The sun was hanging high above, and Liya finally revealed her head from the bulging quilt.
Wearing pink silk pajamas on her body, she felt slightly cool.
After she opened her eyes in a daze, she glanced at the clock on the wall and checked the time.
It's already twelve o'clock noon.
Normally speaking, Liya has already started busy at this time, starting to deal with the work in the Cravenna territory.
But today, she didn't want to get up.
When she thinks about what happened yesterday, Liya's cheeks will be as red as a ripe apple.
She put her head back into the quilt, closed her eyes, and huddled up.
Yes, Liya has remembered everything.
After forgetting about Victor, she spent the whole day running around.
During this time, she kept searching for things about Victor.
Traveling around Braxton, trying to find all clues about Victor, and even looking for Gwen's help.
She quietly revealed a pair of eyes from under the quilt.
The cabinet next to the bed was closed tightly, but the magic lock on it had disappeared.
Suddenly, such a picture flashed through my mind.
Victor sat next to her cabinet, holding her diary filled with 'brother', flipping through it and reading it carefully.
After reading this, I have another sentence to add.
"Hmm, interesting."
Probably even his inseparable crow has read through her diary.
Thinking of this, Liya felt even more ashamed.
My cheeks were hot and my mind was in a mess.
Yes, that diary filled with memories of my childhood.
Although those memories were definitely not very good, Liya still kept these precious memories.
And used a magic lock to keep it secret.
Unfortunately, magic locks can protect against both gentlemen and villains.
But you can't guard against the villain who can use magic.
That's right, especially the smiling face at the end, could only have been drawn by Victor.
It was as if he was deliberately mocking Liya, it was clearly there.
Take a peek at her diary and feel confident.
The more Liya thought about it, the angrier she became, so she simply didn't want to.
"When did he see it?"
For her, it was too shameful for Victor to see the contents of the diary.
After all, the word "brother" is written all over it.
Every time she thought of this, Liya got goosebumps all over her body.
Now, she especially hated herself as a child.
Why was he clinging to Victor's back like he was mad, shouting 'brother', 'brother'?
Even her own diary almost always writes about Victor.
He was obviously so indifferent and treated her so meanly...
But just as what was written in the diary, Liya still remembered the time she was scolded by Victor.
He said he hated tears.
Since then, Liya has learned to be independent and self-reliant.
And the more she grew up, the more she hated Victor.
Until yesterday…
Liya felt that her body under the quilt began to heat up slightly, and her cheeks turned red.
Liya trembled all over when she thought of Victor touching her cheek and wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Every pore in her body seemed to be sweating slightly because of her shame.
Victor, how dare he?
They are brother and sister! Brothers and sisters! !
The situation was fine at the time, but the more she thought about it, the more embarrassed Liya felt.
She pulled up the quilt again, covered her head tightly, and huddled up.
This time, she didn't even think about coming out.
That's why she didn't dare to go out all day today.
She would rather lie in bed, get under the quilt, and stay in the bedroom all day than go out and meet Victor.
She really couldn't think of what attitude she should use to face this brother.
Fortunately, Victor was dealing with the elves' affairs, so he didn't have time to come to her.
Liya needed time to calm down.
Because she would have to face Victor sooner or later.
Tomorrow is Monday.
It is also the day when the Royal Academy of Magic starts school and conducts freshman assessments.
The palace in the royal capital has been built, and Victor will definitely return to the royal capital.
So Liya had a choice before her, whether to follow Victor back to the royal capital.
But no matter what she chooses, she must meet Victor face to face.
"..."
Liya was silent, turned over, stuck her head out of the quilt, and stared at the ceiling blankly.
Boom boom.
Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door.
Liya was a little confused.
Although she didn't get up today, she had already handed over the chores below to the servants. There was basically nothing special to do today.
But soon, the servant's voice came from the door:
"Miss Leah."
"Lord Gwen came to visit."
Liya suddenly sat up from the bed, her eyes widening.
who? Who is coming! ?
…
A prosperous and huge sacred tree stands in the backyard of Cravenna's house, its extremely thick trunk towering into the clouds.
Countless exquisite wooden houses have been built around the sacred tree. They are orderly and neat, looking calm and harmonious under the sunlight.
Hundreds of elves have been almost settled and live here in an orderly manner.
The huge backyard has basically become the home of these elves.
These elves need to adapt to the human world as soon as possible. Leaving the Elf Forest and coming to Cravenna's house is the first step for them.
