The woman seemed to be merely waving her longsword lightly, but in reality, Linglan was using her authority as the administrator of this virtual world to kick Yulia out directly... This is roughly the principle of the Dao Ancestor's Annihilation Sword, using a portion of the Heavenly Dao's authority to directly delete the target from this world.

In countless previous challenges, Yulia was always deleted from the virtual world by Suzuran without any resistance, waking up in the real world completely bewildered.

After several months of training to resist the rules, Yulia is now significantly different from how she was at the beginning.

As Lily of the Valley issued the deletion command, Yulia did not disappear immediately. Instead, she transformed into a mosaic of clipping and frame drops in mid-air and continued to rush towards the woman on the mountaintop.

At the same time, numerous error warnings popped up on Suzuran's control panel, indicating that a bug had occurred in the operation of the virtual world.

However, this was clearly not the first time such a thing had happened. After all, Yulia had been training here almost every day for the past few months, and she had long since developed a resistance to the rules.

Linglan immediately deployed more computing power to forcibly fix the bug, and finally succeeded in completely deleting the mosaic before it reached the woman on the mountaintop.

Bang!

The moment the mosaic was completely removed, the virtual pod where Yulia was lying automatically popped open. Yulia, yawning and still sweating, sat up inside, somewhat dejected.

"So it still doesn't work? It's been so long, and I can't even launch a single effective attack before disappearing? How am I supposed to protect Emerald like this..."

"Actually, your growth rate is already very fast, Lady Julia."

Lily of the Valley's voice remained flat, but the cold, hard data she presented was, ironically, the best comfort to Yulia:

"Your rule resistance is very special, and even I cannot fully analyze it. Therefore, the virtual world can only reproduce the effects of the rule resistance on the parts of your body. Even so, I still used more than 92% of the computing power and performance to complete the suppression... According to this calculation, Lady Yulia, you have actually achieved your initial training goal."

"You mean I can help Emerald defeat that formidable enemy?"

Yulia immediately became excited and couldn't wait to ask.

However, Lily of the Valley poured cold water on her enthusiasm:

"No, what I mean is, your rule resistance is already enough to defend against this kind of attack... When the young lady was facing that powerful enemy, you were already a qualified meat shield."

Chapter 358 Tyrant Experience Card

"Just a competent meat shield..."

Yulia's face immediately fell, and she draped her arms dejectedly over the edge of the simulator.

Years of living and working with Emerald have greatly changed Julia's thinking compared to the original game.

"You can't protect anyone just by guarding them! The best way to protect someone is to nip any potential danger in the bud!"

After a brief moment of frustration, Yulia quickly cheered up again, pumping her fist:

"I can't just be a meat shield; I also need to become a sharp blade to slay powerful enemies! Let's go again!"

After saying that, Yulia tried to close the lid of the simulation pod to continue training, but the lid was blocked by an invisible force and she couldn't close it.

"You should rest now, baby."

Emerald came over, took Julia's clenched little fist, kneaded it a few times like dough, and then held it in her arms:

"The more realistic the virtual world is, the greater the mental burden it places on you... Honey, look at you, you're almost getting dark circles under your eyes. Shall we call it a day for today's training?"

"Huh? Emery, you're back?"

Yulia blinked, stunned for a couple of seconds before reacting, then pounced on Amelie like a golden retriever who hadn't seen its owner in a long time, knocking her to the ground and rubbing against her while sniffing her scent:

"You're finally back! I missed you so much!"

"I miss you so much, baby... gulp!"

Emerald was stroking Julia's golden ponytail, about to coax her with sweet words, when she suddenly felt a numbness in her stomach. Julia had taken the opportunity to give her a light punch, and the strong mental shock almost made her stick out her tongue.

Looking up, I saw that Julia was now sitting on Emerald, her lips pouting, looking very unhappy.

"I don't believe your nonsense... You miss me? You smell like that wicked woman, your junior sister, everywhere. You and she have been having a blast these days, haven't you? Humph, don't think a bath can wash away the evidence of your womanizing. My nose is very sharp!"

"So you were smelling this just now..."

Emery simply smiled, showing no sign of panic.

