"Is this...?"

Listening to the voice from the restaurant, Sheehan was slightly startled, and then moved closer.

As she got closer, Sheehan realized that the restaurant was full of acquaintances.

At this time, Vivien, Lumia, and Merika were eating breakfast.

It's just that they don't know if they talked about something, and their expressions are a little wrong.

Specifically, Vivien and Lumia both looked apologetic, while Merika looked a little disappointed and dejected.

"What's going on?"

Sheen had some doubts in her heart, but she still entered the restaurant and attracted the attention of a group of girls.

"Hey... Mr. Sheehan? ”

"Mr. Sheehan!"

Seeing Sheen suddenly appear, both Lumia and Merika subconsciously stood up.

On closer inspection, the eyes of Lumia and Merika looking at Sheen were somewhat different from before.

It was a look that, in addition to the usual nervousness and cowardice, carried a hint of admiration and admiration that was imperceptible to others.

This kind of gaze has appeared on Lumia and Merika since Sheen defeated Alidia.

Obviously, both of them have a faint tendency to become Sheen's little fan sister because of Sheen's performance.

Vivien, on the other hand, was still as gentle as ever.

It's a pity that in addition to being gentle, Vivien also has a hint of amusement in her eyes when she looks at Sheen.

"Are you willing to come back? Our Lord Count Badztut? Vivien didn't know whether to tease or tease, "I thought you were reluctant to leave His Royal Highness Lothy's bedchamber." ”

It seems that Vivien also knew about Sheehan's night and spending the whole night in Rosie's bedchamber.

“...... I'm sorry I forgot to tell you, I'm worried about you. ”

Sheehan was still a little embarrassed.

Although he has always been thick-skinned enough, Lumia and Merika on the side are ignorant and act as if they can't understand what is happening, which somehow makes the door in Sheen's heart welded shut, but the steering wheel is unstable.

Only Vivien, with a calm expression.

"Don't worry, I know." Vivian nodded lightly and said with a smile: "After all, it is squeezed out of all the men in this world, marrying the first beauty of the human race, and becoming an unmarried couple with that kingdom treasure, it is normal to want to contact Her Royal Highness the princess more, we can understand it." ”

...... This sounds normal, why does it always feel that something is not right?

Could it be, this captain is accusing himself of being sexually motivated, right?

"Ahem..."Sheen coughed and said with a wry smile: "Don't make fun of me, I haven't married yet, and I've snubbed people for half a month, so I have to accompany them, right?" ”

"That's true." Only then did Vivian put away her teasing thoughts, and said thoughtfully: "Even Her Royal Highness Luo Xi, in this regard, she is just an ordinary girl, since they have chosen you, then you have to take responsibility and accompany her well." ”

Vivien said such things to Sheen in a gentle voice, and seemed to be quite concerned about Sheen and Lothy's future happiness.

Lumia nodded her head repeatedly, seemingly agreeing with Vivien's statement.

Only Merika, when she saw Sheen and Vivian talking about such things, her mouth pouted unconsciously, and her mood was not very high.

Sheen didn't see this scene, and after a few words about it, he turned back to the topic.

"By the way, are you talking about anything important?" Sheehan glanced around at the three of them and asked, "Judging by the way you guys just looked, it doesn't seem to be a pleasant topic, right?" ”

At least, that's what Sheehan thought.

Otherwise, why did Vivien and Lumia look apologetic, and Merika looked depressed?

It must have been something we didn't like to talk about.

However, when Sheen thought so, the women vetoed it.

"No... That's not true. ”

Lumia spoke timidly.

"That's not a bad thing."

Vivien said the same.

"Not a bad thing?"

Sheehan couldn't help but be stunned, and then his curiosity was aroused.

In such a situation, Merica raised her hand.

"That's... Shall I...? Merica was a little nervous, and a little embarrassed, "Actually, I was inviting Sister Vivien and Lumia to come back to the Elven Land with me. ”

———— "Land of Elves".

Hearing this term, the curiosity in Sheen's heart suddenly soared.

Because, this is a place that interests Sheehan a lot.

"The so-called elven country refers to the forest area where the elves of the elven clan live, right?"

Sheehan said.

Yes.

The land of the elves, as the name suggests, is the home of the elves.

On the edge of the kingdom lies an extremely vast forest.

It is the largest forest in the human world, called Tagore's Forest.

In the Forest of Tagore, there are countless monsters.

However, in the deepest part of this forest, there is the habitat of the elves.

It is said that all the spirits in this world were born from there and inhabit that place.

Many people have visited the elves, but the elves are a relatively exclusive race, they value their own purity and bloodline, and they also know that many people in the outside world covet themselves as elves, so they have laid a lot of enchantments around the habitat, that is, the location of the elven country is hidden, and it also hinders the arrival of those with bad intentions.

In addition, the Forest of Tagore, where the Elven Country is located, is full of all kinds of monsters, and there are even some legendary monsters, and all those who try to enter the Elven Country have basically returned.

Throughout the ages, there are only a handful of people who have entered the land of elves.

And these few people were brought into it after making friends with the elves and getting the approval of the elves, and they were fortunate enough to be guests in the elven country.

In other words, there are almost no people who can find the land of elves and enter it with their own abilities.

The word "almost" is used because it was achieved thousands of years ago.

This person is none other than Mithra the Brave.

In other words, except for the brave Mithra, no one has ever been able to enter the elven land by himself without first getting acquainted with the elven clan and being introduced by the other party.

In view of this, in the human world, the land of elves is longed for by countless people and regarded as a holy place.

Sheehan knew about it.

Don't ask why, just ask for pure interest (believe it or not).

