Chapter 1192: Elf

~10 min read 1,937 words

Miss Benanisi's "Pink Bottle Sequelae" seemed to be better. Seeing Xia De staring at the holy emblem, she went to check other parts of the church first. But this is a cemetery after all, and there were no discoveries worth mentioning. Finally, only words telling the story of this church were found on the wall. That is somewhat similar to an epitaph, recording the life of Saint-Pery the nun, but unfortunately most of them are the nun's clergy resume, and did not mention Xia De and his companions in the Worm Cave.

However, before leaving, Xia De memorized those words in his mind, which is convenient for reproducing them with 【Moon Library】 in the future.

"It's been a long time since I had such an interesting adventure. It's really nice to go out for a walk occasionally."

The witch stood by Xia De and said, stealing glances at him, but Xia De was still immersed in the nostalgia for the years.

The two did not stay here for long. After leaving the church, they unexpectedly found that the thick fog outside had disappeared. This ancient church appeared in the real world again. The hidden land no longer covered its location. Through the footprints on the snow in the forest, they could return to the camp of the crowd again.

So Xia De and the witch discussed revealing the location of this church to the Sun Church through the Witch Council. They must be very interested in this place. As for the items in the church, Xia De only took the hand bone and the silver flute, and Miss Benanisi took the stone slab of the witch emperor's relic. Other things, including the holy emblem, sarcophagus, and chains, were not taken away by them.

After all, they are not believers of the Sun God, and Xia De can almost be sure that this holy emblem will be kept in the church of this parish. When the matter of the Chosen One makes a big noise and Iluna comes to the local area, this will definitely belong to her.

Due to the influence of those black muds, there is no need to worry about leaving their traces in the church, or being tracked by tracking-type powers to find their identities, so after slightly covering their tracks, they returned to the camp.

And at this time, the witch's followers who were sleeping by the campfire had just woken up. The girls all had the same dream, turning into a seed in the dream, growing in the earth, and witnessing the story of soil and years. After waking up from such a dream of slumber, everyone was full of energy, but Xia De and Miss Benanisi, who had experienced the battle, looked a bit embarrassed.

"Miss, your complexion is really... good, you look even more beautiful."

The brown-haired young girl who welcomed the two back praised the Great Witch, who touched her cheeks quite embarrassedly. Looking at Xia De from the corner of her eye, Xia De was playing with the cheerful unicorn, which seemed to really like Xia De.

The campfire in the camp was still burning, and the time had reached the second half of the night, which was the early morning of Tuesday, and there were still about three or four hours before the sun rose. They did not immediately embark on the return journey, but first rested by the campfire for a while.

Xia De took out the "Healing Holy Grail" for testing, and sure enough, found that its role was to turn the poured clear water into medicinal water with healing effects. But the effect of this healing medicinal water is far less than the medicinal water made by "Satiating Food," but the advantage is that after testing, this medicinal water can not only treat external injuries, but also treat and alleviate some mild epidemics. Among the "Purifying Water," "Bountiful Fruit," and "Healing" Holy Grails that Xia De has obtained, this cup seems to have the greatest effect.

And taking advantage of this rest time, the Great Witch by the campfire finally couldn't help but ask about Xia De's identity:

"You are..."

She looked at the long sword placed by Xia De, and the scabbard shone brightly under the campfire.

"No, at least not what you think."

Xia De shook his head:

"I only have five rings."

"But the sword..."

"This is a misunderstanding, it's hard to explain in detail. But I admit, the Summer Night God Descent in Tobesk, the Merman Great Event in Cold Water Port, the Darkness Descent in Tobesk, the Xikar Battle in Mid-Hill Fort, and the Battle on the Heart Island of Pantanal Lake, these things all have my presence."

This is more impactful than Xia De directly admitting that he is the "God Caller," and the witch didn't know what to say for a while.

"Isn't it strange? When participating in those things, I was only a Low-Ring, but I was indeed more or less involved with those dangerous things."

The witch opened her mouth slightly, and the dozen questions she had just brewed could not be said at this moment:

"I will communicate with Galina, I will not force you to tell your secrets."

She didn't even notice that her tone was very soft:

"However, I want to know, why are you involved in these things at the risk of danger?"

"Because of a promise, a promise with a girl."

Xia De looked at the campfire and said, the face of the purple-eyed girl flashed in the firelight. The blonde witch nodded slightly, then looked up at the starry sky. She noticed Xia De's expression and associated many stories. Her heart was a bit melancholy and a bit lost.

