The villain daughter did all kinds of things

The old lich had lived for over a thousand years. Besides studying necromancy and the mysteries of life, he had also explored many things based on his interests and intuition. His experience far surpassed that of Amelie—a life experience that was dozens of times older than Amelie's, which could not be compensated for by the memories of a transmigrator alone.

The combined age of Ameliete across her two lifetimes is less than a fraction of the old lich's age.

Therefore, the old lich was able to answer most of the whimsical questions that Emery asked during tutoring sessions, and even if he couldn't answer them, he could still give valuable advice.

In particular, the knowledge about the mysteries of life, death, and the world is something that was not mentioned at all in the original game of Amelie's previous life, and it is also beyond the scientific and philosophical level of the Blue Star civilization.

All of this knowledge greatly benefited Emery.

Many transmigrators harbor a deep-seated arrogance, believing that the technologies and philosophies of their former homeland are far superior to those of the native inhabitants of this new world… Some transmigrators even think that their mere 50 years of life experience makes them more worldly-wise than those who have lived for tens of thousands of years.

Amelie never acted that way. Even though she had a deep memory of every aspect of the original game's settings as a veteran player in her previous life, she always maintained a respectful attitude when facing the various knowledge and mysteries of this world.

This mindset allows Amelite to quickly accept and absorb new knowledge. Even if something completely contradicts the beliefs of the Earthlings, Amelite can adapt to it quickly.

For example, the old lich's views on life and death almost completely overturned the Blue Star civilization's understanding of biology and medicine, which Amelie was able to quickly accept and integrate according to her own understanding and her existing knowledge.

Furthermore, Amelie is now a Fusion-stage mage, possessing far more magical power and a higher level of understanding than when she was learning necromancy from the old lich. The effect of her remedial studies can be described as rapid progress.

Just like in martial arts novels, once you have a certain divine skill as a foundation, you can learn other moves and ultimate skills very quickly. Similarly, Amelie's necromancy skills are also advancing by leaps and bounds.

A few days later, when Amelie, who looked somewhat haggard with dark circles under her eyes, was finally released by the old lich, she already had her first elite undead warrior.

It was that beautiful woman in the kimono. Now, the body of the beautiful woman in the kimono, which had been split diagonally from the neck to the heart, had been completely restored and was almost indistinguishable from when she was alive. She could talk, laugh, breathe, and had body temperature. She could even be healed by the Flame of Life. If it weren't for a practitioner specializing in necromancy carefully examining it, it would be almost impossible to discover that this beautiful woman in the kimono was actually a corpse.

This can be considered a unique form of necromancy for Amelie.

When Amelie first learned necromancy from the old lich, she was attracted by necromancy's outstanding ability in intelligence gathering.

Therefore, the spirits that Emerald meticulously creates will not retain their former strength as much as possible or even become stronger than Granny Ya's spirits. Instead, they will be incredibly similar to living people, to the point that non-professional detection methods cannot distinguish them.

When Emerald and Mengmeng first met, Emerald killed a suspect that Mengmeng had captured and replaced him with a ghost. Mengmeng didn't discover this until she brought the suspect back to the FBI headquarters and sent him to the forensic department for examination.

Back then, Amelie's necromancy skills were vastly different from what they are now... Even the FBI's professional forensic team might not be able to spot the flaws in the kimono-clad beauty so quickly.

Of course, such exquisite works require a lot of effort to make.

When the kimono-clad beauty was first turned into a ghost, she, like Wayne and Mondorie, was completely beyond Emerald's control.

However, she lacked the backbone of Wayne and Mondorie. After becoming a ghost, her first thought was not to seek revenge on Emerald, but to beg Emerald for mercy in a humble manner, and even used many means to try to seduce Emerald.

Unfortunately, although Amelie loves beautiful women, she is so surrounded by them that she has become extremely immune to their allure. In the game, she would be immune to 99.99% of charms, and she would remain unmoved no matter what methods the beautiful woman in the kimono used.

After about a week, under the old lich's personal guidance, Amelie slowly ground down the body, like simmering beef brisket over a low flame, until she finally obliterated the soul and consciousness of the kimono-clad beauty and brought the corpse, which had been transformed into an undead, under her complete control.

