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

“Of course.” Elise smiled smugly.

Following his clone, he arrived at the foot of the Earth Goddess Church, which had been transformed into a giant insect nest.

It's hard to imagine that such a scene would be found beneath the sacred church.

At this moment, Wendy is in the Bug Nest, modifying her Familia.

Although she has already created insects that can survive in the ocean, there is still room for improvement, and she has been busy with this recently.

Sensing the familiar presence drawing closer, Wendy stopped what she was doing, stood up, and gave Elise a big hug.

Hearing the other person inhale, Elise said with amusement, "Can't you be a little more reserved?"

"It's been a while since I've smelled your scent."

At this point, Wendy seemed to remember something, and then said with some disappointment, "You...didn't send..."

Before Wendy could finish speaking, Elise covered her mouth. She was used to it, but with jealousy around, she felt a little embarrassed.

However, Jealousy didn't care about any of that at the moment. Her focus was entirely on the insect nest. What was originally curiosity on her face was now filled with crazy excitement: "You really are a madman. You actually control the power of the insect race. Aren't you afraid of an insect plague breaking out?"

"You should know that even in the age of gods, the insect plague caused considerable trouble for the gods."

"If the insect plague breaks out, it means I'm dead. Since I'm dead, why should I care?" Elise replied calmly.

If it were when she first transmigrated, she might have considered these trivial matters, but with the increasing number of deaths, Elise now only cares about whether she can survive. If she can't survive, then it doesn't seem like a big deal to drag the whole world down with her.

As if sensing something, Wendy squinted and glanced at Elise's side. Although there was nothing there, she felt as if some unknown entity was following Elise.

Elise briefly explained the situation of jealousy to Wendy.

"Is it okay?"

"It's alright. I have something more important to ask you."

Elise explained her plan to Wendy in detail. The Earth Goddess's followers have all been parasitized by Wendy, and gradually changing their perceptions would be too troublesome. It would be simpler for Wendy to use the power of the insects.

Upon learning that Elise had begun to be influenced by the Earth Goddess, a dark glint flashed in Wendy's eyes.

"I understand, and I will change the believers' perceptions and doctrines as soon as possible."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, but you don't need to worry too much."

"Ah."

Elise looked at Wendy, who had fallen silent. Although Wendy usually had a blank expression, Elise could still sense her emotions.

Wendy seems to feel guilty now, perhaps she shouldn't have been so direct in replacing Elise with the Earth Goddess.

"Wendy, I want to ask you a question."

"Ok?"

"Why did my clone turn back into a loli form? Can you explain that?"

"Because it's more comfortable to hold when sleeping at night."

"So you mean I'm uncomfortable to hold right now?" Elise narrowed her eyes, and the smile on her face turned dangerous.

"I...I didn't." Even Wendy was momentarily at a loss when faced with such a potentially disastrous question.

It was rare to see Wendy react so emotionally, and Elise covered her mouth and chuckled softly: "Okay, I was just kidding. I'm glad you like it. Anyway, it's just my clone."

"However, you shouldn't have done anything strange to my clone, right?"

“No.” Wendy glanced sideways, avoiding eye contact with Elise.

Volume 1: Chapter 731 Is He really that easy to talk to?

"I suddenly understand why my sister chose you as her successor."

Watching Elise flirting with Wendy, I felt a strange sense of déjà vu, a strange feeling of jealousy creeping over me.

There was a time when my older sister was like that too; no matter where she went, she would always have a lover by her side.

It was truly a miracle that my sister wasn't divided up among her lovers back then.

She was very curious: didn't the people around Elise have any possessiveness? After all, during the Age of Gods, her sister's lovers were all extremely possessive.

His own sister even caused several wars between the gods.

Ignoring the jealous gossip, Elise took Wendy's hand and left the insect nest.

"Since I've come all this way, why don't you come with me for a stroll?"

"it is good."

Even if Elise hadn't said anything, Wendy was already planning to do it anyway.

The two left the church and arrived at the bustling streets. The Principality of Cleria was now dominated by the Church of the Earth Goddess, and even the Eternal Church could not interfere.

The Eternal Church has paid attention to this issue, but each time something even more troublesome has arisen, making it too late to suppress the development of the Earth Goddess Church now, at least within the Principality of Cleria.

"Nothing should have happened around here recently, right?"

"No, everything is under control, but I feel like I'm about to break through."

"Really?" Elise looked at Wendy with some surprise. If Wendy could break through to the ninth rank, her safety level would increase significantly.

At least we won't have to keep conscripting Lily anymore.

"Hmm, but it's still a little short."

What is needed to make up for this?

"The flesh and blood of God."

“That’s easy. I can even make a list so you can choose carefully.” The incomplete goddess Elise is still too afraid to move, but she can still get her some flesh and blood.

"I want the flesh and blood of war."

After a long period of expansion, Wendy's Zerg now spread across the three major nations, and even the Endless Ice Plains have her followers.

Wendy had thought carefully about how to better utilize the advantages of the Zerg, and after much deliberation, she felt that the power of war was a very good choice.

If her endless swarm of insects could be empowered by the power of war...

"That's pretty much what I was thinking. I should be able to get my hands on the flesh and blood of the war. Come back to Castor with me later."

"it is good."

Just then, Jealousy approached Elise and said, "You have the mark of the Wasteland on you, right? You can try to find the Lord of the Wasteland to eat his flesh and blood. If the swarms of insects with the power of the Wasteland spread throughout the world, then the world's destruction or not will be in your hands."

