This allowed them to see the man who had changed into a blue and white robe, the white-haired girl who was still wearing cool clothes, the female priest they were familiar with, and...

A grilled fish that I have never seen in my life. It is really a huge grilled fish.

So, after three seconds of silence.

The entire underwater temple cheered.

After all, there is usually nothing new here, and it is not a very big place.

A grilled fish bigger than their house, falling from the sky on the day of celebration, was enough to make these simple people revel.

"...Magic is really a convenient thing."

Gafan, who was holding a wooden plate in his hand and eating seafood dishes that had been prepared for the celebration here, looked at the knives and forks that were surrounding the huge grilled fish and were using their magic to condense them, and he was happy in the distance. The residents who were cutting the fish meat also raised their eyebrows slightly.

After all, he had never encountered this magical setting where almost everyone could use magic in all the different worlds he had passively traveled through before.

But at the same time.

Although everyone has mastered power, there is still a huge gap between them.

Although productivity has been greatly improved through magic, there are still people on the border who may not have enough to eat.

Discrimination and class, pride and prejudice, and extravagant aristocracy...

Thinking of some of the bad scenes he had seen in the Overlord world, Gafan, who was chewing seafood in his mouth, couldn't help but frown even more.

But fortunately, the situation in this country is getting much better after all.

At least in the past half month he has been traveling around, he has not seen any passers-by like beggars, nor has he seen any traces of famine, nor has he seen villages being attacked by monsters but without knights to take care of them.

After all, the Magic Emperor who manages this country is indeed a good person. Being the leader of the major magic knights is not a bad person. In addition, the knight class can only be improved by performance, not by the promotion system of relationships.

All these make the Clover Kingdom a vibrant place with the possibility of reform and new things. In fact, the Magic Emperor has been trying to reform.

All these circumstances also made Gafan have a favorable impression of this country.

Although the fat man who became the king was really stupid and afraid of death.

Thinking back to that guy who barely left the palace, who was neither a tyrant nor a wise king. He clearly had the same power as the Magic Emperor but did nothing. His sense of existence was so weak that even the citizens and people from the enemy country had almost forgotten about him.

Gafan, who had met each other once, didn't know what expression to show.

"Wow, Mr. Gafan, your expression looks so strange."

Jiahenuo, who had just finished a plate of fish and was about to go to the big grilled fish to cut a few cuts, trotted past, then stopped in front of Gafan and looked at him curiously.

"Is the seafood food here not to your liking?"

"No, it's quite delicious. I was just thinking about something." Gafan came back to his senses and shrugged indifferently.

"Well, that's it." Jiahenuo blinked, then looked around, "Where is the system? Isn't the child with you?"

"Well, what about that?"

Gafan casually pointed in the direction of the grilled fish placed in the center of the square.

Among the bustling crowd, a white-haired girl squatting in an invisible shield was chewing grilled fish that was chewier than beef with a pleased expression.

And as soon as the food on the plate is finished, he will open a space crack again as if cheating, allowing the little white guys who have been waiting inside the big grilled fish to pass the food.

Moreover, his flat belly never showed any signs of bulging.

"Oh oh oh, that kid eats so fast!"

After looking around for a while, Jiahenuo also noticed the petite figure hidden in the crowd, and immediately showed an excited expression again.

"I'm a person who really enjoys celebrations, so I can't lose in enthusiasm. Well, that's right. I'm going to find the stupid old man and come over with us to present the most beautiful singing and dancing to everyone, so that the atmosphere of the celebration can be enhanced. Reach the highest peak!”

She did whatever she thought of, and the girl ran away happily, while not forgetting to smile and wave to the guests.

"Mr. Gafan, I wish you a happy celebration and a full meal!"

"Ah, you too."

Gafan smiled, then looked down at the empty plate in his hand. Just when he was about to serve another seafood dish, countless thin strips suddenly appeared on his shoulders, instantly forming a white cat, facing A voice called out from behind him.

"Meow!"

A bottomless tunnel appeared.

It happened to appear at Gafan's feet, but it didn't affect him at all.

Because the cat's invisible claws disturb the lines of fate.

In response to this, Gafan, who was holding a fork in his mouth, glanced at the strange pit that exuded the breath of space in surprise, then turned around and looked at an old man dressed as a priest, who felt inexplicably wretched. Blinking in confusion.

He felt no hostility.

It would be better to say that on the other side's frozen face, I could see a kind of depression similar to the failure of a prank.

Gafan thought about this for a while, and then asked politely out of respect for the elderly and care for the young.

"Old man, may I ask something..."

"Are you just trying to seduce my granddaughter?"

"..."

"She's only fifteen years old, you beast!"

"...Um, what about that."

"The entire people of the Ocean Temple will spurn you, you shameless scum! Even if you fight against rape, fight against injustice, even if I risk my old bones, I will let my ashes arrogantly indulge in silk in front of your door. Slippery~"

"...???"

"And, and - what's going on?"

The old man was stuck in a series of words. He scratched his head with one hand in confusion, and held his white beard that had grown to his waist with the other hand. His old face was full of vitality that was not suitable for his age and had nowhere to put it.

Finally, under Gafan's silent gaze, the old man smiled.

"Okay, I'm joking, guest, Ocean Temple welcomes you, I wish you have an unpleasant night!"

