"It's not convenient in the morning... Thank you for your kindness, Elder. We'll take our leave first."
"Don't worry. In the Land of Witches, vampires are not afraid of sunlight." The elder stroked his graying beard. "I'll send someone to find your friends tomorrow and even take you to Laman Island."
Luo Youyou's eyes lit up, but then she thought, wondering if this old man knew too much.
"Elder...we..."
"I know what you're thinking." The elder's eyes, though cloudy, shone with a shrewd light. "In the Magic City, there's nothing we don't know. And in the Magic City, without our help, you can't reach Laman Island."
When the elder said this, although he tried his best to conceal it, one could still hear his smugness. It seemed that the elves had a very high status in the Magic City.
Luo Youyou felt that the elder was harmless, perhaps because of his smile, perhaps because he did not hide his inner innocence, or perhaps because he transferred his feelings for Han Shuiyan to her kind. Regardless of his mood, Luo Youyou finally nodded.
In this completely unfamiliar place, even without danger, it was difficult to move forward. From the moment they agreed to Jiayi's request, they began living on the edge of a knife. Since it was all about taking risks, they were not afraid to seize the opportunity to trust others. Because the situation was already so bad that it couldn't get any worse.
The elder arranged a room for each of them and ordered the elves to take them to rest. The elves took them to their respective rooms in a depressed mood. The last one was Luo Youyou.
"Your name is Luo Youyou, right?" The elf stood in Luo Youyou's room and refused to leave.
Luo Youyou nodded.
"Your mother's name is Luo Yun, right?" the elf continued to ask.
Luo Youyou widened her eyes in surprise, "How did you know?"
The elf looked at Luo Youyou blankly. Then he shook his head, as if he had been thinking of an excuse for a long time, and finally said, "I don't know. Only the elder knows. He knows everything."
Luo Youyou's heart, which had been hanging in the air, sank again. It seemed that if she wanted to know her own life story, she would have to wait until she had collected all the holy artifacts and then go back to ask Luo Yun.
"Then you should have a good rest," the elf said as he stood at the door, preparing to close it. Before leaving, he added, "My name is Hanmi. Just call me if you need anything."
Luo Youyou smiled gratefully, "Thank you, Hanmi."
"You're welcome." Hanmi blushed and lowered his head. Luo Youyou's smile was too beautiful. It was so beautiful that he couldn't look directly at her. And in Hanmi's heart, the moment he saw Luo Youyou, he knew she was the princess they had been waiting for.
"By the way, Hanmi, can you please help me?" Luo Youyou said a little embarrassedly.
"I will definitely help if I can." Hanmi raised his bright eyes. There was nothing more honorable than serving the "Princess".
"They are all hungry...can we..."
"Don't worry, the elders have prepared everything and will send it to you in a moment... Um... do you want human food or..."
Luo Youyou looked at him in surprise, as if he knew everything about her, knew that her mother was Luo Yun, and knew that she could eat like a human and drink blood like a vampire. From the moment she met this elf, the mystery of her life experience became even more confusing, but she could not get a reasonable explanation.
"Hami, are you hiding something from me?" Luo Youyou stared into his eyes.
Hanmi took two steps back, avoiding her gaze. Such a look was too terrifying, as if it could devour everything, including a person's heart and his will. "No...no..."
Hanmi dropped these two words and fled from Luo Youyou's room.
The elder was still sitting on the throne in the front hall with his eyes closed, but one could tell from his expression that he was thinking.
"Elder, everything has been arranged." Hanmi walked to the elder, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
The elder didn't open his eyes, but said leisurely, "I know what you want to ask, but now is not the time. We have to wait for the master's instructions."
"But the master hasn't contacted us for thousands of years. I'm afraid he has forgotten us..." Hanmi murmured softly.
The elder suddenly opened his eyes, "How outrageous!"
The two words were so majestic that Hanmi trembled and shrank his neck, feeling at a loss like a child who had made a mistake.
"Don't let me hear such words again. How can you comment casually on the master's affairs? Remember?" The elder had a kind face and usually spoke in a gentle manner. He was rarely so strict, so just a simple sentence made Hanmi nod his head.
"Go and bring them food." The elder closed his eyes again, but laughed at himself in his heart. Although he educated Hanmi in this way, didn't he think so too?
Master, where are you?
