After Lin Li and Diana sat for a while, High Priest Nat quickly prepared the meal and called Lin Li and Diana to the dining room.
"Sit down quickly." Nat said to Lin Li and Diana who walked into the room with a very happy smile on his face.
Lin Li and Diana also walked into the room and sat down at the table. Lin Li was slightly surprised when he looked at the sumptuous meal on the table. He thought these elves only ate fruits, but he didn't expect that they would also eat such ordinary meals.
.
"Come and try my cooking. It's been years since I've cooked." Nat said to Diana with a smile, without looking at Lin Li.
"Grandpa Nat, I no longer need to eat in my current state. Let Lin Li do it." Diana's body was still glowing with a faint white light at this time. At this time, she appeared outside Lin Li's body in this spirit body.
Unable to eat, her energy also relies on absorbing the energy from Lin Li's body. As long as Lin Li doesn't have an accident, he will always have a source of energy.
"Ah, yes...how could I have forgotten this..." Nat said in a hoarse voice, and then turned to look at Lin Li, "Lin Li, right? Although I don't know why Her Royal Highness the Princess would
I have fallen in love with you as a human race, but now I can only accept it, please try this food quickly."
Lin Li looked at the way the high priest looked at him and frowned slightly. The old man's tone of voice had been directed at him ever since he saw him, which made him feel very uncomfortable, but it was also for Diana's sake.
On the table, he didn't say anything more, he just nodded and started to move the bowls and chopsticks to eat. Not to mention that the food tasted pretty good. Lin Li nodded automatically after taking it into his mouth.
.
"Hmph, for a human to be able to eat the noble ingredients of our elves, this guy like you is really taking advantage of it." Nat looked at Lin Li's face, which looked like he had never seen the world, and couldn't help but mocked.
"Click"
Lin Li also put down his bowl and chopsticks when he heard the sound. He had never argued with the old man because of Diana's favor, but why was this old man so ignorant that he went too far? Originally, he thought that the high priest was just
He was so mean to him out of concern for Diana. Now it seemed that the old man was completely discriminating against Lin Li's race, which made Lin Li very uncomfortable.
Diana on the side had obviously noticed the change in Lin Li's expression at this time, and put her somewhat cold hand on the back of Lin Li's hand. A hint of coolness came from the back of Lin Li's hand, and the expression on Lin Li's face also became soothing.
A lot.
"High Priest, I said that Lin Li got everything by himself. There is no need for you to slander him again and again." Diana spoke softly to the high priest, this time just calling him "Grand Priest".
The priest did not call him Grandpa Nat, because at this time Diana also became very uncomfortable because of Nat's words.
"I understand, Your Highness, the old slave has overstepped his bounds." Nat stood up directly upon hearing the sound, lowered his head to Diana and said sincerely.
Diana did not speak, but turned to look at Lin Li, who smiled at her and shook his head.
"Hurry and sit down, Grandpa Nat." Diana saw that Lin Li didn't care anymore and said to Nat. Nat sat down again when he heard the sound. Although he still looked at Lin Li with very disdain,
But he didn't say anything more.
"Grandpa Nat, where are my father and queen now? Why are they not in the castle?" Diana continued to ask when Nat sat down.
"Your father has been searching for your whereabouts for these years. Not long ago, he suddenly contracted a strange disease. News came from the clan that a strange doctor appeared on the northern border of the elves, who could cure your father.
Because of the king's illness, your mother went with your father." Nat answered Diana softly.
After Lin Li heard this, he just raised his head and glanced meaningfully at the high priest, then lowered his head and started eating.
"My father is sick? As the king of elves, what else could he be sick about?" Diana asked Nat in confusion.
"Your father is getting older, and the hidden wounds left by the war when he was young are slowly showing up. His health has been getting worse day by day... By the way, did you come from the territory of the human race? I haven't met him yet.
Soldiers from our elves?"
"Well, we didn't meet any soldiers. Because we were in a hurry to get back, we were in a hurry and didn't pay attention to any soldiers." Diana answered Nat, but she didn't tell the truth.
"That's it..." Nat murmured softly, but the eyes under his cloak became a little blurry, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"By the way, Grandpa Nat, on our way here, we saw how a large number of bloodthirsty vines are overflowing in the elves' territory. What's going on?"
