Chapter 52: An Elf
Chapter 52: An Elf
Some people in this city did look different. Aldric saw slender women with pointed ears.
They looked very striking because their skin was very clear while their hair was bright blonde, like gold in the sunlight.
They gave the impression of being lively and vibrant and intelligent. Everyone who saw them was mesmerized to the point of not blinking.
However, even though there were only a few of them, no one seemed to dare try to disturb them.
Even Aldric knew that they were elves.
In addition to them, he saw black and green figures less than half human height.
They were fat, but seemed to be strong and agile, able to lift large objects.
Those with black skin were seen carrying large hammers while those with green skin seemed to like taunting people.
There were more of them than the Elves.
"Boss, I heard that the Elves around the world are under the protection of the Elf Kingdom. If we disturb them, it’s tantamount to becoming enemies with the entire Elf Kingdom. Because of this, it’s very rare for anyone to be brave enough to disturb the Elves even in the territories where they are few.
As for Orcs and Goblins, most of them worked for powerful humans, so disturbing them was also risky. It is more often them who disturb humans." The Demon Horse spoke, explaining about the races to Aldric.
The latter seemed not to hear as his eyes continued to scan the city, looking at everything he could see.
When he was in front of this city, he had trouble thinking of things he needed to do.
It was too big a place with too many things he could do. It was precisely because of that that she was confused. He had trouble making up his mind.
After a while of thinking, he finally called Jenny.
He would ask her for guidance.
"Aldric, have you arrived yet? What is your current location?" The woman asked when he had just called her, guessing that he was already in Heaven Valley City.
"I’m here," Aldric replied, taking a screenshot of his location and sending it to Jenny.
The woman seemed to take some time to recognize the image he sent.
After that, she replied, "wait there, I’ll be here soon!"
Since she asked him to wait, so Aldric waited.
Of course, he didn’t keep standing.
He went to the edge of the road, sitting at an open-air restaurant where the tables and chairs were placed on the open ground while the kitchen was behind the stand.
This restaurant sold drinks and snacks, a perfect place to relax.
"Boss, aren’t we leaving?" The Dead Fish and the Demon Horse who were no longer wearing masks were puzzled that Aldric didn’t enter the city immediately.
Even they were eager to enter the city, why wouldn’t Aldric.
"Sit down, I’m waiting for someone," Aldric replied without explaining much.
He savored his snack while drinking occasionally.
"Mm..." A few moments later, he suddenly saw a carriage pulled by a white horse with wings.
Because it was pulled by a winged horse, the carriage could fly through the air.
It flew at an altitude of about 50 meters, slowly descending to the street in front of the restaurant.
In White Wind City, he had never seen this kind of carriage.
Although it might not be as fast as a flying ark, it still had an aesthetic that showed status.
All the people who happened to be on the street rushed to the edge, as if worried about blocking the carriage.
They knew that only someone of high status owned a flying horse-drawn carriage.
They were usually Senior Magicians.
Aldric observed the carriage, wondering who was inside.
To his surprise, after it landed, it stopped in front of his desk which was indeed right in front of the street.
The door opened, revealing a very beautiful elf figure in a blue dress that enveloped her entire body without hiding her indescribable curves.
She was sitting with her legs crossed. Her blonde hair was in a neat bun so that her pointed ears were clearly visible, wearing a pair of long silver earrings.
Her dazzling face made everyone in the restaurant open their mouths while their eyes did not blink anymore.
On the other hand, the players showed slightly different reactions including the Demon Horse and the Dead Fish.
"Jenny, she’s Jenny," the two said in amazement.
Their eyes formed an egg-like shape when they saw the female elf.
Aldric who was familiar with her naturally recognized her right away.
Only, he was puzzled because she was an Elf.
How did she become an Elf?
Can players also appear as other races?
From the beginning until now, Jenny’s eyes have only been on Aldric.
The Demon Horse and the Dead Fish finally realized that.
Seeing the position of the carriage, they couldn’t help but wonder if Aldric knew her.
"Come in," Jenny said to him, waving her hand at the carriage.
She, who was originally in the left seat, then shifted to the right seat so that Aldric, who she told to get in, could sit in the left seat immediately after he got in.
Seeing all this, the Demon Horse and the Dead Fish began to pant.
Not only did their boss actually recognize her, she had even asked him to enter her carriage.
If that was the case, then they would be alone in the carriage.
Aldric also didn’t expect Jenny to ask him into her carriage in a public place like this where there were many people watching.
They might be in a game world, but this game world had a hundred percent similarity to the real world.
It’s no different from her asking him to get into her car in front of so many people.
Aldric became a bit awkward.
He wanted to clear his throat but refrained.
After that, he looked at the Dead Fish and the Demon Horse.
"I’m bringing two people, your carriage won’t fit," he said.
The carriage only had two seats although the space was quite large, of course it couldn’t accommodate more people.
Hearing his words, Jenny looked at the two men who spontaneously smoothed their hair and tried to smile as best they could.
