Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 605 World 63

The little sprite was taken away by the arriving guide and didn't reappear for several days.

Stella followed the crowd and went to see it once, only to find that the cubs were still sleeping anytime, anywhere, just like they were in the fruit.

Fortunately, the cub's guide is of water element, gentle and quiet, and exceptionally tolerant of the cub, so they get along very well.

Once they were a distance away, Lucas whispered, "This guy is surprisingly capable; you'd never guess he overpowered his kin to become the leader."

“How can that be the same?” Damian said. “Only the most powerful elves, with enough ability to protect their young, can become guides.”

"But once you become a guide, when facing cubs, it's not just about force anymore."

"Like the King teaching Stella, Robert treated me."

Damian paused for a moment and then asked Lucas, "Did your guide beat you up?"

“Of course not!” Lucas jumped up and retorted, “If he heard me say that, he’d hug me and cry.”

“That settles it,” Damian glanced at Stella, who was silent beside him, and grabbed Lucas. “Come on, tell Stella what you told me last time.”

Lucas followed Damian to his studio and rubbed his hair. "Stella, the other day a cub said he had never been to the lake near the temple and wanted to go see it."

"Because their guides were too busy, they entrusted the task to me."

"But it was my idea to go and push open the temple door."

“I saw signs that the temple had been opened, and I was worried that something had happened, so I went over there.”

"When I came back that day, I didn't come to Mian because the cubs kept me for a gathering, and it was already very late when it ended."

Lucas finished speaking, somewhat puzzled: "Stella, you specifically had Damian ask me these questions, do you think there's something wrong?"

Stella shook her head: "Since it's a coincidence, then it's fine. What I'm afraid of is that someone might have led you there."

"If I hadn't happened to be in the temple at that time, and the curious cubs hadn't been unable to open the main gate, would they have tried to get in by other means?"

“If the cubs get hurt as a result,” Stella frowned, “you’d better be extra careful.”

Lucas and Damian nodded in unison: "We'll be careful."

“That would be wonderful,” Stella said with a smile. “I’m going out to travel early tomorrow morning, so please remember to contact me. And if you’re also going out to travel soon, don’t forget to look for me!”

“It’s scheduled for tomorrow? So soon,” Damian said, then quickly grabbed a folding cabinet of clothes for Stella. “Most of the clothes I gave you before were formal wear; only nobles could wear everyday clothes.”

"Robert said he would prepare some civilian clothes for you, but time was short, so I didn't make many. You'll have to make do with these for now. I'll bring you new ones when I have the chance later."

“Thank you, Damian, this is more than enough,” Stella gave him a hug. “I think I’ll be back soon, but you’ll all miss me!”

Lucas said with some annoyance, "I also prepared something for you, Stella, but I didn't bring it with me. Wait for me, I'll go back and get it right away!"

Stella quickly grabbed him: "Isn't there tomorrow morning? Aren't you going to take me?"

“Of course not,” Lucas was momentarily speechless, feeling that all the flowery language he had used in the past was now wasted.

But the things he brought to Stella early the next morning were all useful.

The Elven race produces fruits, gems that can be exchanged for money, herbs, and all sorts of other things.

Stella bid them farewell once more and finally stood before the Elf King.

The Elf King looked at her and instructed, "Don't linger outside for too long."

The purpose of the journey was to train the fairies and elves' survival skills. Of course, cheating was not allowed, and Stella naturally wouldn't be able to come back every day like she could at Eugene's house.

So this time, Stella truly leaves the guide's side.

“Okay,” Stella agreed cheerfully. “Your Majesty, please take good care of yourself. Even though I’m not here, please remember to think of me!”

Lucas gave a thumbs up, his eyes filled with admiration for her courage in speaking to the king like that.

Stella ignored him, and after receiving a slight nod from the Elf King, she smiled and turned away.

This time, Stella didn't use the little greenhouse as a means of transportation, because she could now reach the edge of the Elf Forest in a short time on her own.

Stella donned the robes of a sorcerer, glanced back, put on her hood, and left the Elf Forest.

In fact, outside the Elf Forest is also a dense forest, but from here on, the traces of magical beasts and human activities gradually increase.

Stella had been taken by Robert through a teleportation magic circle, so she knew how to get there and the price. She didn't stop along the way and chose the magic circle as a transit point.

Her sudden appearance alone on the outskirts of the Elf Forest in her magic robes was initially quite eye-catching, but after she entered the teleportation array directly, no one paid her much attention anymore.

While it's true that one shouldn't flaunt their wealth, it depends on the situation.

Someone like Stella, who wears a magic robe and can afford a teleportation array, is clearly not someone from the lower class who can be easily manipulated.

Stella swaggered through the magic circle to the capital of the Snowan Empire, and found Eugene's house by memory.

As luck would have it, she spotted Catherine on horseback outside the door, as well as two other unfamiliar but elegantly dressed men and women.

Stella knew from how others addressed them that these were the Crown Prince of the Shean Empire and his cousin, Miss Erskine.

"Catherine, what do you mean by this? His Highness and I kindly invited you on a trip, and this is how you try to fob us off?"

Catherine didn't even bother to dismount, and said condescendingly, "What do you mean by 'making excuses'? I'm clearly refusing openly and honestly."

"His Highness the Crown Prince has already agreed that I won't go, Miss Erskine, why are you still insisting? What are you trying to do?"

“Cousin,” Prince Xue’an finally stepped forward to dissuade Miss Erskine, “Catherine just returned from her trip and is exhausted. You really shouldn’t force yourself.”

Miss Erskine, upon hearing this, softened her tone and said, "Cousin, I was just thinking that she's about to go to the Holy Magic Academy and won't be back for a while. We're having a banquet tonight, so we can all see her off together."

“The banquet is all set up now, and everyone says they want to go, but we’re missing a key person. That won’t do.”

"Duke Dumi and the others are waiting to ask Catherine what she plans to bring to the Holy Magic Academy."

As she spoke, Miss Erskine turned her head to look at Catherine, her eyes full of malice: "I guess she needs at least one servant of archmage level or higher, otherwise, with Catherine's magical talent, how could she possibly stay at the Holy Magic Academy?"

"Catherine, am I right?"
