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

"It seems you still prefer me this way, so I'll stay like this for now. Aren't you touched?"

"Elise!"

Rumia angrily called out Iris's name, her pure and beautiful face contorted in a grimace.

She didn't know why Elise was doing this, or why she was helping that disgusting worm!

Holy light appeared around Rumia, forming countless arrows of light that rained down on Iris.

The light arrows vanished abruptly the moment they approached Elise, as if half of them had been swallowed by an invisible maw, without causing the slightest ripple.

Elise remained calmly in place, looking gently at Rumia: "Aren't you curious about why I did this?"

Rumia didn't speak, but directly ordered Vanessa to attack Elise.

But Vanessa didn't do anything, and another unexpected event occurred.

“Aren’t you curious why Vanessa didn’t attack me? The reason is actually quite simple, because…” Elise exuded the aura of an earth goddess, and a crown-like mark appeared before her, “I am also the target you are looking for.”

~neighbor/、privately kick the flag?

Seeing this, Rumia finally understood why Iris wanted to get close to her.

Her original goal had always been Elise, but Elise had always been by her side without her noticing.

Rumia twitched the corners of her mouth, revealing a self-deprecating smile. At this moment, she felt like a clown: "So you've been plotting against me from the very beginning."

“That’s right, there are other solutions, but I think it’s more interesting to take the initiative to approach you. It must be hard to find out that the person you’re tracking is right next to you, and someone you like.” Iris looked at Rumia with heartache, but an alluring blush rose on her fair face, and even her body began to tremble slightly.

She felt like she was losing control of her desire for pleasure.

"What a joke, how could I possibly..."

"Saying you don't like something might fool others, but it's pointless to fool yourself. After all, you know best what's going on in your heart, don't you?"

Rumia was slightly stunned, but then she felt the love she had managed to suppress begin to surge uncontrollably again. She even wanted to undo her angelic transformation and stay by Iris's side forever.

"You're stalling for time."

"Have I been discovered? After all, I'm only at the third rank, while you now possess power comparable to the sixth rank. No matter what, I could never be your match, so I have no choice but to resort to some underhanded tactics."

Rumia stopped talking to Iris and launched another attack. After the initial probing, she discovered that scattered attacks were ineffective against Iris; anyone who got close to her would be inexplicably swallowed up.

So this time she's going to try a different approach.

A golden cross appeared before Lumia, holy light gathered and then burst forth, a torrent of light instantly engulfing Iris.

Seeing this scene, Rumia even felt a deep sense of reluctance.

"This is really dangerous. If I were hit head-on, I would turn into light, right? Are you really willing to let me just disappear like this?" Iris's voice sounded behind Rumia, tinged with a hint of grievance.

Rumia instinctively wanted to attack Iris behind her, but the next moment she felt a sharp pain on her cheek and was sent flying.

Suddenly, a pair of magical arm armor appeared on Elise's hands, covering them and extending all the way to her elbows.

The instant she knocked Rumia away, Iris immediately launched a pursuit. The massive surge of magical energy exploded, carrying her to catch up with the knocked-away Rumia, forcefully stopping her and sending her flying in another direction.

In this short period of time, Elise kept moving quickly and launching attacks. Rumia's body was constantly being knocked away, and for a short time she couldn't even fight back, just like a ball.

Although it looks cool, it takes a huge toll on Iris, but does very little damage to Rumia.

Rumia, after becoming an angel, is incredibly tough and resilient.

However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that each of Iris's attacks lands on Rumia's head. Iris's aim is to induce a state of disorientation and dizziness, which further reduces Rumia's resistance to the Pleasure Mark.

Volume 1: Chapter 100 The Fallen Saintess

Endless holy light erupted from Rumia's body, instantly sending Iris flying and shattering two walls.

The immense impact caused Elise to cough up blood, and her bones felt as if they were shattered, sending waves of excruciating pain through her body.

However, Elise showed no sign of pain; instead, she became even more excited. Her injuries were completely healed in the next second, and at the same time, a guard in the camp collapsed and quickly fell silent.

Although Rumia successfully escaped Iris's continuous attacks, the dizziness and disorientation that followed made her thoughts slow down again.

In Rumia's golden pupils, the mark of pleasure was already faintly visible.

Rumia realized she needed to end the battle quickly, otherwise she would eventually be consumed by her insane love, and then she would truly stay by Iris's side forever.

Wouldn't it be better to stay by Elise's side forever?

In a daze, Rumia seemed to hear a voice questioning her.

"Don't try to interfere with me!" Rumia shouted irritably, then launched another attack on Iris.

