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

At that moment, she didn't even have time to deal with such emotions, because she realized that her soul seemed to have been polluted.

And it wasn't just ordinary pollution; that madwoman Elise actually cut off a part of her soul and merged it into her own.

Is this how you try to influence yourself?

It's only a small part of the soul, so it can't possibly have any effect on me. In fact, cutting off the soul can have a huge impact on me.

Servis tried to calm her rapid breathing, then stared intently at the smiling Elise.

As we can see, even though Servis has transferred the fate influenced by the power of pleasure to the cat, the mark of pleasure in her eyes has not faded.

This is Elise's influence on her soul, and unless the mark Elise left deep within her soul is completely erased, this mark will never fade.

"You felt great just now, didn't you?" Elise said to Servis with a smile.

“So-so,” Servis said coldly.

“But you looked like you were really enjoying it just now~” Elise said, snapping her fingers.

Suddenly, the image of herself being lost in pleasure flashed into Servis's mind, and she could vaguely see a glistening tear on the corner of her mouth.

A faint blush appeared on Servis's face. She silently stood up, completely ignoring Elise, and walked towards the bathroom.

Seeing this, Elise smiled and followed.

Then, from inside the bathroom came Elise's surprised voice: "Wow, even after all this, you still say it's just okay? Just how stubborn are you? Unlike me, my lips are so soft~"

After some time, Servis emerged from the bathroom in a different outfit, her expression returning to its usual coldness. However, the look of pleasure in her eyes added a strange allure to her appearance.

Ignoring Elise's incessant chatter in her ear, she lay down on the bed and began to examine her own condition.

She realized that she had to resolve Elise's problem as soon as possible, otherwise she would eventually run into serious trouble.

However, after checking around, Servis still couldn't find anything unusual about her soul. In addition, the merging of Elise's soul made her feel dizzy and disoriented.

Although she couldn't find the mark Elise had left deep in her soul, she could find a way to erase that part of Elise's soul.

That's how it should have been, but when Servis started to act, she discovered that Elise's soul was more resilient than she had imagined.

After a whole night, not only did she not erase that trace of her soul, she even had a shameful dream.

She didn't understand why she would still have such dreams even though she had clearly transferred the influence of the power of pleasure to others. Was it because she was influenced by Elise's soul?

In fact, Servis's guess was correct.

Because a small part of her soul was merged into the other's, Elise could apply the power of pleasure to herself and then feed back a portion of it to the other through soul binding. Such feedback was not something that could be easily transferred.

Anyway, as the owner of the Pleasure Mark, she has plenty of ways to deal with it even if she is affected.

As for Servis, she'll just have to figure out a way to solve it herself.

……

"what are you laughing at?"

Vivian looked at Elise, who was smiling, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered something happy." Elise turned around and hugged the petite Vivian, enjoying the soft, fragrant feeling.

Vivian didn't struggle when she was being held; in fact, she seemed quite absorbed in the warm embrace.

Just as she was lost in pleasure with Elise, she awakened some memories. In those memories, Elise was nothing but a cold corpse, so at this moment, she was completely immersed in this warmth.

"Speaking of which, it's almost noon now, aren't you going to get up?"

"I don't want to get up," Vivian said calmly.

Hearing her words, Elise couldn't help but tilt her head. You see, Vivian has a very strict sense of time. She plans ahead of time for what to do and when to get up each day, and then executes it precisely.

This kind of behavior of staying in bed too long is quite rare.

"If you're not getting up, then I'm getting up."

"No, stay and keep me company."

Iris wasn't sure if she had misheard, but she felt that Vivian's words sounded a little like she was being coquettish.

Vivian realized that her tone seemed a bit off, but since she had already said it, she could only hide in Elise's arms and pretend that nothing had happened.

The two lingered like this until nearly 2 p.m. before finally leaving the room one after the other.

8. While Elise had lunch prepared, Vivian's head maid brought over the intelligence she had gathered that day.

Actually, she had been here since early morning, but Miss Vivian and Miss Iris's discussion had not yet ended, so she had been waiting until now.

It seems they must be discussing something very important, otherwise they wouldn't have been discussing it since last night.

Without giving it much thought, the head maid handed the information to her mistress and left.

"Did you find anything?"

"Well, just as you predicted, those thieves haven't given up on their identity as Duke Thackeray. He even attended a banquet last night."

"Aren't they taking any action?"

“Not yet, but it will slip up sooner or later.” Vivian seemed to have discovered something, and then continued, “By the way, the souls needed for the previous god-making plan have been collected almost completely, so the war should have ended by now.”

"However, the Empire does not seem to have any intention of stopping the war. In fact, it wants to penetrate deeper into the heart of the kingdom and expand the battlefield. Last night, members of the Empire's fourth and fifth magic legions were conscripted and are ready to be deployed to the front lines at any time."

"It seems my guess was right; the war has indeed chosen to cooperate with the Empire."

It seems like it's been a lot of days since I last updated. Here's an extra update.

Volume 1: Chapter 568 The Amazing Equipment

"So, what are you planning to do now?"

Vivian was well aware that Elise and the war were essentially locked in a life-or-death struggle, so she was very curious about what Elise would do next.

"Just think of a way to prevent the Empire from continuing to cooperate with the war." Elise's lips curled up slightly, and she casually leaned against Vivian: "You should know that I used to be known as the witch who brought chaos to the country."

This wasn't a good name, and it brought back some unpleasant memories for Vivian.

"Actually, we might as well do nothing and just wait quietly." Although she had a way to throw the empire into chaos, it seemed that someone else was going to do it for her, so there was no need for her to rush into action.

"You mean waiting for those thieves to cause trouble?"

