I kissed the statue at the beginning and I vomited all over the floor

Chapter 462 Mysterious Friend

In order to facilitate movement, before setting out for Nield, Isa had already changed her maid's attire into close-fitting leather armor that was convenient for combat.

She raised her head with a cold face facing Annie, who was much shorter than her. Her red pupils stared at this unserious halfling, and the threat in her eyes was obvious.

“Ms. Annie, Radiant City is very grateful that you and your flying team have joined this adventure.

But you have to understand that protecting the city lord is my duty."

“You worry too much, Ms. Isa.

I have no intention of snatching Master Xiuman from you."

Annie, a halfling who is actually much older than Isa, would definitely understand the concerns in this little girl's mind.

She did not take the hostility of the city lord's maid seriously. Instead, she smiled and told Isa's little trick.

Isa, who was already shy, started to blush.

"By the way, your Abyss bloodline should be stronger than Percy's...

After all, his eyes only turn into pale golden vertical pupils when he is emotionally excited."

Isa, who was still puffing out her chest and trying to put pressure on this imaginary enemy, had never expected that the other party would take the initiative to talk to her.

She blinked, not knowing how to answer.

Abyssal bloodline...is not a popular thing in the main plane.

Isa even noticed the strange looks from the halflings around her.

Just when she was at a loss, the young city lord's slow voice came from behind her.

“Isha’s father was a warrior who participated in the orc war and was also a shadow assassin that the enemy feared.

Miss Annie, border cities like Huiyao City are not like the capital, where people's past and future are judged by their bloodline."

"Oh? In other words, if the Lord City Lord's wife is carrying the blood of the Abyss, you won't care?"

“Why should you care?

That’s not even something to consider, is it?”

When Isa heard this, her ears turned red.

Just like she had just inserted herself between the two people, she dodged like a frightened angora rabbit and ran to the back of the team.

Yani smiled calmly and whispered to Xiuman.

"Your maid is really shy.

Compared to the time we fought to the death in the City Lord's Mansion, they are totally different people."

Xiuman didn't look back. He looked into the distance at the end of the forest path, where he could see a high white wall through the gaps between the leaves.

“Isa is a good girl, you will find out slowly.

Well, it seems that the Elven Courtyard is quite hospitable, and the person who is going to take us here has arrived."

Following Xiuman's line of sight, Annie looked up.

Just this one glance made the half-ling, who had originally maintained the image of a maid, feel her hair stand on end.

She lowered her body and placed her right hand on the hilt of her rapier.

Behind her, the Gith's reactions were even more exaggerated.

Most of the Gith people who are stranded on the main plane have the fear of the supreme power of the gods engraved in their souls.

Their bodies were trembling slightly, and the silver swords on their backs emitted a faint white light under the stimulation of spiritual energy.

Seeing the bad situation, Isa immediately retreated into shadow form, holding a sharp dagger in her hand.

She quickly used branches and vines to move to Xiuman's side.

However, her action was quickly stopped by Xiuman.

A tall male elf, carrying a huge longbow, appeared not far ahead.

Isa had never seen such a tall elf. She was afraid that even the high elves in the past would not have such an exaggerated height.

"Who is Xiuman Huiyao?"

The thunder-like sound pierced everyone's heart, causing Isa to inevitably feel fear.

This fear from a different dimension has made her guess what kind of existence she is facing.

“It is me, O all-knowing spirit, thank you for knowing my name.

I learned of your plight from several of my half-elf friends."

Solonor, who was called by Corellon to receive the guests, looked at Xiuman in aristocratic dress without any change in his expression.

"I am not omniscient, human.

One of your friends told us that you and the Githyanki behind you are reinforcements from Radiant City."

"friend?"

Xiuman was a little stunned now.

He didn't know that so many things happened after Alvin went to Breath of the Moon Sea.

This time they went to the Elf Courtyard because they were unwilling to let the Kingdom Knights sweep away all the troops of Radiant City.

What's more, the information he got from the old city lord's secret history of the royal family made Xuman have some restless political ambitions.

But he didn't remember having any friends living in the Elf Courtyard.

Looking at the confused face of the human noble, Solonor did not have the patience to explain to him.

The tall elven god waved at the small army, signaling them to follow, and then walked towards the high white wall without looking back.

"Friends? Lord Xiuman, this is a little strange.

If we are treated as spies for the Kingdom, I am afraid what awaits us will be..."

Isa did not leave her shadow form, and her voice surrounded Xiuman's ears like a stereo.

"You're right, Isa."

Xiuman narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Solonor's tall back.

“But this is a rare opportunity for Huiyao City and the entire Northern Territory.

That so-called royal family has ruled the kingdom for too long.

Well, Isha, I need you to go to the druids' place;

Before the battle begins, we need to connect as many forces as possible—"

Before he finished speaking, Xiuman was strongly opposed by Isha.

"Lord Human!"

The maid unconsciously raised her voice.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!

First you sent Percy away, and now you want me to leave the center of the war...

I am not your precious vase in your study, Shuman.

Please allow me to disobey the order of the city lord this time!"

Xiuman grinned in embarrassment, his little maid was really too smart.

His plan was indeed to get Isa out of danger.

But when he saw the pair of determined red eyes in the shadows, Xiuman's grin turned into a bitter smile.

The little girl was so excited that she didn't even use the honorific title.

"Isa, you have to know that I'm not even half sure this time..."

“So what!

I will never leave you no matter what. I am your handmaiden! Your eyes and ears! The blade in the shadows!"

After staring at each other for a long time, and hearing Solonor's impatient urging voice in front of him, Xiuman gave up the idea of ​​persuading him.

"Alright alright."

He turned his gaze back towards the direction of the Elf Courtyard.

"Then let us go together to meet this mysterious friend..."
