Wrong, but reply to the hero's story

"There's no other place where we can get to the current situation on floors 19-24 faster than there."

In response to Kaiar's suggestion, Ryu, Lefiya, and Elfie nodded.

As the largest force on the eighteenth floor of the dungeon, although the adventurers in Rivera Town are not very powerful, they have an extensive intelligence network and considerable connections, so almost no clan would offend them.

For someone as strong as Ai Si, it is already amazing that she can travel from the surface to the 20th floor and back in one day if she is traveling at full speed. Ordinary adventurers who want to go to the middle level must use the town of Rivera as a resting place.

Therefore, almost all adventurers who want to go below the middle level will choose the town of Rivera as a transit station, which leads to a large amount of fresh information here!

According to the plan, Kaiar and his companions headed for the town of Rivera, but halfway through the journey, Elfy, the human girl with the lowest presence in the team, suddenly stopped the team.

The girl gave a smile that made both Lefiya and Ryuu feel uneasy, and then she suggested in a light tone:

"Let's split up in the town later. This way we can gather intelligence faster~"

"With Kaiar and Miss Liu, two high-level fighters, each leading one, I think Lefiya should be happy to get along well with Miss Liu, who is of the same race and not much older than her."

Elfie, who had been watching with eager eyes, finally showed her fangs. Lefiya looked at her best friend who had stabbed her in the back in disbelief.

Who wants to team up with this green-haired, cold-faced elf?!

If it was Miss Ai Si, she would have let it go, but...

If Kaiar and Liu were not present, Lefiya swore that she would let Elfie know what it means that friends should not be bullied!

Gritting her teeth, Lefiya looked at Ryu expectantly.

Ke Liu thought about it for a moment and felt that what Elfie said made sense.

The blue pupils, as beautiful as a tranquil lake, reflected Kaiar's figure, but such beauty also made Kaiar feel a little chilly.

After warning Kaiar, Liu nodded to indicate that she agreed to Elfie's proposal.

After the discussion, everyone happened to arrive at the wooden archway of Rivera Town.

Liu grabbed Lefiya, who looked like she had lost all hope in life, and left Kaiar and Elfie with a cool and handsome back view.

After the two elves left, the human girl Elfy did not attack Kaiar immediately, but instead stood with her hands behind her back, staring at him with a sweet smile.

"Kaiyar~ Why are you so afraid of that elf lady? Isn't Miss Liu a good person who is easy to talk to?"

Elfie's question left Kaiar at a loss for words.

Could he say that he was imprisoned by Liu in the beginning?

Or could it be said that Liu had given him a lot of loving beatings in order to train him?

How could he talk about this tragic memory that brought him PTSD sequelae?!

Noticing Kaiar's sobbing, Elfie did not continue to ask, but said in a low voice:

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

"You've already signed a contract, yet you're still lecherously going out and messing around with other women?"

“I get angry too!”

The human girl approached step by step until Kaiar was leaning against the wall of the town of Rivera, and then he realized something.

Forget about Liu, how come even Elfie can control him now!

Leaning against the city wall of Rivera Town, Kaiyal accidentally caught a glimpse of the hint of sarcasm and disdain at the corner of Elfy's mouth. He realized that he might have insulted the name Kaiyal!

You think you're a herbivore, right?

After taking a deep look at the girl's thin lips, Kaiyal held her tightly with his hands like a pair of pliers in front of Elfy's astonished eyes. The girl's slender and fragile body collided with the wall of Rivera town.

"Hey..."

With a whimper of reproach, just as Elfie was about to say something, an aggressive breath blocked her lips.

Not buddy...

Didn’t you say you like strong girls?

Knowing that she seemed to have wronged Kaiar, Elfie immediately gave up. Pretending to be strong really made her uncomfortable.

Giving up resistance, the girl calmly cooperated with Kaiar's willful actions...

After five minutes.

"Sorry, Elfie, I'm a little unskilled for this first time."