"That's right. If nothing unexpected happens, those thieves won't stay quiet for long. They must have some purpose in mind, otherwise they wouldn't steal from the great nobles for no reason."

“Since it involves the great nobles, it means that what they’re doing is definitely related to the Empire,” Vivian added.

"Do they intend to steal the empire?"

Hearing Vivian's words, Elise yawned lazily and said, "I don't think they would do something like that, because it's too much trouble. I feel it's more likely related to the god-making project."

"Oh?"

"It's just a guess without evidence. We'll have to wait until they start taking action to analyze the situation."

Although it was just Elise's guess, Vivian thought about it seriously and felt that the group of thieves might really have their eyes on the god-making project.

The reason why no action has been taken yet may be because the deification plan has not yet reached a critical stage.

It seems I need to make some preparations in advance.

After spending some time with Elise, Vivian got up and left. Although she had slacked off all morning, the things that needed to be done wouldn't automatically decrease, and now she had to get back to her own business.

After Vivian left, Elise also went to the basement and used the teleportation array in the basement to arrive at the Land of Hope.

As soon as she was teleported to the Land of Hope, she saw Lily appear directly in front of her.

"You appeared as soon as I arrived. Did you miss me?" Elise said to Lily with a smile.

"What are you thinking about? I was just checking on the Land of Hope through the World Tree when I saw you coming." Lily pouted, then asked curiously, "So, what are you doing here?"

"Miss you~"

Although she knew that Elise was teasing her, Lily still felt her cheeks flush under the influence of the World Tree. She took a few deep breaths and then glared at Elise, as if to tell her not to joke around.

Elise chuckled softly, then slowly walked to Lily's side: "Did you keep any of that monster's corpse?"

"Of course, do you want to go take a look?"

"it is good."

Without saying a word, Lily grabbed Iris's hand and teleported her to a spacious basement, which was the underground of Flora's magic workshop.

This basement was also prepared for conducting dangerous experiments.

In the center of the empty field, a monster resembling a lion lay there, lifeless.

Elise slowly walked to the monster's corpse, carefully examined it, and said, "Although this monster looks strange, it is indeed a dragon. Its corpse is a relatively rare resource."

"Are you sure you can use it?"

"Of course, but it's best to purify it before using it, otherwise you might get pregnant unexpectedly after the equipment is made and you put it on," Elise said with a smile.

Speaking of this, Elise couldn't help but recall when the Dragon Abyss expansion was first released, many players discovered that the monsters in Dragon Abyss could be regarded as dragons, and their corpses could be used as materials for crafting equipment.

Then many people used the monster's corpse to create various powerful equipment, and then they discovered that wearing this equipment would give their character a pregnancy buff.

If left unattended, the character's belly will continue to grow larger until its offspring tears open the character's belly and is born into the world.

Upon hearing that she might become pregnant, Lily silently moved away from the monster's corpse.

"Let me think about it." Elise stroked her smooth chin, thought seriously for a moment, and then said, "We still need to find a way to get our hands on the [Pure Sun]."

"Are you talking about that special artifact in the hands of the God of Eternity?"

"That's right. With the pure sun, we can easily purify the monster's remains and rescue Theresa's people as well."

Elise had actually devised a plan to steal the Pure Sun a long time ago, but the God of Eternity had never left the Holy City, so she had not found an opportunity.

"Although there is no way to obtain the Pure Sun for the time being, there are other alternatives, such as getting help from the followers of the Eternal God."

"you sure?"

"Of course, I'll have Rumia bring some people back then."

Hearing Iris's words, Lily couldn't help but recall the shameless saintess. She asked curiously, "By the way, I haven't seen her lately. Where did she go?"

"Over in the Holy Kingdom, she is cultivating alongside a fragment of the Eternal God. If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to see her soon."

"Alright, if there really is a way to purify these remains, then the strength of the Land of Hope will be enhanced once again."

It's important to know that equipment crafted from dragon remains is incredibly powerful, but such equipment is extremely rare on the market.

After all, if such equipment were discovered by the dragon race, it would be hunted down by the dragons.

The availability of an equivalent alternative has Lily quite excited.

"Let's go, there's nothing more to worry about here."

"Then where are we going now?"

"I'm going to the World Tree Plaza to water it."

"Ok."

Lily took Iris's hand again, and in the blink of an eye they arrived at World Tree Square.

As Elise appeared, the World Tree swayed gently, its slender vines reaching out and rubbing against Elise's legs like a puppy.

Elise touched the vines of the World Tree, then activated the Life Mark on her wrist, beginning to condense life force into liquid and pour it onto the roots of the World Tree.

Volume 1: Chapter 569 The Influence of Elise

Although the World Tree has no shortage of life force, it was watered by Elise, so the World Tree was very happy.

After the World Tree became happy, Lily, who coexisted with the World Tree, also felt happy, but she didn't know what she was happy about.

Forcibly suppressing the urge to hug and rub against Elise, Lily sighed helplessly, wondering why the tree was so active.

When she coexisted with the World Tree from before, it didn't show any emotions; if anything, it was deathly still.

Perhaps... perhaps it was because the tree was already close to withering away?

Thinking of this, Lily couldn't help but sigh.

Just then, Lily suddenly felt someone touch her head. This sudden contact caught her completely off guard, so her body instinctively rubbed against the other person's hand.

The person touching your head is obviously the one who caused your body to react this way.

Normally, she would have dodged, but this time Lily gave up struggling and indulged in Elise's head pat.

Although Elise didn't know why Lily wasn't struggling, she didn't let the opportunity pass and directly ruffled Lily's neat hair into a mess.

"You're being insolent!" Lily glared at Elise angrily, then began to fix her hair.
