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

Elena then realized that the priest was looking at her with a smile.

"I am very sorry for the trouble I have caused you. Yesterday in the city, I was unable to control my behavior. Everything was under the control of the Queen Insect."

"No, it's nothing. Anyway, you weren't chasing me yesterday."

Elise was the one who was targeted yesterday; if it were her, she probably would have been killed in there already.

Just as Elise was about to ask something, she realized she didn't know the priest's name.

"Wendy Burns, that's my name."

When Wendy shifted her gaze to Elise, her eyes softened, revealing an undisguised affection.

"Um, Miss Wendy, I will remove the mark from you once it is safe to do so."

"It's okay if it's not lifted. I haven't felt such strong emotions in a long time. Thank you for saving me from hell."

“If you hadn’t given up all resistance, there would have been nothing I could have done.”

"Let's hurry up, I'm feeling a little uneasy here." Elena quickened her pace and walked towards the carriage.

……

Star City.

Sitting in the carriage, Wendy looked around curiously through the window, just like a child who had never seen the world before.

Elise could understand this feeling, after all, Wendy, as one of the high priests of the Earth Goddess, had been sealed in the ancient city and separated from this world for too long.

In addition, the world is changing so much that you may feel out of place with everything around you.

Elise had the same feeling when she first transmigrated.

However, because she had been killed so many times, she quickly forgot about that feeling.

As for Wendy's situation, as long as we take her out more often and let her learn more about the world, there shouldn't be any problems.

Back at the Sword Dance Mercenary Group's base, Elise had a room prepared and then said to Wendy, "Go take a shower and change your clothes first, then we'll leave Star City immediately."

As Elise spoke, she took out a set of her own clothes from her spatial ring and handed them to the other person. The two of them were quite different in size.

She glanced at Wendy's chest. No wonder she's the High Priestess!

But it doesn't matter, it's only temporary after all, and I believe Wendy won't mind this little bit of constraint.

As the door closed, Wendy looked at the dress in her hand that had a faint fragrance, then looked around at her surroundings before slowly walking into the bathroom.

Standing in front of the mirror, Wendy looked at herself and a slow smile appeared on her lips.

As soon as Elise returned to her room, she heard some strange noises coming from the room next door.

She approached Wendy's door somewhat nervously, knocked, and said, "Miss Wendy, what happened?"

"It seems like I accidentally broke something."

As the door opened, Wendy, soaking wet, stood before Elise. Her black outer robe and the priestess robe underneath clung to her body, outlining her stunning figure.

Looking at the somewhat dazed Wendy, Elise went into the room and noticed that she seemed to have broken the showerhead switch in the bathroom.

It was indeed Elise's mistake not to teach her these things.

Helpless, she could only take Wendy back to her room and teach her how to use the various switches in the bathroom before Wendy finally started taking a shower.

About ten minutes later, Wendy, who had finished showering, appeared in front of Elise.

At this moment, Wendy was wearing Elise's long dress, and as she approached, Elise could smell a very pleasant floral fragrance.

"Looks pretty good."

"Thanks for the clothes."

"It's nothing. My clothes don't fit you very well. I'll buy you new ones when we get back to Seria. Let's go now."

Elise no longer wanted to stay in Star City. She had a feeling that something might happen here after Wendy broke free from the control of the Queen.

Before leaving, Elise instructed the members of the Sword Dance Mercenary Group to keep a close eye on the situation of the ancient city ruins and to collect some rare ingredients around Starlight City.

After explaining these things, Elise took the others and boarded the magic train back to Seria.

In about two hours, they will be able to return to Seria. Elise is already missing Seria's desserts, and Wendy will probably like them too.

It was clearly Wendy's first time riding a magical train, so Elise gave her the window seat and introduced her to the advanced magical technology.

As Iris explained, Wendy's eyes once again shone with curiosity about this world.

Meanwhile, the ancient city ruins.

At the spot where Elise saved Wendy, on that deserted section of the city wall, countless moths emerged and formed a graceful figure dressed in a priestess robe.

Her light green pupils shifted between clarity and emptiness for about five minutes before her gaze returned to its vacant state. Then, she transformed into countless moths and vanished from the spot.

She didn't come.

Volume 1: Chapter 47 The Little Maid Asked for Leave

"Miss, wake up, we've arrived at our station."

At the call of her maid Emu, Isiris also awoke from her dream, having just attempted to contact the Earth Goddess through a blessing.

At first, the contact was successful, and she was pulled into the church of the Earth Goddess, but as soon as she entered the church, it collapsed.

Before she could wake up, she was pulled into the church again, and then it collapsed once more.

After repeating this cycle several times, there was absolutely no further activity.

If nothing unexpected happens, it's likely that the Insect Queen strengthened her blockade of the Goddess after discovering that the Earth Goddess's followers had fled, since the Goddess is currently in a vulnerable position.

Perhaps only by rekindling the faith in the Earth Goddess can we reconnect with Her.

Thankfully Wendy was there, otherwise she wouldn't have had so much time and energy to spread any faith.

With renewed vigor, Elise led everyone out of the carriage once the magic train came to a complete stop.

Returning to the bustling city of Seria, Iris's initial nervousness gradually subsided.

After this, she can indeed get a good rest for a few days.

After leaving the station, Nora yawned lazily and said to Elise, "I'm going back now. Come find me if you have any news about the agent."

"Don't forget the gift you promised me, I'm really looking forward to it."

"By the way, if you want to learn to dance, you can come to me. As long as you prepare a suitable gift, I will teach you carefully."

"understood."

