In the treehouse, Grandia stared at Twain fiercely.
"Why did you break into my room?!"
Tang En, who was sitting at the table and making tea by himself, smiled. "Do elves have the custom of leaving their guests outside?"
"No," Grandia said stiffly. "But I don't think you're a guest. As a citizen of the Goddess, she will never forgive your rudeness to me!"
"Unfortunately, I'm not a believer of the Goddess."
"An untrustworthy person." Grandia sneered. "No wonder you act so recklessly."
Tang En grinned. "Faith is used to restrain oneself, not others."
Grandia pushed the door open. "Get out!"
"No."
Looking at the shameless Tang En, Grandia roared in exasperation, "Fine! Then I'll go out, okay?! "
Brian nodded. "Yes, remember to close the door."
Tang En waved his hand. "Have a safe trip. I won't see you out."
"…"
Grandia's face turned red with anger. She slammed the door and left.
She dared to swear that she had lived for more than a hundred years, and this was the first time she had seen such a thick-skinned human!
"Big brother, aren't you going a little overboard?"
"Before you say I'm going overboard, put down her wine barrel first."
"Ahem, I'm just curious, curious … Speaking of which, we're occupying someone's house in the middle of the night and even chasing a little girl out. It feels like we're robbers …"
"You can't be soft-hearted when dealing with a love rival."
Brian was stunned. "S-love rival?!"
"Sleep. The bed is mine. Find your own place."
Tang En directly occupied Grandia's bed. He had to admit that although the elves' treehouse was filled with the scent of nature, the bed that they weaved using plant fibers, vines, and leaves was very soft and comfortable. It also emitted a natural fragrance.
Yes, it's a natural fragrance. It's definitely not Grandia's scent … Probably.
Grandia, who had left, originally wanted to stay at Elder Sharon's place for the night, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Why?!
This is my house!
Why does he have to stay at my house while I have to go to Elder Sharon's place?!
Absolutely not — that's right! I'm just unwilling. I'm not afraid of Elder Sharon!
Grandia hid at the door and waited for a while. After giving herself enough courage, she went back into the house. When she saw Tang En sleeping soundly on her bed, Grandia was so angry that her nose almost became crooked.
Nola floated up in a daze. "Huh? Why are you back? "
"Of course it's because I can't accept it!"
Grandia gritted her teeth, steeled her heart, and squeezed onto the bed.
Tang En, who was lying inside, was speechless. He had already woken up when Grandia entered the room, but he did not expect her to come over and snatch the bed from him.
The elf girl's soft body and sweet scent made it hard for Tang En, who claimed to be an elf lover, to control himself, but …
When Tang En recalled that the bearded Brian was also in the room, all kinds of messy thoughts immediately disappeared.
The night passed.
As soon as Tang En woke up, he felt that something was wrong, and his chest felt stuffy.
He looked down and realized that Grandia had unknowingly burrowed into his arms. Her head was pillowed on his chest, and her entire body was lying on top of him. Grandia, who was sleeping soundly, did not seem to notice at all.
As soon as Tang En moved, Grandia also woke up. She looked at Tang En in confusion for a moment before she suddenly snorted and proudly said, "Don't ever think of monopolizing my bed!"
Tang En: "…"
No matter how he interpreted it, it was ambiguous.
After a simple wash up and breakfast, Tang En and Brian decided to visit Elder Sharon together, and Grandia followed along.
"Elder Sharon."
After seeing Elder Sharon, Grandia, who had always been very independent, suddenly became much more restrained, which surprised Tang En very much.
Although it was often said that evil people needed to be dealt with by evil people, this Elder Sharon was just a gentle and benevolent female elf. Why was Grandia so afraid of her?
"Grandia, why didn't you come to find me last night?"
"Because it was too late …"
"Why did you go out on your own yesterday? Did you forget our rules? "
"No, no …"
"Come to my place tonight. I think we need to have a chat."
Grandia exclaimed, "No!"
"Hmm?"
"I, I mean, too, too good …"
Grandia rolled her eyes and made up her mind to run away.
Elder Sharon looked at Tang En and Brian. "Hello, dear elf friends, and … honorable guests."
"Hello, Sharon."
Nola happily responded to her greeting. "This is my sit … Yes, my friend, Tang En! And Brian! As you can see, humans and dwarves. "
"Yes, I already know that."
Sharon glanced at the hair ornament in front of Tang En's chest, and her smile became gentler. "I hope you had a good rest last night. This child, Grandia … Yes, she's a little special."
