The realm of the elves is not Monia's hometown, but when she comes here, she has a strange feeling of returning home. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info When Lahuana led them through the dense forest, picked up the last branches, and revealed the city built on the forest, whether it was the young elf sisters or the little mages who were human in two lives, they couldn't help but burst into tears.

Frankly speaking, the city of the elves is far less magnificent than the Holy Rose, and even less magnificent than the castles in the human kingdom in terms of scale. However, the heartfelt emotion was something Monia had not felt in any other city—the City of the Eagle in Lorendam, the northern kingdom, was the most magnificent city on the continent, but it was as cold as the north wind in that city; The Holy Rose was recognized as a holy city, where she felt equality and long-lost warmth, but it was only the indifferent warmth and respect of strangers.

Only here, looking at the frolicking elven toddlers, looking at their kindreds with heartfelt smiles on their faces, did she feel warmth, like the warmth of a mother's embrace in a frosty moon.

Looking at Monia and the elven twins, there was no look of surprise on Lahuana's face - the elves who had trekked from outside had come to their own home, their home without persecution, they all looked like this, this heartbreaking look. However, there wasn't much she could do for them, and as an elf who grew up in the Elven Forest, Latina had heard of the ordeal faced by the elves who had been outcast. But in the end, it is not a personal experience, she can understand their feelings, but she can't empathize, all she can do is some insignificant little things.

Like what......

"Welcome back, welcome back to ...... Family. ”

She greeted her sincerest with an emotional voice.

"Thank you, Lajuana."

The mage carefully wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes and thanked him in a voice that still had a trilling voice.

"No thanks, that's what I have to do." After the female knight responded, she said half-to herself, "As a forest ranger, I know how cruel the world is for elves outside, and I can roughly guess how much suffering you have gone through to get here. But all I can do is give you a trivial greeting, that's all. ”

"Thank you."

Perhaps this is indeed a trivial matter for a female knight, but for every clansman who returns to the Elven Forest, there are no more heart-warming words than this bland greeting. Monia knew this, so she thanked her again, and Lavana obviously knew this, so she said this greeting every time she came into contact with the returnee.

"I've said no thanks, it's my duty." Perhaps because of the many things like this, the female knight quickly came out of her low mood, and when she talked about her duties, a proud smile appeared on her face, "I will continue to fulfill my duties and take you to the ancient trees in the central area to register your identity." ”

Monia naturally has no objection to this, as a kingdom, at least as the prototype of the kingdom, it is impossible not to even have basic population registration. Especially in a sparsely populated and precious country like Elves, the import registration must be implemented, otherwise even the lost population will not be found in time.

Lavana led her jungle panther in front, and Fana and Liel had been having a lot of fun with the jungle panther - in terms of appearance, this jungle pride blessed by Lady Frost Moon was indeed an enlarged version of a cat, but the mage knew for the first time, and it turned out that they and cats were also extremely similar in some subtle movements and preferences.

"This is a treehouse," the knight said as she led the way, "We elves who have been living in the forest generally live in treehouses, but many of our compatriots who have been living outside are not used to life in the trees. As a result, there are also many elves who choose to build their huts on the ground. ”

"Speaking of which, I'm not used to life in the trees." Looking at the hut that lived on a canopy more than ten meters high, Monia smiled reluctantly. She wasn't an elf who had lived on the World Tree for no knowing how many generations she had lived, and if she had lived on it, she had no doubt that her featherfall would have been practiced superbly—provided she hadn't been thrown to death before she did.

"Sister Monia, it's clumsy to climb trees," Liel said with a wicked smile. (I was just thinking that in my head, sister!) ）

Fana interjected expressionlessly, and the merciless revelation made the mage can't help but have a black line.

"Actually," after a moment's hesitation, Monia said, "I still know how to climb trees......

It's a matter of course, but being able to climb a tree and being able to move flexibly in a tree are two completely different things.

"Actually, don't worry, there are a lot of elves who are not used to life in the trees." Noticing the worried look on the little mage's face, the female knight smiled dumbly, "As long as you specifically point this out when registering, the administrator of the registry office will arrange a forest hut for you, of course, it may be a little rudimentary compared to the dwellings outside. ”

"It's okay."

This was the end of the topic, and a group of four people and a cat continued to walk the streets. On both sides of the street were small shops, and the proprietors of the shops were also elves, noticing Monia's curious gaze, and the elves smiled softly at her. From time to time, two or three elven children, slightly smaller than Fanariel, came running along the road, and they looked their strange faces up and down with innocent eyes, and then suddenly burst into a big smile and dispersed.

"What a bunch of naughty little guys." Lavana sighed as she watched them leave again.

