The moment that this bubbling sound rang out, we all turned in the direction of it.
But there was no need to guess to know that it was coming from the pool in the center of the clearing.
When we looked at it, we found that there were only a few bubbles that had appeared on the surface of the pond.
However, it didn't take long before the bubbling became stronger and stronger until it seemed like the entire pond was boiling over. This bubbling became so strong that the noise almost became deafening.
Still, this bubbling sound didn't last long.
All of sudden, the middle part of the pond stopped bubbling and instead, there was a splashing sound. There was a part of the water that suddenly lifted itself up and started floating over the pond.
This water took the form of an arc that floated up higher and higher above the water.
The sides of the arc flowed back down into the pond itself and formed a straight line.
When the water arc was done rising up, the entire thing took the form of what seemed to be a mirror.
Looking into the water mirror, they could see their own reflection on the water surface.
However, this was a mirror that had been formed out of nowhere and was completely created from water, so it did catch them off guard.
But that wasn't the end of that just yet.
After the water mirror formed, there was a bit of a delay before it suddenly lit up. The surface of the water mirror released a glow that was a bit too bright to look at directly, so they had no choice but to turn their eyes away.
When the light faded and they turned back to look at the water mirror, they found that there was a leg that was now sticking out of the water mirror. It seemed to come out the other side of the water mirror, but those to the side could see that there wasn't anything behind it.
It was almost as if it had appeared out of nowhere.
Though it didn't just stop at this leg.
The leg fell down onto the surface of the pond and by some kind of miracle, that leg started standing on the surface of the water. The foot just stood there on the surface without falling.
But of course, it wasn't just a leg that came through.
After taking a step, the rest of the body of the leg's owner came through as well.
They walked through the water mirror and then stood there atop the surface of the pond, looking at the group that was in front of this pond.
This person had fair white skin, beautiful light green hair, and piercing green eyes that swept over everyone. There was no doubt of this person's beauty.
When our group saw this person appear, all of us couldn't help being stunned.
However, that person also wasn't alone.
It didn't take long before two other figures walked through the water mirror and appeared in front of us. They stood beside the first figure that had come through and looked over our group as well.
While they were all beautiful…the most shocking thing about these people that had come through the water mirror were…their ears.
They had sharp pointed ears coming out of the side of their heads, proving that they were elves.
After a moment of daze, the guards of our group quickly pulled their weapons and surrounded the pond.
I wanted to stop them, but it was already too late as the two elves that came after the first one raised their hands to summon bows out of thin air. They quickly pointed these bows at the guards in front of them.
At the same time, there was a green glow that appeared around these two elves, as if they were prepared to cast magic at any moment.
It was only the green haired elf who had come through first that was just still standing there looking at our group.
There was a tense feeling that filled the air after this confrontation and a long silence that followed.
But then I quickly raised my hands and said, "Wait, wait! We come in peace!"
After that, I looked at the guards and waved my hands for them to put down their weapons.
The guards had hesitant and unwilling looks on their faces when they saw this.
So I had no choice but to look at Cecilia.
She also had a hesitant and unwilling look on her face, but after seeing the look that I gave her, she finally chose to have the guards put down their weapons.
As for the look that I gave her, it was naturally one that asked her to trust me.
After seeing that our guards had put down their weapons, the elves still didn't put down their bows which made us feel even more tense. But then the green haired elf who had come out first raised a hand and the two elves finally relaxed, putting away their bows and letting the green light around them scatter.
Seeing this, I couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief.
The green haired elf still didn't say anything as they looked at our group, but then they suddenly said, "Which one of you played the song?"
Hearing this, everyone turned to look at me.
With everyone looking at me like this, I stepped forward and raised my hand while saying, "It was me."
The green haired elf looked at me for a bit before raising one brow and asking, "It was you?"
I couldn't help revealing a bitter smile when I heard this. I could clearly hear the insulting tone of disbelief that was in their voice, but I kept that to myself.
I just calmly said, "That's right, I was the one that played the Song of Friendship."
The green haired elf just narrowed their eyes to look at me for a bit before saying with a nod, "Alright, what do you want?"
