Chapter 256 Judging people by their appearance is a bad habit
Su Wen really didn't know how to deny Liticia, so she had to start talking.
"Want to eat something?"
"You, master, you are so cute now."
This made Su Wen's back even colder. If it weren't for the blushing and hot expression when Liticia was saying this, she almost hugged her ears like mosquitoes. He would even think that this girl had been infected with some unclean strange disease by that ghost Shirley when she was at St. Peter's College.
"But I am serious. Mr. Hibert is indeed a good person. Speaking of which, he is also the first person to express kindness to me without reservation after meeting you, Master." Liticia said seriously instead, "I did not intend to pay attention to him at first, but he told me about our hometown, the Eternal Night Forest in the far north of the mainland, as a elves who have been left behind, I really cannot refuse such topics."
Su Wen nodded. The Eternal Night Forest is the saying that the Elf tribe is, and the name "Fear Forest" is called "Humans". After the elves were defeated in the race war, they signed a non-aggression treaty with the United Human Army, and then gave up the fertile land on the continent and moved their tribe to this forest located in the far north of the continent.
The surface of this forest is very strong, and because it is too far from the central area of the mainland, even the sun is difficult to shine, and countless trees are growing. Therefore, even during the day, it seems that the dark night is invisible to reach out to the bottom of the forest. What's more serious is that this forest is home to a large number of native monsters, which have their own territories, and the deeper the monsters become stronger. Many legendary nine-ring ferocious beasts, such as Hydra Hydra, Bemon Behemoth, and Shadow Wolf King, all come from here. Although the legend is exaggerated, it is enough to show that they are afraid of the dangers of the forest. Therefore, unless necessary, even humans rarely set foot here.
To drive the elves to this end, they can also be regarded as vanguards that block the beast tide, and they don’t have to worry about any storm. This is true. For hundreds of years since then, the elves have been surviving. I don’t know if there are 100,000 people in each tribe. Not only do they have to face the threat of monsters and the harsh natural conditions in the forest, they also have to be wary of the invasion of human hunters at any time. It can be said that they are in sorrow, and they don’t have to rest or recuperate. Therefore, most purebred elves now leave their hometowns, willing to be inferior citizens in the human world, and not be in danger of danger every day in the ghostly places like their hometown.
"... Mr. Hibert was born in the Eternal Night Forest and knows it very well. He said that although the environment there is very difficult, everyone is working hard to make life better. High elves, blood elves, deer elves, and even the unpopular night elves united to form the Elf United Nations. When he left the Eternal Night Forest a few years ago and went upstream to the mainland, the new Elf Queen Alicia had just taken office. She is a very outstanding leader. Under her leadership, we absorb advanced human knowledge and cultivate fields in the forest..."
Su Wen could see that Liticia was really very happy. She told the stories she had revealed in the mouth of the high elf, and her face was filled with happiness. So much so that he was embarrassed to tell her that except for the high elf named Alicia who became the newly appointed elf queen and intending to work hard to develop technology, most of the other details were fictional.
It’s not because Su Wen can be sure that the information is false, but because he has already listened to the conversation between the two words without missing a word, and can determine whether the high elf named "Hibert" is telling the truth based on his posture perception. It turns out that most of this information is sweet words made up according to the aspiration of the innocent girl. The days of the elves tribes in the Eternal Night Forest must be much more difficult than the one said.
"So, Liticia, why do you think he is a good person, just because he is an elf who travels from the Eternal Night Forest?"
"No, this is my intuition, intuition! Mr. Hibert's eyes were clear and bright, as if he could see his kind heart through it. He was also the most gentlemanly person I have ever met. If even such a person was not a good person, there would be not many good people in the world."
"You are a typical judgement of people by their appearance."
"I believe more about appearances arise from the heart. Even if Mr. Hibert is not as good as I said, his heart will not be too bad. Anyway, it is unlikely to meet again in the future. What's the problem with me when I praise him? Or are you jealous again? Dear-Lord-Man~."
"Tsk."
Seeing Liticia's smug appearance, Su Wen just wanted to slap her on the butt.
Finally, he suddenly said, "Actually you are hiding it, Liticia."
“Eh?”
"You are not so naughty usually." Su Wen continued, "The things you saw in the underground world just now actually made you very unhappy. Especially when I saw those, well, specimens, I could feel the anger in your heart. You are just diverting your attention now."
“…”
When Liticia heard this, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and she no longer got tired of Su Wen.
She retracted her seat and lowered her head.
After a long time, she said with a little pain: "Why do you have to mention these, Master?"
"Why do you want to hide and escape your hatred, Liticia?"
Su Wen immediately asked back.
But Liticia never answered again.
——Separation line—
"Mr. Wright, you are back, are things going well?"
In the spacious and luxurious hall, a middle-aged man in a tuxedo stroked his curly beard and smiled and asked the high elf in front of him.
Wright slowly took off his white gloves, folded them up and put them in his pocket, and saw that his exposed palm was covered with dense glyphs of elemental text.
This man was the "Mr. Hibert" just now, but now his face is no longer covered with a cute smile and clear eyes, and is replaced by a cold gaze.
"Smooth? What's going on with Brand? I have to do this kind of small thing myself. He is obviously just an ordinary person without any magical aura. At most, he has some self-defense props. Just find a place where no one can kill him. When did Mtasse City lack the corpse in the gutter? It was just a magic motorcycle I had never seen before. The old fool regarded him as a hidden master?"
"Oh, you don't know the temper of the leader. He was cautious and cautious to achieve today. Especially in recent times, he was going to compete for the position of president of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce. Naturally, he is more conservative than usual. He will definitely not agree to you that the rule set by the city lord cannot do things in the city."
"I naturally understand the truth, but I have put down my figure and talk to him, but that boy dared to despise me! Haha, if he didn't have this capital, I would let him know what regret means." Wright's face was a little hideous because of his anger, "I will let him suffer all the torture and beg me to kill him in humiliation."
"Of course, Mr. Wright, we will soon find out the origin of this kid. Once we arrived at Mtasse City, we headed straight to the intelligence market like those novice adventurers, and then dived into the shop that Lord Gus used to cheat the suckers. After being slaughtered hundreds of gold coins, we left like a treasure, and now we headed straight to the most luxurious hotel in the upper city. In my opinion, we may have picked up the treasure this time."
But Wright seemed to have noticed something, and frowned and said, "Mr. Gus? That's the legendary..."
"That's right, that senior who clearly has the power of a great magician but does not belong to any gang, and is focused on selling strange but useless props at high prices in the intelligence market. It is said that his greatest pleasure is to harm those unsavvy adventurers. Our people just went to investigate, and Senior Gus boasted to us enthusiastically that he earned hundreds of gold coins from the generous boy."
"It seems that he is a playboy."
Wright sneered.
"That's right, so Mr. Wright, the most important thing now is to find out his background. Our people will figure out where he entered the ancient Rhine wasteland today, and then follow the clues to find out his origin. In a maximum of two or three days, we can tell whether he can be eaten by us."
"I know, I will also go inquire about the information. His bastard half-elf maid looks easy to solve. But I have a request. After the matter is over, the kid will leave it to me to deal with it."
