Chapter 211: Elven Food
The information that appeared on the paper made the sharp-chin elf, who was still making a lot of nonsense, directly shut his mouth, as an elf who had received an aristocratic education, he also knew some magic words, so he could understand what was written on the paper. But it's one thing to understand, it's another to understand the meaning, the so-called "Origin Beast, Origin Blood" sounds like a high-end look, but he can't understand the meaning at all.
"Mr. Messenger of the Fox Clan, what should I call you?" Ji Ma on the side spoke first, no matter what the small words meant, the fox head on the text undoubtedly confirmed the identity of the white wolf's fox, and the kind of contract contained in the blood was something that no one could forge.
"Well, you can just call me White Fox. The white wolf replied.
"Okay, Mr. White Fox, I would like to formally inform you that my father, the lord of Zikfasha, has decided to receive you in the morning in three days, do you have any questions?" asked Hima.
"No problem, of course no problem. The white wolf replied that Miss Jima's father was really decisive, and he would summon him whenever he wanted, and there was no room for others to negotiate at all.
"Besides, my maid Alain, who is the one, will teach you the etiquette of an audience in these days, and you don't want to make a bad impression on my father when you see him without manners, right?" asked Hima, smiling.
"Of course, by the way, is my performance from before to now considered polite?" asked the white wolf curiously.
"It's rude, it's vulgar. The sharp-chin elf on the side said, he had been silent for a long time, and could only stare dryly at the two people talking, and finally found a place to interject.
The white wolf didn't look at His Highness Farr at all, and directly ignored him, and the anger that the sharp-chin elf finally vented was like hitting cotton, and his face turned the color of pig's liver.
"Compared to an elf who has been educated in etiquette, you are indeed far behind, but it doesn't matter, in the past, the messengers of all the spirits behaved worse than you, and to put it mildly, it was completely the elven word for "native" "Gema" said.
"When you hear it, you know it's not a good word. The white wolf said inwardly.
"Of course, you don't need to worry about anything, after our patient teaching, they have also learned etiquette and become a member of civilization, I believe that you are such an excellent animal, you will definitely be able to do better than them. Hima looked at the white wolf with affirmative eyes.
"Really, then I will not disappoint you. The white wolf replied.
"Then we'll take our leave. Miss Hima finished her task, took her leave, whispered a few words to the maid Alain before leaving, and then left.
"Let's go, too!" the sharp-chin elf gritted his teeth and pointed at the white wolf's nose as he threatened, taking three steps at the same time to catch up with Miss Himma.
"I'll remember you in rotten boots. The white wolf for mocked.
"What are you talking about, rotten boots, damn it!" the pointy-chin elf looked down and realized that his boots had been burned through a large hole, and his toes were already faintly visible when he looked through the hole.
"Damn, you wait for me!" The pointed chin elves seem to have run out of words, and they can't find any words to express their feelings, so they can only keep saying the word hateful, maybe the elves are really a relatively civilized race, and the words of scolding are so poor.
In the conversation just now, the white wolf has faintly felt the arrogance in the bones of the elves, the natives, as if they are belittled by other races as barbarians, but the white wolf now has a request for others, and he will not express any opinion on this attitude, he knows very well that if the elves continue to treat other races with this attitude, they will suffer in the end.
As the chaotic footsteps faded away, only the white wolf and the maid Alan were left in the room, both of whom stared at each other and seemed to be waiting for the other to speak first.
"Your first lesson, Mr. White Fox, is that when animals communicate with humanoids, they must first greet them, and only by doing so can they reflect the fact that humanoids are the spirits of all things. The maid Alain looked at the white wolf and said.
"I see, hello then, Lady Alain. The white wolf learned very quickly, and he didn't have any antipathy to the idea that humanoids were the spirits of all things, perhaps because he himself was once a human.
"Just call me Alan Yu. Feather is the name of the knowledge purveyor in Elven language, and you can call me that. The maid Alain replied.
"Yu's words must be similar to the teacher's meaning. The white wolf understood what the maid meant.
