Path of light

Chapter 669 670. Don’t let time slip away from missing you

The medium-sized sailing ship arrived at the Castletown Port pier just as the lights started to turn on. The lights in the city lit up the entire hillside. The statue of the Silver Moon Elf was hidden in the night. Only a vague outline could be seen, as if it was covered with a veil. A layer of mystery.

The sea was relatively calm, with not much wind and waves. This medium-sized sailboat sailed smoothly on the sea.

Leah and Alice saw the sea for the first time in their lives and took a boat for the first time. Although they had built magic airships before, the magic airship only really fell into the sea in the shelter of Partington Island.

The medium-sized sailboat brought them a completely different experience. The waves kept hitting the bow of the boat, and the sisters even became a little seasick.

But Leah quickly adjusted from this dizzy state.

The bright lights in the distance showed the difference between this place and the dark place. The salty sea breeze blew on her face, and Leah stretched her body.

She hid in the cabin all day, and only came to the deck to breathe in the evening. When night came, this made him feel very comfortable.

Alice, wrapped in a scarf, also walked out of the cabin. She looked curiously at the statue of the Silver Moon female elf on the top of the mountain, and asked Roy:

"That Silver Moon female elf must be the hero here."

Roy was stunned for a moment, followed her gaze, and realized that he was talking about the Castletown landmark.

"Many elves say that the statue is Amelia Earl Ellington, who founded the city of Castletown." Roy said.

Thinking of Count Amelia, Roy found that it was a good thing that he hadn't been to Castle Ellington for a while.

I probably won’t have time to return to Castleton City this time…

Leah looked at the port pier that was becoming clearer and clearer in her eyes. The pier was filled with various ships, and the pier was also very lively. Although it was already dark, there were still many elves walking around on the pier, and there were still many elves walking around on the pier. There were some half-blood elves taking boxes of supplies off the ship.

The Archmage Grimes was not interested in seeing this and was resting alone in the cabin.

Roy introduced the two sisters:

"This is Castletown Port. It is located on the east coast of the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom in the Elf Continent. It is a natural harbor. If we can cross this endless sea, the other side of the sea will be the Roland Continent."

Breathing in the familiar smell of the sea, Roy felt his whole body relax.

There was only a faint red streak left in the sky, and Roy continued to say to the two sisters:

"I will bring you to Castletown. If you like it here and are willing to settle in the Elf Continent, then don't come back to Golfito with me."

He pointed to the brightly lit street market in front of him and said to the two sisters:

"Living in this city should not be stressful for you."

Alice stood aside and said nothing, but Leah put her hands on her hips, looked up and glared at him, and asked:

"Roy, are you going to throw us away? Just throw us away like trash?"

Roy was a little confused by Leah's words. When did he become a scumbag?

"Uh? Why do you say that? I just think it's suitable for you to settle in Castletown. If you don't want to stay here, you can go back to Golfito with me," Roy said.

Leah looked at Roy and said very seriously: "Alice and I have already decided that we will become your followers and join the mine guard group."

"I thought your minds would change when you came to Castletown. Don't be too busy making decisions now. Anyway, you are going to stay here for a few days and take a walk around Castletown. Maybe then I’m chasing you away, you don’t want to leave…”

The three of them stood on the side of the ship, facing the sea breeze, looking at the blurred boundary between sea and sky in the distance. Behind them were the brightly lit port terminals and the mid-level market...

Leah asked Roy for no reason: "Roy, what is your dream?"

Roy said casually: "I don't have any dreams. In fact, I have always wanted to prove that this world is not real."

"Then have you proved it?"

"without……"

…

At the Castletown Port pier, Roy discovered that the imperial merchant ships could actually berth at the deep-water pier, but there were elf guards wandering around the area all the time, and it seemed deserted there at night, except for the supplies piled on the pier. Outside, there was no Imperial crew in sight.

The great magician Grimes got off the boat and said to Roy energetically:

"I will report to the Magic Guild first. We will meet at the entrance of the Magic Guild tomorrow morning. This trip will take about three days. During this time, you need to settle them both."

