Chapter 129: Back Empty-Handed

"Wh, what?"

"Why did Ely just leave? Did something happen? Why didn't she wait for a response from us, me?" Rosie threw Evelyn a few questions.

"That's not a problem. Ely just has personal matters that need to be handled immediately." Evelyn shrugged her shoulders slightly.

"Just alone?"

"Ely said she could handle it herself. Neither Ella nor I was allowed to come with her. Why are you so worried, President Rosie? Ely will be back at dusk." Evelyn was clueless.

Even though she was quite clingy, that didn't mean she had to go wherever Elysia went, right? If Evelyn did that, Elysia would be annoyed.

"Is that so? I wish good things always with her. However, why did she go south? Also, why didn't she wait for me to speak? She immediately disappeared into the crowd." Rosie clasped her hand together as if she was praying.

"Maybe she has some personal secret matter? Something that comes up suddenly? Or something she can do on her own, she doesn't want to bother you or us. Maybe Elysia just wants to spend some time alone. We didn't know, but don't worry too much, Rosie. Well, we can see her again tomorrow." Raylee tried to calm the worried student council president.

"Huh? Didn't you just meet Ely yesterday? Why do you seem to know very well about her? Raylee... Are you, maybe stalking her?" Rosie smiled mischievously with suspicious eyes.

"What kind of despicable act is that? I'm not going down there for that, even if you ask me with a plea." Raylee scratched the back of his head awkwardly.

"Oho-ho~ Just guessing?"

"Hahaha... Yes, just guessing." Raylee nodded his head.

Actually, he also wanted to confirm something about Elysia, similar but not the same as Rosie. However, the girl was adept at dodging, distracting, and escaping while playing with her words.

Raylee was suspicious about Elysia having involvement with the Western Region's royal family... Or perhaps a direct descendant of the missing royal family.

The royal family of the Xeafinata Kingdom was scattered all over the place, and they fell into a vague status with a disguised identity.

Raylee knew one student who had been in a state like Elysia. Still, that person was already under his protection in secret. The main reason he was playing the role of an ordinary person in the academy.

Beside them, Brian looked at Raylee with some displeasure. He sighed and then whispered to David next to him. "Hey, David, do you think Senior Raylee is acting unnaturally? He pays too much attention to Miss Elysia. Since yesterday, and now. He's only known her for a day..."

"Yes, boss. He is acting unnaturally for someone who has only known her for one day. Perhaps, Senior Raylee was smitten? Ah, my fault, maybe he was already stunned by Miss Elysia in the first meeting?" David covered his mouth and whispered softly.

"Humph! As I thought, I have to monitor him for the common good." Brian snorted and then straightened himself.

"Ah!" Ella dropped her fist into the palm of her other hand. She just remembered something she wanted to say.

"What's the matter, Ella?" Evelyn looked sideways.

"I forgot to tell Ely something. Tomorrow is the weekend. Tomorrow is the day I serve as Priest at the cathedral. I want to invite you and Ely tomorrow morning."

"Sure, she'll be back at dusk. You can tell her. For now, let's go to the dorm room. We'll wait for Ely there before going to your private area. How about that? I also want to try making pi, um pizz something?" Evelyn played with her hair. She tried to remember the name of the food this morning.

"That's pizza, Eve. Okay, let's go to the dorm room." Ella nodded her head in agreement.

"Pizza? What is it? A meal?" Rosie joined in with curiosity.

"Yes, that's the name of a food, Ely's idea. Another kind of bread. Very tasty and delicious." Evelyn answered the curious.

"Can I come too? I also want to taste that food called pizza."

"Better to wait for Ely's presence. How about tomorrow you ask her permission, President Rosie? We're not very good at pizza making yet. We want to try without Ely's help, right, Eve?" Ella refused gently and then patted Evelyn's arm for help.

"Un, you have to ask Ely's permission first. We are planning great things, you can join us later hehe... See you again, everyone. Beautiful day for all of us." Evelyn waved her hand like a royal waving, then she left with Ella after the latter said her goodbye.

The others also left for their own business. Uniquely, after Elysia was not there, they were all no longer a group that went together. They split into four groups with their respective goals to spend the rest of the day.

Meanwhile, in Rosemoor City, a city near the border between the western and southern regions, a grown man and a girl had just entered the town from their brief exploration.

Dylan and Sylvia had just returned from exploring the lake they visited last night to find any lost history clues. Unfortunately, they didn't get anything since early morning until they came back here.

"Father, is it true, all historical relics from lost history are so rare? We go home empty-handed even though you have, ah never mind..." Sylvia could not explain what her father did to the lake to find clues or any relics.

"It is sporadic, especially historical relics in the form of ancient writings. So far, I have only found this one book by chance. The others are just inscriptions on ancient rocks, epigraphs, inscriptions, or any other things in some ancient ruins." Dylan shook his head with a sigh. He felt unlucky, not as lucky as the human girl named Ais.

"Then why are you so obsessed with anything that may be related to lost history? Not to mention that book, the book with only the first page to read."

"It's complicated and difficult to explain. When you reach a certain level, and it will be challenging to advance, you will focus on something else. All parties all over the world are actually researching lost history as well. They want to know what happened far away in the past." Dylan wasn't afraid to answer in his voice. He had already put up an invisible sound barrier as they walked through the city.

"Hmm... Wouldn't it be better if we all worked together in solving these mysteries and riddles?" Sylvia tilted her head slightly.

"That's... Impossible. Not because of all the strife between races, we are all enemies of each other. Don't ask why. It's clearly because of power and strength. It looks quite peaceful now, but that's just the facade when the reality isn't like that." Dylan immediately interrupted when his daughter was about to ask why.

"Em, well... Everyone is hostile and has a grudge because other races can be a source of energy to boost their strength. I know, truce only applies to large-scale battles, but the medium or small scale battles are still common." Sylvia lowered her head.

"We don't have a truce against the Human Race."

"Yes... Just like the Beast Race with the Beastkin Race, and the Elves Race with the Dwarf Race... It's just that the Devil Race with the Human Race is the worst of the others... the Aquatic Race is the most peaceful and separates itself from the chaos." Sylvia sighed and then shrugged her shoulders. She was helpless whenever this topic was brought up.

"You are wrong, my daughter. The Aquatic Race is the worst, not the most peaceful."

"Eh? Was I wrong about the Aquatic Race? Then what is right about them, father?" Sylvia looked at her father. She opened her eyes wide as if in surprise.

"They are the most violent and brutal than the other races. In contrast to the creatures on the land who strongly reject the slaughter of their own race... The creatures of the sea in the name of the Aquatic Race, they all have no qualms about slaughtering their own race from another group or tribe for the harvest of resources." Dylan casually replied as if it was none of his business.

"What? They're more 'meanie' than you, father? We're devils, but they're even more 'evil' than devils... Vile creatures, I mistook them, humph!" Sylvia snorted and pouted. All this time, she was a little jealous of Aquatic Race, and now she didn't want to know about them anymore.

Dylan didn't answer anymore, he was a Devil Emperor who was strong and cruel, and he was only put in the 'meanie' category by his own daughter. However, he couldn't blame his daughter because Sylvia lived a sheltered life, and she was fully protected by him.

Even though Dylan knew his daughter was no stranger to blood and killing, it was far from being 'evil' that she was talking about. He would be surprised if his daughter was able to kill without guilt. Like killing hundreds of humans as if they were nothing but insects, then returned home with a cheerful smile.

Unfortunately, he had no idea about his daughter's accomplishment last week. There were lots of things Dylan didn't know about his own daughter.
