Zongman, the journey begins from the wrong place

Looking at the scarf in his hand, Liu's eyes revealed an intense struggle.

No!

Never be tempted again!

Even if I jump off the city wall, I will never...

For the last time! I swear to the Great Sacred Tree! This is absolutely the last time!

Finally, the elf couldn't bear it any longer, closed his eyes to deceive himself, covered his face with the scarf, and took a deep breath.

However, even if Liu made up his mind, he couldn't do it - the fragrance on the scarf was very faint, to the point where he couldn't even smell a trace of it.

It was precisely because of this that Liu had been suffering from insomnia over the past few days, and had recalled the figure of the silver-haired boy countless times in his mind.

However, Liu was very clear that his recent insomnia, anxiety, and restlessness were not due to the withdrawal reaction after becoming addicted to this fragrance.

On the contrary, the calm and comfortable state of the past few days was an abnormality that occurred under the soothing effect of this fragrance.

Now it seems that it was too early for me to be happy because I thought I had finally gotten rid of the status of a useless elf and laughed at the other members for not being able to sleep after watching a young man's adventure!

No!

You must absolutely forget about that human!

With a hint of resentment that 'I wasn't even given the last chance', Ryu crushed the protective scarf woven with precious materials and rushed into the dungeon with a knife!

The human's actions at that time definitely showed that he had touched one or even multiple elves before!

Otherwise, how could such a conditioned reflex be formed? !

Therefore, no matter how heroic or charming he is when fighting or adventuring, he is definitely not her ideal partner!

Using the heat that surged through his body during the fierce battle as a furnace, Ryu hammered this belief into his heart as he swung his sword to slash monsters again and again...

When she came to her senses, she found that she had arrived at the seventeenth floor without knowing when.

The Wall of Sighs reflected a faint glow, illuminating the pale hall that had been restored to its original state, with no trace of the fierce battle that had once taken place.

"Let's take a shower"—feeling the sweat and dust all over her body, the exhausted Ryu couldn't help but feel this desire welling up in her heart.

After entering the eighteenth floor, Liu headed straight towards a place in the eastern forest.

But when they were about to reach their destination after passing through the dense forest, Liu heard the sound of flowing water.

this is?

Liu, whose consciousness was already slowing down, raised his head, his gaze passed through the leaves, and then the whole elf stood still.

Because a figure had appeared in the clear pond where he and his clan members often came to wash their bodies.

The silver hair that matched the brilliance of the sky crystal stole her consciousness.

60 Liu: It’s all the world’s fault!

Peeping is wrong in itself, and peeping at the opposite sex bathing is even more wrong. And as an elf, doing this is a mistake that deserves to be struck by lightning, so you must leave!

——That’s what Liu originally thought in her heart, but her body didn’t obey her, and her eyes couldn’t move away from this scene.

The tiny rays of light cast by the countless blue crystals in the dome dyed the silent forest a pale blue.

In the clear pond surrounded by trees and mist, the water is so clear that you can see countless crystals at the bottom of the pool, reflecting the glow and forming a sea of ​​fragmented silver light.

Such beautiful scenery made Liu recall his hometown, the endless forest swaying in the moonlight and evening breeze, and the vast holy lake reflecting the moon in the sky.

No, it's not just the scenery, more importantly, the figure in the lake -

The soft silver hair was wet with water, fitting the muscle curve of the slender neck, letting the water droplets flow down the fair skin with blue veins visible.

The muscles from the neck to the shoulders, as well as the waist and abdomen, are not thick at all.

But just as the word "youth" explains, you can feel the vitality of growth and development, but it is not too rough or swollen.

It is not only elastic and soft, but also has a youthful and tender feel.

With the excellent eyesight of a second-level adventurer and an elf, Liu treated the thirty-meter distance as nothing and took in the entire scene.

It was as if a gentle breeze ruffled the surface of the lake and the morning glow broke through the clouds. Suddenly, a crack appeared in the elf's heart, which was filled with fatigue and anxiety, and ripples appeared gently.

So, she subconsciously let down her guard and reacted instinctively when she was extremely thirsty and tired.

Just purse your lips, and—

"gollum"

The faint swallowing sound echoed in the forest, but it was not as loud as the roar of the flying monster coming from the distance.

but--

'Done! '

Deep down in her heart, it was as if a young elf was holding a wooden sword, beating Liu violently at the moment, hating her for her loss of composure and incompetence.

However, before Liu could be overwhelmed by the shame, an even stronger sense of crisis came over him!

"who!"

Hearing the unusual noise that he was sure was not natural, Noah subconsciously threw out the weapon he had been holding in his hand for warning before looking at the source of the sound.

It was a sharp corner with keratinous texture but a dark grey metallic color.

Although it was unforged, under the influence of Noah's wrist strength, it could still easily emit a shriek like the wailing of an evil spirit in mid-air.

Before the long-cultivated fighting instinct took effect, the deeper and more primitive biological instinct in Liu's heart was issuing a warning like a loud bell.

But, it cannot be avoided!

