Chapter 1155 You are really living it up here, aren’t you?
In the middle of nowhere, a small elven establishment where not even level 100 elves resided, there was a little farm with lush green plants growing on it.
A young elven girl was carefully tending to this farm, with her gentle hands caressing each plant with love and warmth.
However, if one looked closely one could see that there was also something else apart from the love and warmth, a gentle nouris.h.i.+ng green glow that made the plants healthier.
The plants were nothing special, just staple food. But the elven girl seemed very happy to use her potent magic for seemingly nothing.
It was a very tranquil and enchanting atmosphere and her hair swayed in the wind as she continued doing the same thing in a very carefree and relaxed manner.
Some people might find it boring but she seemed peaceful and satisfied.
Days pa.s.sed by in the same manner when suddenly one day a hateful voice interrupted her tranquil life.
"Wow! You are really living it up here, aren"t you?"
The young woman turned around in shock as she stared in the direction of the mocking voice. For a moment she expected something but unfortunately for her, it was only that hateful person standing in front of her and not the one she wanted.
Eldrin laughed out loud at the innocent expression the young woman was making. Of course, he knew the reason why. "This is what you are doing with your newfound freedom? Truly pathetic!" He continued to mock her.
"Who thought that the elven girl whom the whole empire is searching for is standing here and growing a bunch of useless plants."
Elira narrowed her eyes in displeasure. This was the last person she wanted to see. It was clear that the elf was not planning to leave her without talking to her. "What brings you to my farm?"
Eldrin chuckled and then glanced dismissively at the rows of flouris.h.i.+ng plants. "It baffles me that you waste your magic on these mundane plants. You could be honing your skills for something greater, you know."
Elira glared at the hateful elf but then she shook her head and went back to her work. She had nothing to say to him and she wanted nothing to do with him.
Her master had warned her plenty of times to be wary of this guy. So she was already determined not to trust him under any circ.u.mstance.
However, the next second…
"Okay… a little rude… but I will let it slide. If you don"t want to talk to me or see me, I understand. I understand. I am leaving right now. Hey. You don"t have to tell me twice. I didn"t plan on staying here for too long anyways."
Eldrin then started walking away, casually shrugging his shoulders. "I was planning to go on a long journey. I guess no one wants to accompany me. Hmmm… Traveling to the forbidden territory will be so lonely. Sigh."
"I wonder how long it will take me to get back to that human being. He should be extremely busy at the moment. I think he will be more than happy to get some help from me. Welp. At least I can guard him while he is busy trying to make pills or potions."
Elira"s eyes suddenly sparked with interest. She was prepared to ignore the elf"s rant, but she realized that she had overlooked something obvious. Wouldn"t her master need her?
Eldrin might not know but Elira knew very well that Liam was a grandmaster alchemist and a grandmaster forger. Such great beings typically needed servants to help them with menial tasks.
How could she overlook something so obvious? Just because her master told her that she was free, it did not mean that he told her to stay away. If she was truly free, then she also had the freedom to go to him and follow him.
As if a spark had been lit in her, Elira"s entire body trembled. She looked at the tranquil fields around her but she no longer felt any sense of peace or satisfaction.
"If you"re heading towards where my master is, I would like to accompany you." She picked up speed and immediately caught up to the chubby elf.
Eldrin laughed and raised an eyebrow. "I thought you were happy with your "freedom," tending to your garden and all."
Elira ignored him which made the elf laugh again."Obviously, I am not doing this out of the kindness of my heart. I just don"t like my investments to go to waste!"
Elira froze for a moment before relaxing. She still did not trust him but what he said seemed convincing enough. After all, this elf was a greedy b.a.s.t.a.r.d.
The awkward atmosphere suddenly eased up and the two of them moved through the forests as fast as they could.
It was a long journey even though she used blink to keep up with Eldrin"s speed. They also had to take roundabout routes in many places because of the intense search that was going on for them.
A few months later, they finally arrived at their destination. Both Elira and Eldrin gulped as they entered the boundary. Thankfully, just like before no barrier activated and they were able to freely enter.
However, they had barely taken a few steps when they came across the first monster in the forbidden territory.
Eldrin prepared himself as his eyes slightly widened at the strange creature he was seeing.
It looked like a huge orc but it had an elven head? It also seemed to possess somewhat spectral characteristics. Just what sort of strange creatures were lurking around in the forbidden territory?
Luckily it was only level 220. He should be able to deal with it quite quickly. "I will handle this." He fleetingly glanced at Elira when he noticed that the other party did not seem to care in the least.
She only had a big smile on her face as she fearlessly ran towards the strange whitish-blue translucent creature.
"Take me to him!"
"Him?" Eldrin immediately understood and his face relaxed to form a helpless smile.
He thought that he had a sufficiently good understanding of his mysterious human partner but maybe he still did not know anything.
