After a long time, the long-haired woman finally took back the mycelium in her mouth and licked the corner of her mouth with satisfaction.
The old thief, whose eyes rolled back, had become extremely dry in the physical sense, like a mummy that had been weathered for decades, and was thrown aside.
She took out a fruit with a human face, placed it on the bar, and then knelt down respectfully in front of it.
Compared to the fruit she had given Andy before, this fruit was several times larger, emitting a more evil and ominous aura, and trembling slowly, like some kind of living thing.
The believers also knelt down and pressed their heads to the ground, showing their utmost piety.
The fruit with a human face finally slowly opened its eyes.
"Priest Sharon, you have failed."
"The Sword Ghost is not dead yet, and the Bloodstone has fallen into his hands. The Mother Goddess needs a new top-grade one."
The words were cold and hoarse, and it was impossible to tell whether they were a man or a woman, or whether there was any emotion in them. Rather than being a reproach, it sounded more like a statement of a cold fact.
Sharon replied in the same tone, "My dear compatriots, the Bloodstone has been taken by that Sword Ghost. I think it will be difficult to obtain it again."
"However, I have gained something other than bloodstone."
"The descendants of Violet are in this academy!"
When she said this, a rare hint of excitement appeared in Sharon's eyes, and the fruit also opened hard, and more mucus flowed out.
Although the blood stone that inherited the power of the last vampire ancestor was powerful, it was too fierce. It would take a lot of effort for the Mother Goddess to digest it.
But a violet descendant who hasn't even grown up yet can be exploited and plundered by them! This is the best sacrifice!
"However, it's not easy to do it in the academy."
"Don't worry, we'll have our chance soon."
Sarah said, looking up into the void.
Her gaze, through the gift of the Mother Goddess, extended to the lifeless pupils covered with mycelium of a certain bird in the night sky, and slowly fell to the descendants of the elves entering from the watchtower.
Chapter 82 The Last Day
The afternoon classes were always drowsy and Nia always fell asleep.
Nia was the only one who dared to sleep in the class of the strict homeroom teacher Shaduo.
Of course, poor performance in class will result in point deductions, and too many deductions may even affect graduation.
The magic academy calculates credits. Due to Nia's excellent practical performance and her full marks in the previous practical test, she has a large amount of credits. In the spirit of "no use, no waste", Nia either skips classes or sleeps in, trying to maximize the use of credits.
Under the envious and awe-inspiring gazes of her classmates, and the almost murderous death gaze of the black-haired teacher, the green-haired girl who was sleeping soundly suddenly pried her eyes open and raised her head in a daze.
Almost at the same time, the school bell rang on time.
Nia used the resilience honed by years of risk-taking in odd ways to ensure she didn't miss any recess or the school bell.
As soon as school was over, Nia was fully revived. She rushed out of the classroom with her two best friends and went to the commercial street in the college to find food.
Led by Nia, the trio who had already grabbed the ice cream were able to avoid the crowds that followed and take a leisurely walk.
Nia excitedly invited him, "By the way, how about coming over to Roy's house this weekend to celebrate getting a perfect score on our midterm exam?"
Amy, nibbling her ice cream, couldn't help but grumble, "You just want to have fun, right?"
"Just say whether you're coming or not?"
"Come on! Alice's cooking skills are amazing, we can't miss it!" Jenny raised her hand cooperatively, in high spirits.
"I'll definitely come, but it's a rare occasion for us to have a meal together, so don't just play around." Amy moved closer to Nia, lifted her hair from her temples, and cast a playful look at her, beckoning her, "Don't worry, we'll help you create opportunities."
Nia, who was eating ice cream, choked on the spot. The cold water went straight into her throat and made her head hurt.
Whenever this topic comes up, Amy finds it a great pleasure to admire Nia's shameful and hasty look.
But this time, Nia didn't force a smile or deny it, but just turned her head away slightly.
"Hate it, whatever you want."
Amy and Jenny peeked at Nia's cute pink face, looked at each other, both with eyes wide open and brows raised with joy.
Oh wow, this is interesting!
This girl's attitude is obviously different from before!
Ever since returning from the practical test, Nia often giggled to herself and was unusually excited when talking about the practical test.
The two had long guessed that something must have happened between her and Roy during the practical test and that there had been some progress, but they didn't expect Nia's attitude to change so drastically!
"Sure enough, you are now... "
At this moment, Nia, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and looked straight in the other direction.
She suddenly turned around and smiled apologetically: "Sorry, I suddenly have something to do, you guys go back first!"
After Nia finished speaking, she swallowed the ice cream in a few gulps and ran away without a trace, leaving her two best friends no chance to stop her.
This guy is really shy, right?
Amy and Jenny both shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
However, this did not affect their plan on how to assist their bestie.
In the woods far away from the students, no one noticed that there was an outsider who was obviously different from the teachers and students.
She wore a light, cool vest, with runes tattooed on her bare arms. But her most striking features were her long, pointed ears and her beautiful face.
She is an elf.
The elf with a slender figure and delicate features would attract attention in any country, but none of the students passing by noticed her presence.
Every descendant of elves is a master of stealth. Even if they are not [Forest Elves], their extraordinary bloodline will have stealth abilities.
And Natasha is the extraordinary person of the [Earth Elf].
Nia was not surprised by the other party's stealth ability, but was surprised by the fact that the other party appeared in the academy.
"Sister Nana, why are you here? Could it be that you missed me and came all the way from the Emerald Court to see me?" Nia said as she opened her arms and gave her a big hug.
Natasha, who had originally had an indifferent expression, immediately glared at her after hearing that, raised her fist and punched her on the head, causing her to scream in pain.
