Chapter Twenty-Four: The Land of Eternal Spring
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became strangely silent, and Akachi looked up at the sky slightly, the harsh sunlight made him squint involuntarily, and the expression seemed to be very pleasant. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"You're so considerate. β
He said in a supple tone, as if he agreed with Eko's opinion, but in his heart he was completely rejecting everything.
Yes, Ekko's advice was good and reasonable, and Akachi could sense that the elven man was not only negotiating with him for some value in himself, but that he sincerely wanted to help him. Listening to Eko is like feeling the sun on your body, but the sun will never shine on the darkest part of your heart, just like Eko will never find out why she hates Laureate so much, unless she tears off her body of cover and stands up with blood!
But what's the point? The one who really wants to save himself has come too late, he has already been ruined!
Akachi turned around, and he found that Ekor was still expecting his response, and he secretly clenched his fist and released his hand, and then shouted in a very bad tone, "You are white sparrows, do what you have to do!"
After saying that, Akachi hurriedly turned his head, and if he looked at Ekor more, he would not be able to help but kill.
Behind Akachi came the sound of a chair moving. Ekor left his chair and stood up, but he didn't leave immediately, and it seemed that he still had something to say to Akachi, but at that moment there was a sound of trivial footsteps outside the door.
"Hey, you don't have any strangers here!"
"Misha, how did you get here?"
Egger and Luthman's voices sounded one after another, and Akachi turned his head suddenly, he frowned and listened to the movement outside the house, only to hear Misha's voice say in a hurried tone: "I'll put the... The wanted warrant for the great evil deeds has been brought, so let's see if the person painted on it is the elf you saved!"
"I'll go out and see!"
Ekor gestured to Akach for a moment, then hurried out of the room.
Akaki smiled silently, and he sat quietly by the bed by the window for a few more moments, then stood up and slowly walked around the room, his gaze scanning every part of the room as he turned, the bed, the coffee table, the closet, the somewhat messy stacked baskets, and the chair that Eko had just sat on, as if remembering the place where he had been at peace for a while.
Finally, Akachi walked to the open space in the middle of the room, he raised his right arm to make a stabbing motion in front of him, then turned slightly sideways, bent his left elbow to make a grid position, then turned around and kicked his right foot, then stretched his arms and squatted down, and finally got up and repeated the whole set of movements again, each time he repeated the movement, Akachi's movement was a point faster than the last time, and in the end, his body stretched out like a bird fluttering its wings, but the most amazing thing was that all the movements seemed to be carefully calculated, and they narrowly swept past the items piled up in the house, without triggering a discordant soundγ The only fly in the ointment was that Akachi lacked a weapon in his hand, but it didn't bother him, he knew exactly where what he needed was waiting for him, and he could get it tonight.
Arcach repeated the thrust, block, and spin over and over again, until he stopped when he realized that someone was approaching him, and the person who came was, unsurprisingly, Ekor again.
"This place may not be safe anymore. β
Ekor explained with a worried expression, "We will try to arrange a new address today, and we will be able to move there early tomorrow morning at the earliest. Of course, the best option is for you to leave with us immediately for Elada. β
Ekor waited for a moment, and when he realized that he had just said a statement of opinion, not an inquiry that Akaqi was willing to respond to, he awkwardly added, "Come with us to Elada, okay?"
Moments later, Akachi responded.
"I want to be quiet. He said, looking out the window again.
Ekor sighed in frustration.
When it was time for dinner, Echo came to visit Akaqi again, and was relieved to see that her elven companions were still in the house with all their beards and tails. The sigh seemed to call Akachi out of his own world, and he looked up at Ekor with a questioning expression, who smiled at him in a friendly manner, but then Ekor realized that he didn't know what to say to Akachi other than smiling.
Through a few conversations, Eco could only be sure of one thing - her fellow elven was very guarded. If you try to present your opinion to Akaci, or try to persuade him, he will most likely look at the ceiling or stare out the window without responding, and if you ask him a question, he will give a headache and then let you talk to yourself as if you were watching a good show. His mood swings are also confusing, and what was supple in the previous moment can suddenly turn into resentment.
In the face of such an awkward elf fellow, what other suitable topic could Eko come up with?
While Ekor was distressed, Akachi asked him a question for the first time.
"What kind of place is Elada?"
Ekor was stunned for a moment, and her initially slightly confused expression became gentle.
"It was a valley surrounded by snow-capped mountains, and the towering Balakachi Mountains blocked the cold winds from the permafrost plains of the north, so Elada's year-round climate was like spring, which earned it the name 'spring breeze' in the Elvish language. I'm sure you've heard of Elada's famous Spring Spring, which originates from the snowmelt on the Balakachi Mountains. As mentioned in the lyrics of "Elada", the clear spring water brought by the Eternal Spring Spring watered every inch of Elada's land. β
After noticing that Akachi was listening to his description with relish, Echo continued, encouragedly: "There is also a beautiful waterfall in the northern part of the valley, where goats and moose are grazed on both sides of the waterfall to make the most authentic cheese and fine leather products, and the crops grown there are very good, and there are large lavender fields in the south, which are beautiful when they bloom!"
"Sounds pretty livable. Akachi exclaimed with fascination.
"The most important thing is that the people there are very nice, whether they are elves or humans. However, in Elada, Elvish is the first language, and the lingua franca is the second language, so my lingua franca is a bit lame. β
"Are the people there easy to trust?" Akachi asked again.
"Yes, we prefer to trust others rather than suspicion and suspicion. β
"No wonder I don't think it's hard to gain your trust. Akachi closed his eyes slightly.
Ekor smiled and asked, "You're criticizing me, aren't you?"
"You're a white sparrow, think about such a problem yourself. Akachi's voice grew softer.
Ekor could see that Akachi had lost the desire to talk again, but it was a good start for the elven man to show interest in Elada. Eko believed that with a little more time, Akachi would be convinced. He said goodnight to Akachi expectantly, and then went downstairs to his room.
Just as Ekor stepped up the last step, he suddenly realized that Akachi's words and actions were too unusual.
What did those last two sentences mean, and why did his expression look like it was ...... Farewell!"
Ekor suddenly turned and rushed back, slamming the door open almost desperately. The windows were open, the curtains were fluttering wildly in the night breeze, and Akachi was gone.
