“After all, he is the Chief Law Enforcer, he will definitely notice, but it doesn’t matter, he won’t live much longer, and I will be the new order.” Elsa’s smile had been replaced by indifference.
……
As soon as Elise returned to Elira's mansion, she saw Elira hurrying downstairs.
Seeing Elise was like seeing a savior to her, and she quickly said, "I was just about to come find you."
"What happened?"
"Miss Theresa, you've lost yourself in your memories again."
Upon hearing Elira's words, Iris raised an eyebrow and quickened her pace to go upstairs to Theresa's room.
At this moment, you can see that Theresa is sitting quietly on the bed, staring blankly ahead.
However, upon seeing Elise, his empty eyes gradually showed some fluctuation.
Elise frowned slightly, feeling that if this continued, Theresa might become completely lost in her memories, unable to distinguish between reality and recollection.
That's obviously not what she wants to see.
After a moment's thought, Elise had already come up with a solution. She turned to Elira and the maid and said, "You two can go out now. I'll take care of things here."
After seeing the two leave the room, Elise slowly walked up to Theresa and kissed her without hesitation.
At the moment of the kiss, it was noticeable that the emotional fluctuations in Theresa's eyes became increasingly intense.
At the same time, a mark of pleasure appeared in Elise's eyes.
Volume 1: Chapter 552 The Most Terrible Curse
"Again, I'm back in my memories."
Theresa gazed at the neon-lit city before her, her eyes devoid of any emotion.
Each time she awakens her memories, the world undergoes changes, big or small. She has gone from being amazed at the beginning to being able to calmly face everything now.
Theresa is currently attached to her past self. Although she cannot control her past self, she can feel everything about her past self, including her emotional and physical sensations.
It was precisely for this reason that she repeatedly lost herself in her memories.
However, there's nothing that can be done about it, since every time she awakens a memory, she spends a very, very long time in that memory.
Time made her more and more like the person she remembered, and at the same time, it made her feel the longing she had for Elise in her memories.
They say time heals all wounds, but as time went by, she felt more and more strongly that her longing for Elise in her memories was growing stronger, even to the point of being pathological.
In my memory, I am currently in Elise's Manor, which she has been managing since Elise's death.
So even though countless years have passed, this place remains exactly the same as it was back then.
This is one of the few places that still bears her traces.
Just when Theresa thought that this memory would be like before, and she would spend a long time here, a knock on the door caught her attention.
Elise's manor has been hidden by her memories, and almost no one in the world can detect it.
But then there was a knock on the door.
Just then, Theresa suddenly sensed a familiar aura—the aura of Iris.
Upon noticing Iris's presence, Theresa realized that her past self hadn't made any moves. No, it was because someone who shouldn't have appeared in her memories had appeared, which was why her past self hadn't reacted.
Just as she was wondering what to do, Theresa suddenly discovered that she could control her body.
This was the first time she had encountered such a situation. Was it because of Elise?
Although somewhat puzzled, Teresa immediately got up, went downstairs, and opened the door.
Seeing the tightly closed door open, Elise's lips curled into a faint smile: "You've finally come to open the door."
Perhaps it was because of her memories, but upon seeing Iris, Theresa couldn't suppress her inner impulse and pulled Iris into her arms tightly, as if she wanted to meld Iris into her own body.
Elise, who was being hugged, blinked and said, "Don't get so excited, I'm afraid I'll break my back."
Although Theresa was trying her best to control herself, it still took her quite a while to regain control of her body and release Elise.
"So, which Teresa are you now?"
"I am the current Theresa, but for some reason, I suddenly have the ability to control the self in my memories," Theresa answered very honestly.
"I see. But we just met, why are you so excited?"
“Perhaps it’s because of my memories,” Theresa said softly.
Even now, she can still feel the emotions surging within her, so intense they seem to burn her to ashes.
She took a deep breath and continued, "Now that you're here, does that mean I'm lost in my memories again in reality?"
"Hmm, is this a memory that suddenly awakened?"
"Yes, it's been a while since I've actively tried to remove the curse from my body, but the memories still surface from time to time."
"It's alright, I'll stay with you." Elise said, looking around. The manor was still so familiar, as if it had never changed.
It goes without saying that this is the result of Teresa's continuous efforts to maintain the status quo.
The thought that this was the only way the other person could remember her after her death filled Elise with a strange mix of joy and heartache.
After all, she had invested her emotions; how could she drag Theresa down with her without putting herself in the situation herself?
"By the way, how did you get into my memories?" Theresa asked, a hint of confusion in her eyes.
"Of course, it's about bewitching you. Lost in your memories, you offer absolutely no resistance."
If it were just simple seduction, Elise wouldn't be able to do this much. However, she also used the Mark of Sloth to invade Theresa's memories, which is why she was able to appear in this way.
Unexpectedly, Theresa seemed to be affected as well, and was able to communicate with her through memories.
While Iris was finding a place to sit down, Theresa had already skillfully started brewing tea.
Because it's from Theresa's memory, even the aroma of the tea is perfectly reproduced.
"I feel that you've really learned a lot while I was away."
"Yes, ever since you died, my memories of myself are like those of someone who has lost their soul. I've lived in a daze for a long time, and I've even thought about dying."
"But because you said something to the me in my memory..."
“Remember me forever~” Elise continued, picking up where Theresa left off.
Theresa looked at Elise with a complicated expression. These were the last words Elise spoke before she died, and they were also like a terrifying curse, trapping her in time from which she could not escape.
