I am full of curiosity about everything.
Perhaps this is the aftereffect of being detached from this world for too long.
It's better to be curious about the world than to be alienated from it.
Elise was heading to Golden Street, the most bustling commercial district in Seria, where everything from daily necessities to high-end magical artifacts could be found, and it was even said that you could buy anything as long as you had money.
Such a legend is definitely an exaggeration, but there are indeed many good things here. You can get them for free in the game by exploiting a bug, but that kind of operation can only be done in the game, and you can forget about it in reality.
Moreover, that bug was fixed shortly after it appeared.
Elise and her party only traveled by carriage to the vicinity of Golden Street before stopping.
Because Wendy seemed very curious about everything around her, she decided to get out of the car and walk, which would allow her to better introduce the magical city to her.

Wendy is also a very down-to-earth person. She will definitely ask questions directly if she doesn't understand something, just like a walking encyclopedia of whys.
Fortunately, Elise is a veteran player, and having died and come back to life so many times, she knows a thing or two about everything. Otherwise, she might have been speechless when asked.
Golden Street was bustling, unlike the Gold Coin Street in Star City, which was filled with all sorts of hawking noises. The streets were clean, and guards in magical armor patrolled back and forth.
Elena's gaze swept across the shop next door, and when she saw a glove-shaped magical artifact displayed in the window, her eyes lit up with excitement: "That's a multi-functional magical glove, a magical artifact that adventurers dream of. Can you believe that such a small glove actually has eleven magical circuits engraved inside?"
When she saw the price of the gloves, Elena's eyes instantly cleared.
Nine hundred and ninety-eight gold coins.
Seeing Elena's change in mood, Elise almost burst out laughing.
"This thing is flashy but impractical for the average mage, but it is quite useful for you."
The multi-functional magic glove has too many magic circuits, unlike ordinary magic devices that can be used directly by injecting magic power. Without exceptional awareness and precise calculations, using this thing will only make people flustered and clumsy.
Do you want this?
"You'll take me?"
"No, I have some information. A rich young lady has this item. All I need to do is help her complete a task, and I can get it for free."
"You're not the rich girl you're talking about, are you?"
"Of course not. If I had that information, I would have used it to lure you into working for me for free long ago. If you want to know that information, you just need to work for me for another month for free."
Elise's offer was very tempting. Her monthly salary was only three hundred gold coins. If she could really get the gloves, it wouldn't be a problem to work for free for another month.
"Take your time to think it over, and tell me when you've made up your mind."
"I agree." Elena wasn't one to dwell on things or hesitate.
"I'll tell you the information when we get back."
Elise smiled brightly. She only needed to give up a small piece of information to get Elena, the protagonist, to work for her for an extra month. Moreover, Elena's increased strength would allow her to better protect her.
She had said long ago that three hundred gold coins would be enough to make Elena work for her for the rest of her life.
Wu Elena glanced longingly at the multi-functional magic gloves in the shop window, then quickly followed Elise.

Elizabeth led the two of them through the door of a clothing store, a shop she had visited before that offered both ready-made and custom-made clothing.
"Isn't this Miss Elise? I didn't notice her just now, I thought an angel had descended to my side."
The shop owner is a beautiful woman who still retains her charm. Her true identity is that of a noblewoman, and clothing design is her hobby. This clothing store was opened because of her interest.
Iris wanted to say that if it were an angel descending, then she, as an ordinary person, would have already gone blind.
Putting aside her thoughts of complaining, Elise smiled and said, "Mrs. Mary, you are as dazzling as ever. When you first walked into the store, I thought it was one of your daughters helping out."
2. Lady Mary covered her mouth and chuckled, clearly enjoying Elise's flattery.
"I've come here to pick out some suitable clothes for my friend, and I hope you can give me some advice," Elise said, pushing Wendy forward.
Lady Mary looked at the High Priest's figure with a hint of envy in her eyes. Then she circled around Wendy to observe her before smiling and saying, "You can rest assured that you can leave this to me."
What happened next was no longer of much concern to Elise; she simply sat aside and quietly enjoyed Wendy's dress-up show.
