Chapter 2836 Emilia and the Forest Elves

"Miss Danister, don't leave in a hurry. I want to take Emilia to the forest elves later to transfer the umbilical cord qualification to Emilia. Luvia will also go with us. Will you go with us?"

Shad made an invitation. The red-haired girl hesitated for a moment and looked in the direction of the city:

"Okay, Flora often goes out recently. I finally go out once, so I'm not in a hurry to go back."

"Can I go with you?"

Ajelina, who was wearing a cat, asked on the side. Although she was wearing a cat, her presence was still very weak at this time.

Dannister looked at her appearance suspiciously, and Shad explained the matter of the relic. The knowledgeable librarian also knew about the [Trembling Contract], but was very curious about how the little princess of Delarion could encounter such a dangerous thing. However, she quite agreed with Ajelina's willingness to challenge herself, and the little praise made the little princess very happy.

Shade also agreed to let Ajelina follow. After all, if she just stayed on the boat, it would be difficult for Ajelina to make any changes in the five-day time limit.

After more than two months, little Liana's body shape has not changed at all. Shade found that the little unicorn seemed to have not grown up since he first saw it in the Randall River Valley at the beginning of this year. Then he realized that the growth cycle of unicorns is also very long. It has only been half a year, and there will not be much change.

The white little beast was waiting for everyone in the forest. Of course, it still knew Shade. When it saw him coming, it was very happy to come over, and then it heard the same familiar cat cry.

And Ajelina found that the little unicorn didn't seem to like her very much. After meeting this time, it didn't let her get close. As the group moved deeper into the forest, she told Emilia about this sadly, and the elf blushed, looking up and down at her friend:

"Ajelina, you are not with Shade."

"Oh, what are you thinking? Of course I am still a pure girl."

Although the little unicorn would rather get close to the "impure" Luvia than Ajelina for some reason, at least it looked very happy.

Emilia was originally a little nervous about going with Miss Danister, but seeing that she didn't seem to be intimidating at the age of 18, she gradually relaxed and walked side by side with little Lianna excitedly, and from time to time she discussed the autumn scenery in the forest with Ajelina who was walking behind them.

Soon the group entered the forest area where they couldn't get out. In order to prevent everyone from getting separated here, Shade also asked everyone to get closer. When they successfully arrived near the elf girl's tree house, Emilia screamed and walked forward quickly:

"Chocobo! And it's a young chocobo!"

The little yellow chocobo was standing next to the bushes, with its butt and tail facing the direction of the group, and buried its head, not knowing whether it was looking for pine cones under the dead leaves or looking for insects to eat. Hearing the footsteps, it pulled its head out and looked back at Emilia, and then continued to busy itself with its own things without any vigilance.

When Emilia approached, whoosh, two adult chocobo heads emerged from the bushes, one with yellow feathers and the other with blue feathers.

They looked at the approacher vigilantly, and when they found that it was the young elf girl, they each called out in an incomprehensible way and then retreated into the bushes.

Obviously, they knew their feeder, and they still recognized her even if she was three years younger.

"Little Chocobo~Shad, when you said there was a Chocobo here, I was a little skeptical."

Emilia said happily, but she didn't really touch the little Chocobo. She just stood aside and observed it. When Shad, Miss Danister and Luvia came, she rejoined the team.

When the pure white little beast walked to the little Chocobo, it stretched its head to push it, making it somersault and fall to the ground, and then pushed it up again, and then happily followed the team.

And Ajelina, who suspected that her charm had greatly decreased recently, also approached the little Chocobo, and was relieved when she found that it did not dodge.

But at this time, the heads of two adult Chocobos, one yellow and one blue, emerged from the bushes again, probably because they heard the whimpering sound of the cub when it was knocked over. They didn't want to attack Ajelina, but just wanted to "warn" her not to get closer, but immediately the two Chocobos saw the cat with a bad face on the human's head, so they shrank back again.

The elf girl in the forest did not go out. She seemed to have known that someone would come to visit this morning, and even prepared tea to entertain everyone.

When the group arrived under the big tree, the elf girl who had been waiting for them jumped down immediately:

"Good morning, Shade, good morning, Luvia, Miss Danister."

She greeted the "familiar" people, but did not greet the "strange" Ajelina and Emilia. However, the little princess looked at the tall elf suspiciously, and the more she looked, the more familiar she felt.