Several chains of holy light instantly formed and coiled towards Elise, binding her into a spread-eagle position.

Seeing that she had bound Iris, Lumia also hurled out her Holy Light Spears one after another.

Just as Elise was about to be pierced by the spear of holy light, a mark of pleasure flashed in her eyes, and the next moment Elise appeared in a corner of the camp, where her original position had been taken by a guard.

Ignoring the guards who had been pierced, Rumia flew directly toward Iris, her pure white wings flapping as countless holy feathers fell and enveloped Iris.

Anyone who touches this feather will be purified—purified from body to soul, leaving not a trace behind.

At the same time, Rumia released a cage of holy light, trapping Iris in place.

But the next moment, Elise's figure changed again, her feathers lightly drifting down onto the believer who had been defiled. The believer was radiating a holy light and then disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"That was really dangerous. You almost didn't see me again." Elise appeared in the distance, patted her chest, and looked relieved.

Rumia hadn't expected that she wouldn't be able to defeat Elise, a third-tier opponent, in such a short time.

Is this really a third-order unit?

As the Pleasure Mark takes effect, Rumia is now finding it hard to take action. Just now, when she saw Iris about to be stuck to the feather, she felt a sense of tension, but after seeing Iris escape, she inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

柒溜芭邬罒l。 《u（八）c霓群

For Rumia, who possessed a 'holy face', this was a clear sign that she was about to be completely bewitched.

This can't go on any longer.

She took out a silver-white spear from her spatial ring, with a touch of crimson at the tip. The moment the spear appeared, an invisible pressure enveloped the entire encampment.

"They even brought out the 'God-Slaying Spear'? That's terrifying."

“Since you know about the ‘Godslayer Spear,’ you should also be aware of its effects.”

"Of course I know, but you, at only level five, cannot unleash the full power of this gun."

The Spear of Godslayer is a divine legacy possessed by the Eternal Church. It is said that the Eternal God used this spear to nail the Corrupted Monarch to death, and the drop of blood at the tip of the spear is the divine blood of the Corrupted Monarch. If one is struck by the Spear of Godslayer, both body and soul will be corrupted.

"You'll know once you try." Without saying anything more, Rumia threw the white spear in her hand.

Elise did not dodge, because the Godslayer Spear had already pierced her chest the moment it was thrown, and the corrupting power instantly eroded Elise's entire body.

Seeing this, Rumia also showed a hint of reluctance. At this moment, she could no longer tell whether it came from her own heart or from the strange mark.

But it's all over now.

However, Rumia soon discovered that the strange branding had not stopped. Elise was still standing there watching her. Her pierced chest had healed. Although the corrupting power surged within her, she was constantly guiding it toward the earth. The brand of pleasure was also constantly transferring the corrupting power within her.

If the Corruption Lord hadn't fallen, she wouldn't have been able to resist the power of corruption at all. But since the Corruption Lord had completely fallen, the power of corruption had been greatly weakened. In addition, with the blessing of the Earth Goddess, most of the power of corruption could be transferred to the earth, preventing it from killing her instantly. That's why she had time to transfer the power of corruption.

As for the corruption of her soul, Elise is not afraid. Having died and been resurrected countless times, her only advantage is the strength of her soul. Without the corrupting power of the Corruption Lord, the impact on her soul is not profound, and recovery is only a matter of time.

"How can it be!"

"I've already said you can't unleash the full power of this gun." (Iris stretched out her four hands and held the God-Slaying Gun in her hand, then casually put it into her spatial ring to prevent the opponent from firing another shot.)

If she were to receive another shot, she wouldn't be able to withstand it.

However, she estimated that Rumia probably wouldn't be able to throw a second shot either. After all, using the Godslayer Spear comes at a price; while using it, one is also affected by corruption. Although it's not as serious as being directly hit, it's definitely not an easy task for Rumia.

Moreover, this was also part of Iris's plan. Rumia, who used the God-Slaying Spear, would have her resistance to the Pleasure Mark reduced once again.

Rumia was well aware of this, so she didn't hesitate to infuse the mark on the back of her hand with holy power, preparing to activate the divine descent.

But at that moment, Rumia suddenly felt hot all over, and her prayers to God turned into some beautiful images. Her fair cheeks were flushed with an alluring pink.

Rumia's biggest trump card: Divine Descent.

She could allow a sliver of the Eternal God's power to descend through her body; if she used it, Elise would surely die.

But the prerequisite is that it can be used.

The divine descent requires Lumia, as a saintess, to communicate with the god through devout prayer, but now that Iris has unleashed the power of pleasure within her, it is impossible for her to concentrate and pray devoutly.

