Chapter 101: Underground

The talks began in a small tea party in a relatively casual atmosphere. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The participants consisted only of the princess, a few papal envoys, and a few of the princess's retinue officials.

The chief legate of the Holy See is the Second Senior Priest of the Blake Burton.

The man was bald, tall and thin, with a respectful expression and impeccable manners, but his aggressive attitude was faintly revealed in his words.

Yuri had heard of this man, he was a good lobbyist, good at debating, but decent in his work.

Therefore, his attitude may also be able to roughly represent the attitude of the pope.

Naturally, the clerk was a little angry.

But Her Royal Highness did not show the slightest dissatisfaction, her words were kind, her attitude was friendly, and her manners were perfect, as if the haggard figure on the city wall just now was not hers.

So the clerk could only be silent throughout the whole process.

It was already late when the talks began, so in the end the host and the host were not in a hurry to reach an agreement.

In fact, such peace talks will not be agreed upon anytime soon.

When the tea party was over, the envoys were taken to the bath and rest, and the clerk hastily arranged the relevant trivial matters, and hurried to the princess's temporary residence.

"Even if it's just to stay outside her door."

Unexpectedly, the princess did not fall asleep either.

After freshening up and changing into a nightdress, Elizabeth invited her into the bedroom and pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed.

Although she knew that it was just an expression of intimacy, Yuri couldn't help but beat a drum in her chest.

However, she quickly adjusted her mood and went straight to the point: "Your Highness, you can't promise them. At least not to Wright. ”

"Thank you, I know you're doing it for my good. Why don't I want to go north? But I'm afraid there won't be a few people willing to be on our side right now. My father's life is still in their hands, and I am afraid that using this sword soldier will only make innocent people bury me for me......"

The princess was a little weak at this time, but her attitude was quite firm.

The clerk knew that in fact, Her Royal Highness had already made a decision when she was on the city wall before.

She decided to sacrifice herself, for the sake of her father, for the sake of her subjects, and for the sake of her country.

Just like when she had promised to marry the Holy See.

But who of your subjects will receive this from you?

At most, it's just an interesting story to tell after dinner.

It is difficult to change what this Highness decides, and the clerk understands this.

So she didn't persuade any more.

She felt that she wanted to cry again, and pushed her glasses to cover up, and the clerk asked again, "I will stay outside the door tonight, is there anything else Your Highness needs me to do before going to bed?" ”

"No need, you're also very tired these days, why don't you go back and rest......"

But looking at the other party's sad expression of wanting to cry, the silver-haired princess forcibly twisted the words back: "Otherwise, you can rub my shoulders for me." ”

"Okay."

While it seemed a little disrespectful to have someone who was proficient in magic, from a prominent family, and who held an official position herself, Yuri was visibly happier.

――――――――――

The lights are out.

The two ended up sleeping in the same bed.

Yuri was getting this kind of treatment for the first time, but she wasn't in the mood to be cranky either.

Of course, she was willing to let her princess enjoy her body for comfort. She is also confident that her appearance is barely worthy of the other party.

But His Highness obviously didn't mean that.

So she lay on her side facing the princess, staring greedily and lovingly at the delicate and perfect faces of the princess in the dark.

Until the princess fell asleep, she was reluctant to close her eyes.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Elizabeth fell asleep.

But she suddenly felt her consciousness come to her senses.

It was a very strange feeling, she knew she was in a dream, but she didn't have that chaotic, broken, illogical feeling.

She was in a dream, and she knew she was in a dream.

Her Royal Highness blinked her beautiful silver eyes and began to observe her surroundings.

It's an empty field.

The ground is made of yellow-brown earth and stone, which is extremely monotonous, but also extremely large.

The sky was gray and cloudy, and it seemed extremely wide.

For there were no mountains, no rivers, not even great stones.

Her Royal Highness the Princess wandered around casually.

I don't know how long later, she saw a strange stone.

It's not that there is anything strange about the stone itself, the stone is also yellow-brown, and there is nothing special about its shape or hardness.

It's just that they seem to have been artificially placed in a pyramid shape.

Looking up, there were piles of these stones every two hundred or so paces.

The princess spread her hands.

"Strange dreams."

But whatever.

She followed the sign.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Austerlander in the North.

In a cave.

It would not be accurate to say that it is a cave, because this is a huge, complex, continuous cluster of underground cavities.

It's one of the most dangerous places in the world.

The cave was pitch black, and soon after entering, he couldn't see his fingers.

But this huge cavern stretches down as if there is no end, as if it will go all the way to the fabled depths of hell. The passage is like a labyrinth, with underground rivers running around from time to time, and the river fluctuates and often drowns creatures that strayed into it.

Not to mention the strange and deadly underground magical creatures that lurk in the caves.

Moon is now in this cave.

She was followed by ten night elf patrols who had just been forced by her to sign a soul contract.

She had always been a loner, and had never made such a pact with any living being.

But what she has to do this time is not easy, and her group of people are notoriously like to go back on their word and have a black hand behind it.

According to Moon's Magic Mentor Grande and Ranger Mentor Alfalfa, the dead Black Elf is the safe Black Elf. If you really want to settle for the next best, you can only learn the high-level dark wizard's stunt "Soul Contract" and sign it with the target.

But that doesn't mean you're completely safe.

The quality of the signed black elves was not satisfied with last month, most of these night elves were young individuals who had just reached the elite level, and only the little girl named Aoi in the lead, who had reached the upper echelons of the elite rank.

Tsuki even had the urge to kill them at first, driven by his own night elf bloodline.

But these black elves were unexpectedly well-behaved, and when Yue showed some tricks, they were so obedient and deferential, so she couldn't do it for a long time, so she had to sign a contract.

The cowardice of the young patrolmen is completely different from the reputation of the Black Elves in the human world, and the Night Elf Assassins in human knowledge are arrogant and stubborn, preferring to die rather than give in.

"Maybe it's because I'm a night elf now."

This is also understandable.

After all, in the ruthless black elf society, the weak naturally have their own way of life. If everyone would rather die than give in when facing the strong people of the same clan, I am afraid that the black elves will not have a few living mouths.