Then she had a flash of inspiration. Even though she had not yet obtained the so-called "amazing wisdom", Ajelina still recognized who it was. She looked at the elf's figure carefully in surprise, and showed an expression of betrayal.

As for the elves next to the unicorn, Shade and Luvia were prepared for her to notice the truth, so they both observed her performance with their peripheral vision. Unexpectedly, Amelia did not look at the other person, but looked at the other person's face and figure with envy. It seemed that she had a new admirer.

In other words, she didn't realize who it was.

So, after a long period of doubt, Shade finally knew who Emilia was trying to deceive by pretending that she could not hide anything from anyone——

Emilia was trying to deceive Emilia.

When Shade discovered this, he immediately had to hold back his smile, and it was obvious that Luvia and Miss Daniste also realized this.

Looking at the slightly mature girl in the forest, she also looked at Amelia at this time, but her expression seemed a little unhappy, and her words were a little fierce:

"Hello, Elf of the Yuexi Clan, you are the one who has taken on that great responsibility, right?"

"Hello, hello, it's me. Sister, what clan are you from?"

Emilia was still there and asked cautiously, not even paying attention to the little unicorn beside her. She was looking at the two owners standing in front of her with a puzzled expression. It obviously recognized them. So in order to prevent little Lianna from doing something that would be noticed by Emilia, Shade reached out and touched its head to make it relax.

This made the expression of the cat on Agelina's head even more unkind.

"My origins must be kept secret for the time being, but it's okay for you to call me sister."

The elf in the forest said absently, and did not continue to pay attention to Amelia:

"Let's not stand under the tree and talk. Let's go up and talk."

As he spoke, he grabbed the vines hanging from the tree trunk behind him and jumped to the second floor as if flying.

So the red-haired girl grabbed Luvia's hand and flew her up. Emilia and Agelina climbed on the back of little Lianna, and let the little unicorn carry them to the tree. On the second floor of the house, Xia Deze of course turned into a red butterfly.

The elf girl had prepared a round table, chairs and teacups on the platform outside the tree house, and Shade noticed that the number of chairs and teacups was just right.

However, the elf girl prepared not black tea but green tea. After everyone sat down, she said:

"I also know the purpose of your visit this time. You want to transfer your qualifications to this immature elf girl, right?"

Emilia was not angry, but she pursed her lips in embarrassment and said nothing.

Shade nodded:

"The qualifications represented by the umbilical cord, as well as Luvia's qualifications, need to be transferred. Is this troublesome? Will it take a long time?"

The elf girl shook her head:

"It's not that troublesome. You told me about this a long time ago, and I'm also prepared. But you're right, the transfer of qualifications is not as simple as making tea. The two umbilical cords are easy to transfer. It can be solved, but it will take some time to transfer Miss Luvia Anat’s qualifications, probably. Today is Monday, and this matter can only be done on Wednesday night.”

It's just that waiting for two days is not long. Shade is completely acceptable. Luvia has no objection, but the elf girl added:

"Although the qualifications symbolized by the umbilical cord can be transferred immediately, this will also cause the power contained in the umbilical cord to be completely absorbed by the young elves over there. The umbilical cord will no longer have any effect from now on. Can you accept this?"

"this"

Shade looked at Miss Danist again. Currently, the umbilical cord was the only way for her and Flora to temporarily regain their strength. Without the umbilical cord, unless the curse was completely resolved, there would be no way for them to get out of their current state.

"I'm fine, don't worry about me."

The red-haired girl shook her head indifferently, and then Shade nodded and said:

"No problem, let's transfer the umbilical cord qualifications now. Is it here?"

Emilia looked worried, probably thinking that the ritual required her to "eat the umbilical cord." Fortunately, the elves' rituals were usually not so bloody:

"Although you have just sat down, please stand up and follow me now. No, you don't need to go far, it's on the back of this tree."

The "backside" the elf girl refers to is the side that is not facing the sun. She has dug a small pool under the tree in advance.

When the group of people came over, the chocobos that were active nearby were drinking water around the waterhole, and then they were all chased away by the elf girl.

The waterhole is right under the big tree where the tree house is located, and it is a standard circle. Around the edge of the pool, the elf girl used the [Ocarina of Time] to carve complex elf runes on the ground, and then filled the carvings with emerald-colored mercury.