After resting for half an hour, the group packed up the camp and prepared to go back. The unicorn stood by Xia De and watched people busy. Xia De thought it would still return to the city with the crowd, and then be raised by Miss Benanisi on her farm, becoming the witch's "private mount." Unexpectedly, the campfire in the camp had just been extinguished, and the female Shushi were casting spells to prevent tracking miracles that might appear later. In the forest in the middle of the night, a long whistle sounded suddenly.

That was not the sound of any musical instrument or object, but more like a whistle made by mouth and hands.

The sound was extremely penetrating, spreading continuously in the sparse forest in the creek. Xia De and the ladies beside him were all startled. Xia De even thought that the 【Blood Spirit School】 had launched a counterattack.

But before they could judge the source of the sound, the unicorn turned its head suddenly, gave a happy "Ang~" cry, then rubbed its face against Xia De's waist, and ran quickly into the depths of the woods.

"What's the situation again? You wait here."

Miss Benanisi said to her followers, then pulled Xia De and chased after it.

The unicorn's speed was not fast, or at least not as fast as Miss Benanisi, who had activated auxiliary miracles. Xia De only felt that his body was supported by a gust of wind and felt light. When he was pulled by the witch and ran forward, the surrounding scenery swept backward quickly.

When the witch and Xia De walked out from behind a big tree in the snowy forest, they finally saw the little beast stop.

The moonlight passed through the sparse forest canopy, illuminating the snow surface into a silvery white. On the slightly glowing snow surface, the elf girl with pointed ears, wearing a black robe, a horn hanging from her waist, and a dagger inserted, wearing brown ladies' short boots, was squatting down with a smile, gently stroking the little beast lying in front of her.

The skin is fair, and the long golden hair is braided into dozens of long braids. The elf in the moonlight also seems to be glowing at this moment, but when she looked up at the two and revealed a terrified expression on her face, the dreamlike feeling of walking out of a fairy tale was immediately shattered.

"Oh!"

The unknown elf girl stood up immediately. She pulled up the hood of her cloak to cover her face, and then hid carefully behind the unicorn that stood up again:

"Who are you?" (Delarian language)

Xia De and Miss Benanisi looked at each other, and finally Xia De spoke:

"Good evening, lady. We met it in the woods this morning, and it lived with us for half a day... We fed it pies, fruits, and vegetable salads for lunch and dinner, and it seems to love these." (Delarian language)

Xia De learned about the unicorn's recipe from 【Witch Echo】 and "Elf Knowledge," and feeding it would not be wrong.

"Thank you, I will pay for its meal."

The elf girl said in a low voice, then rummaged through her pockets to get money.

"No need, it didn't eat much... May I ask, are you an elf?"

Xia De asked, and the "Elf Knowledge" given by the Tree Father could help him identify that this was a pure-blooded elf. And the woven runes on the clothes inside the cloak, as well as the style of the headwear and leaf brooch, also allowed Xia De to barely distinguish the other party's clan:

"Gold Core Clan? Moon Creek Clan? Or Wind Chaser Clan?"

He asked softly, this time using Elvish language. Miss Olanod, the librarian of the Fifth Era, is a Long-Leaf Elf and does not belong to the same clan as the girl in front of her.

The elf girl opposite was quite surprised to hear Xia De's words:

"Moon Creek... Sir, do you understand Elvish? No, no, sorry, I should leave. Thank you very much for helping to take care of it. This child always likes to run around, this time it ran so far. Oh, please don't tell others about our tracks... Goodbye."

She put something on the snow, patted the little beast's head, and the latter lay down docilely. The elf lady rode on it, which made the Great Witch beside Xia De widen her eyes.

The little beast turned around in place. Although it was reluctant to part with Xia De, it called to him twice, carried the elf lady who was obviously very curious about Xia De, and ran into the depths of the woods.

It can be seen that the young elf is very afraid of Xia De and Miss Benanisi, and the two did not chase her. After the figure disappeared completely, Xia De walked up and picked up the gold leaf on the ground. It was a tree-leaf-shaped brooch made of gold, which was an elf ornament, and it was enough to be used as a reward.

"The elf legend of Landel Valley is actually true?"

Xia De asked the witch, took out the silver cube to look at it, and the Mithril did not have any reaction.

The witch looked suspiciously at the darkness in the forest where the elf and the unicorn disappeared:

"The origin of the local elf legend is because in the early days of this era, there was indeed an elf tribe living in Landel Valley. But later they moved away and went to Saint-Byron in the far north, only occasionally elves would come back to see, and after being witnessed by hunters in the mountains and forests, there would be rumors... The earth tells me that they have completely disappeared and cannot be tracked." ===== CHAPTER 1193 =====