In the process of erasing the soul and consciousness of the kimono-clad beauty, Emerald naturally also saw many of her memories and gained more information.

The kimono-clad beauty's full name is Hoshino Miki. She is from the Hoshino family, one of the three great families of Kamioka Province, but she is not a young lady or a lady. Instead, she is a firearm trained by the Hoshino family.

Hoshino Miki did not reach the Enlightenment stage through her own talent and hard work. She was soaked in various strange medicinal baths by the Hoshino family for decades from a young age. Only after being soaked in these baths did she become an artificially created Enlightenment stage powerhouse under the influence of powerful medicines and special magic.

This explains why Hoshino Miki, after becoming a ghost, showed no fighting spirit and only begged for mercy. Her strength was not something she cultivated step by step on her own; she lacked the will and pride that a strong person should have.

Hoshino Miki is naturally alluring, and her mission is to use her body to expand her family's network. She is a famous socialite in Kamioka Province, and many men and women fall for her charms.

Among the 11 Enlightenment stage experts who came to intercept Milaine this time, two unlucky ones actually had little to do with the conservative faction of the three families. Instead, they slept with Hoshino Miki and were then tricked into coming with weapons. In the end, they all became new recruits of Granny Ya's undead army.

The man named Masaki Sakurai seems to be Miki Hoshino's true love, and Miki Hoshino even gave birth to a child for him.

Unfortunately, Sakurai Masaki has the face of a male protagonist in a Japanese light novel, but his actions are even worse than those of the villains. He only wants to be the queen's husband, and he only uses Hoshino Miki. He even actively orders Hoshino Miki to sleep with other people for him.

In short, Hoshino Miki is a true socialite who has been played with countless times; she's so worthless that she doesn't even deserve to be Emerald's slave.

However, Emerald was quite satisfied with Hoshino Miki's identity—this kind of socialite was perfect as an intelligence agent. After all, the most distinctive feature of Emerald's spirit was its resemblance to the living, allowing Hoshino Miki to continue her previous work, only now with a new master.

Furthermore, in Hoshino Miki's memory, these conservative members of the three founding families who attempted to intercept Milaen had a backup plan in case the attack failed.

The core of the backup plan is Hoshino Miki and Sakurai Masaki's daughter, Hoshino Ayahime. This Hoshino Ayahime is three years younger than Emerald, and surprisingly, she has a very good relationship with Princess Amamiya Rin of the Upper Sakura Kingdom, who is Emerald's cousin. They are at the point where they can hold hands and go to the bathroom together during breaks at school.

The conservative faction of the three main families planned that if their ambush plan failed, they would have Hoshino Ayahime lure Amamiya Rin away and kidnap her, using her as a hostage to negotiate with Milaine and exchange the ambushers who might be defeated and captured for her.

Of course, this plan is no longer needed, because the ambushers have all entered the old lich and Amelie's undead space.

However, it is still possible for Hoshino Ayahime to lure and kidnap Amamiya Rin, and given her relationship with Amamiya Rin, the probability of success would be very high.

After some thought, Emery decided to keep this information hidden for the time being. Regardless of what conditions the conservative faction of the three founding families wanted to negotiate by using Rin Amamiya as a hostage, since Rin Amamiya was still a hostage, she should not be in any danger. Moreover, the conservative faction of the three founding families was only at odds with Milaine, and it would be too foolish for them to completely turn against the royal family.

Since that's the case, Emery decided to make good use of this opportunity to make a grand entrance in front of her cousin.

Whether or not her cousin should flirt with Amelie is still undecided, but it's definitely okay to first act cool as the older sister and leave a good impression.

Eleven days after the battle of the small island, and two days after Emeryte's tutoring session ended, and with the fleet still about three days' voyage away from Shangying Kingdom, it seems that the conservative faction of the three founding families has finally been discovered within Shangying Kingdom.

That morning, just as Amelie was about to go fishing again after finishing her tutoring class, she sensed several strong auras rapidly approaching the fleet in the distance.

"...Mother-in-law?"

At first, Emerald thought it was the second wave of assassins from the conservative faction of the three starter families, so she quietly asked the old lich while changing into her magical costume and preparing for battle.

"rest assured."