Of course, although they were curious as to why there was a sacred tree in Victor's backyard, the elves did not recognize that this sacred tree was their former stepmother.
The sacred tree of Yade.
The elves knew that Victor had the means to resurrect the sacred tree, so there was no problem in the eyes of the elves that a sacred tree grew in the backyard of Cravenna's house.
At this time, looking at the tribesmen who had settled down, Kokot was sitting on the clouds and couldn't help laughing loudly:
"Oh my, my work is finally done!"
Viniya on the side glanced at Kokot.
This lazy elf only established a two-way passage between the Elf Forest and Cravenna's house.
And for the Elf Queen, this is as simple as drinking water.
So, she mercilessly exposed Kokot on the spot and said calmly:
"What have you done?"
"Why do I feel like you've contracted the work of hundreds of elves?"
Fortunately, not all elves are as lazy as Kokot.
The elves living in the Elf Forest have always lived like primitive people.
So they are very capable.
In just one day, without the help of Cravenna's workers, he built the house he needed.
Although Victor mentioned that they could even live inside the sacred tree, the elves considered this a disrespectful act.
Fortunately, the Cravenas' backyard is big enough.
Because the word 'backyard' is just talk.
Although it is said to be a backyard, as long as it does not cross the territory boundary, any corner can be said to be Cravenna's backyard.
Kokot stiffened and said a little harshly:
"Then I've also done a very important job!"
"We agreed before that I don't need to do other work!"
Weniya was a little distressed and sighed:
"Okay, thank you for your contribution to the clan."
After saying that, she turned around and looked at Victor.
Victor was standing near them, and the dark crow on his shoulder kept flapping its wings and preening its feathers with its beak.
Venia's eyes were squarely on Victor's, she held the scepter tightly in both hands and bowed to Victor.
Her figure is already one of the best among the elves.
When bowing, the wooden scepter was even clamped unconsciously.
She bowed and said respectfully to Victor.
"Thank you, Lord Victor, for your help to our elves."
The elves need to open up trade between the Elf Forest and the Kalencia Empire, and they need Victor's help.
Therefore, Victor can allow the elves to open the passage to the Elven Forest in Cravenna's backyard, which is of great help to the elves.
The elves only need to contribute their daily natural energy to Victor.
Victor looked at them and said:
"This is not free help."
Weniya nodded:
"I understand, Lord Victor."
Victor shook his head and looked at her:
"I don't think you understand yet."
He put his hands in his pockets, stood there, and said calmly:
"Leon."
After the words fell, the vigorous figure quickly crossed the grass, crossed the house, and landed steadily behind Victor.
She took off the hood on her head, revealing her blond hair and long pointed ears.
Vinia naturally knew Leon, and when she saw Victor summoning him, she didn't quite understand what Victor meant.
The other elves were equally confused and looked at each other.
Then, I heard Victor's voice, faintly:
"First of all, the Cravenas don't raise idlers."
"There is such a clause in the contract you signed."
Victor stretched out a hand, and a contract written in black and white materialized in his hand.
"If the Cravenas are in trouble, you have an obligation to help."
Kokot, who was sitting aside and fishing lazily, was suddenly startled, and his body suddenly shivered.
This picture seems very familiar.
The elves were still a little confused, and Venia also didn't understand what Victor meant.
Although she also signed the contract herself.
"Lord Victor, you also know the situation of our elves..."
Before she could finish speaking, the Yade Sacred Tree trembled slightly.
The elves' eyes couldn't help but be attracted, and then they saw it.
The branches of the sacred tree were slightly tilted, and crystal dew slowly dripped from the top.
The dew hit the ground and began to spread gradually.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a clear pool of water appeared out of thin air on the grass.
The pool was so clear that it could even reflect their figures.
All the elves present were a little confused, and even Kokot didn't know what Victor was doing.
At this time, ripples appeared in the center of the pool, and a strange mirror slowly rose from it.
"That's what I'm going to say next."
Victor put his hands in his pockets and said calmly:
"Starting from today, the elves living in Cravenna's house will undergo special training every day."
"Until you can freely control and use your natural energy."
When the elves heard Victor's words and looked at the mirror, they shuddered all over.
"certainly."
"There will be someone to supervise you."
After the words fell, Leon stepped forward, raised his head, and looked at the elves without any friendship.
An indifferent voice then sounded:
"I will do my best."
