Book 10: Chapter 36
“Do you remember the battle to capture the elves’ city wall with the old elves back then? Both sides suffered plenty of casualties. It was really interesting.”
“Yeah, the number of corpses from that battle was high as the city wall.”
The young girl listened to the two men, who were up in the clouds quietly, discussing among themselves. She dawdled for a moment. The girl next to her noticed her gaze, so she tugged her arm. She giggled, “What, do you like one of them?”
“No, sorry. I want to go and listen to them.”
The two fellows paused. They looked at the girl who walked over to their side and pulled a seat out to sit down. They opened up their notebook in front of them. The young girl whipped her hair that was a gradient of black and burgundy. She looked at the two of them, “If you can tell me about that war, I would be very grateful… My father… never shared his war experiences with me…”
One of them shrugged. He looked at her, “It’s normal for him not to. If possible, I wouldn’t want my daughter to have to do with such a bloody war either.”
“But courage and loyalty are displayed in such wars, aren’t they? That goes for both sides.”
The girl looked at them. Her rosy eyes moved back and forth between the two guys. The two of them hesitated for a moment, and then exchanged glances of distress. One of them then cleared his throat, “All right, then. This is all the different information we gathered… We plan to use it for our history classes… Mm… At the time… when humanity’s army attacked the old city door… mm… this one here…”
