Chapter 447 Prayer and Awakening
?The Elf King’s Court, a quiet place in the west of the city,
?This place is not far from the core tower of the Elisir family, and along the way Lis saw the guards of the Elisir family wearing golden light armor.
It seems that this area is also quite important to the Ilisel family.
??Li Si followed Cecil here. When he met the patrolling elf guards along the way, he had a tacit understanding and did not step forward to ask about the situation.
After all, the only human being who could stand in the elven court was Li Si.
?Originally, after obtaining the approval of the Pompeii patriarch, Li Si had the authority to enter the entire Elf Court except for a few areas.
Not to mention that Riccardo had already told them in advance, so there was no need to stop him.
Furthermore, they had also heard about Li Si and Cecile, and they couldn''t help but look forward to it.
?At this time, Cecile was no longer as lively and cheerful as when she was with Li Si in the past, and she followed Li Si obediently with a blushing face.
?Looking at Cecile like this, although she was very proactive before, she was a little shy when things came to a close.
?Li Si didn’t pay attention and held Cecile’s jade-like hand.
??Cecile was slightly startled and struggled a little. Seeing that Li Si didn''t let go, she acquiesced with a red face.
??Li Si felt relieved and walked towards the destination with Cecile with a smile.
After a while, an exquisite tree house appeared in front of Li Si and Cecile.
This tree house is quietly surrounded by a green oak tree, nestled on an ancient and huge tree trunk. The wooden walls are wrapped with green vines, like traces of time, as if it is a work of art carved by the God of Nature. .
Surrounding the tree house is a yard surrounded by flowers. The fresh and colorful flowers still have morning dew on them, swaying gently in the wind, exuding bursts of intoxicating fragrance, and shining brightly in the sun.
Lees once heard about her mother from Cecile.
??Her mother Ariana is a sun elf of the Elisir family, and she is married to her father Agli, an ordinary elf.
?This is quite rare in the Elf Kingdom, but fortunately, the Elisir family is relatively open-minded. At that time and now, she agreed to the union of her father and mother and gave her blessing.
??The only difference is that his father is the leader of the Elf Guard in the Emerald City, so he rarely meets his mother who lives in the Elf Court.
?However, the relationship between father and mother has always been very good, and Cecile has always grown up in the care of her father and mother.
??Li Si held Cecile’s hand, feeling a little nervous in the girl’s body, and said with a smile:
“It’s okay, don’t worry.”
Obviously I was meeting Cecile’s mother, but I don’t know why Cecile looked even more nervous.
??Cecile took a deep breath to calm down the emotion that came from nowhere.
??Cecile opened the door and walked into the tree house with Liz.
A warm atmosphere blows in your face. The layout in the room is simple yet elegant, and every detail reveals the taste and thoughts of the owner.
Soft cushions, exquisite tea sets, and books scattered in the corners all make people feel the warmth of home.
What’s more worth mentioning is that the room is full of traces of Cecile’s father and mother’s life. Hand-painted paintings hang on the walls, and the warm picture shows a self-portrait of a family of three; exquisite decorations and some old toys are placed on the table.
?These little details make the whole tree house full of love.
“Is it Cecile?”
A gentle female voice sounded, and a beautiful elf woman walked out of the room.
She has dazzling blond hair, like the sun shining on a golden wheat field, shining with a charming luster. Her blond hair fell softly on her shoulders, fluttering gently in the breeze from the window.
?Those golden eyes are deep and bright, but there is no indifference or arrogance, only full of love and tenderness. Li Si seemed to feel a warm current pouring into his heart, as if the whole world had become softer.
“Good morning, mother.”
“Li Si, this is my mother, Anliana.”
??Cécile saw her mother coming out and shouted quickly, then hesitated and didn''t know what to say.
?Ariana had a smile on her face and didn’t say much.
When she saw her daughter''s hand held by Li Si, she knew who the human in front of her was.
“Are you Li Si?”
“Cecile has talked to me many times?”
?Ariana was not surprised. Although it was very late last night, Elder Riccardo still made a special trip to see her to talk about the marriage between Cecile and Lis.