Roy looked at the two sisters who were following him, looking around at the surrounding buildings, and shouted to them:

"Leah, Alice, you come with me, I will take you to find a place to live."

The main mast of the Black Pearl that ran aground on the beach has now turned into a big green tree, and the top of the ship has also turned into a flower garden, which is full of flowers of light.

Roy took Leah and Alice past the deepwater dock and all the way to the front of the Black Pearl.

Opening the bottom hatch of the Pearl, Roy introduced Leah:

"This ship is jointly owned by me and two friends, but they died long ago. Now the Black Pearl belongs to me. I have slightly modified it. I usually have a friend who lives here. I’ll introduce you later, and you two can stay on the Black Pearl for the next few days.”

Liya walked in the dark cabin corridor, and Alice followed behind them, holding up a ball of holy light in her hand, which illuminated the corridor in an instant.

"Who is it?"

Tiffany's voice came from above, and then a ball of ice flame appeared on the steps, illuminating the corridor in a pale white...

Roy even heard the faint sound of Tiffany chanting a spell.

He was worried that Tiffany would drop an ice ball and then cast an ice explosion, so he immediately agreed:

"Tiffany, I'm Roy, I'm back."

There was a cheer on the deck, and then the hatch on the deck was pushed open from the outside, and a slender figure ran in from the outside of the hatch and shouted:

"Roy, why did you suddenly come back from Golfito, is the garrison mission over?"

Roy went up and said, "There's a little trouble on Partington Island, I came back to deal with it, and I'll visit Castletown by the way. Oh, let me introduce you to two friends, Leah and Alice, they are sisters from the dark land."

Miss Tiffany then noticed the two half-blood elves behind Roy. She pulled the lilac-colored mermaid tail dress she was wearing, making a perfect teardrop-shaped outline on her chest, and then looked at Leah and Alice with a scrutinizing look.

"This is Leah, this is Alice, they came from the dark land." Roy introduced.

Before Roy said Miss Tiffany's name, Miss Tiffany took the lead in extending her hand to the two sisters and said:

"Hello, I'm Tiffany, welcome to the Black Pearl."

Lia is more outgoing and likes to be the first to do anything. She took the initiative to greet Miss Tiffany. Alice followed Leah and looked around the decks curiously.

Miss Tiffany came up and gave Roy a big hug.

Roy whispered to Tiffany: "I plan to let them stay with you for a few days. I will come back and take them away in three days."

"No problem."

Miss Tiffany agreed.

Leah and Alice were arranged on the Black Pearl. The room was very clean and the supplies were facing the sun...

Soon the three of them became familiar with each other.

...

Roy walked home alone along Brown Street. The street was very deserted, and only a shadow followed Roy.

Pushing open the gate, he found that the house was dark, and there was nothing hanging on the clothesline on the terrace. Obviously, no one lived in the house.

Roy couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

When he walked into the house, although the room had been cleaned, there was a damp smell in the air.

The rainy season had just passed, and everywhere was wet, with some mold spots in many places.

The room was still empty. Roy didn't turn on the lights in the living room. He went directly to the second floor and looked at Ms. Belinda's bedroom. The dust cloth on the bed in the bedroom was covered by Roy himself.

Roy turned around with some disappointment. He wanted to go to the terrace to take a look, but when he turned around, he glanced at the showroom opposite.

Roy was surprised to see that there was an extra row of display shelves in Belinda's studio, which were filled with some new sculptures.

Roy strode in quickly, and a ball of sacred flame flew out of Roy's hand. Roy saw that the new sculptures on these display shelves were almost all works of the Wood Elves Kingdom.

As for the set of Roy's Growth Series sculptures opposite the display shelf, the last work had been frozen six years ago...

Roy still missed Ms. Belinda quite a bit.

She can always maintain an optimistic and positive attitude to face life. She is full of enthusiasm for life and always likes to record every bit of life with carvings.

Almost every new carving on the display shelf is full of Belinda's abundant emotions...

Looking at those sculptures, Roy felt that Ms. Belinda seemed to have a new life.

