The sky, which should have been clear and bright, seemed to be a little dimmed by the appearance of this group of cavalry.

The wind drifting from afar brings not only the smell of ripe plants and trees in autumn, but also a tense atmosphere.

The bright voice was accompanied by a relatively familiar face, dressed in hunting attire, with black hair and gray eyes, and the expression on his face was full of hostility when he looked at Charles.

Beside him was a large white dog with the same fierce eyes staring at Charles, giving him the impression that it was even more intimidating than that of its owner.

"You can steal the Elven Diamond from Morgoth, but you don't want to fool me or hide it! Hand it over, the Elven Diamond is a thing forged by my family, and we can only keep it! ”

This words accompanied the staring gaze of the soldiers around him, and it seemed very weighty.

"What if you don't pay it?" Although the diamond was not Charles's, it was obvious that he was talking to him, so he spoke.

But in my heart I was vigilant.

No elf knew about the Elven Diamond being taken out by Lucien except for him and Lucian.

So it seems obvious where the other party got the news.

He wasn't sure if it was a collusion with the enemy, or if someone was secretly instigating the notice, the latter was highly likely, but Charles didn't go along with the other party's thoughts.

Because for whatever reason, the battle in front of us is already on the bright side.

"If you don't hand it over, the land under your feet will inevitably be stained with blood again!"

Keller Gong replied stiffly.

It's just that after the words fell, a blonde elf beside him with an already strange face became even more displeased.

"Brother, you didn't say that to me before you borrowed the way!"

"If they have to resist, what can I do?"

"We can talk to each other well, there is no need to kill each other!"

"The Elven Diamonds are ours, and those who try to possess them will only be our enemies, and I have nothing good to say about them!"

“……”

As they talked, the knights who formed the encirclement also looked a little flustered.

Although the Charr's rescue of the Angbán slaves has not yet spread, his past reputation is enough to have a deep influence among the elves.

And now, though they were surrounded by the orders of Kellegon, they were really drawn their swords against each other......

"Are you too impulsive?"

"There is no movement in the North Angban, if we ...... ourselves"

Many sounds come to the ear.

Before the actual order was given, his own soldiers behaved like this.

Kellergun was annoyed by this.

He heard that Carniel, who had a grudge against him, was hiding the Diamond and wanted to sneak it back to Linton, so he didn't think much about it before he sent his troops over.

I thought that he could easily bring the treasure diamond back, so that he could be regarded as a great achievement, but he didn't want his own subordinates to start rebelling against him!

"Agnor, I'll talk to you through the road, and after I get what I want, I'll naturally give you a satisfactory explanation. As for you guys? ”

He turned his head and glared at the rioting cavalry behind him.

"Unless the oath you once swore allegiance to is no longer recognized, obey my commands!"

So the commotion that should have existed was suppressed.

Charles, who had been surrounded and watched for a while, stopped Lucien, who was about to speak, and looked at Calegon who looked high on horseback.

"You have to think about the consequences."

"If you think your threat can be compared to Mandus's curse, then I can think again."

There was a recklessness in his words, and he sounded magnanimous, but Charles only felt that the clown was dancing in front of him.

He snorted, and then disappeared from Celegon's sight in an eerie way.

The appearance that seemed to melt into the earth, and as if his body dissolved from the bottom to the top, made Calegon's face change, but he didn't wait for him to react. Then I heard a voice.

"Do you still have that confidence?"

The sound was accompanied by a sharp metal grip on the neck.

The other elves looked around and saw that Charles was crouching on the back of a horse behind him, a dagger in his hand reaching his neck!

"What are you doing, let go!"

There were knights around him, and the other knights became hostile.

Although they were not satisfied with the order of Kellergun just now, their own lord could not help but stand up and stop him in the face of such danger.

Charles, however, only glanced at the cavalrymen and then ignored them.

As he expected, no matter how much the surrounding soldiers shouted, they did not dare to run up to attack him.

