The Dragon and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 4: Eliam

Fleur didn't dwell too long on the thoughts evoked by the girl, and after a simple breakfast in the tent, the girl had come out of her melancholy feelings, much to Sauron's delight. After tidying up his things a little, Sauron accompanied the maiden to wander around the camp.

As time went on, the camp became more lively, more and more wizards came from all over the place, and the station, with all kinds of tents taking up almost all the open space, making it seem even more crowded, and from time to time the Ministry of Magic staff ran around, coordinating the trivial matters in the station.

"Hell, are those Russians crazy!" Sauron heard a passing staff member complaining loudly that his colleague was talking excitedly to a few bearded Russians, and next to them stood a huge tent with several domes, like a church, and the staff member angrily shouted to the interpreter, "But they remove this thing, we have no place for them to build a castle." ”

Sauron and the others had met a lot of things like this along the way, and sometimes they would stop and watch for a while, as if they were watching a short burlesque. The two of them wandered around aimlessly, although they both liked to be quiet on weekdays, but at this moment, they were also happy to wander in the bustling crowd.

"Hmm." Sauron stopped abruptly, tilting his head to look at the crowd gathering not far away, and the girl holding his arm also stopped, looking at Sauron suspiciously.

"What's wrong?" Fleur followed his gaze, but found nothing out of the ordinary.

Sauron stared at it for a moment, then shook his head slightly, "It's nothing, just an acquaintance." ”

The girl frowned, but didn't ask anything, pulled Sauron and continued to walk forward, and said with some vigilance: "We said okay, we will come out to camp and rest in the past two days, and you are not allowed to go to Hulai." ”

Sauron nodded, in fact, he didn't think much of it just now, he really just met an "acquaintance" - standing in the middle of the crowd was Barty Crouch, the director of the Department of International Cooperation of the Ministry of Magic, this old thing has been making trouble for his side lately, but as Sauron and Ibikos analyzed before, now is not the time to attack Crouch.

The two walked aimlessly through the tents and the crowd, and before they knew it, they had passed through the entire camp and came to the edge of the other side of the camp, looking east along the sparse and low bush belt, and could faintly see the roof of the stadium on the other side of the woods. The two of them walked through the bushes, letting the damp branches and leaves a faint mark on their clothes, and the noise of the camp faded away, and the two walked slowly through the grass with the faint moisture in the wind. It didn't take long for the two of them to find a small pool of water, and through the gaps in the reeds at the water's edge, they could see the sparkling waves of the clear lake.

The girl was about to walk over, but was gently pulled by Sauron, who raised his hand and pointed to the other side of the lake, and in the direction of his finger, Fleur was surprised to find the other guests of this quiet lakeβ€”long silver hair, beautiful faces, elf-like figures as if they did not belong to this world, diffusing psychedelic light in the faint sunlight.

It was a few beautiful babies, their light figures as if they had no weight, and the breeze swept across the water, causing a few ripples. They chuckled, and the wind chime-like laughter seemed to have an inexplicable magic, and people couldn't help but want to forget everything, so they kept listening. The lake and the beautiful babies who are enjoying it form a natural picture, covering the beauty that seems to exist only in dreams.

Sauron turned his head to look at the girl beside him, this girl with the blood of a beautiful baby quietly looked at the scene in front of her, as if she was intoxicated, but when Sauron's eyes turned to her, she said softly, "They are so beautiful. ”

"The same goes for you." Sauron said softly, looking at the babies, "Even I have to praise the wonder of creation. ”

The girl chuckled and asked hesitantly, "Shall we go over, I think it is a fault to even disturb them." ”

Sauron shook his head absently, "They've noticed us. ”

Sauron was right, the girls had stopped, floating above the water, looking in the direction of Sauron.

"Who's over there." A light voice came, with a hint of imperceptible vigilance.

Sauron glanced at the girl who was a little worried, smiled absently, took her hand and walked straight forward, the reeds in front of the two were separated by an invisible force, in the girl's surprise, Sauron pulled her straight to the lake.

"Ahh Fleur snorted softly, and was surprised to find that the lake was like the ground, and it was firmly trampled under her feet.

As if sensing her thoughts, Sauron held her hand and comforted her slightly, and just pulled the girl towards the girls on the other side of the lake.

"We're just passing by by a lot." Sauron whispered, but the voice was clearly heard over the open water, "As you can see, we have no ill will. ”

"A familiar breath, thousands of years ago, I thought you had left this world at Ragnarok." A beautiful baby stepped forward a few steps forward with her long white skirt dragging on the surface of the lake, as if she was merging into one, she looked at Sauron and said, her tone revealing an inexplicable wistfulness, "Although we don't have a friendship, it's still nice to see you again, the guardians of the Sea of Original Sin, the Dark Dragons." ”

Sauron was a little surprised, he narrowed his eyes at the girl in front of him, she had the same long silver hair as her people, a delicate countenance, and fair skin that shone like pearls, but what really caught the eye was her eyes, which were like a crescent moon, with eyes that glowed with ice blue.