Now, Merika, a member of the Elven Clan, claims to invite Vivien and Lumia to the Elven Land.

How could Sheen not be curious?

"Why did you suddenly want to invite Vivien and Lumia to the Elven Lands?" Sheehan looked at Merika curiously and asked, "Does your family want to meet your teammates?" ”

Hearing this, Melika looked at Sheen, who was staring at her curiously, and her pretty face slowly turned red.

This is both due to shyness and nervousness.

There's no way, Merika really rarely has a face-to-face conversation with Sheehan like this.

No, it should be said, Sheehan rarely stares at Merica like this.

Because Merica is very shy and prone to strained relationships, even if she lives under the same roof, she rarely gets stared at and talked by Sheen like this.

You know, in the past, Merica would only hide on the sidelines, be a little transparent, or with Lumia, shout 666 to Sheen and the others.

Now, staring at Sheen with a curious face, Merica naturally couldn't hide her shyness and nervousness.

Present...

"No... It's not my family who wants to see my teammates...", Melika said, "Besides, I don't have anyone to call my family..."

It was only when Merika said this that Sheen remembered about it.

"By the way, you elves are all born from nature, although they are born with a magical race, and are known as the closest life to the gods in the human race, but because you are all born from nature, you don't have parents, or rather, the entire elf race is actually each other's relatives and family, but there are no parents who are related by blood in the real sense, right?"

Sheen turned to Vivien.

"That's right." Vivien nodded, agreeing with Sheen's statement, and said, "The elves of the elven clan all live alone, except for someone from the royal family who serves on their side, even the underage children live alone. ”

"What about the baby?" Sheehan couldn't help but ask, "What about the newborn baby?" ”

This question caused Vivien to laugh for a while.

Merika also hurriedly said.

"Well, Mr. Sheehan, elves don't have babies." Merika explained, "When we elves were first born, we were in a very special state and did not need to be cared for like human babies. ”

A very special state?

What's the state?

Sheehan has to admit that this touches on his own knowledge blind spot.

But before Sheen could find out, Vivien spoke.

"Anyway, Merika didn't invite us to Elven Country because someone in her family wanted to meet us teammates." Vivien said, "Merika invited us to attend the Peace Festival in the Elven Lands. ”

"Peace Sacrifice?" Sheehan blinked and asked, "What's that?" ”

Sheen's question, everyone seems to have expected it a long time ago.

So, under everyone's explanation one after another, Sheen gradually understood.

It turns out that this so-called peace festival is a festival spontaneously held by the elves after the victory of the gods and humans on the battlefield thousands of years ago, the surrender of the demons, and the peace of the Three Realms.

This festival is held only once in a hundred years, and it is second only to the "Birth Festival" and the "Queen Festival" in the importance of the elves.

Because it is a festival that feels like peace has come, whenever the peace festival comes, the elves who are away from home usually invite their trusted friends to return to the elven land together to participate in the festival.

It is also thanks to the existence of such a festival that the elves are only xenophobic, and they have not completely cut off contact with the outside world, otherwise, the elves may be completely out of touch with other races, and that may not be said.

Therefore, Merika wanted to invite her friends to the land of the elves at this time when the peace festival was about to come.

But...

"Sister Vivien and Lumia can't go..."

Merica was a little aggrieved.

Vivien and Lumia immediately apologized again.

"I'm sorry, Merica." Vivien touched Merika's head and said, "Reilly is already on her way back to the royal capital, and she will arrive soon, and when she returns to the royal capital, the Lazahad family is bound to make some big moves in order to let her inherit the family affairs, and then the adventurer's guild should become very chaotic, so I have already made an appointment with Reilly to help her when she returns, and I really can't leave." ”

"I... Me too. Lumia lowered her head and said, "My sisters are on the way to the royal capital with President Relily, and I have to stay in the royal capital to pick them up and settle them." ”

It was for this reason that Merika was invited once, and in the end, neither Vivien nor Lumia could go ahead.

"Woo," Merica said in frustration, "Sister Vivien and Lumia can't go, and Thière isn't here..."

Thanks to this, Merica looked like she couldn't bring back a single friend.

I see, it's no wonder she's so depressed.

Thinking of such a thing, Sheehan smiled unconsciously.

Moreover, it is the kind that smiles brightly.

Is this situation a godsend?

"Now, Merika." Sheen pointed to himself and said expectantly, "Can I go?" ”

"You?" Merika froze.

"Mr. Sheehan?" Lumia was also surprised.

"You want to go to the land of the elves?" Vivien was equally surprised.

"What? Isn't it possible? Sheehan asked rhetorically, "Am I not a 'trusted friend'?" ”

The crowd couldn't help it...... I really can't help it...... They all fell silent.

"Wait!" The corners of Sheehan's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but say loudly: "You don't really think of me as someone you can't trust, right?" ”

Sheehan felt his heart go cold.

Is it any wonder Merika didn't want to invite herself, it turned out that her credibility in their hearts was so low?

(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

Just as Sheen wanted to flip the table, Merika hurriedly explained.

"No... Not so, Mr. Sheehan. Melica hurriedly said: "The main thing is that the elves of the elf clan are very wary of the men of his race, and the elves in the past basically only make friends of the same sex, and invite friends of the same sex to participate in the peace festival. That's why I didn't think about inviting you..."

That's the way it is.

If Sheen could be invited, Merika would be 10,000 willing.

No matter how you say it, Sheehan is her own......

After thinking about it, Merika blushed again.

Sheehan, on the other hand, didn't feel relieved at all.

How is this?

Is it wrong for men?

It's not racism at all, it's sexism!
