After a long silence, the green haired elder finally said with a sigh, "This is a matter that we can't discuss with an outsider."

I said with a sly smile, "I don't think that I can be considered an outsider, can I?"

The elders looked at me with strange looks before turning to Haley and Cecilia. The green haired elder said, "What about your companions then?"

I said with the same smile, "They can leave the room temporarily if that is what you want."

The elders knitted their brows to look at me, as if they were trying to figure out if I was being serious or not. Seeing this, I immediately put away the smile and looked back at them with a serious look.

There was a silent stare off for a minute before the elders gave another sigh.

Finally, the green haired elder said, "You really are something else."

I couldn't help revealing a smile when I heard this.

But then before the green haired elder could say anything else, the door to the tree house suddenly opened.

Standing at the entrance was a red haired male elf. This was an elf that was just as handsome as the rest, but his hair was a rare red colour that was different from the rest of the elves. At the same time, he was much more buff and gave off a different feeling from the rest of the elves.

If it had to be described in one word, it would be…dangerous.

That was the feeling that he gave me.

When he appeared, Cecilia immediately put her hand at her waist where her sword was and she moved closer to me.

However, the red haired elf completely ignored her as he walked over to where the elders were.

This red haired elf said, "Elders, why have you allowed these humans into our village?"

He said this without care for the humans that were currently standing there, namely us.

When we heard this, all three of us couldn't help knitting our brows.

The elders also knitted their brows before the green haired elder said, "Apollo, what do you think you're doing? Do you really think that this is a place where you can just enter and ask questions as you wish?"

The red haired elf named Apollo didn't back down when he heard this.

He just held his head up high and puffed his chest out as he said, "I am the captain of the warriors, it is my duty to guard against possible threats such as this." Then after saying this, he turned to look at us.

When he looked at us, one could see the clear disdain that was in those eyes.

Then at the end, he turned his head away and gave a snort.

It was clear that he looked down on us with this.

Cecilia looked like she had something to say, so I quickly moved forward and raised my hand to stop her. Then when she looked at me with an aggrieved and angry look, I just shook my head.

We were guests of the elves, so if we did anything here…it would be perceived as an act of aggression.I think you should take a look at

But I also knew that we would have to take care of this Apollo with how aggressive he was acting towards us.

The elders all knitted their brows even more when they heard this.

The green haired elder especially as she looked at Apollo with a serious and complicated look.

After a long period of silence, the green haired elder finally said, "These humans came here with the Song of Friendship and the guarantee of a high elf. If we can't trust that, then there is nothing that we can trust. So that doesn't excuse your behaviour, Apollo."

When Apollo heard this, he couldn't help revealing a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He had only heard that humans had been brought back to the village, so he had only assumed that they knew the Song of Friendship. He never expected that they would actually be connected to a high elf.

At this, he narrowed his eyes to look at Zwein.

Seeing the way that he looked at me, I calmly looked right back into his eyes.

When Apollo saw this, there was a trace of indignation that appeared in his eyes.

This human actually dared to challenge him like this?

But in front of the elders, Apollo had no choice but to endure.

So he just gave another snort and turned to our group before saying, "I'll be keeping an eye on you. If you dare step out of place, I will be there to stop you."

Without even waiting for a response from me, Apollo walked out of the tree house.

Cecilia really looked like she wanted to run after him and beat him up, but Haley and I were able to stop her in the end.

After another long silence, the green haired elder gave a sigh before saying, "I hope that you will be able to excuse him. Apollo is our head warrior, but he is a bit…zealous when it comes to keeping the peace."

I turned back and gave an understanding nod before saying, "I know that there are different individuals when it comes to different races. Just like you have your own 'difficult' people, we have our 'difficult' people as well."

The green haired elder gave a grateful nod and looked at me with a grateful look when she heard this.

But then she still gave a cough to clear her throat before saying, "Unfortunately, we can't come to a decision about your request today."

I couldn't help knitting my brows when I heard this.

However, before I could say anything, the green haired elder said, "We'll talk about it tomorrow. Right now, you should go and join the feast that is being held to welcome you."

She put a meaningful intonation in the latter half of her words.

When I heard them, I immediately understood what she meant and gave a nod of agreement.

So with this, we all stood up and headed out while being led by the green haired elf.
