Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Staring at the ceiling, Rollin soon fell asleep.
At this moment, a green light flashed across the Empire’s sky. Two figures streaked across the sky and arrived directly in front of Rollin’s small house.
Knock, knock, knock!
A series of knocks sounded on the door.
Rollin had just closed his eyes not long ago. He thought that he was dreaming.
But the knocks did not stop.
Rollin quickly put on his clothes and opened the door. Outside, the Third Elder brought a beautiful woman wearing a veil to his house.
Under the introduction of the Third Elder, Rollin got to know this beautiful and mature woman.
‘Elven Empress Sofia Pauline.’
After knowing her identity, Rollin immediately wanted to kneel down on one knee, but he was quickly helped up by her.
A melodious voice sounded. “You must be Michelle’s savior!”
“There’s no need for that. Let’s talk inside!”
After entering the house, Rollin immediately prepared a clean chair for her.
After sitting down, the Elven Empress looked at Rollin strangely, as if she was a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
This made him feel very comfortable and uneasy.
Soon, the Elven Empress began to thank Rollin personally. “Thank you very much for finding and saving my daughter. I sincerely pray for you here!”
After chanting a spell, some strange changes occurred in Rollin’s body.
[Congratulations, host, you have received the Elven Empress’s blessing. You have received the Blessing of the Power of Nature!]
This was not the end. The Elven Empress immediately handed him something that looked like a small bell.
“This is the symbol of the Elven family’s friendship!”
“If you have the opportunity to come to the Elven Land, just take this thing out. The elves who there will warmly welcome you!”
After taking the bell from her hand and touching his finger, the Elven Empress felt as if she was electrocuted.
She immediately felt the darkness origin from Rollin’s body.
“You!” She wanted to say something, but she did not say it out loud.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Rollin immediately asked, “Your Majesty! Are you alright?”
The Elven Empress calmed down and returned to normal. She immediately waved her hand and said, “I’m fine, I’m fine. It’s probably because I’ve been too busy recently, so I’m not in good spirits!”
Upon hearing this, Rollin knew that the other party was just giving him a perfunctory reply. However, he did not have the right to say anything to the other party now.
“If you have the opportunity in the future, you must come to the Elven Land as a guest. It’s already very late today, so I won’t disturb you anymore!”
After saying goodbye, the Elven Empress arrived at the Third Elder’s residence and left.
Sending her off, Rollin looked left and right, wondering what had happened.
In the end, he vaguely knew something! Could it be that his identity as the Ruler of the Abyss had been exposed!?
But thinking about it, it should be impossible. After all, he only had an identity now, and he had yet to do anything.
With this doubt in mind, Rollin lay on the bed and fell asleep very quickly…
On the other side, the Elven Empress had already returned to the skyship by the sea with the Third Elder.
She immediately summoned all five Elders of the elven team to the meeting room on the ship. Everyone sat there nervously, waiting for the Elven Empress to speak.
After a few minutes of silence.
“I encountered a strange thing today!”
“I felt the resurrection of the Ruler of the Abyss from a little boy!”
As soon as these words were said, the five Elders immediately stood up in shock.
As the Third Elder had been following behind the Empress, he asked doubtfully, “Are you talking about Rollin?”
“That’s impossible!”
The Elven Empress was not surprised to see the Third Elder’s expression, because in her eyes, Rollin was also a very kind and upright child. It was impossible for him to be the Ruler of the Abyss…
Hence, she voiced her guess.
“I only sensed it from him. I’m not sure if he’s the Ruler of the Abyss!”
“It’s very likely that there’s something on him that can resurrect the Ruler of the Abyss!”
“In order to prevent him from triggering it, I’ve decided to leave the Third Elder behind to observe his every move!”
After hearing this, the Third Elder immediately accepted the order. After all, this was not a joke.
Once the Ruler of the Abyss was resurrected, the entire continent would once again fall into darkness. Even if there was even the slightest possibility, the Third Elder had to do his best.
“For tomorrow’s meeting, I will propose to the Emperor of Melville that they allow us to build a permanent residence in the Empire.”
“This way, it will be convenient for the Third Elder to contact the Elven Forest!”
“Let’s call it a day for today’s meeting!”
After the Elven Empress left, the five Elders in the meeting hall began to exchange information.
Meanwhile, the culprit was sleeping soundly in the room, unaware that the entire continent was in turmoil because of him.
Early the next morning, Rollin woke up.
He hung the token given by the Elven Empress on his neck and stood in front of the mirror to take a look. He found it quite beautiful.
Then, he went to the forging workshop and got busy.
During lunch, Rollin went straight to the restaurant. The small restaurant was very lively. Rollin immediately found an empty seat and sat down.
He sat there quietly and listened to the people inside tell him about the recent events.
“Have you heard? This morning, the Elven Empress proposed to the King to build an Elven Embassy in this neighborhood!”
“I’ve heard, I’ve heard. In the future, I’ll be able to see handsome elven men in the Elven Embassy!”
Upon hearing this, everyone in the restaurant turned their heads and focused their gazes on this very flirtatious-looking man.
Seeing so many people staring at him, he was a little embarrassed as he pinched his orchid finger and said, “Annoying!”
Seeing this scene, Rollin almost laughed out loud. Sure enough, there were all kinds of people in the world.
After lunch, he saw a group of elves moving goods on the street.
It was nothing at first, but a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
“Third Elder?”
Seeing Rollin, the Third Elder immediately walked over and greeted him, “Yo! Rollin, we meet again!”
Rollin hurriedly walked over to inquire about matters related to Michelle.
“Our little princess has been completely infatuated with you!”
“When she left, she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to let you go, so she didn’t follow you when the Empress came to see you that day.”
Upon hearing this, Rollin only nodded slightly at the Third Elder.
“I’ll write to her after I’m done with my work!”
The Third Elder nodded in satisfaction.
Regardless of whether Rollin was the Ruler of the Abyss or not, he was a good kid who understood the world.
