Volume 2: Magic Tower Chapter 63: Meeting Evan Again

  I closed my eyes with a bitter smile, waiting for the arrival of death. This black pot is really unjustly borne by me, I didn't even touch Freya once, and yet I would die for her, what does this have to do with me? I really want to shout out loud: "I am innocent!" But everything was too late, I can only wait for the god of death to take me away.

  A sharp gust of wind swept past my face, almost at the tip of my nose, and I heard a metallic clanging sound, followed by two crisp ringing sounds. As I opened my eyes to look, two daggers had fallen to the ground. I, who had narrowly escaped death, turned around in confusion and saw Evan standing lazily to my left, not far away, saying to the spirits of Gelnor Village: "Is this the kind of despicable method that noble and elegant spirits use to deal with humans? I'll go ask your great Spirit King if such a spirit can be his subject?"

  All the villagers present looked ashamed, and the village chief of Gangler Village bowed to me and Evin, then said to Trin: "Trin, your actions have violated the basic morality of the Elf tribe. You have brought shame to our entire Elf tribe. I hereby declare that you are expelled from the Elf tribe and will no longer be a member of it. This matter will be reported to our Elf King. Now, leave!"

  Trillin glared at me with resentment and fled the village in disarray under the anger and disdain of the villagers. The village chief of Gankler Village turned around again, facing us and said: "We are deeply ashamed of this matter, Trillin has brought shame to our Elf tribe, I represent all Elves to apologize to you, please forgive the trouble caused by our tribesman's behavior."

  "I hastily said: 'This is the behavior of Trillin alone, he cannot represent the entire Elf tribe. I came here and got a lot of help from many kind elves, my heart is very grateful. Please don't worry about a fallen elf, no matter what race, there will be some losers, but also many kind people. I only have gratitude and respect for the Elf tribe forever, please don't feel troubled.'"

  Upon hearing my words, the village chief's expression improved somewhat. He nodded to us apologetically once again and then let the villagers disperse. As I saw the villagers leave, their eyes held kind smiles towards me.

  I slowly got back to my feet with Freya's help, and I noticed that there was a girl with no expression following behind Evan. I smiled at Evan and said: "You've found another one, you're really relentless."

  "I came to confirm that you were dead, but it turns out I coincidentally saved your life again."

  "Alright, alright, I owe you another one. But every time you show up, it's never good news. Last time, I almost lost my life trying to escape the Dark Elves' pursuit, luckily Freya's brother and Freya saved me. What is it this time?"

  Evan smiled evilly and said: "You know, assassins all have two daggers..."

  I sighed and said, "Big brother, which family's treasure have you set your eyes on this time? Is it gone again?"

  "This time you'll get a bigger share than me, we're going to an ancient ruin, who knows if there's magical materials you need there. I only need a dagger from inside, everything else is yours!" Evan tempted.

  "No way, I'm not going. I still have to learn magic from the spirits here." I shook my head in refusal. What a joke, if there was no danger, Evan would come find me? He's already run off himself.

  "You owe me, you won't be so ungrateful, okay? This time it's just a small trouble, but I promise you, absolutely no danger like last time." Ivan said with a mix of soft and hard tone.

  "I said, can't you find anyone else? Every time it has to be me who goes to send death?" I said irritably.

  "There's a magical mechanism over there, I only know one magician, who else can I look for?" Ivan said in a pleading tone.

  "Alright, alright, who made me owe you anyway? But not now, I still have to study magic here for a few more months. You wait for me at the edge of the forest in three months' time, and I'll use these few months to make some medicine, just in case."

  Evan saw that I agreed and immediately smiled with joy, saying: "No problem, no problem, I can also use this time to make some preparations."

  I finished speaking and looked at the girl covering her face beside Evan, saying: "Who is this? Why didn't you introduce us?"

  Evan turned his head and looked at the girl beside him, saying: "She's my sister, I'm telling you, don't have any ideas about her, she's my treasure."

  I rolled my eyes and said, "What are you talking about? You're making me sound like a pervert. When have I ever had any intentions towards other girls? Don't falsely accuse me, okay?"

  Evan thought for a moment and nodded, "It seems that I haven't heard of you having any bad habits in this regard, but I always feel that the girls around you seem to have a crush on you. Do you remember the female warrior Fenny who accompanied us on the escort mission last time? She actually said she liked you. It's just that whenever I put girls by your side, they don't seem so reliable anymore..." Evan gave a sly glance at Freya hiding behind me and smiled mischievously, "Is it the same this time too?"

  I was furious and shouted at him: "Get out! Get out! I don't have a friend like you! What a bad taste, really!"

  Yiwen burst out laughing and turned around to walk towards the outside of the village, the girl behind him turned back to give me a deep look before following after him.

  "What's all this about! What does it have to do with me!"

  The spirit that was passing by me let out a mournful wail and was startled, retreating two steps to the side before hastily fleeing in panic...

  Back in Soya's hut, the old elf gentleman deliberately called me over and looked at me for a long time before speaking: "Alick, according to elven customs, you have won the duel and will take Frey as your wife."

  I heard this sentence, almost fainted on the spot, and hurriedly said: "Soyare Grandpa, I am a foreigner, how can I marry the beautiful Freya as my wife? Your elves' lifespan is casually hundreds of years. If I become Freya's husband, won't I leave her alone in tens of years? Besides, Freya was just trying to get rid of Trillin's entanglement at that time, and she pulled me to be a backing board. She didn't really like me. Don't believe me, ask her."

  Soiare's gaze turned to Frey, and Frey fell silent for a moment, her face red as she said: "No, I am willing to be Yalick's wife..."
