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

Then, the black cat returned to Elise's arms and looked no different from an ordinary cat.

Although he was no longer bound by the Divine Realm of Order, Harrison didn't react immediately. By the time he came to his senses, Elena had already hurled the Lightning Spear at him.

Unable to defend or dodge in time, Harrison could only use his elemental transformation ability to take the blow that was originally destined to kill him.

Volume 1: Chapter 510 You're Awake

As Harrison's elemental transformation ended, his face became noticeably paler, and red arcs of electricity occasionally flickered across his body.

The appearance of the black cat finally made Harrison realize that these people were after the Eye of Order.

I should have hidden it well, so why did these people know that the Eye of Order was in my hands?!

"You've already taken what you wanted. How about sparing my life? Everything in my mage tower is a token of my gratitude." Harrison, feeling his condition was very poor, tried to make a final stand.

However, Elena's answer was very direct: "Even if you die, aren't the things inside the mage tower mine too?"

Before she could finish speaking, Elena launched another surprise attack. Her dragon form wasn't lasting long for her at the moment, and she didn't have time to listen to the other party's nonsense.

It must be said that Harrison, as an excellent magician, impressed Elena with his use of various spells, but facing Elena, who completely countered him, defeat was only a matter of time.

What frustrated Harrison even more was that the silver-haired girl could quickly imitate his combination magic as soon as he cast it once, which made him feel inexplicably defeated.

The main reason is Harrison's combination magic. Elise had taught it to Elena in her previous life, and now that Elena has awakened many memories of her past life, she feels a strange sense of déjà vu when she sees the magic Harrison releases.

After trying it, I found that I released it naturally.

As his injuries worsened, Harrison gritted his teeth and took out a full-length mirror from his spatial ring.

At that moment, Elise coughed twice, and then the mirror disappeared from Harrison's hand.

On the viewing platform not far away, Sally looked at the mirror she had stolen using spatial magic and asked curiously, "What's the use of this mirror?"

"Users can imprint their peak self onto this mirror in advance, and in critical moments, they can exchange their current state with their reflection in the mirror. It is a very troublesome relic."

"Is it so useful?"

"Yes, after using it three times or more, the image of you in the mirror will appear and replace your current self."

Upon hearing Elise's words, Sally involuntarily shuddered, then handed the mirror directly to Elise.

Elise didn't stand on ceremony and put it directly into her spatial ring. Although the side effects of this thing were quite terrible, as long as the number of times it was used was controlled, it was a very practical life-saving relic.

Sally was able to steal this item from Harrison mainly because Elise and the others were just watching the show. Even when Elena was at a disadvantage, they didn't intervene. In addition, the intensity of the battle lowered his guard, which allowed Sally to succeed.

Although he no longer has the mirror that can restore his original state, Harrison still has many trump cards up his sleeve.

He actually had quite a few teleportation items that he could use to escape, but these items were completely useless against a space-type mage.

It is estimated that the moment the spatial rift is opened, it will be forcibly closed by the other party. Even if one manages to teleport away, it will likely be greatly disrupted.

It's one thing that the location of the teleportation is uncontrollable, but the problem is that there's a high probability of being caught in spatial turbulence.

But at this point, it seems he has no other choice.

Thinking of this, Harrison also took out an ancient magic scroll from his spatial ring.

Seeing that the other party had taken out something again, Sally tried to use the same trick again, but Harrison, who had been tricked once before, was on guard, and Sally's theft failed.

Although she failed, Sally still sensed the spatial power emanating from the scroll.

If the other party dares to use that magic scroll, she can ensure their utter demise.

As the scroll was activated, Harrison's figure began to blur.

However, before Sally could make a move, Elena had already taken out and activated the spatial confinement device.

Hedgehog herself possessed spatial magic items, which she had already given to Elise. However, she was well aware of the impact such items would have on the battle, so she had her sister specially make her a spatial confinement device.

4. Seeing this, Sally smirked and said, "Did you tell her beforehand that the other party would run away?"

“No, Elena prepared this herself.” Elise smiled. She knew that Elena was the kind of person who liked to consider everything, so she didn’t say anything to her. Anyway, even if Harrison was a seventh-tier, he could never be a match for Elena.

