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

"Okay, okay, I understand."

When Elise let go, Lily regained her freedom, but at the same time, she felt an extremely strong sense of reluctance.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and then tried to distract herself with other things: "Um, didn't you have someone build a library before? The library is finished now, but there aren't many books in it."

"I have plenty of books, you'll see when you take me there."

Although she didn't know what Elise was thinking, Lily still did as she was told and took Elise directly to the library.

The library was built based on the Library of Fa Zhou in the Void City. Fa Zhou had the blueprints, and Elise gave them directly to Vivian.

She went to the core level of the library and placed the core of the French Library inside.

With the core embedded, the originally empty bookshelves in the library were instantly filled with all kinds of books.

Upon seeing this, Lily couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in her eyes: "How did they do that?"

"Ancient magical technology".

As Elise finished speaking, Fa Zhou suddenly appeared beside her.

She looked around at the familiar surroundings, and her emotions, unusually, fluctuated slightly.

“You can stay here for now,” Elise said softly after seeing Fa Zhou.

"I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to manage this city from now on."

"it is good."

Volume 1: Chapter 377 Why Can't It Be My Daughter?

Hearing Elise's words, Lily also looked at Fazhou with some curiosity.

She had heard Elise mention that the other party was an artificial magical creature from the Void City, and also its administrator.

She was curious about how the other party managed a city.

Noticing the curiosity on Lily's face, Elise smiled and said, "Our city can't do that yet. We need to make the city magical, which will take a long time."

The main problem is the lack of talent in that area. Although Vivian has been gathering the necessary talent, it's not something that can be accomplished overnight by magicalizing the entire city.

"Then just take your time."

Lily was extremely satisfied with the tremendous changes that Hope City had undergone in such a short time.

"Alright, let's go. The library matter is all settled. You can come here to read books when you have free time. It has a collection of books from the Age of Gods. If you want to find any special books, you can ask Fa Zhou. If she has them, she will help you find them."

"Oh."

Upon hearing that the books were from the Age of Gods, Lily immediately became interested, since she had been living in the Forest of Sanctuary for a long time and had not been exposed to information from the outside world.

As if she had just thought of something, Lily tugged at Elise's sleeve and asked curiously, "By the way, if I have time, could I go outside and take a look?"

Feeling Lily's expectant gaze, Elise smiled and nodded: "Sure, but you know the situation of the elves in the outside world, so if you want to go out, you can only come with me for the time being. Do you want to go out and have a look?"

"Is that alright?" Cang

"Of course." Ling

After receiving an affirmative answer, Lily excitedly said, "Then take me to Seria! I heard from Eve that Seria is very prosperous, but I've never seen it before."

"Okay." (Turn)

Lily is a ninth-tier being, and although she's just a paper tiger now, she can still hide her identity from being discovered, which Iris isn't worried about.

Then Iris took Lily to the teleportation array and returned to the manor directly through it.

Emerging from the basement, Lily looked around curiously: "Is this your home?"

"I suppose so. If you'd like to visit, I can take you there."

“I’ll just look around,” Lily said, following behind Elise as they toured the place. 7

Although Lily is getting on in years, having spent most of her time in the Shelter Forest, she is incredibly curious about everything outside, and this curiosity perfectly complements her current endearing nature. 5

Just as Lily was about to ask something, she seemed to sense something, then narrowed her eyes and looked at Iris. She noticed that the way this woman was looking at her was increasingly resembling her mother's.

"Don't look at me with those loving eyes!"

"It's just your imagination. After all, I stole the power of the Earth Goddess, which is why you had that illusion."

"Hehe." 8

How could Lily possibly believe Elise's words? She was far older than Elise; how could she look at her like that?!

Although she was very unhappy, Lily couldn't do anything about it and could only glare at Elise with a huff.

Even when Lily is angry, she is still very cute in Elise's eyes.

"Alright, stop glaring at me. I'll take you out for a walk."

"it is good."

Elizabeth led Lily in a carriage to Golden Street. Although it was winter, Golden Street was still very warm. The border war did not seem to have any impact on the capital of the empire. People were still happily discussing the upcoming festivals and the newly launched magical products.

Looking at the bustling streets, Lily asked softly, "Will our City of Hope become like this someday?"

"Yes, it can, and it will only become more prosperous than here."

"Although I feel that what you're saying isn't very realistic, I still believe you."

"I think you can remove the first half of the sentence."

Elise's beauty and Lily's cuteness made them stand out wherever they went, and quite a few people came to invite her, but she turned them all away.

It's a pity Nora isn't here. If she were around, she could easily fend off all the unwanted suitors he'd attracted.

I wonder how things are going on her end?

Noticing that Elise seemed a little distracted, Lily unconsciously tugged at her sleeve: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to buy you a few outfits."

"Would it be better if I went back to my mature self?"

"No need for that, it's fine as it is."

“I suspect you have some strange fetish.” Lily narrowed her eyes, looking at Elise with a wary gaze.

However, she couldn't maintain her composure for long, because that shameless wicked woman, Elise, suddenly leaned over and rubbed against her face, even giving her a kiss on the cheek.

This made Lily both happy and annoyed, but these complicated emotions were quickly replaced by curiosity and anticipation after she was taken by Elizabeth to Mrs. Mary's clothing store.

"When did Miss Elise get such a lovely little sister?" Mrs. Mary looked at Lily, her face full of excitement.

