Dinner was held in a hall filled with luminous pearls. There weren't many people in attendance. A young elven couple, Lorraine's sister, Lorraine, and Abel, a total of 5 people.
"First, let me introduce myself. My name is Edwina Doyle, Lorraine's mother, the Grand Duke of the elves, and the City Lord of Angstrom City!" The elven lady slightly bowed and introduced herself with a smile.
"The honorable Grand Duke Edwina, Bennett the wandering elf greets you!" After hearing Grand Duke Edwina's self-introduction, Abel instinctively stood up and bowed with half of his body.
"Mr. Bennett, I'll call you that for now. No matter what your identity is, you have saved my dear little daughter. She is the apple of my eye, Duke Albert and I." Speaking up to this point, the elven man beside Grand Duke Edwina slightly bowed and smiled at Abel. Grand Duke Edwina continued, "Thank you for everything you have done!"
After Grand Duke Edwina and Duke Albert both stood up and bowed to Abel. Abel quickly stood up and bowed back.
"My name is Carrie, Lorraine's sister. Thank you for saving my little sister!" Lorraine's sister Carrie also stood up and bowed.
"Saving Lorraine was just an accident. You are too kind!" Abel bowed back.
"Mr. Bennett, now that you have said your thanks, let's talk about your identity!" Grand Duke Edwina said with a smile.
Abel's heart skipped a beat. He turned and looked at Lorraine. He thought Lorraine had told her family about his identity, but he saw Lorraine also shook her head at him in confusion.
"Mr. Bennett, Lorraine didn't tell me anything about you. Your transformation technique is very clever. Other than a few elves from the elven royal family, no other elves could find your flaws. But I'm very curious, are you a human or an orc?" Grand Duke Edwina stared at Abel and asked.
"The prestigious Grand Duke Edwina, since you already know, I won't hide it anymore. I am a human, and my name is Abel Harry. Due to some problems with my identity and the fact that the elves don't like humans, I had to disguise myself and come to Angstrom City. I apologize for hiding my identity!" Abel said with a half-bow.
"Human? I always thought the last transformation necklace was in the hands of the orcs. I didn't expect it to be in the hands of a human! "Grand Duke Edwina frowned.
"The honorable Grand Duke Edwina, you know about the transformation necklace?" Abel asked in surprise.
The transformation necklace had always been Abel's deepest secret. It was one of his escape methods. He didn't expect Grand Duke Edwina to point it out.
"The transformation necklace was originally owned by the elves. It was made by the Goddess of the Moon. There were 5 of them in total. After countless years, 3 of them were damaged, 1 went missing, and the last one was stored in the royal family's secret room. The elf you transformed into has completely turned into a real elf. If it wasn't for the scent of the Goddess of the Moon, I wouldn't be able to confirm your identity." Grand Duke Edwina explained.
"Abel Harry, I'm very familiar with this name." Duke Abel on the side said, "Blacksmith Master Abel, the youngest blacksmith master in the human world. You should be the one I'm talking about, right?"
"The prestigious Duke Albert, you're right. That's me!" Abel nodded and admitted.
Abel didn't dare to cancel his transformation. If he did, his suit would explode, and he would be embarrassed on the spot.
"Edwina, I like this kid. He's like me when I was young!" Duke Albert laughed and said to Grand Duke Edwina. Duke Albert must have heard about Abel. Abel had caused a lot of trouble in the human world.
"He's just like you when you were young!" Grand Duke Edwina stared at Duke Albert and said.
Then Grand Duke Edwina turned to Abel and said, "Lorraine's identity is very special. She has the mark of the Goddess of the Moon since she was born. We elves call her the chosen one. Other than the necessary education, everything else is natural. Therefore, we can't stop Lorraine from liking you."
"Mother!" Lorraine whispered with a blushing face.
"Abel, I don't care who you are, but I have a few questions for you. If your answers don't satisfy me, even if it means offending the gods, I will stop you from interacting with each other." Grand Duke Edwina said in a serious tone.
"The prestigious Grand Duke Edwina, please ask!" Abel said in a serious tone.
"First of all, do you know Lorraine's age? There is a huge age difference between humans and elves. Humans become adults at 18, and elves at 80. Lorraine is 50 years old. Do you care? "Grand Duke Edwina stared into Abel's eyes and asked.
"The prestigious Grand Duke Edwina, age is not a problem!" Abel replied with a smile. Other than Lorraine, the other 3 elves were very powerful. They could tell that Abel was being sincere.
Abel was being sincere. He calculated in his heart. His mental age should be similar to Lorraine's in this life. It was a perfect match.
Grand Duke Edwina nodded and continued to ask, "Loraine's lifespan is at least 600 years. Are you confident that you can stay by her side forever?"
"The prestigious Grand Duke Edwina, my training talent is not bad. At least for my age, I don't think there are many people who can surpass me. I have enough time and talent to keep improving." Abel said confidently.
"In my eyes, you are a rank 3 wizard. Although it is rare to see a rank 3 wizard at 14 years old, there are still many of them!" Duke Albert said on the side.
"The prestigious Duke Albert, what if I add this?" Abel said. A golden light flashed, and a golden combat qi armor appeared on his body.
"My god, what am I seeing!" Duke Albert yelled in disbelief at the combat qi armor on Abel.
"Abel, you have shocked me. A 14 year old Knight captain. I can tell you with certainty that no one has surpassed you before. You have passed this question!" Grand Duke Edwina nodded with a smile.
"One last question. Lorraine will go into retreat training for 20 years starting tomorrow. Can you wait for her?" Grand Duke Edwina asked with a smile.
At this point, Grand Duke Edwina was very satisfied with Abel. Other than the fact that Abel was not an elf, everything else about him was perfect. He truly liked Lorraine, and he was very confident in himself. As long as he didn't die young, he would become a powerful elite in the Holy Continent.
"Yes, I can wait!" Abel said with 100% certainty. Although he was surprised that Lorraine would go into retreat training for 20 years as soon as she came back, he guessed that this might be a punishment for Lorraine leaving without permission. To elves, 20 years was just a short period of time.
Twenty years was longer than he expected, but he could use this time to increase his strength. He didn't need to be hunted down because of his lack of strength, and Loraine had to run away with him.
Duke Albert explained, "Loraine is going into seclusion after dinner. Something big almost happened when she left. The older generation of the royal family is very angry. They want Loraine to go into seclusion and cultivate with them. She can only come out when she has the ability to protect herself."
"Can I talk to Lorraine for a bit?" Abel heard that Lorraine was going into retreat training after dinner, so he quickly asked Grand Duke Edwina and Duke Albert.
"Of course, you can go now." Before Grand Duke Edwina could say anything, Duke Albert waved his hand and said to Abel.