As the spatial confinement device was activated, Harrison's illusory form solidified once more. His face was grim. Although he had expected this to happen, the feeling of being pulled out of teleportation was still quite unpleasant.

Elena estimated the remaining time in her dragon form, then silently took out her demon horn and plunged it into her heart without hesitation. A pair of jet-black wings unfurled from behind her, and an ominous black halo appeared above her head.

Harrison gripped his staff tightly. He hadn't expected that his opponent hadn't even used his full strength when they fought before, especially considering that his opponent was only at the sixth rank!

What a monster!

This was the thought that came to Harrison's mind after seeing Elena in her dual forms.

After entering her dual form, Elena's attacks became even more ferocious, and along with her attacks, various curses would fall on Harrison.

If Harrison were in his prime, these curses wouldn't have been a problem, but now they're making his already weakened body even worse.

After only a few rounds of fighting, one of his arms was torn off by his opponent.

“If you had used your full strength just now, the battle should have been over by now, right?” Harrison looked at Elena listlessly.

"I also wanted to finish sooner, but Elise said she wanted to go fishing, so I stayed a little longer with you."

Harrison was a smart man and quickly figured out what kind of fish the other party was trying to catch. He twitched the corners of his mouth, wanting to say something, but found that his body had already been pierced by the flying swords surrounding him.

Looking at Harrison lying on the ground, Elena didn't approach him. Instead, she controlled her flying sword to strike a few more times from a distance before looking at Elise in the distance: "It seems the fish didn't take the bait."

"There's nothing we can do, fish these days are just too smart."

It was after Harrison's death that a stone coffin inside Harrison's mage tower was suddenly pushed open, and Harrison sat up from inside, his face pale.

Fortunately, he was always afraid of death and had this backup plan.

Just as he was thinking about packing his things and running away, a somewhat impatient voice suddenly rang out: "You're awake."

I'm catching up on the previous two chapters, so it's a bit late.

Volume 1: Chapter 511 Miss Sally, Entrusted with an Important Task

"I felt that he should have had a last-ditch effort, but I didn't expect him to die like this."

Elena controlled her flying sword, dragging the corpse to Elise's side, and then simply threw the corpse there.

Elise snapped her fingers, and several insects quickly crawled out of the ground and began to help her collect her spoils. She smiled and said to Elena, "Because he still wants to live, he won't fight you to the death."

Elena raised an eyebrow. Judging from Elise's words, was Harrison not dead?

She looked at the body on the ground; it was definitely Harrison's body.

"It's just an empty shell. His soul has returned to the mage tower. If nothing unexpected happens, he should have woken up by now."

"Since you've already said that, you must have already had people stake out the place beforehand, right?"

"How clever~"

While the two were talking, the insects that Elise had summoned had already finished cleaning up the spoils.

It's important to know that Harrison is the main character. Even though he used up a lot of resources when dealing with Elena, his spatial ring is still very rich.

However, Elise only glanced at it before handing the spatial ring to Elena: "The contents inside should be of considerable use to you."

Elena initially wanted to say that she didn't need to give it to her, but considering that she needed to improve her strength, she hesitated for a moment and then accepted it.

"No one will know about Harrison's death for the time being. When you get back, you can go to his mage tower and take over his research."

"Mmm," Elena responded softly.

The invisible maw opened and devoured Harrison's corpse completely. Then, Elise used the power of the earth to restore the cratered plain to its original state.

After confirming that there were no problems, Elise snapped her fingers, and Sally led her people back to Elira's house.

About half an hour after Elise and the others returned to their lodgings, Elira finally returned to her own home.

She wasn't surprised to see that Elise and the others had returned, since Harrison wouldn't have been able to be resurrected in the mage tower if Elise hadn't resolved the issue.

She threw Harrison's body out directly, and from his ferocious expression, it was clear that Harrison seemed to have died with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

After all, resurrection was his biggest backup plan, and there was no way anyone would know about it.

However, after resurrecting from the mage tower, he was immediately ambushed at his resurrection point.

"How did he do that?" Elena asked curiously, looking at Harrison's body.

"It can only be done through a special ancient relic. However, resurrection comes at a price. For example, his strength will drop from the seventh rank to the sixth rank after resurrection. If he dies again, he will drop from the sixth rank to the fifth rank, and so on."