"Those bloodthirsty vines have spread for unknown reasons since your father fell ill and sought medical treatment. However, the spread is so rapid that there is no way to remove them all..." Nat said thoughtfully.
, and at this time Lin Li was completely full and put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands.
"Okay, it's getting late. You should go and have a rest. You can stay in your old room today." Seeing that Lin Li had finally finished eating, Nat quickly stood up and faced Diana.
said.
Diana obviously didn't finish the question and wanted to continue asking the high priest about her uncle King Arran, but Nat had already left the restaurant without looking back.
Diana had no choice but to give up first and led Lin Li towards her previous room.
Going up the steps to the second floor, the first room was Diana's childhood room. At Diana's signal, Lin Li opened the door of the room. At this time, the room had been sorted out by the high priest, and he came into view.
The entire room is decorated in pink, and it definitely looks like a girl's room.
"I really didn't expect that our always cold elf princess actually has a girl's heart." Lin Li looked around at the decorations in the room and said to Diana with a smile.
"There's so much nonsense!" When Diana heard what Lin Li was teasing her about, her fair face suddenly turned red, and she wished she could kick Lin Li out right now.
"Haha." Lin Li smiled and turned around to close the door to the room. When he closed the door, the energy from his hand overflowed, forming a barrier that enveloped the entire room.
After they were done together, Lin Li turned around, walked to the sofa in the room, sat down, and asked Diana: "I have already met the high priest, how do you feel?"
"Grandpa Nat is the same but different from before. It gives me a very strange feeling."
"He's imitating your appearance before you left, right?"
"Yes, that's it. I feel that the care he showed was very deliberate, which is a bit different from Grandpa Nat back then." Diana immediately realized after hearing Lin Li's words. Grandpa Nat in the past would not ridicule other races.
People don't have that kind of violence in their eyes.
"And he is lying to us. His father and mother are definitely not sick." Diana continued in a low voice, but he couldn't understand why Grandpa Nat was lying to them. Could it be that he had really betrayed his father?
Yet.
"Well, let's wait and see what happens. I believe everything will be answered tonight." Lin Li stood up, yawned, and stretched.
Diana nodded and returned directly to Lin Li's body.
Lin Li sat on the pink bed in the room. Unexpectedly, the bed that no one had slept on for a hundred years still had a faint fragrance. This fragrance was exactly the same as the fragrance on Diana. Lin Li waved at the door.
With a wave of his hand, he untied the boundaries of the room, then lay down with satisfaction, and fell asleep quickly.
…
Late at night, the entire castle fell into an eerie silence.
At this time, Nat was sitting in his room, seemingly waiting for something.
"Thump!"
After a while, a dark eagle-shaped monster landed on his window, holding a golden scroll in its mouth.
Nat watched as the scroll he passed was picked up intact, which meant that the owl had not found Klea. Diana appeared in the castle, which meant that Klea's mission had failed... At this time
Even if Klea is still alive, she will still be punished by death...
Seeing that Klea was not found also confirmed Nat's suspicion that maybe Diana already knew everything...
"Your Highness Princess, you really shouldn't come back..."
Nat murmured softly, then stood up, the black cloak completely covering his face again.
"Knock, knock, knock"
After Nat walked out of the room, he walked step by step along the corridor of the castle, slowly walked up the steps of the castle, and finally stopped in front of Diana's room.
"Click"
He gently pushed open the door to Diana's room, and the only sound that could be heard in the room was Lin Li's panting breathing.
Nat slowly walked to Lin Li's bedside, and his eyes turned very cold as he stared at Lin Li, who was sleeping soundly on the bed. He still didn't know why Diana would put her life in contact with this ordinary human race. Now
As long as he kills the human race in front of him, the elf princess will also disappear from this world.
"Our princess always makes wrong choices..."
Just listening to Nat's gentle sigh, a sharp dagger suddenly appeared in his hand, and a ray of cold light reflected on Nat's face. At this time, Nat's expression became very ferocious.
"brush!"
The dagger didn't stop at all and stabbed directly towards Lin Li's eyebrow...
