Chapter 436: Daphne is a little special
The Emerald City,

Li Si looked at the two of them curiously and asked with a smile:

"Are you guys shopping?"

Daphne nodded and said thankfully:
"Of course. I was brought back by Sister Xiandel before and was locked up for a long time!"

"It's so boring. I finally got out of here, but you won't let me go out."

Xiandel shook her head and said helplessly:
"You still say that the trouble you caused by running around before wasn't big enough?"

"If you hadn't met Mr. Li Si, you wouldn't know where you would have been taken!"

"Lord Harold has been very lenient with you, otherwise you would have been taken back to the land of elves by now."

Daphne was speechless for a moment. She took Chandel's hand a little embarrassedly and said coquettishly:
"I understand, Sister Xiandel, I will never run around again next time!"

"Don't blame me. I finally got out once."

Xiandaier didn't care about Daphne's playfulness, looked at Li Si and said:

"Mr. Li Si, I didn't expect to meet you here?"

"But why don't you see Cecil?"

Li Si nodded and explained:
"Cecile is visiting his father, and I'm going to have a good time in the Emerald City."

"I've always heard about the prosperity of the Emerald City, so I'd like to take this opportunity to visit it."

"I see, I think you will like this place, Li Si!"

Xiandel smiled softly and said in an affirmative tone.

It seems that the elf in front of him seems to be very proud of the prosperity of the Emerald City.

"Maybe it's the goddess' will that I can meet you here!"

"Li Si, this is your first time in the Jade City. Why don't I treat you to a taste of the Jade City's delicacies? I'm sure you won't be disappointed!"

"It's also a way to express my gratitude to you, Li Si. If Daphne was really taken away by those people, the consequences would be troublesome."

Upon hearing this, Daphne nodded repeatedly.

She had been living in the land of elves and had little contact with other races.

Even in the Emerald City, Daphne felt uncomfortable with the way many humans looked at her.

But Li Si would not be like this. It might be because Li Si saved Daphne, making Daphne feel that Li Si did not have bad intentions towards her like some humans.

Moreover, after Li Si rescued Daphne, the erudition he displayed during the conversation made Daphne feel very interesting.

This human is handsome and speaks nicely, I like him very much!
"OK then."

Seeing this, Li Si did not refuse.

Anyway, he had nothing else to do at this time, and he wouldn't be able to get the legendary Lich Ring in a short time.

In the Emerald City, Li Si did have some plans, but those things had to be done after the matters of the Elf King's Court.

The most important thing he faces now is the Elf King's Court.

After a while, under the leadership of Xiandaier, several people came to a place called Oak Bar, which was some distance away from the bustling commercial street and seemed a little quieter.

When you push open the wooden door and walk in, you will be greeted by a refreshing aroma of wine and flowers. A chandelier made of vines hangs from the ceiling, emitting a soft and warm light. Various strange and exquisite elf paintings and ancient musical instruments are hung on the walls, as if telling the legendary stories of the elf world.

The tavern is surrounded by comfortable chairs and soft jade-colored carpets embroidered with colorful flowers and vines, as if the vitality of the entire forest is concentrated here.

In this elf tavern, time seemed to become slow and leisurely, relaxing and melodious music sounded softly, and Li Si enjoyed this rare tranquility and harmony.

Xiandaier took Li Si and Daphne to sit at the side of the tavern and said with a smile:

"This is the place I like to come to, I hope you will like it too."

“It’s really a nice place.”

Li Si nodded and said that there were not many people in the store at this time, and apart from Li Si, there were no other customers except the elves.

The decoration inside the store is also very exquisite, and the soft lighting and music seem to be the effects of special magic props.

Daphne was very curious and seemed to be touching and looking around.

A moment later, the elf waiter brought the dishes that Xiandel ordered.

The colorful fruit and vegetable platter is a specialty of the Elf Forest. Extremely fresh and delicious fruits and vegetables are cut into small pieces with rich colors, and then drizzled with sauces made of honey, lemon juice, etc. to add some flavor.

