This necromancer is going to seduce the beautiful girls who are already dead.

This body is a near-perfect replica of Flora's appearance. From the outside, it is not much different from the current Flora. The only obvious difference is that the blood in this body flows under the pumping of the heart, so its complexion is rosy and more vibrant and alluring than Flora's slightly pale skin due to her undead status.

"Looking at yourself from this perspective, don't you find yourself so beautiful? This is the real you in your previous life, a lively and energetic young girl." Rebecca put her arm around Flora's shoulder from behind. "Come and try it!"

Flora bit her lower lip and nodded, feeling a little excited.

"Would Abyss like to try your body too?" she asked.

Abyss shook his head: "No need for now, I don't have any need for 'feeling' right now. Let me help you try out the new bodies—Rebecca, have the people of Eternal Night City send out your spare bodies as well, I want everyone to experience them."

"Really!" Leona's eyes lit up. "I heard that Rebecca had the City of Eternal Night create a new body for them, and she even made some extra requests. I was just about to give it a try. Hurry, ABC, don't waste time!"

Rebecca smiled and opened a spatial rift in Helheim, allowing the people of Eternal Night City to bring out the spare bodies of their other family members.

And the Abyss, through necromancy, began to connect the souls of his followers with their new bodies.

These high-tech alchemical dolls were remarkably advanced in every aspect; their appearance, function, and even the speed at which they established connections were all highly satisfactory. The girls felt their consciousness flicker for a moment before they had already taken control of their new bodies, and some long-lost yet familiar sensations were instantly transmitted to their consciousness through the simulated nerves of the alchemical dolls.

"My heart... is really beating!" Flora lost control, but the original body carrying her soul was sent back to Helheim by the Abyss. The body that had been sitting still suddenly became lively with its eyes. She touched her chest, feeling her body temperature, heartbeat and pulse, and looked very surprised.

"Hehe, look at me!" Leona's smug voice came at this moment.

Everyone looked at Leona: Leona was very different from usual. She looked like she had grown up five or six years, with a tall and slender figure and a heroic air. However, her facial features still revealed that she was Leona.

This is what Leona looks like now that she's grown up. This is how Leona was supposed to grow, but she was cursed by the Lord of the Fallen and stopped growing at the age of twelve.

"How about it, isn't it beautiful?" Leona stood there proudly with her hands on her hips, deliberately showing off her grown breasts to everyone.

"It's pretty, but it's not quite the same," Abyss commented seriously, stroking his chin. "I'm not used to seeing you so tall. Why don't you squat down?"

Chapter 346 The Preciousness of Life

Abyss, of course, got a beating from Leona.

However, Leona, now in a new body, was exceptionally gentle this time, her little pink fists barely scratching the Abyss.

There are two reasons for this: one is that the bodies the girls use to experience the feeling of being alive are not original, so their strength is greatly reduced.

For example, Leona can only reach the level of a Supreme Aura Warrior at best, which is vastly different from the extraordinary combat power she could unleash when using her original body. To put it simply, if this body had its own consciousness and did evil, Leona could easily kill it with a single punch when using her original body.

Another reason is that Leona is actually quite happy right now, and when she hits the Abyss, she's just being affectionate and doesn't use much force.

"Wow, after I beat up the Abyss, I could even feel my fists hurting a little." Leona expressed her delight at her new body. "I haven't felt this way in a long time. Before, I didn't feel pain, and I could hardly feel that I was alive."

Abyss straightened his clothes, which had been somewhat disheveled by Leona's attack, and said, "Because you were indeed already dead before."

“Oh yeah.” Leona scratched her head.

“This feeling… is so wonderful,” Flora said. “When I was alive, I never truly understood how wonderful it was to have a life. Only now do I realize how joyful it is to feel my heart beating in my chest.”

“Life is a precious thing, and everyone should cherish it.” Rebecca’s face showed some emotion. “Perhaps this is a kind of human nature, that we only realize the value of something after we have lost it.”

Abis nodded, completely agreeing. Having lived this long, he had visited countless graves and seen all sorts of dead people, many of whom regretted not treasuring their lives and leaving behind too many regrets.

"Ah...this body...the level of accuracy is truly astounding." Sophia had just gone into the cabin and, after doing something, emerged from the hatch to say to everyone, "They've recreated every single detail of my body, exactly like when I was alive. How did those experts in Eternal Night City manage to do that?"

Flora didn't understand Sophia's meaning at first, but Rebecca next to her immediately knew what Sophia had just hidden away to look at.

She smiled and said, "Don't worry, all the experts in charge of replicating our bodies this time are women, so there won't be any problems."

