Klein's inner peace didn't last long.

The elf who went to Bugatina to find Conrad brought back two of his letters.

One was for Ino, in which Conrad spoke coldly, telling Ino that he would not return to the Kingdom of Havre and did not want to see Ino.

He was engaged in ore processing in Bugatina not because of Ino's careless talk a few years ago, but because of his current partner. He hoped that Ino would not come to him and disturb his peaceful and comfortable life.

The other letter was addressed to Klein. Conrad first expressed his gratitude to Klein for taking care of Eno all the way, and attached a valuable gem to the letter.Then he asked Klein to bring Ino back to the Kingdom of Havre, and if necessary, prevent Ino from coming to see him.

Both letters were initially handed over to Klein, and the elf who brought them back told him that Conrad hoped that he would read both letters before deciding whether to help him or not.

Klein first read the letter to Eno, and then read his own. When he read this, he felt a little bit of discord—Conrad even remembered a sentence that Eno said casually a few years ago. Nuo refused to see each other?Does he really have a partner yet?

He frowned and continued to look down——

In the second letter, Conrad frankly expressed his love for Eno. Of course, when Eno was young, he never had any affection for his students beyond the scope of teachers and students. Until later, Eno always teased him , and later boldly confessed to him that he was attracted by Yinuo's fiery emotions, and that's why he fell in love for a while.

Conrad assures Klein that he has never revealed this fascination, but only keeps his emotion in his heart, and always keeps a proper distance from Ino as a teacher and a student, because he knew from the beginning that elves and humans are not the same. Should be together.

The lifespan of elves is too long compared with that of humans. In a couple, when humans are getting old, elves may not even grow the first fine lines.

During this process, most of the human side will be depressed because of their aging appearance and difficulty matching their lovers. In fact, elves are an extremely affectionate race. Once they choose a partner, they will stick to it.

The vast majority of them don’t care about their partner’s appearance. Instead, they blame themselves for causing trouble to their partner, so that they commit self-mutilation or even suicide, trying to weaken simultaneously with their partner, but so far no elves have succeeded .

When their partner dies, the elves either choose to return to nature ahead of time and completely free themselves from the long pain, or they reminisce about the past in hundreds of thousands of years of solitude until they die.

Conrad told Klein frankly that he had no partner in Bugatina, and when he left the Kingdom of Havre, he had already decided to spend the rest of his life with the memories of him and Ino.Not seeing Yinuo is not because he is afraid that Yinuo will disturb his life, but because he is afraid that he can't help keeping Yinuo, which will make Yinuo fall into pain.

"...Ino is still a young man, his temperament is changeable, he has suffered setbacks and has the opportunity to choose again. I sincerely hope that he can find a human partner who loves him in the future. I will live forever in the distant Bugatina Bless him. I hope you will fulfill my little long-cherished wish."

Klein closed the letter, and Conrad's plain words were still echoing in his ears.

Those words are restrained, but full of tender love overflows from between the lines.

"..."

He still doesn't know his own affairs clearly, let alone how to do it for the good of the teacher and the student.

Objectively speaking, Conrad's concerns are justified.

In the kingdom of Afur, elves never fall in love with humans, because the result of love is destined to be a tragedy.

It's best not to start an inappropriate relationship.

perhaps……

He should respect the deliberate decision of a calm elf.

In the evening, Klein found a suitable opportunity and handed Conrad's letter to Eno.

When Eno saw that Conrad had a partner in Bugatina and refused to meet him, his eyes turned red quickly, his lips trembled, and after a while, he suddenly crumpled the letter into a ball, smashed it to the ground, and bit his fingers anxiously.

"Liars, all liars! Conrad likes me, he can't have another partner! He lied to me, he was afraid, no, I can't be here, I'm going to find him, I want him to tell me this to my face!"

Ino suddenly stood up and was about to run outside.

Klein quickly blocked him, but saw Yinuo's tears falling down one by one.

He stubbornly wiped away the tears that filled his eyes with the back of his hand, and he couldn't wipe them off. Finally, he gave up on himself and cried loudly: "He, why should he!!"

Since Yinuo cried once a few months ago, although he used to cry to threaten people, in fact, he never cried again until the Kingdom of Toust.

In Klein's view, this situation was too difficult. He tried his best to persuade him for several hours. Eno's reluctance at the beginning turned into hatred. After that, he nestled on the bed, motionless, refusing to eat or drink.

Klein had no choice but to go to the restaurant to help him get food.

It was too late, the food was prepared by the chef, and it took some time. When he came back, he found that there was no one on the bed, the wardrobe was open, and the suitcase that Eno never left his hand was gone.

There was a note on the table, which said that he no longer wanted to stay in Conrad's hometown, and he wanted to return to the Kingdom of Havre immediately, so that Klein should not worry.

Klein held the note: "..."

How can you not worry?

Yinuo has never traveled far alone before, alone, in the middle of the night, wandering around in a strange country, just thinking about it makes him feel cold.

He immediately went out to search, mobilized the crew of the Pearl to search in the port, and asked Ferris to help him search in the royal city, but the royal city of Toust was too big, and Yinuo's age and dress were not outstanding, so there was nowhere to go follow.

