Volume 1 Chapter 95 Anecdotes of the Wilderness (6)
The moment he turned around, Thor didn't see what was behind him, but from the touch of the long sword in his hand, he knew that he hadn't hit anything.
Without hesitation, Thor flicked his sword back and forth with two more sweeps.
Still missed, but this time he saw it very clearly, not so much as not hitting it, but the blade piercing directly through her body, as if there was no entity that didn't exist.
It's a woman, well, at least it seems. Strangely enough, she was not a living human, but a silhouette of a woman made of beams of light, emitting a glimmer of light.
It's not a dazzling brilliance, but an extremely faint one that is inferior to the glow of fireflies. If you don't look closely in the dark, you won't be able to tell what it is at first glance, even if you notice her.
The thought of this being a ghost immediately crossed Thor in his mind.
At this moment, she was raising her hand to cover her eyes, as if she had just seen some unsightly picture.
To be precise, her eyes are actually closed, and Thor is eager to ask her, is it okay that your hands are transparent, and what is the point of you covering them there?
"What are you...... Who?" Thor was holding his sword, and was about to ask what you were, but it sounded like an insult. Before figuring out what the other party is, it's best not to be the first to show hostility, so halfway through the conversation, he stubbornly turned to the word whom.
"Ah~!" she just let go of her hand when she heard Thor's question, and she screamed again and covered it again.
That crisp voice sounded like a ...... Girlish?
Well, a guy who is not a human or a ghost can still be shy, Sol turned around and began to put on his pants speechlessly.
"Tell me, who the hell are you?" finished dressing, and Thor stood aside with his sword in hand.
"I'm a water elf, you can call me Sylvana. The girl put her hand down and looked at Thor in reply.
Her phantom body became a little more solid, and her whole body glowed with a light blue light, as if she had skin. But it didn't work, because she didn't have a gaze, she looked like a glowing sculpture, and her whole person was devoid of the agility of a creature.
Listening to Sylvana's answer, Thor's eyes blinked, the water elf?
He knew these four words apart, such as the word elves, their pointed ears, handsome appearances, and many complicated classifications such as forest elves, dark elves, and blood elves during the Old Kingdom.
They call themselves "sons of the forest", dwarves call them 'pointy-eared monsters', and in the human world, men sometimes use the word 'elf' to describe a woman's style.
But the 'water spirits,' the spirits in the water? or the spirits born of water? What is that?
As if sensing Thor's doubts, the girl stretched out her hand to the lake beside her.
"I was born into the water element, an aggregate of the elements, and I have lived alone in this lake for thousands of years. After the Dark Calendar, few people have come to this lake again, and you are the first human I have tried to come into contact with. ”
Elemental Aggregate?Thor then noticed that her whole body was floating, no wonder there was no sound of walking. No, let alone the sound of walking, it is estimated that even if she rolls on the ground, she will not even have a little dust.
The guy who didn't die Claude before scared himself silently once, these damn guys, one by one, always like to quietly touch the back of others, can't they walk well?
Also, the lake has been around for thousands of years? I'm afraid that the dry season will dry up after two or three years? Although Saul was skeptical, he was neither a witness to this long topographical evolution, nor was he able to corroborate it.
"According to you, the elements of magic, such as wind, fire, and light, also have their own corresponding spirits, why have I never seen or heard of them?"
"Perhaps, I don't know much about the world because I can't leave this lake. Siffana lowered her head, her voice a little depressed.
Tut... Tsk! Can't live without? Living alone for thousands of years? That's really ...... Lonely enough.
"It's an honor to listen to your story of twists and turns. With that, Thor turned and left.
"Where are you going?" asked Sylvana.
"Go home. As a grave keeper, I have to repair the cemetery every day, clear the weeds, and kick the skeletons, I'm very busy, okay!"
"Can you play with me for a while? Well, I mean talk to me, talk. Sevana pleaded.
Thor turned back and grinned.
"You think beautifully! You peek at me taking a shower, forget it, you peek at me and scold me for being shameless, and I can bear it, but you quietly touch my back and scare my pants off, which is unbearable. ”
"You ......" Savana was a little shocked, but she didn't know how to express her feelings.
"If you talk to me, I'll tell you a secret. Seeing that Thor was about to run away, Sylvana had no choice but to throw new chips.
Secret?Thor was actually not interested, he was more wary in his heart, and the sheep didn't even have grass to eat without putting on wolf skins these days. Still, Thor paused and walked back with great interest.
"You're actually trying to ask me about the axe, right?"
"Axe, what axe?" Sevana was inexplicable.
