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

When Vivian awoke from her reverie, the first thing she saw was Elise's gentle smile, which made her, who was still in shock, feel that sense of losing everything once again.

She instinctively grabbed Elise's wrist and looked down at the other's neck.

There were no wounds on her long, fair neck, only some marks she had left behind.

The moment Elise sensed Vivian's gaze, she knew what the other was looking at, but Elise pretended not to notice and said softly, "I need to remove those marks, otherwise it will be very troublesome if they are discovered."

"Whatever, I'm going to take a shower now." Vivian took a deep breath, then got up and went into the bathroom.

Although she seemed calm on the surface, based on Elise's understanding of Vivian, she guessed that Vivian's feelings were probably quite complicated. She wondered what Vivian had just remembered.

"It should be a very warm memory, right?" Elise thought with a touch of wicked humor.

Lying on the bed, Elise rolled around a few times out of curiosity before calming down a little.

Vivian didn't stay in the bathroom for long; she soon returned to her room.

Looking at the other person's wet hair, Elise sighed helplessly, then got up, took out a towel, and gently dried her hair while holding her in her arms. Her movements were very practiced, as if she had done it countless times.

As Elise dried Vivian's hair, she asked softly, "What did you remember just now?"

"nothing."

"Judging from your reaction just now, it doesn't seem like nothing's wrong."

"You're so annoying." Vivian turned her head to the side, clearly not wanting to share her awakened memories with Iris.

Elise blinked, surprised that Vivian would throw such a tantrum. She had known Vivian for so long and this was the first time she had ever seen her like this.

"Alright, alright, if you don't want to talk about it, then I'll dry your hair for you and you can go back to sleep." Iris casually took out a hair dryer-like magical device and began to carefully dry Vivian's hair.

Once Vivian's hair was dry, Elise hugged her and lay back down on the bed.

"It seems like you haven't grown much lately. Have you been eating on time?" Elise asked softly.

“If you mock me again, I’ll bite you,” Vivian said coldly. How could she not hear the sarcasm in Elise’s words?

"No, I'm just reminding you to eat on time."

Elise whispered a few words in Vivian's ear before her voice gradually faded and became slurred. Before Vivian knew it, she could hear Elise's even, soft breathing.

The voice made her feel very safe, but she wasn't sleepy at all.

Time flew by and it was already the next morning. When Elise woke up, she found Vivian already sitting at her desk working.

Seeing this, Elise suddenly remembered that last night, because Vivian was overthinking things, she had dragged Vivian into a sea of ​​desire before she had even finished her work.

Volume 1: Chapter 485 Unexpected Discovery

"Oh dear, I forgot something important!"

Elise tapped her head and suddenly let out a wail.

Vivian frowned slightly upon hearing the voice. If it were truly something important, Elise would have already vanished. The fact that she was still rolling around in bed meant that what she was talking about wasn't important at all.

After rolling around on the bed several times and finding that Vivian didn't respond, Elise slowly sat up and looked at Vivian, asking, "Aren't you going to ask me what I've forgotten?"

“If you want to say it, you’ll say it without me asking,” Vivian said without looking up.

Feeling like she was being manipulated, Elise made a face at Vivian, then got up and went into the bathroom to wash up.

Last night she received a cat brooch, which she originally intended to give to Vivian. Vivian in catgirl form—just thinking about it made her feel adorable.

Unfortunately, she was so busy with other things last night that she forgot about this matter.

But it doesn't matter, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. If she has time, she can even come over again in the evening.

After a while, Elise came out of the bathroom and walked over to Vivian, saying, "How about I help you take care of it?"

At that moment, Vivian's mind flashed back to the image of Elise sitting at her desk, working late into the night. She then shook her head and said, "Never mind, I've almost finished."

"But I promised to help you last night, and now that I haven't been able to, I feel a little bad. What should I do?"

"Make me some tea."

"it is good."

Elise skillfully brewed Vivian a cup of black tea, the kind without any additives. After all, if she really wanted to do something to Vivian now, she wouldn't need to add anything; she could just tell her directly.

