Alien world

Chapter 1117 39. Alliance is not as important as business
The magic lights in the tree house emit a warm glow.

Annan, who had just crawled back, turned around and looked at the Skeleton King who had landed outside and made a noise: "Why are you here?"

"A lot of people were looking at you just now." The Skeleton King turned around and swept the gazes from all directions, asking them to look away. "You helped the messengers vent their anger."

"So I'm considered familiar to them?" This was a pleasant surprise.

"Your reputation is already known to everyone."

"But I've been here for two days and have been walking around outside, but no one has come to visit me." Annan seemed to be complaining, but his tone didn't sound particularly concerned.

There are still four days left before the opening ceremony. We can talk about business after that.

After talking with the Skeleton King for a while, Annan began to meditate after it left.

The next morning, Ariana appeared outside the door when Annan did not blow the leaves.

The tree house was very simple, and there were not even any extra chairs, so Annan moved a chair for her.

"Your people didn't give you any trouble, did they?"

“They asked me to persuade you to stop,” Ariana said.

"You know, this is impossible." Annan shook her head, unexpectedly firm, and planned what she was going to say: "I have to make my own voice heard."

"why?"

Annan was about to explain, but suddenly changed his mind and took out the Eternal Philosopher's Stone to activate it: "You will know the answer after reading it."

Aliana had never seen magic images. And no matter who it was, as long as he was not averse to new things, the feeling of seeing magic images for the first time would definitely be shocking and novel.

She sat in the chair like this for two hours.

Judging from Ariana's reaction, she doesn't seem as cold-hearted as she appears.

Annan used a line from "The Redemption of Betar": "Some birds are not destined to be caged, because every feather of theirs shines with the glory of freedom."

"As an elf, you should be able to understand this sentence better."

"Well, I won't advise you anymore."

Annan nodded with relief: "But don't do anything stupid. I don't have many friends in the Elf King's Court. If I make a mistake, the Elders Council can't do anything to me, but you can't."

"friend……"

Aliana chewed on this unfamiliar word in Elvish.

Feeling that she was showing signs of leaning towards him, Annan took advantage of the situation and showed her "When Freedom Knocks on the Door" and "Let the Magic Fly".

When the final cast list came out, it was already evening.

"Go back, we don't need your help today." Annan said.

"I can help you."

Aliana said as she gradually took on the shape of Annan.

"No, I'm afraid Irelanze might misunderstand..."

Ariana almost ran into Irelanth. Not long after she left, Irelanth appeared with a basket.

"Why do you always appear at night?" Annan couldn't help but ask her.

"Some things are inconvenient to do during the day..."

What is inconvenient during the day? Could it be...

Annan suddenly thought that the Elf Mentor and Aliana had never appeared at the same time...

Eliminating all possibilities, the only thing that remains, no matter how unlikely it is, is the truth: Irelanzer is Ariana, and Ariana is Irelanzer!
"You are--"

Annan screamed, but Yilanze rushed over and covered his mouth: "Don't say it..."

The aroma filled Annan's nose, but he felt no love in his heart, only confusion: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Irelanze's body was getting hotter and hotter: "Haven't I been hinting at you?"

Annan recalled carefully that although Aliana was indifferent, she did show her familiarity with him. But he still didn't understand: "Why did you do this?" Was there any reason why Irelanze had to disguise himself as Aliana?

"Besides liking you, what else could it be?"

Annan was deeply moved and moved away from the elf mentor who was about to stick to him: "Does anyone else know about this?"

"There aren't many. Elder Taidel might know."

Annan thought about it carefully and told Irilanze: "This is too dangerous... We can be easily discovered."

"I'm not afraid! As long as I can be with you..." Irelanze's breathing gradually became heavier as he thought about what would happen: "I am willing to be expelled from the Elf King's Court!"

"It hasn't come to that yet." Annan took the basket full of the Fruit of the First Heart and continued to say to the Elf Mentor: "Go back first and come back tomorrow during the day."

Irelanzer's eyes almost melted: "You mean... tomorrow during the day... I can..."

"Ok!"

Irelanze walked away in a daze. Annan was a little confused, but his attention soon turned to tonight's open-air screening.

After preparing the food for the "picnic" and taking the magic stone, Annan walked briskly to the intersection.

The elven guards were still the same as last night, but the slight difference was that there was an old male night elf wearing a dark blue wizard robe among them.

Annan rarely saw elves with mature faces...even Irilanze looked only about thirty years old.

"Hello, Lord Annan. I am Samael Nightsong, elder of the night elves."

"Hello."

Annan guessed his intention: "You want to stop me?"

"If you have a request, why not wait until the day to discuss the alliance?"

“I had no demands at that time.”

"You figured it out?" Samael Yege also guessed Annan's purpose.

"Not really..." Annan changed his words halfway through: "Well, to be honest, I like the Green City. I want to go around and have a look instead of being locked up in a cell like a prisoner."

No one doesn't like flattery, even elves. Don't think that they will ignore your compliments in daily life, but if you really think that they don't care and say bad things about you, just wait for them to bear grudges.

The elven guards' expressions softened, and Elder Samael Nightsong also took the initiative to show his goodwill: "Since Lord Annan said so, I think I can make the decision and allow you to look around the Green City."

"Great!"

I just don’t know if it’s because I can’t get it that I’m making a fuss—Annan doesn’t really want to go out.

The elves were understanding, so Annan gave up the idea of ​​continuing the outdoor screening and returned to the tree house under the gaze of the elves.

"solved?"

asked the Skeleton King who was waiting for him at the door.

"Ah."

"It's time for the second thing."

"The second one?"

"You've been here for two days and no one has visited you. Annan, don't you find it strange?" The Skeleton King's soul fire flickered.

really……

There are so many forces, and they move around during the day. There is no reason why none of them would be interested in Liberty City.

Annan had an idea: "Mr. Skeleton King, can you help me pass a message to Minister Fremond Oley of the Taturn Empire?"

The Skeleton King listened quietly to what Annan asked him to say, and reminded him, "He is the minister of the empire. Will he come just because of your invitation?"

"You are right, then add one more sentence."

"It would be best if he agrees. If he doesn't agree, you can say the second sentence to him: 'Minister Oley, you don't want the intimate images of your niece Isabel and Annan to appear in the Voice of Freedom, do you?'"
