Alien world

Chapter 1110 32. Irilanze attacks Annan at night
"Is the World Tree small?"

Ariana stopped.

Can an elf tolerate others saying bad things about it... well, it can't tolerate it. And the World Tree is a forbidden place for all elves, they can't tolerate even the slightest slander.

"Why didn't I see it on the way here?"

Aliana threw out a word and continued forward.

"The World Tree is hidden."

"Will I have a chance to see it?"

"perhaps."

"You know, the way you answer is very similar to a magic mirror..."

Following Ariana, we passed a group of tree houses and came to an open space with a large number of targets with arrows.

"You can call me Instructor Aliana."

Aliana turned back to Annan with a cold attitude: "To be honest, I don't like you. This is not prejudice against you, but prejudice against humanity. You cheat, you kill, and you destroy."

"But I have seen the most..." Annan closed his mouth. This scene had already happened once to Kailandra. He changed his mouth and said, "The noblest ratman has also seen the lowest human. I am a future ally of the Elven King's Court. What can't I prove?"

"It's just as the rumors said." Aliana showed a hint of contempt: "And you're not even an ally."

"You're going to be training here for a week."

Annan doesn’t think training is a bad thing... just like Cinderella has to learn some court etiquette when meeting the prince?
"Okay, then can I walk around the royal court when I'm free?"

"No."

"I am a guest, not a prisoner."

"But you are not just any guest, you are a guest who will become an ally."

So you know...

Annan grumbled to himself as he watched Ariana walk into the training hut and toss him a bow and arrow.

"Let's see what you can do first."

"Do I really need to practice this?" Annan began to untie his mage robe. When Aliana frowned, he suddenly opened his chest and showed a dazzling array of amulets: "I have three epic and two legendary amulets protecting me. Who can hurt me?"

"At least there should be time to activate it."

Annan sensed something: "Will I get hurt at the celebration?"

"Injured? You're too optimistic."

What's going on? No one said that participating in the Elf King's Court Celebration would be life-threatening...

"Pull it open and aim at the nearest target."

Annan looked at the target about ten meters away, nocked the arrow confidently, and drew the bow... drew the bow... drew the bow——

Annan's face gradually turned red, but the bowstring did not move at all.

"Huh... I can't pull it open." Annan said frustratedly.

Aliana silently looked at Annan who was panting, then turned and walked into the tree house not far away. Not long after, she came over with another emerald green wooden bow.

The bow is wrapped with vines and has a leaf on the top. It looks like a fine work of art and feels almost weightless in the hand.

Annan instantly realized that this was a treasure, and confidently put an arrow on the bow and drew his bow...

The stretched bowstring opened at an almost invisible angle. As Annan loosened his grip, the arrow swayed in an arc and landed five or six meters away.

"It and I have a bad compatibility. Are there any other magic bows?" Annan shook his head and gave it back to Ariana.

"Magic bow? This is a toy for newborn elves."

Annan paused for a moment as he rubbed his arm which seemed to be stretched. “To be honest, as a warlock, why should I learn archery?”

"Because you are the future ally of the royal court."

"You are still the future allies of Liberty City. I didn't ask you to learn acting first."

Aliana was indifferent. Well, who let the Elven Court dominate this alliance... But facing Annan who couldn't even pull a child's bow, Aliana temporarily gave up teaching archery and turned to teaching benefits.

Elves do not have the red tape of court etiquette, but they do have to pay attention to some matters and taboos.

For example, don't talk about dark elves in front of any elves - I wonder if they know that Annan once had a dark elf guard.

Also, do not approach the World Tree without the guidance of an elder, and do not approach the several forbidden areas in the Aldo Forest...

Annan was confused about the Elven King's attitude towards him. If they liked him, there would be no reason for them to send Aliana to teach him. If they disliked him, they would not have told him so many secrets of the King's Court.

"Do you hate me?" Annan interrupted Ariana.

"It does not matter."

"This is very important." Annan said seriously: "Your attitude will determine how I think the Elf King's Court will treat me."

Ariana remained silent for a while, then chose to reveal some truth: "I hate humans. I don't hate you, I just don't like you."

Annan's reputation as a womanizer had long been spread in the Elven King's Court. Most of the information collected by the Elven King's Court about him was related to women... female deputy city lord, female assistant, female friends, even dwarves were women.

If one day Annan forgets how many women he knows, he will remember them by looking through the information in the royal court.

"This is slander! I have never had any intimate relationship with any woman."

Ariana said nothing because the truth didn't matter.

After talking for dozens of minutes, she got up and left temporarily. Not long after, she came back with a ripe crimson-purple fruit in her hand.

"Eat it."

"what is this?"

"Slowly increase your strength and affinity for magic."

As expected of an elf, it even has such good stuff.

Annan wiped it with his sleeve, opened his mouth and bit through the peel. The sweet juice instantly filled his mouth and slid down his throat.

Before Annan could react, only a layer of fruit peel was left in his hand.

Annan threw the peel into his mouth without wasting it, and looked at Aliana with bright black eyes: "I can't taste it, is there any more?"

“You can only eat once every three days.”

"Then I can eat once today, once in three days, and once again on the last day of training?" Annan had a good plan.

Aliana did not reject Annan's idea and said, "The last day of training should allow you to stretch the 'Children's Bow'."

She bit down the accent on the children's bow.

Ariana didn't like him, and Annan was too lazy to act like a gentleman. After learning from Ariana for a few hours and asking a lot of questions, the dreamlike light spots in the forest disappeared, replaced by fluorescent plants in full bloom.

Annan looked at the tree house in the distance where laughter and chatter were coming from: "Where should I stay tonight?"

"right here."

Annan looked around the training hut: there was nothing here except a bed woven with vines and a bow and arrow hanging on the wall.

"Is this a hospitality rule decided by you or the Council of Elders?"

Annan didn't care about the treatment, but he suspected that the royal court was deliberately embarrassing him.

"Please forgive me. Something happened in the royal court before. You are safest here."

"All right……"

Annan didn't force it, since he hadn't slept for a long time anyway.

After Aliana left, Annan sat on the rattan bed and began his day of meditation.

Perhaps because of the fruit he had eaten, Annan's magic vortex was unusually active. As his consciousness gradually became immersed, faint footsteps suddenly sounded.

Annan opened his eyes reluctantly.

"You guys even at night...Irelanze!?"
