Chapter 1319: Temptation, Performance

As for the appearance of the Tove investigator, it was not so important to Xia Duo, although the other party was a relatively acceptable moon elf, but that was all.

Compared to the identity of the other party, the appearance factor is almost negligible.

As Chardo entered the courtyard and cast a scrutinizing gaze at Investigator Comanso, he also felt the other party's gaze agreeing to be scrutinizing.

It's just that the feeling that that gaze gave him was much calmer than the "condescending" he had expected before he came, which also made Xia Duo change his attitude towards the initial preparation.

He calmly approached Tove reluctantly, made a standard greeting between peer elves, and then spoke:

"I heard that there is a guest from Comanso in the territory, and when I see Ms. Tove at this moment, I know what a distinguished guest it is, and the Moon Crown family will have a successor in the next thousand years!"

Tove was noncommittal about the compliment, but she was very pleased with Chardo's attitude, and saw her gracefully pluck a flower from a flower plant that had just grown.

Holding it in both hands, he brought it to Xia Duo, and said in a playful tone:

"You're Iolum's new student, Shado?"

"It's me."

Chateau picked up the flowers that Tove had sold, pinned them to his ear, and said humbly, "Had Lady Tove heard of my shallow reputation in Comanso?" ”

Unexpectedly, this made Tove laugh, "If your reputation is shallow, then there are not many people in the whole of Nesser. ”

Then, she changed her words, "Lord Shado, your elven language is very good, but it still lacks a bit of natural taste. ”

Xia Duo speaks Standard Elf, similar to the standard Mandarin in his hometown, and when the elves themselves speak Elvish, they always bring various accents, or change tones, or even use some special rhetoric.

Form a very personal and exclusive language.

At Nesser, deciphering Elven language is a very specialized skill. However, being able to communicate with elves normally is already better than most humans.

Xia Duo was not very proficient in Elven language, at least not in the way he appeared now, and he could clearly understand the emotions and metaphors of Tove when he said those words.

This was done on purpose, in the hope that Tove's conversation would expose more information beyond the literal meaning.

And he did get something.

Looking at Tove's slightly regretful expression, Xia Duo sighed: "Human life is very short, far less than the elves who are immortals, we humans are more inclined to pragmatism, and I am already very satisfied to learn this new language that is very good inside." ”

Hearing Xia Duo's words, Tove's eyes lit up, emitting a slightly charming light, and his body seemed to become brighter, "So, Lord Xia Duo is very yearning for elven culture?" ”

"It's not about yearning, it's more about understanding the neighbors around you." Xia Duo replied a little coldly.

Understood only from the inside, although these words reveal alienation, but also convey the meaning of yearning, if it is in the exclusive elven language that combines personal emotions and personal information, many things cannot be concealed and hidden.

However, Tove didn't seem to care about this, but showed a look that he only knew now, and said in surprise:

"I almost forgot, Lord Xiado, you are an Oriental, different from ordinary color-resistant people."

In these words, Xia Duo heard arrogance and respect, and even more hidden temptation, testing his attitude towards Nesser.

But Xia Duo didn't understand, and followed the other party's words and said, "Has Lady Tove seen other Orientals?" ”

"Of course, I have seen that there are at least tens of thousands of Orientals living in Comanso, many of whom are engaged in art-related professions, and are highly respected in Comanso and even in the entire elven world."

It turns out that a large group of "fellow villagers" have already laid the groundwork for themselves in advance.

However, Xia Duo did not take Tove's words completely seriously, "There are Orientals respected in the elven society", and "Orientals are respected in the elven society" are completely different things.

He didn't know much about the situation on the main plane, but on the projection plane, he had seen a lot of Orientals engaged in the cultivation industry that even the elves despised very much, and with the druids as his companion, he was almost reduced to the bottom of society.

The few Orientals who have gained the respect of the elven society are not representative of the whole.

Oriental people are also human beings, and there is a natural gap between them and elves, in fact, in the eyes of many elves, Oriental people are more like a high-level pet with their own legendary aura.

The respect they gain does not come from the skills themselves, but from the "masters" behind them, as well as the mysterious ancient oriental kingdom that has not yet been discovered.

Xia Duo doesn't know Tove's true attitude towards the Orientals, but judging from the current communication with the other party, maybe there is goodwill and respect, but that's all, whether it is acting or not is another matter!

Even if it's true, I respect you, but it doesn't prevent me from killing you when there is a conflict between the two sides!

When it comes to the grand narrative of country and race, the warmth shown by the individual always seems very comical.

……

Shado did not expose Tove's hypocritical warmth, and in order to obtain more potential information from the words that were inadvertently revealed, he would patiently continue to talk.

"Lady Tove, do you know Master Wood Rock?"

"Of course I do! Master Mu Yan has been in and out of the court many times to perform in front of the crowned king, but unfortunately I have only seen him perform once, and it is not his most famous "Great Xia Epic"! ”

(The Elven word for "Da Xia" is not the same word as the word for "Da Xia" in Da Xia, the former is the name of Mu Yan's hometown, and the latter is taken from a word in the Elven language, which sounds similar to the Chinese word "Da Xia", which means "the land of the brave to pioneer".) )

Yawen Library

After Tove finished speaking, he hummed a tune that was obviously not elven style, and Tove's singing voice, which should have been vast and long, was hummed by Tove in a light and delicate voice, although it was slightly frivolous, but it also had a unique flavor.

As a human, Xia Duo just listened quietly, but Oreps, who was also an elf, forgot that Tove, who was humming at the moment, was extraordinary, and actually hummed in harmony.

Is this going to be a concert?

Xia Duo complained in his heart, but he didn't stop it.

The addition of Aureps made the originally slightly frivolous tune quickly become thicker, and even Xia Duo, who did not have a high appreciation for songs, felt that he was surrounded by a vast and distant atmosphere at the moment.

It was like an ancient Oriental elder, slowly spreading out an epic scroll in front of him.
