The timer chimed, "owl" time.
With a flick of the brush, almost all the magic lights outside the glass window dimmed.
A somewhat tired Gregor packed up the brushes and paints at hand, looked up at me, and coughed unnaturally, "...Miss Messiah, let's go out now, okay?"
"Uh-huh." I replied by flying around in the air, but my eyes couldn't help but flicker to the mirror at the corner of the wooden table.
*
Oh, to be honest, the reflection in the mirror is... a little weird.
Because the glowing elf in the mirror has a face, a human face.
I used my actions to "ask" Glico to draw this face for me.
Thin strokes of bright red paint accurately outline my eyebrows, my eyes, my nose, and my mouth.
But because my body was so dim, those organs seemed to be floating in mid-air, and they kept winking as I moved!
Just like now, I gave Gligo a scary smile with his eyes raised and his mouth almost reaching to his ears.
If Sally and Ilusha saw this, they would definitely faint from fear. Before fainting, they would scream, "Ghost! Holy light, save me!"
Ah!

Squeak, squeak, squeak ---
Gregor struggled to rock his wheelchair and carefully circled down the ramp that allowed two people to walk side by side on the branch of the World Tree, while I hid in his collar.
Through the slightly thin muscles in his chest, I could clearly hear his heartbeat.
Bang bang bang--
His heart was beating so fast.
Of course, his panic was not without reason.
The moment he walked out, I felt several eyes on him.
As his wheelchair went down, I heard the unhurried sound of iron boots coming up the road.
clatter---
The crisp footsteps stopped in front.
In an instant, I felt that Glico's heart was about to beat out of his chest.
The wheelchair suddenly stopped.
Relying on the dim yellow light from the mushroom pavilion not far away, I could vaguely see that the person blocking the road was a tall night elf lady.
Since the light was coming from behind her, I couldn't see her face clearly, but I could see the outline of the full moon sword she was carrying.
Oh, that glaive is so big, it doesn’t look easy to mess with!
"Beautiful little guy, in such a dark night, are you going to do something good?" She put one hand on her hips, her voice was slightly hoarse, and her tone was half-smiling. She was clearly that Scarlett.
"Uh, no, it's not like that..." Gregor waved his hand nervously, "Ms. Scarlett, during the day, you once told me that there is a holy land here filled with pure moonlight." He said as he opened the door He lifted the oil paint box on his knees, revealing the crystal bottle that bloomed with a faint blue light. "You see, it contains the Tears of the Moon God. It is a precious pigment that needs to be dried in the clear moonlight, otherwise, it will It will be damaged..."
"Tears of the Moon God?" Scarlett looked at the crystal bottle, looked at the boy up and down, suddenly smiled, put down her right hand covered with scale gloves, and walked a few steps behind Grigoro, "Then, I will I will reluctantly take you there."
"Thank you very much, ma'am, but I can..."
"Ha! Slow little guy, can't you really hear that I just want to be alone with you for a while?"
*
The holy land filled with pure moonlight should be to the southwest of Trilan Hill Village. Anyway, when Scarlett pushed Gligo's wheelchair away from the World Tree, she ran away from the half chimney of the blacksmith shop at the other end of the street.
Tyrande's sentinels seemed to be keen on teasing young girls and boys. Along the way, Scarlett made Gregor's heart beat several times.
"...Ever since the little guy Allen came of age, Zyra has not allowed us to play with him." Scarlett complained in a slightly hoarse voice, "It's great that Elune has sent you here again. ," she put her lips to Grigo's ear, blowing the scent gently, "Just stay, beautiful little guy, I guarantee that you will live a happy life here. The life here is so comfortable and there is so much food. Delicious, and very safe, you don’t have to worry about breaking your legs... Oh, the girls here are also very beautiful, aren’t they? Do you like smart and cunning girls like Shonda, or honest girls like Fringilla? Cute?"
Gregor coughed unnaturally again and moved his butt forward, "Uh, no..."
"Could it be an exaggerated little doe like Dilaniya..." As she spoke, she made an exaggerated arc on her chest with her right hand, "Huh?"
Bang bang bang--
Gregor's heart beat faster again.
"no no."
"You don't covet Detalia..."
"Oh! I just respect Mrs. Yinlin very much!" Gregor shouted righteously.
"Then you must be thinking of me in Xiao, right?"
Gregor stroked his forehead helplessly.
Scarlett laughed maliciously, and her slightly hoarse voice penetrated the sound of dripping water in the dark night and echoed in the sky above Cui Lanxier.
"Oh, it's really annoying!" She pushed the wheelchair around the corner and cast her eyes with milky white light into the dark depths of the night. "You have to go to the big beast's den and pick up my wife who is there." Wake up your husband who has been sleeping for two hundred years in the Emerald Dream, and then defeat him. In that case, I will marry you."
"Ms. Scarlett..." Gregor sighed, "I mean, we should be loyal to our lovers, whether she appears or not, right?"
"Well...it's true, but the night elves have a long life...it's not impossible to end one period and start another."
"I'm sorry...I don't want to..."
"Um?"
"I mean, Trilan Hill is a beautiful place, but I heard that yesterday's operation to kill the little lemures didn't go well. Many of them escaped. Maybe it's not that safe here..."
"Watch your words, little one!" Scarlett's voice became unhappy, "Trylan Hill is the safest place in the entire Azeroth, even the Nightmare King Xavius has to grovel at her feet! What are little lemures? They will never be able to break into your room!"
"Uh... I'm sorry..."