The old lich's voice, whispered in Amelie's ear, was very calm:

“These people don’t seem to have any ill intentions; they should be on our side… And look up at that silly uncle; doesn’t he look like a big monkey with that excited expression?”

"Uh……"

Hearing the old lich say this, and even have the mind to criticize Milion, Amelie's tense nerves quickly relaxed, and she curiously looked up.

Sure enough, Milaine must have spotted the people coming too, because she rushed out, shouting things like "darling," "sweetheart," and "my precious baby" as she ran.

It's quite obvious that the Queen of Shangying Kingdom has come in person.

After thinking for a moment, Amelie flapped her wings and took flight, following Milaine slowly and gracefully toward the newcomers.

When the two sides were only a few kilometers apart, Emerald was finally able to see the newcomer's clothes and appearance clearly.

In contrast to the group of ambushers, which consisted mostly of men and one woman, the people who flew in this time were mostly women with voluptuous figures, a total of 9 people, 7 women and 2 men.

The leader, dressed in a purple kimono embroidered with golden cherry blossom patterns and wearing a small, exquisite crown, was none other than Ameritte's soon-to-be aunt, Queen Amamiya Yuki of the Kingdom of Sakura.

She is indeed very beautiful, with a top-notch figure and looks, and an elegant and dignified presence that cannot be concealed even during high-speed flight. She is the kind of queen with the demeanor of an empress.

Behind the queen are six priestesses and two warriors, consisting of six women and two men.

The two warriors were wearing identical armor and equipped with the same weapons, so they should both be guards of the Shangying Kingdom's royal family.

The six shrine maidens were dressed in classic red and white off-the-arms shrine maiden outfits, with white stockings and tabi socks on their feet. Their energy fluctuations were not to be underestimated. The white area on the upper part of their shrine maiden outfits was printed with a magnificent cherry blossom tree.

These witches, Emerald, are familiar to many; they also exist in the original game.

The shrine maidens of the Tengu Shrine are all related to Tengu Yuki by blood.

The reason why the Amamiya family was able to become the royal family of Kamioka Province is because it has the Amamiya Shrine behind it, and the Amamiya Shrine enshrines the most powerful being in Kamioka Province—the Divine Tree.

In the original game, there are a lot of side quests at the Divine Tree and the Heavenly Shrine. If players complete all of these side quests, they can unlock many CGs, and even have Yulia party with a bunch of shrine maidens at the shrine before being hung on a tree for the whole night.

This group of nine people were all experts in the Enlightenment stage, including Queen Tiangong Xue.

"I've missed you so much, Xiaoxue! My dearest Xiaoxue!"

When the two finally met, Milain completely disregarded the fact that there were other people present and rushed up to hug and kiss Tian Gongxue... The way she did it was perhaps more appropriate to describe it as a kiss.

Amelie really wanted to cover her face, feeling ashamed to have such a stupid uncle.

But when she glanced at the six priestesses and two guards opposite her, she found that their expressions remained completely calm, as if they were already used to this kind of thing.

As Emerald looked over, one of the six priestesses floated over and bowed slightly to her.

"You must be the famous Lady Emerald Melson? I am Jun Amamiya, currently one of the high priestesses of Amamiya Shrine. Welcome, Lady."

"Your High Priestess is too kind. Just call me Emerald."

Emery quickly stepped forward and shook hands with Amamiya Jun:

"I've heard my uncle tell me stories about the Kingdom of Sakura since I was little, and I've always longed to visit this beautiful country. This time, I finally have the chance to come and see it for myself... By the way, I hope my uncle hasn't caused you any trouble?"

"...Of course not, Milaine is a good person."

When Jun Amamiya mentioned Milaine, his expression was quite complex for a moment, but he immediately returned to a warm smile.

"He is a man of strong emotions who dares to love and hate. The various goods and technologies he brought have been of great help to our country. He has always been our most honored guest, and soon he will officially become our prince."

Chapter 248 Arrival in the Kingdom of Sakura

Emerald and the High Priestess Amamiya Jun exchanged a few pleasantries, while the silly couple on the other side finally finished their intimate moment.

