After waking up the next day, Ivas took Lily to the place written on the power of attorney.

They had to turn most of the fifth ring before they finally reached their destination.

It was a rather secluded villa, in a relatively remote corner. It doesn't look very big, but you can tell from the appearance that it is very well cared for. The walls are covered with vines, and the houses are encased in clusters of chestnut trees that have not yet bloomed. The sunlight shining from the sky also dimmed as a result.

Eivas walked down a jungle trail with some moist black soil and pebbles on the ground. The feeling of walking up is not the same as walking on the road.

In Avalon, there are many of these cobblestone roads in the countryside. But in the Land of the Giant Trees, they are a rarity.

"That's it, about that."

Ivas double-checked the nearby markers and confirmed their exact location.

Suddenly, the leaves swayed and rustled. The cold spring breeze blew across his cheeks, and Ivas's shoulder-length hair moved with it.

The cold wind here seemed to have life, laughing and trying to slip into Ivus's neckline......

The next moment, Ivus keenly reached out and pulled out a strange creature from the neckline of his clothes.

After being pinched by Ehuas, it gradually detached from its invisibility.

"No manners!"

It cried out loudly, as sharp as a child who could not distinguish between male and female: "Let me see what's wrong!" ”

"It's ......"

Lily leaned over with some curiosity.

I saw that thing gradually emerge. It looked about the height of Ivus's index finger, had transparent wings covered with colored film like dragonflies, and the overall appearance was a slightly greenish gold, and it looked like it had a human-like body and a beautiful and delicate appearance.

"It's 'our good neighbors.'"

Ivus pinched it with two fingers and said with a smile, "It's still a little one." ”

"Who's a little guy!"

It was still struggling in Ivace's hand, trying to push away Ivus's fingers with its palm, and suddenly stopped struggling, and put its hands on Ivus's fingers: "I'm already a mature lady!" ”

Elves are genderless creatures because they do not rely on sexual reproduction for reproduction...... They were all "planted" by the fairy queen, and their lifespans were much shorter than those of short-lived humans.

But on the other hand, goblins are free to decide what they call themselves. Whether it is "Mr.", "Miss", "Ms.", "Mother-in-law", "Uncle", "Sister" can be.

Maybe some fairy uncle will come back after a while and become a fairy grandmother, and it's possible - goblins are such free creatures.

And even so, goblins are basically called according to their "age......

“…… It's too early for you to be called 'madam'. ”

Ivas let go of his hand and held her in the palm of his hand to a place closer to his face, "You're still too young, little miss." What should I call it? ”

Just by looking at her size, Eivas knew it was a newborn elf.

Fairies do not age or grow up normally, they are born in only two states - when they have wings, they will be as young as a teenager or girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, no matter what their age; After losing their wings, they will quickly become about half a meter tall middle-aged and elderly, and then quickly become half a meter tall old men and old women......

It's like a beautiful flower turning into a fruit, and the fruit rotting into a core.

And for elves, age only determines their size. A newborn leprechaun is about the size of a palm of an adult male, and a newborn leprechaun can even sit on top of a flower. When a goblin grows old enough to lose its wings, it grows almost half an arm's height.

The goblin in front of him was only about three months old. It could even be smaller.

Elves only need two years to reach adulthood, survive twenty years to lose their wings, and then live for another twenty years.

But many elves don't lose their wings until they die. They would rather die in a beautiful state, even if they lose half of their lifespan.

"My name is Neriam!"

The golden goblin shouted, "I'm a year and a half old, and I'm already a mature lady!" ”

Although she looked a little dissatisfied, she didn't steal or fly away. It's like expecting something.

Apparently after Ivas called her "our kind neighbor", she had a little more affection for Ivace.

The fairy queen herself doesn't care about this title, but the elves are different. They are like children, they care very much about how they are called, especially whether they are respected, so "scientific name" is a despised title for them. If people call them "our kind neighbors" or "happy spirits", which are friendly or respectful, they will do their best to show their kindness and joy in front of others.

Conversely, if people call them "goblins", "winged creatures" or even "witches" and "monsters", they will lose their temper and try to show their strength to retaliate, intimidate, and thus make those people feel real fear.

Usually fine in early childhood...... Once it loses its wings, beauty turns into ugliness, and it is very easy to arouse people's fear, disgust, and vigilance.

And at this stage, they can easily become monsters that need to be defeated - although there is no difference and change in nature, as long as the goblins are subjected to malice, discrimination, contempt and other undignified treatment, they will fight back several times, so that as long as they lose their good-looking appearance, they will immediately become monsters.

In any case, the elves have no complicated thoughts, they are as simple as a blank sheet of paper or a mirror...... Therefore, as long as you grasp the skills, in fact, the goblins are also very easy to control.

Those who are particularly good at communicating with goblins are called "goblin scholars". This is not a profession, but a title like "ritual master", "curse master", "healer".

They will be surrounded by many powerful elves, and may even receive magical spells from the elves.

The defector female journalist "Janet Boyman" that Ivas had previously met during the advancement ceremony was a well-known goblin scholar. She just accidentally strayed into the fairy cave, and relied on her sharp teeth to fool a goblin, and got the gift of healing spells from the other party.

"Alright then, Honorable Lady Neriam."

Ivas was as kind as he could, bowing his head slightly in respect - he could actually address the other person as "Ma'am" in the first place. But he deliberately refers to the other party as "little miss", and immediately calls the other person "lady" after the other party expresses his dissatisfaction, so as to bring Neriam a sense of satisfaction that his attitude and opinions are respected.

Sure enough, Nelim's whole body suddenly became fluttery as if she had drunk too much.

She exclaimed, "I like you so much, pretty human!" I want to be your friend! ”

"Okay."

Ivus smiled and agreed.

He thought for a moment, pulled a long leaf from the chestnut tree next to him, and folded it into a circle.

"Then this is my gift to you."

As he spoke, he handed it to Nelim.

Neriam made an "oh-" sound, happily taking the leaf ring with both hands and holding it in her arms.

"What is this, human friend!" She shouted.

"It's a crown. Or a princess crown, or a hat...... What do you like? ”

"I like princess crowns, the silver ones with pearls!"

Nelim said happily, "Thank you, human friend! I love your gift! ”

As she spoke, she placed the crown of leaves on her head.

I saw the green light flowing, and in an instant it became a real princess crown.

Lily's eyes widened suddenly.

- Is that okay?!
