She had experienced that feeling before, when she was on the verge of death. However, the other person was not the one in front of her, but the one who had been corrupted.
Once converted into a believer, there is no way to escape; only death can bring liberation.
"Speaking of which, since you were able to find this place, you must know something about it, right?"
"Yes, one of the Eternal God's experiments to save the world, Dreamland Paradise."
During the Age of Gods, the Eternal God had considered how to save the world from a crisis and the imminent extinction of humanity, and the Dreamland was one of His ideas.
Based on the powers of the Dream Beasts, a dream paradise was constructed, from which human souls were extracted and transferred to escape disaster.
That's why Elise said this was another refuge, a special kind of refuge.
The results of the experiment were not satisfactory. Even though the God of Eternity imprisoned the Dream Beast, seized His authority, and constructed a dream world that could be called Paradise, the souls of ordinary people could not survive in the dream paradise for long.
If an ordinary person's soul stays in the Dream Paradise for just a few days, it will be assimilated into the Dream Paradise and become a part of it.
The more powerful a soul is, the longer it can stay in such a place, but it still cannot avoid being assimilated.
Therefore, the experiment here was suspended.
However, just as the Eternal God was about to reclaim the slice, He was corrupted.
So He kept the slice and erased all memories associated with it.
This is why this dreamland has survived to this day.
“So you knew all along.” The nun’s lips curled up slightly, and she continued, “After all, I am just a fragment. Now I have completely merged with this paradise, so I would like to ask you to find an opportunity for my original body to fall into a deep sleep.”
"It's no use. You said yourself that you are just a slice. Even if your original body is pulled into the dream, it will only cause this place to collapse, and may even cause the dream beasts to become polluted, which will lead to no one daring to enter the dream in the future."
She wasn't just saying it casually; she had actually experienced that timeline when she was on the verge of death.
"Judging from your expression, you must have a better way?"
"Yes, but we'll have to wait. Once my people have developed to the point where they can kill gods, I'll need your help to restrain your original consciousness."
The nun quickly understood Elise's idea: launching an attack from both the dream and reality levels simultaneously would indeed greatly increase the chances of success.
"Okay, I'll wait for you. Before that, if there's anything I can help you with, just let me know. But as you know, there's not much I can do right now."
"You should have sensed it by now. My companion is a believer of yours, and she's having some problems with her faith. Just help me resolve that problem."
Elise knew that there wasn't much the other person could do right now, so she didn't force her. She just asked her to help solve Rumia's problem so that her trip wouldn't be in vain.
"You know she's one of my followers, and yet you still managed to bewitch her." The nun's face showed a hint of anger.
"You can also dispel her allure."
"Really? Aren't you afraid she'll kill you after her charm wears off?"
"How about we make a bet? If she comes to me for revenge the moment her spell wears off, then you win and I'll become your follower. If her attitude towards me doesn't change much, then you lose and I'll take the Eternal Holy Mark."
"it is good."
Elise had originally intended to suggest that she be allowed to stroll around Dreamland, but right after making the bet with the nun, the church began to collapse, and she fell back into a deep sleep.
……
Still in the church of Dreamland, Elena looked at the familiar church before her, a look of confusion flashing in her eyes.
She was all too familiar with this place; after all, she had died countless times in this church.
However, the church in her dream was a burning church, while this one remained intact.
So here's the question: Where are we?
"Signing up without an invitation is not a polite thing to do."
The gentle voice brought Elena back to her senses. She looked at the nun who had appeared in the church at some point, her eyes filled with wariness.
She herself didn't know how she got into this church. She only knew that she was lying in bed as usual, preparing to have a good sparring match with herself in her dream, and then she appeared here.
Just then, the surrounding temperature suddenly began to rise, and flames emerged from nothingness, beginning to scorch the entire church.
The nun didn't seem to care, only a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes.
Before long, the burning church transformed into the familiar sight Elena knew, and in the center of the church, another familiar figure of hers appeared.
Looking at the two Elenas appearing before her, the nun's eyes lit up with sudden realization: "I knew how she knew so much! I see, I see!"
Elena walked over to her other self and asked in a low voice, "Who is that person in the nun's habit?"
"He is a slice of the eternal God." Elena looked at the nun calmly in the dream.
Upon hearing her other self's words, Elena's expression stiffened. She truly hadn't expected that she would encounter the legendary God of Eternity while simply taking a nap.
Even though it's just a slice, it's already incredible.
Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness.
Before losing consciousness, Elena heard another version of herself say to the nun, "I want to make a deal with you."
Volume 1: Chapter 358 The Saintess's Sense of Shame Returns
"Damn it, what kind of deal is this that I can't know about?!"
When Elena woke up the next day, her mind was filled with the words that her other self had said to the fragment of the Eternal God before she fell into a deep sleep.
She was really curious about the details of the transaction between the two.
Curious, she immediately fell back into her dream upon waking, entering the burning church to question another version of herself.
However, when she entered the burning church, she found only Fran, the dragon, sleeping in a corner, with no sign of her other self.
This was the first time Elena had ever seen anything like this. She blinked, then turned and walked toward the church entrance.
She had been inside the burning church all this time, never having gone outside to see what was outside, and had no idea what lay beyond.
But just as she was about to push the door open and leave, she suddenly sensed extreme danger. Without hesitation, she used her dragon transformation, and fine dragon scales instantly appeared on her body.
Just as she transformed into a dragon, a flying sword pierced the back of her head.
As the sound of metal clashing rang out, the flying sword was sent flying.
Elena turned to look at the church and discovered that another version of herself had appeared out of nowhere.
