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

The butterfly emitted a chirping sound that only Elise could hear. Elise should not normally understand this, but at this moment she could clearly feel the meaning conveyed by the butterfly.

It wasn't like the insect mother forcing her to understand the content of the insect chirping, but rather she understood the meaning expressed by the insect chirping on her own.

The former is like having someone translate for you, while the latter is like actively mastering a foreign language.

Elise was a little confused. When did she begin to understand insect language?

Could it be an extra effect that occurred when Wendy sealed the blessing of the Earth Goddess? Or is it that the current Insect Queen and the Earth Goddess have begun to merge, and the reaction of the fusion is being fed back to her as the priestess?

Since her body wasn't showing any signs of insectification, Elise didn't pay much attention to it. She simply made an insect chirping sound towards the butterfly, told Wendy about the situation at the Eternal Church, and started making arrangements for tonight's operation.

Although the Eternal Church has more seventh-tier combatants than her, with proper planning, they can still maintain a rough balance. Moreover, if she can completely charm Rumia...

Then the control over the Heroic Spirits she possesses will be transferred to her own hands.

This is one of the reasons why Elise is so obsessed with seducing Rumia.

A moment later, the butterfly fluttered its wings and flew away, while Iris turned and walked towards the pavilion in the flower garden, where a member of the executioner squad was sitting.

She had been gazing at Elise in the garden, completely absorbed in the beautiful scene, until the other person approached and she snapped out of her reverie: "Miss Elise."

"You know my name."

"I heard the maid address you earlier." The executioner, who shouldn't have been interacting with Elise, unconsciously answered her question.

"I see. May I ask your name?" Elise smiled gently at the executioner girl, a look of pleasure in her eyes.

The moment she saw the eerie heart-shaped brand, a look of disorientation flashed in the eyes of the executioner girl, as if the whole world consisted of only Iris.

Thoughts become sluggish, the body feels stiff, and the passage of time begins to slow down.

The executioner girl tried to close her eyes, but her body was out of control. She tried to draw her weapon, but in the end, she couldn't even move a finger.

Gradually, the executioner girl stopped struggling, and her eyes began to blaze with fanaticism as she looked at Iris, as if she had seen the true god of her faith.

Being a fanatic herself, after being bewitched, Elise could even feel a surge of faith flowing from the other person into her own body.

At the same time, an uncontrollable burning desire flickered in Elise's eyes, and her breathing became heavy.

Seducing a fanatic of a higher rank than herself would have serious side effects for her.

After struggling to suppress her burgeoning desires, Elise's expression gradually relaxed. She realized she would need to find Vivian to properly purify this side effect later.

Soon, the fanaticism in the executioner girl's eyes disappeared, and she returned to her previous indifference, as if nothing had happened.

Elise then turned and began searching for her next target to seduce.

The Executioner Squad are all fanatics, so it's not easy to seduce them. She can barely seduce the fourth-tier members, but it's not so easy to seduce the fifth-tier captain. It would require a long period of subtle influence, like Rumia's, to do so.

But Elise doesn't have that much time right now, so she plans to charm all of the captain's team members.

Then we can let the team members have a good chance to bond.

Elise felt that she was still too kind; countless near-death experiences had not diminished the brilliance of her humanity.

……

Late at night, in an abandoned farm on the western outskirts of Seria.

A spatial rift suddenly appeared on an open space, and then a group of people walked out of the spatial rift.

This group of people was Lumia's team.

After tracking down the target using a seventh-tier demon hunter, Rumia had her guardian, the silver-armored knight, use spatial teleportation to arrive there.

Besides being her agent, her guardian also possesses spatial abilities, which is why she can often appear and disappear unpredictably. This is also one of Rumia's trump cards.

Once the target is tracked down, there is no chance for the other party to escape.

But as soon as everyone teleported over, the silver-armored knight sensed the presence of another agent, along with an incredibly strong fighting spirit.

A beautiful woman in magical armor stood on the open ground, looking at the group of people who emerged from the spatial rift with great interest. She said, "I was wondering why I would disappear instantly every time I sensed your presence. So you can use spatial magic."

Volume 1: Chapter 98 Utter Failure

"The Third Princess of the Empire."

The silver-armored knight recognized the other person the moment he saw her: the third princess of the empire, Philomena.

Unexpectedly, the agent was actually her.

