I raise elves in Florian

Philen covered her mouth and chuckled; she could already picture Frilian's reaction when she opened the box containing the grimoire.

"Hey!"

Frilian excitedly opened the treasure chest in front of her, only to find a pile of junk and several bags of coins. Frilian rummaged through the junk, but found nothing of value.

"That shouldn't be the case! My intuition is never wrong."

Frillie stroked her chin, looking seriously at the remaining treasure chests. She didn't believe there weren't good things inside, so she randomly chose another chest.

"Lady Frilian, I already told you there's nothing good in here."

Standing behind Frillie, Philen said, "If you're going to put on an act, you have to go all the way. Even though she already knows that Shi Yichen hid a magic book inside, she has to pretend that she doesn't know anything."

"Trust me, Philon, there's definitely something good in here."

Frilian stroked the treasure chest in front of her, looking at Philon with a confident expression.

"here we go again."

Seeing Frilian's expression, Philon sighed speechlessly. Frilian always said the same thing when opening treasure chests, but she never got anything useful. Philon suddenly felt exhausted.

"Don't you think Frillie looks adorable like this?"

Shi Yichen stood beside Philon, his eyes filled with tenderness as he looked at Frilian, who was squatting in front of the treasure chest. Frilian was so small that it made one want to hug her.

"Perhaps only Lord Shi Yichen thinks so."

Philon was at a loss for words looking at Frilian like this. They could find out if there was anything good in the treasure chest by using magic.

But Frilian insisted on believing that magic could go wrong and insisted on opening it to see if there was anything inside, which made Philon feel very helpless.

"That shouldn't be the case."

Frilian stared blankly at the empty treasure chest for a moment, then quickly opened the other treasure chests. Inside, there was nothing but some scrap metal and some money.

"fail."

Frillie squatted down dejectedly. She had thought there would be something good, but there was nothing at all. She had been so hopeful; it was such a waste of her energy.

"There's another one here; maybe there'll be something good inside."

Shi Yichen used magic to place the last treasure chest, the one where she had secretly placed the grimoire, steadily in front of Frillie and said.

"This is the last one. My intuition tells me there must be something good in here."

Frilian stared intently at the last treasure chest, silently praying that it would contain something good.

"Click!"

Frilian unlocked the last treasure chest, and a golden light shone out, so dazzling that Frilian couldn't help but squint.

"The Golden Legend"

"I just knew there was something good in there."

Frilian happily took the old magic book from the treasure chest and ran to Shi Yichen to show off her spoils.

"That's impressive!"

Seeing the incredibly happy Frilian, Shi Yichen's face was also full of smiles. Although he was the one who put the things there, it was all worth it to make Frilian so happy.

"Of course, my intuition is very accurate."

Frillie raised her delicate chin, looking at Shi Yichen with an air of superiority, she couldn't wait to study this magic book.

"But you can't look now! Don't forget our mission today."

Seeing Frillie's expression, Shi Yichen knew what she was thinking and quickly spoke up.

"I see."

Upon hearing Shi Yichen's words, Frilian's face immediately fell, and she could only miserably lead Philon to continue cleaning the coast.

Felen, walking behind Frilian, couldn't help but laugh at Frilian's expression. Only Shi Yichen could make Frilian react like that.

night.

The three returned to the hotel after a busy day.

Shi Yichen borrowed the hotel's kitchen to prepare a sumptuous dinner for Frilian and Philon.

"I'm starting!"

After Yichen and Philon finished their prayers, Frilian couldn't wait to pick up her knife and fork and start eating.

"Lady Frilian, eat slowly, no one will take it from you."

Philon looked at the hurried Frilian and couldn't help but say something.

"I couldn't help it, I was so hungry."

Frillie said something to Philon, then continued eating heartily.

"Is the cleanup going smoothly?"

The old man who had entrusted the task then entered the inn.

"There's probably about a third left."

Frillie thought for a moment and said to the old man while eating that they had also cleared out a lot of ship wreckage in the past three months. Because it had not been cleared for decades, the accumulated ship wreckage was getting bigger and bigger, making the cleanup work particularly slow.

Will I be able to make it to the New Year's celebration?

The old man asked Frilian, "Since the New Year's celebration is approaching, if the shipwrecks in the sea are not cleaned up, it will affect the beauty of the sunrise during the celebration."

"It definitely can."

Frilian assured the old man that if it were just her and Philon on their own, they might be able to complete it, or they might not, but with Chen around, Frilian felt that none of this mattered.

"That's good. Then please make sure you watch the sunrise this time, Lady Frilian."

With Frilian's assurance, the old man was relieved and even invited Frilian and the others to their New Year's celebration.

"can."

Frilian glanced at Shi Yichen beside her, and Shi Yichen nodded back. Having received Shi Yichen's response, Frilian agreed to the old man's request.

"Then I won't disturb your meal any longer."

Having received Frilian's reply, the old man did not linger at the inn, bid farewell to the three of them, and left.

After dinner, the three of them returned to their room.

"So full~"

As soon as Frilian returned to her room, she couldn't help but lie down on the bed. Shi Yichen sat on the edge of the bed and gently rubbed Frilian's tummy.

Philen had already gone to take a shower, and after she finished, it would be their turn.

After a short while, Frillie closed her eyes. Shi Yichen looked at the sleeping Frillie and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Frilian, we haven't taken a bath yet!"

Seeing that Philen had finished washing, Shi Yichen carried Frilian into the bathroom. The bathroom had a large wooden tub, and it wasn't crowded even if two people went in.

Shi Yichen had already used magic to create hot water in the bucket. He stripped himself and Frilian naked, tested the water temperature, put Frilian in, and then followed her in.

"It's so warm."

While soaking in the hot water, Frilian said something and then hugged Shi Yichen, who was also taking a bath.

The two embraced each other naked, and an ambiguous atmosphere immediately filled the air.

Feeling Shi Yichen's hands massaging her body, Frilian slowly leaned over, the distance between them getting closer and closer, her eyes filled with love as she looked at Shi Yichen.
