After dinner, Shado and Glada wandered around the city, half to eat and half to have fun. The nightlife in Sukanvisa was quite rich. On the street corner, a group of elves could often be seen watching minstrel performances.
Occasionally, these onlookers will even put on a show themselves.
"Athos, are we going to watch a spell showdown or a sword showdown?" Glada asked. Xia Duo thought for a while and replied almost subconsciously: "Let's watch the swordsmanship!"
"I knew it would be like this. Come on, or you won't be able to find a good spot in a while." Grada pulled Xia Duo through the streets and alleys, and soon came to a place similar to a platform. At this time, there were already people fighting on it.
There were also elves surrounding him, and some even cast spells to float in mid-air. Like a crazy tiger, Zheng Grada led Xia Duo and rushed left and right to the front row. When some elves accused him, Grada Da instead let out a proud laugh.
"Athos, look! It's the 'Star Sword', it's so powerful!" Sha Duo looked at the opposite platform, and what Grada said
"Star Sword" is a black-haired elf standing on the stage. His skin color is the same as theirs, copper-colored, and this
The sword in the hand of the "Sword of Stars" is shining with the brilliance of stars, maybe
This is where the name "Star Sword" comes from. Grada shouted excitedly, causing the surrounding elves to unconsciously make a gap, and Shado also moved slightly away.
Soon, an elf in the audience jumped on the spot, jumped onto the opposite platform, and waved the sword in his hand without saying a word. Xia Duo noticed that although this was a sword duel, spells were not completely prohibited.
There was an unknown spell condensed on the challenger's sword, and the people around him didn't object, as if it were natural.
and
The "Star Sword" also responded very quickly. With the long sword in its hand and a single finger pointing from a distance, the challenger's spell was immediately disintegrated.
At the same time, a star shines from
The "Star Sword" fell from the top of the head, followed by a series of sword strikes, shrouded in the starlight.
The "Sword of the Stars" looks so good that even Xia Duo felt envious after seeing it. The elves' swordsmanship is exquisite and sensitive. It looks beautiful, but it hides murderous intent. Xia Duo can't quite understand it. However, judging from the reactions of the surrounding elves, especially Grada, the two elves fighting on the stage should be quite powerful. .
For a moment, the challenger suddenly took a few steps back and stopped.
"I'll challenge you next time!" After that, he left the opposite platform. Under the stage, Xia Duo noticed that an elf had sent flowers to the challenger, and the challenger accepted them one by one.
If the loser is like this, then the winner will be even more glorious. The people around him cheered him in unison and gave him a salute.
Grada looked at the popular people on the stage
"Star Sword", jumping and shouting again, very enthusiastic, continue
The "Sword of the Stars" fought several more battles, winning every time. This also pushed the atmosphere in this area to a climax. A group of elves onlookers cheered and shouted. Some elves used magic to summon fine wine and drank with the surrounding elves.
Even Chateau and Grada were given a large glass. This wine was somewhat similar to what Chateau drank at the Tower of Time, but the taste was lighter and could almost be regarded as a kind of juice.
After drinking, Grada took Xia Duo around the city again, and even walked around the white tower and walked along the suspended corridor.
...We played until after midnight before Xia Duo returned
"My" home - a manor next to Grada's home. The two are very similar, but
"My own home" has no guards and lacks vitality. It seems that it has been in decline for a long time and I return to it by instinct.
"My" room. Only then did Xia Duo have time to think about his own situation. Too many times today, he relies on
"Instinct" worked, the most obvious of which was that he could communicate with elves normally even though he didn't know Elvish at all before.
This is really weird! from
An old book was found in "home", and Xia Duo compared the words in the book and began to identify it. "Crona's Cooking Notes"?
Is it Crona from next door? Shado continued to look through it. At first glance, the meaning emerged in his heart. It was a text recording Crona's home life, including her experience with the Athos family.
Of course, it mainly focuses on making delicious food, similar to food blogs with stories on earth. However, when Xia Duo observed carefully, he found that he did not recognize any of these words.
Perhaps it was really the projection spell of the Arcane Federation that allowed him to replace the elf of "Oar Athos" in some form, which allowed him to
Observe and experience this projection world from the perspective of "Athos". Then Xia Duo was here again
Wandering around "home", he felt a sense of familiarity everywhere he went, and sometimes he could even blurt out words like "what is this, what is that".
But inside this layer of inexplicable familiarity, it was Xia Duo's true feelings - strangeness, curiosity, with a hint of excitement and a hint of fear.
Will
All the books "at home" were dug out, more than ten in total. In addition to the "Crona's Cooking Notes", there were also several books recording life.
The remaining half or so are books related to magic and martial arts, such as "Secret Enlightenment", "Swordsmanship Enlightenment", "Phyllis's Offensive Art" and the like.
You can probably tell it by looking at the name. Xia Duo did not read these books immediately. Anyway, he had enough time. If he wanted to, he could even stay here for the rest of his life.
The key is to look at yourself, that is, this elf named "Athos". Sha Duo almost without hesitation unbuttoned all his clothes, and then touched all the way from his ears to the soles of his feet.
Every part has a full sense of familiarity, but if you experience it carefully, you will also have a full sense of unfamiliarity.
"After all, it's not my real body!" Moreover, Xia Duo is also worried that in this interweaving of familiar and unfamiliar feelings, cognitive errors will occur, and he will eventually either suffer from schizophrenia or be completely assimilated.
Either way he couldn't accept it. After examining the body, Xia Duo began to examine the spirit, or essence. He didn't have much experience in this, and could only look at it from the perspective of contact with the magic network.
In the main plane, Shado has access to the second level of the magic network, and as far as he knows from Grada, Athos only knows a few tricks, which is not as good as Grada, and even in the entire
"In class" all belong to the bottom. Generally speaking, the magic talents of swordsingers are not the best, because the best ones show their talents early and become mages.
Athos is 42 years old, but he has only mastered a few tricks, which is enough to illustrate the problem. Although elves are not officially adults until they are 100 years old, in fact the development speed of elves is similar to that of humans. It is just that the immortal society naturally believes that those under 100 years old are not (psychologically) mature enough.
And looking at Grada's appearance, the underage elf may be really immature. A 40-year-old elf can act coquettishly, but if it were a human, the picture would not be too beautiful!