"mean!"

Rumia bit her lower lip, and even her suspended body began to sway as a continuous stream of pleasure assaulted her faltering will.

Her eyes began to glaze over, and her breathing became heavy. Rumia tried several times to pray to God, but her chaotic thoughts made it impossible for her to concentrate.

She didn't understand why Elise could even calculate this step.

Seeing Rumia teetering on the brink of collapse, Elise, having cleansed herself of the corrupting power, launched her final attack on Rumia.

The surge of magic propelled Iris high into the air, sending her hurtling directly toward Rumia.

Having lost all power to resist, Rumia silently closed her eyes, but the expected attack did not come.

She only smelled a faint fragrance of morning dew and flowers, and felt the warmth of the embrace.

Rumia subconsciously opened her eyes and stared blankly at Iris, who was so close to her.

Elise's familiar, gentle voice rang in her ears: "Stay by my side forever and be my dog."

"...Woof."

Blackout, start it up!

Volume 1: Chapter 101 Twisted Desire

Rumia's voice trembled slightly, filled with intense shame and barely suppressed excitement.

Although she had been bewitched by Elise, she remained the saint of the Eternal Church, still proud and holy, but out of love for Elise, she was willing to do anything for her.

The shameful and despicable behavior clashed with her proud and pure personality, giving rise to an extremely twisted pleasure within Rumia.

She stared intently at Elise, as if secretly hoping that Elise would continue to humiliate her.

Even Iris didn't expect Rumia to react this way. Just as she was about to say something, Rumia suddenly felt a void in her body. Her pure white wings and holy halo disappeared. Unable to support her angelic form, she fell to the ground with Iris.

Fortunately, Elise was prepared; her shoes emitted a faint magical glow, instantly slowing their descent until they floated down as lightly as feathers.

Just as Iris landed with Rumia, her shoes seemed unable to withstand the weight and shattered.

This is certainly not because of Elise's weight, but because when she was enveloped by the power of corruption, the magical artifacts on her body were also affected by the corruption. It's a miracle that these shoes have lasted this long.

Apart from her shoes, Elise's clothes were now like tattered pieces of paper, fluttering away in the breeze, revealing her near-perfect body to Rumia.

Even though Rumia was already extremely weak, her eyes gleamed with undisguised desire upon seeing this scene. At that moment, she didn't look like a saintess at all, but rather like a succubus with insatiable desires.

Fortunately, the entire Eternal Church's headquarters has now taken on the shape of Iris, and she has hidden everyone inside in various corners of the headquarters. Only Rumia can see her now.

Elise casually transferred the items from her spatial ring to a new one, then took out a dress and put it on. Afterward, she took out a brand-new set of shoes and socks and handed them to Rumia: "Help me put these on."

Rumia took the shoes and socks but knelt down, holding Iris's fair and flawless right foot as if it were a precious treasure, and then... kissed it deeply.

"What are you doing?" Iris looked at Rumia with a strange expression, even she didn't expect the other party to do this.

Iris's reminder brought Rumia back to her senses, and the shame in her heart resurfaced. She was a saint of the Eternal Church, yet she was doing such a despicable thing... But why, why did she feel so happy?

A strange blush rose on Rumia's face, and she softly replied to Iris, "I don't know, I just did it instinctively. Maybe it looked too good. I... can I continue?"

Seeing that Rumia was still staring intently at her own feet, Iris thought that the other woman must have been affected by the power of pleasure.

"No, please help me change my shoes quickly." Although Elise was somewhat tempted, she didn't have that much time right now.

"Oh."

After carefully helping Iris change her shoes and socks, Rumia stood up, her eyes still seeming a little reluctant.

Although Elise had set up illusion barriers and silence barriers to cover up the traces of the battle, these traces could no longer be concealed once daylight arrived.

Fortunately, the current headquarters of the Nagasaki Church has been transformed into the shape of Iris. Although many people died in the battle, there are still quite a few left. She directly ordered those people to come out and clean up the battlefield.

Then Rumia controlled Vanessa to help.

Vanessa, as the favored one of the Earth Goddess, could easily restore those ruins, and Iris could certainly do the same, but she was now almost completely drained, and the excessive use of the power of pleasure left her with no extra energy to cast earth magic.

After arranging everything, Elise took out another cocoon.

The moment the cocoon came into contact with the air, it instantly transformed into a butterfly. Elise briefly inquired about Wendy's situation.

Wendy said she was already on her way back, and as for the seventh-tier Witcher, she had already destroyed him.
