Chapter 37: Don’t Run After School!

Time slowly passed.
William and his party safely arrived at their destination safely.
The differently sized parts of the Blue Moon lake slowly combined to form a large lake. As they approached the Blue Moon town, their vision broadened.
As dozens of thousands of Elves resided in the town, its size was definitely several times larger than the current Border Town.
However, apart from the main city, the Dark Night City, other congregation of the Blackleaf Elves had a border because they liked to stay in trees and liked a completely free vision. Elfin wood elemental mages would often have knowledge of rare skills and inheritance.
They were able to plant magical seeds in the ground and use magic to germinate the seeds. Following the growth, they could modify the trees into different types of treehouses.
Therefore, this extremely pretty and shocking Elfin city slowly appeared in everyone’s eyes.
All they saw were...
Tall trees linked to each other, while every treehouse looked different and exquisite. All of them were built more than ten meters above the ground. Various pots of colorful flowers were placed on the balconies, blooming extremely beautifully.
As for the linked branches, they were like paths linking the treehouses together. Elves agilely walked along the tree branches. Even if they started to run, they wouldn’t fall.
This was like the innate ability of monkeys knowing how to climb trees.
Under the branches, there were many veins curled around them. These veins were turned into swings, ladders, and hammocks from the requests of magic.
The Elves lived nearer the south, while the Blue Moon lake was at the north. Every morning, when they opened the windows, they would be able to see the calm and sparkling Blue Moon lake, properly lifting their mood.
The arrival of William and his party attracted the gazes of several Elves. Some Elfin children that were playing by the lake, glanced at the leader, William, in curiosity. They said without any regard, “Uncle, why aren’t you dirty?”
“...”
William turned around and glanced at his men that looked slightly pitiful. He immediately used a comforting gaze.
With that, he got off the horse and walked in front of a little girl, patting her head. “Because you’re shorter than me, so you wouldn’t know.”
“...”
The Elfin girl was confused now. She couldn’t really understand what this sentence meant. She couldn’t remember what this Uncle’s reply had got to do with her problem.
However, by the time she regained her senses, William had already left with his men.
At the thought of the fish again, she continued to play and caught them with her friends in the Blue Moon lake...
Facing the armor-clad Elves that had arrived, the Blue Moon Town Elves weren’t too happy.
Even if Elves suddenly met friends that they hadn’t seen in decades, they wouldn’t hug each other loudly and in exclamation.
Of course, unless their relations were extremely good, they would only nod and drink some fruit alcohol, discussing any interesting things they had achieved during their separation.
As they lived long lives, they were used to enjoying life slowly.
They liked to appreciate art, enjoy the beauty of nature and enjoy life properly, instead of going to kill others.
This also caused the older Elves to have more experience in certain aspects.
A real Elfin blacksmith would be able to become a Grandmaster or Legendary as long as they could live up to a thousand years and he really liked this hobby. It didn’t matter how low his talent was.
After all, someone once said that if a pig lived for ten thousand years, it would be able to become a God too.
Even if it wasn’t a God, a pig that had lived for ten thousand years would be a legend itself.
Once, players had chosen the ten biggest unsolved mysteries in Gods.
How many Legendary professions did the Elves have?
No one knew the exact number but there were a lot.
It was no doubt that older Elfin warriors were stronger. Even if their battle experience, skills and battle energy or magic ability never changed, and they couldn’t increase their level anymore, their personal attributes would continue to grow with time.
Like a very strong aged giant dragon, no one liked to offend an Elf that was over a thousand years old.
These undying Elves were more intelligent than human geniuses. Besides, their race name already included intelligence 1 .
They had experienced too many wars and challenges in life. When they really wanted to do something, they would definitely make their opponent lose hope.
This was also one reason the Elves didn’t want to conquer the continent, their power never decreased and they were still one of the most important races on the continent.
–
After his party arrived at the center of Elfin town and had settled their horses, Lautner led William to find the Blue Moon Town’s executor.
The other warriors, because of how terrible they looked, were invited into the houses of the warm and friendly Elves.
After all, Elves who didn’t live in human society rarely took importance to things like wealth, so it was very normal to receive their people warmly.
Of course, the Elves were rich, so they didn’t really care about such things...
Also, the Elves all liked to depend on themselves. As long as they were in the forest, food wasn’t really a problem and they would have more and more treasures...
William and Lautner arrived at the center of the Blue Moon town. They looked up at the same time, glancing at the giant thing that was at least three hundred meters tall.
This was a moon tree. Its roots were thick and strong, its length at least ten meters long. Just the number of treehouses on this tree was no less than a hundred.
What was most shocking was that...
Every night...
The entire Moon tree would glow faintly...
It was very obvious.
This was the place were the Moonlight Elves lived. The tallest and prettiest treehouse at the top of the tree was probably the house of the Moonlight Elfin little princess.
“Tsk, indeed, it’s the treatment of a Princess...” William suddenly felt a little bitter, though it wasn’t for himself, but for the old William.
“She is the Moonlight Elfin youngest princess after all. You have to know that her youngest older sibling was at least 800 years older than her.
“Now that the Moonlight Elfin King is old and is almost returning to the arms of the world tree, wouldn’t he be happy to have a daughter?” Lautner pouted.
He seemed to want William to understand the difference between them. After all, this was the daughter of an Elfin king...
William nodded slowly. He wasn’t that unhappy...
He merely looked up and walked into the tree hole next to its root. As the residence of an Elfin Princess, did they really want the little princess to wear a dress and climb a tree, letting a bunch of people admire the view under the Princess’ skirt?
Of course, they had to climb a ladder!
After all, this tree was so thick...
The two of them weren’t stopped by anyone as they walked into the tree.
However, it was because they were both Elves...
No one could even tell that William was a half-Elfin...
This was the main point.
If other races came here, they would be eyed crazily.
Of course, after the two of them climbed up the tree, a handsome male Moonlight Elf stopped them with a smile.
Moonlight Elves had silver hair and their eyes also shined with a slight silvery glow. He said, “Hello, I’m called Arthur. I’m the executor of Blue Moon Town. May I ask who you are?
“What would you like to do or need help with?”
Seeing that it was just the right person, William hesitated slightly before he said straightforwardly, “I am William Blackleaf. I have a few hundred kilograms of secret iron I would like to sell!”
“A few hundred kilograms of secret iron?” Arthur froze. As her Majesty’s knight and her executor, he never thought that secret iron was sold in hundreds of kilograms today.
With that, he seemed to have thought of something.
He immediately widened his eyes and glanced at William...
William shrugged his shoulders blankly.
Arthur, who was originally smiling, slowly changed his expression and pointed at William resolutely. “Secret iron? Wait a minute, I’ll go call someone for you. Don’t run away...”
Lautner and William watched as Arthur hurriedly ran away.
They glanced at each other.
“Did he agree to my request? But why did he ask me to not run?” William scratched his head, his throat dry as he suddenly felt as if he was in primary school and someone had asked him not to run away after school.
Lautner patted his shoulder. Don’t worry, asking you to not run away after school was at most a beating.