"I brought a wood-chopping axe with me today and accidentally fell into the lake, and you picked it up. ”
"Then you ran out and asked me if I had dropped the gold axe, and I denied it, and I denied it if it was a silver axe, and finally you asked me if it was an iron axe, and I nodded. Eventually, you were impressed by my honesty and prepared to give me all three axes. ”
"You liar, I've been watching you, and you didn't bring any axes with you today. "Siffana gets straight to the truth.
Observation? That's another damn word.
Creet's leprechaun had used the word peeking too, and it meant something about the same, each time making Thor feel like a monkey dancing in the wilderness, overshadowed by a dark gaze.
Eventually, Saul's face darkened.
"I'll be blunt, I suspect that you are actually a drowning ghost, who made up his own tragic life story and ran out to harm the world. Even if what you say is true, then you're a thousand-year-old monster, well, I should say an old woman. ”
"You...... I'm angry!" Savana clenched two small fists, and her whole body trembled.
She frightened Thor like this, since she was not embarrassed by the revelation of the conspiracy, then what she said might be true, then it would be unwise to take the initiative to provoke a magical creature.
"Since you're an elemental aggregate, you should belong to a magical creature, right?" asked Thor with some humility.
"In your human terms, it should be. Sevana's tone was a little unkind.
"Aren't you very powerful, I mean, if you encounter an enemy in the wilderness, you can just throw two spells at you to chase them away?" Thor continued to probe.
"No, they can't see me at all, unless I want them to see me. And I can't use the elemental power of the real world, so I can't do any magic. ”
"That means that if you encounter an enemy, you can only make them invisible to you, but you can't get rid of them, right?"
"In theory, that's true. Sylvana replied after a moment's thought.
"Huh~!Since you can't help me, let's go back to the topic just now, how do I know if you are an old woman who has been running out for hundreds of thousands of years to harm people, and deliberately pretending to be a girl. Thor instantly regained his usual composure.
"Ah~!" Sevana, the water elf, was completely shocked and threw herself at Thor desperately. She didn't know if all humans were like this, or if it was just Thor.
However, as she said herself, she couldn't do anything, and after she threw herself out, the whole person pierced directly through Thor's body. Thor took it all in stride with a smile on his face, not even a single hair was blown up.
"I ...... I kid you not, I'm really a water elf. "Siffana, who has nothing to do, is a little aggrieved.
"Don't move. Thor suddenly raised his hand.
Sevana has the appearance of a girl, but she has no eyes and is not wearing anything on her body. The lower body starts from the waist to look like a fishtail, but the end of the fishtail is a few fluffy tails, which looks a little strange.
Thor raised his hand and pressed it against Sylvana's bare chest.
"Ah......h What are you doing, shameless and indecent!" Siffana screamed and clutched her chest.
"Necessary verification. Saul replied.
"Necessary...... Verify!?" Savana looked confused, a little confused.
"Yes, even though you can let me see you and hear your voice, I still subconsciously think that you don't exist. So I raised my hand, and although I didn't touch anything, the reaction of you holding your chest was very rare. ”
"I'm very happy with this, and your reaction makes me feel very real, so I decided to believe you partially. ”
Saul recounted in all seriousness, and he finally understood how Huggers was in defense of his fallacies.
"Maybe you have a point, but how do I think you're lying to me?" Sevana stared at Thor faintly.
"Well, your instincts are accurate, which means that your thinking is also normal. ”
“......”
"Okay, I've been playing with you for a long time, I really should go. If you really want to talk to someone, I can introduce you to a friend, his name is Xiugus, and I can talk to you for a few days and nights. ”
"It's not fun for people who talk too much. Savana thought for a moment and came up with this sentence.
"Don't look at others with prejudice. With a wave of his hand, Thor left with a bucket full of water.
One day later, Thor came to the lake again with an empty bucket.
"You're here again?" said Sylvana, cheerfully greeting.
Seeing her, Thor shook off a piece of cloth and spread it on the ground, and put some food on top of it in turn.
"What is it?" Sevana exuded curiosity.
"It's a dish that I cook with great care. Saul pointed to the food and explained it in detail, from the process to the taste.
Finally, he picked up the food and took a big bite, then squinted his eyes with a look of enjoyment.
"I'm sure you've never tasted anything like this, so I'm bringing it to you. Saul said.
Savana opened her mouth slightly, her whole body trembled, although what Saul said was right, but she felt so angry inexplicably.
Since then, Thor's wilderness life has taken on a strange part.
Whenever he floated on the surface of the water to take a bath, Siffana would float around him with her eyes closed to chat with him, or scurry around him like a fish leaping on the water.
Thor sometimes suspects that she doesn't close her eyes at all, but every time he invites her down to wash together, he is always scolded for being shameless and obscene.
