The elves didn't look very old, at least ...... This is true if judged by human aesthetics.

The oldest looked like a human being was twelve or thirteen years old, while the youngest looked like a child of five or six years old.

Of course, with Al Moonlight as a lesson from the past, the lunch box knows that even the youngest elf may be old enough to be his big brother.

However, he noticed that the hair color and pupil color of these elves were not the same as those of elven girls.

There were blonde hair, red hair, brown hair, and green hair, but there was no gray-black hair like him and the girl.

According to players' understanding, the elves in "Elven Country" are also divided into many tribes, and the best way to distinguish the tribes is to look at their hair color and pupil color.

The different hair colors suggest that these young elves and maidens are not of the same tribe.

The elves were huddled in the corners, and some of the younger ones were already asleep in the arms of their companions, but there were faint traces of unwiped tears on their faces.

The awake elves, who were a little older, stared warily outside the cell, their faces pale, and even if they forced their composure, they could not hide the fear and confusion of the future in their eyes.

When they were brought in, it instantly attracted the attention of the elves.

After seeing the elf girl who was tied up, an older male elf's eyes widened instantly, and he rushed to the cell door, grabbed the railing and shouted:

"Night...... Sister Nightingale! You...... How did you get caught too?! ”

His voice was crisp and childish, tinged with surprise and concern.

"Sister? Was my sister arrested too? ”

His voice caught the attention of the other young elves.

Soon, everyone rushed to the door, looking at the girl with attachment, worry, or sadness:

"Sister Nightingale! It's really Sister Nightingale! ”

"Sister, did they do anything to you?"

"Sister, are you hurt?"

"Sister Nightingale...... You...... How can you ......?"

Looking at those immature faces, the elf girl known as the nightingale breathed a sigh of relief, and her expression floated with a touch of tenderness.

She nodded at the elves and gave them a look of relief as a sign of relief.

"Get in! Don't shout! ”

Seeing the elves rushing to the door of the cell at once, the two humans cursed and whipped the railing of the door again, causing a scream.

It wasn't until the elves cowered and retreated to the deepest part of the cell that they stopped satisfied.

"Uh-huh......!"

Seeing the rude movements of humans, the nightingale's eyes widened,

She glared at the whip-wielding human, and was about to break free from the rope, but was soon kicked by the lunch box.

The girl turned her head angrily, but when she saw the calm eyes of the boxed lunch, the anger in her heart gradually subsided.

She understood the meaning of the lunch box's eyes-

Calm down.

Instead of putting the lunch box and nightingale in the cells of the young elves, the humans took them deeper to another cell dedicated to the professions.

The cell seemed to be stronger and deeper.

And after throwing the two into the cell, they left.

After making sure that the humans were far away, the elven girl known as the Nightingale stood up at once.

She broke free from the rope in an instant, ripped the strip of cloth off her mouth, and immediately went to the cell door and began to pick the lock.

I saw that the girl was skillful, and in less than a minute, the heavy lock was easily opened by her.

And just as Nightingale was refreshed and ready to rush out of the cell, she heard the sound of a boxed lunch behind her:

"Sent to death?"

As if cold water had been poured from head to toe, the nightingale calmed down at once.

Her movements froze slightly, and her crisp voice trembled slightly:

"They...... It's my brother and sister, I'm going to save them! ”

The lunch box was silent for a moment, and then said:

"Wait for reinforcements."

After speaking, he pointed to it, stretched out two more fingers, and shook his head:

"Two silvers."

Hearing his words, the nightingale returned, grabbed the shoulder of the lunch box, and her voice trembled:

"I know there are two humans with silver strength up there, and one is still a mage! But...... But ......"

There was a hint of crying in her voice.

"Trust me."

The voice of the lunch box is low and powerful.

After listening to the lunch, the nightingale grabbed his hands and gradually let go, and the whole person knelt on the ground:

"I ...... Can I really trust you? Seeing the scared look they looked, I really ...... I'm really worried...... They're all still kids, they're all kids! ”

As she spoke, the nightingale sobbed quietly......

The lunch box did not speak.

He hesitated for a moment, then put his hand on the girl's shoulder as a sign of comfort.

The nightingale sobbed for a while, then gradually stopped.

She wiped her reddened eyes and began to tell her story......