Elise believed that Vivian would agree to any request that wasn't too unreasonable.

For some unknown reason, a pleased smile appeared on Elise's lips. 6

"What are your plans for today?" Elise asked after serving Vivian tea.

"I need to meet with Duke Thackeray later, and I have a meeting to attend this afternoon. Would you like to come along?"

"Pretend I didn't ask."

Whether it's meeting someone or attending a conference, it's all torture for Elise; she has no desire to do such boring things.

"Since you're not going, then there's nothing for you to do here for the time being. If you want to go back, then hurry back."

"We were so affectionate last night, are you just going to send him home now?" Elise said, looking aggrieved.

"If you stay here, I'll assume you want to be my personal maid for a day."

"Then I'll head back now. I'll come find you again when I have time." Elise stuck out her tongue and then jumped off the balcony.

Vivian had asked Elise why she always took an unconventional route when leaving her house, and Elise told her that it made her feel more elusive. Anyway, Vivian sometimes couldn't understand Elise's thought process.

After Elise left, Vivian also said towards the door, "Lina."

"I'm here, miss."

As the room door opened, Vivian's personal maid quickly walked up to her.

"Have someone investigate some things for me."

……

How did you get behind me?

Nora had just arrived at the entrance of Elise Manor and was about to enter when she sensed Elise behind her and asked this question.

"Of course I just got back from a walk outside. But what are you doing at my door so early in the morning?"

"They're here to ask if you're going to the academy."

Elise initially wanted to say no, but under Nora's expectant gaze, she finally nodded helplessly: "Let's come in and eat something first, anyway, we'll be late if we go now."

"Then I won't be polite." Elise's chef's cooking was delicious, much better than Nora's own.

Elise had originally intended to bring Flora along, but Flora hadn't returned to the manor last night. Elise guessed that Flora was probably still engrossed in her research on magical artifacts.

After all, he brought back a lot of good stuff from the Doomsday Volcano last time, especially the Magic Titan. With the Heart of the Titan, that behemoth can finally move.

After the meal, Elise and Nora used a teleportation array to arrive at the Imperial Magic Academy.

Nora looked around and couldn't help but sigh, "This is my first time here since the academy temporarily moved here."

"It's not much different from before. If you want to visit, you can find anyone to take you."

"Can I talk to you then?"

“Of course…no.” Elise rolled her eyes at Nora; she didn’t have the energy to wander around this place with Nora.

Without Elise's company, Nora naturally had no interest in strolling around, but since the next class was a practical lesson, she enthusiastically dragged Elise along to participate.

However, once class started, apart from Elise, no one wanted to team up with Nora. After all, as the champion of the student exchange competition, playing against her was no different from asking for a beating.

Elise stood in front of Nora, a smile on her face, and said, "Want to fight me?"

Remembering her experience of hallucinating whenever she swung her sword at Elise, Nora decisively chose to surrender, without even making a token move.

She didn't want to see something she didn't want to see when she was in a good mood.

Even now, she still doesn't know why, whenever she attacks Elise, images of Elise's death flash through her mind.

No, no, I can't think about it anymore. If I keep thinking about it, those memories will come flooding back.

Nora took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down, and then sat down next to Elise to watch the game.

The teacher ignored their somewhat presumptuous behavior, after all, she was no match for the two of them. In fact, they didn't need to attend this kind of class anymore, and she didn't know why they came today.

Just as Nora was getting a little bored and was about to pull Elise away, she noticed that Elise was staring intently in a certain direction.

She followed Elise's gaze, which led to the freshmen's training grounds. She leaned close to Elise's ear and asked, "Is there anything interesting over there?"

Nora's breath brushed against Elise's ear as she spoke, causing her to unconsciously turn her head to the side before saying, "I saw someone who wanted to kill me."

Volume 1: Chapter 486 You're such a bad woman

"Who?"

Nora narrowed her eyes. Although she appeared calm, a murderous intent was already surging in her eyes.

Elise was very pleased with Nora's reaction, so much so that she couldn't help but kiss Nora on the cheek.