The various exquisite and delicious pastries are also not to be missed. Those pastries made by the elf bakers themselves are in various shapes, some look like delicate flowers, and some look like small mushrooms. They are all made of various natural ingredients, such as honey, dried fruits, jams, etc., with rich and diverse tastes.

Although wheat is not produced in the Elf Forest, cakes made with flour are one of the elves' favorite foods, so wheat has become the most common cargo carried by caravans traveling to and from the Elf Forest.

In addition to vegetable and fruit platters and pastries, the Elf Tavern also has other elf-style (vegetarian) dishes, which taste really good.

Li Si had some knowledge of the elves' food in the game in his previous life, so this was not surprising to him.

However, what surprised Li Si was the emerald green fruit wine in the Elf Tavern. This fruit wine was brewed from fruits unique to the forest. It was emerald green like jade and crystal clear.

Gently shake the crystal wine glass, exuding a faint fruity and wine aroma, which makes people intoxicated.

While enjoying the food, Li Si, Cinderella and Daphne chatted about what they had seen during the journey.

Daphne seemed to like this fruit wine as well. After drinking some more, her little face turned red and she fell asleep on Chandelle in a short while.

Chandelle looked at Daphne, feeling somewhat helpless.

The alcohol content in this fruit wine is very low, so she didn't restrict Daphne.

But I didn't expect Daphne to get drunk. It seems I can't let her drink anymore.

After thinking for a while, Xiandaier said to Li Si:

"I wanted to invite you to my place today, but Daphne may not be able to do that now."

"Her elders are also there. They said before that they wanted to thank you, Li Si."

"It's okay, I'll come visit you again when I have time!"

"Aren't Daphne and the others going to stay in the Emerald City for a while?"

Li Si waved his hand and said with a smile.

When chatting just now, Xiandaier did not avoid Li Si and briefly talked about Daphne's situation.

Daphne came from the secret realm of the Elf Kingdom [Elfland], and her identity was not ordinary. As a moon elf, she seemed to be very valued and was always watched closely, so she sneaked out this time. When Xiandel knew that Li Si was going to the Elf King's Court, she was quite surprised. After all, there must be something wrong with the Elf King's Court, otherwise it would not have sealed itself off.

However, if the Elf Royal Court does not ask the Emerald City for help in this matter, it is not easy for the Emerald City to intervene directly.

Unexpectedly, Li Si would follow the Iliseel family's team and prepare to enter the Elf Royal Court.

Xiandaier could only remind Li Si to be careful. After all, it was not convenient for her to tell Li Si too much about the disputes within the Elf Kingdom.

Li Si had already prepared for this, and thanked Xiandai for his concern.

On the way to Cecil's house, Li Si pondered what Cinderella had just said.

For some reason, Li Si always felt that Xiandaier was a little strange when talking about Daphne, as if Daphne's identity was a little sensitive, and some things were not convenient to tell Li Si.

And although Cinderella has a good relationship with Daphne, she pays great attention to Daphne's appearance.

But it is also true that, from his previous communication with Daphne, he called the great elven sage Adela "sister". That person is an absolutely powerful figure in the legend, the messenger of the elven gods, so Daphne's identity must be extraordinary.

And for some reason, when Li Si was with Daphne, he always felt that there was an inexplicable attraction to this elf girl.

Li Si was sure that this feeling was not due to his lust for beauty. Although the Moon Elf Daphne was indeed young and beautiful, Li Si's mind had been tempered and would not be easily shaken.

Sure enough, the elf girl Daphne is very special!

However, Li Si has no intention of exploring further now, as the matter of the Elf King's Court is more urgent.

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Si walked towards Cecil's house.

When Li Si saw Cecil, the girl's eyes were red, as if she had been crying.

"What happened?"

Li Si was silent for a moment and then asked.

"It's okay, let's go back."

Cecil shook her head and said to Li Si.

She hadn't seen her father for a long time, and today she finally had a chance to have a good chat with her father, Igli.

After telling his father Igli what happened in the Elf King's Court and Elder Ricardo's preparations, Igli became very worried.

