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

After the dance, Elise came to Flora's side again, took her hand and said, "Dance with me, you can't refuse."

"what?"

After being pulled to her feet by Elise, Flora finally realized what was happening. Before she could even speak, she felt Miss Elise's hand around her waist, and then she felt herself pressed against her. The feeling made Flora's cheeks flush.

"I... I can't dance."

"It's alright, just follow me." Seeing Flora's nervous expression, Iris's face lit up with pleasure; this was exactly the reaction she wanted to see.

At the same time, all the magical lights in the hotel where the Kingdom Magic Academy was staying suddenly went out.

Volume 1: Chapter 301 The Eye of Order

Elise left the noisy banquet hall and went to the observation deck of the Magic Academy.

Besides her, you can also see some other people here, either not quite comfortable in that kind of place, or just coming out for some fresh air.

Elise quickly found Vivian, who was sitting in a wheelchair, among them.

She slowly walked behind the other person, pushed the wheelchair to the edge of the observation deck, where she could see the night view of Seria, with lights as dazzling as stars.

"Has it started?" Vivian asked softly.

"It's already started."

Elise summoned a butterfly and placed it on Vivian's shoulder. Immediately, several thin, invisible tentacles extended from the butterfly and reached into Vivian's ear.

A moment later, an image appeared in Vivian's right eye.

Those were surveillance cameras that Elise had set up in advance near the hotel, both inside and outside the hotel. These cameras could effectively relay what was happening there back to them.

“This ability is quite convenient,” Vivian said softly.

"When we get back, I'll get you some insect eggs."

"it is good."

Although accessing the screen required the tentacles to penetrate her ears, Vivian didn't care. She valued practicality more. With this device, her people could move more effectively and reduce unnecessary sacrifices.

Just as the two were talking, a violent explosion occurred in the hotel. A clergyman from the Eternal Church was blasted out of the hotel by the huge impact, and then spread his pure white wings in the air, with holy light shining down as if illuminating the entire night sky.

However, under the cover of the barrier, his radiance could not ultimately reach the outside world.

Upon seeing the clergyman, Elise raised an eyebrow: "The Eternal Church has joined in too."

"Is it weird?"

"Well, that prince is unaware of this assassination attempt. The presence of the Eternal Church here means that someone with expertise is directing things from behind the scenes."

This is something that has never happened before; it's a variable.

She had only intended to accompany Vivian to watch a good show, but suddenly she became interested.

What can the intervention of the Eternal Church change?

"Nothing can be changed."

You must know! This is Seria. The Empire will not allow any powerful members of the Eternal Church to enter this place. A seventh-rank cultivator is already at the peak of the Spirit Realm.

Just as Elise had said, the seventh-rank clergyman was soon engulfed by a towering inferno and burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

A hunched figure in black robes glanced at the outside through the gap left by the explosion, then vanished in a flash of fire.

The commotion in the hotel gradually subsided.

If nothing unexpected happens, the prince of the kingdom has already passed away.

"If it were you, what would you do?"

"If it were me, I would try to break the barrier. If the commotion spreads, there might still be a way out. However, this is ultimately the territory of the Empire. Those powerful figures of the Empire might suddenly go blind, and the Empire's guards might suddenly get lost."

Elise wasn't just making a figure of speech; similar things had actually happened to her when she tried them before.

As the protective barrier was removed, people discovered the hotel's strange condition. The once magnificent hotel was now dilapidated, and flames were even seen emerging from it.

The area around the hotel suddenly became lively.

It was at this moment that Vivian also noticed that one of the perspectives had begun to move.

"what are you up to?"

"Go collect something." Elise controlled the insect to pass through wall after wall until she arrived at the prince's room, where the once-spirited prince lay in a pool of blood.

Seeing that the skirt-clad insect (from a three-dimensional perspective) begin collecting X blood, Vivi couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. Before she could speak, Iris explained, "The kingdom's royal family are descendants of the God of Order. Although this has become very rare in this era, there is still some left."

"You know I have the skin of the God of Order on my hands. If I can use His bloodline to drive it, it should have a good effect."

"Then be careful, they'll probably be here soon."

"rest assured."

Just as Elise was confidently stating that there would be no problem, the corpse lying in the pool of blood suddenly twitched and then abruptly opened its left eye.

It was a golden eye, with a cold and majestic air that looked down upon all living beings, and one could vaguely see the holy marks emerging in the pupil.

The pattern of that stigmata was familiar to Iris; it was the stigmata of the God of Order.

The instant that eye looked over, Elizabeth severed her connection with Vivian and the insect without hesitation.

The moment she severed the connection, the insect burst open as if it couldn't withstand the immense pressure. The blood she had just collected didn't spill out; instead, it seemed to be controlled as it rushed into the wound in the corpse's heart.

A short while later, the person who should have died sat up again, glancing coldly at the insect remains that had turned to ashes.

……

Saki "What's going on?"

Vivian had just noticed the unusual movement of the corpse, and even that their eyes met for a fleeting moment. Although it was only a brief instant, she still felt her mind was affected. It was as if that eye was engraved in her mind and could not be erased.

Elise was in much better condition than Vivian, after all, she had died and come back to life countless times, and her mental strength and soul power were superhuman.

“If I’m not mistaken, those are the eyes of the God of Order.” Elise said as she moved in front of Vivian and cupped her cheeks.

A look of pleasure appeared in Elise's eyes, and soon the influence of the Eye of Order on Vivian was stripped away.