Nora scratched her head in frustration, finding it even more difficult than the battles between agents to choose a gift for Elise.

“Actually, she’ll be happy no matter what you give her.” The ethereal voice rang in Nora’s ears.

"When did you become an expert in this field?"

Nora ignored the man's suggestion, waved to Elise and the others, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Elise then had her maid fetch a carriage and returned to her manor.

Not long after returning to the manor, the little maid found Elise.

Looking at the somewhat hesitant maid, Elise smiled and said, "Say what you want to say."

"Miss, may I ask for a few days off?" the maid asked cautiously.

"Ok?"

The maid's words piqued Elise's curiosity. After all, she had been through so many near-death experiences, and the maid would never leave her side unless she asked for it herself.

"I want to improve myself," the maid said earnestly to her mistress.

A third-tier assassin might be very strong to an ordinary person, but during this time, while staying by her young mistress's side, she increasingly felt her own inadequacy. She needed time to hone her skills.

Now that her young lady has a seventh-level earth priest by her side, her safety should be well guaranteed. This period before the other party leaves is her opportunity to improve herself.

Do you need some advice?

The maid shook her head, a rare occurrence for her: "I think I know what I should do."

Seeing the somewhat troubled maid who seemed unsure how to explain, Elise smiled and then stuffed all the unused supplies from her spatial ring into her hands, along with three thousand gold coins: "Keep these things. Use them when you need them, and remember to come back on time, or I'll get angry."

“And this is for you too.” Elise retrieved the Shadow Scepter from her own shadow and handed it to the maid, adding, “You don’t need to worry about my safety. You should be careful yourself. If you don’t come back, my position as your personal maid will have to be handed over to Elena.”

Upon hearing that her mistress was going to hand over the position of personal maid to that white-haired woman, the little maid immediately became alert: "Don't worry, mistress, I will definitely be back as soon as possible!"

"If you need money, you can tell me. I have plenty of money, not much else."

"Hmm." The little maid put all the things into her spatial ring, hid the Shadow Scepter in her shadow, bowed to her mistress, and prepared to leave.

However, she had only taken a few steps when Elise pulled her back, hugged the cute little maid, ruffled her hair, and then let go: "Go on, go on."

"Then, miss, I'm leaving."

"Remember to bring me a gift when you come back!"

"Yes."

After the maid left, Elise sighed sadly. In fact, it was clear from the maid's behavior that she seemed to be somewhat similar to Elena, as if she retained some memories from the past.

This is both a good thing and a bad thing. If she could, she would like the little maid to be carefree, but her own situation dictates that such a thing can only exist in her imagination.

Not long after the maid left, Elena came over: "What's wrong with your maid? She told me to keep an eye on you these days, and to make matters worse, she gave me a menacing warning, telling me not to have any improper thoughts about you. How could I possibly..."

Before Elena could finish speaking, Elise took a step forward and moved closer to her, the distance between them seemingly so small that only air could squeeze between them.

Elise looked at Elena with sparkling eyes, her soft voice tinged with a hint of mischief: "Why don't you continue?"

Eileen actually wanted to continue, but the words caught in her throat. She unconsciously took a half-step back and asked calmly, "Are you really willing to let your naive little maid go out alone?"

“Innocent?” Elise chuckled softly, as if she had heard something amusing, before continuing, “She only shows her innocent side to me.”

Recalling the maid's expressionless face just now, Elena fell silent.

Just then, Elise gracefully stepped forward again and wrapped her arms around Elena's neck: "With Misha gone, my personal maid position is temporarily vacant. Would you like to temporarily take on a part-time role?"

“No,” Elena answered without hesitation.

"Don't rush to refuse. Of course, I'll pay you accordingly if I let you work part-time as my personal maid. How about I give you an extra ten gold coins a day?"

"What do you take me for?" Elena asked with some disdain.

"twenty."

“I’m not that kind of person!” Elena began to hesitate.

"Fifty."

"make a deal!"

Looking at Elena, who was almost turning into the shape of a gold coin, Elise could only sigh, "It's good that you haven't seen the world." In the past, even if she used her charm and money to launch an offensive, she might not have been able to get Elena to agree.

Elise thought it was a good opportunity to leave Elena with some embarrassing moments, so that people could decide for themselves whether she would be flat or round in the future.

Seeing Elise's smile, Elena knew that this young lady definitely didn't have good intentions, but there was nothing she could do; she had given her far too much.

"So, the first step as my personal maid is to change into a maid outfit and then accompany me shopping."

"Can I not wear the maid outfit?"

"Fine, then I won't give you any gold coins."

Volume 1: Chapter 48 The Future Empress

For the sake of the gold coins, Elena compromised; after all, it was just a maid outfit.

She wondered where Elise had found the maid outfit that fit her so perfectly; she even suspected that Elise had prepared it in advance.

Elena tugged at her skirt, looking somewhat uncomfortable. She wondered how the little maid usually fought in this outfit.

"Yeah, very good."

Ebalis circled around her with satisfaction, and used the Qi Liu Jiu Ying Crystal Stone to record Aijunlina's posture in the maid outfit.

Especially when she was being stared at, the way she acted coy excited Elise.

When Elena showed signs of impatience, Elise snapped her fingers: "Alright, let's go. Let's call Wendy along."

Upon hearing the news that she was going out, Wendy's light green eyes lit up with excitement. On her way back, she had been looking out the window at the street scene, just waiting for Elizabeth to take her out.

I don’t know if it was just Elise’s imagination, but Wendy, who looks like a mature and intellectual older sister, felt more like a child to her.
