The rescued villainous lady wants to go home with me

"At that time, I will ask Lieradi to send you out." Anmont said.

They are existences living in Anno Forest, separated from the outside world, and Lorraine and Xueni also have their own living environment, so he respects Lorraine's choice.

"However, if you want to come back here one day, you are always welcome."

"I hope to have this opportunity."

Compared with normal people, elves have a longer lifespan.

They will encounter many things and creatures in their lives. Some things that seem special to ordinary people may be very common to elves.

Lorraine felt honored to be remembered by them.

After a brief chat, Lorraine took Xuenie and left the house rebuilt by Anment.

It has only been a few days, and everything that was originally destroyed has now somewhat returned to its previous appearance.

This is due to the tacit understanding among the elves. Even though their number is not very large, the coordination between them allows some things to be completed quickly.

If you really want to retire, this might be a really good place.

It's just that for Lorraine and Xueni, it's too early for that kind of thing.

"Do you just don't want to go back?" Lorraine took Xueni's hand and walked under the elf tree.

"No."

Xue Ni said so, but there was still a little emotion on her face.

"If you want to leave, I will naturally follow you."

Lorraine also knows that compared to those weird things in the capital, the clear relationship here makes people feel very comfortable.

In Lorraine's view, it was purely by chance that they came here.

"Follow me?" Lorraine laughed, "Then you are becoming more and more a child? Only children want to keep following adults."

"So what? A child is a child!" Xueni continued unconvinced, "Didn't you always treat me like a child?"

Xueni felt it a long time ago, and sometimes Lorraine would subconsciously transfer the way of treating children to herself.

"You have to take good care of my little boy."

Lorraine did not respond, but shook his head and smiled. He seemed to be used to this way of getting along with Xueni.

Walking to the small pond, Lorraine and Xueni stopped together.

It was night now, and the light spots among the leaves of the entire elf tree kept falling, just like the stars falling in the night sky, illuminating the surroundings.

The two looked at the stone statue in the center of the pond.

Xue Ni still feels very familiar with this stone statue, but she doesn't know where it is familiar.

Lorraine, on the other hand, knew very clearly who the girl engraved on it was.

"Tianthe." Subconsciously, Lorraine said the name.

In Lorraine's eyes, they are all strange and random gods.

Just when Lorraine and Xueni were about to leave, a strange scene appeared. There was obviously no wind blowing around, but there was rustling of leaves from the elf tree in front of him.

This voice, in this silent night, is particularly obvious.

The elves who thought something happened again came out of the house one after another and looked at the elf tree in surprise.

"What's going on?" Lorraine frowned.

In the past few days, he has often watched this tree, but this is the first time he has seen such a situation.

Lorraine wanted to take Xueni back to avoid anything bad from happening.

But as the leaves vibrated, the falling spots of light instantly increased, and the spots of light illuminated the village under the Elven Tree like daytime.

Compared with the glare and fear of the sun's light, these rays of light are very soft, and there will be no discomfort even if you look directly at them.

Attracted by all this in front of him, Xue Ni stretched out his hand to catch these light spots, just like before, the light spots disappeared when they fell into his hand.

As if some kind of baptism was going on, the falling light spots wrapped Lorraine and Xueni in it.

All the elves leaned over and stared at everything in front of them.

After a while, the number of light spots slowly returned to its original state.

Above that, two thin branches each drifted down with their leaves.

There was neither wind nor other external forces around, but the speed of the two branches falling was very slow, as if being supported by something invisible.

The two branches fell in front of Lorraine and Xueni, and almost at the same time, the two reached out to catch the branches.

Looking at the branches in their hands, Lorraine and Xue Ni looked at each other, puzzled in each other's eyes.

If it wasn't for seeing that the branch came down from the top of the elf tree, both of them felt that there was not much difference between this branch and the branches of ordinary trees.

But even so, they couldn't figure out what was going on.

Just as he was about to ask An Mengte, who were already standing not far away, there was a stabbing pain in the palms of the two holding the branches.

"hiss."

The two groaned in pain.

After recovering, Lorraine quickly asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Xue Ni shook her head. Apart from the pain just now, she didn't feel anything else strange.

Looking at the place where the pain came from, the branch that should have been placed in her palm had disappeared.

Xueni spread her hand and found a miniature branch pattern in the center of her palm, emitting a faint green light.

The same happened in the palm of Lorraine.

It's just that this kind of light quickly faded, and finally disappeared together with the patterns in the hands of the two of them.

Chapter 42

Blessing of the Elven Tree

Not only Lorraine and Xueni, but even the elves standing not far behind them were amazed.

