Game of the World Tree

The golden sunlight slanted on the female elf, as if covering her with a layer of holy light.

She had a smile on her face, and that beautiful face made Maria a little lost every time.

As a former queen of the empire, Maria has not never seen elves since she was a child, and there are many who are more beautiful than the elf priests in front of her.

However, for some unknown reason, only the female elf in front of her would give her a special feeling.

It's a feeling that is hard to describe in words. When you see each other, you can't help but be attracted to each other.

This beautiful elf priest feels so graceful and noble in his gestures.

That kind of unique temperament, even Maria, who came from a royal family, is difficult to look away.

Of course, if that's all, at most Maria can't help but take a few more glances when she sees each other for the first time.

What really made her intersect with the other party was the help the other party gave her in the process of her self-learning of healing magic and natural magic.

Looking at the smiling elf priest, Maria couldn't help but think of the first time she met him a few months ago.

It was an afternoon in early summer. Maria entered the forest to search for a precious potion, but encountered a vicious silver beast.

Although after a battle, the beast was beheaded by her, but she was also seriously injured and had to hide in the cave of the beast to heal.

At that time, the girl was not proficient in healing magic, and the silver beast that was killed also contained toxins. During the healing process, not only did her injuries not recover, but they tended to worsen...

Maria even thought she couldn't go back for a while.

At that time, it happened to run into this traveling lady, and gave her the correct treatment in time, so that she was restored to health.

"Your magic is wrong. The toxin of this magical beast is quite special, and it will lurk in your blood. At this time, if you use a healing technique that stimulates vitality, not only will you not be able to heal the injury, but it will speed up blood circulation and make Your poisoning is worse."

"Although this toxin is not fatal, if it drags on, it is enough to drag your body down. The magic pool and magic circuit in your body may eventually be corroded by the toxin. At that time... you may never be able to use magic."

Recalling how serious Ms. Feng was when she treated her for the first time, Maria felt a trace of gratitude and fear in her heart.

The conversation between myself and the other party seems to be vivid in my mind:

"Are you a traveling elf adventurer?"

"Yes."

"This is the far east, why did you come to such a remote place?"

"This is the last area that the Church of Life has not set foot in. Don't you think it is very memorable?"

"That's why...you came here to travel? So...you are a believer in life?"

"Of course, every elf is a believer in life."

"Then you know... the Elf Chosen?"

"I am."

"..."

Maria couldn't forget her surprise when she first learned about the other person's identity.

Because of some of her own experiences and preconceived impressions, her perception of the Elf Chosen has not been good, and she even said... a little scared.

However, after getting acquainted with the other party, I found out that this is a gentle and elegant elf, and there is absolutely no cruelty, cunning, hypocrisy and greed of the elf Chosen.

Not only that, but with the treatment, she also discovered that the other party has extremely high attainments in healing magic, and even her teacher who has disappeared may not be able to compare with her...

This discovery made Maria instantly excited, because she had always been eager to improve her healing magic.

She hopes to rely on her own strength to help the villagers in the village more.

"Beautiful and noble elf lady, my name is Maria, may I know your name?"

"Wind, you can call me Feng."

"Wind? What a beautiful name. Are you a Druid? Or... a life priest?"

"I am a Druid, but also a life priest."

"Then... can I learn Healing Magic with you? I'm willing to pay for it!"

"sure."

"Thank you! Feng... Teacher Feng!"

"You don't have to call me teacher, just call me Feng."

"No no... It seems too impolite to call your name directly!"

"Miss Maria, I have no plans to accept apprentices."

"In that case, I... I call you Ms. Feng, okay?"

"Can."

In this way, the girl began to learn magic again.

However, the location was not in the forest, nor in Maria's cabin, but on the outskirts of the town of Bonn.

Only after this did the girl know that Feng also came with a mission.

She is not the only one who has come to this area. There are probably more than ten people in total, and their purpose is to build the last temple of life in Bonn Town and spread the word of the goddess of life at the same time. Belief.

Since then, the town of Bonn has often seen preaching priests of life.

However, the wind is rarely seen involved.

Although she often haunts the temple under construction, she spends more time traveling in the town and the countryside, seemingly enjoying a leisurely journey.

Not only that, but she didn't even plan to preach to Maria.

This made Maria, who had been worried that the other party would use belief in the Goddess of Life as a condition for teaching magic, to breathe a sigh of relief...

After going through that night ten years ago, although the girl now has more or less understood what the Church of Life is doing, she still can't cross that hurdle in her heart...

In addition to traveling around the neighborhood in her spare time, what Feng did was to impart magic to Maria.

For the next two months, the girl would meet Feng every time on the outskirts of Bonn, and learn magic from each other.

However, although Feng agreed to teach magic, he did not accept the reward.

"Miss Maria, I'm here to teach you magic. I'm entrusted by others and to fulfill my promise. In addition, it's also my personal relaxation and leisure in my leisure time, so... you don't need to pay."

"Entrusted? Promise?"

Maria is very curious and amazed. As far as she knows, she and the people she once knew have never had an intersection with the elves.

However, when she continued to ask questions, Feng smiled and did not answer.

This made Maria more curious, she thought about it, her identity had already "died" with the fall of the empire, and she knew that she was still alive, and it seemed that only her teacher left without leaving a letter. , and the run-down nobles who recognized her when she was traveling alone.

It is impossible for those nobles who disgusted her to have an intersection with such a noble existence, and the only possibility seems to be her own teacher.

