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

Seeing Theresa still standing there, Elise blinked, then recalled the sad things from before her rebirth.

Soon her eyes began to fill with a faint sadness, accompanied by a misty haze, as if tears might fall at any moment.

Seeing this, Theresa panicked. She quickly moved closer to Iris and whispered, "Don't cry."

Seeing Theresa's nervous expression, Elise couldn't help but laugh a little embarrassedly. She coughed twice and then whispered, "I, I'm fine."

Elise's reaction was actually within Theresa's expectations. She had already realized that Elise was acting, but for some reason, when she saw that Elise seemed about to shed tears, she felt a pang in her heart.

She had originally wanted to ask about the ring, but after hesitating for a moment, she gave up.

"Is there anything else? If you have any questions, just ask."

"No, no more."

Theresa shook her head and then walked into the city first.

Seeing how decisively the other party left, Elise quickened her pace to catch up. The cursed people along the way showed respect and gratitude when they saw the two of them.

After returning home with Theresa, Elise seemed to remember something, then took out a bag of insect eggs and handed it to her, saying, "These are special insect eggs. If your people really can't hold on any longer, you can let them use these eggs."

"Is this really alright?"

"Using the insect eggs will transform you into an insect-human, but I reckon you'll be able to live a little longer. Anyway, I've given you the stuff; whether you use it or not is up to you."

Theresa didn't hesitate much before taking the bag of insect eggs and then went to tell someone what to do.

When she returned, she found Elise already asleep in bed.

She carefully slowed her movements, then walked to the bedside and sat down. Theresa had only wanted to see Elise's sleeping face, but as she looked, she inadvertently lost track of time.

When she came to her senses, she realized that more than an hour had passed.

She hadn't expected to stare at someone for so long. Just as she was about to get up and leave, Elise's voice suddenly rang out: "You've been staring at me for so long, aren't you going to say anything?"

"Are you...you're not asleep?"

"She's asleep, but people like us can still sense what's happening around us even when we're asleep." Elise opened her eyes and looked at the somewhat embarrassed Theresa with a smile.

"I was just thinking about something."

"I don't care, I'm going to see it again." Elise said as she moved closer to Theresa and stared intently at her face.

Theresa was completely helpless in the face of Elise's shameless behavior.

……

During Elise's journey through the Cursed Fertile Lands, the Empire and the Kingdom also went to war.

Sally cautiously hid in a corner of the battlefield, watching the flashing magical light in the distance—the clash between the Empire's magic forces and the Kingdom's magic legions.

Various magical attacks emerged one after another, appearing dazzling yet deadly.

In a bombardment of this magnitude, if one side fails to withstand the attack, widespread damage will occur.

Above the border of the empire, the Imperial Magic Academy floats in the air. Every time someone dies, an invisible phantom will surge into a giant magical artifact below the academy.

In the center of the kingdom's position, a crimson altar stood where a scarlet battle banner shimmered with an eerie red light.

Sally observed for only a short while before noticing a fireball, resembling a meteorite, falling from the sky and crashing towards her location.

She twitched the corner of her mouth, then activated the teleportation without hesitation.

She was just passing by to check on the war situation, and once she was discovered, there was no need for her to stay any longer.

As the fireball roared, a violent explosion erupted, creating a huge crater where Sally had been standing.

"How is the war going?" Elena asked softly, looking at Sally who had been teleported back.

"Although it looks intense, it's still just in the exploratory stage."

"It seems that, just as Elise said, this war is likely to last a long time." Whenever Elise was mentioned, the image of her would involuntarily appear in Elena's mind.

Even though she had only been gone for a few days, she found that she had missed her countless times.

Elena, of course, wouldn't say such a thing, but she still sighed, "I wonder how Elise is doing now?"

"Don't worry, Elise must be confident that she'll go in person."

“Okay.” Elena knew that Elise never did anything without being sure of success. After calming herself down, she continued to say to Sally, “Let’s go then. After you drop me off, you should go back quickly and stay away from the battlefield.”

