Chapter 444: Eldoria: Capital Of Elven Nation

Zero felt that presence disappear but couldn't understand the feeling that he got. However, he a.s.sumed it might have something to do with Guardian Deity.

( Is this because of Ancient Dragon's Heart that I ate? )

Zero thought to himself. He didn't fully understand the situation well but thought that Guardian Deity was looking or at least a.s.suming he was looking at him, it was because of the Ancient Dragon Heart that he ate.

Zero already knew that the roar was that of Dragon, though he couldn't differentiate between different Dragon species. But since the presence was of a powerful creature, it must be at least Rank-SS Dragon.

So, the chance of the Guardian Deity being an Ancient Deity was high. Zero thought that perhaps he might want to exact revenge as Zero had eaten its species heart.

He has his guard up but fortunately nothing happens and they resume their journey as normal. The journey was smooth and almost had zero encounters with monsters.

Because of the roar, it seems that most monsters have gone into hiding and they encountered no monster.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, the group finally arrived at the outskirts of Eldoria. The Elven Capital, now under the starlit night, appeared even more enchanting—an ethereal city adorned with ancient architecture, lush gardens, and the soft glow of mana flowing through its veins.

Approaching the outskirts of Eldoria, a sense of antic.i.p.ation and wonder filled the air. The human visitors were in awe of the Elven Capital's beauty and grace, a place they had only heard about in tales and legends.

At the gate of Eldoria, Elven guards stood watch under the moonlight. As they noticed Aranic and the humans, their vigilance eased. Word had reached them that humans were coming, so they greeted the group with less caution than before.

"Welcome to Eldoria, the heart of our Elven Kingdom. We are glad to have humans visit our beautiful city."

One of the guards came and said with a smile. He seemed to have a different personality than Aranic who has a stoic expression all the time.

"Thank you for the warm welcome," Nock replied, feeling a bit more at ease with the friendly greeting. "We've heard tales of Eldoria's beauty and magnificence, and it's an honor to finally set foot in your marvelous city."

The elven guard nodded, his eyes twinkling with amus.e.m.e.nt. "Though of course, we must remind you that there are rules in place. So, you mustn't behave inappropriately or else we might need to detain you."

"You may proceed. Enjoy your time in Eldoria, and if you need any a.s.sistance or guidance, don't hesitate to ask for help."

As the group ventured further into the Elven Capital, they were enveloped in an atmosphere of tranquility and magic. Tall trees with graceful branches lined the streets, forming a natural canopy that shielded them from the moon's gentle light.

The soft sound of water trickling from nearby fountains added a soothing melody to the ambiance. Eldoria was a bustling metropolis, where nature and architecture coexisted in perfect harmony.

Mia and Amelia were mesmerized by the Elven architecture, which harmoniously blended with nature. The buildings seemed to have grown seamlessly from the landscape, adorned with ancient runes and symbols that reflected the Elven affinity for magic and the mystic arts.

Nock and the other humans were equally captivated by the rich Elven culture. They were introduced to Elven art, music, and dance, all of which celebrated nature and the wonders of their magical world.

They were soon led to one of the biggest buildings that was in Eldoria, that is of course excluding the giant building with a wall surrounding them. It was apparent that it was the castle for the Elven Royals.

The Elven Royal Castle stood as a magnificent testament to the ancient and mystical heritage of the Elven race. Nestled within the heart of Eldoria, the castle seemed to blend seamlessly with its natural surroundings, as if it had been grown from the very earth and trees that surrounded it.

Its architecture was a mesmerizing fusion of nature and craftsmanship, exhibiting the Elven affinity for artistry and magic. The castle's structure was predominantly made of an opalescent white stone that shimmered softly in the moonlight, giving the impression of an otherworldly glow.

"We will inform you of the time when you will be granted an audience with the king. Until then, you may do whatever you like but don't break any laws. If you are thinking about exploring the place, one of the elves will be accompanying you."

Aranic said before leaving with other Elven Guards.

Nock nodded as he along with others entered the inn.

The inn they arrived at was known as "Starleaf Haven," a renowned establishment in Eldoria known for its exceptional hospitality and breathtaking view of the city's central garden.

As they entered the inn, they were greeted by the innkeeper, a friendly Elven lady with long, silver hair and eyes that sparkled like stars.

"Welcome to Starleaf Haven," she said with a warm smile. "We've been expecting you. Aranic has informed us of your arrival."

The innkeeper continued, "You must be tired after your journey. Please, make yourselves comfortable. We have prepared rooms for all of you. If you are hungry, you may go to the dining hall."

The interior of the inn was as enchanting as the exterior. Elven motifs adorned the walls, and soft, melodic music played in the background, creating a serene atmosphere.

They were shown to their rooms, each decorated with elegant simplicity and a touch of magic.

Zero along with Mia and Amelia had come to the dining hall as they were pretty hungry. Zero, in particular, was excited as he really liked Elves cooking.

As they settled into the cozy dining hall, the tantalizing aroma of Elven cuisine filled the air. The smell has not disappointed Zero at all.

Zero's eyes widened with excitement as he scanned the menu, filled with dishes he had never even heard of before. Obviously, all of the dishes were going to be vegetarian and some of the people were not exactly happy with that.

However, remembering Zero's and Williams' reaction, they didn't complain. What if they were to get beaten up? When even William, who is unrestrained, kept quiet, they were at least sensible enough to know that they shouldn't mess with Zero.

The innkeeper, still with a warm smile, approached their table.

"Welcome, esteemed guests. What will you be eating?"

"The name is unique and we don't really know what it is."

Mia said. Even if the dishes were similar to humans, the name was different. So, even reading the menu, the only thing that they got was confusion.

"Allow me to recommend some of our finest dishes to savor tonight."

The innkeeper graciously listed a variety of dishes, each sounding more mouthwatering than the last. She described the dishes that she recommended.

They settled on a diverse a.s.sortment, including delicately seasoned roasted vegetables, enchanted fruit salads that glimmered with a magical essence, and many others.

As they dined, Zero couldn't help but marvel at the culinary artistry before him. The flavors burst in his mouth, combining in ways he had never imagined.

"Would you like to explore the city with us?"

Amelia asked Zero. Zero, who was savoring the flavor from the food, paused for a second and nodded.

There was nothing he had planned to do and exploring the place seemed interesting.
