Chapter 596: Yu Clan King City
The thin morning light gradually spreads across the sky, and the breeze soaks the faint fragrance of the forest and flowers, rolling up the leaves that are still verdant.
Ivan looked up at the sky not far away, the dreamy shadows of the trees, and the glowing points of light faintly appeared, like the unextinguished starlight in the night sky. It was so easy to get to the most important city of the Yu Clan, and to be honest, he was a little surprised.
Perhaps, the scene in front of him made him lose his mind.
This is a city, right? Looking at the buildings of varying heights, he thought, this must be a city. However, the city is more like a marvelous wood. Freya said that the guards were all on high ground, and it was enough to go into the bushes, and Ivan thought that he needed to look carefully for the bushes, but when he came here, he found that there were bushes everywhere. The feather clan's hut is built next to the tree, surrounded by the tree, embedded between the trees, and the winding path is full of vibrant flowers and plants. The climate in the city is neither cold nor hot, and flowers bloom all year round.
Even Freya's "Castle of Rosene" doesn't have to look for it at all—the towering tree in the middle of the city. At first, Ivan thought there was another kind of barrier around the tree, but Freya said it was the glow of a heavenly elf. There is an enchantment, and in the canopy, there is a unique realm called "The Land of Sidir".
"Yafil was able to discover the kingdom of Sidir!" Freya commented with an expression of disbelief, "Isn't it strange that the kingdom of the heavenly goblins is in our royal city? The barrier on the tree is used to protect the Heavenly Elves. That tree is called the 'Tree of Faryn', which means the tree of the heavenly elves!"
And then - under the realm of the elves, one floor at a time like a hanging garden. It was their destination, the castle of the Feather Clan.
What a marvelous view.
“...... There are no walls here. ”
Stepping into the garden behind the castle, Ivan looked at the Feather Clan Castle in front of him with a feeling of joy or speechlessness. At first glance, there seems to be no precautionary facilities around the castle, and it is almost impossible to make an expression. The morning light had not yet awakened the beautiful city of the Feather Clan, and the guards on duty dragged tired shadows across the sky. Ivan and Freya stood under an arch covered with white rose vines, which followed the shape of the roots. The small white flowers in full bloom covered the figures of the two of them, and the fragrance was overflowing.
"You don't need walls. However, there are still a lot of guards near the castle, so it's probably time for a change of shift, right?"
Freya habitually folded her arms and glanced at the bud-like watchtower above her head. If you haven't seen the upper neighborhood of Alcatia City. Ivan must have thought that these watchtowers, as well as some of the buildings in the city, were strangely built. It is connected to the castle by a narrow bridge, and they did not fall because of floating stones. The city of Arcatia was also built with the kind of stone from Romesa that could be suspended in the air.
A small group of guards flew out of the watchtower, their long, narrow wings of pure white like clouds. Ivan dragged Freya to the ground.
"That's it. When the guard's figure disappeared on the other side of the Tree of Falynn, Freya stood up first, "Hurry up here, only I know this way, and the guards will never find it!"
The plan to infiltrate the castle of the Feather Clan was a success. It's a bit of a surprise.
Freya led Ivan around the corridor built under the roots of the trees, through a passage underground, and through a round window near the ceiling. Outside the window is a flower-filled courtyard. The two of them bent over through the flowers, up a short staircase, and finally reached a modest hallway.
"This is the maid's hallway, and the maid should all be cleaning outside. Freya craned her neck to look at the arch at one end of the hallway, and let out a long sigh of relief. Leaning against the wall next to him, "The guards won't come here." We're still a little way from here, and Daphne is above where she used to like to be on high ground. With that, Freya straightened her long wind-dried hair, "Are you going to 'sneak into' Daphne's house?"
Freya's eyes were shining......
"There must be guards where Devine lives. Ivan thought about it for a moment and said. So far, it has been very smooth, however, it is very uncomfortable to be so smooth. Did Devany really not set any traps? Or was Freya too familiar with the city of Cadolissa and cleverly avoided all of Daphne's traps? Devany had already mastered this castle, and the so-called "true queen" might be in this castle, and since Daphne dared to frame Freya, she must have been prepared.
"Nope...... Well, well, I haven't been there before, but ......," Freya thought with her arms crossed, "I don't know what the hell was going on with Daphne on her mind. She glanced at Ivan's hair—the blood was no longer visible—and then lowered her head again, "Then what do you say we should do?
She lowered her arms and looked at Ivan with blazing eyes.
"Let's go over there and have a look. Ivan said. Daphne may not have thought that they would go directly to her residence to investigate, and maybe she would be able to rescue Na'er by surprise.
A dark shadow reflected in the sunlight at the top of the staircase. Ivan immediately turned around, picked up the magic dagger, and a feather maid dressed in green walked into his sight.
“...... And, Her Majesty the Queen!"
Ivan was just about to rush up and knock the maid unconscious, but the maid's words stopped him in his tracks. The maid covered her mouth in surprise, she used the lingua franca, as if she wanted to speak to Ivan.
"No, do you want to take Your Majesty out of the city? No, Lord Snow Ling will be angry!" With that, she turned to Freya and quickly said something to Freya in Romesa.
Ivan couldn't help but step out of the way. Freya's eyes widened, surprised.
Just now...... Does the maid call Freya "Her Majesty"?
At this time, Freya wore long hair without any ornaments, and the blue and white dress that she had changed into on Daphne's ark not long ago was also crumpled, and she did not look like a queen at all. No, that's not the point, the maid in the castle still seems to see Freya as the real queen, and from what she said, it seems that Freya didn't just return to the castle at all, she said that Ivan was going to take Freya out of the city, did she think Freya was in the city in the first place?
Then, after listening to the maid's words, Freya took a sharp breath and turned her head to stare at Ivan in a daze, as if asking for his opinion.
But I don't understand Romesa...... Ivan thought helplessly, what the hell is going on?
Frowning slightly, Freya spoke to the maid in Romesa for a while, then raised her hand to push Ivan away. The maid stood there watching them until Freya pushed Ivan to the end of the hallway.
"Daphne didn't seem to be back. Freya whispered with a stern face. She glanced back at the maid, then looked up again, once again with a look of help.
"That...... You can go to where I live first...... (To be continued)
