Chronicle of the Elf Realm

"Wow ah ah" there was a loud bang, and dust flew on the ground.

"Are you okay?" Zou Jongren, who landed perfectly, pulled up Sijia, who was grinning.

"I think I'll get used to it if I fall a few more times." Si Jia took in the cold air while holding his waist up.

"Why don't they come down?" Sijia pointed to the two women floating half a meter above the ground like two enshrined Buddhas and whispered.

"Well, I guess you don't know that although there are flight altitude restrictions in the valleys, low-altitude flying is still possible as long as it does not exceed the altitude of the lowest mountain." Zou Jingren said.

Si Jia was so excited that he wanted to throw someone over his shoulder. Boss, why didn't you tell me earlier? You should have told me earlier that I had a long journey in Bei Valley and could save myself walking.

As if he knew the resentment in Si Jia's heart, Zou Jiao patted Si Jia's shoulder comfortingly: "But using wings also consumes physical strength. It is not unlimited. It's just that relatively speaking, flying consumes less physical energy than using magic." That’s a lot less. But I think it’s better for you, Si Jia, to take more walks.”

"The one who knows me is the boss." Sijia felt no resentment after hearing this explanation.

His physical strength is naturally not as good as those two great gods. After all, those two can use large-scale attack magic like running water, without any pressure. You must know that the power of using magic requires physical strength at a ratio of one to ten. It's output. Tasijia should just accept his fate and walk. Quan should exercise his leg strength with the Zou Jiao people.

"Boss, what are you talking about in the Central Valley?" Si Jia pushed aside the branches that hung down from time to time to block the road, while turning to chat with the Zou Jiao people next to him.

They were now walking on the path that led to the valley deep in the central valley.

There are many strange flowers and plants here, the most common ones being the peace flower. The dry land under the soles of the feet is covered with layers of dead branches and leaves. There is a crunching sound when stepping on it with bare feet. Si Jia felt itchy on the soles of his feet several times. But probably because I was born with an elf's body, it doesn't hurt when I step on it with bare feet. Maybe it's because the thickness of the cuticle on the soles of my feet has increased many times.

From time to time, there are creatures that he doesn't recognize at all appearing next to him, but most of them are docile, herbivorous, small animals with aura. Si Jia is thinking about whether he should buy an illustrated book of creatures from the Elf Domain to take a look after he returns. There are many species that are not found on the earth. Even the creatures that exist in the human world are relatively different, such as coat color and body shape.

Slowly walking up the winding path, Sijia could not help but be intoxicated by the faint fragrance of flowers blown by the wind. Sure enough, the natural scenery was infinitely beautiful, and the small forest path was a joy to wander around.

Sika was thinking about it, and secretly glanced back at Inenji. The latter had already dropped to a position only twenty or thirty centimeters above the ground. He had his eyes closed with a leisurely expression, and he flapped his wings leisurely to move his body forward slowly. It's like sitting on an automatic crawler track, she can move effortlessly, and her rather lazy posture is another kind of beauty.

Si Jia quickly turned his face away before she noticed it. If he looked at it for a while longer, he would be afraid that his heartbeat was pounding, his face would be red, and he might have a nosebleed.

After the young man withdrew his gaze, Inenji became silent. Only the Mermaid King on the side raised his eyebrows slightly at the subtle change in her expression.

I am really curious about the relationship between a mysterious bronze queen like you and this ordinary-looking boy. The Mermaid King thought to himself, and then glanced at the broad and tall figure in front of him, with a slight smile in his eyes. meaning. Could it be possible that he is just like me and that idiot boy?

Soon after walking forward on the path, all three except Sijia keenly realized that something was wrong.

The environment here has changed. It's getting too weird

Zou Jongren unconsciously attached the hilt of the cold iron knife to his right hand. An ominous premonition passed through his mind, and his steps couldn't help but get faster and faster. Finally, he simply started running. Although Sijia was confused, he still ran hard after Zou Jongren. With.

My eyes suddenly became enlightened.

Grassland, sunshine, blue lake.

That's how it should be. But what was reflected in front of their eyes was:

Blood-stained grass, black clouds filling the sky, and corpses covering most of the lake

With a "clang" sound, Zou Jiaoren firmly grasped the handle of the knife with his right hand, and Longquan Mihu Che made a crisp sound in the scabbard. He had a cold look on his face.

Sijia's face turned from shock to slowly becoming dull, and then gradually evolved into fear and pain. His body fell back and kept falling back.

Until he bumped into something, he jumped and turned around as if he had been greatly frightened. The beautiful and indifferent face with sea-blue pupils suddenly broke in. It was Inenji.