We can see it even without you saying it …
"She got lost in a beast tide when she was young and was picked up and raised by a human female —"
Grandia immediately interjected, "Elder Sharon! I said she's my mother! "
"Yes, she only returned to us after her human mother returned to the embrace of the Goddess, so she's different from us. I hope she didn't neglect the two of you."
She was actually an elf who was raised by humans …
Elf body, human heart, tsundere, and awkward.
No wonder her personality was so distorted and she had strong lesbian tendencies. Was it because she was too attached to her mother, so her personality was distorted?
But since she was raised by humans, then her moral values should be similar to humans, right? In other words … she was deliberately acting dumb when she was tied up?
Tang En subconsciously looked at Grandia.
"Hmph!"
Noticing Tang En's gaze, Grandia snorted coldly and turned her face away.
"Don't worry, we had a great time last night."
Tang En laughed heartily. "We wanted to go to the Emerald Corolla to meet Her Majesty the Queen, so we took a detour through Salamar. It's actually rude of us to intrude on your life."
"Meeting Her Majesty the Queen? … Well, if it's the three of you, there shouldn't be a problem. Perhaps you can even help Her Majesty the Queen. "
Sharon wasn't worried about their intentions. One was a fairy, one was a dwarf, and one was Aiguin's human friend. If she couldn't trust them, then there was probably no one in this world who could be trusted.
"Help?"
Tang En frowned. "What happened?"
"It's not a big deal …" Sharon smiled.
"Because Her Majesty the Queen has been having a headache because the population has stopped increasing. Perhaps, as a non-human race, you can help Her Majesty think of a solution."
Tang En was dumbfounded. The population has stopped increasing, and it's not a big deal?! Just how insensitive were they?!
As we all know, the population of the elves was already small, and now it has stopped increasing. This is simply a critical matter of the extinction of the entire race, and she actually said it's "not a big deal"!
Are the nerves of the elves made of steel?
After understanding the situation, Tang En suddenly changed the topic and asked, "Elder Sharon, I don't know if you know that just northeast of Salamar, outside the Emerald Forest, there is a human town called Ellington?"
"Ellington? I have some impression of it. Town? Isn't that a small village? "
Tang En: "…"
Facing Elder Sharon's doubts, Tang En was speechless.
"Actually, I'm now the lord of Ellington. I'm now vigorously developing Ellington. It's not what it used to be."
"So you're still a human lord. Well, that's good."
"Ahem, in my territory, the dwarves like Brian and the gnomes are now building cities together and living very happily."
"Oh? Even the dwarves and gnomes are living in your territory? "
Elder Sharon was really a little surprised. "That's really good. There aren't many humans like you."
Seeing that Elder Sharon still hadn't gotten the point, Tang En could only get straight to the point. "Actually, Elder Sharon, I'm very optimistic about the specialties of my elven friends, so I want to hire … hire some elven friends to work in my territory."
"But we don't have any specialties."
Elder Sharon didn't seem to understand Tang En's idea.
"No, it's just that you haven't noticed. The elves I want to hire are druid priests. Of course, even if they're not druids, elves who don't have the ability to fight and cast spells will do. As long as they're obsessed with art and proficient in painting, weaving, carving, and so on."
Tang En waved his hand. "I won't refuse anyone who is willing to work and has a skill."
"That's good."
Sharon nodded. "But I can't decide on the matter of working in human territory. I need the queen's permission."
"I see …"
"Yes, it's the same even if you're Aiguin's friend."
"It seems that I have to find a way to solve Her Majesty's problem and then hire them after getting her permission."
"Yes."
Elder Sharon nodded very frankly. "I'm very supportive of you. If you can get permission, I can help you contact people who are willing to go outside to experience life."
Tang En was overjoyed. "Thank you so much!"
After obtaining some more information from Elder Sharon, Tang En, Nola, and Brian bade farewell to Elder Sharon and continued to set off in the southwest direction.
As soon as Tang En and the others left Salamar, a sneaky figure also quietly left Salamar and followed them into the forest.
After walking for a short distance, Tang En stopped. "This is far enough. Come out."
Brian was stunned. "Who are you talking to?"
"Humph! You actually found me. It seems that I underestimated you! "
Grandia snorted and walked out of the forest.
"Why are you following us?"
"Aren't you going to the Emerald Corolla? You need an elf to lead the way. "
"Oh … But we're planning to fly there."
"…"
Grandia froze.
