"Let's … go out." Han Jin paused. "This is a matter of etiquette." Han Jin forced himself to shift the topic to etiquette, which was somewhat hypocritical.
Yalina immediately understood Han Jin's intention. Her eyelids drooped slightly, and after a moment, a smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth. Yalina then said softly, "Okay." She had been preparing for this day for a long time. No matter how she felt, she remembered what she had said to make Han Jin happy. Moreover, the customs of the elves and humans were different. Her mother, Tifany, had always been her role model. Therefore, although she felt a little disappointed and lost, she could accept this result.
The moment Han Jin and Yalina stepped onto the deck, the surroundings gradually became quiet. Gao Bin, whose back was facing the ladder, sensed the change and slowly turned his head, his eyes falling on Yalina.
"Gao Bin, let me introduce you. This is Yalina," Han Jin said softly.
"Hello." Gao Bin smiled.
"Hello." Yalina's eyes were a little panicked. She deliberately avoided Gao Bin's gaze, but after a moment, she bravely raised her head and looked directly at Gao Bin.
Gao Bin was not convinced. He didn't believe that there was any woman who could be compared to Sunier. He thought that it was because she was willing to sacrifice herself for Han Jin that made Han Jin feel guilty and finally accepted her. However, the moment he saw Yalina's face, he couldn't help but be stunned. The scrutinizing look in his eyes turned into amazement.
Her white, smooth, pure and flawless skin gave people a feeling that it could be broken by the slightest touch. Her pair of big, curved eyes were clear and bright. Her extremely long eyelashes looked lovely and delicate. Her thin lips were pursed into a line, like an unsheathed sword, with a valiant aura. She was a little shorter than Sunier, but her figure was exquisite and delicate. Hidden in her tender beauty was a little bit delicate, which made people feel tender to her. She was very attractive.
Even from the perspective of the picky elves, Yalina was a stunning beauty!
"Brother, I really admire you!" Gao Bin sighed.
Gao Bin was a man of character. Because of the series of mistakes made by Ampudula and Prudence, all the tragic consequences were caused. What was the truth? Denial and resistance could not change anything. Why should he be as annoying as a fly? He might as well admit it openly. Moreover, if he couldn't do it himself, he didn't have the right to ask others to do it. He couldn't forget the pain and struggle in his heart at that time. Moreover, Yalina's strength, family background, appearance, and her contribution to Han Jin all proved that she was a woman worth cherishing.
As soon as Gao Bin's words left his mouth, the atmosphere suddenly became lively. Everyone on the ship secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were also worried that Gao Bin would deliberately make things difficult for Yalina or even attack her verbally. However, what they feared did not happen.
"Gao Bin, come and sit. What's there to talk about with those kids?" Guevara laughed and said, "Come, come, I've admired you for a long time. When I was young, I even learned from your battles. Speaking of which … I really envy you elves. You're still so young, but I'm already old."
Morrisons and the others looked at each other. Kid? This title made them very uncomfortable, but they could only listen. On the God of War, only Guevara had the right to take advantage of his seniority. Even Majordomo Gail could not.
"Old? I don't think you're old at all. " Gao Bin laughed. Of course, he knew that Guevara was returning the favor. He reached out and patted Morrisons' shoulder affectionately, then stood up and walked towards Guevara.
Yalina looked at Han Jin in surprise. That's it? Just a greeting?
Han Jin smiled as he held Yalina's hand and sat beside her. In fact, he was also relieved. If Gao Bin was an elf who pestered him endlessly, he would have a huge headache. Because of Sunier, he could not retaliate and could only endure silently. However, if he endured for too long, there would be a huge change in the future due to his state of mind. He did not want that to happen.
During the conversation at the banquet, both sides held back and only talked about some trivial matters. At this moment, Gao Bin had already won everyone's favor. This time, the conversation was much more in-depth.
The atmosphere at Guevara and Gao Bin's table was the most lively. They talked about the war, various forces, and even Dragon City and Dragon Realm. Guevara and Gao Bin seemed to be very agreeable. In the end, Guevara could not help but sigh. "Gao Bin, if you hadn't left Wild Willow City, I would never have cooperated with Zagunéd!"
"Zagunéd? I've heard of him. " Gao Bin's expression was slightly gloomy. Hazel later worked for Zagunéd, so when Zagunéd was mentioned, he would naturally think of Hazel.
"Dismark is good at defending, but not aggressive enough. Wild Willow City is the same. Although Zagunéd's style is cruel and extreme, he knows how to be aggressive. He is the only person I can choose to cooperate with." Guevara sighed again. "Sigh … this is fate!"
"Don't be dissatisfied." Léger finally found a chance to take revenge. He also did not want to be treated like a child. "Now, where is Zagunéd? Where is Dismark? What about you? "
Guevara was stunned and glared at Léger. However, he did not refute. In fact, although he was the first person to be eliminated, he could still freely point out the situation here. Zagunéd and Dismark had already turned into ashes.