She is behind him.

An indescribable emotion that was suppressed deep in my heart seemed to have caught the fuse of a mine of fire.

It exploded in the young man's heart. The aftermath spread throughout the heart.

"What do you want?" Sika suddenly roared at Inenji, his voice twisted and sharp, full of deep pain.

It's always going to be like this

Yi Nianji said nothing, but frowned slightly.

"Little Golden Retriever, why are you so excited?" The Mermaid King didn't understand why Si Jia suddenly lost his temper towards Inenji.

She had seen the bloody scene in front of her before, and even the bloodier ones, so she was used to it and didn't have much reaction, just a little disgusted.

No girl likes to fight and kill. Both the queen and the female general.

But this has nothing to do with Yi Nianji. Little Golden Retriever did something wrong, and the Mermaid King stood up for Yi Nianji.

Sijia's roar drew Zou Jingren's attention back from the matter in front of him, and he looked at the pale Sijia in silence.

Sijia clenched his fists tightly and lowered his head. Suddenly, drops of water fell drop by drop from the place where he lowered his head. They fell on the grass, cracked and disappeared.

"Why, why on earth?"

"Why do you want me to see this kind of scene again? Why do you want me to see this kind of scene so much?"

Wasn't it enough that there were dead wolf corpses all over the place last time? Wasn't it shocking enough for me? You specifically asked me to come to the Central Valley at the beginning. It must be for this reason, right? How many times do you want me to see the horrific death scene before you are willing to accept it? What is your purpose? What? Life and death, other people’s death is just something you want me to accept and adapt to.

You are obviously not a girl like this, you are not

Sijia raised his head, his eyes were ferociously red, he was indeed crying.

"I don't like hurting. I don't like killing either. So, no matter how many times I try, I can never get used to being like you, being indifferent to life like you."

"Hey, little Golden Retriever, don't go too far." The Mermaid King was obviously angry at Si Jia's fierce words.

But Sika didn't seem to hear it at all, and just continued to vent his fear towards Inenji.

"Do you know that you are so indifferent? It's really annoying."

Why can you still look indifferent even though there are so many pitiful corpses dying in front of you?

Just like how could you take the lives of hundreds of wolves without hesitation without changing your expression?

Other people's lives are so insignificant to you.

Obviously, obviously in my heart, the girl holding my hand in my heart, she is so beautiful, so kind, she is so good and so good in my heart.

"Si Jia, calm down." Zou Jiaoren suddenly pressed Si Jia's shoulders hard to stop the trembling of his body.

"Boss me"

"Think about it carefully, isn't Miss Yi Nian Si always with us? This kind of thing has nothing to do with her." Zou Jiao thought about the title and then explained to Yi Nian Si.

Although the Bronze Queen's ability could really do this, his swordsman's intuition told him that this matter had absolutely nothing to do with her, and faintly, faintly, he felt that something was very wrong with the other party.

"Boss"

"Sijia, I know you are afraid. You are afraid. It is fear that makes you make misjudgments and speak indiscriminately. Think about what the older generation said, fear is the thing that is most likely to disturb the mind. But think about it, We are all with you, so it's okay. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, calm down." Zou Jongren's tone was like a very reliable big brother, which could make people feel at ease.

Si Jia's tears suddenly stopped.

Zou Jongren's words woke him up. He was indeed in excessive panic and fear just now, which was why he suddenly burst out those bad memories and the fear and uneasiness that had been buried in his heart due to repeated death experiences.

And all of this made him have inexplicable emotions towards Inenji.

In his heart, he always believed in the beauty of Inen Temple. No matter what, he did not want anything bad to be related to his sacred girl, so when facing reality, he hoped that she would not be like that, so that he would have reason to kill her. Cut off the bad connections with her so that he can always keep her perfect image.

How can the girl he loves be bad? Even if she is bad, she should become good to him.

But just now, he really couldn't deceive himself anymore, and the idea that he had been maintaining before was suddenly shattered, which he couldn't accept.

So to use the girl you like as the target of venting is really bad and inferior.

"Okay, little Golden Retriever, apologize to Inenji quickly, and she will forgive you."

The Mermaid King originally wanted to say this, but unfortunately he stopped mid-sentence due to shock.

"It's my fault. I know you don't like it, I know you'll be scared, I know you've worked very hard and been strong, I know it's really hard for you, but for me, for me I have forced too many things on you to achieve the goal you want to achieve, Si Jia."