"I have to say, you did accept it quickly, just this first level, stumped many animals, but you are different, it seems that Miss is indeed not wrong. Alan Yu said to the white wolf in an affirmative tone.
"Of course I'm better than them, what's next?" After listening to the maid's lesson, the white wolf seemed to be able to understand why the black wolf couldn't get used to the elves, these guys were completely humanoid supremacist and looked down on other intelligent creatures, and this first lesson alone was trampling on the dignity of many non-humanoid creatures, that is, he who had been a humanoid creature could not feel anything about it, and accepted it openly.
In this way, after teaching the white wolf elven etiquette for two hours in a row, Alan announced the end of today's class.
"Mademoiselle told me that you can move freely in the nearby towns, but it is best not to run too far, and at night the gates are basically not open to anyone. The maid reminded.
"I see. ”
Seeing the white wolf nodding, the maid left, and before leaving, she didn't forget to dust off the armrest of the seat, it seems that the maid's occupational disease has attacked.
"Whew" The white wolf looked at the empty house and exhaled a long breath, he had passed the first hurdle like this, and now he was finally able to relax his tense nerves.
Through the maid's teaching, he has mastered some of the elves' etiquette, and now there is only one feeling, that is, this thing is really super complicated, and in the process of the audience must make various rituals, and say a series of prescribed words, these actions and words have strict requirements, as long as the slightest mistake, it will be considered rude, in formal diplomatic occasions, for people who do not speak etiquette, the elves will lose interest in communicating with them.
On the other hand, he has now obtained permission to wander around the elven territory, although ordinary elves don't seem to like him, but to be honest, he still wants to see the daily life of ordinary elves, and there are not many opportunities to experience the culture of special races in another world.
Thinking of this, the white wolf couldn't help but look up at the window, it was still early, it was just time for lunch, and no one came to bring him food, although he had learned to use the magic core now, and he didn't need to eat, but he could consider going out to forage for food, and by the way, it would be better to think about what food he would ask the elves for in the future.
The white wolf walked out of the apartment, walked for a while, and then came to the gate of the lord's complex, and the soldiers guarding the gate saw him and got out of the way.
The last time he came here, the white wolf walked too fast and didn't have time to take a closer look, and now that he had walked again, the white wolf couldn't help but stare at the elven guards for a while.
The elven guards wore full-body armor that gave the impression of being beautiful and sturdy, and it looked so good that it was much better than the clumsy iron plates made by goblin craftsmen.
As for the weapons, with the exception of an elven chief with an extremely fine armor and a lion helmet with a sword at his waist, the other guards all held spears in their hands, which at first glance were made of stainless steel, and were extremely sharp, shining in the sun.
The guard looked at him angrily, apparently stared at him by the white wolf, and the white wolf realized that this did not seem appropriate, so he withdrew his gaze and walked towards the nearby elven town.
It was already noon, but the white wolf did not see a trace of cooking smoke above the town next to him, which proved that the elves did not need to burn wood for cooking.
The white wolf continued to walk in the direction of the town, and there were very few elves he saw along the way, and it seemed that they had all gone home for dinner, and the few elves who saw him also ran away, as if they didn't want to deal with the white wolf.
"It's strange, what are they afraid of?Is the elf race so xenophobic?" the white wolf couldn't help but wonder, he remembered his experience in fox village, the foxes were much easier to deal with than these elves, and the white wolf could easily mingle with some of them.
In order to avoid being discovered by the elves, thus affecting his own investigation, the white wolf imposed an illusion of the wind element in front of him, this illusion actually uses the principle of refraction of light, using the wind element to change the density of the air, which can refract the light behind the white wolf to his body, so that he can hide himself, but if you look closely, you can still see the deflection of the light, so it is also called "pseudo-invisibility technique" by the white wolf
After merging his body with his surroundings, the white wolf leaned into the window of an elven house and began to observe the scene inside.
The elves in the room seemed to be a family of five, thanks to the refraction of the light, they did not notice that the white wolf was peeping, they were quietly enjoying their lunch, they seemed to be vegetarians, and the plates were full of fruits, vegetables, and pastries, but there was not a single meat in sight.