“Men don’t really matter…” Sophia said, then suddenly remembered that she had a wife, Abyss, whom she wanted to marry, and immediately put on a serious face. “Yes, that’s right. I won’t let any other man besides Abyss see my body.”

"So, these bodies will simulate all our life activities?" Leona asked Rebecca at this moment.

Rebecca nodded affirmatively: "Yes, even your monthly period will arrive on time. If you eat too much sweet and greasy food, you might even get pimples on your face."

"Wow, this is so much fun!" Leona exclaimed happily.

She used to dislike both of these things, but now, after a long separation, she feels a special kind of joy in reuniting with them.

“However, apart from Abyss and Flora, the rest of us still need to switch back into our original bodies before reaching the mainland. You guys should take advantage of the time to experience it.” Rebecca smiled and adjusted a pair of glasses on her nose—now that she was using a body that simulated her previous state, Rebecca also needed a pair of delicate glasses to enhance her vision. “We are responsible for the safety of Abyss and Flora.”

"Ah, I get it, I get it, ABC, hurry up and take some delicious food out of the magic catfish, I want to experience what it feels like to be stuffed!" Leona hurriedly called out to Abyss.

Abyss, of course, wouldn't disappoint the girls who finally had the chance to experience their new bodies. He quickly took out what the girls wanted from the magical catfish.

Leona was given all kinds of meat, dairy products, nuts, etc., which are her favorite high-calorie foods.

What was given to Rebecca were some alchemical herbs that she liked to eat when she was alive—these herbs had the effect of refreshing the mind, and Rebecca, as an undead, had not experienced the feeling of "refreshing the mind" for a long time.

What Agnes received were some bird eggs—Agnes didn't actually want anything, but according to her, when she was bored, she would lie on some bird eggs and try to incubate them with her body heat. This was one of her little quirks, but given Agnes' somewhat eccentric personality, it's not surprising that she had such a quirk.

Sofia didn't ask for anything; she went straight to the side to do her assassin's physical training. This kind of training would have given her a feeling of exhaustion and a sense of satisfaction when she was alive, and she wanted to use this method to rediscover long-lost happiness.

What was given to Flora was the hand of the Abyss.

Like Sophia, Flora didn't need anything. She placed Abyss's hand in her own palm and used the warmth of her palm to warm Abyss's body, which was slightly below average.

Flora used to enjoy holding other people's hands with her warm hands. In her view, a pair of warm hands could give others confidence and make the person being held feel at ease. But after becoming a ghost, Flora had to rub her hands vigorously before holding someone's hand to create some heat that did not come from her body temperature, and because of her ghostly nature, this little bit of heat would dissipate quickly.

Now, Flora can finally use her own warmth to comfort the Abyss.

After Abyss confessed his feelings to her, Flora seemed to become bolder. Her face was still flushed, and she didn't dare to stare at Abyss for too long, but her grip on Abyss's hand remained firm.

“Your hands are so warm right now, I love them,” Abis said, turning to look at her. “Have you wanted to do this for a long time?”

“Hmm…” Flora nodded and said softly, “This is also one of my wishes.”

“Then hold my hand like this until we disembark on the mainland,” Abys said, gazing into the distance.

"Huh?" Flora was taken aback, not expecting Abyss to be so good at flirting.

“At our current pace, it should take another two days. Hang in there,” Abis said. “They can feed you. What do you think of this challenge? Is it fun?”

Flora secretly stuck out her tongue. Her memory was indeed correct; it was the Abyss who could say those words.

Chapter 347 Return to the Mainland

Abyss didn't expect to keep his departure from the Shadowfall a secret for long. The Three Venerables couldn't possibly have missed the tricks he'd made to the mage tower used for surveillance. They were likely already aware that Abyss had just left the Shadowfall, which was why the Moonbeam didn't control its speed this time.

With the Abyss continuously propelling the Moonlight forward with magic, the ship's speed increased significantly, and it only took two days to travel from the Shadowfall, around the southeastern part of the continent, to the port of the Western Empire located in the central part of the continent.

Flora, of course, did not accept the challenge from the Abyss; she simply enjoyed two days of human life on the ship.

I feel hungry if I don't eat, I feel very tired if I don't sleep, and I can even feel the foot pain that I often experienced when I was giving speeches back then after standing for a long time.

This feeling wouldn't make ordinary people happy, but it was a very interesting experience for the Abyss's retinue of undead.

Two days passed quickly, and Abyss and his party successfully arrived at a port in the Western Empire.

“I’ll do one last thing to prevent ordinary people from noticing our difference. Now Flora’s vacation can officially begin. After this, I won’t use magic anymore, and the guard duties will be entirely in your hands.” Abyss looked at the land getting closer and closer in the distance, turned around, and smiled at everyone. “Oh, right, there’s something very important I have to tell you. I’ve regained my emotions now.”