Inenji stepped forward and hugged Sijia, and let the latter's head rest on her shoulder. Her hands gently wrapped around Sijia's waist, comforting him, and the expression on her face not only softened, Her tone was also gentler than ever before, and her whole body seemed to be bathed in the radiance of the Virgin Mary.

Sijia was stunned, holding the girl in his arms, two lines of clear tears falling down his cheeks.

What, like this, I’m just me, I’m just me, so I don’t have any reason to let myself be weak anymore.

"But, this matter has nothing to do with me. Can you believe me?"

"I believe it," Sijia choked.

"I'm sorry for letting you see such cruelty again, and I'm sorry for putting you under such great psychological pressure from the beginning. So, Sijia, I'm sorry."

Inenji let go of Sijia, and held Sijia's wet cheeks with his white and soft hands. The tenderness in his sea-blue eyes seemed to melt away like water, making Sijia completely overwhelmed and helpless. Extricate yourself.

Si Jia's pupils dilated slightly

"This time, just wait for me outside. I can go by myself." Inenji said softly.

After she finished speaking, she let go of the hand holding Sijia's cheek, and glanced at the Mermaid King and Zou Jiaoren. They both nodded to her, indicating that they wanted to go with her.

Although the two of them were still in a state of shock due to Inenji's sudden intimacy with Sika, they were somewhat unable to adjust.

The former is because they have never been in love and have never seen men and women embracing each other. The latter is because they were surprised to gain an unexpected understanding of Inen Temple. Of course, there is another thing in common.

After all, this is really more surprising than Mars hitting the earth. The queen actually hugged an unknown boy. That was a treatment that no elf had ever enjoyed. If this spreads to the Elf Realm, it will not explode. Maybe it's not about exploding, but about turning everything upside down.

"I'll go first. You wait for me outside."

Inenji walked around Sika, and the three of them were ready to find out.

Sijia's figure stood upright there, lonely and thin, resembling Jinsong.

Just when Inenji was about to leave the range that Sika could reach, the corners of his mouth suddenly turned upward.

He didn't dare to hold the girl's wrist, but turned around with a forced smile on his pale face: "Even if I don't go this time, what can I do next time? Next time, I can do it every time." I've escaped every time, but I let you go every time."

"At least, before the time comes, I will try my best to help you bear the burden." Although Inenji said this, he seemed a little lacking in confidence.

"Wouldn't that be completely opposite to the purpose of bringing me here?"

"Even then, the person who makes the decision must and always should be you. I can't force you to follow my will."

"Then, I decided to go with you."

Inenji suddenly raised his head and stared at the young man's face. His expression was more determined than ever before, and he didn't look like he was lying at all.

"Actually, you don't have to force yourself."

Sijia's eyes suddenly wandered, without focus.

"I hope I won't be so cowardly all the time."

His tone was leisurely, as if he was about to be blown away by the wind, but he turned around again, just spinning in circles like a dandelion.

I hope that I can be as calm and perfect as you, I hope that I can also become stronger, I hope that I can help you one day, and I hope that I can protect you one day, instead of letting you always protect me and take responsibility for me, instead of just blindly Only with the help of the boss can I survive in this land of jungle. Although I am very kind and well-intentioned, I am too weak. I am afraid of everything and can't do anything.

If you originally wanted to train me to be a powerful guy who is not afraid of death, who can calmly pull the trigger in the face of the enemy, and who can eradicate the enemy with precision and cruelty, I hope I can fulfill your wish.

I was originally the guy you chose, wasn't it? If I couldn't help, then you would have lost the value of me, a guy who was abandoned by everyone, in the first place.

How could I watch that happen, watch you get into trouble even though I knew nothing about the future.

"I will try hard. I will get used to it. After all, there will be many deaths that I need to face in the future, right?" Sijia asked rhetorically.

His gaze suddenly became a magnet again, condensing the magic of attraction, making people unable to look away.

Inenji nodded slightly.

In that case, blindly escaping, what should I do when there is no way to avoid it? Taking advantage of the courage your gentleness has given me now, I choose to accept it all bravely.

Accept the so-called cruel reality of life. One day will eventually pass away, whether it is normal or abnormal.

Si Jia's eyes crossed Yi Nian Temple. He forced himself to look at the miserable scene, forced himself to suppress the fear and anxiety in his heart, and forced himself to get used to it quickly.

He told himself that a soldier who has never killed someone will never be able to stand on the battlefield. But all soldiers eventually get used to having reflexes trump thoughts and pull the trigger. It just takes a little time. a little time.

"Let's go." Zou Jiaoren glanced at Si Jia with a slightly worried look in his eyes, but in the end he didn't say anything more.

So does the Mermaid King.
