Baiyi was taken aback by the Fairy Walker's words. 'How did my cheap wife become a quack?' Before Baiyi could ask, the Fairy Walker explained, "I'm not sure if Grandfather Tree has other considerations, but I do know that anything that could make the entire Forest Ocean uneasy must be a terrible disaster. If we don't do anything about it, it's going to be a massacre. I'm sure you don't want to see that happen, do you, my dear?"
Baiyi pondered for a moment before he asked, "Is it really that serious?"
"See? You didn't deny what I said. Instead, you're concerned about the severity of the situation. My dear, I really do know you!" The Fairy Walker said with a hint of a smile.
Baiyi did not comment on that. Just as the Fairy Walker had said, if a disaster similar to the one that happened in Gouve was happening right before his eyes, he would not be able to stand by and do nothing. The Fairy Walker knew him very well. After all, they had exchanged memories, and this could be considered as the best way to get to know each other.
"But you don't have to worry too much about it, my dear. We'll just stick to your original plan," the Fairy Walker said as she gently held his arm. "Didn't Grandfather Tree say that your Gnosis has not faded? Your 'Heart of Nature' hasn't faded, so just let it be. "
"Err … I don't think these two things mean the same thing, right?" Baiyi replied, amused.
"I may not know much about druids, but I do know that the Gnosis does not only refer to the flowers and grasses of nature," the Fairy Walker said confidently. "If you can't even act naturally, how can you have the Heart of Nature?" the Elf said with certainty.
'So, my cheap wife has turned into a quack,' Baiyi thought to himself. However, the Fairy Walker's words did make him care about the metaphysical concept he had. On the way back to the village, Baiyi poked the Eighth Walker, trying to discuss the matter with it.
Baiyi explained the situation to the Eighth Walker in a simple manner, as well as the questions he had in his mind. Then, he waited patiently for the Eighth Walker's reply. After he had followed the Fairy Walker all the way back to Eom Village, the Eighth Walker sent him a message.
“？”
'Did it not hear what I said just now?' Baiyi was rendered speechless by the Sloth's communication style. Left with no other choice, he repeated what he had said before and walked with the Fairy Walker to the group of fairies who were already waiting at the entrance of the village.
Eom Village was a traditional elven village, and their village looked very traditional. At first glance, there were no traces of human buildings, only a few towering trees, and tree houses of various sizes distributed on the trunks and branches of these trees, basically maintaining the most primitive appearance. If one was a little further away, it would be impossible to tell that this was actually a village.
Standing at the forefront of the group of elves was an elderly elf whose hair and beard were completely white. He looked as old as a withered tree. With the thousands of years that elves lived, their lifespan was comparable to that of dragons. To be able to look this old, he must have really lived for a very, very long time. The long wooden walking stick in his hand was proof of his identity. He was the Elder of Eom Village, which was similar to the Village Chief.
However, the Fairy Walker, who was standing beside Vance, seemed to have recognized something from the old man's bark-like face. The Fairy Walker ran over excitedly and grabbed the old man's shoulder. "Vance! You're still alive?!"
"B-B-Big Sis! It's really you!" The dignified old elf spoke in a choked voice, and even used a form of address that exceeded everyone's expectations.
Thus, a reasonable scene of recognizing one's kin unfolded.
The old elf was one of the naughty kids who had been following the elves around! Because he was the youngest, he was often bullied by the elves, who used to order him around in the name of 'Big Sis'. He was often the scapegoat of the elves.
However, neither of them had expected that their childhood friends would be reunited after thousands of years, and in such a way, no less.
Of course, such a thing could only happen to elves with long lifespans.
Then, the old fairy invited them into the village. The two archers, who had interacted with Baiyi's group before, stared at them and whispered to each other from time to time. They could vaguely make out something like this:
"Is this the Wind from two generations ago? No wonder she's so good at archery … But how did she end up like this? "
"She's … a human Soul Armature, isn't she? I've seen her in the village before, and they told me that only the most powerful could be reborn like this. She's said to be the strongest Wind in the village's history, right? So, it's no surprise that she returned in this state, right? "
"But when I was little, my grandpa mentioned that she wasn't very popular in the village. He even scolded me when I was disobedient, but when I asked him about it, he refused to tell me. Instead, he gave me a guilty look. "
"I think I heard Mr. Bear mention it before. It said that she always stole its winter rations when she was young, causing it to starve until it woke up. But if she's the Wind's Heir, why would she do such a thing?"
