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

Thinking of this, she silently looked at Elise and said, "Do you need any more guards? I think I can handle it."

"Well, that depends on your performance. I know where a lot of rare weapons are. Just try your best to please me, and when I'm in a good mood, I might just tell you."

"You've been standing for so long, your legs must be sore. How about I give you a massage?"

"Let's talk about it after you finish training."

"Now you should familiarize yourself with how to use the God-Slaying Weapon, I'll go make some preparations."

As Elise spoke, she summoned Wendy's clone over, projected her spirit onto Wendy's clone, and then activated her battle form.

After making these preparations, Elise reappeared before Nora. This was the method she had come up with from the beginning. If Nora still hallucinated through this method, then Elise would have no choice but to use the Mark of Pleasure.

Nora looked at Miss Wendy's clone and knew that Elise was controlling it. She was actually a little nervous, but she still made up her mind and launched an attack.

"It still doesn't work..." Nora sighed in disappointment.

Perhaps because she knew that Elise was manipulating things, she still experienced that realistic hallucination even when facing Wendy's clone.

Seeing Nora's disappointed expression, Elise also ended her mental projection state and returned to her original form, but there was no disappointment on her face.

"It's okay, we'll try other methods next."

"Hmm? Do you have any other methods?" Nora looked at Elise with some curiosity.

“Of course~” Elise slowly walked up to Nora, a look of pleasure in her eyes: “I’m going to use the mark of pleasure to hypnotize you, but if you are hypnotized by me, I might plant some kind of psychological suggestion in you, such as calling me master whenever you see me.”

Seeing Elise's devilish smile, Nora didn't hesitate at all. She looked at her with clear eyes and said softly, "I believe you."

"Aren't you worried at all?" Elise raised an eyebrow.

Nora remained silent, maintaining eye contact with Elise without flinching.

Seeing Nora's straightforward manner, Elise felt a little embarrassed to tease her.

Now that Nora had made up her mind, Elise didn't hesitate and immediately released the mark of pleasure, beginning to seduce Nora.

She discovered that Nora, this blockhead, offered absolutely no resistance; in fact, she had even lowered her last line of defense.

She wasn't afraid at all of turning her into a slave.

Looking at Nora, who was completely captivated by her, Elise muttered under her breath, "Wooden head."

For Nora, hypnosis felt like a momentary daze, after which she came back to her senses.

Looking at Elise, who was smiling, she asked curiously, "Is that all?"

“Yeah, you’ve already completely let your guard down. If I still spend so much time on you, wouldn’t I seem unprofessional?” Elise muttered.

"Elise."

"what?"

"Didn't you say you would change how I address you?"

Hearing Nora's words, Elise's lips curled up slightly: "So you do care about this kind of thing after all. I thought you didn't care at all."

Nora really wanted to say that it would be fine if it were in private, as long as she didn't call Elise that in front of others, there wouldn't be any problem.

However, she still didn't say those words.

Elise stood in front of Nora again and said softly, "Come on, let's try again."

"it is good."

Nora did not hesitate this time and launched another attack on Elise.

To Nora's surprise, after being hypnotized by Elise, she was no longer experiencing those nightmarish hallucinations. The longsword stopped steadily at Elise's neck. Although Nora was confident in her self-control, she still withdrew the sword due to some psychological trauma.

Looking at Nora, whose eyes were sparkling with excitement, Elise smiled and said, "Don't get so excited. I just postponed your hallucinations to your dreams. They won't appear when you're sleeping with me."

"what?"

Nora was initially taken aback, but then she felt that if simply sleeping with Elise could resolve this issue, it didn't seem so unacceptable.

Seeing that Nora was seriously considering it, Elise couldn't help but twitch her lips: "You blockhead, you don't actually believe that, do you?"

"If you continue like this, you'll be beaten up by Lu Yisi."

"Would you really be willing to hit me?" Nora looked at Elise, who was leaning closer, and seemed genuinely reluctant.