"Elena, why don't you try them on too? If you find any that fit, I can buy them for you."
"no need."
Elena glanced at the light, flowing skirts, completely uninterested; such clothing would only hinder her combat abilities.
It was at this moment that the door of the clothing store was pushed open again, and a maid pushed a girl in a wheelchair into the store.
The girl in the wheelchair was slender and looked somewhat malnourished. She had long gray hair, delicate features, and golden eyes that quietly looked at Elise, who was sitting in the store.
Vivian Horace
The minor noblewoman whom Elise often bullied, the emperor's illegitimate daughter.
The future empress of the empire.
Volume 1: Chapter 49 She really cried!
Elise is now struggling with a question: should she kill Vivian while Wendy, the seventh-tier earth priest, is by her side?
Vivian's current strength is only at the third level, and the maid beside her is only at the sixth level. If Wendy were to make a move, she would surely die.
But along with this thought came the memory of her betting on Vivian.
It's a very simple principle: if you don't give them your true feelings, how can you let them regret it for the rest of their lives?
She gave everything to put Vivian on the throne, even sacrificing herself to send herself to the guillotine.
They weren't supposed to go, but at the last minute they were tricked by a certain protagonist.
Vivian had already been crowned and sat on the high platform. The people below the execution platform were in a frenzy, wishing they could devour this witch who had overthrown the empire alive.
Before dying, Elise glanced at Vivian and saw her hand trembling slightly as she gripped the scepter. She saw her blank eyes. Now the empress, she had no way and could not save the witch who had almost destroyed the empire.
Unfortunately, Elise was no longer able to speak to her at that time, and could only leave her with a smile.
Will that smile still hold when my head is severed?
Unfortunately, once you die, you can't know what happened afterward.
But with Vivian's intelligence, she should be able to become a revered and praised empress, right?
In any case, Vivian would inevitably let out a melancholy sigh whenever she thought about it, and might even secretly shed a little pearl.
Come to think of it, she had never seen Vivian cry.
Would that woman who sees power as everything really cry for herself?
Elise was highly skeptical.
After the brief recollection ended, a faint smile appeared on Elise's face. She then slowly walked up to Vivian, looked at the frail girl sitting in the wheelchair, and was about to say something when she noticed that Vivian was crying.
One after another, glistening tears welled up in her eyes and fell.
Even Vivian herself was stunned for a moment. She subconsciously wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but she couldn't control them. She didn't know why, but when she saw Elise's smile, her heart felt like it had been stabbed, and she felt so sad that she could hardly breathe.
Noticing Vivian's reaction, the maid who was pushing her wheelchair was startled, and her sixth-level aura was stopped by Vivian in an instant.
"I'm fine, let's leave here first."
"Yes."
Elena walked to Iris's side, watching the two of them walk away, and couldn't help but ask, "Why did you make her cry?"
Elena's voice brought Iris back to her senses. Vivian had actually cried. She had thought that the heartless woman would never cry.
For some reason, seeing Vivian cry, Elise felt an indescribable sense of pleasure spread throughout her body. She unconsciously pursed her lips, and an alluring blush rose on her fair cheeks.
She almost couldn't control the side effects of the pleasurable mark.
Seeing the strange flush on Elise's face, Elena instinctively asked, "What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Elena wanted to say something more, but after being glanced at by Elise's alluring gaze, she suddenly forgot what she was going to say.
After sitting back down in her previous spot, Elise began to ponder what exactly was going on with Vivian's reaction earlier.
Given Elena and the maid's experience, she had reason to suspect that Vivian might also retain some of her past memories, though she didn't know how much. Judging from her somewhat panicked state just now, Elise estimated that she probably didn't have many memories left.
But in any case, as long as there are remnants of memory, it means that Vivian's threat to him has been greatly reduced, and the previous issues may no longer need to be worried about.
Perhaps she could even use this to establish a cooperative relationship with Vivian, just like before. This time, she had two more main characters by her side, and Elise was very confident that she could push Vivian back onto the throne of the emperor and make a clean getaway.
