7. Sabrina
Leaving the tavern, Roy had planned to take a trip to the Magic Guild next to the Elven Academy in Uptown.
There are junior appraisers who can help people identify various artifacts related to magic.
Roy was going to find out if the light in his palm was magic, and if it was, then he was going to learn some magic-related subjects.
It was only when he reached the intersection of Brown Street that he found two elves standing at the entrance, and they were checking the pedestrians entering Brown Street.
The entire Brown Street was under martial law, and it was only allowed to enter and not leave, which made the residents of the whole street panic.
Mrs. Winnie, the proprietress of the apothecary shop at the corner of the street, stood on the steps outside the shop, watching the two elves patrol with some boredom, chatting with the proprietor of the fruit shop next door.
The Nightblade Leopard lying in her arms stared at Roy viciously, his amber eyes full of wariness.
The neighbors on the street all ran out into the street, and everyone was talking about what was going on, and the elf patrol came and put the whole Brown Street under martial law.
Unable to leave Brown Street for a while, Roy headed home.
As soon as he reached the door, Roy saw an elf beauty in a white silk dress walking from the direction of the street with a few books around her arms and a pair of sandals with a strap wrapped around her legs.
The legs wrapped in the skirt were really long, and the little section that was exposed was as white as ivory.
She was Sabrina, the eldest daughter of her neighbor, Miss Gillian, and was one of the few tall elves, at least a head taller than Roy.
Her complexion was fair, and her eyes were like two magnificent emeralds.
Among the elves, only the Wood Elves have green eyes and a tall body.
However, Sabrina inherited the delicacy of the Silver Moon Elf in other places, such as the straight nose bridge and crystal clear pointed ears......
Like Moira, the neighborhood believes that Sabrina is a hybrid of the Silver Moon Elves and the Wood Elves.
Needless to say, her mother was the Lady Gillian who sold fish for a living, and her father, who was guessed to be a wood elf.
Lady Gillian never mentions Sabrina and Moira's father.
Although the two are sisters, the elder sister has the blood of the wood elves, and the other sister has a little blood of the dark moon elves.
Roy is not very familiar with his sister Sabrina, but he has a good relationship with his sister Moira.
Sabrina attends the Elven Academy in Castletown and is a member of the Choir of the Statue of Liberty, and is rarely at home.
Moira is a very introverted elf, even a bit autistic, always locking herself in her home.
"Good afternoon...... Sabrina! ”
Roy actually prefers to call her the big white goose......
However, once he shouted like this, he would definitely anger Sabrina, and as long as she caught him, Roy would inevitably be beaten fat.
Especially after she went to school, Roy couldn't beat her anyway.
After being beaten a few times, Roy's mouth became much more honest.
Sabrina, who was standing outside the courtyard gate, turned her head and saw that it was Roy, gave Roy a quick look, turned around and walked into the courtyard.
Every time......
She walked into the yard with her head held high, her sexy body wrapped in her skirt rhythmically moving with every step, leaving only Roy with a big back.
……
The two courtyards are actually separated by a low wall.
Roy put the bucket into the kitchen, put away the fishing rod and hook, and washed his feet by the way, when he heard Sabrina's voice next door:
"Moira, where are you?"
"Sister, I'm upstairs!"
Roy thought it was time to put away the clothes he had dried on the patio last night, and climbed barefoot to the second floor.
Just in time to see the next terrace, Sabrina also climbed up to the second floor.
She placed a paper bag on the small table in front of Moira, and sat down on a square stool beside Moira.
Moira saw Roy appear on the opposite terrace, glanced at him, put down the book she was holding, and then asked her sister Sabrina:
“…… Why did you come back so early today? ”
Her voice is a little rustle, probably because of her skin color, she usually prefers to wear black dresses.
Sabrina casually threw off the sandals on her feet, curled up her feet on the chaise longue, and stretched her slender body lazily before saying:
"The Statue of Liberty was stolen last night, all the activities were canceled today, Brown Street didn't know what was going on, the whole street was under martial law, and there was no way to go to the fish market to help, so I had to come back."
Moira covered her mouth with her hand in some surprise, and then asked in a low voice:
"The chalice in front of the temple's holy pool?"
Sabrina casually glanced across the terrace and saw that Roy had already left with his dry clothes in his arms, before nodding and saying:
"That's it, I always have a glass of water in my hand, and when someone comes to pray for blessings, the priest will pour them a glass......
