

No, there shouldn't be a next time, right?

After all, she had no romantic feelings for Elise; her concern for Elise was simply because she didn't want anything to happen to Elise, which could lead to the destruction of the world.

"Speaking of which, the little maid has been gone for many days now. I wonder if she's finished with her work yet?"

Hearing Elira's words, Elise couldn't help but miss her thoughtful little maid. She snapped her fingers, and a butterfly quickly flew into the living room, its slender tentacles reaching into Elise's ear.

Given the speed of the insect network, it should only take a few seconds to contact the maid.

However, this time the maid has gone missing.

Elise's expression gradually darkened, but thankfully, the blood left by the little maid was still full of vitality, which meant that the little maid was not in any immediate danger.

Logically speaking, with Sera accompanying the maid, there shouldn't be any accidents while she's doing the finishing touches.

Elise then contacted Sera, whose situation was the same as the maid's.

Undeterred, Elise used the Mirror of Omniscience again, only to find chaos, indicating it had been blocked.

However, only beings of the ninth rank or higher can block the Mirror of Omniscience...

Elira, who was standing nearby, knew something was wrong after noticing the change in Iris's expression.

After hesitating for a moment, she cautiously asked, "Um, what happened to the little maid?"

"I can't get in touch with her."

Spicy balls!

Volume 1: Chapter 748 It turns out he was eaten

Elira unconsciously pinched the hem of her clothes. Having been reborn hundreds of times, she rarely felt this nervous anymore.

Even when faced with the cataclysm of destruction, she could face it calmly, but now...

Although Elise's expression appeared calm, the calmer she was, the more abnormal it seemed.

She was now starting to worry about the little maid's safety. Although Miss Sera was with her, and even Estella had gone over, there shouldn't be any problems.

But she couldn't even imagine what would happen to Elise if something happened to the little maid.

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush. Why don't you try the alchemical doll Estella gave you? Maybe you can find the position of little maid?"

“Hmm, I was just about to give it a try,” Elise said, summoning the alchemical doll.

After receiving the order to find the little maid, the alchemical doll also began to use the power of fate.

A thread of fate extended from the alchemical doll's fingertip, searching for the other's location through the traces of fate left by the little maid.

After this continued for some time, the golden thread of fate suddenly dimmed, and the alchemical doll took this opportunity to tell Iris the location where the little maid had last appeared.

The underground city of Tosa.

Located in the northwest of the kingdom, this city is an underground metropolis built deep underground, and it is also one of the more unique cities in the kingdom.

It is also the largest gathering place for dwarves.

Unlike elves, dwarves cannot have their flesh and blood refined into elixirs of immortality, and they are also skilled in various forging techniques, so dwarves are generally very popular in human cities.

Upon learning that the maid's last known location was Tosa, Elise couldn't help but frown.

This is because Tosa is home to not only a large number of dwarves, but also a significant number of werewolves.

These werewolves usually hide among humans, and unless they actively transform, no one can usually detect them.

Moreover, the underground city effectively isolates the moon, so even on the night of a blood moon, the werewolves will not lose control.

Over time, Tosa attracted a large number of werewolves.

If nothing unexpected happens, the maid's disappearance is likely related to the werewolf.

After all, the Moon-devouring Beast worshipped by werewolves was a mortal enemy of the true progenitor of the vampires.

However, ordinary werewolves certainly cannot pose a threat to the little maid and Sera, not even at the ninth rank.

Unless it's a demigod or higher, then things might get a bit complicated.

With that in mind, Elise directly contacted Elena and Nora through the insect network, asking them to go directly to Tosa. Currently, there are not many people in her camp who can face demigods or even gods directly, and they are two of them.

As for Vivian, her situation is too special and she's been pushed too far, so it's not appropriate to call her over as well.

There's also Elsa, who can achieve divine intervention through her own body without having to appear in person to avoid alerting the enemy.

Just to be on the safe side, Elise even called Wendy over and had her enter her body, so that Elise could enter her insect form at any time.

After learning the location where the little maid was last seen, Elise made arrangements in a very short time.

Sally, who was suddenly called back from the void, felt a strange tension in the air and was a little confused. She wanted to ask something but didn't dare to speak.

It was only after Elira glanced at her that she gave a brief explanation.

Upon hearing that the maid had gone missing, Sally's pupils dilated in shock. Anyone who had spent a long time with Elise would know the special connection the maid held for her.

No wonder the atmosphere here is so tense.

Seeing Sally's cautious demeanor, Elise said with amusement, "I haven't even started to feel nervous yet, so what's there for you to be nervous about?"

"We'll start to panic when you get nervous," Elira thought to herself.

"Well, where are we going now?"

"The underground city of Tosa, do you know where it is?"

"Oh, shall we set off now?"

"Ah."

Nora and Elena both possess long-distance teleportation abilities, so once the location is given to them, they should be able to arrive and meet up with her quickly.

Sally glanced at the two-headed evil dragon sisters who were already prepared, and asked in a low voice, "Shouldn't we inform Miss Lily?"

“不用2了，如果有需9要的4话再喊0她过来好了。4”3＾5+6∶4＾☆

Although the little maid has gone missing, Elise is not too worried, after all, Sera is by her side, and if necessary, Sera can even ascend to the throne again in a short time.

In Sera's words, even she herself was afraid of her after ascending to the throne of God.

"lets go."

"Oh."

Sally responded softly, then activated a long-distance spatial teleportation, sending all the important tasks in the hall directly to a deserted, dark alley in Tosa.

After all, they had no base here, so choosing to teleport through this dark and deserted alley was the best option.

Although it is an underground city, an artificial sun shines and heat over Tosa. This sun rises in the east and sets in the west, but its brightness is adjusted over time, and it presents a different scene at night.

As Elise walked out of the alley, she looked nostalgically at the artificial sun in the sky. She had spent a long time in Tosa when she was playing the game, after all, there were many secrets here.

At that time, she even maxed out her reputation with the dwarves and werewolves.

Elise didn't wait for Elena and Nora; instead, she had the alchemical doll use the threads of fate to take her to the place where the little maid had last appeared.

The threads of fate continued to extend into the lower districts, which were in utter chaos, much like the abandoned streets of Seria, filled with filth and sin.