It wasn't until daybreak that the patrol officer under Ferris got a piece of useful news from a sailor - in the early morning, a young man with a suitcase boarded a passenger ship bound for Bugatina.

The patrol officer took Klein to meet the sailor. After detailed questioning, the sailor was not sure about the young man's appearance. He only said that the man had been crying on the shore before boarding the boat, so he remembered him.

It was Ino without a doubt.

It's not that he doesn't want to stay in Conrad's hometown for a moment, but he can't wait to see Conrad, just like his first reaction after reading the letter.

Klein first wrote a letter to Conrad, telling him that Ino went to find him alone, and asked him to meet him at Bugatina.

Then he handed over the affairs in Toust to Nata, rented a lighter power boat, and wanted to catch up with the passenger ship that Ino was on along the route.

The power boat is light, and on the third night, it caught up with the passenger ship that sailed from Tuxt in the early morning.

He boarded the ship halfway to search, and almost turned the passenger ship upside down, but he didn't see Ino—couldn't the sailor see Ino?

When he got off the boat, Klein completely lost his search direction.

Just when he was about to return to Tuster Kingdom for re-screening, the helmsman in charge of sailing exclaimed: "Mermaid! Is that a mermaid!?"

Surrounding neighboring kingdoms such as Tust, Denia, and Bugatina, is the Filia sea area, and most mermaids are active in the Windsor sea area on the westernmost side of the continent. When the helmsman saw the mermaid for the first time, he shouted excitedly and even stopped. After getting off the engine, I wanted to get out of the operating room to have a look.

Klein was originally thinking about what to do if Ino really returned to the Kingdom of Havre in the cabin. When he heard the voice, his heart suddenly moved, and he got up and went to the deck.

I saw several mermaids swimming around the boat.

A mermaid with seaweed-colored hair and a pearl corset looked up at Klein, smiled sweetly, and lifted a navy blue conch from the water.

Klein leaned over the railing and asked, "Is this for me?"

The mermaid bent her eyes and nodded in the sunlight.

The helmsman stared dumbfounded as Klein lowered a lifeboat, and the mermaids surrounding the powerboat immediately swarmed up. The seaweed-colored long-haired mermaid swam to the side of the boat, and the cyan tail was looming under the sea.

Klein took the conch from her hand and asked, "Did...Sweet asked you to give it to me?"

The mermaids around looked at Klein with curious eyes, and they seemed to find it strange to hear Klein say Sweet's name and look at each other.

The seaweed-colored long-haired mermaid completed her mission, tilted her head slightly and smiled, turned over and jumped into the sea. The cyan flexible fish tail turned out of the water, and the scales glistened with water. It drew an arc in midair and sank into the deep sea.

The other mermaids showed regretful expressions, waved goodbye to Klein, and scattered in all directions. After a while, the boat that was surrounded by mermaids just now was like a fallen leaf, standing alone beside the power boat.

At this time, Sweet, who had disappeared for a while, suddenly asked the mermaid to give him the conch...

Klein hesitated for a moment, tapped the conch twice, and put it to his ear.

Sweet's calm voice came out: [He disembarked at the port ahead. 】

Klein froze, knocked the conch twice, and listened again. The last few messages were the same as when Enuo misunderstood the conch.

——From the beginning to the end, it was still the conch.

As a last resort, he spoke to Conch for the first time: "What do you mean? Do you know where he is now?"

Sweet didn't keep him waiting long before replying.

It turned out that the passenger ship that Ino was on would stop at several ports along the way. He took the ship alone because he didn't know how far Bugatina was from the Kingdom of Havre. When the passenger ship docked, he thought he had reached his final destination. Then, following a large group of passengers, they disembarked at the port of the border city of Tuxt in a daze.

Realizing that he got off the wrong boat, Ino bought another ticket and took another speedboat that went directly to Bugatina, and now he has entered the territorial waters of Denia.

"..."

Klein didn't know what to say for a moment. Perhaps, he shouldn't have stopped Enuo in the first place, so that Enuo wouldn't run around alone behind his back.

Fortunately, no one happened.

At this time, Conch received a new reply——

【Let the helmsman disembark at the nearest port】

【I will take you to find him】

"..."

It was about Yinuo's safety, and Klein had no room to refuse. He held the conch tightly for a long time, and said, "Thank you."

He boarded the power boat, and under the repeated inquiries of the helmsman, he turned around and went to the nearest port, let the helmsman disembark, and then sailed away from the port to the vast sea.

Without his urging, the sea water behind the powerboat seemed to be alive, and began to push the hull forward.

At first, the powerboat was slowly pushed to the speed when the engine was turned on to the maximum, and the speed gradually increased, and the waves below were puffed up one after another, and the powerboat almost leaped over the sea.

The hull of the ship fell on the surface of the sea, causing splashes. The splashes were attracted by some force from the deep sea and fell. Not a single drop of water splashed on Klein's face.

The sea breeze howled and lifted his black hair, like a hand caressing his cheek.

The author has something to say:

Sweet: I'll take you to him

Ino: ...

Eno: Right now I'm scared, very scared

Don't worry, I'll make it back for sure~