In this regard, Ariana had no intention of stopping the two of them.
After all, every time Cecile chatted with her, she would mention this human man named Li Si. She had long seen that her daughter had someone in mind.
When talking about Li Si, Ariana had already noticed the twinkle in her daughter''s eyes, but she just refrained from asking any more questions.
She believed that Cecile could make the right choice, and the fact that the marriage between Cecil and Lis had attracted the attention of Elder Riccardo and even the chief of Pompeii was enough to prove Lis''s excellence.
Furthermore, even in Ariana''s opinion now, Li Si''s appearance is quite outstanding.
Even among the Elisir family, it is considered quite outstanding.
“Nice to meet you, Ms. Ariana.”
?Lee Si let go of Cecile’s hand and saluted respectfully.
? No matter what, Li Si still respects the lady in front of him who is more like a sister than mother and daughter.
“I’ll go prepare some tea.”
??Cecile was still a little flustered and walked toward the kitchen in a hurry.
Mother comes here often, so she is very familiar with the layout here.
?Ariana did not stop Cecile, she looked at her daughter with loving and compassionate eyes, and then took it back.
“Cecile is a good girl, she has been like this since she was a child.”
“This is the first time I’ve seen her look so shy. She’s so cute.”
?Li Si sat across from Ariana and listened quietly to Ariana''s words without saying much.
“Since she was a child, she has lived more with me.”
“Although her father also loves her very much, after all, the Emerald City is far away and often cannot take care of her.”
?Ariana said gently, with a faint smile on her face.
Seems to be immersed in fond memories of the past.
“I understand.”
?Li Si nodded and said in a positive tone.
No matter what, his feelings for Cecile cannot be faked, and he is willing to be responsible for Cecile''s future.
“I know, Li Si.”
?Ariana looked at Li Si and said seriously:
“I have often heard about you from Elder Riccardo and Cecil, and know that you are a good boy.”
“As Cecile’s mother, I give her all my care.”
“She has been staying outside all her adult life, and I am a little worried.”
"But now it seems that I am worrying too much." "Li Si, I hope you can be responsible for Cecile, so that I can hand Cecile to you with confidence."
Ariana''s tone revealed solemnity. Li Si was a little surprised, but thinking that his marriage to Cecile was almost settled, it was indeed time.
“Ms. Ariana, please rest assured.”
“I will take good care of Cecile throughout her life!”
?Li Si solemnly promised, not knowing why his thoughts suddenly became confused.
It feels like I have forgotten something, but I can''t remember it.
“Li Si, of course I believe you.”
“I believe you and Cecile will be happy in the future.”
Ariana''s eyes were gentle, and she looked at Li Si as if she were her child.
“I have no objection to who Cecile’s partner is. I was really worried that if he chose a human, the longevity of the immortal species would make her face a tragic separation. That is something I don’t want Cecile to experience.”
“But it’s okay, Li Si, you are so good, I don’t think you have to worry about this in the future.”
??Li Si turned around slightly. With the guidance of Teacher Stephens, he was indeed confident of becoming a legendary warrior.
?At this moment, Cecile walked out of the kitchen with tea and snacks, and saw Li Si and her smiling mother sitting on the sofa.
Hurryly put down the things in his hands, packed them up, and sat next to Li Si.
?Ariana looked at Lis and Cecile, who were as good as golden girls, her eyes were full of emotion, and she said with emotion:
“My daughter, you are luckier than me and your father, so you should cherish her!”
“How could you and your father be so happy without your mother?”
“It would be great if Li Si and I could be like you and your father!”
"Um"
Ariana didn’t know what happened to her. She opened her mouth but didn’t know how to answer.
??Is what Cecil said true?
Why is she feeling so uncomfortable?
She and Cecile’s father are indeed very happy?
But why is it that there seems to be a gloomy feeling in my heart that I want to vomit but cannot?
This is her daughter, and she will obviously have the best happiness.
I will receive the blessings from my parents and the Elisir family.
Why?
Why is she so worried and sad?
Why do I feel as if I have to say something to Cecile, otherwise it will never be too late?
“Mother, what’s wrong with you?”