Ever since she first sensed the other's presence some time ago, the other had been frantically searching for her. Although the silver-armored knight also wanted to fight the other to the death, as the saintess's guardian knight, she knew that this was not her purpose for this trip.

Therefore, as soon as she enters the other party's perception range, she will teleport away immediately.

I thought this could continue until the mission was over, but unexpectedly the other party appeared here.

Looking at the Third Princess, who was full of fighting spirit, Rumia's face darkened.

Faced with this situation, it's obvious without even thinking that you've fallen into a trap.

The Eternal Church's headquarters were far from this farm, so far that they were beyond the perception range of its guardian knights.

This was clearly a trap set against the Guardian Knight's spatial magic, but the Guardian Knight's spatial magic had never been shown to anyone else. How did that damned bug know this information?

“Someone told me that if I came here at night and waited for a while, fish would come to me on their own. It seems that person wasn’t lying to me.” Philomena drew her magic longsword, and her magic armor glowed with magical power.

"If you want to escape alone, I can't stop you, but if you want to escape with these people in front of me, forget about it." Although she sensed that there were two other seventh-tier members in the other party's group, Philomena didn't care at all, and her gaze remained fixed on the silver-armored knight.

It has now entered the realm of proxy wars. If anyone dares to interfere, she can use the power of the Valkyries to chop all the troublemakers into pieces.

The silver-armored knight naturally understood this principle, and she said to Rumia with an apologetic tone, "Holy Maiden, I will resolve the battle as soon as possible."

As soon as she finished speaking, the silver-armored knight vanished from everyone's sight and reappeared behind Philomena, his longsword sweeping across in an attempt to cut her in two.

But it was as if Philomena had eyes in the back of her head. A magical mechanical arm extended from the magical armor on her back, blocking the attack with a sword, while another magical mechanical arm extended to counterattack.

Although both were wearing armor, they were extremely fast, and a series of crisp clanging sounds rang out as soon as they clashed.

Anyone with eyes can see that the fight between the two will not end anytime soon.

Rumia didn't linger there any longer. She immediately had Vanessa manipulate the power of the earth, as if an invisible hand was carrying them, moving them horizontally towards their target.

While this speed isn't comparable to teleportation, it's still very fast.

At this moment, Rumia had a bad feeling. Even her guardian knight had been tricked. Could the two heroic spirits beside her also be part of the enemy's scheme?

What other cards do they have up their sleeve? Could they also be the target of their own schemes?

As she drew closer to her goal, Lumia suppressed her unease. No matter what happened, as a saintess, she still had the possibility of turning things around.

She subconsciously touched the stigmata on the back of her hand, a power given by God.

Soon, the group arrived at a plain. The witcher told Rumia that the target had stopped here after fleeing, as if deliberately waiting for them.

The moonlight is beautiful tonight. Under the moonlight, Rumia can clearly see a graceful figure standing in the distance.

"You guys are finally here."

Wendy watched the group of people approaching rapidly, her eyes flashing with undisguised killing intent. She hadn't seen Elise for several days, hadn't smelled her scent for several days. Now, all she wanted was to finish what Elise had asked her to do and then return to her side.

The battle began the moment the two sides met.

A giant rock hand burst from the ground, attempting to crush Rumia and the others into mincemeat, but the moment the rock hand emerged, everyone scattered in advance, forming an encirclement around the target.

But soon Rumia noticed that Vanessa seemed to be getting out of control, because the aura of the Earth Goddess was emanating from the target.

That's... a follower of the Earth Goddess? No, it's not just the aura of the Earth Goddess, it even has the power of the Insect Queen.

It turns out that the person and the insect who escaped from the ancient city ruins were not the same person; there was only her from beginning to end.

This saved them the trouble of finding another person. However, because of the goddess aura emanating from the other party, their seventh-tier warriors had lost their original combat power. Although Vanessa would still obey if forced to do so, the divine magic she released was much weaker in both speed and power.

But it doesn't matter. Even if Vanessa is of no use, she still has a seventh-tier witcher and the Executioner squad.

Although the captain of the executioner squad is only at the fifth rank, through cooperation and the church's secret techniques, they can be comparable to a seventh rank for a short period of time.

But at this very moment, a problem arose on the side of the Zero-Punishment Hut team.

Just as the captain was about to unleash her secret technique, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest. Daggers and longswords pierced through her body, and she was even struck by flail and bombarded by holy light.

