Because of the completion of the school, most of the students who had been temporarily housed on the first and second floors of the castle have moved out, and the lively old building has returned to its former peace.

Reception room on the ground floor.

Twenty-two elves, including Olivia, were invited.

"Lord Olivia, please taste the specialties of Winterfell."

Knowing that the elf in front of him was probably older than he had been...... The great-grandmother was even older, and coupled with Glenn's reaction and the strength that the other party had shown before, Colin showed the best courtesy.

The young and beautiful female elf stretched out a slender finger, twisted a piece of emerald green mint from the silver plate, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it lightly, her eyes opened slightly, and then put it in her mouth with a little hurry.

Olivia clasped her lips and teeth lightly, closing her eyes and taking in the fragrance of mint.

These mints were one of the eight seeds that Colin brought with him.

For humans, mint is just a spice added to drinks, and it has some refreshing effects, but for elves, this thing is probably equivalent to a harmless drug, and no elf can resist the temptation of mint, which can be seen from the original Elleud.

"I've never tasted such delicious mint."

Olivia responded as she gestured with her eyes to her companions.

For a moment, these elves, who had been patient for a long time, reached out to take mint from the silver platter in front of them.

"If you like, I'll give you some when I go." Colin said generously.

"Thank you for your generosity......" Olivia asked, unfazed, "I don't know what to call you...... Charya's new lord. ”

"Sorry, I forgot to introduce me, my name is Colin Wayne." Colin introduces himself.

Olivia nodded, then immediately turned her head and said with a slight doubt: "I've heard of this name, the magister of the human race, Roman Sagan......"

Colin answered, "That's my teacher." ”

Olivia had a blank expression, and there was obviously a closeness in her eyes.

"No wonder I'm familiar with your scent...... You should know Aloyd, right? ”

"Of course."

Colin showed great respect for the druid who had blessed him, and sat up straight before saying, "Lord Aloyd is a venerable elf. ”

He didn't immediately say anything about the blessing, after all, there was a different opinion among the elves, and it would be embarrassing if the one who came was an opponent who thought that this move would "go against the ancestors and make the mother tree cry".

Olivia bowed slightly, and smiled for the first time after meeting: "After the boy blessed you, he returned to the forest and bragged to me that he had met a gifted human, and then slept for a year after eating two carts of mint......"

The young and beautiful elf said this, and added: "By the way, I am Aloyd's mother. ”

In Colin's mind, it was 10,000 bison galloping by.

What kind of fairy species is this?

The teacher once told him that Aloyd is the cousin of the elf queen, if it is calculated like this, the one in front of him is the queen's aunt?

This generation is scary.

Also, if Aloyd counts half of his own teacher......

Colin stood up and bowed very respectfully, "Please accept my highest respect, Lord Olivia. ”

Olivia smiled and nodded, then folded her hands in front of her chest: "May nature be with you." ”

After learning that the two parties had a special connection, the conversation became more casual and harmonious.

"Your Excellency, can you tell me about the orcs?"

In the history of mankind, there are not many records about orcs, and the two sides have never had a real exchange, either in a confrontation or a fight, and in recent thousands of years, with the establishment of the Twilight Fortress, the two sides have even had few opportunities for direct contact.

Olivia nodded: "The survival mode of orcs is different from that of humans and elves, they are scattered throughout the Wind Plain in the form of tribes, and the battles between tribes are extremely frequent, which on the one hand makes them very internal friction, but on the other hand, it also makes these disgusting monsters aggressive and warlike.

"In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the Twilight Fortress is located in the northern part of the plain, the climate is cold and dry, and the orc tribes who came here are all weak people after losing the battle in the south, I'm afraid the fortress would not have been able to garrison for thousands of years."

Kind of like the early nomads of humanity.

Collin's heart said that it was really similar to his own conjecture.

"Then why haven't these tribes that came to the north mutated as you mentioned?"

"Mutation is a slow process, and with the lifespan of humans, I am afraid that the difference is not observed, and in addition, these tribes who came to the north do not live here for long, they still want to return to the south of the plains, where there is more abundant food and a more comfortable climate."

"Lord Olivia, according to your observations, is there any hope for humanity to counterattack the Plains of Wind Whispering?" Colin asked a question that every generation of Lord Shaya was considering.

"You might be thinking too simply." The elegant elf sighed slightly: "Not all of the orcs are such low-intelligence beasts, there is an orc immortal named Shaman in the powerful tribe in the south of the plains, the ability is very strange, many years ago, we suffered a loss......"

Olivia didn't go into details, but Colin nodded understandingly.

The elves said many years ago, and it must have been many years ago.

As for what those tribes have developed into now, he can't even imagine.

The crushing blows against the orcs all the time have made Colin indeed a little too contemptuous of these guys.

While the two were talking, the rest of the elves had already eaten a lot of mint.

These handsome men and women, who were quite concerned about etiquette, were lying or lying on the soft animal skin sofa at this time.

The spirits who worship nature behave naturally and naturally behave as well.

Olivia was a little embarrassed and said, "It's been a few days since you've eaten mint." ”

Colin had an idea.

"Your Excellency Olivia, if you don't dislike it, I hope to invite you to stay for a while, the fortress is developing some new varieties of mint, and we need a professional elf like you to help us taste one or two."

Of course, this is nonsense, the most important crops of the fortress are still grain beans and vegetables, mint is just the icing on the cake, and the variety with rich crops improves the quality of life.

But it's not impossible to focus a little on mint from today.

If you can keep these powerful elves who have a deep enmity with the orcs, it will of course be a very good deal.

In addition, Colin himself is also very curious about natural spells.

Olivia hesitated.

But seeing the mint in front of me, smelling this fragrance that all elves can't resist, it seems to be very reluctant, and then I think of more varieties of high-quality mint......

"Okay, but we still have a mission to do, so we can only stay for a short time." Olivia thought for a moment: "Ten years at most, you have to leave." ”

Colin: "......"
