" what happened to you" the king then looked at me " what did you do to my daughter " the elven king said looking at me visibly pissed
Elise, Emily and I were in the dining room of the elven palace we came here after waking up to get Elise double checked by zamel when we woke up and went to breakfast everyone was shocked by Elise transformation but they like that went double for Emily since she now looked similar to her mother
After breakfast we took Emily and teleported to the elven kingdom to get Elise checked again
I looked at the king starting to get a little mad because he was blaming me for this plus he wasn't thinking how Elise could take his words i held Elise's hand " it's not my fault this happened....I think and watch how you talk about her she didn't turn into a monster or something don't make her feel like one "
The veins on Elise's father head started to pop as his face got red he opened his mouth to yell at me but the queen covered his mouth with her hand " you should go see zamel let me have a private talk with him nodding we walked out
" mama why was grandpa so mad " Emily asked as we walked the halls to zamel study Elise raised her head to look at her daughter it hurt a little to see her father react like that although it was understandable why
" because some people don't like change sweetheart but don't worry about it he will come around " Emily nodded skipping next to us
When we got to zamel's study Elise busted in like always " who dar- " zamel started to yell but stopped when he saw he was confused then shocked " how what happened " he then looked at me then Emily " never mind what do you need " I don't understand why everyone keeps blaming me for this
" can you do a check up on me I want to make sure everything is ok my transformation was rough last night " zamel nodded getting up " sure let's have a look at you" Elise sat down on his desk as he came around putting a hand on her body
He slowly moved his hand around as a green light came out of it I looked at Elise to see if there was a response from his touch but there wasn't one ' I guess it really is just me it triggers for ' thinking this made me a bit happy that only I could get her to react like that zamel moved his hand away when he was done
" everything is alright better even there are some differences obviously "he points at her wings " but from what I can tell your doing great and like I said your body also seems stronger then before you shouldn't be hindered by the damage to your second heart to much " we were all happy to hear this
although elves can live without a heart because they have two on each-side of their chest it puts a strain on their bodies making them tire out faster they also lose a bit of mana but it can be useful in a life or death situation it's another of the reason the elves held ground against the humans for so long even though they were outnumbered
After letting zamel check Elise a little longer for research we went back to the dining room to talk to her parents when we entered the king seemed to have calmed down when Elise to a breath she made a strange face then noticed her mother's clothes being a bit disheveled getting a idea of what happened she chuckled holding my hand
getting a feeling she was being judged the queen looked at her daughter " what " Elise shook her head " it's nothing I just find it funny how similar we are when it comes to handling some things in our relationships " the queen blushed looking away at that moment the king coughed to get our attention
" I'm sorry if what I said hurt you no matter what you do or how you look you'll always be my daughter and I'll always love you " the queen nodded as he said the last part agreeing with her husband Elise held back tears as she when over to her parents hugging them tight " thank you that means a lot love you too " they stood together for a few seconds as a loving family
The queen eventually pulled away smiling
" now let's get a good look at you" Elise stood back to let her parents get a good view of her " your eyes and skin are more vibrant can you use your wings " the queen asked pointing at them Elise shook her head spread her wings out " not yet I'm still getting used to them zame said I was alright so I should be able to it will just take some practice " Emily chimed in " I'll help teach you mama " Elise looked back at her smiling " I'll hold you too that when we get back "
Hearing about us leaving again I saw the smile fade away form the queen's face " do you have to go so soon " Elise nodded " yes I'm sorry but we have a meeting with the Dwarven king for his rewards since he won the tournament the king held" not wanting to distance herself from them Elise added some more " but we can stay today if that's fine I could use the time too get some clothes made too"
Smiling again the queen grabbed her daughter's had " of course your always welcome here let's go see about some new clothes " Smiling the two of them left ' I guess that leaves me with Emily ' I thought
" your lucky I don't have you thrown in a dungeon and given to the human kingdom " I nod " true but you also know I wouldn't be easy to capture " just then I felt Emily tug at me " papa can we go to the garden I really like that place " I smiled at her " of course we can it's one of my favorite places too" i picked Emily up and started to walk out the room but just I left I stopped
" I know it's probably not the first time I have said this but I am truly sorry for the trouble I have caused you " the king growled looking away " just keep my daughter safe and happy anyways everything you've done hasn't been bad just try to keep the war starting actions to a minimum " I smiled waving as I left " I'll do my best " while smiling I walked down the hall to the garden holding Emily in my arms
I spent time with Emily in the garden while Elise went out with her mom I would have taken Emily out at some point but i did know how the people would react to me because of how I left so I didn't want to risk it so I just played and hung out with Emily in the garden for most of the day
Around noon a maid brought us some food she was followed by Liam in his floating chair " hey how have you been it's been a minute " Liam floated over to the table we were eating at gently setting the chair down " I've been doing alright just trying to keep myself busy with my creations but what about you I've been hearing all kinds of things since you left "
I began explaining what I was doing while I was gone up to the point of the tournament
" since we are on the topic " I held out my hand causing my staff to fly into it " during my first fight my staff got bent do you think you can fix it " I said handing him my staff Liam easily took hold of it he was the only one the enchantment on the staff didn't work on which makes since it would be kinda dumb if the one who made it couldn't hold it
" wow someone actually managed to bend it " he said as he examined the staff he put some of his mana in the staff to make the blades pop out but one malfunctioned Liam hummed to himself as he turned the staff around
" I should be able to fix but in return could you help me with one of my projects before you leave " I nodded to him " of course I don't mind your my friend after all "
Liam cracked a big smile " great please come to my room tomorrow morning " he didn't say anymore and started floating back to his room happy he didn't even finish his food completely leaving half of it
I smiled glad he was happy I've been a bit worried about him since he lost his leg
When he was gone Emily and I continued eating when we were done we went back to wandering the garden Elise found us when the sun started to set and together we watched the plants in the garden start to glow " I will never get tired of this its so beautiful " I said gently rubbing the leaf of a tree its veins are glow a bright blue with hints of white
" did you not have plants like this in your world " Elise asked even though we have been together for awhile I haven't told Elise much about the world I came from
I shook my head " no not really it was mostly deep sea fish and some insects never anything like this maybe if there were more things like this I wouldn't hold so much resentment "we continued watching the plants for a few minutes before walking back to the castle to dinner
