Chapter 491: Chapter 491 Noble Elf Queen VS “Protagonist’s Aura” Girl (Part 15) Chapter 491: Chapter 491 Noble Elf Queen VS “Protagonist’s Aura” Girl (Part 15) Ailuner lowered his head, allowing the Queen before him to place the diadem upon his own head.
Their distance was so close that Ailuner could breathe in the faint scent of grass and trees emanating from the Queen.
It was not a fragrance belonging to any plant he knew; it was a scent unique to the Elf Queen.
Gu Shengyin took a step back, satisfied with her handiwork.
The male elf with his hair tied back, had gained a more dashing air after the comparison to before.
She revealed a slight smile, softly opening her mouth to complete the last step of the coming-of-age ceremony.
“Oh mighty and beautiful Goddess of Nature, you co to the earth with sunshine, dew, and a gentle breeze. Grass sprouts beneath your feet, and flowers bloom within your hands…”
All the elves sang along with their Queen, chanting this hymn to the Goddess of Nature.
The elves believed in this deity said to be the gentlest and most beautiful. They held the faith that their race, which was closest to nature, had been created by this Goddess.
However, at this mont, Gu Shengyin sensed sothing amiss.
She looked at Ailuner with a hint of surprise, and had she not swiftly regained her composure, she might have even lost her poise.
The lover from her own world was actually…
Right after the final step of Ailuner’s coming-of-age ceremony, a familiar throbbing resonated from the depths of her soul. This turn of events had caught her by surprise.
She eyed Ailuner with an odd expression. Could it be due to the unique physiology of the Elf Race that she had not recognized him before his coming of age?
“System, you must have known all along that Ailuner is him, right?”
The system admitted readily, “Yes, host.”
Gu Shengyin couldn’t help but laugh in exasperation, “But you didn’t tell .” Even when she mistook her lover for the Human Emperor or the Golden Giant Dragon, the system had not stepped forward to correct her.
The system’s tone was forthright, “Host, you did not inquire. That is beyond my scope of duties.”
Gu Shengyin: “…I don’t wish to deal with you right now, please leave be.”
System: “…”
However, Gu Shengyin was feeling sowhat troubled. Ailuner had grown up before her eyes, and the way he looked at her with trust and reliance was clearly directed at a respected elder.
She found it sowhat difficult to make a move on such an obedient child.
Ailuner only felt that, ever since his coming-of-age ceremony passed, the Queen’s gaze upon him had beco sowhat odd.
Whether it was during their interactions or when he played the harp for her, she often looked at him with an inexplicable expression, seemingly conflicted.
Ailuner felt a bit uneasy: Could it be that the Queen did not like his appearance after becoming an adult? Did she prefer the soft and adorable type that would tug at her sleeves and act coquettishly?
Unfortunately, one’s appearance is beyond control, and he had no way to revert to how he looked before. Ailuner thought to himself with so distress.
If Gu Shengyin knew what he was thinking, she would probably rush to stop him: No! Never do that. Raising a cute and delicate child is not an issue, but imagining them as a lover is a different and frankly disturbing thought.
Nevertheless, Gu Shengyin was soon distracted by another matter.
The human girl Xi Lili, who possessed the “Protagonist’s Aura” in this world, had been born.
Gu Shengyin had been purposely monitoring the town where Xi Lili was born. Nothing untoward had occurred, and even at the ti of her birth, she seed no different from any other child.
She didn’t display any absurdly fortuitous fate at the mont.
So, exactly when did Xi Lili begin her path of usurping fate?
