Chapter Forty-Eight: The Elven Rite of Passage

Dressed in beautiful costumes, stand on a stage made of candlelight and smiles, and enjoy the sea of laughter and singing around you.

Slowly flipping through the records of past festivals, Aya had a strong expectation for Aya, who had no interest in coming-of-age ceremonies.

Legend has it that in the distant age of the gods, the ruler of the time was the main god Romir, but he was extravagant and tyrannical, which caused the displeasure of many gods.

But Romir's powerful power made the gods forbear, and finally, as he became more and more extravagant and corrupt, finally a god bravely stood up and accused Romir, he is the son of the god of the earth, Gelda, Lergos.

But Romir did not change for this, but in a fit of rage, he imprisoned Lergos and prepared for trial, and it was Romir's youngest daughter, the goddess of life, who was in charge of the guard, Murnai.

But in his captivity, he touched Mörnai with his openness, and they fell in love with each other, and Mörnay took good care of him, but even after a long period of discussion and deliberation, Lörgos was finally sentenced to death.

Before his execution, he wrote a long suicide note to Mörnai, declaring his innocence and his deep attachment to Mörnai.

At that time, Mörnai happened to be just an adult, so later, in order to commemorate the bravery and tastelessness of Lergos, as well as the pure love between Mörnai, the elves positioned that day as the coming-of-age ceremony of the elves, and the time was once every 100 years, which was also the age of Mörnai's adulthood.

The elf coming-of-age ceremony is the grandest festival of the elves, and only elves who have reached the age of 100 and have not participated in the coming-of-age ceremony can participate.

The elves who participate in the rite of passage will receive the blessings of the goddess of life on this day, and if they have already married someone by then, the marriage will be more sacred and beautiful.

This is exactly what Auston is looking forward to, and he must propose to his favorite Aya on that day and give the best of himself to Aya.

The coming-of-age ceremony was less than two years away, so he had to start preparing now, and after handing over the task of guarding the border to his subordinate Erwin, he hurried back to the Forest of Life, and he couldn't wait to meet Aya now.

For him, no matter what, Aya must be his.

At this time, Aya, who was accompanying Ilul to check the information, pouted and shrugged her nose, and then gently closed the book in her hand: "Your Royal Highness Princess, can only elves participate in the coming-of-age ceremony?"

Hearing Aya's question, Ilul couldn't help but be stunned, of course she knew what Aya really wanted to know, but she thought it was a good time to make it clear to Aya.

After several expediencies, Ilul gently placed the book on the table, and was about to speak, but Xiaobai suddenly flew in from the window and slowly landed on Aya's shoulder.

At this time, Aiyana still had the care to wait for Ilul to answer her question, and hurriedly ran out with Xiaobai in her arms, leaving only the elf princess who sighed and felt helpless.

After confirming that there was no one around, Aya unfolded the letter with a smile on her face, while Xiaobai still stood by the window and combed her feathers.

My favorite Aya:

Oh, that's beautiful, my dear princess, and I wonder if I'll ever get a chance to see you swaying in the starry sky and the glow of fireflies.

Seriously, life as a knight is much more boring than I imagined, except for training, it is fighting, although it is tiring, but it also makes me grow a lot.

A few days ago, there was a plague and a riot in a town not far from Azeritto, and you don't know how bleak it was, but in the end the matter was resolved by the knights and priests, and I have a share of the credit.

Give me some more time, my princess, and I will surely grow into a true knight, with a shield in my hand to protect you.

Your knight, López.

"Fool, your princess doesn't want you to get hurt. Even though his words were full of complaints, his face was still full of affection.

Azeritto.

López was rushing to Nichard Town with some reluctance, of course, this time he still chose to take the carriage, after all, Nichol Town is still some distance from Azeritto.

In his hand is his second bounty task:

Client: Wright

Mission: Travel to the Amelia Snow to retrieve what he left behind.

Junction location: Nickel Town, the most marginal house in the east of town.

Bounty: One hundred gold coins

Although the bounty this time is not very impressive compared to the last time, it is actually quite a lot.

In the midst of the bumps, López finally arrived in the town of Nickel, paid the fare, and slowly got out of the carriage.

The scenery of the town of Nikkor is still very pleasant, full of flowers and plants, and the air is quite fresh.

Lopez suddenly felt that it must be good to retire here, and it must be very happy to take Aya out to see the scenery and bask in the sun.

But now was not the time to look forward to that, he had to hurry to Wright and ask for the details of the mission.

The entrance to the town was on the west side, which meant he had to walk to the east side.

He had to speed up, because Nichol wasn't small, so it would take him a lot of time to walk the whole way, and he knew that was the case, so he asked the coachman to send him straight over.

But when you think about it, it's not bad to feel the scenery along the way, in fact, López can only comfort himself like this.

Walking slowly down the streets of Nikkor, there were three or two pedestrians passing by from time to time, and occasionally a few birds chirping around.

Perhaps, settling in this town is really a good choice.

As his thoughts wandered, López had arrived at the location given by Wright.

What appeared in front of López was a house that was neither too big nor too visible, ordinary and standing quietly.

After knocking on the door, he waited silently at the door.

After a while, a gray-haired man opened the door and welcomed López in.

Although his hair is gray, this man does not look like an old man, and his body looks extremely healthy.

"Are you Mr. Wright?" López asked.

"Oh, it's me, are you the knight on the bounty mission, and besides, just call me Wright, otherwise it will be too polite. With that, Wright nodded at him

Looking at Wright's gray hair, López could only smile helplessly: "Okay, Wright." ”

"Isn't this much younger, well, let's talk about the mission first, I went hunting in the snow in Amelia a few days ago and encountered a pack of white wolves in the snow, those damn wolves robbed me of my prey and scratched me, however, suddenly there was an avalanche, which allowed me to escape, I was stuck in the cave by the snow, and after regaining consciousness, I chiseled the hole with the weapon I was carrying, and finally escaped, but because I was injured at the time, I couldn't carry too many heavy objects, so I left some things in the cave, I hope you can help me find it。 With that, Letra opened her clothes and showed López the scar.

Skimming over the relatively inconspicuous marks on his wrists and arms, López slowly looked up.

The body full of scars made López sincerely admire: "It seems that you have dealt with death more than once. ”

"This is my medal of victory. Wright, it seems, seems to be happy to show that too.

After laughing, López asked Carmen a more practical question: "How do I have to get there?"

"Don't worry, this is the map I drew from memory later, and it shouldn't make much difference. With that, Wright pulled out a map-like object from his pocket.

"Okay. López replied, unsure whether to trust Wright's memory or not, but had no choice but to believe it.

He was about to turn around and push the door out, but was stopped by Wright: "You don't just want to go like this, kid, you may need some equipment, come with me." ”

Although he was a little confused, López followed Wright over.