The girl wiped the crystal from the corner of her mouth, thought of the suffocating feeling just now, and gave Kaiar a speechless eye roll.

But considering that it was the first time, she forgave the other party!

After smoothing out the wrinkles on the small cape on her chest, Elfie regained her previous lively and cute appearance.

Looking at Elfie like this, Kaiyal had to bury the grievances deep in his heart.

Can he say that apart from his forceful request at the beginning, it was Elfie who had been exerting force bravely afterwards?

He had originally wanted Elfie to be gentler, but the girl was like a long-awaited sweet dew, pressing Kaiyal so hard that he could hardly breathe. In the end, he finally let go and then blamed Kaiyal for everything...

Knowing that he couldn't reason with the other party, Kaiyal shook his head helplessly and passed over the matter.

"Okay, let's go."

"We can't leave all the work to Ms. Liu and Lefiya."

Listening to the human girl's words, Kaiar really wanted to complain, wasn't that what Elfy thought at the beginning?

But he didn't say this in the end. He and Alfie walked into the town of Rivera where they had committed the crime last time as if nothing had happened.

------------

Boxes of goods were carried by adventurers from the town gate to the depths of the town. Around the stalls that stretched from the town gate to the depths of the town, countless shops had already set up various small decorative items purchased from the surface of Orario.

Unlike the previous feeling of Rivera Town, which was full of unscrupulous merchants and fraud, the whole town was filled with a sense of celebrating the festival with lights and decorations.

Not to mention Kaiar, even Elfie had never seen this scene before.

The two randomly found a stall and saw that the owner had surrounded their simple floor with beautiful and exquisite small magic stone lamps. Kaiyal suppressed his desire to complain. Before he could ask, the owner took the initiative to explain:

"Alas, there's nothing we can do. We can't go to the surface to celebrate the "God Moon Festival". We can only celebrate it in the town of Rivera..."

Chapter 91: Anti-Elf Noble Phantasm: Lefiya!

Kaiar didn't expect that the adventurers in Orario were so ceremonial.

He knew that because the adventurers from the town of Rivera had piled up a large amount of goods here, in order to prevent anyone from stealing, there had to be someone guarding here all the time.

As a result, the people stationed in the town were unable to return to the surface to celebrate the festival, but they did not expect that the other party would hold a small "God Moon Festival" directly underground. It was elegant, too elegant!

It was so reasonable that Kaiar couldn't even complain!

After all, adventurers and profiteers are human too, aren't they? Adventure and speculation are mostly just about making a living, while everyday fun street events and various festivals are what add color to their lives!

"These are the people who strive to make a living! They're the same in every world."

Glancing at Kaiyal who was sighing like an old uncle, Elfy felt that Kaiyal must have a past that she didn't know about, but if Kaiyal didn't want to tell her, she wouldn't take the initiative to ask.

After leaving the stall, Kaiar and Elfy continued to walk around Rivera Town, where a small "God Moon Festival" was being held. Just as the two were about to go to the intelligence station to start their investigation, Miss Liu slowly approached, holding Lefiya's shoulders as if escorting a prisoner.

It was not until she saw Kaiar and Elfy that Lefiya's lifeless eyes lit up again.

God knows what she just encountered with this workaholic green-haired elf!

Investigate intelligence, find the intelligence dealer, and defeat the evil adventurer who wants to tease their elf duo. The whole process is completed smoothly in one go.

A real working machine!

Lefiya was even horrified to find that Miss Liu didn't even notice anything unusual about the town of Rivera. This bright festive atmosphere seemed incompatible with Liu.

The elf is a little suspicious. Could it be that Miss Liu is a wanted criminal on the run?

The festival is approaching but there is no sense of leisure at all. Is this something an ordinary adventurer can do?

Not knowing what Lefiya was thinking, Liu was just a little worried when he saw Kaiar and Elfy being alone together.

Even though Kaiar's fighting power has improved now, Liu always feels that he still needs to rely on her younger brother!