"Then would you let someone else hit me?"

Seeing Nora fall silent, Elise chuckled softly, "That's fine then. I believe that as long as you're here, no one will let me get hurt, right?"

These familiar words made Nora feel a little dazed for a moment, as if she had heard Elise say something like that to her before, but she had no specific memory of it.

Before she could think about it, Elise's special training for her officially began.

Although Elise doesn't have an all-around talent, she had completed the game countless times before her rebirth, and had died and come back to life countless times, so simulating other professions didn't pose much of a problem.

Of course, the only problem is that her simulation only has a framework, and she doesn't have any real power in the field.

But that's enough.

This was the first time Nora had ever realized that Elise had mastered so many professional combat techniques.

It's obviously impossible to remember so much at once, but Elise can hypnotize Nora, so she can force Nora to remember it through hypnosis.

Nora, upon discovering that Elise possessed this ability, looked at her with a hint of excitement. If Elise's hypnosis could force her to memorize certain things, would she then be able to skip the academic subjects in the future?

"I have a feeling that you're thinking of some kind of opportunistic scheme."

"I didn't." Nora really didn't know how to hide her true feelings from Elise, so she could only turn her head away and pretend to be looking at the scenery.

Elise, who couldn't bear to watch Nora's performance, sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, let's take a break. It's time for dinner."

Elise turned around and saw the little maid standing not far away, waiting for her.

Seeing that the two had stopped training, she immediately came over, took a towel, and wiped the fine sweat from Iris's forehead.

At the same time, she was also a little jealous of that red-haired, violent woman. Her young lady had even sweated during training, which was a rare occurrence.

Elise ruffled the little maid's hair and said softly, "Let's go back."

"Yes, ma'am."

The maid respectfully responded and then followed Elise slowly toward the manor. As for Nora, she wasn't their young lady, so she wouldn't bother with her.

Nora didn't mind the maid's preferential treatment and quickly followed after her with light steps.

She had been tormented by nightmares for the past few days, but today she was finally able to escape their clutches.

In the afternoon, not wanting to sweat anymore, Elise pulled her clone over and instilled Brook's fighting style into it, making the clone Nora's sparring partner.

She sat in the shade of a tree, sipping tea and watching Nora struggle in the sunlight, with a maid massaging her shoulders from behind – it couldn't be more comfortable.

It's a pity that Nora doesn't feel resentful about this. Perhaps she prefers intense battles to leisurely tea tasting.

Volume 1: Chapter 260 A Touch of Nostalgia

"Let's go play at Miss Elise's manor!"

Heidi held Elira's hand, her cute little face full of anticipation.

She had asked around beforehand and found out that Miss Elise's manor was quite large, and Miss Elise had also told her that she could play as much as she wanted there, and if she got tired, she could just go to sleep.

Elira looked at her childhood friend with a headache. She had already used up all the excuses she could think of in the past few days, and now she really had no way to delay any longer.

She sighed sadly, then said, "Alright, stop holding me back, I'll go with you, okay?"

"Speaking of which, I get the feeling you seem a bit reluctant to go to Miss Elise's house?"

Although Elira didn't show it very obviously, as her childhood friend, she could still sense some resistance from the other party.

"Perhaps, perhaps it's because Miss Elise doesn't have a good reputation." Elira twitched the corners of her mouth; this was the only reason she could come up with now.

"While that is true, I did not sense any malice from Miss Elise."

Elira smiled without saying a word, because all the malice was directed at her; she had felt Iris's meaningful gaze more than once.

This is Seria after all, and it's practically impossible to avoid contact with Iris before the academy exchange conference ends.

With that in mind, Elira stopped resisting and chose to go with Hattie to visit the other party's estate.

Based on her understanding of Elise, as long as she didn't show any malice towards her, Elise would generally not choose to attack her.

How could an ordinary student like her possibly harbor any ill will towards a world-destroying witch?