It was like encountering a powerful monster from the depths, a roar that could render even low-level adventurers powerless. Ryu's entire body felt as if even the blood in his body had frozen, and he could only watch helplessly as the attack came upon him!

Just when Liu seemed to be seeing the kaleidoscope of his past life and the branches and leaves of the sacred tree waving at him, a silver light suddenly flashed in his frozen vision!

It was almost exactly the same as the scene on the seventeenth floor seven days ago. The silver figure surpassed his own attack and arrived beside Liu one step ahead.

While chopping the attack with his hand knife, Noah also embraced the blond elf in his arms and threw him to the ground.

The flying debris did not stop, but scattered like countless cannonballs.

"Boom boom boom—"

It was like a small meteor shower, smoke and dust exploded and flew, and the vibration spread across the vast plains of the eighteenth floor.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the tree trunks, rocks and ground within a radius of more than ten meters were riddled with holes like honeycombs.

“It’s so dangerous!”

Looking at the devastation around him, Noah sighed unconsciously, as if the attack was not launched by him.

After confirming that the danger was over, Noah lowered his head and looked at the blonde elf who was protected in his arms, and his eyes met those of a similar color to his own.

"Are you OK?"

—I’m very busy! And it’s a huge thing!!

From the movement of Noah's thin lips, Ryu could tell what he wanted to say.

The reason why she had to use lip reading was because she could no longer hear anything as her ears were filled with sharp and high-pitched sounds.

Not only that, Liu felt that his brain was almost completely cooked, just like the stew that Alisha had eaten this morning!

As for the reason, isn’t it right in front of us?

Whether it was the boy's clear and bright blue eyes, the graceful collarbone and prominent Adam's apple that made him unable to look away, or the hot breath that hit his face, all made Liu want to faint on the spot.

But just like last time, the fresh, watery fragrance coming from Noah made Liu unable to faint completely no matter how much shame crushed and tortured his consciousness.

This also allowed Liu to more clearly feel the slight sound emitted from Noah's chest when he breathed, as well as the temperature coming from the touching skin.

These touches were like red-hot irons, imprinted on Liu's skin, and then turned into electric currents that surged throughout his body.

I can’t forget it, I will never forget this feeling in my entire life!

The hazy consciousness made Liu listen to his body's reactions more clearly. The strange feeling that he had finally made up his mind to erase was probably deeply imprinted in his body and could never be erased.

"Hey! What's wrong with you? Are you okay?!"

Seeing the blonde elf staring at him blankly, not only were her sky-blue pupils covered with a layer of haze, but even the pair of pointed ears that should have stood up high were drooping limply, Noah was suddenly startled and quickly slapped her face.

How come, the elf turned into a goblin?

Although Liu wanted to faint, she not only couldn't faint, but she woke up quickly.

Looking at Noah lying on her, her eyes were complicated, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she could only sigh helplessly.

"Mr. Sifel, thank you for saving me. I'm fine. Could you please get up from me?"

In the lower corner of Liu's vision, he could see the angular muscles on Noah's chest, and further down...

No, I dare not go any further.

When his vision vaguely caught sight of his abdominal muscles, Liu closed his eyes under the urge of a strong sense of crisis.

If I look down any further, my eyes and blood vessels will probably explode!

No, it should be said that she will still explode after leaving this person.

Liu knew very well that his calmness at the moment was just an illusion.

The state of the useless elf is actually stored, waiting for the inhibitor to disappear, and then it will burst out with a devastating sound!

Should I find someone to prepare in advance and confuse me when I go crazy?

In the language of Kaguya's country, he's called an kaishakunin?

Although Noah was also very curious about why the elves from the neighboring family were listless for a while and then suddenly returned to normal, the cold feeling he felt when the wind blew on his body still made him withdraw his attention.

Although as a battle-hardened soldier, Noah no longer cared about this privacy, but the scene of him lying naked on the little girl was still a bit too shabby.

Looks like a criminal!

So he got up quickly, flashed back into the jungle, and reappeared fully dressed.

Liu covered his face with his scarf and stared at the crystal on the ground in a daze. He didn't even look up when he heard Noah approaching.

"Mr. Sifel, may I ask why you are here?"

"Well, I finished training early today. It was still early, so I went to the 18th floor to take a look. Then I saw a pool over here, so I took a shower. Then..."

Who can blame it?

Although the girl's mood made Liu want to put all the blame on the other party, her remaining dignity as an elf made her understand that Noah was not to blame for this matter.

She was bathing peacefully here, and I peeped at her and saw her naked. Is there anything wrong with that?

In such a big forest, Noah actually found the place where Astralia's family usually washes and grooms in one go!

If we have to say who is at fault, maybe it is the world’s fault!!

61 I will be responsible for you!

There's a blonde elf here who seems to be in a state of depression. How about we take her...

Bathed in the glow from the dome, Noah looked at the elves who had fallen into silence, and couldn't help but gently stroke the hilt of the sword to calm his irritability.

Why? Why is this happening?
