"ah?"
Xihe was a little slow to react.
Jocelyn took the book and opened the first page. "I'll read it once. Deep in the distant ocean lies a dense forest. Here live the most beautiful, noblest, and purest race in the world: the elves. They wear white robes and carry bows and arrows..."
Her voice was as gentle as jade, and her face was clean and soft under the candlelight.
Xihe didn't notice any of this. She moved her small stool and sat next to the young man, her eyes following his pauses as she read down the pages line by line.
I finished reading the first page quickly.
Roslan didn't ask her if she understood, but turned to the next page and started reading.
Xihe...hurry up and read on.
But after reading for a while, Xihe was a little speechless. For five full pages, all of them were praising how elegant, charming, noble, mysterious, simple and pure the elves were.
There is no repetition of vocabulary.
"Why, it's funny?" Seeing her curled lips, the young man closed the book and looked at her indifferently.
Xihe coughed and quickly suppressed the corner of his mouth that was raised: "No, I completely agree with what the book says. Your elves are indeed a race blessed by nature, beautiful and noble."
laugh,
Ruoslan chuckled noncommittally and threw the book over: "Read."
Xihe: “…”
Do you think I'm a genius? She muttered to herself, then resignedly picked up the book, opened to page six, and began to read.
His pronunciation was clear and his sentences were fluent, completely inheriting the accent of Rosilan just now.
The young man raised an eyebrow in surprise and sat up straight.
"How do you pronounce this word?" Xihe suddenly got stuck.
She took the book and placed it in front of Rosilan, without any embarrassment on her face. After all, he had just read five pages, so it was normal for her to encounter something she didn't recognize.
"Xin." The young man said lightly.
Xihe said "Oh" and continued reading.
There is a full moon tonight, the breeze is gentle, and the candlelight is warm.
-
The next day, Xihe woke up.
She lifted the quilt and walked to the window, quickly pulling open the curtains to let the morning sun in.
The sun was warm, she stretched, started to wash up and eat breakfast, and before going out with her bag, she looked up at the second-floor balcony.
The windows were shut and the white curtains drawn.
Xihe pursed her lips, picked a bunch of flowers and placed them on the table in the yard, turned her feet into a tail, and swam towards the town.
The morning sun illuminated the earth. After gathering at the town square, the group headed towards the ocean.
A huge ship with white sails and more than twenty people standing around on it.
At a glance, there were more than a dozen taskers like Xihe, and the remaining knights with swords were all gathered behind the old man in white robes with solemn expressions.
The guy had white curly hair, wore a white robe, and sat on a stool with his eyes closed.
"Hey, do you know what we are going to do on this trip?" someone asked.
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.
"This, can't be..." Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by others.
The man looked at the position of the Holy See and whispered, "We are here to complete the mission. Don't do anything unnecessary or superfluous."
Everyone nodded and dispersed, some went to see the scenery, and some went to clean their weapons.
Xihe glanced at the person sitting next to him: "What are you doing?"
The dark-faced burly man chuckled and said, "Kalpana, let's discuss something."
Xihe squinted his eyes and said, "If you have to fart, do it now."
The burly man rubbed his hands together, revealing his snow-white teeth. "I'll stand beside you when we kill the enemy. I'll give you 10% of the reward this time. How's that?"
Xihe took a closer look at him, and it seemed that he knew something about the situation. He nodded and said, "No problem."