Only a new life can make her express the emotions of her works with some new feelings, which is completely Ms. Belinda's life.

Elves worship love, but never get married.

Elves will be together when they love each other, and will separate when they feel tired or other things happen, and will never cry or scold.

Most elves can live to 800 years old, but few elves can stay together for a lifetime...

Ms. Belinda probably thinks that Roy can be independent and slowly fade out of his life.

She took time to come back and left her new works in the showroom, obviously wanting to implicitly tell Roy that she has a new life.

Roy stood in the showroom for a long time, and his heart was very complicated...

In the darkness, two soft arms suddenly came up from behind Roy, and warm and fresh breath blew into his ears, and the familiar and long-lost fragrance rushed into his nose.

"Roy, did you miss me?"

The voice was still so sweet...

Roy held the two soft little hands, turned his head and saw the beautiful face.

Big eyes like purple grapes, a straight nose, and a slightly chubby chin, which made Moira always look a bit childish.

This is also the reason why Roy and Moira's relationship has never been able to get closer...

Even if according to the customs of the elves, Moira has become an adult, but Roy has never been able to get over the hurdle in his heart.

Roy couldn't help but peck on the soft cherry mouth...

The crystal clear pointed ears suddenly turned red, and the little face was also red.

"Ah, Roy!" Moira called softly.

Roy turned around and gave Moira a big hug. The two stared at each other, and they could clearly hear each other's heartbeats in the darkness.

The two heads naturally came together for a sweet kiss.

After a long time, Moira pushed away hard and gasped for air.

Roy and Moira sat on the terrace, back to back, resting on each other's shoulders, so they could see the bright night sky...

"Are Lady Gillian and Sabrina okay?" Roy asked.

Moira said: "Mom is still the same. My sister is training elf knights over at Sun Island Bay in the Partington plane. I haven't seen her for a long time."

Roy then remembered that Captain Tiprado wanted to train some gryphon cavalry, so he invited Sabrina over. However, Roy did not expect that Sabrina has not come back yet.

"Is Sabrina still over there at Sun Island Bay?"

Moira obviously didn't quite buy it, she wrinkled her delicate little nose and said, "I thought you knew it a long time ago!"

Roy could only explain patiently: "Well, Mu Lin didn't tell me about this, and Tiprado didn't say when the training would end..."

"How long can you stay in Castletown when you come back this time?" Moira asked with some anticipation.

"I have to leave tomorrow morning."

Moira pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "None of the elves are as busy as you!"

Roy explained in a low voice: "I have no choice but to make an appointment with someone else. This time I am going to customize a set of second-level magic pattern structures."

Then he asked: "By the way, when did Ms. Belinda come back?"

Moira thought for a moment and replied:

"About half a year ago, I came back and stayed for two weeks and then left. Belinda... there was a tall wood elf beside her."

She hesitated a little in the second half of the sentence, obviously worried that Roy wouldn't be able to accept it.

Roy could only force out a smile and asked Moira in a low voice: "What does that wood elf look like? Is he handsome?"

"Tall, big, and quite handsome... Oh, I don't think he is handsome at all!"

Moira immediately changed her tone mid-sentence...

The two sat on the terrace and kept chatting until Moira dozed off.

Moira rested her head on Roy's shoulder and fell asleep quickly.

Roy didn't move, sitting there alone looking at the stars in the night sky.

It wasn't until Ms. Gillian came back with the flatbed truck that Roy hugged the sleeping Moira and walked into the yard next door from the yard gate.

Ms. Gillian looked at the sleeping little daughter on Roy's back, and then looked at the half-elf in front of her: "Roy, when did you come back?"

"In the evening."

Ms. Jillian took Moira from Roy and said with emotion:

"Roy has really grown up. I heard that you joined the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion and did well in the army?"

Roy said modestly: "No, I'm always causing trouble!"

He bowed to Ms. Gillian and was about to walk back when he heard Ms. Gillian say behind Roy:

"Come back often when you have time, don't always let time slip away in longing..."

"Got it, Mrs. Gillian."
