“Aren’t you worried that ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) I’m just finding an excuse to calm you down first?” Liana said.

“Sister Liana isn’t someone who would play with others’ feelings,” Erinna smiled.

Liana didn’t know where Erinna’s confidence came from, but she was relieved that Erinna could temporarily stabilize her emotions. “You look better when you smile.”

“Then from now on, I’ll only smile for Sister Liana.”

“That won’t do. Because your actions were too absolute, many people have opinions about you. You should be a bit more careful,” Liana said.

“But I didn’t do anything wrong.” Erinna’s actions weren’t wrong, but they were too absolute.

“Some punishments were a bit too severe, weren’t they? Erinna, you should know that yourself, right?” Liana said.

“...Mm.” During this period, Erinna’s mental state had been somewhat poor, so some of her decisions were too extreme, causing some people to have significant grievances against her.

“I still have many shortcomings and have made many impulsive decisions. But from now on, I’ll do my best to become an excellent duchess. To not disappoint Sister Liana, and to earn more points from Sister Liana, I need to work even harder,” Erinna smiled.

More points...

“Then you’ll have to work hard, because with Mephilia’s existence, my standards are very high,” Liana said.

“I know. Princess Mephilia has always been my competitor since childhood.”

“Is the pressure great? After all, we’re talking about Mephilia,” Liana teased.

“I’ll win. No, wait, what am I comparing with Princess Mephilia? What’s important now is how Sister Liana views me, right? Sister Liana wouldn’t change her opinion of me because of Princess Mephilia, would she?” Erinna smiled.

“Of course not. The matters between us are decided by me. I won’t make things difficult for you because of Mephilia. I’ll observe everything you do and award points accordingly,” Liana said.

“Mm.” Erinna nodded.

“Calculating the time, Princess Mephilia should be returning soon,” Erinna said.

“Hm?” Liana was puzzled. “How long have you kept me here?”

“Twenty-three hours.”

“...” Liana looked at Erinna helplessly. Indeed, Mephilia should be returning by now.

“Shall I take Sister Liana back to her room now?” Erinna asked.

“It doesn’t matter.” Liana disguised herself as an elf. “We meet again, Duchess Erinna.”

“...Sister Liana, really.” Erinna certainly remembered this disguise, though at that time she hadn’t realized it was Sister Liana.

“I can use some simple elf magic. Ordinary people can’t distinguish whether I’m an elf or not, so it’s not impossible for you to take me around for a tour,” Liana gave Erinna a playful expression.

“By the way, this is our secret. You’ll keep it, right?” Liana winked at Erinna.

So cute!!!!

Why would there be such a cute person!!!

But besides cuteness, there was also jealousy.

Princess Mephilia could always enjoy this version of Sister Liana, and could even do those things to Sister Liana.

If only she had been more decisive at that time, she could have just taken Sister Liana.

But this situation wasn’t bad either. At least she had a chance now.

“But Sister Liana is very familiar with Venus Manor, aren’t you? I don’t have many places to show you,” Erinna said.

“That’s true. Then just take me somewhere to rest. I’m feeling a bit tired and hungry.” It was better not to return to her room now. If Mephilia were to come, she would certainly be accompanied by others. It would be strange if she emerged from Liana’s room then.

“I understand. I’ll have Naibert prepare something for Sister Liana to eat,” Erinna said.

“Sister Liana?”

“No, I mean miss elf,” Erinna smiled slightly.

[Teleport]

Erinna raised her hand and used teleportation magic, transporting the two of them to the forest.

“This place, the location of the teleportation changes periodically. Apart from certain specific people, no one knows about it,” Erinna explained.

Indeed, even Liana herself didn’t know.

Erinna placed her hand on Liana’s forehead. “Perhaps... you might need this.”

Liana suddenly felt a strange incantation appear in her memory.

“Alright, let’s take you to rest,” Erinna said.

“Good.” Liana nodded, then took a step...

It still hurts!!!

Although the pain had somewhat eased after applying the medicine, it obviously couldn’t completely eliminate the pain. At the very least, Liana still couldn’t walk with normal strides.

“...I’m sorry.” Seeing Liana’s strange walking posture, Erinna immediately understood why.

“I’m fine.” Liana was soft everywhere except her mouth.

“Alright.” Erinna’s priority now was to take Liana to rest.

She brought Liana to the most luxurious resting room.

“Lock the door. Without Sister Liana’s permission, it can only be forcibly opened. But obviously, the guards outside won’t allow that to happen,” Erinna said.

“Mm.” Liana nodded, quite satisfied with Erinna’s arrangements.

“I’ll go have Naibert prepare some food for Sister Liana now.”

“Good.” Liana just wanted Erinna to leave as soon as possible.

But Erinna still stood before Liana.

“Is there anything else?” Liana asked.

“Well... the points.”

“Is that something you should be doing? I told you, I’m very strict,” Liana smiled.

“Fine.” Erinna conceded. After all, what she had said at that time was indeed quite impolite. But she couldn’t help it, it really was beautiful. She wanted to lick it.

After Erinna left, Liana used magic to lock the door. Why didn’t she walk to it? Because it still hurts.

Liana sat on the sofa, slowly removing her undergarments, then used magic to create a mirror in front of herself.

“Is it beautiful...” This was the first time Liana had carefully observed this area.

Pink and delicate, clean and white, perhaps...

Liana reached out and gently touched it. “Ouch... still painful.”

It seemed that for the upcoming period, she probably wouldn’t be able to walk properly.
