"How is this even possible?!"
Socduo blurted out instinctively but quickly realized his rudeness and corrected himself.
"Apologies, I didn't mean to pry into your trade secrets..."
"Trade secrets? Haha, hardly," Brook chuckled, speaking playfully, "If you can earn the friendship of the elves, you could harvest summer crops in winter too."
Ah, so it's the elves...
Socduo immediately felt enlightened and dismissed any thought of uncovering the underlying secrets.
Pointy ears may be allies of humans, but this group of allies seldom enjoy interacting with humans, most of them residing on an island in the center of the Vortex Sea.
No one knows the location of that island. Numerous attempts to chart a route to the Yigde Tree have ended in failure.
To gain the friendship of the elves...
Socduo found himself increasingly admiring the legendary Lord.
At least, he had never heard of an elf serving an Undead Mage.