If she hadn't transformed into a dragon in time, she probably would have died on the spot.
How did you manage to appear so quietly?
"No one makes a sound while launching a sneak attack, right?" Elena said calmly in her dream.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you about this. I'm more curious about what kind of deal you made with the God of Eternity, and why this church is so similar to the one He resides in." Elena voiced her inner doubts.
"The details of the transaction need to be kept secret for now. As for why the two churches are so similar, it's because this was originally His church, but after His fall, I took it over and used it," Elena said calmly in the dream.
"So that's how you search; [search] ∴QUn:怡燯,℃柒&≡@(→→,I was wondering why it felt exactly the same."
Elena muttered a shout, pointed to the church door, and said, "Can I go out and take a look?"
"Outside, it's a scene of devastation; there's nothing to see."
"I feel like you're trying to fool me."
Although there was no evidence, the other person was, after all, another version of herself, and being fooled by that other version of herself gave Elena a sense of déjà vu.
"If you don't have anything else to do in the morning, you should get up quickly, so that she doesn't have to come and wake you up."
"I like it when she calls me, so what?" Elena had barely finished speaking when a giant drill made of several flying swords instantly pierced a hole in her heart.
When the deceased Elena opened her eyes again, she had returned from her dream.
She instinctively touched her chest, surprised that even after transforming into a dragon, her strong defenses were still breached. Her other self was truly powerful.
But the stronger the opponent, the stronger Elena's fighting spirit became. She had now mastered another power that she had not been able to control. As long as she continued to develop, defeating the opponent was only a matter of time.
Although that's what she said, to be honest, Elena didn't have much confidence, after all, her other self had undergone far more trials than she had.
Even if we can defeat them, it will probably take a very, very long time.
Gathering her scattered thoughts, Elena had just changed her clothes and stepped out of the room when she saw Elise also coming out of the room.
Such a coincidence made Elena raise an eyebrow. Just as she was about to say something, Elise spoke first: "Did you wait for me to come out of the door just for this coincidence?"
"Who was waiting for you at the door? This time it was really a coincidence."
"So, you've done this kind of thing before~"
"No."
Although Elena kept trying to defend herself, Elise clearly didn't believe her, which made Elena so angry that she wanted to teach this wicked woman a lesson.
But for the sake of her health, she didn't do it.
"Um, I saw the God of Eternity last night," Elena said softly.
Elise glanced at her with some surprise. It was reasonable for her to be summoned by the God of Eternity, but why would the God of Eternity summon Elena?
"Don't stare at me like that, I don't know why."
Elena really wanted to say it was because of her other self, but that other self had told her not to reveal her existence, so Elena could only make up an excuse.
"Did anything happen?"
"No, I only met him once and then fell asleep."
Elise guessed that it must be because Elena had awakened her memories of her past life, which attracted the attention of the Eternal God; otherwise, she really couldn't find any other suitable reason.
Just as the two went out for a walk, a streak of light suddenly appeared, and then Rumia appeared directly next to Iris.
As soon as Rumia appeared, she grabbed Iris's arm and whispered, "M-Master, could you please charm me again?"
Last night, after Rumia fell asleep, she entered the Dreamland and saw a slice of the Eternal God.
She understood then what Elise meant by "don't rush."
It turns out that person was always in a dream.
He helped resolve Rumia's faith issues and even kindly helped her remove the bewitching spell.
After the charm was broken, Rumia found that she didn't seem to have changed much. At least her feelings for Iris were still the same as before, and deep down she still longed for Iris to bully her.
However, it can't be said that nothing has changed. After the charm was removed, Rumia felt as if her sense of shame had returned.
In the past, it would have been perfectly natural to call Elise "master," but now it's a little difficult to say.
After finally managing to say it, the feeling of shame almost overwhelmed her.
Keep in mind that she is a saintess of the Eternal Church. Although she is the former saintess, she has met with the Eternal God and would actually take the initiative to call Iris "master".
If I were bewitched, that would be one thing, but I'm not bewitched right now.
As she thought about it, a blush appeared on Rumia's fair cheeks, and her body even trembled slightly.
This is one of the symptoms of her fever.
Upon hearing Rumia's words, Elise knew that the God of Eternity had already removed the enchantment from Rumia. She chuckled softly, "I think you're doing just fine now, aren't you?"
Volume 1: Chapter 359 The Eternal God: 6
"How is this going?"
Elena looked at Rumia with some curiosity. She hadn't heard the two whispering to each other, but Rumia's behavior seemed a little different from usual.
Feeling Elena's gaze made Lumia, who was already extremely ashamed, even more ashamed, but at the same time, she became even more excited.
"I... I just feel that being charmed feels more natural." Rumia gently shook Iris's arm, her voice unconsciously carrying a hint of pleading.
But the more she pleaded, the more excited Elise became.
She cleared her throat, then said to Rumia in a serious tone, "Now that the enchantment has been lifted, you can take this opportunity to return to being the pure and innocent saint you once were."
Rumia twitched the corner of her mouth. She was already in Iris's shape; how could she possibly revert back?
However, she also realized that Elise was trying to provoke her and make her feel even more ashamed.
Thinking about this, Lumia became even more excited. 9
She suddenly realized Elise was right. If she could maintain the same behavior she had while under the spell even after the spell was broken, the resulting pleasure would be absolutely intoxicating!
Through their brief conversation, Elena realized that Rumia must have seen Him as well, and that He had even lifted Rumia's spell.
But Elena really didn't expect that Rumia would still behave like this after the charm was removed.
Is this really the noble and inviolable saintess?
That wicked woman, Elise, is truly terrifying. 6