"This may not be a bad thing." Majordomo Gail said with a smile, then lowered his voice. "If you and Gao Bin cooperate and defeat Dismark and Zagunéd, we may not be able to witness the rise of a genius."
"Genius?" Guevara's gaze swept across Han Jin and he was speechless. Majordomo Gail was right. If he could cooperate with Gao Bin, the surrounding area would have already become their territory. Perhaps there would be a corresponding peace. Then, Han Jin would not have a stage that he could not not lack.
"So, accept it. What fate gives us may not be a bad thing."
"Don't talk to me about this kind of mushy logic. I know it better than you," Guevara said unhappily.
"Yes, I know you do." Majordomo Gail suddenly thought of something and sighed. "But not everyone does."
"What are you trying to say?" Guevara frowned.
"The Holy See was attacked, and Jeddes' reaction … was a little out of control." Majordomo Gail said in a low voice. He looked a little worried. The important Great Gravity Magic Scroll was obtained by Han Jin from Grand Duke Solomon through him. So, he vaguely understood that all of this was Han Jin's doing. However, he believed in Solomon's judgment. He also believed that Han Jin must have his own reasons for doing this. He would not harm Jeddes for no reason.
"He will understand," Guevara said softly. His expression was as worried as Majordomo Gail's.
"Understand?" Majordomo Gail was stunned and said in surprise, "You know?" He just said that Jeddes' reaction was a little out of control. He hinted that Guevara should find a chance to talk to Jeddes and persuade him. Who knew that Guevara would say that he would understand? The Holy See was attacked. What was there to understand?
Only then did Guevara realize that he had unknowingly revealed a secret. Of course, other than Majordomo Gail, most people would not be able to grasp the real content from just a few words. Majordomo Gail's question was very strange. Guevara could not help but ask in a low voice, "You know too?"
Majordomo Gail nodded. The two of them looked at each other for a moment and smiled.
"You have to believe in him." Gao Bin put away his habitual cynical smile and said solemnly, "He is not a person who would betray his friends." When Gao Bin returned to Wild Willow City, he had always paid attention to Han Jin. He did everything he could to gather information about Han Jin. Later, Sunier came from Wild Willow City to the camp. After a careful conversation, Gao Bin finally understood Han Jin's experience like the back of his hand. Han Jin had faced huge threats several times and fought to the death to protect his friends. Such a person would not deliberately hurt friends that he could trust. The fact that he could build trust with Han Jin in such a short time was directly related to his judgment.
"You know too?" Majordomo Gail and Guevara asked at the same time.
Gao Bin was stunned for a moment and nodded silently.
The three of them kept looking at each other's faces. It was a very strange feeling to keep a top secret together. It made their relationship and trust each other even more.
"This kid …" Guevara smiled bitterly, "Doesn't he know? If something goes wrong, someone will die! " When many people knew a secret, it was inevitable that it would be leaked. Even if they could keep their mouths shut, if they were not careful when interacting with Jeddes, it was very likely that Jeddes would find out. Jeddes was definitely not a fool!
"He should have his own confidence," Majordomo Gail said. When he first came in contact with Han Jin, he was able to figure out Han Jin's situation. He could even determine what Han Jin wanted to do and what he would do. However, Han Jin had been growing at an astonishing speed. Now, he could not see anything. He could only guess, or rather, trust. He also knew that this kind of trust was more or less blind. However, facing an unfathomable lord, this was his only choice, just like facing Grand Duke Solomon.
"I know what his confidence is." Guevara chuckled.
"What is it?" Majordomo Gail picked up his teacup as if nothing had happened, as if he did not care about this question.
"I'm not telling you."
Majordomo Gail glanced at Guevara with contempt. He knew that this would be the result, so he acted as if nothing had happened just now to protect his dignity.
"Do you guys think that the Thunder Titan's hearing is very sharp?" Guevara suddenly changed the topic.
Majordomo Gail and Gao Bin could not help but look at Dominique. Dominique was sitting by the side of the ship, looking up at the bright night sky with a relaxed expression. She often sat like this, so everyone was already used to it.
"Probably not as good as us elves," Gao Bin said.
"Dominique is a beauty. She became a Thunder Titan at such a young age. Her future is limitless." Guevara said, "Who do you think she will fall in love with?"
"It won't be Raphael," Majordomo Gail said.
"It definitely won't be Raphael," Gao Bin added.
Majordomo Gail and Gao Bin looked at each other. They both understood what each other meant. Stop messing around! For various reasons, Sunier might accept Yalina, but she would definitely not accept anyone else. When that time came, who knew what would happen?
"Why?" Guevara did not seem to understand.
"Nonsense!" Majordomo Gail said impatiently. "Dominique is so tall. She's not a good match for Han Jin."
"Don't forget, the stronger a Thunder Titan is, the shorter their body will be!"
"What do you mean?" Majordomo Gail was really angry. Gao Bin also looked at Guevara with dissatisfaction. On this issue, they had enough reasons to be on the same side.
