Pillar of Yita

The latter held a large book and awkwardly adjusted his glasses. His voice was crisp and pleasant but slightly breathless:, ”... This poem first started to spread around Rainbow Bay, and later, people really found an obelisk in the Abyssal Sea, which indeed had a partially intact map on it.”

”Yes, exactly—,” Tianlan quickly nodded and responded, ”The secret of the Elf Holy Grail lies beneath the seven obelisks, and this rumor has spread among the Invokers near the Cloud Sea. Everyone’s heading to Rainbow Bay now.”

”The Elf Holy Grail?”

Fang Hong had never heard this name before, but of course, Eteliria was a world filled with secrets, and it was normal that there were artifacts from several eras ago that he hadn’t heard of.

But just by the name, if this Holy Grail indeed existed and was named after the Numelin Elves, it should also be an object as symbolic as the Hailin Crown and the Morning Light Holy Sword.

However, Fang Hong was skeptical—he had seen the Hailin Crown with his own eyes, and if the Hailin Crown existed, the corresponding treasure, the Morning Light Holy Sword, should also exist in this world.

It was already very rare for two treasures to appear at the same time.

And as for the Elf Holy Grail, it was currently just a rumor; although the existence of the obelisk did hint at something, it wasn’t much. In Eteliria, similar legends and rumors were too abundant, spreading from Rainbow Bay to the southern regions of the Cloud Sea, in the bars and alleys, whispered under the eaves, passed from one Bard to another, too numerous to count...

Tianlan seemed to sense his thoughts and whispered, ”Miss Atira’s brother, it’s said that he ran away from home in search of the Elf Holy Grail. He had joined the first Adventure Group that discovered the obelisk in the Abyssal Sea, and left a resurrection record there in the Holy Sanctuary.”

Fang Hong then somewhat understood.

He looked in that direction again and asked softly, ”So you’re saying, there’s also an obelisk in Traveler’s Forest, and Miss Atira’s brother came here for it? And you’re here to investigate this obelisk too?”

”Wow, you’re really smart, Brother Ade, you guessed it right away,” Tianlan exaggerated, ”That’s exactly what we’re here for, we’re even planning to make it the subject of our graduation exam, right, Tata?”

”Tata?”

Fang Hong was briefly confused, thinking she knew his Dragon Soul. He instinctively glanced over his left shoulder, only to find that Miss Fairy wasn’t there. Thinking about it, she had disappeared before, perhaps because she didn’t want outsiders to see her?

He was puzzled.

But the boy holding the large book nodded, ”We heard there’s an obelisk in Traveler’s Forest, and the Adventure Group has even posted a task for it, offering a hundred points to any Adventurer who finds any clues about it.”

”Tata is called Gita,” Tianlan whispered to him, ”Don’t be fooled by his tiny appearance, he’s a genius with an extraordinary Memory and aspires to become a Natural Historian.”

”Gita, Gita?”

”Hello, Mr. Ade,” the little boy was very shy and hurriedly returned the greeting, ”Thank you for intervening earlier—Ah!” Overwhelmed, he bowed his head and his glasses also fell off.

He then clumsily fumbled on the ground for them.

Tianlan kindly helped him pick them up and handed them over. The little boy took his glasses and apologized to them with a red face.

”Wait, your name is Gita?” Fang Hong curiously looked at him.

”Is there a problem, sir?”

”No,” Fang Hong scratched his head, ”I just feel like I’ve heard this name somewhere before, and I vaguely feel a pain in my liver—”

The little boy looked at him, puzzled.