Fortunately, this time it was only through the insect's perspective that it made eye contact with that eye, and the break was very decisive; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy to remove the influence of the Eye of Order.

However, on the other hand, why is the Eye of Order on that person?

According to the game's lore, shouldn't the Eye of Order be located in a hidden place?

Interesting. This is another variable she hasn't experienced. It seems the situation on the kingdom's side is quite interesting as well.

"Should we leave Seria first?" Although it was just a glance, Vivian felt that one of her eyes was fixed on Iris.

"There's no need for that. It can't function properly with just one eye."

This is Seria, the capital of the Empire. If that eye dares to dart around, it will be taken by the Imperial Research Institute for research in no time.

Seeing Elise's nonchalant attitude, Vivian knew there shouldn't be any problem, but since it was the eye of a god, she still reminded her, "You should still be careful."

"I know~"

Volume 1: Chapter 302 Preparations Before Departure

When Elise pushed Vivian back to the banquet, the place was no longer as lively as before.

It seems news of the hotel attack has reached here, but the people here haven't left yet.

Noticing Elise, Elira discreetly slipped a worm into her ear and began to communicate with Elise.

"he died?"

"I can't say."

Elira seemed slightly taken aback by Elise's response, but Elise quickly explained the whole story.

After listening to Elise's explanation, Elira frowned as well: "You mean, the Eye of Order is on His Highness the Prince?"

"Yes, now that you've been reborn as a citizen of the kingdom, do you have any opinions you'd like to express?"

"No, I am not familiar with His Highness. I can only investigate the specifics after I return to the kingdom."

"Be careful, or you might get targeted by the Eye of Order."

"Ah."

After a brief exchange, the leader from the kingdom led the students from the Kingdom's Magic Academy away first, followed by students from other academies.

Elise had no interest in staying there and quickly teleported back to the teleportation hall near the manor.

When Elise and her party emerged from the teleportation hall, the streets were quiet, with occasional small squads of the Magic Legion patrolling the area.

Elise and her companions were questioned about their identities, but after proving their identities, the three were quickly released and told not to wander around tonight and to go home as soon as possible.

As soon as they returned to the manor, the maid approached Elise and whispered, "Miss, do you know what happened tonight?"

"Hmm, you didn't wander off tonight, did you?"

"No, I just used my shadow to check the situation on the outside." Of course, the little maid wouldn't risk her life; her mistress had taught her this many times.

"Okay, it's alright, go back and rest."

"I still need to help Miss take a bath." The maid clearly didn't want to leave just like that.

"You've become much bolder lately."

"Yes, Miss told me to be bolder." The little maid looked at Elise nervously, completely losing her earlier boldness.

Elise patted the little maid's hair and said, "Alright, I'm about to take a bath, you should go and get ready."

"Yes!"

The little maid happily prepared her mistress for her bath, but when she was ready, she found that her mistress wasn't the only one in the bath; the red-haired, violent woman and Flora had also come along.

Sensing the maid's gaze, Flora whispered, "Misha, I was forcibly dragged here by Miss Iris."

"Yes, I know." The little maid had a good relationship with Flora, so she didn't pay much attention to it. However, she had always been a little annoyed by that red-haired, violent, and scheming woman.

"I don't think I did anything, did I?" Nora said, scratching her head.

"Humph."

The maid pouted. Although they were now quite familiar with each other, Misha felt that her murderous intent towards her had not lessened. However, it was no longer like before, when she would attack at the slightest disagreement.

"Misha, you should shower too."

"I...I don't need it." The little maid, who always adhered to the maid's code, subconsciously refused after hearing her mistress's words.

"I'm a prostitute, so if I say we'll get together, we'll get together."

"Oh."

The little maid responded softly, then took off her clothes and stepped into the bath, a sweet smile spreading across her lovely face.

Misses are definitely the best.

……

The next day, news of the assassination of the kingdom's prince spread throughout the entire Seria.

However, the report also clearly stated that although His Highness the Prince was assassinated, he was only injured and did not die.

Elise received the news early in the morning, and she might have been very surprised if she hadn't witnessed the other person's resurrection.

It is said that the bodies of Eternal Church clergy were found at the scene of His Highness's assassination.

According to the message delivered by the Dream Walker, the Holy Kingdom's special envoy is currently extremely busy with this matter.

Vivian also arrived at Elise's manor early in the morning, after all, neither of them had expected such a change to occur.

"Do you think the Holy Kingdom will go to war with the Empire and the Kingdom?" Elena asked curiously.

“No,” Elise and Vivian said in unison.

(7) The Japanese three-ordered army. (4) (The text appears to be a fragmented collection of characters and symbols, possibly from different sources. A direct translation is not possible without further context.)

Seeing the two working in perfect harmony, Elena raised an eyebrow: "How so?"

"With the existence of an eternal god, it is impossible for the empire and kingdom to start a war with the Holy Kingdom at this time."

The Eternal God is like the Sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of both countries. The triggering incident was precisely to remove this sword from their heads. Although there will be huge sacrifices, in the eyes of the rulers of both countries, it is all worth it.

"The delegation from the Holy Kingdom and the Kingdom left Seria early this morning," Lumia said softly.

"After all, a fight is about to break out. Staying here is practically suicide. But I think the situation on the kingdom's side will be quite interesting." Since the damned man hadn't died, Elise really wanted to see what kind of expressions those people would have.
