Chapter 885 - An Unexpected Guest
Chapter 885
(Unedited)
..
Loombwark Diggingsons and her mother are currently with others who are working hard inside the factory. As dwarves they are proficient in minerals and stones hence they decided to help with the materials.
While busy doing their work, both mother and child were called by Axle Long. As the two went to the upper deck of the ship, they noticed a strange atmosphere.
When Axle Long noticed the two, he immediately called them out.
"Loom here!"
Loom walked towards Axle Long and then before she could ask him, her eyes caught the sight of a familiar figure below the ship.
When her eyes landed on that familiar handsome young-looking man, her eyebrows immediately quivered. How could she not know who that guy is? It has been a few months when the both of them were together in the forest sharing those beautiful memories.
Suddenly as if sensing that someone is looking at him, that guy turned his head towards the direction of Loom. And when their eyes met, a bright smile immediately appears on his handsome face.
"Loom!"
"Olley!"
The two of them subconsciously said as Loom could not hold herself and suddenly jumps from the ship's deck.
Her action shocked everyone. The new flying ship is really high and if one fell from the top deck, they would surely suffer gravely.
And the small woman actually jumps without hesitation.
Olley El'fore became also afraid upon seeing this scene. How could he let the woman that he loves suffer? Without hesitation, he began chanting and then sent out a wind spell towards Loom. But as soon as he did so, a powerful rebounding shock reflected the wind spell towards himself and sent him flying back to the ground.
But his eyes caught Loom as suddenly a strange thing happened before she would fall to the ground. Without chanting any spells her body produces strange energy which made her fall lighten until she safely landed on the ground.
"Olley!" Loom shouted as she ran towards the outer part of the barrier where the elves are talking with Vilma Song and Im Jae.
She jumps in the arms of the young man excitedly which caught everyone in surprise.
When some of the elders in the elven crowd saw this scene, they all frowned. The small woman is not a dwarf and not an elf either. So she must be a Halfling. And these old elves are very traditional and would not condone the relationship between a pure elf and a Halfling, so they are showing dissatisfaction in their faces.
Suddenly the hands of Olley El'fore landed on Loom's belly and slowly caressed it.
"Loom.. I am happy that you survive. It was all my fault. If only I was decisive enough and has taken you to the Elven kingdom, then you would not have faced danger.. I'm sorry.." Olley said as he carefully caressed her head.
Suddenly 2 female voices interrupted the two. One is a slightly deep female voice, and the other is with a touch of an ethereal tone.
"What is the meaning of this?"
Two women walk towards them. One is a tall one about 1.72 meters and the other one is short at 1.21 meters. The tall one wears a flowing satin gown with silver and gold bangles on her body, while the small one wears a cultivator robe. The tall one has freely flowing hair that seems to float freely in the air as she walks, while the short one has her hair tied in a ponytail making her look heroic.
"Mother.."
"Mom.."
Loom and Olley were awoken in their fantasies when they heard and saw the two women walking towards them.
Warkita is glaring at the woman in front of her. Although she did not know who that woman is, but seeing the elves, her heart could not help but feel angry at this moment. How could she not? The elves are the reason why she and her husband could not be together.
Her husband is a normal elf but was condemned by these bastards because he decided to be with her, a dwarf. So how could she have a good feeling towards them?
The friction between the two women is turning the atmosphere awkward. And this is supported by the glares from those white-haired elves that are looking with displeasure at Olley El'fore.
How could they not be displeased? Olley is a promising youth in the elven kingdom. At the young age of 80, he is already an 8th level Archmage and a member of the Young Council of elves. His promising future made him one of the elites and the most promising elven bachelors in the kingdom which many families are eyeing to be their son-in-law.
But now a dirty Halfling has taken him for herself? How could this sit well in the eyes of the old-fashioned elves?
Right at this moment, a tall white-haired elf alighted from one of the carriages and walked towards the couple.
"Olley, what is the meaning of this?" the elf asked.
"3rd elder.. I.. Sigh.. The reason I wanted to visit the human town is because of Loom. It is my selfish intent to find her no matter what. That is the reason why I ask that I go alone.. But you guys still followed me here, so.." Olley said seemingly guilty of what is happening.
He knew that he has caused trouble, but how could he go against his feelings. For many days and nights, he tried to suppress this feeling of loneliness until he could not take it anymore and decided to visit the secret dwarven kingdom.
But who would have known that he would discover that right as they arrive, the party of Loom has already left? And so he wanted to go alone, but his mother wanted to go with him and also wanted to visit the humans.
After gathering enough information from the dwarves, the elves are amazed by the truth that a human actually helped the dwarves. And what amazed them the most is the trade the two parties did. Technology is not a forte of the elves and they are not interested in the other things except the rifle that uses powerful compressed mana as a projectile.
Hence they decided to visit the humans to learn of it and maybe could try to trade with them.
And upon arriving in this place, they realized that the human and his group is really not just some weak and simple human. The massive ship has already astonished them, but what astonished them the most is the strong defensive barrier covering the ship.
But then this trouble has surface right in front of their eyes.
"Hmm.. This small.. Halfling is with a child.. about.. 2 months already.. Strange.." the 3rd elder said as he scanned the body of Loom.historical
"Why is the child in your belly enveloped with strong energy.. it's.. it's as if the child is a pure elf.." the 3rd elder muttered.
The elven 3rd elder is the leader of this expedition. He is the cousin of Olley El'fore's mother and has decided to visit the dwarf upon hearing the trouble that the Scavengers are causing. But upon seeing that everything is fine, the group decided to visit that human who defended the dwarves because of the weapon.
In actual truth, the 3rd elder is someone who does not care about the old tradition of the elves. As a member of the El'fore family and an elder at that, he should have been strict in the family laws. But at his age, he found them boring and too constricting. Hence, he likes to go around and explore the land.
He had seen many things in this land and has known many. He has a lot of human friends and companions from other races; hence he actually did not care anything about the relationship between the young Olley and the Halfling.
But of course, as an elder, he has to show some face.
"3rd elder, I.." Olley wanted to say something but the 3rd elder raised his hand to stop him.
"Cousin.. what should we do? My son.. he.. he has broken the family law." Olley's mother said then suddenly her eyes became sharp and glared at Loom.
"It's because of you.. you seduced my son!" she shouted as her hand turned into claws wanting to attack Loom.
Her target is actually Loom's stomach. If the baby is gone, then she could take her son without their bloodline getting muddled because of a Halfling.
But how could Warkita let her daughter be hurt? With a flash, she suddenly appears in front blocking the path of the elven woman.
Warkita is wearing the exoskeleton while working in the material segregation inside the ship. This would make her job easier. So with that, her movement became fast.
Then without hesitation, she immediately grabs her handgun on her side and pointed it towards the tall elven woman.
"Stop!" before the two could clash, both their children immediately stopped them.
