ps: Damn Unicom...... Can't you keep the line? I'm sorry, I'm sorry to update it back at 10:30 a.m., sorry.

"That guy over there!

Suddenly there was a shout from behind, and Roland stopped, curiously turning to look at the little trembling child's voice.

Black shirts, blue shorts, cross-body suspenders—the standard uniform of the children's regiment, looks quite spirited. The owner of the uniform is also very good-looking, with short bright blonde hair neatly trimmed, facial features combined into a thin, gentle face, and watery lake-blue eyes that remind people of the color of the sky. Because of nervousness, the mouth that had just shouted was still slightly open.

The appearance of the children's group members pointing at Roland should have reminded onlookers of a child with a bad upbringing, or a commando squad leader who blows a whistle in his mouth to correct the violation. But no matter how much the little guy puts on a big pose, he can't make people feel how domineering he is, and even children like Roland and Caspar, who have a little social experience, can see that the little guy is reluctant to put on a show of power.

"You called me?"

Roland scratched the back of his head, he couldn't remember that he had been in contact with elves outside the convoy and council, especially elves of the same age. I haven't done anything to make people jealous of my tour since the morning, so what can this cute guy like a hamster in a military uniform do to find himself?

"Yes! That's you!"

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the dry throat squeezed out the sound. Kurt Parsifal stole a glance behind him, Ehrlich, Kohler, and Bernard were snickering and looking at this side, and the tourists around them also stopped and watched curiously, their faces reddened even more from the urge of nervousness.

I really damn it! I would have stayed at home and read a book if I had known! Now I am being forced to do this kind of thing that only uneducated children can do by these bad guys in the name of testing their guts, I really don't know why I would commit such stupidity?

Cursing his bad luck and stupidity, Parsifal endured the pressure of crying and put his companions' bad ideas into action.

"You are obviously a human, why did you become the adopted son of the archon?!"

The whispers disappeared at once. Look away from Parsifal. The elves' puzzled, surprised, piercing gazes were all fixed on Roland's frozen face.

Whether they care about current affairs or gossip, the elves really want to know that they are following the Archon at the celebration of Gramm's return that day. Appears on the balcony of the Council Building. It was announced that he was the adopted son of the consul, why would it be this human boy?

At that time, all the citizens were so immersed in the great excitement of welcoming a glorious return that no one thought to question the decision. After a long day's rest, the enthusiasm recedes slightly from the body. Doubts began to rise again.

The elves pondered the question, but no guess could be a consensus answer.

In this case, the simplest and most direct way is to ask Li Lin himself.

On the first day of each week, on a seven-day cycle, the Archon receives complaints and questions from citizens. So as to solve some municipal livelihood problems. If the whistleblower is involved, it is also allowed to be raised at the hearing, and after the archon receives the whistleblower, the next step is Stasi's business.

Tomorrow, a bunch of citizens had agreed to ask Li Lin why they wanted to adopt a human child. If you are a transcendent archon and are worried about the issue of heirs, you can raise it. Elven parents will definitely sacrifice their children without thinking about it, and be proud of it. It is possible to adopt a human child...... I can't talk about any resentment towards children, but everyone has a pimple in their hearts.

Far from kindness. It was not pure malice, and the slightly prejudiced and suspicious gaze pierced Roland's heart for a while.

Why did Li Lin adopt him?

Roland wants to figure out this issue more than anyone else, but every time this issue is involved, Li Lin either bypasses the topic, or slyly lets Roland figure it out by himself. After a few consecutive times, Roland couldn't find any reliable answers, and gradually began to forget. Now the question has been raised again.

"You're a human, aren't you? Humans are cunning and cunning guys who specialize in stabbing knives in the back!How can such a scoundrel be qualified to be the adopted son of His Excellency the Consul?!"

Three boys, also wearing children's regiment uniforms, joined in. Unlike Parsifal, who has already revealed discomfort and embarrassment, their rebuke is from the bottom of their hearts.

Children are often intolerant and impulsive, and their worldview is simply either/or. So despite not being racist, the views of these elf kids tend to be racist. Then, like a bad boy everywhere, he rejects the guy he doesn't like, ridicules, insults the other person, and sometimes punches and kicks each other.

Roland is not a cowardly child who is bullied, but he is not a fool who is easily provoked, while clenching his fists, his eyes are staring at the three children without giving in.

It's become a battlefield - Roland knows it.

It's not just a clash between a few bad boys and him, it's a contest between him and Alfheim's dominant prejudice against humanity. Once he took a step back, he could no longer hold his head up.

"I don't know why. ”

Taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling it, Roland scratched his head.

"I was completely confused, so I was adopted by him. ”

"No...... Don't know?"

As if he could not understand Roland's elven language, Parsifal repeated this unexpected phrase, and the intention of fleeing faded, and his foolish curiosity did wander his eyes for the first time.

"But, I have been adopted, accepted by him, and the elves have been fed and cared for, which is a fact that cannot be changed. ”

The autumn sun shone on Roland, probably because of the angle and the change of light, and the pupils of the same color as the amethyst shone with a golden glow, and the light and eyes attracted Parsifal deeply.

"So, no matter how you think about it, you can't figure out why you were adopted, but at least you have to find a way to repay the favor you owe, and then you can do what you can do more first--he ...... That's what the consuls taught me. ”

It is a pair of beautiful, but unassumable firm eyes that cannot be associated with fragility, and only those who give in to trouble and difficulties will not be lightly succumbed. Parsifal stared almost enviously, except for the three troublemakers, and the sights of the surrounding tourists were no longer so piercing.

Roland's fist loosened slightly, and his hanging heart lowered slightly.

Roland was not good at falsifying in the first place, and he also noticed that Li Lin and Brunhill were watching from a distance, and let him deal with it on his own. Roland simply said what he knew and what he could think of, and he instinctively felt that it was more appropriate to do so than to improvise lies.

Judging by the elves' reactions, his instincts were right.
