Chapter 919! A person who is more worthy of appreciation than the scenery
……
The soup in the fireplace was bubbling and boiling. Since it was just time for dinner, Slein served a bowl of soup to Shen Ye and Jim respectively.
However, although Slein was a magician, he seemed to live a very simple life. There were only unknown mushrooms and wild vegetables in the soup. Shen Ye stirred it with a spoon but did not find any meat in it, which made him a little disappointed because he was a meat lover.
However, as a guest at someone else's home, he naturally could not complain, so he could only eat dry bread with vegetable soup.
But Jim was a friend of Slien who had known him for many years. He was not polite and said directly: "Slien, you are a magician, and you eat this?"
"You came at the wrong time. I just happened to be eating vegetarian food these days." Shi Lieyin smiled. "Although there is no meat, there is wine, the best pine nut wine. Do you want some?"
Jim nodded immediately: "Of course... well, give me some of your treasured tobacco."
"I knew you were after my little stock..." Slein shook his head helplessly, but still gave it to the dwarf...
Drinking the so-called fine pine liqueur, Shen Ye listened to the conversation between the magician and the dwarf. However, they were talking about topics that Shen Ye was not very interested in. So after finishing his own wine and saying hello to the two of them, he walked out of the wooden house with the vegetable soup.
Outside the wooden house, Shen Ye looked around and finally found a big tree. Then he sat under the tree, drinking soup and looking at the stars and the moon in the sky... The stars in the magical world were particularly bright, and the moon was particularly large, which brought him a different visual experience.
Just as he was admiring this rare night view, a breeze suddenly blew, and then a faint natural floral fragrance drifted into his nose.
Shen Ye paused while drinking the soup because he was very familiar with the aroma. He had smelled it on the female elf in the afternoon.
"I didn't expect her to come into the village... Strange, I didn't even sense her... Well, she's an elf user who's proficient in magic, and she's quite capable."
Thinking of this, Shen Ye began to drink the soup as if nothing had happened, but the aroma he smelled became clearer and clearer. It was obvious that the female elf was getting closer and closer to him.
He had already guessed what the female elf wanted to do to him. He had scared her in the afternoon, and now she probably wanted to scare him back.
And his guess was not wrong at all. Behind him, the elf girl who had cast a magic that could obscure her perception was tiptoeing towards Shen Ye.
"I'm going to scare you to death... No, it's not good to scare you to death, I'll just scare you until you scream." Thinking of the scene in the afternoon when she was scared by Shen Ye and screamed and lost her composure, the elf girl felt particularly unhappy. She must get back at him.
At this time, she had come behind Shen Ye, only one step away from Shen Ye. After taking a deep breath, she suddenly jumped in front of Shen Ye, baring her fangs and claws while making a threatening sound.
However... Shen Ye, who had already prepared himself, just responded calmly with an "ah", and the expression on his face was as exaggerated as possible.
Suddenly, the elf girl shrugged her shoulders in frustration, and then puffed her lips and asked: "How did you find me?"
Shen Ye didn't say anything, but just handed the bowl in his hand to the elf girl.
The elf girl was stunned for a moment, then she blinked her innocent eyes and looked at Shen Ye: "I have eaten."
"I'm not giving it to you to eat... I mean, do you smell anything?" Shen Ye said helplessly.
"Of course I smelled it, there were mushrooms added to the soup...you...ah..." The elf girl reacted immediately.
"My nose is very sensitive. I can smell your scent from a long distance away." Shen Ye said, pointing to his nose.
The elf girl's face suddenly turned red, and then she said angrily: "It's so boring."
Shen Ye understood what she meant, so he smiled and said, "How about we do it again, and I pretend I know nothing?"
"No." The elf girl glanced to the side: "That would be even more boring."
"Okay!" Shen Ye shrugged, then patted the seat beside him and said, "You must be tired after following me for so long. Come, sit down and take a rest."
"I'm not following you!" The elf girl replied proudly, but still sat down next to him, but very far away from him.
Shen Ye didn't care. He looked at the bowl in his hand and then handed it to the elf girl: "Don't you really want to drink some? It tastes very good."
"No, you've already drunk it." The elf girl showed a look of disgust.
"Well...but I don't dislike the fruit you ate..." But looking at the elf girl glaring at him, Shen Ye quickly changed his words: "Okay, okay, I won't say anything."
But looking at the elf girl's face that was so beautiful that it could not be described in words, Shen Ye could not help but ask: "Little girl, my name is Shen Ye, what's yours?"
The elf girl looked a little smaller than an ordinary girl, so in order to get her to speak, Shen Ye deliberately used the nickname "little girl".
Sure enough, the elf girl glanced at him with dissatisfaction and said, "Don't call me little girl. I'm already 160 years old. I'm more than old enough to be your grandmother..."
However, even though she was very dissatisfied with Shen Ye's address to her, the elf girl still introduced herself: "My name is Deedlit... You can call me Dido."
Then she pointed to her ears and continued, "As you can see, I am an elf."
"I know that." Shen Ye nodded: "I can only say that, just as the legend says, the elves are indeed very beautiful and elegant."
"You have good taste. You are much more polite than your dwarf friend." Deedlit had heard Jim slandering the elves more than once along the way. Now, hearing Shen Ye's praise, she smiled so much that her eyebrows curved.
She is over 160 years old, which is very old in the eyes of humans, but she is still very young among the elves, so she still has the heart of a girl.
"Come to think of it, why didn't you stay with your dwarf friend, but came out alone?" Deedlit asked curiously, "Have you discovered me a long time ago?"
"No." Shen Ye shook his head: "It's mainly because I'm not interested in the topics they talk about. I feel bored so I came out to relax and take a look at the scenery."
"Oh, I see! I thought you had discovered me." Deedlit said, feeling a little disappointed for some reason.
But Shen Ye's next words made her smile again.
"But I'm lucky. I met someone who is more worthy of my appreciation than the scenery." Shen Ye said with a smile: "It's you, Miss Dido."
