Path of Light.

Chapter 169. 170. Invitation

The seventh group responsible for telling this period of history completed the first half of the course and returned to their seats amidst bursts of warm applause.

Apparently, the seventh team spent a lot of time researching this period of history. They did not make a fuss about the naval battle at Castleton port. An epic love story.

For elves who like romantic love, this is simply a cup of poison.

When the members of the seventh group walked back to their seats, the students sitting on the edge of the aisle stood up and saluted the ten members.

Princess Ophelia also walked up to the podium while applauding.

The scene is very lively...

Edith took the opportunity to change seats with her best friend, and suddenly sat next to Roy. Although she looked directly at the podium, she quietly asked Roy:
"Roy, do you know Denzel Simpson?"

"Captain Simpson? He helped me twice."

Roy lowered his head and answered in a low voice.

"Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

Edith rolled her eyes and said to Roy:

"He is my swordsmanship teacher. I only found out yesterday that you guys know each other."

After the two chatted casually for a few words, Roy thought of Earl Amelia's abnormal reaction when he heard the name Udulla in Ellington Castle, so he asked Edith:

"Edith, do you know Mrs. Udulla?"

Edith frowned, and a girlfriend beside her whispered something in Edith's ear.

Edith asked suspiciously:

"You mean... the female blood elf pirate who was sent to the trial two weeks ago?"

Roy nodded and asked again: "Well, have you heard her name before?"

"No."

Edith answered in the affirmative.

"Oh……"

Then Edith whispered:

"Roy, these days just happen to be the best season for going out to sea. We plan to go out to sea by boat this weekend. Can you come?"

Roy hesitated.

Edith's circle of friends is almost all the elves and nobles in the upper city. She is willing to make a half-elf as a friend, but this does not mean that the silver moon elves around her will accept it.

Roy asked in a low voice:
"Um, won't it be inconvenient if I go?"

Edith blinked, but she didn't expect Roy to ask such a question.

"All the students are invited to this party, so you and Claire can come together." Edith said to Roy.

She first noticed Roy because he met Princess Ophelia...

In fact, a large part of the reason why she is willing to contact Roy now is still Princess Ophelia's continuous attention to Roy.

Now she found out that Mr. Simpson and Roy also knew each other...

That's why Roy was invited to the party.

For Roy, this was the first time he had been invited to a party. Since Edith didn't think it mattered, Roy still wanted to see this kind of small party.

"OK!"

Roy readily agreed.

……

On Wednesday morning, Roy waited for Claire at the gate of the college.

Talk to him about Edith's invitation to go out on a boat on the weekend.

Claire readily agreed...

During the recent period, Claire has become a somewhat famous figure in the Elf Academy.

Every day, I can meet the Silver Moon Elf who wants to get to know him, and even receive perfumed letterheads every day.

Roy would often see different appearances of silver moon elf girls around Claire.

When Claire heard that Roy was going to attend the gathering of the young elves, of course she was very supportive.

Putting his arms around Roy's shoulders, he said to Roy:

"If you ask me...you should have attended more of these gatherings long ago. As long as you live in Castletown, you cannot leave this circle."

The two walked towards the training ground, and there were always some elves greeting Claire warmly along the way.

Claire raised her hand, and hardly put it down along the way.

"You don't need to be friends with every elf, but everyone must know you!" Claire said to Roy.

This is Claire's point of view. Many of his views and habits on life were instilled in his mind by his sister, Bai Lier.

Then Claire lowered her voice very low, almost put her mouth on Roy's ear, and asked him in a low voice:

"Roy, have you heard the sounds of nature recently?"

Roy pushed Claire away hard, keeping him away from him.

Elves admire art and love music.

It was in the music appreciation class that Claire played the song 'Blue Dane River', which almost caused a sensation in the entire Elf Academy.

Recently, according to what Roy said, he tried to listen to the sounds of nature every day. After trying continuously for more than a month, he finally made Claire realize one thing, that is, there is an existence between each elf. Surprised by talent.

Claire thought that although her pointed ears were beautiful, they were obviously inferior to Roy's pair of ears in terms of practicality.

For such a long time, he hadn't seen the movement of nature in Roy's mouth.

Roy glanced at Claire and saw that his eye circles were a little dark, obviously because he didn't sleep very well recently.

Hearing Claire ask this question, I know that he may also be trying to create recently. It may be his own wrong guidance, which makes his friends doubt themselves...

