Jake had a close relationship with the royal faction, but if the royal family heard that his people stole a royal family’s golden pacifier…
Even the royal family would feel offended, and their relationship might be sour.
So this is the intruders’ true goal, right?! If they found the pacifier here…
Jake rarely panicked but now, he really broke in a cold sweat. After all, he also saw Sherleen giving the pacifier to Ainsley.
So…did Sherleen put a trap through the pacifier or something?
But Sherleen is the royal family’s nanny. Her position is extremely high even among other elves.
There’s no way she would betray the royal faction and even give such an important pacifier to a human when it was her honor to keep the pacifier of the baby elf that she used to take care of.
Before Jake could understand the situation, the leader of the elves already motioned for someone to drag a person hiding at the end of their group line.
The person was all shackled, both arms and legs.
She looked extremely weak and fragile, not all like the beautiful and prideful elf that everyone imagined.
When the woman was dragged to the front, the elf leader didn’t hesitate to throw her in front of Jake’s feet.
“Look at her, humans! She is the sinner who colluded with humans to steal our royal pacifier!”
In that instant, even Ainsley’s eyes reddened.
Because the woman was none other than Sherleen!
Jake’s face blackened, and he immediately helped Sherleen to stand up.
“Sherleen! You– ” Jake didn’t care about the elf leader’s poisonous gaze and immediately brought Sherleen into his arms.
Although the woman was way taller than him, she was currently so weak that she couldn’t even stand firm.
This is one of his close friends, Sherleen. She is like his older sister. Warm and caring, but also have a lot of sharp edges.
She once went to the human continent to be the elves’ ambassador and to avoid suspicion…Jake had to act like he’s not close with Sherleen.
But Sherleen is also his close friend in the elf race! Now that she was reduced to such a state…
Jake instantly realized that these elves from the noble faction wanted to harm Sherleen and the Billios Family along the way.
Sherleen might have been caught in a trap even before she went to the human continent to see Ainsley back then!
Ainsley also remembered the beautiful lady who gave her the pacifier in exchange for unique potions.
The female elf didn’t seem to realize that she had handed over a precious pacifier to a human.
Maybe…she was under control or something, or the pacifier she wanted to give to Ainsley wasn’t supposed to be a royal pacifier in the first place.
The trap was so deep and complicated that Jake was impressed.
“Sherleen, are you okay?” Jake ignored the group of elves who were still murmuring ‘thieves’ and such.
He just carried Sherleen to their mini stage and let her rest there.
“Jake…” Sherleen tried to speak in human language, but she was already too weak. She couldn’t even speak properly.
God knows what these noble elves did to Sherleen until such a warrior became like this.
Jake’s heart tightened once more. Sherleen was like his family member, just like the male elf he introduced to Ainsley.
In front of others, they didn’t look that close, but for the past decade, Jake had been close to these two elves.
He was already friends with them even when he was still underage!
It wasn’t strange to say that Sherleen and the male elf were like his elder sister and brother.
Even he could learn the elf language faster than others all because of these two people.
Now that Sherleen was harmed to this point…Jake wanted to vent his anger, but his rationality told him that the trap was too deep, and he had to be careful.
The elves were even sure that the pacifier was here with the Billios Family, which means they knew that Ainsley was the one who held the pacifier.
They purposely waited until Jake held such a grand welcoming party for Ainsley to deal the last blow!
Jake suddenly felt that he wasn’t as careful as before.
He didn’t even realize that the pacifier Sherleen gave to Ainsley was a royal pacifier.
Damn it!
Jake and Ainsley were all tense and cautious, but the elves were not that patient.
When they saw the two people only looking at Sherleen, they immediately became dissatisfied.
“Jake Billios, we have given you the proof of our words. Now, please excuse our rudeness.”
The leader of this elf group spoke to Jake in the elven language as he swept his gaze over the guests, as if looking for someone.
“We will search the whole place and the guests here to find our lost treasure!”
Right after he said that, the thirty or so elves instantly spread and approached the guests without even caring about their reaction.
And their goal wasn’t the adults but the kids.
“Find Ainsley Sloan! She is the thief!”
The elf leader shouted in the elven language, instantly alarming all the people who could understand him.
Ainsley…she is in danger!
Elliana and Axelle, the two people who also had a connection with this trouble, instantly shuddered.
Axelle backed off even more, afraid that his identity would be exposed even after he drank a transformation potion special for elves.
On the other hand, Elliana was scared silly because the pacifier…was in her spatial necklace!
Elliana’s poker face instantly broke, and for the first time, she showed a blatant fear.
She was afraid that if the elves searched everyone’s spatial storage, they would find the pacifier on her, and they could put the blame on Ainsley!