"That's great. You don't say anything human when you're emotionless," Leona said, sitting on the railing at the bow of the ship, pouting.

Now, apart from Flora, all the other members of her familiars have changed back into their original bodies and are ready to officially begin their mission.

These past two days, Abyss has been speaking with an extreme seriousness because he lacks emotion, which has annoyed Leona quite a bit.

Under the Abyss's magic, the Moonlight, near the harbor, was transformed into an ordinary civilian passenger ship, causing no commotion when it docked. After undergoing routine port inspections and concealing the Moonlight using a trick, the Abyss and their party bought a carriage and prepared to head to their vacation destination, Salt Lake Town.

……

Before they reached the shore, Abyss had already designed everyone's identities and commissioned the artisans of the City of Eternal Night to make ordinary-style clothes for them.

The Abyss and Flora were now dressed like two bards, in the tight-fitting clothes and cloaks often worn by bards, and slightly flamboyant hats decorated with feathers. The Abyss was carrying a lute, while Flora was holding a magnificent lyre.

The other family members responsible for the guards dressed up as maids and acted as accompanying maids.

The Abyss group now resembles two well-off artists traveling with their maids, gathering inspiration.

"I never imagined that I, a princess of the empire, would be dressed as a maid." Leona sat in the carriage, dressed in a maid's outfit, and seemed a little uncomfortable, constantly fiddling with the corset around her waist.

Rebecca smiled and swayed slightly as she showed Abyss herself in a maid outfit: "I've heard some guys really like girls in maid outfits. What do you think of me, Abyss? Do I look good?"

Agnes followed Rebecca's example, sitting opposite the Abyss and gently swaying her body along with Rebecca.

Abyss looked at it carefully for a while, then said, "Hmm...not bad, but too clean. If you could put some dust on your clothes, I think you would look more like maids."

"You really think we're just laborers!" Leona snapped.

“Sir, Madam, it’s getting late. Let’s rest in the town ahead for a while,” Sophia said to the people inside the car.

Ever since Sophia and the Abyss disguised themselves as Spin and successfully infiltrated the Council of the Dead with great success, Sophia has discovered that she really enjoys role-playing games, and she is now quite immersed in playing a maid.

"Madam...?" Flora, who had been smiling at everyone, immediately lost her composure upon hearing Sophia's address. "Sophia, are you going to call me Madam?"

“Of course, don’t forget, we’re now a couple of artists getting engaged, so you’d better play your role as a good fiancée.” Abis leaned closer to Flora. “Remember what I told you before we disembarked?”

"Ah...do you really want to do this?" Flora's face immediately turned as red as a ripe apple.

Before disembarking, Abyss had already planned everyone's identities, and Flora is now playing the role of Abyss's fiancée.

Flora was initially happy when Abyss told her all this on the ship, but when Sophia, who was already in character, called her "Madam," she became a little shy.

Moreover, before disembarking, Abyss told Flora to call him "darling" in front of others, and to do so even when they were alone.

"Say it out for me?" Rebecca said to Flora with a mischievous smile.

"Kiss...kiss..." Flora felt so weak that she couldn't call out for a long time.

Leona crossed her arms and said smugly, "What's so difficult about this, Flora? Look at me—my dear, my dear, my dear, isn't it easy?"

“You didn’t call out to the Abyss,” Agnes pointed out Leona’s mistake as she stood by.

“I…I don’t have to play the fiancée of ABC! Why should I call him…” Now it was Leona’s turn to be even redder than Flora’s.

“…Darling…” Flora finally whispered to Abyss.

Abis reached out and ruffled Flora's hair with satisfaction: "That's a good way to call me that. Don't be nervous, relax. When we get into town, you have to keep calling me 'darling,' okay?"

"Mmm..." Flora cupped her burning cheeks in her hands, too embarrassed to speak.

The carriage slowed down and entered a small town with perhaps only one or two thousand inhabitants. The sound of the carriage wheels attracted the curious gazes of the townspeople who had just finished dinner and were strolling around.

“Let’s find a hotel to stay in first,” Sophia said, turning around. “I just looked at the map, and there’s not much else to stay around here. Sir and Madam still need to eat and rest.”

“Indeed, I’m a little hungry too. Sometimes, even in an ordinary person’s body, I can get a bit craving.” Abyss smiled at Flori. “You’re hungry too, aren’t you? The fruit we bought in the villages along the way probably won’t last long.”

Just as Abyss and Flora were discussing what to eat for dinner, an old man from town suddenly came up and knocked on the carriage window.

"Are you two planning to stay in town? Come to my inn—I can tell you're here on your honeymoon, I'm sure you'll be satisfied!"
