Chapter 1205: Miss Elf
"Speaking of which, after completing the final journey of the key in my hand this Sunday, I will be able to liberate myself from the complicated housework."
Xia De said while tidying up the campsite.
"Because of the 【Laziness】 miracle - Fiona's Housekeeping Servant that you mentioned?"
Luvia asked with a smile.
"Yes."
Xia De said excitedly while poking the campfire:
"I don't know the specific effect yet, but even if it can't cook for me, at least it can help fold clothes, clean the floor, or wipe the windows, right?"
Although Miss Galina's maids would go to St. Deran Square every Saturday for a big cleaning, Xia De couldn't really ignore the hygiene at home on daily days:
"Then will you use this miracle to feed the cat?"
Luvia asked again, and then she saw Xia De shake his head as expected:
"Of course not. Feeding the cat is not a task, but a pleasure. I wouldn't destroy my own pleasure."
The smile on the purple-eyed girl's face became more obvious.
The two of them ate dinner with the unicorn. Xia De even took out a bottle of red wine and clinked glasses with Luvia by the campfire. The unicorn also wanted to taste the red wine, but was rejected by Xia De on the grounds that "underage unicorns" cannot drink alcohol.
But in Luvia's view, adult unicorns should also not drink alcohol.
The starry sky outside the city was very bright. Xia De originally thought he would watch the stars with Luvia until very late and then spend the night in the tent. Unexpectedly, it was only seven o'clock in the evening when the elf girl's familiar whistle sounded in the forest.
Only this time, the little beast that had eaten its fill did not rush over excitedly, but lazily made a sound in the forest:
"Ang~"
This sound was also very penetrating, so the whistling stopped. About ten minutes later, the blonde elf girl, dressed in the same attire as last time, appeared in the firelight on the outskirts of the campsite.
She had seen the light of the campfire here from the forest, so she slowed down her pace and only dared to continue walking over after confirming that the unicorn was safe.
When she arrived outside the fence, which had more formal significance than practical, she recognized Xia De—Xia De had not disguised his appearance either time, but last time it was in the pitch-black forest, so she hadn't seen him very clearly. Then she realized that this time Xia De's female companion was different from last time; the lady last time was clearly taller.
"Miss, can't you keep an eye on it? It can't run into me every time it runs out. What if it runs into a bad person?"
Xia De complained to the elf. The latter stood outside the area covered by the campfire, timidly not daring to answer, so Luvia beckoned to her with a smile:
"Come here and sit down, take a rest. We haven't restricted its freedom; you can take it away at any time."
Luvia's affinity played a good role at this time, or perhaps the unicorn's action of almost resting its head on Xia De's lap made the elf girl have to walk over.
She thanked the two of them softly in Delarion again, and then sat by the campfire in the direction of the unicorn's tail.
Facing this little beast, the elf girl was not so polite. She patted its back quite angrily:
"Why did you run out again? If the teacher finds out, we will both be in trouble."
"Leaving St. Byrons without permission, the academy's punishment seems very scary."
Xia De said with great emotion.
"Yes, the school rules say..."
The elf girl stopped, pursed her lips, and blinked at Xia De. She looked only a little older than Ajelina, but her actual age should be over fifty:
"Do you know that I am a student of St. Byrons?"
Luvia smiled and shook her head:
"Don't worry, we are also students of St. Byrons, but we are correspondence students."
"There are no you in the local correspondence group."
The elf said nervously. She was a fourth-ring warlock. Even if exotic ring warlocks were generally stronger than human ring warlocks, she couldn't beat the five-ring Xia De and Luvia. And her words also proved that even without the unicorn running away, she had visited Randall Valley many times and even knew the local correspondence group.
"We are not members of the local group; we are from out of town."
Xia De said, taking a badge out of his pocket:
"Look at this, this can't be a forgery, right?"
The elf girl looked at the purple-gold medal in the firelight and opened her mouth in surprise:
"Felianna Medal? Are you the one in the rumors who..."
The "Felianna Medal" itself was a very useful alchemical item. Xia De took a fancy to its "clean clothes" effect, so he carried it with him.
"Shh!"
Xia De held up a finger, signaling her not to continue. He didn't care about exposing his identity; after all, he had a teacher in the academy now. And compared to correspondence ring warlocks leaving their areas at will, the punishment for formal students leaving the academy without authorization was greater.
Even, if Xia De were willing to say something like "Elf, you wouldn't want others to know that you left school at will," he could completely obtain more good things from the girl in front of him.
But fortunately, he was still a good person.
