Chapter 164 (1/2)

Elena was Eliard's lover This was hardly a secret, especially in Herrera's Mage Tower as they had started cohabitating

In their daily conversations, Eliard would often coentle and kind Elena was He would even proudly discuss Elena's outstanding perforht when he was in the mood Whenever the topic was on Elena, Eliard had an expression of bliss, as though he had the whole world in his palms

He had completely become a servant to love

Even though Link did not have a good impression of Elena, she was, after all, Eliard's beloved partner He could only stay as far away as possible

Other than being sche of Elena It was not surprising if you thought about her background, as she came froht in front of hiency bells in his head

After talking to the merchant for around ten minutes, Elena suddenly embraced the merchant and kissed him on the lips The kiss lasted for three seconds before Elena let go of the merchant and walked away nonchalantly The merchant, on the other hand, stayed in the forest and stared lovingly at Elena's disappearing shadow

Link had a clear view of the entire scenario frole He immediately frowned, Eliard is definitely unaware of this However, he will realize it sooner or later, I am afraid…

Thinking back on the look of bliss on Eliard's face, Link was certain that Eliard would be devastated

”Should I tell Eliard?” Link was having a headache

Link had no evidence of the incident If he had told Eliard directly, Elena would likely deny all accusations and use her charm to trap Eliard in her web of lies As Eliard was blinded by love, he would definitely believe her side of the story and turn his back on Link

However, if he chose to ignore and keep it a secret from Eliard Eliard was sure to be devastated when he realized the truth Judging from his character, he would probably not harm Elena, butin self-pity and despair alone

Love is indeed a volatile and luxurious good If it does not turn out well, it ician, Link could not help but exclaim silently

After thinking for a et a deeper understanding of her personality If he deemed her character to be seriously flawed, he would then find chances to give subtle hints to Eliard

He then stayed in the forest for another five minutes until both the ht He then walked back to Herrera's Mage Tower The moment he opened the door, he saw Eliard and Elena on the first floor

They were flipping through uide Elena along and answer her queries Elena would then look at hiive a warm and tender smile in return

Link even saw Elena wearing a necklace that he had created As he recalled Eliard's expression that day when he was asking for a favor, Link could not help but sigh

At that ave a quick peck on Eliard's cheek while he was absorbed in the ic book Eliard then broke out into a silly smile That was almost Link's li to erase those memories from his brain

For the next few days, Link spent alic research When he felt tired, he would delve fanatically into crafting ic equipment The equipment would then be passed to Warter for sale Occasionally, Lucy would write to inforress of the Ferde Wilderness' initial development Link did not participate physically in the entire process, old coins as funding This was so even when the mercenary band started missions to clear up the bandit's hideout in the area At the sa Elena

He placed a secretiveas Elena left the Mage Tower alone, her unique ic fornal to Link If she was leaving with Eliard, the ic fornal, he would follow behind stealthily

Tiht Elena in the forest In this period, Elena left the Mage Tower alone for a total of eight times The duration was always a standard 30 minutes and her reason of absence was always that she needed some fresh air

In these eight separate instances, Link saw a different side of Elena

She would always meet a merchant in secret in the forest Further! Link had counted a total of six different rounds Each of thosea close business relationshi+p with a Master Magician in the academy However, Elena seemed to be able to keep her multiple intimate relationshi+ps a secret from each of her lovers Every merchant seemed to be bewitched by her charm

Not only was her private life complicated, but Link was horrified to discover that Elena had entle and kind towards Eliard, she could be cold, elegant, seductive or even submissive to the other merchants She displayed each character naturally and with ease There were almost no flaws in her facade

This wo She definitely has a round was simply a farce!

Link was extremely careful every time and kept a distance between Elena and hi him to miss out on the content of their conversation However, based on what he had observed, he had already developed suspicion towards Elena's true identity

Link's continued atteer an act sie threat, even to the point of suspecting that she was connected to the Black Moon Conspiracy This was due to her multiple secret inti more sinister

Link then used a Suprerasped to set up an extreic formation to eavesdrop on the conversation