Moira blinked, "How did they come up with the idea of stealing this?" ”
"Probably for the gold and gems on it, who knows!"
Sabrina acted indifferent, and although she was a member of the temple choir, the loss of a chalice in the temple had little to do with her.
Anyway, it wasn't the old organ that was lost......
She was a little distracted, and she didn't expect a nasty guy to pop up next to the railing of the terrace next door.
"Did you catch the thief who stole the Holy Grail?" Roy asked Sabrina.
If he hadn't been very curious, Roy wouldn't have taken the initiative to come up and talk to Sabrina.
Every time the two communicated, Sabrina didn't have a good face.
But this time Sabrina didn't scold Roy, but put away her lazy look, and said with a straight face:
"No, you know how ...... the guards are Excellent, how can it be caught all at once! ”
Roy habitually retracted his head and responded:
"Oh yes!"
Next, Roy ran downstairs to take a shower and change into crisp clothes.
Castletown Harbour has a cool sea breeze in the summer, so it's not very hot, and on days when there is no air conditioning and electric fans, it feels comfortable to lie in bed with the windows open.
When it was time for dinner, Roy ran to the kitchen and made a fish stew......
For dinner, Roy ate alone.
Ms. Belinda did not return, probably because the museum was too busy.
It was only after it was completely dark that Ms. Gillian came back from the fish market with a cart.
The two elven guards also ran to Lady Gillian's house next door and chatted with Lady Gillian for a while, as if they were investigating Jefferson, who died during the day.
Roy waited until the two elven guards left Lady Gillian's house, ran to the terrace, held the railing of the terrace with both hands, and asked the elven guards outside the gate:
"Haven't the seafarers been caught yet?"
The two elven guards stopped, as they had seen in the tavern during the day.
They didn't want to say anything, but when they saw that it was Roy, one of them stopped and replied: "Not yet, the other party has diplomatic immunity." ”
"Oh!" Roy agreed.
The elven patrol asked casually:
“…… Do you know Jefferson? ”
Roy replied calmly: "I've seen him on the street before, but we haven't spoken." ”
"Okay."
The Elven Patrol felt that he couldn't find any useful information on Roy, so he glanced at each other and walked next door, where they had to investigate the other residents of Brown Street tonight.
"Hey...... Hey ......"
Roy also wants to talk to the two Elven Rangers about the theft of the Liberty Temple......
But the elven patrolman left the neighbor's yard without looking back, and went into the next house.
……
At night in Castletown, the sea breeze cools the whole city.
Many times, Roy would lie on a chair on the terrace and chat with Moira on the opposite terrace, as he is now.
When it comes to what happened during the day, Roy can only describe it as 'terrible'.
Moira at night, perhaps because she feels more secure under the cover of night.
So she's more active at this time than during the day.
And when she's in a bad mood and doesn't plan to come out to meet 'people', even if she's standing on the terrace, Roy can't spot her.
I don't know when Roy used to tell Moira about some of the encounters during the day.
For example, when he met the group of seafarers today, and later fought in the tavern, Roy said it in one go.
In the night, Moira's eyes were bright.
Although the two terraces were almost five meters apart, Roy could still see that there seemed to be some sparkle in her eyes.
She had just taken a shower, was wearing a loose tube skirt, and her wet hair was scattered.
A small face is extraordinarily pure, except for the fact that the skin is a little gray, everything else has inherited Lady Gillian, more like a silver moon elf......
In the realm of the Silver Moon Elves, the status of half-blood elves is lower than that of half-elves like Roy, and they are more likely to be criticized.
"I got it......"
That's all Moira said.
……
In the distance, the dock by the sea was brightly lit, and the tide would be after the wee hours of the morning, and Ms. Gillian had rested early after dinner, and she had to rush to the dock around the morning to fetch the fish.
The life of the elves in the lower classes is usually very hard.
Although Roy doesn't agree with her attitude towards life, he admires her hard work.
She is the kind of person who is extremely persistent in life, insisting on selling fish at the fish market on the dock every day to support her two daughters.
Moira is cared for by her like a flower in a greenhouse.
Compared to Lady Gillian, Roy's mother was more casual, often leaving Roy alone at home, and the half-elf son had become another Roy for so long that he didn't even notice it.
Over the past year or so, Roy has gradually integrated into the environment.
Thinking of the flame of light that would always appear in the palm of his hand tomorrow when he went to the Magic Guild to identify it, Roy fell asleep in bed with anticipation......