The expressionless Gafan said: "..."

He pressed his knuckles silently.

You know, his moral bottom line on things like respecting the elderly and caring for the young is sometimes quite flexible.

Chapter 268: The Last Land of Elves

"Hey, you disrespectful bastard, I am the high priest here, the person with the highest status, you, you..."

The old man with long eyebrows and beard, a weird eel-like hairstyle, and wearing loose sacrificial robes, no longer had the snickering look on his face, but instead had a very angry and dissatisfied look on his face.

"You actually snitched on my granddaughter?!"

"What a beast!"

Looking at the angry old man blowing his beard and staring in front of him, Gafan, who was holding a glass of juice in his hand, also sneered and looked at him sideways, firmly stating that he would not have the slightest respect for this old and disrespectful guy.

"...Young man, I think the way you look at me is disrespectful."

"Yes."

Gafan admitted frankly.

High Priest: "..."

In the lively square, outside the crowds reveling in celebrations and giant grilled fish, men and old people were staring at each other with unkind eyes.

At this moment, a melodious singing, as beautiful as the voice of a mermaid, suddenly came from the center of the crowd in the distance.

Then under Ga Fan's stunned gaze, the old man who was still competing with him suddenly cheered loudly with the crowd and ran over with a smile on his face.

He even glanced back at him midway, his face full of inexplicable showoff.

"..."

After silently drinking the juice and grabbing another plate of grilled squid from the table nearby, Gafan sighed helplessly and followed the direction of the singing.

After all, the song seemed to be sung by Jiahenuo, so he might as well go and have a look.

After squeezing through the crowd and arriving at a high platform in the square, Gafan also understood why the residents here, including the old man just now, suddenly cheered.

Because the beautiful mermaid-like sacrificial girl was singing loudly above her. Her moving voice was even transformed into a series of physical notes under the influence of her unique "song magic", beating happily in the air.

Surrounded by these notes, there is also a sacrificial youth with medium-long dark blue hair, who is performing a gorgeous dance like a swimming fish. The two swords in his hands also draw beautiful traces in the air. .

These two brothers and sisters are performing the best show at the celebration for everyone in the Undersea Temple.

"Hey, did you see it? The singing Jahno, and the dancing Qiyat, they are my granddaughter and grandson!"

A proud voice came from beside him.

Gafan looked sideways and found that the eccentric old man was dancing with excitement like a child. He was also pulling on his robe, as if he wanted to promote something to him.

"Isn't it awesome? Isn't it great!"

"There will never be two more outstanding kids like these in the entire Ocean Temple."

The old man rambled on, and Gafan listened helplessly.

If the other party wants to make some bad jokes on him, his flexible moral bottom line may just find a corner to bury the other party, that is, the kind where only the head is exposed.

But if he just wanted to show off his grandchildren to himself like he is now, he would be willing to listen patiently.

After all, he is quite flexible when it comes to the moral bottom line of respecting the elderly and caring for the young.

"I know, I know how great the brother and sister on the stage are."

Gafan smiled helplessly.

"But speaking of it, can you first tell me why you made those impolite jokes to me when we suddenly met? And the ashes were indulged in silkiness and so on, ahem."

When he heard this question, the old man stopped showing off and blew his beard again, showing an angry expression.

"That's because Jahno told me that you gave her a suggestion to sneak out with Chiat, and she asked honestly if I could do this?"

"Oh my god, can you imagine how messed up I was?!"

"Such a well-behaved child... It's not that just the fact that she directly asked me if I could sneak away was enough to make me confused."

That suggestion was not made by me, but by the system.

Gafan coughed twice on purpose silently, wanting to skip this topic directly.

"Ahem, what about that? Speaking of which, old man, I don't know your name yet. Can you tell me your name?"

"High Priest."

"Um, I meant name, not position."

Gafan reminded him, it's not that the other party's name was not mentioned even in the original work. His son, grandson and granddaughter were all mentioned and introduced.

"That's the high priest."

"...?"

Seeing the puzzled expression of the foreign guest in front of him, the old high priest explained casually.

"After becoming the high priest, I no longer have a name, so no matter what happened in the past, I am now called the high priest."

"Young man, this is our tradition here. It may seem strange to you, but there's nothing you can do about it. The rules are the rules, just like the tradition that we can't go out at will."

The high priest smiled as he watched the two people singing and dancing on the high platform, causing the crowd to cheer and bringing vitality to this isolated place.

"We have a lot of weird rules here, and you have to know that these have been passed down from generation to generation since ancient times and have never changed, just like our underwater temple that is closed and refuses to change."

"We have maintained the same situation here for too long. Even before the prefix of the kingdom was four-leaf clover, we already existed here."

The high priest looked at the high platform intently, having seen hundreds of performances before, and sighed softly.

"Although this is the home of those two children, they yearn more for the lively life outside and want to be some kind of idol. This has never changed since they were young. And I was opposed to it at the beginning. After all, the outside world is very complicated. Dangerous, but now..."

"I'm just proud of them."

And looking at the high priest's faint smile that was no longer weird and wretched as before, but like an ordinary old man, Gafan also silently continued to appreciate the magic singing and strange sword dance on the stage.

"It's a big world out there."

"Um."

“I don’t think it’s a bad option to let them go out and see more.”
