My Elf System - Chapter 119

Chapter 119: 119. Stealing The Headmistress 2.
Orion pulled out the goblin King’s horn from his inventory before handing it over to Elena.

“What’s this?” Elena inquired as she collected the horn from Orion.

“I found it in El’vendom along with a sword after taking down a goblin king.”

“A goblin king?” Elena repeated, finding it weird to hear that a goblin had evolved into a goblin king.

It usually took years for a goblin to undergo this evolution, so it was strange for the goblin to have survived for such a long time without one of their adventurers taking it out before it evolved into a goblin king.

“Yes, but the strangest thing was the miasma oozing out of the horn when I first saw it.”

“Let me guess; the goblin king was somehow able to adapt to the miasma corrupting its monster core, thereby allowing it to evolve at a faster rate than normal goblins.”

“Precisely.”

“Then, this means you purified the horn yourself?”

“Yep.”

“I’m impressed. You’re slowly comprehending how to control your Astral energy. To be honest, I’m a bit jealous because neither your mother nor I was able to do this at your age.”

“Maybe I’m able to do this because I have the best mother and aunt in the world.”

“Thanks, dear.”

“Actually, I’m a bit worried about who might have passed through the runic barrier. I wouldn’t want them to drop other artifacts in places that are yet to be discovered. It could really hurt our people if anyone were to come in contact with the miasma oozing out of it.

Anyways, I tried to check the cave where the goblins came from but there weren’t any other dangerous artifacts in the cave,” Orion was able to do this with the help of his Omnivision skill right after he stored the artifacts in his inventory.

“I understand what you are saying, dear, but don’t worry about it; I’ll let your mom know about this.”

Elena could guess how the artifacts happened to find their way to the elf kingdom.

She could also understand why Orion might be feeling a bit worried.

He was worried about how someone from the nether realm had passed through his runic barrier before dropping the artifacts in a place where the goblin king would find them.

However, Elena wasn’t really bothered by this.

She had a guess as to who might have done this, but she wanted to talk to her sister first and then hear her opinion before making a final decision on what to do next.

Meanwhile, Orion nodded his head in response before Lucille, who happened to be eavesdropping on their conversation, spoke up. “Prince Galdur, have you decided on when you’ll help the academy replace its magical barrier with a runic barrier?”

“I will, when the academy is ready to offer me 10,000 merit points.”

“What? You’re trying to graduate from the academy as fast as you can, aren’t you?”

“Yep, and I’ll be willing to help you and the academy as long as I get the ten thousand merit points.”

“Not going to happen. That’s definitely bribery.”

“Nope, it’s a simple negotiation between two adults. Anyways, you still haven’t told me what you think might be of interest to me in this academy.”

“Oh, I wanted you to meet one of the professors in the academy. Sabrina Mills, she’s a witch with a strong interest in alchemy and runes.”

“Is that it? You invited me to the academy because you wanted me to meet a witch who happens to be a professor?”

“Yes and No. Not only is she a powerful witch, but she also happens to have something that might interest you.”

“And what might that be?”

“Bjorn Ironside’s journal?”

“What?! His journal? I thought all of his journals could never be found again?”

“Yes, you’re right.”

“Then how did she find it?”

“We all know Bjorn Ironside successfully hid his race along with his collection of journals, but right after he was killed by Damien Salvatore, Damien took the last remaining journal hidden within Bjorn’s belongings. He was able to decipher some parts of it but there were still some pages that Damien couldn’t decipher before he died.”

“Sabrina took a couple of angels with her and they set out to find the journal. It took them months to search for the journal, but they were able to find it. However, just like Damien, Sabrina has been unable to decipher the journal.”

“So you want me to decipher the journal with her, right?”

“Precisely, if you can do this, we might actually be able to find the dwarven race and the remaining journals belonging to Bjorn which might be helpful to you in the future.”

Hearing this, a smile spread across his face, and he couldn’t wait to see the journal, but since it was with Sabrina, he would only be able to see it after seeing her.

Orion lowered his gaze, surprised that his Aunt hadn’t contributed to the conversation he was having with Lucille.

However, to his surprise, Elena was already asleep in his arms and resting her head on his shoulders, which showed how exhausted she had been after working hard for months without a proper rest.

Elena had tried to look lively yesterday because it had been months since she last saw her family and she didn’t want to look too exhausted to spend time with them.

With his eyes filled with admiration for his aunt, Orion was about to leave the room when he noticed that Lucille was immersed in what she was doing.

Just like his aunt, Orion could see that Lucille was exhausted as well and had had little time to rest and regain her strength.

“What exactly have you been working on since last night?”

“It’s concerning the announcement we made last night.”

“What announcement?”

“Huh? You didn’t see the announcement we sent to every student’s smart bracelet?”

“Nope, I was preoccupied with a few things last night.”

Lucille let out a sigh after hearing what Orion said, she wondered what he could have been so busy with for him to have missed the announcement they made to everyone.

However, Lucille didn’t know that the reason why Orion missed the announcement was because he had been busy having sex with Mia last night.