“What you said makes a lot of sense, but I’m really not familiar with the Lord of the Wasteland. I don’t even know why He chose me. Maybe He’s just grasping at straws in desperation.”

"That shouldn't be the case; He's not such a casual person."

"Why don't you go ask Him?"

"Then forget it, I don't want to be targeted by the Sea God."

Elise gave Jealousy a meaningful look. In her view, Jealousy wasn't unwilling to ask, but rather her condition prevented her from making that choice.

At the Church of Aphrodite, Eloise had told her that jealousy was a bad thing and advised her to work harder.

……

After spending most of the day with Wendy, which hadn't been seen in a long time, Elise finally took her back to Castor.

Upon returning to Elira's manor, Elise went straight to the training grounds.

You can see Nora sweating it out on the training field.

Upon sensing Elise, she immediately dropped the greatsword she was using for training and moved closer to Elise.

Seeing that Nora was drenched in sweat, Elise decisively dodged Nora's hug and said with a look of disgust, "If you dare to hug me, don't even think about coming into my room at night again."

Nora, who had originally wanted to rub against Elise, immediately deflated upon hearing such a threat.

Although the feeling of being drained was unpleasant, she didn't want to lose the opportunity to indulge in pleasure with Elise.

Even though Elise said that she wouldn't refuse if she actually hugged her, she still chickened out.

"Long time no see, Miss Wendy." Nora greeted Wendy. The two had known each other for quite a while and had a pretty good relationship.

Wendy even frequently gave her various insects as gifts. Although they were insects, they had various uses, such as healing, clearing toxins from the body, and even strengthening the body.

Since there were bugs with all sorts of functions, Nora didn't mind and put them all into her spatial ring. She had already used up quite a few of them during the trial on the isolated island.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"I need to talk to you about something. Come to my room... never mind, let's talk while I'm taking a bath." Elise was still reluctant to let Nora, who was covered in sweat, into her room.

Hearing Elise's words, Nora's eyes flashed with doubt, but she still obediently followed Elise into the bathroom.

While taking a shower, Nora asked, "So, you specifically asked to speak with me alone because there's something particularly important?"

"I'm mainly looking for the one inside your body."

"Looking for Him? Just say so, He should be able to hear you."

"I want some of the flesh and blood of war."

Hearing Elise's words, Nora was also taken aback. This sentence clearly showed that Elise already knew how the war had ended.

She was a little worried that Elise might blame her for not explaining things earlier.

Just as Nora was lost in thought, she suddenly felt a crack open in her chest, and a slender, pale arm emerged from her body, handing a mass of flesh to Elise.

Although the seal had been completed, the temperature around the area seemed to rise considerably after the appearance of this mass of flesh and blood, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and burning.

Elise carefully placed the lump of flesh into her spatial ring, then smiled and said, "Thank you."

Nora waved the arm that had been sticking out from her chest, then retracted it again, and the gruesome wound on her chest was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Is He really that easy to talk to?" Nora blinked.

Having awakened many memories from her past life, she knew very well what kind of being the Valkyrie was, and that she was definitely not someone who would be so easy to talk to.

But if the one inside my body isn't the Valkyrie, then who is it?

Volume 1: Chapter 732 A Useless Person

"Elise, who exactly is the one residing in my body?"

Nora looked at Elise with some confusion, feeling that she was the only one who could answer her questions now.

“If He didn’t tell you, I can’t really explain it. Anyway, He probably doesn’t have any ill intentions towards you.”

"Who said that? He said back when we were undergoing trials on the deserted island that if I failed the trials, He would take over my body."

Unable to get an answer from Elise, Nora tried to persuade her relentlessly, but in the end, she exhausted herself without success.

Wendy, who was resting in the lobby, couldn't help but take a deep breath when she saw the two people coming out of the bathroom.

Then, with a serious expression, he said, "You guys have done something bad."

"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Nora waved her hands repeatedly, then ran away as if fleeing.

As for Elise, she was quite nonchalant. She had been trained to be like that; after all, Wendy's nose was just too sensitive. Even after a shower, Wendy could still smell her, and there was nothing she could do about it.

Elise walked over to Wendy and handed her the mass of war flesh: "The war flesh you wanted, although it has fallen into eternal slumber, you'd better be careful."

"it is good."

Meanwhile, Nora had already returned to her room.

She stood in front of the mirror, murmuring to herself, "Who are you, really?"

“A piece of trash who couldn’t even save the one he loved.” The ethereal voice rang in Nora’s ears.

Although their identities were not directly revealed, the other party's explanation actually answered Nora's questions.

A memory involuntarily surfaced in her mind—a memory of Elise dying in her arms, in which she desperately pleaded, hoping that Elise would not die, hoping that the Valkyrie would lend a helping hand, even at the cost of her life and soul.

However, He did not respond, because the proxy war had ended and Nora was no longer of any use to Him.

Even his own strength was completely drained, leaving him a cripple.

In His view, not giving Nora death on the spot was His greatest mercy.

There was clearly still a chance to save her. If He could have left her even a little bit, even just a little bit of power, that would have been enough.

In the end, Nora could only watch helplessly as Elise died in her arms, and Elise even willingly poured her soul into the Book of Souls.

Nora, waking from her reverie, murmured softly, "So it was you. I should have guessed."

"Go and strive to become stronger. This is your last chance if you don't want to repeat the same mistakes."
