Chapter 584: Niya’s Origin
Green vines climbed the windows and walls, the tender branches gently extending, exuding the fresh aura of life, with a few delicate white flowers blooming occasionally.
It was like an elf’s cottage.
Although it was not her homeland, the Wood Elf Girl took great care of the house she rented, expending her demonic power to maintain the vitality of the vines and branches in the cold air.
“Miss Ain is also missing home… But among elves, she’s considered very young, isn’t she? After being away from home for so long, she must miss it terribly…”
Iget thought. If she told Miss Ain that the sea was ice-sealed and the route from Vinash City to the Elf Forest was blocked, she would surely be upset, wouldn’t she?
Returning to the house, Ain shed her simple robe and, after tidying her beautiful hair, changed back into her favorite emerald green elf-style sheer long dress, which outlined the young girl’s graceful figure. Compared to the pitiful girl fleeing earlier, she now appeared like an ethereal fairy from a dream.
Elegant and captivating, exuding the freshness of life and youth, even just sitting beside her, Iget felt his mood relax considerably.
The crisp voice of the little maid “Tata” echoed on the wooden floor. Niya, faithfully fulfilling her duties as a maid, held a cup of warm floral tea with her two tender little hands and served it to Verafia.
Iget’s gaze fell upon Niya again. At this moment, he still found it somewhat difficult to connect this little maid with the Fire Pigeon that had been cooing in Verafia’s hands and was almost roasted and eaten by the girl.
“Do elemental spirits also have solidified flesh and blood forms…?”
Iget wondered. He used his True Sight Eye, and Niya’s small body was indeed made of flesh and blood, not a disguise of elemental power.
“What’s so strange about that?”
The golden-haired girl took a small sip of the warm floral tea, a slight smile curving her lips, seemingly satisfied with the taste of the tea. She turned her head:
“It’s like the first king of the Peka Kingdom, when he was still a young man, met that moon elf girl… she wasn’t an elf in the current sense, but didn’t they also become a perfect match, leading to the thousand-year Peka-Arland dynasty of Peka thereafter?”
“Although that moon elf wasn’t a creature of the elements, but rather the first ray of moonlight scattered by the Moon Goddess Elusia…”
Iget recalled the scene he saw in the fragmented memories when Misella blessed him, and accordingly, he nodded.
“Moreover, there is no lack of even more ancient precedents.”
Verafia slightly put down her teacup, her slender and fair jade fingers gently tapping the tabletop, tilting her head in thought. “For example, in ancient times, the first fire spirit Salamander, the water spirit Undine… little Ice Dragon, wouldn’t you agree?”
“Mmm!”
The Ice Dragon Girl, lying beside them, had her mouth full of pastries. The snacks made by Ain suited the taste of this little Ice Dragon Princess very well, and she busily nodded her head in agreement.
“Furthermore, in essence… this young lady is also a flame that burned in the Herafir Temple.”
Iget carefully considered it and found that what the girl said was indeed correct.
He couldn’t help but size up Niya, who had run to the girl’s side. Her silky smooth and beautiful red hair, her gorgeous crimson pupils, the slight peek of delicate, jade-white elf-like pointed ears, and her doll-like cute face.
Niya seemed to be quite close to Verafia, running around beside the girl.
Speaking of which, Niya was so scared in her young lady’s hands back then and was almost roasted and eaten by her. Does she not remember?
Iget thought with amusement.
The red-haired girl with crimson eyes seemed to look exceptionally harmonious with Verafia… in one picture, as if meticulously painted by the same artist.
Iget suddenly froze. He looked again carefully.
Niya looked like a young elf. Although she hadn’t fully grown yet, her pure and beautiful face could fully evoke imagination of how stunning she would be when she grew up. However, Iget couldn’t help but compare her to his own young lady.
For some reason, in Iget’s eyes, Niya’s face seemed to bear some resemblance to Verafia’s, as if she were the girl in her childhood, yet completely different… Was it because he was too familiar with that young lady?
“Tsk.”
A soft laugh, the girl lightly covered her lips with her slender hand, but her golden eyes slightly lifted. “You noticed, you fellow.”
“Hm?”
Iget was taken aback. “Could it be that Niya is really related to Veer?”
“There should be a connection, shouldn’t there?”
Her jade-white fingers moved slightly. Verafia assumed a thoughtful expression. Suddenly, a playfully cute smile flickered across her snow-white, delicate face.
“This young lady is the Goddess of Flames. Theoretically, all fire elements should be my subjects.”
“Is that so…?”
Iget thought doubtfully. Seeing his pensive look, the girl let out a silver bell-like laugh.
“Alright, I was just teasing you.”
The girl seemed to be in a good mood, even having the leisure to play a small joke with him. Her golden moon-like brilliant and beautiful eyes curved slightly. “Perhaps it’s because I gave this fellow a drop of my blood back then.”
“Your drop of blood, Miss?”
Iget was startled.
The girl before him was the Goddess of Flames. Her blood also contained divine power of flames, along with the authority and will of blazing fire…
“Yes.”
Verafia raised her golden eyes and said as a matter of course:
“When I went to fight Anderdun, this young lady borrowed a bit of this fellow’s strength. Giving her a drop of blood is considered compensation from a Goddess Princess.”
Iget’s gaze fell upon the girl whose delicate face revealed a gentle smile, her soft and slender little hand stroking Niya’s beautiful hair.
No wonder, when Verafia and Niya stood together, they always gave him a sense of déjà vu, like a young mother with her little daughter as a loli…
However, looking at it this way, to some extent, are the young lady and Niya “mother and daughter”?
Iget suddenly became lost in thought. In his mind, he couldn’t help but start thinking about what name he and Verafia’s daughter should have…
After teasing Niya’s delicate and soft little face for a while, Verafia’s cheeks were filled with a cheerful smile.
She turned her head and found that Iget, sitting beside her, was uncharacteristically lost in thought. She couldn’t help but feel curious and gently nudged him with her small hand:
“Mmm, Iget, what are you thinking about… is it about this young lady?”
