章 22: The Elven King Come Back

There seemed to be a bit of awkwardness in the air, but neither of them minded.

After a moment, the Elven King spoke, "Is this about Ilodyer?"

Rhys's concerns were voiced, and he nodded. "He's not in the Elven Kingdom anymore, and that human girl is also gone, they..."

"When I returned, I saw Ilodyer," the Elven King said calmly, his emerald green eyes unflinching.

"Where is he?" Rhys glanced behind the Elven King, finding no one there.

"He didn't come back," the Elven King skirted around Rhys and continued forward.

"Why..." Rhys turned and followed the Elven King, seeking an explanation.

"If he wishes to return, he will come back naturally," the Elven King said, continuing toward the Hall of Heroes without stopping or returning to his chambers.
