Arcane splendor begins with the throne

Chapter 55 Tracking
"Let's go, if you don't go, it will be too late."

Under the cold night, Brian looked at the elf girl beside him. The flickering fire light shone on her red cheeks, which were full of sadness.

After Brian left a word, he ignored her.

The cold wind made him involuntarily tighten the cloak on his body, put on the hood, fasten it, and turned to leave.

From the beginning to the end, he never asked what the three dead elves were related to her.

Because he had already read some special meaning from the other party's eyes looking at the corpse of a dilapidated female elf.

Although the other party's real age is likely to be twice as much as his own, in the society of elves, he is actually about the same as a twelve or thirteen-year-old child.

This made him marvel at the strong heart of the other party. As a half-elf who has lived in the holy land of elves for more than ten years, Brian knows what the elves there face every day. Most elves can hone a strong will.

If they can really put aside their hatred and prejudice against the human kingdom, this will indeed be a commendable race.

Toviel glanced reluctantly at the burned ashes on the ground, as well as the bright fire that had not been extinguished, then turned and followed Brian's footsteps.

"Thank you, Brian of Tigrila." Toviel, who caught up with Brian, said sincerely.

There is a hint of tenderness in her beautiful voice, which makes people feel a sense of care.

Hearing the elf girl's sincere thanks, Brian paused, turned around slowly, and looked at her softly with his sharp eyes hidden in the hood.

Her long black hair was swaying with green light, and it swayed with the wind. Under the firelight behind her, her pale cheeks seemed to reflect blue light, and her delicate body trembled like leaves in the breeze.

Brian sighed in his heart, stretched out his hand to caress her icy cheek, and gently wiped away a trail of tears for her.

"You have to remember that as an elf ranger living in the wild forest, no matter what accidents we encounter, we must learn to maintain our self-balance. Even in the face of night, storm, hunger and frustration, we must be like trees and animals. Same, tenacious and tenacious."

He stroked her hair, Toviel didn't dodge, just bit her lower lip, and looked down at the rotten leaves on the ground, "Because as long as we are alive, there will be hope in life, among all things, hope is the most beautiful , the most beautiful thing, never fades."

Seeing that the half-elf who always put indifference on his face showed rare tenderness towards him, Toviel couldn't help feeling warm.

She seemed to feel that she had received a kind of guidance in the dark, which made her quickly cheer up from the grief and become stronger.

She understood that this was the life creed instilled in her by the half-elf who claimed to be a Tigrila in front of her.

Let her know that no matter when and where, whatever difficulties and accidents you face, you must have hope and be as tenacious as the trees and animals in the forest.

Suddenly, after thinking clearly, the distracting thoughts in her heart began to disappear and she became peaceful and calm, as if her soul had found its final support and home.

Toviel slowly raised her head, her aqua blue eyes glowing with golden light, stared at Bryan's impressive face, and showed him a strong smile.

For some reason, for a moment, Toviel wanted to lean in his arms gently, just quietly feel the warmth without warning, but she was planning to put her thoughts into action
"If you figure it out, let's go!"

Brian once again turned into expressionless indifference, he left a sentence, and walked directly towards the depths of the forest along the trail left by the ogre wizard on the ground.

Killing the warg was just incidental to him. His real purpose was actually this ogre wizard.

The female ranger Tovel hesitated, feeling the chill of the night. Like Brian, she tied on the forest-colored cloak and put on the hood. Then she clenched her longbow, maintaining a focused and vigilant look. Follow closely behind him.

Soon, as the two moved forward cautiously, they heard the low-pitched roars of hunters coming from the dilapidated camp behind them, and later the roars of them vying for corpses.

In this way, I don't know how long it has passed. Under the gradually thickening night, Brian's eyesight has been seriously affected, and his efficiency in finding the ogre's traces began to become difficult.

In the end, he finally stopped and looked at Toviel behind him, "It's up to you to look for it."

Although he had also received strict ranger training in the holy land of elves, he had no idea of ​​becoming a ranger at that time, so he almost focused his energy on elf sword dancing skills.

Naturally, no professional ranger is proficient in the means of tracking prey.

"Are you chasing the ogre?" Toviel froze for a moment, and said.

She originally thought that Brian was leading her to find a campsite to sleep in. It wasn't until she noticed that the speed of the other party gradually began to decrease, and she also made a look of searching carefully, that she realized the real intention of the other party.

"That's right." Brian nodded slightly, he felt that there was nothing to hide.

"We...why are we trying so hard to find the ogre? It's already..." Toviel looked around, hesitated for a long time, and then spoke.

Although her companion's death made her very sad, it didn't mean that she would impulsively kill her own life.

She has been traveling in the Blackman Forest all the year round, and she is well aware of the danger of this wild forest.

Especially in the middle of the night when you can't see your fingers, even a ranger like her, who knows the surrounding terrain clearly, dare not wander around at night.

But Brian's approach made her very puzzled. It turned out that he was just tracking down a powerful ogre.

Although the battle with the wolf pack just now made her understand that Brian is not only a warrior with superb sword skills.At the same time, she is also a mysterious wizard, but choosing to track ogres at night is still an extremely dangerous move in her opinion.

After all, this ogre directly killed three companions with similar strength to himself. They were all rangers who were walking on the ground in the forest. In this way, they were killed directly without even a chance to escape.

This shows how powerful this ogre is.

"This..." Brian was really stumped by the other party's question. Naturally, he would not tell the female ranger in front of him that he was an ogre-killing wizard in order to gain experience points and magic energy.

After a little thought, Brian said solemnly, "Don't you know? Your three companions were killed by ogres. Don't you want to avenge them?"

"Of course..." Toviel was stunned and said without thinking.

"Then what's the point, hurry up and lead the way!" Brian interrupted her directly, and then said to the female ranger with a straight face on purpose.
