I’m Really Not The Demon God’s Lackey

the matter.
Have some tea and rest up first.”

“…Mhmm.” Doris took the cup with a slightly more caution.

After all, the blessed one before her could decide the fate of the Iris Clan.
Moreover, it seemed like he was rather temperamental, enjoyed toying with people and provoking fights without getting bored of it.

Her eyes shifted to the cup and she gazed at the floating tea leaves within it with some hesitation.

Ever since tea leaves were brought in from the North, drinking tea had already become a common tradition within Norzin.
However, most of it was drunk as black tea with sugar and milk added.
There were rarely any people that just brewed roasted tea leaves this way.

Doris hadn’t come in contact with the outside world for a long time and was rather unfamiliar with these kinds of human stuff.

Her ‘renting an apartment’ was actually just her knocking the owner unconscious.

She carefully took a sip and found the taste very peculiar.
Bitter with a hint of fragrance, yet this sort of naturalness was seemingly very compatible with elves.

On top of that, the warmth of the hot tea was indeed very comforting.

Doris smiled joyfully and exhaled.
She put down her cup while being deep in thought.
The bookstore owner had been completely unfazed by the Destructive-rank battle outside and had even brewed tea…

He hadn’t just brewed a cup for himself and had incidentally brewed another cup for Doris as well.

It seemed like the bookstore owner was already certain of the victor before it even began.
Just that he had given Doris a necessary task to observe her performance.

Given his current manner, it seemed like the bookstore owner was somewhat satisfied.

Doris composed herself and asked, “Can we continue on with the topic we left off?”

Lin Jie nodded and answered resolutely, “Yes, I can help with your problem but it won’t be easy.
Gaining recognition once more will be a long and arduous process.
I will try my best but what is most important is how you all correspond.”

For all that the young lady before him had said, Lin Jie deduced that she was from a noble family called the Iris Clan.

On top of that, this was a family clan that once had a glorious history.

Just that due to certain misfortunes, the true significance of the family’s crest was lost, possibly along with the clan’s historical annals.
Over time, other noble families gradually stopped acknowledging them and the clan declined.

Restoration and filling the gaps of history was a rather large undertaking.
Moreover, those of the clan themselves couldn’t spill the beans or have a substandard understanding of this knowledge.
Otherwise, there would be no end to trouble.

This young lady had come seeking him because of her trust in Ji Zhixiu.
Naturally, Lin Jie would have to produce the goods.

He, Lin Jie might be untalented, but he at least had a slight knowledge of heraldry.

Since heraldry studies back in his own country were basically unheard of, Lin Jie managed to get authorization from the Academic Heraldry Association through a friend and published a book Emblems & Totems which could be sold in a series along with his other book Ceremonies & Customs.

[T/L Note: Totems in this case are Chinese totem tattoos which are like symbols]

Lin Jie drew out that book from the shelf behind him and handed it over to the young elf lady.

“Read this carefully first, it will definitely come in helpful.
Regaining glory isn’t an easy matter.”

Doris’ heart was thumping as she took the book.

Her eyes were immediately drawn to the strange symbol on the cover.

A distorted five-pointed star that seemed to stare straight into her eyes from its center point and overflowing with a hallowed overtone.

The book’s title — Elder Sign.