??Cecile felt a little shy about what she just said, but suddenly she noticed that her mother''s face was a little pale and her eyes were panicked.
“I me?”
?Ariana looked at her daughter, and there was something in her heart that she wanted to tell her daughter, but she couldn''t say it out.
For a moment, Ariana felt that the whole world was a little chaotic, the surrounding scene was distorted, and the colors in her field of vision were confused like a palette.
?Ariana felt as if something was trying desperately to prevent her from remembering.
The more oppression, the more uneasy Ariana felt.
“Mother, what’s wrong with you?”
??Cécile found that her mother, who had always been calm and dignified, suddenly grasped the armrest of the sofa tightly, her face turned pale, her whole body was shaking and she was sweating.
Seems like he is enduring some great pain.
?Although Cecile’s shout was quite loud, it was quite distant and faint in Ariana’s ears.
So far away that it seems to cross the distance between worlds, so far away that it seems to cross the boundary between death and life.
I have to remember!
Cecile can’t be like me, she is already very unfortunate!
She must get her own happiness!
??Although she didn’t know why such a voice appeared in her heart, Ariana’s mother’s intuition made her firmly believe in the premonition at this moment.
?Ariana was shaking all over, but her will remained as strong as iron.
She must do something, otherwise Cecile will face the most cruel thing.
At this time, Li Si stood up and was ready to step forward to help.
?At this time, he noticed something strange about Ariana.
?Ariana''s body began to fade, just like a poorly connected electric light began to flicker brightly and dimly.
Wait a minute, what is an electric light?
??Li Si stretched out his hand to help and suddenly froze in mid-air. The conflict in his thinking made him even forget what he was going to do.
?This weird sense of conflict has happened before, but Li Sidu subconsciously ignored the past.
But now, staying by Arianna''s side, the doubts and depression in his heart became more and more intense.
?Just when Li Si was confused, Ariana suddenly grabbed Li Si''s hand.
The power even surprised Li Si, how the elf''s tiny arms could explode with such power.
“Li Si, think of it quickly.”
“The Elf Royal Court has been destroyed! Destroyed by the Evil God of the Abyss!”
“I am dead, everyone in the city is dead, no one is spared!”
“You and Cecile still have a chance, you two still have a chance to escape!”
“Please, Li Si!”
“Take Cecile and run away, take my daughter and run away.”
Before he finished speaking, Li Si’s hand suddenly disappeared.
?Ariana''s figure has disappeared into the air, leaving only the stunned Cecile and Lis.
The Elf Royal Court has been destroyed, what happened?
Everyone died?
??Li Si froze on the spot, and instantly a huge sense of absurdity and conflict completely engulfed him.
He seemed to be about to remember something extremely important.
At this moment, a white illusory light curtain appeared in front of him.
—
Ding~
[You have received the legendary mission [Escape from the Royal Court of the Blood Elf]! ]
[Legendary mission: Escape from the Blood Elf Royal Court]
[Task requirements: The originally prosperous and powerful Elf Royal Court has completely fallen into bloodshed and destruction. Take Cecil and escape!
[Task reward: 1 billion experience points, special expertise (depending on the completion of the task)]
[Note: My daughter Cecile, you must be happy! —Arianna Elisir]—
??Li Si looked at the light curtain that suddenly appeared in front of him. In an instant, his thoughts seemed to have broken through an invisible film, and all the memories poured in.
He remembered.
He is Arcanist Li Si, he is a person with the legendary talent [Almighty], and he is a disciple of legendary Arcanist Stephens!
??The environment around Li Si shattered instantly, and he passed out in a flash of light.
When he woke up, the scene around him was completely different from before.
The peaceful city will never be seen again.
What appeared in front of Li Si was a completely destroyed city.
Like a cursed purgatory, the air is filled with the strong smell of blood. The thick and fishy smell is almost suffocating. On the street, blood was like a flooded river, up to the ankles, and every step felt like stepping into a sticky nightmare.
?The blood-red color dyed the whole world into a terrifying color, making it impossible to tell whether it was day or night.
The Elf Royal Court has really been completely destroyed!
?Li Si stood there blankly, with only this thought in his mind.