She caught the fist that was still restless against her lower abdomen and gently kissed it twice:

"Baby, you've misunderstood me... I have been with my junior sister these days, but I haven't done anything to betray you. I've just been healing her through dual cultivation... She was seriously injured in the previous war while helping me, so I have to take responsibility, right? Do you want me to be an irresponsible scumbag?"

"It's like you think taking responsibility makes you less of a bad woman..."

Yulia pouted, her expression softening considerably, but she was still clearly jealous:

"Really? You're not lying to me?"

"of course not."

Emery said without changing her expression:

“When my junior sister was injured by Sisi’s mother, tens of thousands of federal soldiers witnessed it. They couldn’t all be lying, could they? If you don’t believe me, darling, you can ask them anytime.”

"……snort."

Julia then softened again, nestled against Emerald, pouted, and said in a voice that could melt anyone's heart:

"I want a kiss, right now~~"

"Okay, okay, I'll give you a kiss, baby..."

Emery naturally wouldn't refuse, and immediately engaged in a fierce verbal duel with Julia.

After a fierce exchange, both sides temporarily ceased their attacks, taking it as halftime.

"Come on, baby, try this."

Emerald let Julia rest her head on her smooth black stockings, played with Julia's golden ponytail with one hand, and fed Julia a fruit to her mouth with the other:

"This is one of the rarest specialties of the Elven race. It is never sold to outsiders, and even if you have money, it is very difficult to buy it in the Federation."

"Mmm...so sweet, I love it."

Yulia ate the fruit in one bite, a happy smile on her face.

Then, her eyes darted around, and before Emery could retract her hand from feeding her fruit, she quickly sucked on two of Emery's fingers, chuckling as she did so.

"Emerite, your hands are so sweet, I like them even more."

"But actually, it's still you who's sweeter, darling~~"

Amelie pinched Julia's cheek and went to get some more fruit:

"Because my fingers still have your scent on them."

"Hmph, isn't that because you're too mean? You just bully me..."

Yulia pouted, but her mouth was quickly filled with new fruit, which she then began to eat noisily.

The two of them playfully teased and cuddled for a while before Julia suddenly took a deep breath, reluctantly lifting her head from Amelie's lap, and gazing intently into Amelie's heterochromatic golden-blue eyes with her emerald gaze:

"About how much time do you have? How confident are you?"

"..."

Amelie swallowed back the words she was about to use to tease Julia.

She sighed, not avoiding Julia's gaze, and thought for a moment before saying:

"It should be soon, definitely no later than this year... As for the chances of success, my preparations are almost complete. As long as the plan goes smoothly, the odds of winning are quite high."

...What if the plan doesn't go smoothly?

Amelie didn't say anything.

Julia didn't ask. She just suddenly turned around and hugged Emerald tightly, her resolve even stronger.

As night fell, Yulia did not rest, but instead began her training once again to improve her strength.

She wasn't good at strategizing or planning; her only skill was fighting, and she was well aware of this. Therefore, she needed to seize every opportunity to become as strong as possible.

Amelie didn't stop her, because she had already used holy magic to help Julia recover her energy while she was playing with her. The rare fruits produced by the elves also had the effect of accelerating energy recovery, and they were originally the favorite food of the elven nobles when they partied all night.

Seeing that Yulia had once again entered the virtual world to challenge the world administrator Suzuran, Emerald did not disturb her any further and quietly left the underground facility.

She originally wanted to go home to rest and sort out her thoughts, but she found that her place had been turned into a deep pit—her small villa, along with the basement, had been dug out, and Marcy must have moved it to a new place.

"...Sisi made quite a fuss."

Amelie glanced at the location of Julia Square in the center of Locke City. About 300 meters above the ground, the general outline of a building suspended in the air under the effect of permanent magic could already be seen. Currently, many mages and sorcerers were busy with construction.

Clearly, Marcy probably wanted to model Emerald's new home after the Merson Sky Manor in Sphingard, placing it in the sky directly above the center of Locke City, which would barely match Emerald's current strength and status in the Federation.

While aerial structures are impressive, they are also significantly more time-consuming and costly to build than ground-based structures. Even with Marcy mobilizing a large workforce to construct a new residence for Emerald, it's impossible to complete it today.

“I’ve already comforted Yulia, and Sisi is engrossed in her work… Well, I’ll stay at my senior’s place tonight.”