While talking, Scarlett had already pushed Glico's wheelchair to a building on the edge of the village.
Pushing open the ajar wooden door, an extremely cold wind blew in my face. For a moment, I even heard vague singing in the wind!
oh!
Moving my eyes forward, I realized that the other end of the door was not a three-story building, but a hall with a high dome.
In the middle of the hall, there is a platform made of white stones, knee-high, with a beautiful stone sculpture of Elune standing on it!
The flying skirt of the Moon Goddess, the pendant on her forehead, and the inverted bottle engraved with feather patterns in her raised hands are all carved lifelike.
The reason why I can see this clearly is because there is a bright line of wild rice's sacred moonlight leaking from the bottle mouth!
The moonlight fell on the ground like a waterfall, creating ripples in circles and spreading to every inch of floor tiles and walls in the hall!
Obviously, after seeing these things, Gregor was as stunned as I was.
Who would have thought that in this eternal land of dawn, there would be such a place as good as daylight? !
The boy's stupid look made Scarlett chuckle, "Little guy, you want to put the oil paint there, right?" She pushed the squeaking wheelchair to the place where the moonlight was most dazzling, and followed the With the crisp sound of iron boots, her heels made small ripples one after another in the ripples of the moonlight, "Just put it on this stand! Be careful, don't drop things into the cracks in the rocks. There are empty spaces inside." of."

Mrs. Yinlin must have told Scarlett something, otherwise, why would the sentinel's glowing eyes be staring at Gligo all the time?
At this moment, she was standing next to this beautiful boy, holding the back of the wheelchair with one hand, tilting her head and watching his every move, moment by moment.
Under such gaze, I didn't dare to climb out of Glico's open collar.
After thinking about it, I crawled along the stem of the boy's light linen shirt, into his sleeves, and slipped out of his sleeves.
I hid behind Grigo's hand, then walked around the crystal bottle that exuded blue light, and crawled all the way to the dark stone crevice in front of me.
The moonlight was so bright here that I was sure that even if the sentinel had the eyes of a falcon, she would not notice me.
"Oh! I know!" Just as I tiptoed into the crevice of the stone, Scarlett broke the temporary silence as if she remembered something, scaring me into the crevice of the stone.
"Little guy, are you engaged like the patron of the Holy Light?" Scarlett continued.
Those words choked Greco's hands, so much so that the crystal bottle made a crisp sound on the pile of rocks.
Through the thin stone crack, I saw Gregor looking straight at me, and quickly lowered his long eyelashes under my glare.
"Huh? Little one?"
After a long while, Gregor reluctantly raised the corners of his honey-colored lips, "...I...had an engagement before."
Why does that sentence make people so... guilty... no, irritated! It's anger!
Yes, I am an adult, but I actually found out not long ago that I had been sold to Ajia Mander!
This is absolutely ridiculous!
This is so abominable!
"Ever?!" Scarlett, who was holding the back of the wheelchair, widened her eyes in surprise, but then she seemed to understand something and showed a stunned expression, and patted Gree with her scale-glove-covered palm. Gao slightly showed his thin shoulders, "Little guy! You will get better soon! That girl will regret it!"
The boy was stunned for a moment by the night elf's encouragement, and then he smiled, his eyes turning into crescent moons, "I'm waiting for her to regret it."
Pooh!
I spat in disdain and silently, and turned around.
I'm going to find a dark, flat place to take a rest, and then start tonight's punishment plan...
But at that moment, when I saw clearly what was behind me, I jumped up in shock and hit my head on the rock above!
