Path of Light.

Chapter 702 Chapter 703. Encounter on a Ship
There are not many half-elves living in the elven world, and this group usually has no voice in the elven world, but they will be discriminated against by half-elves.

This is a very sick chain of discrimination...

Half-elves are at the bottom of the discrimination chain. Half-blood elves look down on half-elves, and pure-blood elves look down on half-blood elves, but some people are not so disgusted with half-elves.

Among the pure-blooded elves, the Silver Moon elves feel that they are superior to the other two elves because they are of noble birth.

The Dark Moon Elves living in the Evernight Forest in the north of the Elven Continent are the most exclusive, while the Wood Elves living around the World Tree in Darnassus are the most inclusive...

The moment Roy stepped onto the deck of the medium-sized sailing ship, he felt some half-blood elves looking at him with scrutiny. He was worried about being recognized by the half-blood elves, so he sat at the stern of the medium-sized sailing ship after getting on board, watching a few seabirds flying between several medium-sized sailing ships, as if looking for small bull's eye snails in the gaps of the ships.

These seabirds are not afraid of the elves at all. When they are tired of flying, they will land on the railings and masts to rest.

Roy sat at the stern, feeling a little bored.

Waiting for the high tide to come, medium-sized sailboats will leave the harbor with the help of the tide.

He took out a handful of elf cookie crumbs from his magic waist bag, pinched some with his right fingers and stretched them towards the seabird on the railing.

The seabird looked at Roy with its round eyes, then fluttered over and pecked the food from Roy's fingertips like a dragonfly skimming the water...

The seabird's action immediately attracted other seabirds to follow suit, and they all flew towards Roy.

There were some active half-elf children on the deck. They couldn't even find a place to play on the crowded ship. At this time, one of the children saw a group of seabirds surrounding Roy, so they came over curiously and looked at the seabirds fighting for food in front of Roy with envy.

Several half-blood elves were sitting on a bench, with some worn-out luggage piled under their feet, discussing matters concerning the Partington plane.

"My sister is currently living in Padstow, in the Partington plane. Half a year ago, she wrote to me, suggesting that I give up my house and job in Istanbul and move my family to Partington. I was a little hesitant at the time, but later on, many half-blood elves left Istanbul one after another. There are fewer and fewer half-blood elves living there, and wages haven't increased, but the workload has nearly doubled. Last month, I sold my house and furniture in Istanbul and raised enough money for the trip to Partington, so I came to Castleton..."

A half-elf is describing his moving experience.

In fact, Roy admired such elves very much. They had houses and jobs in their original cities. Although life was hard, it was stable. They were just dissatisfied with the exploitation of the Silver Moon elves and their current living conditions, so they had the courage to give up everything and travel thousands of miles with their families to a completely unfamiliar environment.

Come to think of it, this may be because the elves have always had free blood flowing in their bodies...

They dare to abandon their original things and dare to challenge new life.

Another half-blood elf seemed more worried and anxious. He muttered in a low voice:

"I heard that the population of half-elves in Padstow City has exceeded one million. Now there are no seedlings of magic herbs in the Padstow Forest. If you want to collect magic herbs, you have to enter the Blackwater Swamp. Only in the depths of the Blackwater Swamp can you find high-quality herbs. Do you know what kind of dangers there are in the Blackwater Swamp? The poisonous black anaconda with horns thicker than your waist, the swamp dragon fly that flies faster than a falcon. If these high-level monsters set their sights on us, we may not even be able to run away..."

Obviously he had some understanding of the Partington plane, but it was not comprehensive and his emotions were somewhat negative.

Several half-blood elves who were not familiar with the Partington plane suddenly panicked.

"So what can we do after we go to the Partington plane?"

"In fact, there are many jobs to choose from, but the competition for good jobs is also very fierce. Currently, the easiest job to find in Partington is senior carpentry. The best thing is to have experience in building wooden houses..."

A middle-aged half-elf leaning against the railing introduced the half-elf in front of him.

Roy turned his head and saw a team of elf guards passing by the dock. Most of them were familiar faces. He was about to go to the side of the ship and wave to them, but suddenly he realized that he had a scarf around his face, so he withdrew his hand in disappointment.

A half-elf girl stood beside Roy curiously, raising her little face to look at him. She hid her hands behind her back, looking very cute.

Roy squatted down with a smile, stretched out his hand to pinch the girl's smooth face, and asked:
"What's your name?"

"Irene." The little girl answered timidly.

“It’s a nice name.”

"Are you feeding the birds?" the little girl asked, staring at the half elf cookie in Roy's hand and pursing her lips.

Roy blinked and placed half of the elf cookie in the little girl's hand.

"you guess!"

"……no."

