…
Alex received the [Heart of Natures] from the hands of the mermen.
Without even bothering to look at it, Alex handed it over to Kris.
"Here's the [Heart of Nature] that you need. Put it inside your inventory."
"Thanks, Alex!"
Kris cheerfully thanked Alex and took the [Heart of Nature] from his hands.
Using her appraisal, Kris confirmed that it was the right item and nodded in satisfaction.
"It's really the [Heart of Nature]! We finally got everything, Alex!"
Kris' eyes started shining and started dancing around.
Seeing her acting like a kid, Alex chuckled, "Haha, stop it. Let's get out of this secret realm and complete your quest then."
"Yes!"
Alex and Kris thanked the two guard mermen again before turning around and leaving.
While swimming away, Alex can't help but looked back at the underwater city.
"I will come back here and explore Atlantis some other day." He muttered.
Then, the two started swimming at full speed, heading in the direction of where the exit to the Secret Realm is.
This time, it only took them less than half an hour to arrive at their destination.
As they get near the exit, Kris can't help but express her excitement.
"Haa~ I can't believe it, I'm really going to finally complete my class change quest!"
"That means, I will get stronger again and even have a class that is exclusively mine!"
"I can't wait to get it already!"
Alex smiled while watching her talk the whole time.
Soon, they arrived at the exit and immediately crossed over it.
Their visions turned black for a moment and the next second, they appeared back at the beach in Alter Dimension.
"Phew~ we're back!" Alex said.
"Yes!" Kris cheered.
Then she said, "By the way Alex, about the loots that we got while we're inside-"
Just as she's talking, Alex interrupted her and said, "Aish, forget that. Let's talk about it later."
"For now, let's focus on your quest."
Kris stared at Alex for a while before nodding her head.
"Oum!"
"Follow me, we're going to the home of the elves!"
Saying that, Kris started moving with haste.
Seeing her being in such a hurry, Alex sighed and followed.
"Wait for me!"
…
With Kris leading the way, the two soon arrived at a forest 10 kilometers away from the beach.
Even though they traveled such a great distance, it only took them more or less 30 minutes to get to the forest thanks to their high stats.
When nearing the forest, Kris slowed down her movement and told Alex to do the same.
Although he doesn't know why, Alex still listened to her and matched her speed.
Looking around, Alex noticed that the trees and other plants here look astonishingly bright and full of vitality in this forest.
Compared to Black Forest at Kupido Town that gives off a dark feeling that almost seems depressive, this one actually feels warm and comfortable.
It's like you've become a child again when life still feels so light.
Curiously, Alex asked Kris, "Hey Kris, can you tell me where we are right now? This place feels so relaxing."
Hearing his words, Kris smiled, "This forest is called the Elven Forest."
"As for why it's called that, you can probably already guess. This forest is the home of the elves around this part."
"Ooh~ So that's the case." Alex nodded in understanding.
With a soft smile, Kris added, "Because the elves are a race that is close to nature, just by being around places like this, they nourish the plants just like these trees."
Alex listened to Kris intently and learned a few things.
At this time, while the two were talking leisurely, a figure suddenly appeared up in a tree ahead of them.
"Kris!"
The figure called out Kris' name which attracted the attention of the two.
Turning their eyes in that direction, they saw a woman with a petite figure and pointy ears, wearing a green top and skirt that looked like leaves.
On her back, she's carrying a big bow that is even bigger than her own figure.
When Kris saw that woman, her eyes lit up and in a loud voice, she called,
"Seri!"
Kris ran towards Seri and hugged her.
"I'm back, Seri!"
Seri hugged her back and the two of them remained silent for a while.
They let go after a few seconds and started chatting.
"What took you so long to come back, Kris?"
Scratching her head, Kris said, "Well, the quest that I received from the world tree was too hard for me to complete, that's why it took a while before I got back."
Then she remembered Alex and introduced him, "Oh, by the way, this is my friend here who helped me complete the quest today, Alex."
"Alex, this right here is my elf friend, Seri."
With a gentle smile, Alex offered his hand for a handshake and said, "Hello, Seri."
Seri stared at his hand with a bit of hesitation for a while before taking it and shaking it.
"Hello, Alex."
After that, Kris and Seri talked about a few things before they decided to continue moving.
And so, the three of them headed towards the elves' home at an unhurried pace.
Since Alex doesn't really know Seri, he mostly stayed silent during the journey.
But from time to time, Kris didn't forget to include him in their talk with Seri.
Kris truly has the capability of a great socializer.
'I guess that's just what you should expect from someone who grew up in a big family.' Alex silently thought.
After walking for a few minutes, a few houses built up in big trees soon came into view.
"Woah…"
Hanging bridges that connect each tree with another.
Stunningly beautiful men and women walking around all over the place.
It was really an unbelievable sight!
