Chapter 156 Elven Village (5)
When she saw her own foot disappear, Cecilia immediately froze on the spot.
With how stiff she was, it was as if she was too scared to even move a single inch. It was like she thought that if she moved, she might lose that part of her body forever.
So she just stood there with her foot stuck in the water mirror.
After a while, there was a voice that said, “What are you doing? Come through the portal already.”
This was the voice of the green haired elf who had been with them a few minutes ago.
Cecilia’s face couldn’t help turning red when she heard this, but she didn’t remain idle anymore. She took a deep breath before raising her other foot and walking through the water mirror.
When she went through, she disappeared without a trace.
But they also heard something coming from the other side, “Eh? What is this place?”
After seeing Cecilia go through, the two knights that had followed her didn’t waste any time as they followed her through the water mirror. The moment that they walked through, there were two more surprised exclamations that rang out.
It was clear that they had seen the same thing as Cecilia.
After a while longer, Cecilia’s voice came from the water mirror, “You can come through now. There’s no danger in this place.”
With that, I didn’t hesitate as I walked up to the water mirror.
In one swift move, I walked through and appeared on the other side.
When I came out, I saw the scenery in front of me.
We were currently in the middle of a forest, but this place wasn’t a normal forest. In the trees that were all around us, there were houses that were made of wood that were built on them.
This was the elf village as I had remembered it.
Elves lived with nature, so they took it literally by building tree houses.
When the others came from behind me, they were all surprised by the scene that they saw.
I on the other hand started looking around the area for the elves that we had met before.
After looking for a bit, I found them standing not far away with Cecilia and the two knights that came first. It was clear that they had been waiting for us to come through the portal.
At the same time though, I could see the trace of annoyance that was in their eyes since they had been made to wait.
Once they saw that we had all come through the water mirror, the green haired elf waved their hand at us and said, “Come, follow me. I’ll take you to the gathering hall. The elders are already waiting for you.”
It was when this green haired elf said this that everyone snapped out of their daze.
I was the first one to follow the green haired elf and once I did, everyone quickly came forward to catch up to me.
They even came in between me and the elves as if they were protecting me from them.
But then all of a sudden, the green haired elf whispered something to the blonde elves beside them. The blonde elves revealed surprised looks, but they still continued walking forward without stopping.
The green elf on the other hand slowed down and started approaching me.
When Cecilia saw this, she immediately made her way to intercept them, but I grabbed her shoulder.
When Cecilia looked back at me, I shook my head and gave her a look again.
When Cecilia saw this, she couldn’t help biting her lip and looking at me with an unwilling look. But in the end, she just gave a sigh and moved out of the way of the green haired elf.
The green haired elf didn’t seem to care about this at all as they made their way to my side. They slowed down enough so that they were walking right beside me.
As we walked along, they suddenly turned to look at me and asked, “Where did you learn all of this? The things that you’ve done, these are the secrets of the elves.”
When I heard this, I couldn’t help revealing a bitter smile.
That was because I had knowledge that people from this world didn’t have. I had explored this world when it was still a game and gotten what I thought was a perfect clear, so I knew many things that people in this world wouldn’t have known.
That was how I had known about the Song of Friendship and the secret path for friends of the elf tribe.
But of course, it wasn’t as if I could tell people this.
If I really did, they would most likely look at me like I was crazy.
At the same time though, I also knew what the green haired elf wanted to ask instead of this question.
There was one thing that the green haired elf wanted to know, which was who I knew.
In short, they wanted to know which elf gave me all of this information. That was because the only way to get this information was from another elf.
They wanted to know which elf I had befriended.
But in reality, I didn’t know a single elf.
Seeing that I didn’t answer at all, the green haired elf finally couldn’t take it anymore. They looked at me and directly asked, “Which elf do you know?”
I couldn’t help being surprised by how direct they were.
I knew that elves were direct and didn’t like beating around the bush, but wasn’t this too much?
Still I looked right at them and calmly said, “Aisha?”
The green haired elf couldn’t help knitting their brows when they heard this and they seemed to fall into deep thought.𝗇𝑂𝒱𝓮𝗅𝐍𝓮xt.𝑐𝔬𝚖
The name Aisha was a common name among the elves, but the fact that this name had been said by this human felt like the elf that they met wouldn’t be normal.
Finally, the green haired elf couldn’t help asking with a strange look, “The Aisha you mentioned…was her last name Briar?”