Amamiya Yuki didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with being hugged and kissed in public by Milaine earlier, and greeted Emery in a frank and generous manner:

"You must be Ellie, right? I've heard Mimi mention you before. Recently, many of your deeds have even spread across the White Sea to Shangying. People say you're the most talented young person of this generation in the Allen Federation~~"

"Oh, not at all, those are just exaggerated rumors... Your Majesty, you are the one who possesses both wisdom and beauty. Under your rule, the Kingdom of Shangying has developed at an astounding pace!"

Emerald quickly exchanged pleasantries with Amamiya Yuki, but inwardly she couldn't help but think—Mimi? What kind of strange nickname is that? It sounds like they're calling a pet.

"Oh dear, I've already started calling you Little Ellie, why are you still calling me Your Majesty?"

At this moment, Amamiya Yuki deliberately pouted, expressing her dissatisfaction with the way Emerald was addressed.

"It's my fault, Aunt."

Amelie immediately changed her tune and obediently admitted her mistake.

Tian Gongxue immediately beamed with joy again, floated directly in front of Amelite, grabbed one of Amelite's hands, and took off one of her jade bracelets to put on Amelite's wrist:

"Alright, alright... my dear niece, my dear niece... here, this is a gift from your aunt."

That jade bracelet was definitely a good thing. Almost as soon as she put it on her wrist, Amelie could feel a cool sensation rushing up her arm and straight to her brain, which significantly increased her thinking speed and made the flow of magic in her body smoother.

In the original game, this jade bracelet would definitely be the highest-level Dark Gold Supreme equipment, with at least two attributes that can increase intelligence and magic power by a percentage, and it would also likely have additional skills.

She truly lives up to her title as Queen of a nation; she is incredibly generous. The nobles and royalty of feudal kingdoms are far more extravagant in this regard than the tycoons of federal countries, because nobles value their reputation more.

"Thank you, aunt~~"

Amelie, her voice even more obedient, tucked the jade bracelet into her sleeve, then pulled a bright gold pocket watch from her own clothes and presented it to Tian Gongxue with both hands:

"This is a small token of my appreciation for your kindness, Auntie. Please accept it."

"Oh?"

Tian Gongxue took the pocket watch with some curiosity and glanced at it, immediately becoming somewhat shocked:

"This...this is? Twelve independent storage spaces?"

"It's just a little toy that can add some fun to your daily life, Auntie."

Amélie smiled slightly and briefly introduced her gift:

"Besides its apparent function as a pocket watch, it is also a portable wardrobe—the 12 hour markers on the pocket watch face correspond to 12 different storage spaces, each of which is enough for you, Aunt, to store a whole set of clothes. The button on the top of the pocket watch has a one-click dressing function, so you can switch between your 12 favorite outfits at any time, or you can set it to change clothes at a fixed time, so you can change into a new outfit every hour."

"This is great! I love it!"

Tian Gongxue's eyes grew brighter as she listened, and in the end, she readily accepted the pocket watch. She immediately grabbed Milain's arm and said in a suggestive voice:

"These 12 outfits, Mimi, you and I can pick them out together when we get back, okay? We can even pick out a few nice ones and set them to automatically change into for you at midnight!"

"cough……"

Amelie was speechless again—was this really something to say in front of a junior?

"Ah, right!"

Only then did Tian Gongxue seem to finally remember the important matter, and she hurriedly grabbed Milain's arm, looking him up and down while asking with concern:

"I received news that the old stubborn head of the Fujiwara family has led almost all the strong members of the conservative faction of the three main families out to intercept and kill you at sea... Mimi, are you alright? Those old stubborns didn't really hurt you, did they?"

"Ambush? What ambush? I haven't encountered any ambush."

Milaine's acting was very natural; she immediately started pretending to be stupid.

Emery looked bewildered beside her.

"Aunt, what did you say? There are bad people trying to harm us? Where are they?"

"Huh? You haven't met them yet? Really?"

Amamiya Yuki was quite surprised, but also relieved:

"It's good that we didn't run into them... When I received the message, those guys had already been gone for several days. I was really worried that something might have happened to you, so I immediately brought people over to help you."

Not long after she felt relieved, Tian Gongxue still felt something was wrong.

“But that’s not right… Mimi, your flight path is always the same, and those old guys always travel in groups of many. I heard there are also outsiders who have been tricked into coming along… No matter how you calculate the time, you should have met them long ago. How could you not have met them?”

"But we haven't encountered any attacks, Aunt."