"So, you contacted him to kill five times?" Elena looked at Elira.

"That's right, but if we don't know his respawn point, it will be very troublesome to deal with."

Having been reborn hundreds of times, Elira was well aware of Harrison's troublesome nature. However, precisely because of her numerous rebirths, she naturally learned about his secrets over her long life.

Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't know, because Elise definitely does.

When she learned that Elise was planning to attack Harrison, she thought of reminding Elise, but before she could even speak, Elise told her to find an opportunity to guard the enemy's respawn point.

"By the way, you should have obtained the Eye of Order by now, right?"

“Yes, it’s here.” Elise picked up the black cat from her arms and lifted it up.

The black cat, which had just been sleeping, was suddenly lifted up and meowed in confusion, but because it was Elise, it did not struggle.

Upon seeing the black cat, Elira raised an eyebrow. She hadn't expected that Elise would keep the cat by her side. Wasn't she afraid that something might go wrong?

As if sensing Elira's thoughts, Elise chuckled softly, then stroked the black cat: "Little Black is so cute, it certainly won't hurt me, right?"

"Meow~" As if in response to Elise's answer, the black cat gently rubbed against her.

Although Elira was still somewhat wary of the black cat, since Iris had already said so, she couldn't say anything more.

"Xiao Hei, urge Ronald to find that leg as soon as possible. As for the remaining arm, I'll find a way to get it back."

"Meow~" Little Black rubbed against Elise's arms obediently, then jumped onto the windowsill and disappeared from everyone's sight in a short while.

"The Eye of Order is fine, but what are you going to do with that arm? The Imperial Research Institute's defenses are very tight, after all, it involves the God-Making Project."

She had once served as the Empire's chief mage, and in that capacity, she had participated in numerous experiments, so she was well aware of just how formidable the research institute's defenses were.

“I know you’re in a hurry, but don’t rush. We have a lot of advantages when it comes to stealing,” Elise said, her gaze naturally falling on Sally.

Elise's gaze was quite obvious, and everyone unconsciously looked at Sally.

Sally, who was enjoying her dessert, suddenly stopped. The once delicious dessert now tasted like cardboard in her mouth.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?"

"Of course I'm ready to watch your performance!" Elise said with a smile.

Sally, as the protagonist, may have rather pathetic combat abilities, but her thieving skills are unparalleled. In the later stages of the game, she can not only break into research institutes, but also enter and exit the hometowns of some gods seven times over.

"Are you sure there won't be any danger?" Sally asked cautiously.

“There will definitely be dangers, but if it were you, you could definitely do it.” Hearing Elise’s words, Sally felt a surge of power for a moment, but she quickly regained her senses. After all, that was the Empire’s research institute, and even Elira said that it was heavily guarded.

"I will not only give you detailed information about the research institute, but I will even give you my eyes. In other words, I will be by your side."

"Huh?" Sally twitched the corner of her mouth, momentarily at a loss for words.

"Even if this operation fails, I have a way to ensure your safe escape."

Having heard what Elise had said, Sally felt she really had no reason to refuse. She scratched her head and asked, "So when do we make our move?"

"Just these two days."

Volume 1: Chapter 512 Infiltration

Outside Seria, Sally was hiding in a secluded corner, observing the farm in the distance.

Although Elise had told her that there was an Imperial research institute beneath the farm, she couldn't discern anything from the surface.

The thought of sneaking into a heavily guarded research institute to steal something made Sally shudder involuntarily.

It wasn't out of fear, but out of excitement.

She hadn't done anything this challenging in a long time since she started working for Elise.

"Control your emotions, don't get too excited." Elise's gentle voice rang in Sally's ear, as tender as a lover's whisper.

Elise not only swapped their right eyes, but Sally even had a worm in her ear so she could contact Elise at any time.

Although the feeling of an insect crawling into her ear was somewhat disgusting, it was very convenient in terms of functionality, and the thought that Elise would guide her throughout the process made her feel much more at ease.

"Don't worry, although I'm not very good at fighting, I've never failed at stealing anything."

"Well, I believe you."

In this situation, Sally didn't talk much with Elise, but simply waited quietly for time to pass.

As night fell, her body gradually sank into the ground, a blessing from Elise that allowed her to move freely within the earth.