"This lady is a joint-training student of the Prophecy Association and the Academy, who came to Randall Valley on official business. I was worried about her, so I used some methods to follow her here. We are all members of the correspondence group in the Tobesk area of the Kingdom of Delarion, and we are all five-ring. Xia De Hamilton, Luvia Anate."
Xia De briefly introduced their identities and looked at the elf in the firelight seriously:
"As your seniors, we really want to warn you not to leave the academy at will. Ring warlocks outside the academy can really 'eat people'."
The elf girl nodded fearfully immediately:
"I heard that correspondence ring warlocks like you can beat three of us at the same level."
"That statement is a bit too exaggerated. How do academy students view correspondence students?"
He asked curiously again, and the elf girl hesitated and said:
"Murder, arson, robbery, theft, fire-fighting, smuggling... probably like this."
Coincidentally, Xia De had actually done all these things.
"Ahem, please introduce yourself. After all, we have met twice. Just briefly say who you are."
The elf girl nodded nervously:
"Elf of the Moon Creek Clan, Emilia Sianod."
Her name "Emilia" was the same as Iluna's middle name, and this name usually meant hardworking, pragmatic, solid, diligent, cautious, patient, beautiful, straightforward, and cute.
"I am a fourth-year student at the academy, but I will definitely be a fifth-year student by the end of this year. I am... the elf responsible for taking care of this little beast. This child always likes to run around. It probably discovered that I would suddenly disappear from the academy, and then discovered the way to come here."
But her method should not be 【Spatial Maze】, otherwise Xia De would have sensed the existence of the ancient god statue long ago.
"We will keep it a secret for you."
Luvia said, looking at Xia De:
"This gentleman and I have no intention of prying into your secrets, but please take good care of this child."
She pointed to the unicorn, her tone very gentle:
"Randall Valley has had some problems recently. The power of an underage unicorn is not strong yet. If you really encounter danger, you definitely won't be able to arrive in time."
The elf girl nodded shamefully, and Xia De added:
"The land of Randall Valley is spreading curses, and illegal organizations like the 【Blood Spirit School】 have also come here. Before you met me early Tuesday morning, I saw them near here with the unicorn, but they were scared away by me."
This was not a lie.
The elf girl also knew about the 【Blood Spirit School】, so she nodded nervously:
"I will keep an eye on it. She is at the age where she likes to travel. If it were in the old era, they would leave the group and take short trips, but now they can only wander around St. Byrons. Although St. Byrons is very large, it is not enough to satisfy its curiosity."
It could be seen that she was also very aggrieved.
After speaking, she hesitated for a moment and asked Xia De softly:
"Sir, since you are not a local, do you have any purchasing channels for 'New World' specialties?"
"Specialties" generally referred to goods from illegal smuggling channels; this was the "jargon" of ring warlocks. Xia De knew what she wanted to do immediately. Compared to correspondence ring warlocks, one of the disadvantages of ring warlocks in school was that once certain materials in the academy were out of stock, they could only wait for the academy to replenish them, and they had no channels to purchase them themselves.
Like Doctor Schneider, who was able to "cash out" academy bonuses through the channels of students in school, it was because he contacted students in the academy and provided them with materials at low prices.
"Do you have a list?"
Xia De asked. The elf shook her head slightly, then took out paper and pen and wrote a few lines:
"These are enough. I can buy them at a 30% premium."
"Wind Vane Blue Grass?"
Xia De saw familiar materials. This kind of material was generally used for spatial miracles or rituals. It seemed that the elf girl also had the 【Space】 spiritual rune.
"No problem. Today is Friday, so... how about delivering the goods here on Tuesday evening next week?"
He suggested. The elf did not expect Xia De to be so straightforward and nodded happily.
"However, since we helped you, you also have to help us do some things."
Luvia said with a smile. Xia De could not say this, otherwise it would seem like Xia De was threatening the other party. And although Luvia didn't know what Xia De wanted to do, seeing him so enthusiastic, it must not be just because he was interested in the elf.
"Okay... I can't tell you how to return to St. Byrons from Randall Valley!"
"We don't want to invade the academy either; that idea is too crazy."
Xia De smiled and shook his head:
"Help me check some information about the local past of Randall Valley, as well as the curse of the 'Crazy Earth'. Check the academy library; any information is fine."
He could not ask Miss Danister directly; that lady was already suspicious of the relationship between Xia De and the "God Caller". ===== CHAPTER 1206 =====
"Help me look up some information regarding the local past of Randall Valley and the curse of the 'Mad Earth.' Check the academy library; any information will do."
He could not ask Miss Danist directly; that lady was already suspicious of the relationship between Xia De and the "God-Awakener."