Feeling stared at like that, Lily could only helplessly hide behind Elise, peeking out warily at the somewhat alluring woman in front of her.

"Can't she be my daughter?" Elise had barely finished speaking when Lily bit her hand, but not hard, leaving only a shallow tooth mark.

“If Miss Iris has a daughter, I think all the young men in Seria will probably be unable to sleep.”

“I imagine those girls probably can’t sleep either,” Elise added.

The two exchanged a smile, chatted casually for a few minutes, and then quickly got down to business. Watching Lily being dragged away by Lady Mary, Elise waved to her with a smile, then casually found a chair and sat down.

Then, with Mrs. Mary's help, Lily tried on many clothes.

Lily's expression gradually changed from initial curiosity and anticipation to utter despair.

After some time, as Elise led Lily out of Mrs. Mary's shop, Lily whispered to Elise, "Are all human clothing stores that scary?"

"Of course not. It's because I'm a regular here that I receive such treatment. If it were someone else, the person who would be serving them wouldn't be Mrs. Mary."

"That's it."

"Of course, it's getting late. Are you planning to head back to Hope Land, or stay here tonight to warm my bed?"

"Who wants to warm your bed?"

Volume 1: Chapter 378 The Brain Is Trembling

Not long after Elise sent Lily back to the Land of Hope, Theresa appeared before her through the teleportation array.

When Theresa saw Elise, a look of disbelief flashed in her eyes. It took her a long time to come back to her senses, and she greeted Elise in a low voice, "You're back."

During Elise's absence, Theresa has been working hard to break the curse. Each time the curse is broken, she regains some memories, most of which are memories after Elise's death, but a small portion are memories before Elise's death.

Because she had regained a lot of memories, she was sometimes unable to distinguish between reality and memories, which is why she felt dazed when she saw Elise.

Only after seeing Elise was she able to quickly regain her sense of reality.

Elise had already noticed Theresa's condition, and she smiled and said, "If you have time tonight, tell me about the memories you awakened."

"it is good."

Theresa responded softly. Just as she was about to ask Iris how her trip to the Holy Kingdom went, Sera also returned here via the teleportation array.

Upon seeing Theresa, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes, a murderous intent surging in her pupils.

"Although you killed me less often, you still killed me before."

Theresa couldn't possibly be unaware of such obvious murderous intent, but she was even more curious about why this person who looked exactly like Elise would say such things.

If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the first time I've met her, right?

Just as the tension was building, Elise coughed twice and then poked Sera's waist.

The familiar movements calmed Sera down again, but her gaze toward Theresa was still not friendly.

"Considering you've helped me quite a few times, I'll let you off the hook for now."

Theresa tilted her head, wondering when she had ever helped her. Why did this person seem even stranger than herself?

"Don't worry about her. Her mental state is a bit unstable right now, but she should get better after a while."

"Oh."

Theresa didn't pay any attention to it; she was just thinking about what the other person had just said.

Seeing Theresa also fall silent, Elise scratched her head in distress. As her memories awakened, Theresa felt increasingly strange to her.

It gives you a sense of being detached from the world.

She felt that those memories were too long ago, which caused the current impact on Theresa.

Elise figured she should keep Theresa by her side for the time being, otherwise Theresa might get lost in her memories if things continued like this.

After leaving the basement, Sera went back to her room first, while Theresa looked at Elise and asked softly, "Why? What did she mean by what she just said?"

"She's not in a good mental state, just pretend she's talking nonsense."

Elise knew exactly what was going on, but she wouldn't say. She wasn't playing around; she just knew that telling Theresa now would have less of an impact. She'd wait until Sera was fully conscious and then tell them.

She wanted to wait until then to see what expressions Teresa and Elena would have, and if possible, also call Vivian and Nora over.

Even just imagining such a scene made Elise's brain tremble.

"You seem to be thinking about something bad."

"Why do you say that?"

“Because in those memories I’ve awakened, in those recollections, you would show that smile every time you wanted to cause trouble,” Theresa replied calmly, stating a fact.

"You're overthinking it. Tell me about the memories you've awakened."

There was still some time before dinner, and Theresa had no intention of hiding anything, so she quietly told Iris about the memories she had awakened during this period.

In her memory, she had been searching all over the world for traces left by Elise, to verify the things Elise had said to her.

Elise said that a god was sleeping in Mount Doom, so she went to Mount Doom and saw the god who only had his upper body left.

Elise had said that the scenery of the Endless Abyss was both eerie and beautiful, and she went to see it, incidentally knocking back a god who was about to be revived from his slumber.

Elise said there was a glutton deep in the Silent Sea, so she went to see it, and the King of Gluttony was there.

Elise listened quietly to Theresa's story, and then realized that the Theresa in her memory had been to all the places she had mentioned, even the most dangerous ones.

However, this shows that Theresa's strength was already terrifying at that time.

It's unknown what Teresa's ultimate strength was, given that she had lived for countless years.

Just as Elise was assessing Theresa's ultimate strength, Theresa silently looked at Elise and softly asked, "How do you know so much?"

Upon hearing Theresa's words, Elise was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Perhaps it's because I have a fragment of the Mirror of Omniscience. With this, you can find out many things if you just want to."

Previously, Elise used reading as an excuse, but now that she knows the system is a fragment of the Mirror of Omniscience, she blames the system.

Although Elise's words were reasonable and well-founded, Theresa clearly did not quite believe what she said.