Although Sally possesses spatial powers that allow her to teleport away, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. Who knows if one side will suddenly unleash a terrifying attack? If she teleports there and happens to fall into the attack range, sometimes she might not even have time to react.

"Well, speaking of which, I always feel that this war is a bit strange, but I can't quite put my finger on what's strange about it."

"Wait until she comes back, then you can ask her."

“That’s true.” Sally nodded, then immediately activated a long-distance teleportation, disappearing from the spot with Elena.

Before Elise went to the Cursed Fertile Land, she left a lot of information for everyone, such as what things were in what places, and even what dangers might be there. Now that Elise is not here, Elena and the others will certainly not let go of this opportunity to improve themselves, and they have begun to search everywhere according to the information Elise gave them.

Sally, who is a tool character with long-distance teleportation abilities, has been running back and forth most of the past few days.

Although she was indeed a tool, after doing this many times, her ability to control space improved considerably. Moreover, Elise had given her information about spatial magic, so after delivering Elena to her destination, she prepared to search for new spatial magic.

Volume 1: Chapter 327 Kang Kang Yours

"Crawling is prohibited here."

As the wolf-like cursed creature charged towards her, the Holy Mark of Order shone brightly on Elise's chest.

As the law appeared, the wolf-like creature that had been charging towards them instantly pounced on them, only to be devoured whole by an invisible maw.

Even monsters formed from curses are still considered food to the Gluttonous King.

After dealing with the cursed creature, Elise looked around and then said to Theresa, "I estimate we'll be able to leave the Cursed Fertile Land in about half a day."

Hearing Elise's words, Theresa nodded gently. She had lived here for hundreds of years, and although she hadn't returned for a long time, she hadn't forgotten what was happening here.

"Although it's getting late, let's speed things up so we can get out of here soon and rest later."

Although these cursed creatures posed little threat to Elise and Theresa, Elise was reluctant to spend the night in such a desolate place, and she hadn't showered for several days, which was unbearable for someone with a slight obsession with cleanliness.

Theresa had no objection to Elise's suggestion, and the two quickened their pace to continue walking forward.

Half a day isn't a long time. As the colors around them gradually became more vibrant, Elise realized that they were about to leave the Cursed Fertile Land.

When the two finally arrived at a verdant plain, Elise and Theresa exchanged a glance and breathed a sigh of relief.

The cursed power surrounding the two had disappeared, meaning they had left the cursed fertile land.

Although it only took Elise less than a week to cross the Cursed Fertile Land, which seems quite simple, that was only because Elise had the protection of the World Tree. Otherwise, even with Theresa leading the way, it wouldn't be so easy for an ordinary person to cross the Cursed Fertile Land.

"Is this the place you said you grew peaches?"

"What kind of place grows peaches?" Elise twitched the corner of her mouth, then explained what a paradise on earth meant in another way.

This place is surrounded by three forbidden zones, so even if someone knows about it, they cannot enter. If you were to build a city or even a country in the game, this would be one of the best locations.

The area is rich in everything and has no external enemies, so it can develop in peace.

The only drawback is that in the later stages, the surrounding restricted areas will change, and this place, surrounded by the three major restricted areas, will become a target for everyone.

However, as long as we focus on development, when that time comes, even if something goes wrong in the three restricted areas, it won't be a problem.

She had come to this place to hide when she was going through a near-death experience, thinking that being surrounded by the three forbidden zones would allow her to live a peaceful life.

Who knew that not long after arriving here, a protagonist accidentally crossed the forbidden zone and discovered her by chance. What's more, that protagonist was someone she had a grudge against.

Then she sent it.

Recalling the past, Elise sighed with a touch of melancholy.

It was already late at night, the night sky was dotted with stars, and the moonlight was bright.

Elise thought for a moment, then said, "I remember there's a river nearby. Let's go camping by the river."

"it is good."

Although this was Theresa's first time here, she had memories of the place. She remembered a certain place, a small wooden house, where she had lived for a period of time.