As for Elfy, the scent of a newbie was even stronger than Kaiar's. Liu would not allow such a duo to roam freely in Rivera Town. Obviously, the green-haired elf did not know that it was Elfy, a harmless guy, who had worked with Kaiar to steal dozens of magic swords from Freya's family.

"The intelligence has been collected almost completely."

"According to reliable information, there have been no 'unusual incidents' or frequent 'monster feasts' within the Great Tree Maze recently, making it safe for exploration."

"At the same time, I collected the latest map of the 24th floor."

"It contains some rare edible plants, as well as the approximate location of valuable medicinal herbs used to make panaceas."

"If that's all right, let's go!"

Liu listed the investigation results clearly and in detail.

But just as Liu finished her report and prepared to set off with her sword, she found that the two people and the elf were all looking at her strangely.

When Kaiyal saw Miss Liu being so stern, even a worker like him who worked 996 in his previous life wanted to cry. However, when he thought of Miss Liu's experience, Kaiyal felt a little heavy-hearted.

Although Miss Liu seems to be more energetic when she is with him now, Kaiyal knows that she has not yet gotten out of the haze.

Perhaps it was kindness, or perhaps it was a sense of responsibility, these two things made Ms. Liu seem normal in front of him, but...

Kaiyal stepped forward and patted the stunned Liu, motioning Miss Liu to look around.

Most of the simple wooden houses in Rivera Town have been decorated with handicrafts at some point.

The eaves were covered with red unknown debris, and most of the simple stalls under the eaves were also covered with magic stone lamps to form an elegant pattern.

The profiteer who had been seizing every opportunity to sell things was no longer so snobbish at this moment. Instead, he put down his work and chatted happily.

A cheerful joy was spreading throughout the town, but Liu was completely unaware of it.

Realizing that something was wrong, Lefiya and Elfie, who didn't know Liu well, both chose to keep their mouths shut at this moment.

"The guilt of the past, Mia's mother's mission, the kindness of agreeing to team up with me, and the guilt buried deep in your heart...let it all go, Miss Liu."

"Now, how about putting down everything and taking a leisurely stroll around the town of Rivera?"

After Kaiar finished speaking, Liu's eyes were full of struggle.

How could she... deserve to enjoy the celebration?

She is no longer living for herself, so...

Seeing that Miss Liu was about to perform another little drama in her heart, Kaiyal was about to say something when he found that Lefiya poked Liu in fear.

"Just consider it as compensation for dragging me around like a sack just now. Slow down a bit!"

Wow, Kaiyal couldn't help but sigh that Lefiya's move hit Miss Liu's heart.

You know, now Liu basically won't act for himself... She's really worthy of being Lefiya!

Kaiyal decided to retract his prejudice against the Lily Fairy, as the elf was indeed quite capable.

Whether it's a goblin of mourning or a useless elf, Lefiya really has a way to deal with them!

silence...

As if remembering what he had just said to his colleague, Liu immediately dragged Lefiya to the intelligence station as soon as he entered Rivera Town, not noticing that Rivera Town along the way was preparing for the "God Moon Festival".

She doesn't care about such festivals, but that can't stop Lefiya's enthusiasm and curiosity about the festival!

Thinking about how she had just dragged Lefiya around and ignored her desire to stroll around Rivera Town, Liu blushed a little.

Um...I made a fool of myself again.

Lady Astraea and everyone...

"Then stop."

"Take a stroll through Rivera Town, where the underground "God Moon Festival" is being prepared."

With that, Liu rode ahead, heading towards a stall not far from here. Kaiyal followed closely behind. Lefiya and Elfie, who remained where they were, exchanged a glance and nodded, understanding each other's intentions.

Beneath the strong and cold appearance...is an extremely fragile, pitiful elf.

Let's call for a temporary ceasefire!

------------

Heading east from the small town of Riviera in the west...

The vast green field in the center of the floor echoes the clear sky underground, and the magnificent flatness is enough to shock people.
