I raise elves in Florian

Chapter 114 Shutark

After the four left the ruins left by Flame, the roots of the great tree enveloped the ruins once again.

The four of them came to the main road and happened to meet a horse-drawn carriage. After discussing with the driver, they gave him some money for the journey and he took them to the nearest town.

As soon as Frilian sat in the carriage, her eyelids seemed to be fighting, opening and closing repeatedly. Frilian's little head was also nodding, and then she slowly fell asleep in Shi Yichen's arms.

"She's asleep."

Philon looked at Frilian, who was asleep in Shi Yichen's arms, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Shi Yichen looked tenderly at Frilian in his arms and pulled her closer to him.

"How careless."

Aize shook his head helplessly as he looked at Frillie's appearance.

"It's so cold... I don't want to go..."

Frillie, nestled in Shi Yichen's arms, suddenly started talking in her sleep.

"Yes, yes, we're not going."

Shi Yichen gently stroked Frilian's back, comforting her as she slept.

"I'm having a nightmare."

Seeing the fearful expression on Florian's face, Philon knew that Florian was having a nightmare.

Is it that cold near the Demon King's castle?

Philon asked Aize with a puzzled look.

"After all, Endai, where the Demon King's castle is located, is at the northernmost point of the continent and the coldest place on the entire continent, and many things have happened there."

Aize explained to Philon that the place was too cold, and even as the strongest human warrior, he couldn't stay there for long. As for what happened, Aize didn't tell Philon.

"many……?"

Philon looked at Aize with a puzzled expression.

Ah, so many.

Aize nodded.

"This is all out of my and Haita's selfish motives, I hope you won't blame us."

Aize looked at Shi Hou, who was holding Frilian.

Chen said that he knew how much Shi Yichen and Frilian loved each other, but it was their own selfish reason for letting Frilian meet Simmel as Simmel's friends.

"No, because Simmel is worth it."

Shi Yichen shook her head. She didn't blame them for anything. In fact, she admired Simmel very much. If she hadn't appeared, Frilian might have really fallen for Simmel. That was part of Simmel's charm.

"Yeah."

Aize nodded silently.

Shi Yichen wouldn't get angry over this. Xinmeier was their companion, and even if Aize didn't say anything, they would still go to see Xinmeier.

The place where souls rest in peace was already on Shi Yichen's travel itinerary. She wanted to take Frilian to meet both sets of parents as his wife, and also to visit Simmel and Haita.

Looking at Frilian in Shi Yichen's arms, Aize's gaze turned to Philon beside him.

"Philen, is Frilian a good teacher?"

Aize looked at Philon and asked.

"How should I put it? I'm not really sure either. I'm just being led by the nose by her on this journey of blindly pursuing magic."

But Lady Frillien was actually very kind to me, and Lord Shi Yichen had always taken care of me. It's just that Lady Frillien only took me as her apprentice because of a promise she made to Mr. Haita.

Philon looked at Frilian sleeping in Shi Yichen's arms, her eyes filled with tenderness. What she needed to do now was to make sure Frilian didn't regret taking her as her apprentice. She wanted to become the top magician on the continent, which was also what Haita wanted to see.

"Really."

Aize listened quietly as Philon recounted her perspective on Frilian.

"However, Lady Frilian is truly an incredible person."

Ever since the journey began, Lady Frillian has been giving me a present on my birthday, even though she usually seems completely uninterested.

I really don't know what she was thinking, it's unbelievable.

Recalling Frillie's incredible actions, Philon couldn't help but laugh, because they were truly unbelievable.

Frillie, who initially seemed indifferent to everything except Shi Yichen, suddenly started wanting to understand her, leaving Philon in disbelief.

“Philen, Frilian is a good teacher.”

Listening to Philon's story reminded Aize of the night they celebrated in the capital eighty years ago.

Frillian once said that she would not take on apprentices because it would be a waste of time, and even if she taught them a lot of things, she would die soon afterward.

However, it seems that Frillie has changed her mind.

"You're right."

Philon looked at Frilian tenderly. Frilian was indeed a good teacher, but they needed some time to get to know each other.

Whether it was a misperception or not, the corners of Frillie's mouth slightly turned up as she slept in Shi Yichen's arms.

…………

a few days later.

"Are you really not coming with us? Our team needs a forward."

Frilian looked at Aize standing at the door and asked, "They're supposed to be going to see Simmel and Haita on this trip, but Aize doesn't want to go."

"Yes, I've said it before, I'm already a burden. You think Yi Chen alone is enough for the team?"

Aize stroked his beard and said to Frilian, "There's nothing I can do. I'm old now, and the muscles in my hands have withered. I'm no longer the strongest human warrior I used to be."

He could have gone along if it were somewhere else, but this time the destination was the Demon King's Castle, and after thinking about it, he decided against it. In his current state, he was no match for those powerful demons.

"As you know, Yichen sometimes has to leave for a period of time, so the team needs to find another vanguard."

Aize's firm answer made Frilian give up the idea of ​​going to Aize, but she still needed to find a vanguard, in case Shi Yichen left one day and there was no one to act as a meat shield in front.

“If you need a vanguard, I have someone to recommend. There’s a village along the Rigel Canyon, and there’s a warrior in the village named Shutark. Take him with you when you go into the northern kingdoms; he’s my apprentice.”

After thinking for a moment, Aize told Frilian that his decision to take in Hugh Tark was not a spur-of-the-moment thing, but rather a premeditated plan. His idea was the same as Haita's: to cultivate a successor for himself and have them stay by Frilian's side.

"Shutark? That name sounds familiar."

As Shi Yichen listened to Aize and Frilian's conversation, he suddenly heard a familiar name.

"Aize, is that brat you're talking about someone who ran away from the Warriors' Village?"

Shi Yichen asked Aize, because she was in the Warrior's Village back then, and she remembered that this kid had an older brother named Hugh Tortz, who was the strongest warrior in the Warrior's Village.

However, she didn't know what happened after the Warriors' Village.
