I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

The black side of the upright coffin faced the main entrance.

So what Anno is seeing now is the black-faced coffin of a demon.

Based solely on the almost identical black coffin of the evil spirit, Anno deduced that this was a black and white coffin.

Anno suppressed his shock and quickly walked around to the other side of the black coffin.

As expected, behind the black coffin was a white coffin depicting someone with arms crossed over their chest.

However, the white coffin had already been opened at a ninety-degree angle.

An old man with a frail face, dry and wrinkled skin, closed eyes, and shriveled body was sitting on a "stool" made of intertwined tree branches.

It's easy to tell from the old man's sharp ears that he is an elf.

The observer's name is Gloria.

The level is indeed 50.

However, the opponent's maximum health keeps decreasing and then returning to full!

Upon closer inspection, Anno discovered that the branches Gloria was sitting on were protruding from the white coffin behind her.

At the same time, countless tiny green vines connected to Gloria's body.

Do not!

It should be said that it is connected to Gloria's flesh and blood.

Dense, silky vines burrowed into Gloria's body, continuously supplying her with energy.

If Anno is not mistaken, what the white coffin sent to Gloria through the vines was life force.

Without the white coffin, Gloria would likely die very soon!

Moreover, the reason Gloria is still able to sit is entirely due to the vines supporting her body.

So that's how the white part of the black and white coffin is used?

Black represents a ban.

White represents life!

Anno's heart was stirred.

The fact that Gloria was able to keep someone whose life force was constantly fading is likely the reason she has survived until now.

"Gloria, how are you doing?"

Seeing Gloria's current state, Elisana knelt down in front of the white-haired old man with a look of heartache.

Upon hearing Elisana's voice, Gloria opened her eyes as if waking from a dream.

"Sister, you've come!"

Gloria's voice was soft and weak, barely audible.

It was as if the Grim Reaper's scythe was already at her neck, making one feel that she might close her eyes again at any moment.

When Anno heard Gloria address Elisana, he thought Gloria had mispronounced her name or was senile.

But Elisana cupped Gloria's aged face in her hands, forcing a smile, and said, "Gloria, your sister is here! Your sister brought President Anno with her!"

Elisana did not deny that she was the older sister.

Anno was startled, thinking to himself: Was Elisana deliberately going along with Gloria's words, or was Elisana really Gloria's sister!

This is not impossible.

On her way here, Elisana told Anno that she was freed from the seal by Gloria.

Who knows how many years Elisana's seal has been in place?

It's entirely possible that Elisana really is an ancient elf from the War of the Gods.

"Anno...Anno...Anno..."

Gloria kept repeating Anno's name, but her body seemed unable to move, and her neck could only remain in one position.

When Anno saw Elisana winking at him, he quickly walked up to Gloria.

When Anno appeared in Gloria's field of vision, the latter's cloudy eyes suddenly became clear, and light seemed to appear in her pupils.

"Exactly the same! Exactly the same!"

Tears began to well up in Gloria's eyes and then streamed down her face.

Seeing this, Anno finally lost his patience and asked, "Elisana, Gloria, what kind of riddle are you two playing?"

Regarding the engagement, the black and white coffins, and your claim of "exactly the same," isn't it time to make things clear?

ta ta ta ......

Footsteps sounded behind me.

Anno frowned; he had assumed there were only the three of them in the palace.

"Don't worry, Anno! We invited you here to explain all this to you!"

Upon hearing a somewhat familiar voice, Anno suddenly turned around and looked behind her.

The familiar green dress, the familiar figure, the familiar white mask with green patterns.

"Winnie?"

Anno opened his mouth wide, unsure of what to say for a moment.

Winnie walked over to Gloria and Elisana, and under Anno's watchful gaze, removed the mask from her face.

Beneath the mask, Winnie possessed a flawless and stunningly beautiful face.

Winnie radiated a maternal glow that extinguished any evil thoughts in people's hearts.

Without any hesitation, Anno activated the [Observer] ability.

The reason we couldn't investigate before was indeed because of the mask.

Anno's [Observer] can now conduct investigations.

only......

[Target level too high, information cannot be retrieved]!

This suggestion was unexpected, yet also reasonable.

Looking at the three elves in front of him, Anno suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Anno, we meet again!"

Winnie smiled at Anno and said softly, "I heard that you came to the Elf Forest to repay my life-saving grace."

How do you feel when you see me now?

"To see the person who died in front of me to save me reappear before me."

Anno gave a wry smile and said, "At first, I just felt it was absurd, but I was also relieved."

"Oh?" Winnie tilted her head, puzzled. "Why did you seem relieved? Did you not want me to die?"

"The fact that you were able to save me under those circumstances shows that you had absolutely no ill intentions towards me."

My friend who was willing to save me did not die, and his strength far exceeded my expectations.

In this era where everyone wants to kill the Summoner, it's always good to have more friends.

However, there are some things I just don't understand!

Anno abruptly changed the subject, asking with a serious expression, "Forest Elf, no, Tree of Life! Why did you go to such lengths to save me?"