Lorraine opened and closed his palms, and then kneaded them again. The pattern that had just emitted a faint light had disappeared, and there was no longer any appearance, as if it had never appeared before.

But the tingling sensation not long ago reminded Lorraine and Xueni that the mark was there.

"Did you really not feel anything strange?" Lorraine asked Xia Xueni again.

Xue Ni still shook her head, except for the strange feeling in her heart, she didn't feel any other discomfort.

Lorraine felt the same as Xueni, but he always felt that something happened to them, but they didn't know what it was now, otherwise the elf tree wouldn't be able to make such a big commotion.

After a long pause, Lorraine and Xue Ni walked back and walked in front of Anmont.

Both of them looked at their palms again.

"Excuse me, this is?"

After speaking, Lorraine noticed that all the elves looked at the two of them with smiles on their faces.

Anmont looked up at the elf tree, and now it has returned to its original appearance, but it can still be seen that there are many more light spots hanging down than before.

"It should be the blessing of the elf tree."

"The blessing of the elf tree?" Lorraine still didn't understand.

At first Lorraine thought that the elf tree might just be a relatively large giant tree, but after he shot out the branches with a bow and directly suppressed the dragon.

Only then did Lorraine realize that the so-called elf tree is not just as simple as being huge and falling spots of light.

Even with very special arrows, it may not be able to cause such a situation.

Of course, this cannot rule out the role of Tiante.

But what about this blessing?

Anmont said with a smile, "Whenever there is a new couple here, they will conclude a marriage contract under the witness of the elf tree, and the elf tree will also give them corresponding blessings, as if they are sheltering them."

As he spoke, Anmont looked at Dimiya who was standing beside him. That's how they entered into a marriage contract.

Not only them, but many elves here are like this.

It's just that the elf tree gives blessings to the outside world, and it's the first time they've seen it.

"Huh? That is to say..."

Before Lorraine could speak, he clearly felt that the hand he was holding Xue Ni was firmly held back.

Xue Ni next to her, after listening to Anmont's words, was stunned for a moment, and then the expression on her face was replaced by joy and shyness.

In a sense, this is another form of reconfirmation of the relationship between the two after Lorraine's verbal response.

When Xueni talked with Rui Ruosai before, she mentioned that if this incident hadn't happened, Rui Ruosai and Lieradi would have been married under the witness of the elf tree.

At first, Xue Ni didn't know what it meant under the witness of the elf tree, but now she understood.

But suddenly with so many eyes on them, the shyness that Xue Ni suppressed when they were intimate with Lorraine resurfaced.

"No matter where you are in the future, the elf tree will protect you from each other," Anmont said.

For elves, with a longer lifespan, they will be very cautious about the partner they choose.

But once confirmed, they will accompany each other in the long years to come until they disappear.

And the elf tree will also give blessings, linking them more closely.

"It just happened suddenly, but we didn't prepare gifts for you."

Anmont kept a smile on his face, and the other elves also laughed.

Blessed by the elf tree, the elves will naturally bless them too.

It's just that the village has just been rebuilt, and they didn't expect such a situation, so they didn't know what to give them for a while.

"It's already too much trouble for you." Lorraine shook her head.

First, he and Xueni were rescued by them, and now they have received blessings that should not belong to them.

If you want them to give something, it would be a bit too much.

"Well, big brother, can I touch your hand?"

Lorraine looked down, Ai Geyi didn't know when he had already run to his side.

The children during the day also surrounded them.

Lorraine didn't understand what it meant, but he still held out his hand for them to touch.

Xueni beside her was also being touched by a group of little girls.

Dimiya explained, "In this way, they can also get a breath of blessing."

It is an unwritten custom here for children to touch the palms of newcomers.

For them, this is also a relatively happy thing.

After all, it takes a long time for a new couple to show up.

Feeling the child's touch, Lorraine turned her head to look at Xueni, and found that she was smiling and looking at the children touching her palm.

The corner of Lorraine's mouth also subconsciously twitched.

Seeing that the night was getting late, the adults called the children back, then nodded briefly to Lorraine and Xueni, and then walked back slowly.

Seeing that all the elves who approached had gone back, Lorraine and Xueni also walked towards the resting room,

It was obviously the same as before, it was just a simple walk, but Lorraine could feel that Xue Ni's pace was much more cheerful now than before.

Even if he wasn't holding Xueni, Lorraine wondered if she was going to jump up.

Lorraine said, "Aren't you happy?"

Xue Ni looked at Lorraine, and stuck out her tongue at him, showing a rare playful look.

Although she didn't answer Lorraine's words, what she wanted to say now was written on her face.

Like the elves, Lorraine didn't expect that something like this would happen to them just for a walk, which was somewhat strange.
