From now on, the vampire girl escapes from the world

"El?" Lily raised her head slightly and looked at the elf.

The elf's heart skipped a beat, and she realized that she had been fascinated by the scene unconsciously. She turned around hurriedly:

"Ahem, ahem... Lily, where do you want to go to play? There are places in town, in the forest, and in the wilderness..."

"Wherever Ai'er goes, I'll follow."

That’s it! That’s what I want to hear!

Lily was completely unaware that she had unknowingly stepped into the little trap set by Elle. She just followed Elle's gaze and looked at the task board on the wall.

Is this how the humans here live?

Lily recalled the vague memories of her previous life. The people around her were very busy, each doing their own job in an orderly manner - acting as parts in the big machine of society.

But the humans here seem pretty casual.

Is this what a real human being is like?

"Hello, little sister." The male voice was a little rough, but he tried to keep the tone as low as possible.

Ai'er, who was called, raised his head slightly: "What's wrong?"

The man was wearing a fairly sturdy suit of armor, with the breastplate fitting well against his chest.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Devitt, a B-rank adventurer. Would you consider cooperating with me?"

"Hello...cooperation?" Al looked up and let the man continue.

"We have a mission to escort Soller City. The mission requires four to six people, and one adventurer above level B. We can split the money 30% to 70%. The total is this amount—"

The man secretly pointed his finger, as if he was afraid that others might hear him:

"Want to think about it?"

The number was unexpectedly high. Ai'er's eyes trembled slightly: "Is it from the caravan?"

"There are three people in our team, one B-level and two C-level. There is a magician girl whose strength is also B-level, but she has not reached the experience requirement so she has not been upgraded. If we cooperate, you can take 30%... How about it?"

Even if it is 30%, it is still a very tempting amount.

Ai'er was about to agree subconsciously, but she suddenly became aware of the little girl next to her.

Yes, I am not alone this time.

But if you want to go to Soller City, you have to leave this town, and it won't take one day.

Will Lily agree?

Ai'er thought about it and decided to ask.

After all, Lily also said that as long as it's outside, it doesn't matter where we go.

"So you're not coming back?" Lily asked.

"If you go, there's no need to come back."

"Yeah. Listen to Elle."

There was no hesitation in Lily's lavender eyes.

Once again, Ai'er made a victory gesture out of sight.

After hanging around in the human world for so long, I finally made it!

With such a well-behaved little girl following them, can the group of elves hiding in the forest do it!

Can!

17. Departure

There are quite a few cases where caravans post tasks in the union, but not too many.

If a well-established chamber of commerce is established, it will have its own hired guards to transport goods. The guards are paid better than mercenaries and adventurers, and after training, they have stronger combat power and a stronger sense of cooperation, and they are as familiar with the caravan as friends.

Some smaller chambers of commerce that do not have the ability to train and develop their own guard systems will also hire some reputable mercenary teams.

Those guards and mercenaries are experts in protecting the caravans from attacks by wild beasts or bandits in the jungle wilderness.

In comparison, these "adventurers" are completely unconventional.

Although there is a reputation system in place, it is rare for a caravan to be betrayed by adventurers.

But "non-cooperation" is what those adventurers find difficult to handle.

If you have to hire adventurers, it is most likely because the goods being transported have changed, the original team's escort force is insufficient, and no suitable reinforcements can be found.

Of course the salary is not bad, but the requirements are quite high.

For example, for the four people in the requirement, two adventurers are needed as magicians.

But magicians are pitifully few in number, and as they are in great demand, they will be scattered among different teams as they compete with each other. If there are more than two magicians, it must be a very large team.

When Ai'er and Lily arrived at the scheduled meeting place, they looked at the queue of carriages beside them, which were already fully loaded with goods and ready to go.

"Hey, you're here?" The man who had spoken to her greeted Ai'er first.

Lily poked her head out from behind Elle and looked at the humans around her.

"This boy is called Roy, and he is currently at C-rank. The girl is called Leona, and she is also a magician, at C-rank. I have already introduced myself, Dewitt, at B-rank."

The boy and girl behind the man also nodded.

"Aier." Ai'er nodded, then looked at the girl behind her:

"Her name is Lily. She's not an adventurer yet."

Lily also nodded, imitating the others.

She also listened carefully to the self-introductions of several people, but the concepts of "magician" or "warrior" among humans were quite unfamiliar to Lily. It seemed that very few humans could use magic, and there was a distinction between those who could use a little magic and those who could use more magic...

Therefore, Lily didn't really understand and quickly threw those things that couldn't be put into her little head.

"When you get here, say hello to the captain of the guard. Ah, here he is."

DeWitt pointed to one side.

I saw a man not far away wearing full body armor, with his elbows, shoulders, knees, chest and abdomen all tightly wrapped. However, he was surprisingly flexible.

The other person had short brown hair and black eyes with brown. Looking at little Ai'er, he frowned:

"Are you the new adventurer?"

Although Ai'er felt a little unhappy when she heard the other party's tone, she still nodded.

After all, she had to conceal her identity as an elf, otherwise a few humans - let alone the captain of the guard, even the king would not dare to speak to Ai'er like this.

He looked up and down at Ai'er for a while and noticed the little girl behind Ai'er.

The little girl was obviously a little timid, and the shackles on her feet told a lot.

The dissatisfaction in the captain's eyes became stronger:

"You need to bring slaves with you on a mission?"

Lily obviously didn't understand what he meant, but she felt a little uncomfortable with the captain's gaze.

Ai'er immediately glared at him with her deep blue eyes:

"Lily is not a slave!"

"So she's an adventurer?"

"I want to take it with me, do you have any objection?"

The two stared at each other for a while.

Until the man named DeWitt came:

"Calm down for a moment. It's just one more person. As long as it doesn't affect the guards, it's fine, right?"

"Well then." The captain said coldly:

"I really have no right to interfere. But let me make it clear first, we will not take care of the slave's meals, and don't expect us to protect her during the battle. If that happens, I also hope that you will focus on the escort mission and not worry about the life and death of your slave. When we have no choice, we will also treat your slave as part of our property."

"Just try if you dare!"

Ai'er got furious when she heard the last sentence.

Her pupils were almost erect, as if she was about to rush up and blow the captain to pieces - but she was stopped by Lily behind her.

Ai'er turned around, but only saw the same beautiful lavender pupils as always.

"I can protect myself."

Lily said to Elle.

She didn't want El to quarrel with others because of her - El quickly understood this from Lily's eyes.

Ai'er's anger was finally calmed down a little with Lily's comfort.

The captain seemed to have disappeared long ago.

"Tsk." Ai'er forced herself to calm down.

Forget it, forget it. Instead of spending this little time playing with the loli, why not?

While they were still preparing, Elle took out the grilled sausages that she had stockpiled before leaving and watched Lily put them in her mouth and chewed on them.

Some oil stains flowed down the corners of Lily's mouth.

She eats in small bites. She is super cute even when she is eating. She is also a little bit sexy for some reason (?

She was so engrossed in watching it that she suddenly remembered something.

Yes. Maybe Lily didn't need her protection at all.

After all, Lily is most likely a real monster who is much more powerful and terrifying than Elle.

Ai'er suddenly felt uneasy again.

……

The caravans of the Dianpo merchants were lined up in a long row on the road. The cars carrying goods were protected by guards. The square carriages were covered with cloth and ropes, so you couldn't see what was inside. The rest of the guards were arranged in the vehicles in front and behind.