"I hate human beings...... They were the ones who ruined my home. ”

"After the God War a thousand years ago, the Shadow Clan was divided into several branches, and ours chose to infiltrate human society about a hundred years ago to live in seclusion......

"The most dangerous place is the safest place."

"In fact, our tribe is good at concealment, hiding our identity and living in another place every once in a while, although we are adrift, we have survived......"

"The name Nightingale was given by my mother, and in the Elvish language, the Nightingale symbolizes beauty and freedom, and she wants me to be able to live freely......"

Nightingale Shadow...... The implication is good, but ...... How is that possible? ”

"A life of wandering is full of risks."

"Later, out of compassion and kindness, the elders of the family saved an injured human knight, but accidentally let the other party discover our identity......"

"The knight swore that he was grateful for our rescue and would not tell our secrets......"

"He did a good job and was very sincere in his words. Industrious, humble, kind, faithful...... He fits almost everything we elves know about knights......"

"So...... The elders believed him. ”

"But...... I'm very much against it, I don't trust humans, and I think we should silence anyone who discovers our secrets, whoever they are......"

"However, I was reprimanded by the elders, who firmly and naively believed that the knight would abide by the rules of knighthood and would not expose the secrets of his benefactor......"

Speaking of this, the nightingale smiled mockingly:

"How is that possible? That's human! ”

"After the human left, he quickly returned with a group of mercenaries ......"

"What faithful? What kindness? In front of interests...... Everything is fake! ”

"The price of a young female elf is enough to make an ordinary person turn into a rich man, how can a greedy human not be tempted......"

"Our branch of the clan perished because of this."

"I witnessed my father being killed by humans while resisting, and my mother ...... The mother was defiled by them...... In the end, even I was arrested by the slave traders. ”

"At that time, I was already desperate, and it was another senior who lived in seclusion in human society who saved me......"

"She's not an elf, but she has a lot of sympathy for them. She opened an orphanage, but in fact it was all elves she had saved from humans......"

"Including me...... and my younger siblings. ”

"My younger siblings are not from the Shadow Clan, but they are all poor children persecuted by humans......"

"We hid our identities and hid in orphanages, it was the protection of our seniors who gave us a second home......"

"Although you need to hide, you need to hide your identity, but at least ...... We survived again. ”

"I'm the oldest, and my seniors have taught me a lot. I once infiltrated the human caravan with my predecessors and saved many of my companions. My younger siblings call me sister, they are very close to me and I love them very much......"

"Later...... The senior died in an accident. ”

"As the eldest sister, I wanted to take over the last wish of my predecessors, continue to maintain the entire orphanage, and save the elves from the hands of humans, but I didn't want the death of my predecessors to arouse the suspicion of humans, and they discovered our secret ......"

"While I was out going out, my younger siblings were arrested."

"I chased all the way here, hoping to get my younger siblings out...... But I didn't expect myself to be so powerless......"

"I ...... What a failed older sister......"

"Na ......"

The nightingale wept and looked sadly at the lunch:

"Could it be...... Is there really no shelter for our elves in this world? ”

"Could it be...... Can we just be goods? ”

"Why! Why the hell is that? What exactly are we doing wrong? ”

"Kindness...... Is it really a sin? Benevolent...... Does it really only bring misfortune? ”

"If that's the case, I'd rather fall into the darkness!"

"But...... Where is our future......"

Listening to the nightingale's words, the lunch box fell silent.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and said:

"Yes."

"Is there one?"

The nightingale was teary-eyed:

"Even if we are saved this time, it will only be another cycle of hiding and pursuit......"

"We've lost our mighty power, and we're left with this damn, good-looking appearance and a desirable longevity and special physique......"

"Do we really have a future like this?"

The nightingale grabbed the hem of the lunch box and asked with a miserable smile.

The lunch box looked down at her.

His expression was still calm, but his gaze softened a lot.

"Yes."

This time, his voice was much softer:

"Asylum and future, there's it."

After he finished speaking, the entire cell suddenly shook slightly, and a cloud of dust shook up.

Faintly, there seemed to be a high dragon roar coming from above.

The lunch box took a deep breath and helped the somewhat stunned nightingale up:

"That's it."

The aura on his body continued to rise, and his eyes gradually became sharper:

"Reinforcements have arrived."

He pulled out a dagger from the sole of his shoe that he had been hiding all along!
