After a brief exchange, the three left the prison.

"Sir Green, what are you going to do? Are you going to really help Belden undo the curse?"

"Yes. Do you know anything about curses?"

"The curse is a power that was banned by order of various kingdoms, only black magicians who are free from the law study this thing, and there are few records about the curse in history, so I'm not very clear about it, but ......"

"But ......?"

Andrew paused for a moment and continued.

"Do you remember the elf with silver hair and red pupils that I mentioned when you asked me about the elf hair color earlier? It was said that that elf was suffering from a curse to become that way, so I was thinking that if it was the elf race grand elder, maybe there was some knowledge about it, but ......"

Andrew paused in the middle of another sentence, causing the corners of Green's mouth to twitch.

"Can you finish your sentence at once?"

"Sorry ......" Andrew showed a flash of embarrassment and continued, "The Elves have been living in the Elven Forest for a long time and do not have much interaction with the outside world, so we cannot provide you with facilities from our side. Moreover, their faith does not seem to be that of the God of Light, so even if you have received the approval of the Lord God of Light, it may still take some effort to meet the Elven Grand Elder."

"So that's how it is."

Green nodded with a dazed expression, and finally asked a question again.

"Where is the location of the Elven Forest?"

"On a small island in the north of this continent, but separated by a fast-flowing river, without the help of powerful ice magicians, ordinary people can easily lose their lives."

"Thank you, I understand."

Afterwards, Green and Aloof both said goodbye to Andrew and walked towards the residence.

"Aloof, do you want to come with me? It should be safer to stay with me."

"No, I won't be of much help if I go." Aloof smiled, "And I haven't seen Father for a long time, Father has never wanted me to be forced to marry Brave, I'm sure Father must be very happy now."

"But what if you're attacked by the Demon Council? Who knows what they will send, what if it is a guy who is more dangerous than Belden?"

"It's okay, I still have Kyle and the others to protect me, it's not that far from Falcest, and besides, the main target of the Demon Church is definitely you and not me."

"Seems a bit reasonable but a bit wrong ...... Forget it, let it be, but to avoid some accidents, I'm going to leave my mark on you again."

"...... you, your mark!?"

Hearing Green's words, Aloof was startled, her little face suddenly tinged with red, Green didn't have to ask to know what Aloof must have been thinking again.

Green saw Aloof's expression and knew what she was thinking, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

It was the first time he had seen a princess who liked to make up H scenes so much, but in a way it might be good to think about it.

"Don't think about it, it's the same trick you used last time, give me your hand."

"Oh ......"

Soon, the 『SOS』 source qi engraving appeared on the back of Aloof's hand once again, and the mark flickered twice before disappearing on the back of Aloof's hand.

As long as there is this engraved seal, even if Aloof is in danger of his life Green can still arrive in time, just like the sin ambassador called Daxxis that he met last time.

Green nodded in satisfaction, and only then did he put his mind at ease.

"Take a day off today, and tomorrow you can go find Kyle and the others."

"Mhm."

In the half day that followed, Green once again experienced Aloof's miracle cooking skills, and Green also lived a normal life for the first time in a long time.

The next day, Green sat up from the closed-eye state, and then jumped downstairs, because he felt that several people of Kyle had come soon. After waiting downstairs for some time, he saw Kyle with a group of members of his personal guard, and came to Green's residence early in the morning.

Green talked briefly with him.

Not long after, Aloof located on the second floor also woke up from sleep, wearing a thin pajamas, the corners of the mouth still have a trace of saliva, that beautiful expression, do not know whether it is a nightmare or a beautiful dream, or ......H dream?

Aloof put on a small dress, a simple breakfast, then in front of the main door of the residence with Green for a short goodbye.

"Kyle you have to protect Aloof ah, otherwise ......"

"Do not worry, even if I have to fight for my life I will protect the princess! The kingdom of Zion has also sent some guards over, and the Lord Templar has also sent two paladins, with us in Aloof her highness is absolutely safe!"

Kyle said with conviction, the development of things this time he was very surprised, but also have a deep gratitude to Green, have come to this point, if the way back also happened in any accident would be too unjustified.

However, even if bad luck encounter dragon like danger again, Kyle even if it is desperate life will definitely not let her highness out of any accident.

Green heard Andrew sent two paladins, but also reassured a lot, the power of light of the paladin is still very powerful, I believe that with them in, the overall security will also be raised a notch.

"That's good. aloof, be careful on the road oh."

"Green you too, I'll be waiting for you in Farsight!"

"I'll be there for you soon."

After a few nostalgic glances at the home where they had lived for half a month, they waved goodbye and Aloof headed for the Kingdom of Falcest under the protection of many guards.

