When Leslie was pulled out of the water by Arthur, her face was as white as paper.

Wendy Shani was relieved to see that he was still breathing.

Leslie cast several priest healing spells on herself to make herself look like a living elf, rather than an undead who had just crawled out of the ground.

The human woman they rescued twitched her eyelids and slowly opened her eyes.

"Who is Simon? The one who threw you down from here?" Wendy Shane asked casually as she checked on her condition.

The woman sat up and saw that Wendy Shani had a ranger's sword at her waist and an elven bow on her shoulder. Her previously desolate eyes rekindled with fire.

She grabbed Wendy's wrist with surprising strength.

"I'll give you gold coins, ah, no, all my gold coins have been stolen... but, but if we go back to the surface, I can give you a lot of money!"

"Could you take me to Simon?"

“He’s in Allendas City!” the woman cried, clinging tightly to Wendy Shane.

Li Aili had a strong premonition that she wanted to hear this person tell her story.

“Elendas is in this direction, and that’s exactly where we’re going,” Li Aili said.

Wendy Shani looked at Li Aili with surprise.

Clearly, she did not think that bringing this frail human woman along would be the right choice.

"Wouldn't that be bad?" she asked worriedly.

"The Spider Forest is extremely dangerous; even the drow elves are terrified of it."

“It’s okay, Arthur is here.” Li Aili glanced at her husband.

Arthur, however, had a sullen face.

The man may be handsome, but when he frowns, the heavy, ruthless aura he exudes on the battlefield is enough to frighten most people.

Wendy Shane tugged at Li Aili's sleeve slightly and asked in a low voice, "Duke... are you a little unhappy?"

Li Aili smiled slightly, "It's okay, don't worry about it."

She glanced at Arthur, who had a long face, and knew without a doubt why he did.

"He was probably mourning his dead honeymoon."

hehe.

If it weren't for Charles's affair, she probably would have perished in the bedroom.

Wendy Shane: "..."

After using the arcane pointer to find their way, the group set off again.

This human woman is the only daughter of a high-ranking nobleman from the Fran Empire, one of the six great empires, and her name is Tracy.

“I have been in poor health since I was a child, so I lived in the countryside with my grandmother.”

"There is a grove of trees behind my grandmother's house."

"There are many cute little deer in the woods, and I often go there to play with them..."

Until one day, the young noblewoman found a handsome dark elf in the forest.

Of course, she now knew that it was a drow elf who had escaped from the dungeon.

"When I was little, my father gave me a black pearl necklace."

"I like it very much and cherish it very much."

“Simon… When I first met Simon, I felt that he was like a… Black Pearl elf.”

As a child, Tracy loved to stick close to Simon.

Simon also did his best to protect the fragile human girl.

They spent their days together in the carefree countryside... until the girl was about to come of age.

By then, the once adorable little girl had grown into a graceful young woman.

She became a stunning beauty.

And her elven male servant... time has left no trace on the face of the immortal.

He was still tall, handsome, and elegant.

Yes, Tracy fell in love with her valet.

"I used my poor health as an excuse to avoid social seasons year after year."

When I was 18, my mother came to my grandmother's house to fetch me in person.

"I had no choice but to take Simon back to the capital."

The tragedy began from that time.

Although Tracy didn't make her first appearance at the social season until she was 18, her beauty and prominent family background made her a sought-after figure among aristocratic young men.

At that time, Tracy's mother seemed to have become suspicious of Simon.

Therefore, Tracy could only temporarily distance herself from Simon, and deal with those enthusiastic young noblemen every day, both physically and mentally exhausted.

“During that time, whenever I saw Simon’s sad expression, I thought… I thought it would be better to just run away with him.”

"In fact...we really did do that."

The nightmare stemmed from a prince's marriage proposal.

The French emperor had countless mistresses and so many illegitimate children that he himself couldn't remember them all.

The upper classes of the six great empires often made fun of the princes of Fran, comparing them to worthless things.

But no matter how worthless they are, they still have royal blood flowing in their veins, and no matter how weak they are, they still have the right to inherit the throne.

Therefore, Tracy's parents immediately agreed to the marriage on her behalf.

That day, the gentle elf, for the first time, disregarded everything and found Tracy.

“He pulled me…” Tracy said, tears streaming down her face, “and said… let’s go together.”

That was the happiest moment for the girl.

It was also the beginning of a nightmare.

All along, Tracy had thought that the gentle elf had overcome all obstacles, repelled the pursuing knights, and bypassed the mercenaries' encirclement and interception.

"Finally, we settled down in a village in a small kingdom."

"Until...one day, my father's obituary was published in the newspaper..."

"That was my father who truly loved me... How could I remain unmoved?"

However, it was indeed this father who caused Tracy to lose her husband forever.