It was obvious that someone was secretly targeting the Ilisere family, and Cecilia was completely implicated.

Igli wants Cecil to stay in the Emerald City and not go to the Elf King's Court.

Cecil refused.

Although she knew her father was doing this for her own good, Cecil felt that this would not solve the problem.

She had actually been attacked on the way from Nelin City to Akote City, which meant that she had been targeted by those people.

The other party dared to take action in the Elf King's Court, so how could they give up just because of the Emerald City or his father?

Of course, there would be no problem if Igli stayed with Cecil all the time.

After all, the title of Wind Sword Saint was earned by Iger through fighting with the sword in his hand, but strength cannot solve everything.

Otherwise, how could the legendary warriors in the Elf Royal Court be helpless in the face of such a sudden incident and could only passively take the beating?

Cecile didn't want to delay her father's business, so she asked him to stay with her all the time.

She also felt that Ricardo's serious and cautious attitude along the way also proved that the elder of the Ilissel family was indeed doing his best to protect them.

After all, there have been so many attacks on the Sun Elves, and all the energy of the Ilithel family is now focused on protecting their safety.

Therefore, Cecil felt that her safety would be guaranteed if she went to the Elf King's Court.

It's impossible that as the most important place in the Elf Kingdom, the Elf Royal Court would have problems, right?

Of course, in addition to this, Cecil had another reason to persuade Igli, which was to visit his mother who lived in the Elf King's Court.

Although Cecil gained precious freedom because of his father's struggle, Igli's wife, Arianna, Cecil's mother, did not have such an opportunity.

She had to stay in the Elven Court to preserve the dignity of the Ilissa family.

For the safety of her husband and daughter, Ariana finally chose to obey the family's request.

Igli only occasionally had the opportunity to go to the Elf King's Court to see Ariana, and Cecil had never seen her mother again since she left the Elf King's Court.

Cecil still missed her mother very much, which was why she did not have much resistance to going to the Elf King's City of Tingdrono this time.

Igli had no choice but to respect Cecil's choice.

Although so many things happened that made Igli very worried, the Ilithel family, as one of the three major sun elf families in the Elf Kingdom, is still quite powerful.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have put so much effort into resisting.

After giving Cecil a few words of advice, Igli looked at Li Si and said:

"Mr. Li Si, please help me with Cecil's matter."

As for Li Si, although there were some awkward misunderstandings before, Igli still believed in Li Si's strength.

More importantly, Cecil had a very high opinion of Li Si, which made Igli feel a little jealous unconsciously.

"It should."

Li Si nodded and didn't say much.

To be honest, in the entire Elf Kingdom, the place with the most plots and opportunities is the Emerald City. Li Si remembered that in some early and middle stages of his previous life, almost all the plots involving the Elf Kingdom were related to the Emerald City.

The place where Li Si stayed the longest was also the Emerald City, so he was quite familiar with Igli, the leader of the Elf Guard. Making friends with him would be very helpful to some of Li Si's subsequent plans.

However, Igli was not as normal in his previous life as he is now. Perhaps it was because his wife Ariana and daughter Cecil both died in the destruction of the Elf Royal Court, which later became almost an obsession for him.

All Li Si could do was to protect Cecil as much as possible.

To be honest, Li Si is a little pessimistic about the current situation of the Elf Royal Court.

No matter from which perspective, under Demogorgon's plan, the destruction of the Elf Royal Court is almost irreversible.

Especially the legendary vampire Benfica who appeared in the Kingdom of Bolin and attacked him and Angela. There are many signs that he is related to the changes in the Elf King's Court.

But Benfica left the Elf Court and appeared in the Bolin Kingdom. Could it be that Demogorgon’s conspiracy against the Elf Court is almost coming to an end?
Li Si always felt that the curtain of Demogorgon's plan had been lifted in front of him, but it seemed that there was some great terror hidden behind the curtain.

Li Si did not talk about these things with Igli, but walked towards the Ilisel family’s residence with Cecil.
