“Mannen?” Bai Saya was even more confused. This is already a matter from many months ago. Why would the Guild only start investigating now?

“Saya, Mannen went insane while dueling you two due to a small gem, right?”

Bai Saya remembered that when he was in Stella City’s Adventurers’ Guild, Dan had asked this same question. However, he had impulsively replied that there was no gem. Upon thinking of this lie that could be seen through the moment it left his mouth, Bai Saya instantly felt so awkward that his face reddened.

“Yes, there was a gem.” Even though it was very embarrassing, he still admitted it. After all, Dan had helped them out multiple times. Truthfully, even now, he was still trying to help them. The lie had also been seen through a long time ago, so stubbornly holding on to it was meaningless.

Dan hesitantly asked, “After the two of you took the gem, has anything unusual happened?”

“Anything unusual? Nope.” Bai Saya scratched his face. They had actually completely forgotten about that thing. He didn’t even know if Shooting Star had kept it. There was a chance that he might have sold it when they were short on money.

“Really? Do you really not suspect that your companion might be hiding something from you? After all, isn’t the gem not with you?” Dan’s tone was rarely as harsh as it was when he brought up the question. He added meaningfully, “That gem can allow a person to gain true power, just like Mannen. It was just that he did not use it correctly. Saya, are you sure that your companion doesn’t hunger for power?”

“Yahoo! Xiao Bai, look! The color of the sea looks so similar to the color of Alan’s eyes!”

Shooting Star brazenly held on to the side of the boat, with half of his body hanging out of the boat. He repeatedly shrieked at the churning waves below. Right now, his favorite thing to do was to throw whatever object was within reach off the boat and watch the rolling waves swallow the innocent objects.

“Reckless abandon.” This phrase was simply tailor-made for Shooting Star.

When they first went to find Dan, Shooting Star hadn’t shown any expression of guilt. In fact, whether or not he had any feelings of guilt at all was up for debate. Not only that, he boldly gestured at Alan and said, “This is Alan. You recognize him, right? He’s that elf!”

Shooting Star, you… Bai Saya simply wanted to find a hole and crawl into it. Who would steal something someone was guarding and then shamelessly introduce that thing to the person?

“Since Ice Chess said Dan already knows, it’s all right!” Shooting Star said confidently, “If we tell Dan early on, then when we’re out at sea, we can have Alan restore his golden hair! I don’t want to have to continue to look at this ugly black hair!”

“Ice Chess went to find you?” Dan was silent for a while and hurriedly turned to ask Bai Saya, “He didn’t hurt you, did he?”

Woah woah woah! Shooting Star elbowed Alan, who was beside him, a few times and taunted them, “Look! He only cares about Xiao Bai. I think we simply shouldn’t tag along anymore. If we go, we might incur resentment. Don’t you agree?”

Under the bright and clear moonlight, the swaying grass gave off a faint, silver glow. In the midst of the grass hid a glittering lake. If you didn’t take a close look, you might think it was a particularly dense expanse of grass.

Next to the lake was a handsome, carefree figure, whose posture was as straight as a pine tree, with supple, black hair tied at the back of their head and white clothes caressed by the night wind. It was a sight so beautiful that you wouldn’t be able to bear to make any noise to disrupt it.

Even Alan, who was a beautiful elf himself, was mesmerized by this sight. He quietly took in the view of the handsome figure before his eyes.

The figure suddenly turned around and smiled faintly, and even those amber eyes carried a trace of that smile. The elf couldn’t help but admit that even though he held no positive feelings toward humans, he could not bring himself to hate this human.

Bai Saya said with a smile, “The moonlight is resplendent today. It’s perfect for doing a certain task.”

“Do you wish to dance?” Alan expressed his understanding.

Chapter 5: Dan’s Uncle, Part One—translated by lucathia (proofread by Lala Su)

Out of the thirty-six stratagems, fleeing is the best!

Shooting Star took all his belongings—two pets—and fled in the middle of the night through the window.

What a joke! He hadn’t even needed to flee after stealing away an elf worth twenty thousand gold ducats from the Goldenstyle Merchant Guild, yet for the sake of something he had to do every day—bathing—he was forced to jump through the window and flee in the middle of the night!

Sob, sob, sob! Why is Belle so focused on bathing? It forced him to steel his heart and flee from the enticing thought of a palace full of delicious food and a beautiful princess.

Compared to Shooting Star who was reluctant, Bai Saya was pretty much jumping for joy. We’re finally leaving! I can finally escape from a future full of Dan, Philo, and Agid. He was practically so happy that he wanted to kneel down and thank every single god of the Northern, Western, Southern, and Eastern Continents.

One was pulling a face, the other was full of cheer, and the last one had no clue what was going on from start to finish.

“I think… it’s time for me to leave,” Alanmishus said.

“What?! Where are you going?” Shooting Star and Bai Saya were both surprised to the point of speaking simultaneously.

Alanmishus said as if it were a matter of course, “Back to the Eastern Continent.”

“Oh!” Bai Saya nodded and said, “I see. You’re heading back? What a pity. I thought I would be able to adventure with you for a while.”

“I have no interest in adventuring,” Alanmishus answered indifferently.

“Philo?”

That’s right. The person in front of Bai Saya was none other than Philo, who had adventured with him for around two months and thought of him as a woman the whole time!

However, Philo was currently not dressed like an adventurer. He wore a dark blue knight’s outfit of high quality make, and a gorgeous knight’s sword hung by his waist. He looked just like an elegant noble, much more than Prince Bol.

Philo looked rather surprised. He asked in a hurry, “Saya, I thought you had left..? Eh? Did you just call my name?”

I thought I would never see you and Agid again either, Bai Saya answered in his heart.

“Is it Saya?”

Agid rushed over, squishing his entire body by the door, his eyes large and round. He shouted, “Saya, you’re so beautiful in a dress!”

“Is it Saya-jiějie? Let her come in right away!” came a surprised shout from a girl within.

“Brute, no matter how skinny Saya is, she can’t squeeze through a door that you’re blocking!” The rogue Pisce’s mocking words also sounded from within.

This really is the adventurer team I just left. Bai Saya thought it to be a little strange. Isn’t this Princess Anabelle’s private room?

Agid scratched his head and moved aside with a foolish smile so that Bai Saya could enter. Even though Bai Saya didn’t understand what was going on, the guards were piercing holes into his back, so he could only head inside first before anything else.

Philo told the guards, “Thank you for escorting her over.”

Given the situation, the suspicion in the guards’ eyes dissipated, and after giving a nod to Philo, they left to continue chasing that woman in a black formal dress.

“Saya, you can speak now?” Philo asked both happily and doubtfully.

“Saya, that Dan didn’t bully you, did he?” Agid shouted angrily.

“Saya-jiějie, where’s Shooting Star?”

Bai Saya felt his head spin from getting bombarded by three questions at the same time. Just as he was thinking of how to answer, he was stumped by an enigma—who was that person who asked the last question?
