Chapter 31 - Captain Bette's Experience

"It's not a political matter at all!" Ron replied, using the biological knowledge he had learned on Earth: "The duke is doing this to alleviate the problems of the living environment. If this method can increase the population, it would be a joke."

"Oh? Knight Ron, what's your opinion?" Bette asked curiously.

What opinion could Ron have? He only knew that if the living environment was bad, animals would choose not to reproduce. This was a natural law.

Of course, it was meaningless to talk about this with Bette because neither of them were policymakers.

Even if they were, they would probably do the same thing as the duke. After all, people at different positions view things from different perspectives.

From the perspective of the common people, they naturally hope that the rulers can solve various basic needs of the people, such as improving their quality of life.

But from the perspective of the rulers, how to quickly achieve their goals is what they pursue.

"Captain Bette, this is not a topic we should discuss." Ron didn't want to continue this topic, so he took the initiative to end it.

"You're right!" Bette smiled: "So, are you going back now or staying here to chat with me some more?"

"Let's just chat!" Ron took a sip of coffee to hide his embarrassment.

"Ha ha!" Bette laughed loudly. He knew Ron didn't dare to go back to the room but didn't expose him. Instead, he said:

"Anyway, we have time. How about telling you about my experiences traveling around these years?"

"With great pleasure!"

Bette lowered his head and thought for a while, then said slowly: "I remember the first place I went was a place called Dopa Island. It's at the northwest end of the entire Findildo Continent.

You know, Lane Town is at the southeast corner of the continent. Starting from Mino Port, you need to go around the entire continent to reach there.

Not only is the distance long, but there are also many dangers along the way. But I still insisted on going.

Because I heard that it was the hometown of the elf clan, I wanted to go and have a look no matter what.

After several years of sailing, I really found Dopa Island and saw many long-eared elves there.

The male elves are nothing to talk about. They are all handsome and charming, but they look a bit feminine. You know, real men hate sissies.

But the female elves are all fair-skinned, beautiful, and graceful...

Let me tell you! Do you know! The skin of those female elves is smoother than water, than... (Three thousand words omitted here)"

When Ron saw that Bette couldn't stop talking about the female elves and listened for a long time, he really couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted him.

"Alright! Mr. Bette, I understand. Those female elves are very beautiful!"

"Uh!" Bette was talking excitedly and was in a high mood when he was suddenly interrupted by Ron. He felt as uncomfortable as eating a fly. He was stunned for a long time before regaining his senses and said:

"Knight Ron, you are really so unromantic. How can a sentence of 'very beautiful' express the appearance of those beautiful elves? Their waists are like..."

Seeing that Bette was about to continue, Ron could only widen his eyes and glare at Bette fiercely.

When Bette saw that the situation was not right, he stopped and changed the topic and said:

"Where were we just now? Oh! Right, we were talking about when I landed on the island."

"Because I was only exploring at that time, I didn't bring many goods and couldn't provide much help to the elves. But even so, the local elf clan still warmly welcomed me. And invited me to their bonfire party!"

"You don't know. Their bonfire party was very interesting. It was actually their beauty pageant party. Of course, their beauty pageant was different from ours. They mainly chose partners."

"All the eligible female elves would dress up and attend the bonfire party that night. If a male elf liked a female elf, they would stand behind that female elf."

"If there were more than two male elves behind a certain female elf, then the male elves would have to duel to win the date with that female elf."

Hearing this, Ron raised the corner of his mouth: "Then there's no need to guess. With your personality, you must have participated. How was the result?"

"Hehe!" Bette smiled smugly: "You guessed right. Under their warm invitation... Hey, what kind of look is that?"

When hearing "under their warm invitation", Ron lowered half of his eyelids and rolled his eyes to express his disdain.

"It's true!" Bette said firmly:

"It was definitely not that I was shameless and insisted on going up. The elves present at that time could testify. And I chose the most beautiful girl."

"You don't know how many male elves were behind her. Let's just say that if they lined up, it would be longer than my sailing distance.

But this didn't scare me. With my excellent strength, firm spirit, and unyielding will, I defeated one elf male after another, created history for humans, and finally got the beauty!"

Ron thought his mouth was already tough enough and he was also a person who was particularly good at bragging. But after hearing Bette's story, he could only admit defeat.

Because he really couldn't listen anymore, he finally sighed and said: "Tell the truth!"

"Alright!" Bette smiled awkwardly and said dejectedly: "Those elves deserve the title of natural mages. I was beaten to the ground by them!"

"Ha ha!" Ron couldn't help laughing.

"But!" Bette suddenly smiled smugly again:

"Finally, a beautiful elf goddess took pity on me. Maybe she thought I was pitiful, or maybe my unyielding will infected her. She chose me and had a wonderful night with me!"

"Really?"

"Of course! It's absolutely true!"

"And then?"

"Then?" At this point, Bette's expression suddenly became somewhat painful:

"There was no later! When I woke up the next day, I found myself back on the ship and drifting at sea. If it weren't for the ring she gave me on my finger, I would have thought it was just a dream."

"After that, I desperately wanted to go back and look for Dopa Island, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't find it."

"Every time I approached the location marked on the map, a vast fog would rise on the sea, making it impossible to sail."

"Finally, seeing that there was almost no supply left on the ship, I had to give up."

"When I came back, I told this to my cousins. They were also very interested. Among them, my cousin Joseph set off immediately."

"When he came back, I learned. The Dopa Island I went to was just an outer island of the elf hometown. It's still some distance from the real elf hometown, Artoria. And the elves don't like humans. They only allow each human to go there once in a lifetime!"

"Joseph Moore?" Ron exclaimed.

In this small place of Lane, almost everyone knew Joseph. He was the first human to do business with the elves.

And the rule that each human can only go to the elf island once in a lifetime doesn't apply to him.

By selling weapons blessed by the elves, he not only made money but was also successfully awarded the title of baron, and it was hereditary.

"I knew you would be surprised when you heard my cousin's name." Bette smiled wryly:

"He became a trading partner with the elves and did business all the way to the imperial capital. An elf-blessed sword can sell for a thousand gold."

Ron nodded: "Indeed! I also want to ask him to help bless my Champion's Glory."

"If you have the opportunity, you should go and take a look yourself!" Bette suggested:

"Of course, if you really want to go, don't let my niece know. After all, the female elves there are not joking."

"What are you thinking about all day?" Ron smiled wryly: "Even if I have the opportunity to go and take a look, at most I'll just go and get my sword blessed."

"Humph! How dare you say what I think about all day? At most, I just think about it all day. But you, you are taking action all day long!" At this point, Bette smirked: "But, I believe what you said! You are a responsible man!"
