<h4>Chapter 466 The duke’s visit (7)</h4>


    After a moment of silence, I couldn''t help asking, "What did theye here for, or did they not tell you?"


    The green haired elder looked very hesitant this time.


    It was as if she was debating on whether to tell me or not, but that wasn''t strange since this was most likely a private matter for the elves.


    Seeing this, I said, "If it''s not something that you can tell me, then…"


    She shook her head when she heard this before saying, "It''s not that I can''t tell you. It''s just that I''m worried that you''ll want to get yourself involved in this matter when you do hear the reason."


    I couldn''t help revealing a confused look when I heard this, but I didn''t say anything as I waited for her to exin.


    The green haired elder gave another sigh before saying, "They''re here looking for Apollo. They were sent by his father."


    I deeply knitted his brows when I heard this.


    This was definitely the one answer that I didn''t expect to hear.


    It had even been a long time since I had heard that name.


    After taking a moment to gather my thoughts, I couldn''t help giving a secret bitterugh.


    Even in death, he was still causing troubles for me.


    But then I realized something else.


    Why would the green haired elder be worried that I would want to get involved in this matter?


    Did she know something?


    As far as she knew, I wasn''t involved in this matter at all since I had no connection to Apollo''s disappearance. Even if I butted heads with him when he was here, that didn''t mean that I would get involved in this matter.


    When she saw the way that I looked at her, the green haired elder also couldn''t help revealing a confused look.


    She looked at Moon and back at me before saying, "Are you two not…"


    Before she could finish, Moon suddenly came forward to stop her by covering her mouth.


    I couldn''t help revealing an even more confused look since I had no idea what she had even wanted to say. However, it seemed like it did concern me, so I was curious what it would be.


    The green haired elder looked at Moon and revealed a look of understanding.


    She reached up to move Moon''s hand from her mouth and then she said, "It seems that I was wrong. It seems that I had nothing to worry about…yet."


    I looked at her with an even more confused look, but the green haired elder didn''t seem like she was about to exin.


    Instead, she looked at me and said, "Alright, let''s go into the vige. If we stay here for too long, they''ll get suspicious."


    Without even waiting for a response from me, she walked through the portal.


    Moon looked at me with a strange look before going into the portal with her.


    We were left there standing all on our own.


    I looked around myself with a helpless look before heading back to the carriage.


    I gave some instructions to the driver before sitting down in the carriage.


    Seeing that I was back, the duke asked, "Is something wrong?"


    I looked at him for a bit before shaking my head and saying, "It''s just a small problem that the elves are facing, it isn''t our concern. But they did give us permission to go into the vige."


    The eyes of the duke and his family all lit up when they heard this.


    I felt a bad feeling when I saw these looks, so I quickly said, "When we get into the vige, you''ll need to stay silent and follow along. I know that you''re excited, but there''s no knowing what will offend the elves, so you need to keep calm and not do anything. Do you understand?"


    The duke and his family were surprised to hear the serious tone that I had, but since I was the expert on the elves that had built the rtionship with them, they just agreed to remain silent.


    I still felt the same bad feeling even though they had agreed, but there was nothing else that I could say right now.


    If I really pushed this matter, then there was the chance of offending the duke and that was thest thing that I wanted.


    So I could only make a mental note to watch over them.


    If I really need to, I could always have Cecilia watch them to make sure that they did nothing wrong.


    Since we had been given permission, our group headed right through the portal and we came out in the elven vige.


    When we arrived, I could tell that something was off about the vige.


    There seemed to be more elves that were here, but these elves were very stern looking instead of being free like elves were supposed to be.


    The elves that I had seen before in the vige were all hiding inside of their homes, as if they were afraid of these elves.


    These should be the elves that had been sent from the capital.


    When they saw using through the portal, they all red at us. They made no signs of hiding their hostility towards us, but at the very least, they didn''t do anything to us.


    It seemed that they had already received the order to let us by, so they just watched as we passed.


    When they saw this, the duke and his family knew that something was off about this vige. Even if I hadn''t told them anything, they could tell just from the tone that hung over this vige that something had changed.


    They looked at me with gazes as if they were asking what was happening, but I just ignored them as I focused on what was in front of us.


    Waiting in the square in the center of the vige was the green haired elder, Moon, and the two green haired elves from before.