"But their smiles are really pure." Unlike the female knights who have always lived here, Monia, who grew up in the outside world with a deep-rooted hostility to elves, has a different opinion, "If I were the parent of a child, even if it was just for the child to show this pure smile, I would contribute to this country." ”

"Although it may be a bit rude to say that," Lavana looked at the small girl with a strange expression after hearing the mage's testimonial, "However, Monia really doesn't match your age. ”

"Maybe it's the suffering that shapes life." Monia didn't explain the female knight's question directly, she just shrugged her shoulders, she couldn't tell the other party that she was a reborn with memories of her past life, "You know, disasters always make people mature faster. ”

Lavana didn't delve into the mage's answer, but just nodded and moved on.

As a kingdom, or the prototype of the kingdom, the elven city is not large, on the one hand, because of the population factor, and on the other hand, because of the full and effective use of all the space above and under the trees. Not long after they continued on their way, they came to the center of the elven homeland and saw the ancient tree in the mouth of the female knight.

It was indeed an old tree, and Monia had reason to believe that it would not have survived without the help of the elven mage - from a distance, this ancient tree was so towering that at least a dozen people could not surround it, and the forest branches were flourishing and thriving, and compared to this ancient tree, the elves standing below it were as inconspicuous as ants.

"Well, I was shocked to see Aruba for the first time." Noticing the look of surprise on the mage's face, Rahana continued, "Aruba is the name of the tree, it is older than any elf, and it has been standing here since my grandfather's grandfather was a child, sheltering us from the wind and rain, and it is the patron saint of us all. When the Senate made the decision to restore the kingdom, it may be that it subconsciously hopes that this elder in the tree will bless us, and everyone will naturally regard the place where it is located as the center of the future kingdom. ”

Monia didn't reply, she knew very well that this ancient tree was not as simple as the female knight said. If you don't know about the elves, you might just think that this ancient tree just lives longer, just an ordinary spectacle. But in her previous life, she clearly understood the war potential of the elves, and with the powerful power that this ancient tree has accumulated over the long years, under the awakening of the World Tree, she will definitely become a war machine comparable to an archmage. Nine times out of ten, the elves chose the royal court here, hoping to use the power of this ancient tree to build the final fortress to guard the royal court.

Moreover, the implementation of this plan is not a day or two, and plants and trees have their own lifespan limits, and it is almost impossible for a tree species to live for such a long time in nature. In other words, the elves who fled to this forest from a long time ago are recuperating and preparing for the revival of the race in the future.

Thinking of the predecessors who still did not forget to leave a fire for future generations in times of crisis, Monia sighed softly. Then with a tangled gaze, he watched as the female knight in light armor deftly climbed in the direction of the canopy. Before she could make a move, the panther of the jungle carrying Fana and Liel leaped up and landed on the trunk of the tree.

"Ouch......" The mage who fell at the end looked up at the trunk of the tree with no end in sight, let out a completely different sigh than before, and then applied a few positive spells to himself, and climbed up little by little. The only good thing was that the treehouse at the registry office was only in the lower part of the old tree, and before Monia could start to fear heights, she finally stepped on the sturdy and reliable branches of the old trees, which were not much different from walking on the ground.

"Really...... Thank God. ”

The mage, who sighed in an imperceptible tone, took a deep breath and walked towards the registry with the female knight and her panther who could only see her back. However, as soon as she walked to the door of the registration office, she just came out and bowed to her apologetically: "Sorry, Monia, it was my negligence. In order to register the identity of the mage, it is necessary to meet with the mage-sama, and only after the confirmation of the mage-sama and the seal of the mage's association can the mage's identity be filled in at the time of registration. It's just a little troublesome, and this point in time has passed the time of Lord Moya's visit. ”

Although this result was unexpected, it did make sense.

"What about Fana and Lil? How are their identities registered? ”

"They are not mages, and their apprenticeship is certified by the Mage Guild. But. The Guild does not manage apprentices as strictly as mages, and they can wait for them to register before they can reapply. Lahana explained, "Once the mage status is confirmed, there will be many privileges, so the management is very strict, please forgive me. ”

"It's okay," since it was reasonable, then there was only acceptance, but before accepting, she still had a question, "Since Lord Moya has stopped receiving visitors today, where should I live before confirming my identity and registering?" ”

"This ...... If you don't mind, you can stay at my house. The knight said, "Even if it is implemented, it is not so quickly assigned to a house, and it is usually lived in the Guide's treehouse......

At first, Monia just nodded, but then, when she heard a certain word, she couldn't help but frown: "You mean the treehouse...... Take the liberty of asking where your treehouse is. ”

The female knight who was asked this question was not disgusted, but instead pointed up proudly and said, "Close to the upper level." ”

"Approaching the upper ......" Monia looked up at the canopy with no end in sight, and swallowed unconsciously, "Lahuana, is there any other choice?" ”

ps: The state is better, and the next chapter should be able to resume.