Emerald stood there, tilted her head, thought for a moment, then turned and strode towards the Blue Star Dance Troupe with her long, black-stockinged legs.

Ah~~~~~

As soon as Amelie pushed open the door of the Blue Star Dance Troupe, she heard a melodious and pleasant singing voice coming from the direction of the stage; it was Sulina's voice.

But the Blue Star Dance Troupe didn't perform tonight, and all of Su Lina's girlfriends were gone; they must have gone back to their dorms to rest. Only Su Lina was still there.

"...As expected, success only comes to those who are talented, hardworking, and able to seize opportunities."

Following the singing, Emerald quickly found Sulina, who was still practicing singing and dancing alone on stage late at night. She was so focused that she didn't even notice Emerald's arrival.

Given Sulina's current status, she is already perfect and doesn't need to work so hard. As long as she doesn't fall out of favor with Emery, she will always be one of the most powerful women in the Allen Federation as Emery's assistant.

But Su Lina did not give up her dedication to singing and dancing practice. No matter how busy she was with work, she would rather not rest and would set aside fixed time to practice her voice and dance moves. She would also record any new song and dance inspiration that flashed through her mind.

"I think that even without me, you will eventually become the Federation's new generation of song and dance queen."

After Sulina finished rehearsing a song and dance, Emery smiled and walked to the front of the stage, clapping as she went.

"No matter when you look at it, your singing and dancing are always so pleasing to the eye. If there is anyone in this world who can be made a god through singing and dancing, it must be you, senior."

"Even the young lady is still very good at charming women, huh?"

Sulina spun around on stage and naturally landed on Amelie's lap, hooking her arms around Amelie's neck and whispering in her ear:

"I wonder if the young lady's junior sister in the Eastern country has also been bewitched by her?"

"...Why are you so concerned about her, even my senior?"

Amelie was somewhat speechless, but she still reached out to put her arm around Sulina's soft waist.

"Don't be in such a hurry, young lady!"

Unexpectedly, Sulina nimbly dodged the attack, her body lightly sliding off Emerald and back onto the stage.

"It seems that the young lady has always had a special fondness for Eastern culture, which is why that Eastern beauty could fascinate her so much, right?"

...Could it be that I really did spend a little too long cultivating with my junior sister this time, making everyone around me jealous?

While thinking this to herself, Amelie's expression remained unchanged; she simply smiled and said:

"What? Are you jealous, senior?"

"How could I dare to be jealous? After all, I've long been your property, haven't I?"

Su Lina displayed her stage talent, deliberately adopting a weak and pitiful posture, while her eyes were alluringly watery:

"So, to avoid falling out of favor, of course they have to cater to your tastes... I've been researching Eastern-style vocal music and dance lately. Would you like to enjoy some, Miss? It's not specially prepared for you, though."

"Senior, how come you've also learned to be tsundere... But I have to say, with your figure and temperament, you're quite suitable for playing a cold beauty when you say tsundere lines, it's actually quite cute."

Emery laughed heartily twice, then leaned back in her chair, resting her chin on her armrest, her two legs encased in black stockings draped over each other.

"Then come on, let me admire your beauty again, senior... your charm that blooms only for me."

Snapped.

Sulina didn't say anything more, but simply snapped her fingers, and magic covered the stage.

It is a stage magic passed down through generations of the Bolin family, a kind of area illusion that can be mistaken for reality when used in conjunction with song and dance.

Of course, this illusion is completely ineffective against Emerald now; the difference in magical power is too great, and she is directly immune to it.

However, Emerald deliberately controlled her magic and did not resist, allowing herself to be pulled into the illusion by Surina.

Immediately, Emerald found that her surroundings had changed, from a dance troupe to the royal palace of an Eastern kingdom, and the chair she was sitting on had become a golden dragon throne, looking down on the beauties performing below the stage.

...Is this meant to let me experience what it's like to be a tyrannical ruler?

Emerald immediately understood the game designed by Sulina, became very interested, and looked forward to Sulina's performance.

It has to be said that after completely pledging her loyalty to Emerald, Sulina is the woman who knows how to please Emerald the most, always coming up with interesting tricks. No wonder she is so successful.
