Volume 4 Chapter 92 - Whereabouts of the halflings (1/2)

As fall came, for the other places of the Sines Continent, the weather gradually became colder. For the Stantine Duchy, it was no different from summer, this place was still warm and damp.

Whether it was on earth or in the Lampuri Kingdom, Xu Yi never had the chance or time to go swimming that much. After he arrived in the Stantine Duchy, because of the weather and because he lived by the sea, Xu Yi had gradually formed a habit of going swimming in the ocean.

He even chose a special part of the beach and invested funds to make a beach swimming facility.

In their free time, the workers of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce brought their families to swim by the beach.

The Stantine Duchy’s weather was hot and moist, so this beach was very popular and would always be lively.

Of course, Xu Yi wouldn’t go to the beach with a bunch of people.

Not far from his cliff on the manor, there was another beach that was opened which was considered his private beach.

Other than going with a crowd to the public beach sometimes, Xu Yi spent most of his time swimming and relaxing here.

Today was a bright sunny day, so Xu Yi went to his private beach after he finished his work.

Still also had a day off today, so she and Liz brought Freya to the beach to play.

Freya was currently one and a half years old, so she couldn’t go in the sea, but she was very interested in the soft sand. Whether it was letting her feet sink in the sand or grabbing it and creating piles, she looked very happy.

Seeing the bright smile on Freya’s face, Xu Yi suddenly gave a sigh, “A child really can find things that make them happy easily.”

Still looked at him, “What? You’re thinking of her highness again? I just asked her, but she’s not willing to come.”

Xu Yi shook his head, “I really don’t know what she encountered, why did she suddenly become this depressed? She’s already been here for two months and she still stays in her room all day. If she keeps staying in, I’m worried that something will happen to her.”

Still slightly knit her brows, “I’ve talked to her many times, but she’s not willing to speak. It seems like she met something very serious and won’t tell others easily. If my guess isn’t wrong, it should be related to the royal family.”

“Royal family?” Xu Yi knit his brows, “There aren’t many people in the Lampuri Kingdom royal family and she’s not planning on taking the throne, so Eric naturally won’t cause trouble for her. What is she worried about?”

“I don’t know that, but the royal family is the darkest place among all the nobles. Her highness has grown up in the royal family and can have a bright, warm, and direct personality, it really is rare.”

“That should be Lampuri Thirteenth protecting her well.” Xu Yi said with a sigh, “It’s a pity that she’s become like this, I really am curious as to what happened.”

“That is a secret of the royal family, her highness wouldn’t tell others casually, so stop thinking about it.” Still shook her head, “If you want to help her, then give her time and let her adjust. Her highness has a strong personality, I believe that she’ll definitely be able to walk out of the shadows.”

“Un…..There’s no other way, we can only wait patiently.” Xu Yi took a deep breath and shook his head, throwing out his worry for Seveni. He looked over Still and revealed a lewd smile, “Hey, Still, this swimsuit you have really is great.”

When Still came with Xu Yi to the beach before, she wore a traditional cloth swimsuit. It wasn’t convenient for her to get in the water, so Still had never been interested in swimming.,

Now she was wearing a waterproof cotton swimsuit that was developed by the Night Song Tribe and the Armani Chamber of Commerce. This swimsuit was designed to be form fitting, which not only made it convenient to swim in, it also completely revealed her figure.

Although she had already given birth to a child, Still had maintained a perfect figure. When she put on the swimsuit, all her curves were displayed. Adding in her golden hair and her beautiful face, even if she and Xu Yi were an old married couple, it still attracted attention.

Hearing Xu Yi’s praise, Still didn’t become shy at all and threw out her chest, showing her beautiful figure to Xu Yi.

“This swimsuit really is comfortable to wear. It has to be said, the elves really have some strange things. If it wasn’t for you insisting on cooperating with them, we might not have been able to receive all these valuable things from them.”

Xu Yi gave a proud smile, “Of course, all races have their value. Not to mention that the elves had ruled the continent for over ten thousand years before, of course they would have some knowledge that humans can’t master. Actually, it’s a pity that the halfling race has disappeared. Based on the books, the halflings have very good knowledge and skills when it comes to working with machines, so if the halflings are still on the continent, I really want to work with them. I believe that they would be of great help in developing the magic machine industry.”

Still turned to the sea and pointed out far into the open sea.

“Legends say that the halflings didn’t completely disappear, rather they took their mechanical ships to leave the continent and headed to the depths of the endless sea. It’s said that there is another continent on the other side of the sea and the halflings might have reached that other continent, already taken root on that continent.”