Green also saw Aloof off and set off on his journey to the Elven Forest alone.

Green still wanted to get rid of the potential threat of the Demon Church as soon as possible, their goal was to eliminate all those who were against the Demon King. The goal is to eliminate all the people who work against the Demon King, now, Guts has gone, Aloof has long been no longer related to Guts, as for the other forces will not be afraid of a Demon Church, it is clear that the Green acting alone is more likely to become the target.

But Green would not like them to send themselves to the door.

Green had a brief look at books on geography before moving forward, and from the map, if you want to go to the Elven Forest, you need to cross the Kingdom of Rald and a bunch of high mountains and rivers.

The north of the Zion Kingdom is the Kingdom of Rald, although Green wanted to meet a certain silver-haired loli and a certain red-haired lady, but finally gave up the idea, because the first priority is to solve the matter of the Demon Church is more important, and Rald's capital is not on Green's route.

Green did not use any transport, under the source of Qi, just run on foot is It is enough.

He crossed several mountains, and even though he didn't have the fastest speed, he still reached the very far north before noon.

Finally, after crossing an unknown number of mountains, a dense forest appeared in front of Green's eyes, only with land but separated by a very wide river.

Here is indeed as Andrew said, there is a very wide and unusually fast flowing river, the speed of the water, ordinary people who accidentally fell, I'm afraid will be killed on the spot by the force of the water.

If there are ice magicians present, you can use the power of ice to freeze the river, but it still takes a lot of effort.

Looking at the fierce water of the river, as if to say: "small, just you still want to fuck me? Dream on!"

Only this river met Green.

Green directly ignored the wide river and flew straight into the forest ahead.

And just shortly after Green entered the forest of elves, the elven warriors returning from their crusade against the Demon King also arrived. Their speed was indeed too slow compared to Green's, so much so that they left a day earlier and still didn't catch up with Green.

Green didn't pay attention to the scent from behind and still moved through the forest at a very fast pace.

Although it is also possible to fly directly from the sky, but that would be too boring, so Green also slowed down, while enjoying the scenery of the forest, while exploring around.

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the Elven Forest, there was a young elf girl with blonde hair and pointy ears weaving through the forest, carrying a bow behind her, looking like an archer, but the strange thing was that not a single arrow could be seen on her.

Suddenly, the elven maiden's eyes lit up, and she quickly concealed herself and crouched down on the branch of a large tree, looking at a behemoth in the distance.

"Great, finally I found one, as long as I defeat it, I'm not far from becoming a full-fledged warrior!"

The prey that the elf maiden was gazing at was named 『Norx』, also known as a forest giant. This is a creature that lives in the outskirts of the Elven Forest and spends ninety percent of its life sleeping, they are large and resemble giants, but have three eyes.

But when they sleep, the third eye does not close, but will constantly observe the surrounding situation, once found a difference will wake up, and this eye is also the weak point of the Norse.

The elf maiden found this Norex with a greenish black complexion and a body size of five or six meters, it just lay like that directly between several large trees, its third eye kept turning while snoring.

"This kind of creature that only sleeps, it's too easy to defeat it!"

The elf girl concentrated on pulling the bow string, only to see the original bow without any arrows, suddenly appeared a hot flame, followed by the flame condensed into the shape of an arrow, into a body wrapped with sparks of flame arrow was pulled in the hands of the girl.

The elven maiden concentrated on aiming at the third eye of Nolks, a winning smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, then after releasing it, she shot the elemental arrow that contained the power of fire out violently.

"Boom!"

The fire power in the elemental arrow instantly exploded out, giving a heavy blow to Nolks, and at the same time waking up the sleeping Nolks from her slumber.

"Roar!!!"

The forest resounded with the roar of Norex, and the surrounding small animals fled at the sound.

When the elf maiden saw this, she showed a smug smile, against this kind of monster that manipulates the power of wood, flame is the best weapon, and also directly attacked on its weak point, surely it can be easily defeated.

So the elf maiden once again shot several elemental arrows from her hand, lighting up a great fire around the Norex, which jumped up in panic in the flames, hissing more and more terrifyingly, and the elf maiden became more and more complacent.

"Suffer death, giant of the forest!"

Finally, the elf maiden saw that the time was ripe, then she leapt down high from the branch, and several flaming arrows instantly appeared on the bowstring, and fired them directly in the air, burning the entire body of Norrx.

Seeing this the elf maiden showed a smug smile, but just then she suddenly found the Norrx in front of her was actually burning with flames coming towards her.

And at this moment there is no damage on the third eye what you are called the weak point , even after a few turns, it starts to stare at the elf girl.
