Saori Kaede did not continue to eat the rest of the fruit, leaving the fruit to Tiona, who was intoxicated by the taste of cloud fruit.

Saori Kaede walked alone in the forest that glowed blue, and the crystals glowed dreamily, neatly arranged.

Entering the transparent world, Saori Kaede hides its breath and blends in with nature.

Saori Kaede walked around aimlessly.

Unconsciously, he seemed to hear the sound of water, the kind of flowing water that was not nature.

Although the 18th floor is a safe floor, there are also monsters from other floors that occasionally haunt.

Saori Kaede condensed and quietly approached the water source little by little.

After getting closer, the scene in front of him made Saori Kaede stunned.

I don't know whether to lament my bad luck or good luck.

In a pool of spring water, there is an elf.

She is bathing in the spring water, washing her golden hair with water, and her snow-white Jie is facing the yarn maple.

The sound of rippling water is made on the surface of the water.

In the darkness, the crystal light reveals hazy beauty.

Saori Kaede looked at the fairytale-like scene in front of her, held her breath, and wanted to quietly exit.

Fortunately, under the transparent world, he was not discovered by the elves.

He retreated all the way, away from the spring, unaware that he had lost his way.

"This is..." Saori Kaede looked helplessly at the cemetery in front of her.

He couldn't go back the same way, for fear of encountering the elven girl who was bathing.

On the cemetery, there are several cross-shaped wooden tombstones lined up here, which shows that the people who made them were very careful.

"I'm sorry to disturb your peace..." Saori Kaede looked at the tombstone apologetically, and casually picked flowers on the side of the road to offer.

For the quiet place, he was an uninvited guest.

Saori Kaede was ready to go back later to make sure the girl finished bathing.

The sound of footsteps crackling—clicking—

stepping on dead branches came, which caught Saori Kaede's attention.

"Miss Ryu?" Saori Kaede recognized the owner of the footsteps, the waiter of the rich mistress tavern

, he also understood that the elf who had just entered the bath was her, and touched his nose and said awkwardly.

"Mr. Kaede?" The elf girl Ryu was also surprised that Saori Kaede appeared here.

"Mr. Kaede, did you see someone... Forget it, nothing. Ryu wanted to ask Saori Kaede if he saw anyone else.

Just now, she was always vigilant after bathing, found footprints, and immediately chased after her.

Following the footprints to the cemetery, she thought angrily that if someone wanted to defile her partner's silent place, she would never let them go.

After seeing Saori Kaede, Ryumoto wanted to ask him if he had just peeped, but seeing the fresh bouquet of flowers in her partner's graveyard, she dismissed the idea and softened her gaze.

Saori Kaede watched as the elf girl Ryu dotted the white flowers on her hands one by one in front of the tombstone, and then took out the wine bottle from the bag she carried with her and sprinkled it on the grave in order.

"Miss Ryu, this is—" "

It's the grave of my fellow dependents to whom I once belonged." On Ryu's calm face, there was not a trace of waves.

Nodding, Saori Kaede knew that her heart was not as calm as it seemed.

Ryu recounted her past, and Saori Kaede learned from her.

She once belonged to the Asteria clan and was nicknamed Blastwind.

The purpose of the clan is not only to explore the dungeon, but also to fight the little ones who harm Eulari.

Justice is subject to persecution.

They became a thorn in the side of the evil forces and were set traps and ambushed in the city of the earth.

All the members of the group except her died, and she could not even recover the remains of her companions, so she had to bury the relics of her companions here.

Ryu's gaze was gloomy, and Saori Kaede didn't say anything, listening quietly.

"I will ask the goddess Asteria to leave the city after surviving, and I pleaded repeatedly, and the adult accepted."

"Because I don't want the goddess of justice to see my ugly appearance burned by the flame of hatred."

"I was driven by hatred, I used all means, as long as I am related to that organization, I will not let go!"

"Sneak attack! Trapping! Pitfall! Poison! I became a vengeful ghost! In doing so, I naturally became a wanted person.

Saori Kaede could also feel her resentment towards her enemies from her words.

Her enlightenment was also heard in the words, and she had nothing left to linger.

"In the end, I collapsed in the back alley covered in blood, and it was Xi'er who saved me, made me a clerk for the rich hostess, and forced me to dye my hair."

Ryu, who was sitting next to him, finished talking about his past.

"Sorry to hear these unbearable words." Ryu said in a self-deprecating tone.

Saori Kaede smiled and asked rhetorically, "Do you regret it?" Regret that you killed those people? Regret being wanted?

"Nope! I will never forgive those people! Sky blue eyes were wide enough to hear anger.

"Then there is no problem! You just made the decision you wanted in your heart. Saori Kaede didn't deny her past.

"But..." Ryu was speechless.

"You want to say it's wrong, aren't you? Then I must also be a filthy person!

"Because after hearing what happened to you, if I thought that my partner would also die, I would definitely go too far than you!"

"Let them die easily, it's too cheap for them, I must make this group of people suffer more than my partners!" Saori Kaede's faint words made people chill.

Ryu looked at Saori Kaede's face stunnedly, and there was seriousness in his deep black eyes, indicating that he was not joking, but would definitely do it.

The two who were sitting together did not speak again, and the crystal light shone between the two, making the air no longer so cold.

There was silence for a while, and Saori Kaede's untimely voice sounded.

"That, Miss Ryu, I have a request, rather a lifelong wish, can you grant me?"

"Huh?" Ryu looked at Saori Kaede who made a pleading, and motioned for him to say his wish.

"If I can, can I touch your ears, just a moment!" There were no elves where I used to be! Saori Kaede knew what this meant, not to mention that the other party was an elven woman with a cleanliness fetish.

"...," Ryu closed her lips and said nothing.

After hesitating for a moment, she closed her eyes and leaned her right ear in the direction of Saori Kaede.

Saori Kaede gently touched her hand and touched the pointed ears that only existed in manga.

The pointed ears have golden fuzz on them, and the soft touch is as smooth as baby's skin.

Saori Kaede was a little fascinated by this feeling of touching, and rubbed and looked at it repeatedly.

Starting from the neck, Ryu's face blushed to the base of his ears, revealing a drunken blush.

Finally, unable to resist Saori Kaede's touch, she stood up at once and walked outside.

"I... I remembered that I only took half a day off with Miya's mother, and it's almost time to go back, next... See you next time. As soon as the words fell, Ryu ran out like her title.

Sora left Saori Kaede sitting alone in place, and he didn't even have time to call her, he wanted to cry without tears.

"How can this make me go back and get lost again!"
