THE LAST HOBBIT'S

48 - Meeting Back

"Sophyia?"

Arslan did not see wrong. The subject in black robes and standing in front of her room with this mysterious manner was none other than Sofia Bellwings, an elf who had been her best friend even in such a short time.

"What are you doing here?" arslan's tone of voice is flat. The light on the magic wand dimmed. He also kept the gun back because Sofia was definitely not a stranger.

Sofia starts to open the hood that covers her head. Her red hair was visible and to be honest, her facial skin was indeed very beautiful.

"Arslan, why do you talk like that?" Sofia open the sound. His cheeks were slightly red as he said, "Are you not at all happy to meet me? You're short, smelly, shitty."

"..............." Arslan said nothing. She just took a slow breath and then went inside her room, past Sofia. Her actions naturally made the red-haired beautiful elf dumbfounded.

Arslan hadn't heard the word 'short, stinky, shitty' in a long time'. Moreover, all this time who always said so was only the Princess of Elmora Kingdom who could somehow exist in this place.

!

Arslan's steps stopped as he remembered something. Soon, he turned around and looked at the 16-year-old girl.

Arslan opened his voice, "How did you know I was in this place?"

Sofia flickered, the tone of voice of the 1.3 meter tall young man before her sounded as if he was suspecting her. He replied, "I'm following you. What else is it?"

"Since when?" Arslan frowned.

"I saw you and An while you were in Elmora Kingdom, you were walking around in the market. At first I thought I saw it wrong, but when Nature and I followed you to the Lunar Orchis... We know that it's really you."

Sofia crossed her arms and then said, "By the way. Didn't you and An leave Elmora Kingdom before? Why are you guys at Lunar Orchis?"

Arslan looked at Sofia. He took a breath and softly said, "Me and An were kidnapped. Then we were taken to the Lunar Orchis,"

"What?" Sofia looked towards An who was lying on the bed. An looked very soundly asleep, it seemed like the subject did not know about his arrival.

"You and An were kidnapped?" Sofia flashes. He looked back at Arslan and said, "Is that Helena from the Lunar Orchis doing it?"

"Mrs,"

"Then how can you walk in the market? I even saw Helena take you and An when you left,"

"......... It was kidnapped at first, but after that we were treated like guests."

"Stellar Stones are indeed rare and extremely valuable items, but I didn't know that it was that easy for you to convince a Helena Vennamous," Sofia scratched softly at her non-itchy head before sighing. "That's it, what matters is you and An are fine."

"Mn," Arslan nodded slowly, without even asking. "You came here alone? Where is Natur?"

"She went to buy something, will be here soon. That's why I'm standing in front of your room" Sofia walked over to one of the chairs inside this room. There was a teapot of water and he without hesitation poured water on the glass in front of him.

"You're following me and An... Why should I hide?" Arslan sat in the other chair and watched Sofia drink water in her glass.

Sofia looked at the young man before her and said, "Of course it should be done. Especially before we part, you won't let me come with you at all. Aren't we a team? What the fuck? You go and just take An, hmph."

"You're a 'Mr Princess'. How could you just leave your own kingdom? Moreover, wasn't your kingdom recently attacked by a traitor? You shouldn't have left, let alone followed me here."

"The matter about the traitor was already taken care of enough by my father and brother. The royal magic knights were not that weak either until I had to intervene. Anyways... I'm not helping anything at all,"

Arslan exhaled, he lowered his gaze and asked again. "Then what about the selection of magic knights? You and Natur weren't in that election?"

".............." Sofia pouted, her voice softly as she said. "Nature and I are coming, but... It doesn't feel too good because you and An don't exist..."

!

"Without you and An... It feels different. To be honest... We became a bit lonely" Sofia continued, and did not seem to know that Arslan's facial expression had changed a bit.

Arslan was indeed quite impressed to hear the words of this elf girl. The sparkle in his eyes changed, but quickly returned to how it was. He looked very calm and then started to open his voice.

Arslan said, "Despite that... You should stay home. King Elmora must be looking for you, you're again making your own father anxious."

"No," Sofia excitedly said. "This time I'm going well. I got permission to go out and have an adventure from Dad,"

"Really?" Arslan raised his eyebrows, looking in disbelief.

"You can ask Natur when he comes here. I even prepared my supplies as best I could,"

"..............." seeing how happy Sofia was at the moment made Arslan feel that the beautiful elf in front of her had actually obtained permission from King Elmora to go on an adventure.

Arslan exhaled, he felt that this would definitely be very troublesome. But a little deep in his heart... He doesn't hate this at all.