Roy thought for a moment, then whispered:
"Don't tell me... When I was studying modern history yesterday, I heard my classmates tell about the glorious life of Lord Bernice, and I really heard some poignant music last night."

"You heard it again?" Claire said excitedly, her eyes widened, and she put her arms around Roy's shoulders.

"Otherwise, let's go and listen together tonight, on the beach below the seaside castle in Castleton port, and then, I'll let you try the grilled fish I made."

Roy said to Claire.

Claire seemed particularly excited, and immediately agreed...

"Okay!"

……

After the rally at the Statue of Liberty, Abt couldn't wait to slip out of the gate of the temple.

Leaving Roy and Jasper to clean the main hall.

While moving the bench, Jasper complained to Roy:
"This guy Abbott is completely crazy. When he sleeps at night, he recites the names of the islands in the endless sea in his sleep. Sometimes he will suddenly sit up from the bed and let out a series of silly laughs."

"I'm going to have a nervous breakdown from him..."

Roy said speechlessly: "If you want me to tell you, you can give him half of the treasure map!"

Jasper said somewhat indignantly:
"How is it possible? I guess he is trying to give me a little mental pressure. I want to see what he wants to do!"

Roy lowered his head, cleaning up the garbage on the floor...

The two finished all the work on the side of the Statue of Liberty, and filled the holy water pool with well water. Then they left the Statue of Liberty and came to the port pier.

Roy bought some fresh sea fish at the fish market, while Jasper bought some freshly squeezed juice and fruit wine.

When I came to the seaside on the west side of the port, I saw Claire was already waiting in the small square. He was standing next to a carriage, looking at the Black Pearl from a distance.

With a bucket in his hand, Roy stood on the pier and waved vigorously to Claire.

The three of them got together and went straight to the Black Pearl.

Claire stood on the deck and asked Roy enviously:
"So, such a big sea ship now belongs to the three of you?"

Jasper stood under the mainmast and introduced to Claire:

"Well, it was identified as an abandoned shipwreck after it was first salvaged from the deep water area of ​​the port wharf. At that time, the whole ship was full of mud, all the windows and doors were broken, and there was a big hole at the bottom of the ship. The cabin is also full of stinky mud."

"The most important thing is that the entire ship is almost full of resentful spirits and revenants. If we hadn't cleaned them up in time, these revenant spirits might have come out to disturb the people."

"At that time the ship had become a ghost ship..."

"It's because we took out some of our savings, cleaned up the ship bit by bit, and refurbished it, so it became what it is now."

Standing on the deck and looking at this ship, you will find that this ship is really big.

Roy set up a barbecue grill on the bow of the boat. In addition to grilled fish, there were grilled pineapples on it.

This obsession with cooking food with fire is almost engraved in Roy's bones.

After a simple dinner, Roy and Claire boarded the roof of the ship building, and they sat on the bench on the roof blowing the sea breeze.

Jasper climbed to the observation deck along the mainmast, and gazed at the distant sea by himself.

Having not heard from Miss Tiffany for more than two months, Jasper first stood on the bow of the ship and waited, then stood on the roof of the ship building, and now stands on the watchtower...

Behind him is the castle by the sea. As the setting sun falls into the sea, the castle behind him slowly disappears into the shadows.

The sound of waves crashing on the rocks on the beach.

The tide is high, and occasionally there will be the clanging sound of sea ships entering the port...

Claire didn't hear Lady Bernice's voice...

It's scary enough if you can hear it.

Roy leaned on the railing with both hands, facing the seaside castle in the dark, and closed his eyes to face the sea breeze blowing from the side.

He raised his hands and pushed two groups of faint holy light into the mid-air above his head. Following the sea breeze, the two groups of light floated away from the Black Pearl and flew towards the seaside castle behind.

Claire was confused, but then heard Roy humming a beautiful melody.

'Liang Zhu'...

Claire's eyes chased the two gleams of light, and it seemed as if two elves were flying around the seaside castle in her mind, flying all the way to the fountain of life.

He even forgot to take out his notebook to record this beautiful melody.

It wasn't until Roy finished humming this beautiful melody that Claire leaned on the bench with a dejected face, and said in an extremely depressed mood:

"Roy, why do you say I can't hear..."

Roy turned his head, opened his eyes and asked Claire:

"So... have you written it down?"

"Uh, not yet!" Claire quickly dug out the music score from the magic pocket, and said to Roy:

"Roy, can you hum it again?"