"She heard it!" Guevara said.
Majordomo Gail and Gao Bin turned their heads to look. Sure enough, the carefree look on Dominguez's face was gone. She looked very embarrassed, and she didn't know where to look. She looked around in panic, and her face was covered with a blush.
"Dominique!" Majordomo Gail shouted. He already understood what Guevara meant. Dominique had most likely heard their conversation. As for whether she understood what they were talking about, only Dominique knew.
Domine glared at Majordomo Gail, then suddenly stood up and jumped off the ship. She landed heavily on the ground with a thud, then strode off into the distance.
"She won't talk nonsense, right?" Gao Bin was a little worried.
"She won't." Guevara laughed and said, "What I said just now was just a joke. You don't have to take it to heart. I know Raphael too well. If it weren't for the sudden attack of the elves and the news that Sunier and Prudence were married, with his relationship with Sunier, he would never accept Yalina."
Gao Bin sighed softly, and Majordomo Gail was a little annoyed. The change in their attitudes was enough to prove that the world was unpredictable. Just now, Majordomo Gail and Gao Bin were on the same side, but Guevara's words instantly disintegrated their unified camp.
However, the one with the best hearing was not Dominique, but Han Jin. When he heard the conversation between Guevara and the others, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only pretend that he didn't hear anything.
As the night grew darker, the people on the deck returned to their rooms one after another. Yalina once again entered Han Jin's magic lab. In fact, ever since she had been recognized by Han Jin and everyone else, her desire to improve herself had become weaker and weaker. Although she still meditated, read magic books, and entered the lab frequently, compared to her previous efforts, there was still a huge gap between what she had done before. When she was young, she wanted to be praised by her father. This was her biggest motivation. Now, she was satisfied with everything. It was said that a woman's home was the grave of a hero. In fact, a woman's will would also be weakened by happiness.
However, Yalina finally knew that Sunier had successfully activated the Mark of God. She had become the third strongest elf after Gao Bin and Prudence. Although Sunier's combat experience might not be as good as Gao Bin and Prudence, her strength was undeniable.
This news was like a booster to Yalina's confidence. She didn't like fighting, but she would never allow herself to be outdone by Sunier. Han Jin had opened the 'magic laboratory' for her, which gave her enough confidence. Yalina returned to her old days, seizing every minute and second to practice.
Gao Bin still didn't leave. Han Jin felt that Gao Bin seemed to have something to say to him. Since he brought Gao Bin onto the God of War, he had to personally send him off. Therefore, he didn't leave and just waited quietly.
There were fewer and fewer people on the deck. After Han Jin left, besides the magicians and mountain warriors on night duty, only Han Jin was left. Gao Bin left his seat and slowly walked to the opposite side of Han Jin.
"I've always been clear about public and private matters." Gao Bin smiled. "But …"
"I know." Han Jin also smiled. "But I feel that you've separated public and private matters too clearly. Therefore, you can't see things that you should be able to see clearly."
"What do you mean?" Gao Bin asked in surprise.
"Nothing. You'll understand in the future." Han Jin said slowly. He was talking about Lydia. Almost everyone with a certain level of observation could see Lydia's feelings for Gao Bin after interacting with Gao Bin and Lydia for a period of time. Only Gao Bin couldn't see anything. This could only mean that Gao Bin had separated public and private matters too clearly. Therefore, he treated Lydia's concern for him, trust for him, and kindness for him as the intimacy between comrades. However, Lydia's face was disfigured and she was ashamed of her inferiority. Therefore, she refused to show her feelings clearly. If no one pointed it out, the two elves would probably remain the same even after a hundred years.
"You … Why did you only say half of what you wanted to say?!" Gao Bin was very dissatisfied. "Can't you say it now?"
"Can't say it," Han Jin said lightly.
"Why?" Gao Bin was even more dissatisfied.
"It's not time yet."
"You …" Gao Bin turned around helplessly and stroked the beard on his chin thoughtfully. He was an elf who was good at reflecting. Unfortunately, after reflecting for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what he should have seen.
"Oh right, what did you want to say just now?" Han Jin changed the topic.
"I shouldn't talk about public matters with you here, but I really can't help it." Gao Bin sat up straight and said slowly. "When do we start dealing with the orcs?"
"The orcs are still very strong. If we attack now, we will also suffer great losses." Han Jin said.
"I'm not afraid!" Gao Bin's tone was full of hatred.
"This is not a matter of whether you're afraid or not. Since we've already won, why should we pay an unnecessary price?" Han Jin thought for a moment. "We should have news in three to five days."
"Three to five days? So you can't make the decision yourself? "Gao Bin was shocked.

Facts always speak louder than words. Of course, the monthly votes are the most meaningful measuring stick. Looking at the dismal number of subscriptions now, perhaps the only way to survive is to completely follow the mainstream. The outline of this book is about sixty thousand words. It's too complete.