"Hey, let's talk it out, why are you hitting me?!" The girl squatted with her head in her hands and curled up like a little ostrich, with a look of grievance on her face.
"How dare you say that?! What were you thinking? You actually ran out of the Emerald Council alone?! The whole country is going to explode!"
Natasha finished her words angrily, then held her temple and said with a headache, "I'll let it go, but your mom is the one who's really going crazy!"
Upon hearing this, Nia shuddered all over, and immediately lost all her mood to act cute and pitiful. She stood up tremblingly, with deep disgust and fear on her face.
"Could it be that even mom is here?"
Natasha gave her a weak, bitter smile: "What do you think?"
Nia's eyes rolled back and she almost fainted on the spot.
What a joke! As the Chief of the Emerald Council, how could he just chase her abroad so casually, even to the Citadel thousands of miles away?!
Nia originally thought that her mother would at most send some pursuers, or even give up after searching in vain, but she never expected that the other party would put aside government affairs and come to arrest people in person!
The emperor personally led the army to chase his daughter. It seems that he is determined to capture her back!
"No, how can a head of state have nothing to do?!"
"If you hadn't run away, would she have had so much free time as to come all the way to the Citadel?!"
Such a reasonable question left Nia completely unable to refute.
Natasha held her shoulders, looked at her with concern, and said earnestly, "Niya, this is the end."
"You've seen the outside world as you wished. It's time to go home."
Over the past few days, Nia has become completely accustomed to the wonderful campus life. Now asking her to go back to the dull and miserable life in the Green Court is as painful as cutting off the power of an internet-addicted teenager.
In fact, Nia had thought about this day, and she also understood that she could not beat the powerful, and that sooner or later she would be caught by her own mother.
She had already been mentally prepared.
She thought she was mentally prepared.
However, when the moment really came, she couldn't stop trembling at the thought of never seeing the black-haired boy again.
The day when we toasted together under the brilliant starry sky and imagined future adventures seems like yesterday, but it is gradually becoming blurred and shrouded in a faint mist of confusion.
Seeing Nia lowering her head and remaining silent, Natasha was about to continue persuading her when she heard her suddenly speak.
"give me sometime."
"One day. Give me one more day. Then I will go to see my mother myself."
As a citizen of the Emerald Court, Natasha's mission was to bring Nia back today.
But the girl's fragile gaze that seemed to be fleeting and her hoarse and dim voice made Natasha's chest tremble violently, and in the end she couldn't make up her heart.
"Okay, just one day."
Nia squinted her moist eyes and smiled softly: "Well, the last day."
Chapter 83: Janetia's Wish
Today's Adventurer's Guild is as noisy and busy as ever.
Among the crowd, there was a woman wearing an exquisite robe and with green hair. She stood alone in a secluded corner of the guild, gazing at the wall covered with paintings commemorating the glory of adventurers.
To be more precise, she was looking at a broken harp.
That was exactly what Ain Violet had left behind.
It is also one of the few memories she has of her late husband.
Ain had requested that he leave this harp that had accompanied him for half his life in the Adventurer's Guild he loved, which was also the place where their love began.
Adventurers of all kinds came by, some hurried by, some were free and lazy, and some, like Ain when he first came here as a young man, were curious, ignorant, and a little nervous.
However, due to her extraordinary ability to conceal her aura, no one noticed that there was a beautiful elf here.
Janetia slowly looked towards a corner, and in a trance, she seemed to have returned to the past.
I saw my handsome lover playing the lyrical piano, and my friend with black hair and black eyes who was always weird.
I had already taken it for granted when I was young, but now I miss it so much, but it is destined to never come true.
"Jantiya, you could have let me know before you came, and I would have come to pick you up personally."
A soft, old whisper echoed in her ears. Janetia turned her head, but there was no trace of longing in her eyes, and her face no longer had the innocence and youthfulness of her youth.
She turned back into the leader of the elves, the chief of the Green Council.
The person who came was a kind old man with gray hair and beard, leaning on a staff and wearing a gray robe. He was as kind as any old grandfather in a fairy tale, but he was as capable as any great wizard in the world.
The dean of the magic academy, her mentor, the legendary magician [Sage] Booker who participated in the [Third Demonic Tide] when humans defeated the demons at the beginning of the third era.
He also had the means to conceal his aura and figure, enough to make the entire guild ignore his existence.
Booker looked up at the broken harp on the wall, and a trace of nostalgia similar to that of Yinia flashed in his slightly jerkish gray eyes.
Ain had been his best and most complacent disciple.
But there was no respect in Janetia's narrowed cold eyes, and there was even a hint of alienation.
"You could have told me about Nia, but you didn't."
"How could a legendary great magician, a hero who led humanity to victory over the demons, be so blinded by age that he can't even see through the disguise of a Sequence 8 girl?"
Booker smiled calmly and said, "That child is very good. She should stay in the academy for further studies."
"Even if she smuggled into many countries and forged her identity, she is just an ignorant child?" Janetia raised her eyebrows, her tone tinged with mockery.
Booker stroked his beard and shook his head slowly: "I prefer to call it clever."
"Perhaps you could relax your discipline on her a little and not force her to do things she doesn't want to do." The old man gave his advice in a soothing tone.
Janetia's eyebrows sank, she glared at him, and said coldly and rudely: "Perhaps you can respect a mother's decision and stop interfering in her family affairs."
Seeing the old man silent, Janetia turned around and pressed him: "You also know that Nia shouldn't show up so easily. I did that to protect her."
Booker knew exactly what Gentia was talking about.
This is not alarmist.
