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

As the mark of gluttony brought a wave of pleasure, the corruption on Elise's body was completely devoured.

As for the pollution at the soul level, the Gluttony Mark can also devour it, but it is not as efficient as the pollution on the body. However, it is estimated that it will not be long before it can devour the pollution at the soul level.

"Okay, I'm fine now."

“Wait, your eyes.” Elena noticed that Elise’s eyes were still bloodshot.

"It'll be fine in a few days. Compared to that, you haven't forgotten your promise to me, have you?"

"what?"

"Gift~"

Volume 1: Chapter 456 What about me?

Elena was conflicted. Based on her understanding of Elise, she knew that Elise would happily accept any gift she gave her.

But she couldn't just give her anything random, could she?

She had thought a lot about Elise's preferences, but it seemed that Elise didn't lack any of those things.

Unable to come up with a solution, Elena teleported directly to the Land of Hope to discuss it with her sister.

Flora, who was conducting experiments in the Land of Hope, surprisingly put down her work and took her sister directly to her room after learning the purpose of her sister's visit.

Even Elena was somewhat surprised by this reaction.

Feeling her sister's surprised gaze, Flora glanced at her sister guiltily and said, "Miss Iris has helped me a lot, so I should help her out in this matter no matter what."

Elena thought about it carefully and felt there didn't seem to be any problems, so she walked over and sat down, then asked, "So do you have any good suggestions?"

"Let me think... Miss Elise likes morning dew flowers, how about we customize a piece of jewelry in the shape of a morning dew flower for her?"

"Nora has already delivered it."

"How about those nice clothes?"

"She has a dress that can be changed at any time."

"Then, sister, think about what nice things you have. As long as it's something nice, Miss Elise will definitely like it."

"Something beautiful?"

Elena scratched her head, then began to examine her spatial ring.

She currently has a lot of various things in her spatial ring, but after searching around, she realized that there really wasn't anything suitable to give Elise as a gift.

After the two sisters discussed this for a long time, Elena suddenly discovered a problem.

She asked with some curiosity, "Flora, it seems like you know Elise better than I do?"

When asked this question abruptly, Flora's expression froze, but she still forced herself to explain, "I... I've spent quite a bit of time with Miss Iris, so I should be able to figure out what she likes if I just observe her more, right?"

"That seems to be true." Elena nodded gently, then sighed wistfully. So, what should she get as a gift?

Elena glanced around her sister's room, then fixed her gaze on her sister and said jokingly, "Why don't we give you to her?"

"what?"

"It was just a joke, don't be so nervous." Seeing her somewhat bewildered sister, Elena's lips curled into a pleasant smile.

She now understood a little better what it felt like for Elise to tease others.

"Really, don't make jokes like that." Flora muttered under her breath before continuing, "Actually, Miss Iris would probably like anything you give her, right?"

"I know, but I want to give her something special."

"Sis, you've changed. You used to never spend so much time on things like this."

Elena wanted to refute it but couldn't bring herself to say it. She could only sigh helplessly and then said to her sister, "Stop making sarcastic remarks and help me think of something."

Just then, Elena suddenly thought, why don't she go and ask her dream self? Compared to her understanding of Elise, her dream self should know more than her current self, right?

Thinking of this, Elena said very directly, "Flora, you think about it first, and let me borrow your bed for a bit."

"Huh?"

Flora was speechless for a moment when she saw her sister fall asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed.

Meanwhile, Elena had already entered the burning church.

This time, her appearance wasn't met with a sneak attack from her other self. Elena remained on guard for a while, and only after confirming there were no problems did she ask her other self, "You should know why I came to find you, right?"

"You'll have to figure out the gift yourself."

"No, I am you, and you are me. If I could think of something to give, I wouldn't be asking you for advice."

In her dream, Elena glanced at her with a hint of helplessness, her gaze seemingly carrying a sense of disappointment. However, Elena paid no attention, instead looking at her other self with expectant eyes. Zero

"Just give her your ring."

Elena paused for a moment, then quickly realized that the ring her other self had mentioned was probably a space teleportation ring that she always wore on her hand, which could be used once a day to instantly move her location within a certain range.

She had acquired this item by chance, and had relied on it to resolve many crises.

However, she doesn't really need this thing anymore, but because it saved her many times, she always carries it with her as a talisman.

Giving this to Elise as a gift would seem like a pretty good idea.

Thinking of this, Elena smiled and said, "Thanks, I'll head back now and we'll talk again tonight."

After Elena left the dream, in the burning church, Elena in the dream also sighed with some melancholy.

"Flora, I've got it!"

Upon waking up, Elena immediately shared the thoughts she had received from her other self with her younger sister.

After listening to her sister's words, Flora nodded gently and said, "Yes, I think Miss Iris will be very happy."

"Then it's such a happy decision."

"Wait, wait a minute, I also have a gift I'd like to give to Miss Elise. Could you help me take it with me?"

"If you want to give her something, just contact her directly; it's not far anyway."

"I... I still have a lot of things to do right now. Since you're going to deliver a gift anyway, you might as well take mine with you," Flora said somewhat guiltily.

"Okay, but why did you suddenly decide to give Elise a gift?"

"Because...because Miss Iris helped me a lot, I wanted to thank her, so I specially made a magical device that can isolate the influence of the surrounding environment."

"what about me?"

"As for my sister, I'll make it for you when I have time."

After saying that, Flora seemed to have something urgent to attend to. She handed the things to her sister and quickly left the room.

