I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Instead, they might even assume that her identity is something that is not allowed in this place.

The female Forest Elf with blonde hair even gave Aurdis a sharp glare.

A look that seemed to say that she was annoyed with Aurdis being here.

"(We can't decide on this. We'd better bring her before the King and Queen,)" the brown-haired male Forest Elf - who seemed to be the oldest among them - spoke.

Feeling that it was the best decision, the female Forest Elf nodded. But not without scathing remarks on Aurdis.

"(After deciding to cut ties unilaterally, you suddenly came here just like that. Did you end up regretting it?)" she said.

"(Enough! You can't talk to the princess like that,)" the male Forest Elf looked at her with warning eyes. There's also a subtle threat in his tone of voice.

His words made the blonde female Forest Elf flinch a little. Then she glanced at Aurdis before walking forward.

"(Forgive her behavior, princess. She doesn't know anything,)" the brown-haired male Forest Elf said apologetically.

Aurdis smiled faintly. "(Don't worry. I understand.)"

"(Come follow us. We'll take you to meet the King and Queen.)"

After that, they led Aurdis to walk deeper into the forest.

In contrast to Wyldwood, the atmosphere in this forest felt much calmer and more peaceful.

The sound of birds singing together forms a musical melody that accompanies their steps.

This forest is also still wet from the heavy rain that flushed a few hours ago.

"(You came here alone, princess Aurdis?)" the brown-haired male Forest Elf asked.

"(Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. Pardon my impoliteness. My name is Dolthon. And that youngster is Thillion.)"

Aurdis turned to Forest with long dark hair beside her.

His face still looks innocent and pale. He smiled awkwardly when he found Aurdis staring at him.

Aurdis smiled at both of them. "(Nice to meet you, Dolthon and Trillion.)"

They both nod.

"(I did come alone. There is a problem that requires me to come alone,)" Aurdis said.

"(That matter is what I wish to discuss with the King and Queen.)"

Dolthon and Thillion immediately exchanged glances.

But they didn't say anything because they knew they had no right to ask any further questions.

Any problem that requires a princess to come alone, to travel great distances without escort, is definitely not a small matter.

She also wanted to go directly to their King and Queen. Dolthon immediately assumed that something was going on in the palace.

For Dolthon, it was not something that came as a surprise.

He already knew that someday there would be trouble created there.

Dolthon knows that the King of the Elves in the palace is isolating himself because of the grief of the Queen's death.

He neglected all his obligations as King. Then chose to be alone as a miserable creature in that secluded place.

Dolthon harbored a lot of grumbling and displeasure at the King of Elf in the palace. But of course, he wouldn't say that in front of Aurdis directly.

"(Did you see any creature.. uhh... the one that looks like the Dragon earlier?)" Thillion the young Forest Elf asked Aurdis.

Aurdis immediately turned his head towards him.

"(W-What are you talking about?)" Aurdis asked. She tried to keep her face from looking too shocked.

"(Ah, so you didn't see it either, huh.)" Thillion looked disappointed.

Aurdis forgot to keep their distance from Dawnwood when Erend had put her down.

With a body of that size, it was very likely that someone would see him.

The overjoyed Aurdis didn't think that far. And this is the result of her carelessness.

"(He does fantasize too much, princess. I'm sorry if that bothers you,)" Dolthon said with a faint smile.

"(A-ah, it's fine,)" Aurdis replied.

Fortunately, no one else saw Erend's appearance other than the young Forest Elf.

The other two Forest Elves didn't seem to notice either. Aurdis could heave a sigh of relief secretly.

These Forest Elves wear different clothes from the Elves in the palace.

If in the palace they wore plain white clothes, the Forest Elves wore varied clothes that seemed to allow them to unite with the forest.

Dolthon, Thillion, and the female Forest Elf's clothes that had disappeared into the front were almost the same.

Their trouser and shirts are brown and dark green.

They also wear dark robes that change color like chameleons to disguise their presence among the leaves, trees, and soil in the forest.

There was a bow on their back.

The bow just looks like a normal wooden bow. But the absence of arrows around their bodies indicated something.

The bow can spawn arrows when they pull the strings.

Aurdis still remembered many things about the Forest Elf. Even though she had only met them once when she was a child.

Dolthon stepped ahead of Aurdis and opened a very dense bush in front of them.

"(Please come in, princess,)" Dolthon said.

Aurdis nodded and stepped into the bush opened by Dolthon.

When she went inside, Aurdis was finally able to see a small part of the Forest Elf kingdom's territory.

Aurdis eyes opened wide looking around. Her memories of the Forest Elf kingdom from the past were blurry.

But now Aurdis can finally refresh that memory.

This place had a beauty that Aurdis had never seen before.

Giant trees whose height Aurdis couldn't estimate seems standing randomly side by side.

On the trunks of the giant trees, there are tree houses attached as if the tree houses were part of the tree itself.

The golden light that seemed warm adorned every house.

But before Aurdis had time to admire the whole sight before her eyes, an arm was already wrapped around her neck.

At first, Aurdis was taken aback. But she smelled a distinct smell that she have smelled before.

"Aurdis! I miss you!" It was the Queen of the Forest Elves.
