After walking up the stream for a short distance, what came into sight was a towering cliff.

This was the place where Claire and the others fought with the 'Dragon Emperor Knights' last night. There were shocking and tragic traces of digging and destruction on the edge of the cliff.

"The open-air bath that you worked so hard to build seems to have been completely destroyed."

Mu Hantian murmured as he walked to the other side of the cliff.

"Drink! Bra-!"

The high-pitched voice of tearing silk, accompanied by the sound of breaking the air, came to the ear.

Mu Hantian stuck his head out of the cliff and took a peek, and found a girl with a ponytail not far away who was struggling to swing a sword.

The girl has a pair of heroic brown eyes, and wears a set of light armor on her slender body.

She is the Knight Commander of the Knights of the Wind King - Alice Frangolto.

"Hey! Drink—!"

She swung her long sword with powerful movements, and every blade and every stroke carried a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

Alice is not training her sword skills, but offering sacrifices to the elves living in the creek with a ritual sword dance.

Alice's serious profile face exuding heroic spirit is really beautiful.

After the sword dance came to an end, Alice took the sword back to her waist and bowed deeply to the river.

I saw the water elves emitting a faint glow gathered on the water surface, spinning and dancing happily.

The elves seemed quite satisfied with Alice's sword dance.

Alice showed a relieved expression and began to wipe away her sweat, while Mu Hantian seized the opportunity to greet her.

"Hi, Alice."

"Han Tian...Did you see what happened just now?" Alice turned her head and asked in surprise with her big brown eyes.

"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to peep."

Mu Han scratched his head and continued to approach Alice.

"Alice's sword dance is really beautiful."

"What! You, you say I'm... beautiful?"

"Uh...I mean your sword dance. But...about the same, because Alice herself is beautiful."

Hearing this, Alice blushed instantly.

"You...you frivolous fellow! Come here and kneel down for me to reflect, I'm going to chop you up and make onions roasted!"

In the blink of an eye, Alice had already drawn out her long sword and put the sharp blade on Mu Hantian's neck.

"Why are you suddenly angry?"

"Ju, you actually said that I'm beautiful, you don't think so at all...!"

"No way, I'm just honestly speaking my real thoughts."

"Um..."

The knight captain's face turned redder and brighter, showing an expression of hesitating to speak, not knowing how to respond.

"Then... Then tell me, what are you here for?... Could it be that you want to peep?"

"Don't be stupid, how is that possible!" Mu Hantian rushed to refute at the first time, and the result——

"Hmph...I know. On the contrary...even if I'm taking a shower, I don't see much, right!" Alice turned her head away as if she was angry, deliberately not looking at Mu Hantian.

"Uh, that's not what I meant. I just said that I wasn't peeping. Besides, if I saw you bathing and purifying, I would die horribly."

"Uh, that...actually...it's not impossible..."

"What are you talking about?" Alice's voice was so low that Mu Hantian couldn't hear it clearly.

"Nothing, let's go back."

"it is good."

………………

At this time, the sun has risen high, shining on the entire floating island 'Laguna Yi Shi'——

Mu Hantian and his party had breakfast near the river.

"Anyway, hurry up and start before the food is cold."

"I agree with you, Han Tian."

Esther, who was sitting beside Mu Hantian, couldn't wait to nod his head in agreement.

Everyone used the section of the big tree as a dining table, and placed a few warm breakfasts on it.

Freshly toasted bread with just the right amount of char; river fish skewers lightly seasoned with salt; salad made with wild herbs; sautéed mushrooms in cream; and Lauren Frost's home-cooked chicken soup - using A delicious salty soup simmered with **** and spices, and more, each one looks delicious.

"Everyone, enjoy it to the fullest. Every dish is made by this lady's self-confidence." Rinsley proudly raised her chest and said.

"Wow, this is too rich. Where did these ingredients come from?"

With the canned food brought by everyone, it is impossible to make this luxurious meal.

"It was collected when Scarlet and I were sleeping soundly in the cold weather."

"The forest in this sanctuary is like a treasure trove full of ingredients."

"It sounds like it's similar to the academy's 'Spirit Forest'... So, it's almost unpleasant to think it's a different world."

Aside from the fact that there are many elves living in it, the ecosystem of the floating island is not much different from the mainland.

"Hantian, this is because 'Laguna Yi Shi' is a sanctuary directly under the jurisdiction of the elf king. You don't think there are so many witches here who serve the elf king. If the environment makes it difficult for them to live, wouldn't it? Is it nerve-wracking?"

A few years ago, the ex-girl witch Fianna, who once belonged to the "Holy House of Rites", pointed out.

It turns out that this is a rather special place in the 'Elemental Spirit World'.

"I'm going to hunt a big fat wild boar back for dinner."

Rinsley made a gesture of firing a bow and arrow.

The 'sanctuary' that was originally under the jurisdiction of the Elf King prohibited any hunting behavior, and only during the Elf Sword Dance Festival was the ban lifted to allow contestants to hunt.

"I'm going too. I'm not very good at cooking, but hunting is my specialty."

"I...I don't like hunting very much. When I think of shooting those cute furry animals, I..."

Alice frowned, grabbed Scarlet, who was gorging on fish, and held it tightly in her arms.

"Mi? Meow meow meow—!"

Scarlet struggled, seemingly troubled.

"Alice, let it go now... it doesn't like being held by you."

"Uh... it's not like that! Look, Scarlet and I have such a good relationship!"

"Meow-meow-!"

Mu Hantian smiled bitterly as he watched the bickering between the two, and drank a sip of the specially made soup.

The soup made from grated and boiled whole **** is very nourishing and warms the whole body.

"The dishes cooked by Rinsley are very delicious." Esther praised expressionlessly.

"Agree." Restia also said aloud.

"Hehe... Esther, you have to eat a little more to grow up quickly."

"In terms of cooking, I also have to admit that you really have two brushes. When I revive the Alstein family, maybe I can consider hiring you as our housemaid."

"Huh? Really, really?"

Hearing this, Rinsley showed a slightly happy expression. But then-

"Hey! You tell me clearly why this lady has to go to your house to be a maid!"

"Maybe your maid outfit will unexpectedly fit you well."

"You, you shut up! I think you will dress a hundred times better than me!" Rinsley scolded angrily.

"Why does this guy seem a little different from ordinary people when he is angry?"

Mu Hantian was caught between the gunfire of the two childhood playmates arguing, tilting his head in doubt.