If it were an ordinary fifth-tier fighter, he would have died long ago, but as the captain of the Executioner Squad, he survived these attacks.

That's impossible!

Turn (one) Ling (three) Emu⊙Seven? (eight) Qun

Whether it was the executioner team leader, or Seven, or Slumia, they all looked at the four members of the Spirit Alliance who had betrayed them in disbelief.

The selection of executioners is extremely rigorous. Every member is undoubtedly a fanatical believer of the eternal god, and betrayal is virtually impossible.

9 But the impossible has now appeared before Rumia.

He saw four executioner team members frantically attacking their captain, with strange heart-shaped marks flashing in their eyes.

The target, which should have been attacked by four seventh-tier warriors, was now reduced to a single demon hunter fighting alone.

The Witcher, who possesses exceptional one-on-one combat skills among his peers, was unable to pose a threat to Wendy at this moment.

After all, Wendy is not an ordinary seventh-tier; she is already close to breaking through to the eighth tier. In addition, she can use the power of the Earth Goddess and the power of the Insect Queen at the same time, which gives her a huge advantage in the battle against the Witcher.

Eight spider legs extending from behind Ti continuously blocked the Witcher's attacks, while Wendy's hands, transformed into scythes, counterattacked. At the same time, she also continuously cast earth magic.

Rock spears, giant rock hands, earthquake tremors, gravity... a continuous barrage of attacks.

Si could see that the Witcher had many wounds on his body, but he seemed to feel nothing and continued to launch various attacks fearlessly.

This is both an advantage and a disadvantage; his body can't hold on much longer, and defeat is only a matter of time.

Rumia knew very well that her mission had failed.

Moreover, it failed completely; problems arose at every stage.

Her face was grim. She wanted to use her trump card several times, but in the end she gave up. Using her trump card here could eliminate the target, but what if there were other ambushes?

Rumia dejectedly took out a scroll from her spatial ring—a teleportation scroll that would allow her to return directly to the Eternal Church's headquarters.

She took Vanessa with her and used the scroll directly.

With a moment of disorientation, Rumia reappeared at the Eternal Church's headquarters, where a familiar figure stood before her.

Elise turned to look at Rumia and gave her a gentle smile: "You're back."

Volume 1: Chapter 99 The Saintess Who Broke Down

"Rumia, what's wrong?"

Iris quickly walked up to Rumia, her eyes filled with worry.

Upon seeing Iris, Rumia's previously heavy mood eased slightly, and she smiled, instinctively wanting to say something.

But at that moment, Rumia noticed a strange heart-shaped mark flickering in Iris's pale blue eyes as she looked at her.

The moment Rumia saw this mark, she felt as if the whole world had shrunk to just Iris.

Thoughts slowed, movements froze, and a passionate love began to surge forth.

If it were a normal Tier 5, after Elise's continuous erosion for several days, it should be completely bewitched by now.

However, Rumia is not an ordinary fifth-tier being. She is a saintess of the Eternal Church, a being chosen by the Eternal God. Even after being corrupted by Iris for several days, she was not immediately seduced.

Sensing extreme danger, Rumia revealed a trump card without hesitation.

Her pure white wings spread open, and a golden halo appeared above her head.

To become an angel.

This ability, exclusive to the chosen ones of the Eternal God, can instantly remove all abnormal statuses, greatly enhance their attributes and resistances, and provide extremely fast physical recovery.

It can instantly grant the physically weak Rumia a monstrous physique and melee combat abilities.

Although the successful transformation into an angel freed Rumia from her sluggish thoughts and sluggish movements, the endless stream of love she felt could not be stopped.

With a gentle flap of her wings, Rumia distanced herself from Iris, her golden eyes flashing with wariness.

"Elise, are you being controlled?"

Upon hearing Rumia's words, Iris laughed as if she had heard something very funny: "Even at a time like this, you still think I'm being controlled. I'm so touched I could cry."

Iris wiped away the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes, and looked at Rumia with a morbidly gleeful expression: "Do you think it's possible that I wasn't being controlled?"

In fact, Rumia had already guessed the moment she was charmed, but she just didn't want to admit it.

Qilinba feeding? Lu% shrimp (seven {)) ? Qigong

She didn't want to believe that the pure and innocent Elise in her heart was all an act by the other party.

As if sensing Rumia's thoughts, Iris's expression returned to the familiar one Rumia knew, her smile pure and innocent, her eyes filled with longing and affection as she looked at her.