According to her own recollections, Ling had lived here with Elise for a period of time.

But that wooden house shouldn't exist here, right?

Just as Theresa was lost in her memories, Elise led her to the riverbank.

"I'm leaving the camping to you, I'm going to take a shower~"

Hearing Elise's voice, Theresa came back to her senses. She subconsciously looked at Elise, only to find that Elise's clothes had disappeared at some point.

Although it was night, the moonlight was beautiful tonight, and she could even clearly see Elise's beautiful figure and flawless skin.

Even though they were all girls, for some reason, Teresa felt a strange impulse after seeing this scene.

She took a deep breath, tried to look away, and then took out her camping gear from her spatial ring.

As for accommodation, she didn't bother to prepare anything, because with Elise there, Elise could easily use the power of the earth to build a stone house, which would be much safer than a tent.

Theresa quickly set up the camping table and chairs, lit a campfire, and then went to the riverbank. She said to Iris, "I'll go see if there are any edible magical beasts around."

"No need, I've already sent the bugs away. You haven't showered for days, come down now~"

"I, I'll wash later."

"No, you've seen my body, so I want to see yours too."

Elise reached out her hand and pulled Theresa, who was completely unprepared, into the river.

The slightly chilly water made Theresa shiver involuntarily. Then she saw Elise standing in front of her, smiling and saying, "I don't need to help you take off your clothes, do I?"

"No, no need!"

Theresa glanced at the other person with a hint of helplessness, then her changing ring flashed, and her clothes disappeared.

It has to be said that taking a shower after a few days felt really good, but while she was taking a shower, Elise next to her started splashing water on her.

Theresa wiped the water off her face, then said irritably, "Are you a child?"

While she was complaining, she didn't forget to retaliate, splashing a spray of water at Elise.

"You're the one who should be talking to me!"

"That's because you started it first."

For a moment, the place was filled with the sounds of girls playing.

The two played around for a while before returning to the shore. By then, there was a dead mushroom pig on the edge of the camp. This was the dinner, or rather, a midnight snack, that Elise had caught from the insects she had released.

Theresa originally wanted to grill the meat herself, but Elise stopped her.

Theresa has very low requirements for food. After all, she is immortal. As long as she can fill her stomach, she doesn't care about the taste.

Therefore, the food she makes can only be described as having a very poor taste.

To avoid compromising herself, Elise had no choice but to do it herself.

Volume 1: Chapter 328 Familiar Place

After leaving the Cursed Fertile Land, Elise slept in late for the first time in a long time, not leaving the makeshift stone house until noon.

Theresa had gotten up very early and was now sitting by the river fishing. Although the food she made was not very tasty, her ability to find food was quite good.

Moreover, there are indeed quite a few fish in this river; I caught a whole bucketful in just one morning.

Hearing footsteps, Theresa turned around and glanced at Iris, who was walking towards her.

Elise, who had just gotten up, was still wearing a thin nightgown. As the breeze blew, the loose nightgown outlined Elise's beautiful figure.

Looking at the fish in the bucket, a smile flashed in Elise's eyes: "Not bad, much better than some fishing master."

Theresa gave Elise a strange look, as if wondering who this "fishing master" was.

Iris didn't explain, but simply took out a chair and sat down next to Theresa, then carefully washed up.

After tidying herself up, Elise leisurely closed her eyes and began to use the authority of the Earth Goddess to contact her followers.

Because the insects in the Cursed Spirit Curse Fertile Land forum have not yet been established, the current Elise cannot use the insect network and can only contact believers through the authority of the Earth Goddess.

Meanwhile, at Vivian's mansion.

Upon sensing Elise's call, a fanatical follower of the Earth Goddess went directly to Vivian and began to set up a special ritual.

As the ritual setup was completed, the fanatics began to pray devoutly.

A moment later, the ritual array emitted a faint light, and Elise's phantom suddenly appeared.

Upon seeing the phantom of Elise, the fanatics' eyes instantly blazed with barely suppressed fervor, and they murmured praises to the earth goddess Elise.