The elf girl's pointed ears twitched slightly and her big eyes rolled around, making her look quirky. She quickly put half a biscuit into her pocket.

A bell rang on the mast of the medium-sized sailing ship. This was the bell ringing before the medium-sized sailing ship set sail.

A half-elf woman stood not far away, staring at Roy with a wary look on her face, making Roy look like a dirty old man fishing for goldfish with a little girl.

Roy could only sit on the bench and waved to the little girl secretly...

When the two half-elf men came to the half-elf woman, the half-elf woman finally had the courage to come over, grabbed the little girl's arm, and then stared at Roy coldly and scolded him:

"Put away your tricks. If I see you sneaking up on my daughter again, I'll break your legs!" The half-elf woman in front of Roy was speechless with anger on her face.

"Madam, how did I sneak up on your daughter? I have been sitting here since I got on the boat without moving. Isn't it a bit too much for you to say this?" Roy defended in a low voice.

The half-elf woman bent down and took out half an elf cookie from the little girl's pocket. She said angrily, "Didn't you give this to her?"

"What can half an elf cookie prove?" Roy asked in confusion.

At this time, many half-elves had gathered at the stern.

"Who would give such an expensive thing to a child they don't even know? I suspect you are a slave trader who specializes in selling children to the human world." The half-elf woman pointed at Roy and said loudly.

The half-blood elves watching were immediately in an uproar. At this time, one elf was heard accusing the crew:
"How come there are slave traders on this ship?"

"Crew, crew!... Drive him off before the ship sets sail." The surroundings immediately became noisy.

Two elven crew members squeezed in and began to calm the half-elf lady who was acting a little furious.

"Ma'am, please calm down and let us understand the situation first."

The two crew members did not take any action against Roy immediately, but turned to Roy and asked:
"Sir, do you have anything you would like to explain?"

At this moment, Roy felt that when trouble came, he really couldn't get rid of it. He pulled the black scarf covering his mouth and nose and said:
"I was just sitting here to rest, and this little girl came over. I talked to her for a few words and gave her half an elf cookie. That was it. I didn't take the initiative to talk to any elves."

Roy spread his hands to prove his innocence.

"If he is really as innocent as he says, why did he wear a veil while riding on the boat? Everyone, come and look at his ears. Is it necessary for a human to cover himself up like this while riding on an elven ship?"

The half-elf lady spoke a little louder, and she stood straight as she was surrounded by a group of half-elfs.

At this time, the second bell on the ship rang...

……

Time goes back a few minutes ago...

After the first departure bell of the medium-sized sailing ship rang, the crew began to busy themselves with the tasks before setting sail.

An elven crew member untied the rope tied to the pier pillar and pulled back the rope, which was as thick as his wrist. Several other crew members raised the heavy sails at this time.

There was also wind in the harbor, which soon blew up the sails...

The ship tilted slightly under the force of the wind, and the mast and crossbeam even made a creaking sound.

The two crew members at the stern quickly accelerated the winch and pulled up the heavy anchor.

The medium-sized sailboat slowly left the dock...

At this moment, two Silver Moon Elf guards on white horses rushed over to the port dock. The two elven guards pointed at the crew on the medium-sized sailing ship and shouted:

"What is the destination of this ship?"

"Partington Island!" someone shouted back.

"Hurry up and get ashore. We also want to take a boat to Partington Island." The Silvermoon Elf Guard said loudly.

Although the captain was somewhat reluctant, he did not dare to offend the group of Silvermoon Elf guards, so he asked the crew to lower the sails and throw the ropes back to the dock, and everyone worked together to pull the medium-sized sailboat back to the dock.

At this time, a silver carriage hurried in from outside the port and stopped in front of the medium-sized sailing ship.

Miss Christine got out of the carriage, followed by two maids.

Four Silver Moon Elf guards jumped off their horses, handed the reins to their two companions behind them, and followed Miss Christine towards the medium-sized sailing ship.

White face,
Blue eyes,
Bright red lips,
Soft blond hair,
The apricot-yellow long skirt highlights her beautiful figure, and Miss Christine exudes a luxurious aura from head to toe.

The medium-sized sailboat re-laid the sampan, and Miss Christine, surrounded by six Silver Moon Elves, hurriedly boarded the sailboat...

The ship seemed crowded, with half-elf civilians scattered all over the deck.

The captain came out from the deck and invited Miss Christine to go to the captain's room to rest, but Miss Christine did not accept the captain's kindness. She went straight up the stairs to the roof and occupied a space in a corner at the end of the roof.

Two maids silently brought out a folding chair and an exquisite small round table, and Miss Christine sat down on the roof of the ship.

Four Silver Moon Elf guards stood beside Miss Christine, blocking the view of all the elves on the top of the ship.