"I've told the Mythological Beasts about her return, but when the Mythological Beasts of this generation heard her name, they looked a little weird. They looked excited and scared at the same time. I've never seen a Mythological Beast lose its composure like that. "
It was not hard to tell from the gossips that the younger generation of fairies did not know much about the Fairy Walker's feats in the past, and they were very curious about her. Unfortunately, the Fairy Walker did not have the time to hold a meet-and-greet with her fans. Under the Elder's lead, the Fairy Walker dragged Baiyi into the Elder's hut, which was located at the top of a large tree.
The elves, whose curiosity was piqued, immediately surrounded the students and asked them questions. The scene almost scared Little Mia.
More importantly, the elves that surrounded them were all good-looking. Be it male or female, they were all good-looking. For a moment, they were dazzled by their beauty.
However, the awkward thing was that the young elves were speaking in the Fairy Tongue, while Mia only knew the common tongue. After a long conversation, they reverted to the most primitive form of hand gestures.
Little Mia waved her pale hands and introduced herself to the group of good-looking elves. She looked a little nervous, but she was more excited than anything else.
In contrast, Baiyi, who had followed the Fairy Walker into the Elder's hut, was also a little nervous. The Fairy Walker, who looked old enough to be everyone's grandpa, was prostrating in front of the two of them in an 'orz' position, begging for forgiveness.
"In fact, not long after you left, everyone regretted it … At that time, Grandpa Elder kept sighing and sighing, thinking that we were too selfish, abandoning you, a clansman, and banishing you … After hearing the news of your disappearance, the sense of guilt grew heavier … We always said that no matter what difficulties there are, we can always overcome them together … but at that time, we broke our promise."
"Many of us never forgave ourselves, like me, my father, and my grandfather. Luckily, you're here now, so I can say these words to you."
The Fairy Elder's sincere words made Baiyi feel a sense of heaviness.
"It's okay," the Fairy Walker said generously. The elf said generously and stretched out her hand to help the elder up. "To be able to go out and see the outside world and meet many interesting people and things is also my fortune. I've never hated you."
Her words made the Elder burst into tears. The only flaw was that the Fairy Walker's current body was a militia armor, so she did not have the gentle smile of a healer.
The two of them continued to chat about their daily lives, talking about their experiences after they parted ways, leaving Baiyi at the side. He did not mind it at all. At times like this, he wanted to let them have a good chat.
At the end of the conversation, Baiyi was not sure if the knot in the Elder's heart had been untied. Suddenly, he turned his attention to himself and said, "Looks like you've found a reliable partner, Big Sis. This is something worth celebrating."
"That's right! He's the best man in the world. He's strong and gentle, and he's able to accept everything about me. He's even willing to take on my fate. From then on, I've decided to be with him," the Fairy Walker said happily. Baiyi, who was standing beside her, felt a little embarrassed.
To be honest, if he had known that the Fairy Walker's fate was like this, he would not have said those words.
"His only flaw is that there are too many girls around him, and he can't make up his mind …" The Fairy Walker continued to complain to her family.
The Elder's gaze on Baiyi became sharp, as if he was looking at Chen Shimei. He said earnestly, "Young man, hesitation will cause you to miss out on a lot of happiness. Listen to me, Big Sis, a girl like her was the dream girl of all the children in the village!"
Baiyi was speechless. He really wanted to tell the Elder, 'Based on my age, I should be your grandfather.'
Left with no choice, Baiyi pulled the Fairy Walker to his side and whispered something in her ear. He wanted her to ask about the Caudillo Butterfly or the Great Druid.
The Fairy Walker nodded obediently. She finally managed to steer the conversation to the main topic. First, she asked about the Caudillo Butterfly.
