Chapter 181: The Surprised Girl
.........
At the foot of the mountains, within the forest ruins.
Soon after Anvis and his companion ventured deep into the mountains, the tranquility of the forest was once again broken by a set of light footsteps.
With splendid pure golden hair and eyes as blue as the ocean, the figure of a Half-Elf girl arrived at the glade sprinkled with fine golden sunlight.
The girl was clothed in a tight-fitting leather traveler’s coat, with a sturdy fabric short cape draped over her slender shoulders, which had been enchanted for extra storage space, filled with various Alchemy Tools and exploring supplies.
Having ventured deep into the uninhabited wilderness and mountains of the island, Claire had dispensed with her rather cumbersome and uncomfortable disguise and reverted to her true appearance.
In the girl’s hand, she held a slightly delicate female’s One-Handed Sword.
The body of the sword was made of a dull silver-grey metal, invisible currents swirling around the thin blade, with tiny, mysterious Dark Gold Inscriptions etched upon the spine of the sword.
The vine-like hollowed-out hilt extended smoothly, protecting the girl’s pale and delicate hands.
More than a weapon of war, it resembled an exquisite and beautiful work of art.