Nora was slightly taken aback by the sudden attack, and then looked around nervously. After all, this was the academy's training ground, a place full of people. Was it really okay for Elise to kiss her like this?

"Don't worry, to everyone around us, I'm just whispering to you." This is a form of seduction, and also the power of the Holy Face, which briefly plunges those around us into the illusion created by Elise.

Although it has little effect on powerful individuals, it is very suitable for use here.

"Actually, you don't need to be nervous. Even if someone sees us, I won't care. Or are you starting to dislike me now?"

"Since you don't care, why should I care?"

To be honest, Nora was even a little curious about how those people in the academy who had always thought their relationship was terrible would react if it were made public.

Although fewer people think this way now, there are still quite a few who believe that Elise and Nora are just putting on an act.

"So, who exactly is that person you were just talking about?"

"That skinny, weak boy is a freshman at the Magic Academy."

Following the direction Elise pointed, Nora quickly noticed the boy. He was standing in an inconspicuous corner, and if Elise hadn't pointed it out, she would have subconsciously ignored his presence.

"Why did he want to kill you?"

"Because his family fell into ruin because of my suppression." Elise tilted her head. In fact, this was all her predecessor's fault. If it weren't for his arrogance and domineering attitude, she wouldn't have lived such a miserable life.

It's one thing to suppress such a fallen nobleman, but to fail to eliminate the threat completely when he is at his weakest is another. Once he grows up, dealing with him will not be so easy.

However, this protagonist's growth rate was not fast, and he posed no threat to Elise in the short term, so Elise did not deal with him immediately.

If it weren't for this chance encounter, she might have temporarily forgotten about it.

"You're such a bad woman."

"There's nothing I can do. It's his fault for being disrespectful to me back then." Although it was the fault of her predecessor, she is now Elise and can only helplessly take the blame.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Of course, we should find an opportunity to nip the threat in the bud. Otherwise, are we supposed to wait for it to grow up and kill me?"

"Then I'll take care of it." Although the distance was quite far, the boy's strength was estimated to be only at the third or fourth level, so killing him wouldn't be difficult for Nora.

As if she could read Nora's mind, Elise reached out and gently poked her cheek: "Don't be careless. He has an ancient magical armor that can temporarily boost his strength to around the seventh rank."

"There are actually such amazing magical armors?"

"Of course there is. It is one of the crystallizations of ancient magical technology, but it has been almost completely destroyed. If it is fully restored, it should be able to have the power of the ninth rank or even higher."

Hearing what Elise said, Nora's expression became slightly serious. Although she could kill a seventh-tier being, she had not yet reached the level of a seventh-tier being. However, she was very curious about how much power the ancient magical armor could bring to the opponent.

The thought of battle ignited a fierce fighting spirit in Nora's eyes.

The thin boy in the distance seemed to sense something, and then looked at Elise and Nora in the distance. He subconsciously ignored Nora and focused his gaze on the beautiful blonde girl, his eyes cold and filled with murderous intent.

If it weren't for Elise, his family wouldn't be in such dire straits, and his sister wouldn't have been able to afford medical treatment. It was all that woman's fault.

Although the boy tried his best to restrain himself, Elise still sensed the faint killing intent emanating from him. She pursed her lips and muttered under her breath, "Having gained a little power, he can't even tell what he's doing. He even dares to show killing intent towards me."

"Back then, as the son of a nobleman, he lacked any sense of judgment and provoked the wrong people, leading to the suppression of his family. When he should have been lying low, he displayed inappropriate emotions. I don't even know what to say about him."

The boy's personality is like this in the game, but he will gradually grow into a mature and reliable person as the game progresses, but that will be a long time from now.

Moreover, Elise also knew that he wouldn't give him that chance.

Just then, the practical class came to an end. Elise stretched lazily, then stood up and said to Nora, "Alright, let's go. There's nothing more to do here."

"it is good."

Nora followed Elise as they left the Magic Academy.

As soon as she stepped out of the academy gate, Vivian's personal maid slowly walked up to Iris, handed her a letter, and then disappeared from the spot.