Watching her sister's departing figure, Elena couldn't help but blink. She had just been helping her think of a solution, and now she was suddenly busy.

I feel like I'm starting to not understand my sister's thoughts anymore.

Volume 1: Chapter 457 So, you weren't proposing to me after all.

"You've already decided what gift to give me?"

Elise, who was admiring the flowers, knew it was Elena without even turning around when she heard footsteps.

Hearing Elise's words, Elena responded softly, "That's right, I've already decided what gift to give you."

"I'm so looking forward to it! What gift will you give me?"

Elena walked up to Elise, took off the ring on her hand in front of her, and said, "This is for you."

When Elena handed her the ring, Elise couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

She had used this item before. In the early stages, it was indeed a pretty good special item, but at their current level, a random teleportation wouldn't have much of an impact on the battle, and the randomness was also a problem.

Although this item may not seem to have much value, Elise knew very well that this ring had saved Elena many times and held a very important place in Elena's heart.

Elise once tried to coax Elena into giving her the ring, but Elena refused, only offering to lend it to her temporarily.

Now Elena has actually given this ring to herself as a gift.

Seeing Elise's surprised expression, Elena couldn't help but chuckle: "So? Are you satisfied with this gift now?"

"Weren't you proposing to me?" Elise looked disappointed.

Hearing her words, Elena, who had been full of confidence, suddenly froze. Why did this woman suddenly bring up the topic of marriage proposal?

"When I saw you give me the ring just now, I thought you were going to propose to me. I had already thought about how to respond to you, and then you said it was a gift for me."

"Do you think I'd believe what you're saying?" Elena glanced at Iris.

"I'm so heartbroken that you don't believe what I said." Elise wiped away non-existent tears, then took the ring from Elena's hand and, under Elena's gaze, put it on her ring finger.

Upon seeing this scene, Elena's heart suddenly began to race for some reason, and even her expression became somewhat uneasy.

"On another note, aren't you even a little bit tempted? If you propose to me, you'll be practically hooking up with a rich woman!"

"Oh, right." Elena had a look of sudden realization. How come she hadn't thought of that before? If she had, she might have followed along with Elise's words.

"Unfortunately, it's too late for you to regret it now~"

Elise stuck her tongue out at Elena, looking incredibly cute.

Although Elena despised Elise's cutesy behavior, she had to admit that Elise was somewhat adorable when she did try to be cute, just a little bit.

Elena didn't forget her sister's request. She took out a small box and handed it to Iris, saying, "This is what Flora asked me to give you. She said it's a magical device that can isolate the influence of the surrounding environment."

"Oh?"

Elise opened the box, inside was a pair of exquisitely designed earrings.

Flora only puts in the effort to make the magical artifacts more beautiful when she's making them for Iris; as for others, she just makes them as practical as possible.

Elise tried putting on the earrings and discovered that as long as magic was injected, the magic would be converted into a protective film through the magic device and cover her body, which could isolate her from most of the environmental influences and even purify the air.

For Iris, who is somewhat of a germaphobe, it was a very practical magical artifact.

"I really like this gift. I'll go thank her in person when I have time."

How are you doing now?

"It feels pretty good. I estimate that in a few more days, the pollution will be completely cleared."

"Well, the chaos in Seria has gradually subsided recently, but the blockade of Golden Leaf Street has not been lifted yet. Just as you expected, the blame for the divine descent ritual has been shifted to the kingdom. It seems that the war is not going to end easily."

"That's normal. Before the creation of a god is completed, the empire will absolutely not let the war end."

Just as Elise was chatting with Elena, Little White suddenly appeared out of nowhere and rushed straight into Elise's arms.

"Uh-huh-huh."

Little White nestled in Elise's arms, looking aggrieved, as if she were confiding in Elise.

Ever since Hattie came back with Elise, she's been petting it every day, and no matter how well she hides in some secluded corner, Elise can always find her.

Xiao Bai had no other choice but to come to Elise.

Before Elise could offer any words of comfort, Hattie suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

However, Hattie looked a little different than usual. She had a pair of fluffy animal ears on her head, and a tail was sticking out from under her skirt, wagging constantly.

Seemingly having smelled something, she, like Little White, charged straight towards Elise.

Upon seeing Hattie, Elena didn't stop her. However, she didn't expect that Hattie would also jump into Elise's arms, just like Little White.

Hattie, who had rushed into Elise's arms, rubbed her face against the trembling little white dog, her face full of satisfaction.

"Ahem." Elise coughed lightly twice, and when she found that Hattie didn't react, she rubbed her animal ears. Only then did Hattie realize what she had done.

She stood up somewhat awkwardly, then scratched her head and said, "Sorry, I smelled Xiaobai's scent and didn't notice it was in your arms."

"Stop staring at Xiaobai like that, or she might start to hate you."

"Huh? No, I don't want that kind of thing." Hattie looked at Little White pitifully.

"Xiaobai said that you can only pet it three times a day, and each time it can not exceed half an hour. Also, every time you pet it, you must bring its favorite dried fish."

"Wouldn't three times be a bit too few? How about adding more, like thirty times? Or we could increase the duration, eight hours each time would be fine."

Elise flicked Hattie's forehead in annoyance: "Don't push your luck."

"Oh."

Hattie rubbed her forehead, then picked up the little white cat from Elise's arms and rubbed it against her before asking softly, "Um, I hope it won't be too dangerous for Elira to go back over there?"

"Don't worry, she has a ninth-level being protecting her."