Just then, Wendy, who had just changed her clothes, seemed to smell something and slowly walked to Elise's side. Her light green eyes sparkled with curiosity: "You smell like you're in heat."
Elise's smile froze on her face. She quickly glanced at Elena and Mrs. Mary out of the corner of her eye, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she realized that neither of them had heard Wendy's words.
"Do you need my help?"
"No, thank you, but there's no need for that right now." Elise gave a slightly awkward smile. Was the Earth Goddess's priestess a dog? How could she smell this?
Unlike Elise, who was trying to continue the topic, Elise naturally went on to ask, "After trying on so many outfits, is there anything you particularly like?"
"I like them all."
"Then let's buy them all." The wealthy Elise waved her hand, ready to buy all the clothes Wendy had just tried on.
Although the clothes here aren't cheap, Wendy is a seventh-tier Earth Priestess, currently acting as his bodyguard, so of course his needs must be met.
When Mary heard that (Illusion) was going to buy the clothes that Wendy had tried on, her smile became even brighter, and she immediately had the clothes packed up.
Elise originally intended to give it directly to Wendy, but after glancing at the other's flawless white hands, she took out a spatial ring and handed it to her instead.
This is the ring of that fifth-tier magic knight. Iris doesn't need it for the time being, so she simply gave it to Wendy. If it were in the game, there should be a system notification that her affinity with Wendy would increase.
Looking at the ring Elise offered, Wendy's expression suddenly became serious. Then, she extended her left hand and said with a solemn look, "I do."
"What are you thinking? This is a spatial ring for you to store things!" Elise almost lost her composure. Sometimes she really wanted to open up the Earth Priest's head to see what was inside.
Seeing this, Elena couldn't help but twitch her lips, though for some reason she couldn't quite manage a smile.
"Oh."
Wendy seemed a little disappointed when she took the ring. After putting all her clothes away, she changed out of the clothes that didn't fit her. However, she didn't return the clothes to Elise, and Elise didn't seem to care.
"Alright, let me show you around and tell you about the current situation of the Church of the Earth Goddess."
Upon hearing about the Church of the Earth Goddess, Wendy's expression turned serious.
Volume 1: Chapter 50 I Need to Know All Her Information Immediately
"Currently, the Church of the Earth Goddess has very few believers left, mainly active in one of the kingdom's main cities, Shar."
"Because the kingdom does not restrict ordinary churches from proselytizing, you can directly find the church of the Earth Goddess once you arrive there."
"What you need to do now is to integrate the existing believers of the Earth Goddess Church and then go to the Principality of Cleria. There will soon be a famine there, which is the best time for the Earth Goddess to spread her teachings."
"Once the Earth Goddess becomes the mainstream belief in Claire, I will arrange the next step of the plan for you."
"But before that, you need to understand the world better. Only by understanding the world in depth can you spread your faith more effectively."
"When we get home, I'll prepare some books that will be helpful to you. Read them when you have time."
Elise quickly relayed all the current information and the upcoming plans to Wendy. After Wendy processed the information, she nodded gently and said, "Elise is amazing. She's already prepared everything I need to do."
"It's just a simple plan. The specific implementation will depend on you. But you don't need to think about it too much right now. Just focus on understanding the world."
"Ah."
Just then, Elise suddenly remembered something and continued to say to Wendy, "Are you sure you don't need to dispel my charm on you?"
Although Elise didn't think her charm would have any effect on Wendy.
"No need, just consider it an extra layer of insurance."
"Ok."
Since Wendy had already said so, Elise didn't say anything more. In any case, once the mark of pleasure was imprinted, she didn't need to spend any effort to maintain it. It was also thanks to Wendy's complete surrender to her that she was able to easily imprint the mark of pleasure on Wendy's soul.
Otherwise, she would have already unleashed her full potential.
Meanwhile, on the other side, in a carriage.
Vivian sat upright in the carriage, her silent weeping had stopped, only her reddened eyes proved that she had just cried.
"Miss, are you really alright?" Lady Mara, Vivian's maid and a sixth-tier magic knight, looked at her mistress with a worried expression.