Subconsciously, Sauron took half a step forward, blocking the girl behind him, his eyes showed blade-like eyes, and in Sauron's eyes, the beautiful baby in front of him turned into an ice-blue flame. In contrast to Sauron's own destructive power, the power of the girl in front of her was ethereal and peaceful, like a tranquil lake, so perfectly integrated with nature that even he could not perceive it at firstβ€”she was a demigod.

Sauron regretted his carelessness a little, and although he was not afraid of the strange demigod in front of him, the girl behind him made him worry. The atmosphere became a little oppressive for a while, and after a long time, Sauron took a half step back, bent slightly to the demigod in front of him with his right hand on his chest, and performed a wizarding salute.

"Please forgive our Meng Lang, ma'am." Sauron whispered, "We don't mean to offend. ”

Sauron lowered his head slightly when he spoke, but he used his spiritual sense to the extreme, although the strange demigod on the other side seemed to have no malicious intent, but considering the hibiscus behind him, Sauron did not dare to take the risk - in the face of the power of the demigod, ordinary beings are too fragile.

"Huh." The female demigod let out a pleasant chuckle, "We only met by chance by the lake, and as you can see, I have no ill will. ”

As if to show her sincerity, she took the initiative to suppress her power, and in Sauron's spiritual sense, although she still existed, she was almost indistinguishable from an ordinary girl.

She looked at Fleur, looked at her somewhat nervous face gently, and said with a smile, "You're lucky, young junior." She looked at Sauron, with a hint of ridicule in her tone, "You know, they are stubborn guys, and they have always valued their pride more than their lives." ”

Fleur was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of pink appeared on her face, but the happy smile on the corner of her mouth was obvious, and after a moment's silence, she looked at the beautiful demigod in front of her a little nervously, "Dear lady, can I know your name." ”

Sauron's heart tightened slightly, for a demigod to ask his name so abruptly was a little disrespectful, but to Sauron's surprise, the demigod just smiled lightly.

"Surprising intuition." She looked at Fleur and after hiding the pupil of God, her ice-blue eyes stared at the girl's beautiful eyes with a bit of god-likeness, "Remember my name, child, may it protect your heart and happiness - my name is Elion SΓ©phine Rasvina Delacour." ”

Sauron was stunned, looked at the demigod with the same surname as Fleur with a complicated expression, hesitated, but didn't say anything, just bowed her head slightly. Elion smiled, her blue eyes clear and deep, like the sky, reflecting the world.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." Her voice was as pleasant as ever, but it seemed more real, "Bless you and may you be happy." ”

With that, Elion turned, and swept towards the shore as lightly as the wind, and the other girls left with her, and soon disappeared into the mist of the woods.

Sauron took Fleur's hand and watched them leave silently, Eliam's blessing whispering like a whisper, echoing with the wind on the lake, before slowly fading away.

"Guardian of Garnir, the Holy Spirit," Sauron whispered, "Eliam, the goddess of illusions." ”

"She is my ancestor." Fleur whispered, "I thought she was just a legend. ”

Sauron tightened the grip on her hand and pulled her out of her trance, "Like she said, it's just a chance and wonderful encounter, whether she's a legend or not, you're still you." ”

"It doesn't look like you're surprised." Fleur asked Sauron, "Do you know her save." ”

"Meiwa is such a seductive creature, how could she live so comfortably in the world of magic if there was no such being?" Sauron whispered, "Except that I didn't expect to meet her here. ”

In fact, Sauron didn't just speculate about Elian's existence, the Endless Sea of Rules established a connection between all the demigods, and although Elian hid his existence in the depths of the rules, he couldn't completely escape the perception of other demigods, but Sauron didn't think Fleur was suitable to know this.

"Holy Spirit Realm Garnier?" Fleur didn't delve into Sauron's words, instead asking, "What's that?" ”

"That's the hometown of Forbertol." Sauron said with some distraction, a trace of black flame wandering between his fingers, "Legend has it that this is the last pure land in this world. ”

PS: I've been working hard lately, and I really can't spare time to update, so I'm sorry for the moment.

Regarding the new demigod Elian, who is a character who drives the plot, by the way, does anyone see anything strange about her name? The doctor intends to gradually improve the composition of this world, and will continue to unfold the secrets of the magical world in the future, but he promises not to deviate too much from the main line.