The place where Elira and the others stayed was one of the most prestigious hotels in Seria, and it was also the accommodation arranged by the Imperial Magic Academy, so the conditions were quite good.

Just a short walk from the door will take you to the bustling Golden Avenue, and Elise's manor is located nearby.

If you travel by horse-drawn carriage, it won't take much time at all.

Before long, the two arrived at the gate of Elise's manor in a carriage provided by the hotel.

The guard at the entrance asked very politely, "Excuse me, who are you two looking for?"

"We're looking for Miss Elise. Is she home?"

"Please allow me to inquire about your identities."

“We are Miss Elise’s friends, so just tell her that Hattie and Elira have come to visit her.”

"Okay, both of you please come in."

Hattie was somewhat surprised to see that the guards opened the gate without even notifying anyone.

Elira noticed her confusion and pointed to the area around their ears: "Do you see what they're wearing on their ears? That's a magical communication device. He probably already reported the situation while we were talking."

"Magical devices are really convenient."

"Yes, it is indeed quite convenient, but classical magic is just as good. It's just that each has its own advantages and disadvantages."

As soon as the two entered the manor, a lovely-looking maid slowly walked up to them. Upon seeing the maid, Elira's expression stiffened.

The maid looked at Elira with some confusion; this was the second time.

The first time they saw each other on the endless ice plains, the other party also showed a look of fear.

She made sure she looked presentable before going out to greet guests, and even the hostess said she was cute. How could anyone be scared after seeing her?

The maid thought that the other person's fear might not have anything to do with her appearance, so what could it have to do with?

If he remembered correctly, he had never laid a hand on Elira, so she had even less reason to be afraid.

Despite some doubts, Misha still performed her duties as a maid very well, leading the two to the manor's reception room.

After sitting down, Hattie looked around curiously, then exclaimed, "This place is really big! It must have cost a lot of money to buy this place, right?"

“The location here is excellent, and the area is very large. In addition, the designer of the manor is a famous designer, so if you want to buy this place, you will need to spend at least five figures of gold coins.” Elira looked at the surrounding environment, a hint of nostalgia flashing in her eyes.

"Miss Iris's family is quite wealthy."

"Her family owns a gold mine."

"You seem wary of Miss Elise, yet you know her very well. I sense a contradiction in you," Hattie asked her friend curiously.

Elira gave a wry smile and then explained, "Miss Iris's family situation is not a secret. I've heard the students from the Magic Academy mention it when I talked to them these past few days."

"Is that right?"

"Every time we communicate, you hide somewhere to sleep; it would be strange if anyone knew."

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. Communicating is just so boring, and a lot of people have very obvious malice towards us. Like that girl who's been talking to you these past few days, she just really wants to eat you up!"

Elira knew perfectly well what Hattie meant by "eat," and in fact, she sensed it too. But the other party wasn't being unreasonable; in fact, she was very polite. It just goes to show that the atmosphere in the Empire was indeed much more open than in the Kingdom.

Just as the two were chatting about the interesting things that had happened in the past few days, the door to the living room was suddenly opened, and Elise slowly walked in, followed by Nora, who had just finished training.

"Hey Hedy, you've finally come to see me!" Elise said to Hedy with a smile.

"I've wanted to come see you for a while, but I haven't had the time lately," Hattie said with a hint of helplessness.

"The academy exchange conference will last a long time, there will always be time, and you're here now, aren't you?" At this point, Elise looked at Elira next to Hattie: "And Miss Elira, welcome to my manor."

"I hope my sudden arrival has not disturbed Miss Elise."

It was indeed a disturbance, since Elise had just been supervising Nora's training. But it's good that Nora got a little rest.

It's worth noting that Nora has been training incredibly hard these past few days; it's clear she really wants to win the bet.

Elise felt that the so-called hallucinations must have had a great impact on Nora, given that she had gone to such lengths.

"No, not at all. Rather, Miss Elira's arrival is just in time. I have a lot of information about ancient legends that I'd like to share with you."