"Do you know how I've spent my time without you? Watching every trace of you disappear little by little, I started to worry that one day I would forget you too. So I desperately searched for any trace of you, even looking for a way to see you again..."
Influenced by her memories, Teresa's tone shifted from calm at the beginning to hysterical and even somewhat manic at the end.
Elise reached out and pulled Theresa into her arms, whispering softly in her ear, "Now, the culprit who made you this way has appeared, so what are you going to do? You can even kill me if you want."
Feeling Elise's warm embrace, Theresa took a deep breath and tried to control her burning, twisted emotions: "I'm sorry, I seem to be affected by my memories again."
"It's okay, don't hold back. Release everything that's been building up inside you, and only then will you find relief."
Elise's voice was like the whisper of a demon.
Volume 1: Chapter 553 Companionship in Memories
"So, it turns out that joy can be felt even in memories~"
Elise lazily rolled over, looked at Theresa beside her, and smiled faintly.
Hearing Elise's words, Theresa seemed a little embarrassed. She wanted to explain that she had only done those things to Elise because of her memories, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.
Seeing that Theresa actually showed a little shyness, Elise couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. She had originally thought that after so many memories had been washed away, it would be difficult to see the other party make such an expression.
Now it seems that Teresa wasn't so deeply affected after all.
Just as Theresa was thinking about what to say, Elise's voice rang out again: "Speaking of which, when you usually awaken your memories, do you usually see yourself acting in those memories?"
"Yes, only after you appear can I control the version of myself in my memories." Theresa raised her hand and looked at it. At this moment, she could not only control her own body, but also feel the powerful force contained within it.
She now felt that even if a god stood before her, she could kill him.
If only such power could be reproduced in reality, but unfortunately it can't.
"Now that I'm here, take me out for a stroll."
"it is good."
Theresa responded softly, then got up and began to dress and wash up. Although she no longer needed to dress or even wash herself, she had maintained this habit for many years.
Elise followed Theresa into the bathroom. As she washed up, she looked at herself in the mirror. Although it was in her memory, the feeling was still so clear no matter what she did.
A short while later, the two left the room and went back downstairs.
Now that it was just the two of them in Elise's manor, Theresa took the initiative to go into the kitchen and start preparing breakfast.
She doesn't remember cooking because she doesn't need to; she no longer feels hungry.
However, Elise's appearance in the memories is different.
Elise walked into the kitchen and watched Theresa's skillful movements. A hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes. She wasn't curious about why Theresa knew these things, but rather how many things Theresa actually knew.
As if sensing something, Theresa also asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"I'm just a little curious, what else can you do?"
Theresa tilted her head, thought seriously for a moment, and then said, "I know a lot of things. After all, the me in my memories has lived for too long. As you have seen, the current Seria is a completely different person."
"Well, I'm just a little curious about how far the various systems in the world have developed to now."
"Wait a moment, I'll take you to see it."
Theresa quickened her pace, and soon the exquisite breakfast was served on the table.
After tasting the breakfast prepared by Theresa, Elise couldn't help but say, "I feel like I could have you as my chef from now on."
"Anything you want is possible."
"By the way, do you also know how to cook rare ingredients?"
"Ah."
Theresa nodded. Since Elise's death, she had learned a lot of things based on Elise's preferences, and cooking was one of them.
"I still have quite a few rare ingredients on hand. I'll have to rely on you when we get back to reality."
"it is good."
The two chatted as they walked out of the manor.
After leaving the manor, the scenery around her suddenly changed, and Elise felt a moment of disorientation. When she came to her senses, she found herself standing by the roadside.
The current Seria looks very similar to the modern city she remembers from before she traveled back in time, with all sorts of skyscrapers, giving her a sense of déjà vu.
However, Elise quickly came to her senses as a hovercar drove past her.
She could sense the magical energy emanating from the car, a product of the advancements in magical technology.
Theresa noticed Elise's distraction and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
"I just suddenly remembered some things, don't worry about them."
The memories of Elise before her transmigration were already blurred, and it was only when she saw this somewhat familiar scene that she gradually recalled some of her past.
Although their attire was completely out of place with those around them, thanks to Theresa, no one noticed their presence at all.
Iris followed Theresa and began to wander around the unfamiliar city of Seria.
Elise initially thought that even Theresa couldn't bring the city to life, but she soon realized she was wrong.
Because no matter where they went, the city remained unchanged, and even the details were perfectly preserved. It seems that Theresa had thoroughly researched the city.
And it's not just a little bit deep.
After all, this is Theresa's memory. If it were a place she had never been to or that she didn't have a strong impression of, it would feel very abrupt when it appeared in her memory. But so far, Elise has not felt the slightest abruptness in Theresa's memory.
In the present day, after countless years of development, Celia's magical technology has made tremendous progress, and even ordinary people can easily use various magical devices.
Elise even saw something resembling a mobile phone.
However, according to Theresa, this thing requires a huge amount of manpower and resources to build the network; otherwise, it's just a brick.
Elise was well aware of this, of course; in fact, she also had a bug network, and had even begun to use it.
The problem is that current mobile phones are all made of insects, which can be a bit off-putting for some people. Perhaps when we get back to reality, Wendy could modify the insects used for communication a bit, like adding a shell similar to a mobile phone.
"This is the tallest building in Seria. You can enjoy the view and sample the local cuisine here," Theresa introduced the place to Iris.