"Maria, I'm leaving."

"Go on! Boy, I hope that one day you will find your true dream."

"I also hope that one day you will be able to re-examine your past with a new look..."

"Until then, let's meet again..."

The girl still remembers every word in the letter left by her teacher, the legendary mage Daniel, before leaving.

Could it be the teacher?

Maria guessed.

Although the teacher did not say in the letter what she was going to do, Maria could vaguely guess that her teacher should attack the demigod for the last chance.

But once he went, he never came back.

However, if it was his own teacher, how did he get to know Ms. Feng?

Maria was curious, but Ms. Feng kept talking about it, and she gradually put it on the back of her mind.

After wandering for several years, the first thing she learned was to be able to afford it and to put it down.

Include your own curiosity.

The days of learning magic are happy for Maria.

Two months passed in a flash, and Maria's healing magic became more and more skilled.

And relying on the continuous improvement of healing magic, Maria also helped the villagers in the village to cure their hidden diseases that had accumulated over the years.

The girl was greatly appreciated by the villagers and became famous.

There were even famous villagers from other villages dozens of miles away, asking for help.

However, everything has advantages and disadvantages, that is, with the spread of her name, her identity does not know when to leak, and the hateful nobles of the former empire are attracted again.

And just a few days ago, the wind found Maria again:

"Maria, your healing magic has reached the level of the sixth ring, and the rest can only be learned after your level continues to break through."

"I will send you some follow-up magic books. You have great potential. I believe... one day you will become a powerful legendary mage."

After listening to Feng's words, Maria sensed the meaning of parting:

"Ms. Feng, are you leaving?"

"Of course, there is no lasting banquet in the world. If there is a meeting, there will be parting. The temple in Bonn Town is about to be built, and your magic has reached a bottleneck. It is time for me to leave here."

The female elf laughed.

"Then... if I want to find you, where do I need to go?"

the girl asked.

"You can go to the east of the mainland, the Forest of Spirits, but... I will return there at least half a year later."

"In the next six months, I want to continue to walk on the mainland and see the customs and customs of various places, the Eastern Saiggs Alliance, the Kingdom of Ayres, and... the Republic of Mania."

Feng said with a smile.

Republic of Mania...

Hearing Feng's words, the girl's eyes were very complicated.

Mania...

It was her former hometown.

It is also the place where she fled in embarrassment.

Until now, she did not dare to return to that land.

Even if she heard scattered news from the streets of the tavern, she did not dare to inquire carefully...

However, even Maria didn't expect that in the end, Ms. Feng hadn't left Bonn Town, but she planned to leave first.

Or rather, escape.

Escape from the past, escape from the aristocracy, escape from the identity she has gradually forgotten.

Thinking of this, Maria once again looked at the smiling wind and sighed in her heart.

And Feng's eyes fell on her luggage, and his eyes were a little surprised:

"Maria, are you leaving here?"

"Yes, Ms. Feng, something happened, I'm afraid you have to leave here first."

Maria smiled wryly.

Feng raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Is it because of the run-down nobles who fled here a few days ago?"

Maria was stunned, then fell silent.

The wind sighed softly and asked:

"Next, what are your plans? Have you decided where to go?"

Maria smiled and said:

"The world is so big, you can go anywhere."

"That is, there is no destination, and I don't know where I should go."

Wind shook his head.

Then, she looked at the girl again and asked:

"In that case, are you interested in traveling with me? The temple has been completed, and I am going to leave tomorrow and go to Mannia."

Mania...

Hearing this name, the girl fell silent again.

She did not answer directly, but suddenly raised her head and asked another question that she had always been curious about:

"Ms. Feng, I have always had a doubt and wanted to ask for advice."

"You are the high priest of the Church of Life, and you have also said that one of the purposes of your coming here is to preach the faith."

"But... why haven't you tried to convert me to the Church of Life until today?"

Hearing the girl's words, Feng smiled slightly.

She looked at Maria, her emerald green eyes seemed to sparkle with stars:

"Maria, I never do things that are hard for strong men."

"Even if I preach to you, are you really willing to become a life believer?"

Maria was slightly taken aback.

Looking at Feng's gentle smile, she suddenly realized that, I am afraid Feng knew from the beginning that even if she had a complicated favorable impression of the Church of Life, she would not join.

Looking at the deep and wise eyes of the other party, Maria also realized at this moment that her true identity was probably already known by the other party.

"Ms. Feng, since you know that I don't want to believe in the Church of Life, then you should also know that I don't want to go back to Mania."

Maria smiled wryly.

"I don't want to? Or don't dare to face it? Maria, after you've been away for so long, do you really want to see your hometown again?"

The wind suddenly spoke.

Maria was stunned, she opened her mouth and was speechless.

At this time, Feng suddenly turned around and looked at the Temple of Life in the distance.

She sighed softly and said softly:

"Maria, a person, only by facing up to what she has experienced, only by facing what she is afraid of, and only by stepping out of the fear buried deep in her heart, can she truly mature..."

"Confusion about the future tends to blossom and bear fruit at that time."

Hearing these words, Maria suddenly raised her head with a look of astonishment.

Because... these words were taught to her by her teacher, Daniel.

She really saw her teacher!

At this moment, Maria was finally determined.

She was about to ask, but Feng turned and left.

"I will leave at eight tomorrow."

"Maria, if you're willing to come with me... come with me, I... will wait for you at the town entrance."

After speaking, her figure disappeared from Maria's sight.
