I raise elves in Florian

King's capital.

"It's over!"

Aize watched as the people below cheered and celebrated this moment.

"Yes! Our adventure ends here."

Simmel turned to look at everyone, his eyes filled with reluctance. He knew that everyone would be busy with their own things in the days to come, and they wouldn't be able to get together anymore.

"Ten years! We've been through so much!"

Unexpectedly, ten years have passed just like that, and Haita couldn't help but reminisce about the past.

"On the day of their departure, Simmel and Azer were not respectful enough to His Majesty the King and were nearly executed."

I can't help but laugh whenever I think of Haita. Back then, Simmel wasn't as mature and composed as she is now.

"If things don't go well, our adventure will end there."

Frilian and Shi Yichen saw the situation clearly from the side. The soldiers had drawn their swords, just waiting for His Majesty the King to give the order to execute Simmel and Aize.

The group nodded. Indeed, if they hadn't apologized so readily, His Majesty the King wouldn't have been so petty. Otherwise, they would have had no choice but to resist; they couldn't have just stood there and let him kill them.

"Also, Haita will be useless because of his hangover."

Simmel and the others recalled the scene, and how Haita's hangover caused them to take many wrong turns.

"And I am exceptionally outstanding..."

Frillie tilted her little head back, thinking she had done a great job.

"When you were almost eaten by the mimic, I really wanted to just abandon you. If it weren't for Shi Yichen, you would have been eaten by the mimic countless times."

Aize muttered to himself, "I don't know why Frillie just wouldn't believe it and kept trying to open the mimics, even though she could tell at a glance they were mimics. Every time, the mimics just ate them."

"Hahaha! That's true!"

Simmel and the others burst into laughter. How could an elf who had lived for over a thousand years be killed by a mimic alone? What else could it be but stupidity?

"If I had to pick the most reliable one, it would be Shi Yichen. I've received a lot of care from her over the years."

Simmel looked at Shi Yichen, who was teasing Frilian. She was the most reliable person in the group, without a doubt. She had helped them resolve crises many times, and her strange and wonderful magic had brought a lot of fun along the way.

"Of course, she is Shi Yichen!"

Frillie said smugly, "As long as you praise Shi Yichen, we're good friends."

"I can't stand it, all these are such awful memories! But this adventure was so much fun, it's great to be able to go on an adventure with you guys."

With a look of reluctance in her eyes, Simmel looked at everyone happily and said that their adventure had come to an end, and now it was time for them to live their own lives. She wondered when they would be able to get together again.

"Yes!"

How could Haita not understand the reluctance in Simmel's words? They were friends who had grown up together since childhood.

"Although it's just a short trip!"

In Frilian's eyes, this journey was only ten years, but she cherished the laughter and joy of those ten years. It was another precious memory besides Shi Yichen.

"Short-term? What are you talking about? That's a full ten years!"

Simmel still didn't understand the elves' understanding of time. In the elves' eyes, ten years was roughly the same as ten days. For Simmel and the others, it was a full ten years, but for Frilian, it was just a blink of an eye.

“Look at Haita, he has completely turned into an old man.”

Simmel gestured for Frilian to look at what Haita looked like now; the young man from back then had become a middle-aged man.

"That's so rude."

Haita said with a forced smile.

"That's exactly right!"

Frillie noticed that Haita's appearance had indeed changed somewhat.

"That's so rude."

Just as everyone was chatting, a shooting star streaked across the sky.

"Ok?"

Everyone's attention was drawn to it.

"The time has come."

Aize also looked up at the sky.

"It's called 'Half-Century Meteor,' right?"

Haita said, holding a wine glass and looking at the shooting star in the sky.

"A meteor shower that happens only once every fifty years, perfectly timed for the start of a peaceful era! How beautiful!"

Simmel gazed at the beautiful meteor shower in the sky with admiration; it was the first time he and Haita had ever seen a meteor shower in half a century.

"The moment has finally come!"

Frillie took out the gift she had prepared beforehand from her bag and held it in her hand.

"What's wrong, Frillie?"

Simmel couldn't help but ask, noticing Frilian's strange behavior.

"Today is Yichen's birthday, and I always spend this time with her."

Frilian whispered to Simmel and the others.

Although it was just an ordinary sentence, it allowed Simmel and his men to grasp the key point.

"every time!"

This means that there have been at least several times, and all of them happened around this time, which is when the meteor of half a century has arrived.

This means that a birthday is celebrated every fifty years, and there have been several fifty-year cycles in total. By any calculation, it must have been several hundred years!

"Why didn't you tell us about something so important? We haven't prepared anything yet!"

Simmel and the other two looked at Frillie speechlessly. How could she not tell them about something so important? They hadn't prepared anything.

"You didn't ask!"

She and Shi Yichen usually spend their time together, and they're used to it.

"Let's think of a solution while Shi Yichen is still away!"

Simmel and the other two huddled together and came up with a solution.

“Let’s use what we have! I’ll go get the cake. Haita and Aize, you two set up the venue. Frilian, you go and hold off Shi Yichen.”

Simmel quickly came up with a solution; fortunately, the city had everything, and there was still time.

"understand!"

The three of them quickly got to work.

the other side.

Frilian found Shi Yichen.

"Why are you here? I was just about to look for you."

Shi Yichen was carrying many things in her hands: food, wine, grapes, and a magic book. She had come over to get some because she saw that the food on the table was almost finished.

"I came to check on you because you hadn't come back yet."

When Frilian saw Simmel give her a "okay" sign, she reached out and took some of the things from Shi Yichen's hands, put them in her arms, and then walked towards Simmel.

"How come it looks different now?"

When Yichen walked to the table, he found that it looked different and had many more decorations.

"Ta-da!"

Simmel pulled out a large cake from behind her back, with a candle on it and the words "Happy Birthday" written on it.

"I see. No wonder I felt like you were hiding something from me."

Shi Yichen smiled happily.

"Come and make a wish!"

Simmel lit the candles on the cake.