Only the blonde elf who was nearby smiled wryly.

"Listen to me, I've thought about it carefully, I'm afraid it's a little weird, so don't be impulsive......"

Who doesn't know that there are ghosts in this, but Keller Gong is so uninteresting.

Charr ignored him, for the man in his hand was still turning his head to glare, and he pressed the dagger closer to him.

"Do you think that I am like this now, and everything you rely on after your arrogant tone will still exist?"

"If you dare to do this, then my people and my brothers will surely avenge me!"

"Your brothers are only six." Charles said: "That is, it is a matter of wiping my neck six times, and it may take me some time to get on the road." What do you think? ”

Thinking of the strange method of this person just now, Keller Gong couldn't help but change his face. But he was still hard-mouthed.

"There are only seven sons of Fëanor, but they have thousands of followers, you can't kill us all!"

"When you're dead, do you think they'll come to me for revenge, or will they choose to follow the other lords? From what I've observed, your men don't seem to have much loyalty to you. ”

"Then you can give it a try!"

……

Elves are not very afraid of death, and their souls are immortal and cannot be completely killed.

Second, death is terrifying for humans, but it is an unknown experience for elves.

Some elven scholars even ponder what it is like to be completely dead.

Elven scholars believe that the reason why humans are afraid of death is because they have been affected by the shadow pollution at the beginning of their birth, and that they should not be afraid of death by nature, just like elves.

So in general, elves can be lured or threatened by various reasons, but simple death has little effect, so Callegon's performance is not complete because of how much courage he has, the main thing is not to be afraid of death.

However, just as Charles was considering entertaining the fool with the shadow of his mind, Lucien stepped forward among the fugitives.

"If you can prove that the diamond is yours, we may not be able to return it."

The voice that should have been pleasant and beautiful looked dignified and serious at this moment, and Lucien, who seemed a little out of step in front of Charles, was now full of the aura of the superior of Doriath.

"But before that, I think you should learn to be polite and sensible, and not just try to snatch it without asking why. It made me feel like I was dealing with some savage bandits, not a noble-born Noldor royal family. ”

Her words made many knights feel ashamed, and even the stunned Celegons seemed a little speechless.

After glancing at Charles who was squatting on horseback, Lucien said, "The diamond is with me, and I took it from Morgoth's crown, so you have already found the wrong target in the first place, but I will not choose to hand it over now." When you learn the etiquette of the Fenway family, come and visit Doriath! ”

With that, she looked at Charles again and blinked, the meaning obvious.

At this time, Charles was already thinking about how to keep their soldiers on the line after stabbing him to death and the sons of Fëanor behind him.

The influence of the Shadow of the Mind cannot be maintained forever, otherwise it would be more convenient.

But since Lucien has made a choice, there is no need for him to exacerbate the tension - the main northern enemy is still eyeing the enemy, and it is indeed not wise to fight inwardly now.

So as soon as the hand was loosened, Charles's whole person returned to his original position as strangely as when he came.

Without saying anything, Keller Gong slid away. The blonde elf beside him also bowed apologetically, and then walked away with the knights.

It wasn't until the group disappeared from sight that the escapees breathed a sigh of relief.

Lucien did the same, and then she looked apologetically at Charles.

"They were actually targeting me...... Sorry to bother you. ”

"It's not a problem." Putting the dagger in its sheath, Charles replied.

For him at this time, the only real enemy was the group in the north, and ordinary elves were actually not worried.

"Need help?" He asked.

"Thanks, though a little worried." Lucien shook her head: "But my mother's belt can't even penetrate the darkness, let alone them!" “

It was only at this moment that this one revealed a little dissatisfaction, and it was obvious that she was not so calm on the surface.

After all, they worked hard to get the treasure diamond in their hands, and then brought it out of the devil's cave, but suddenly a nasty guy ran out and claimed that the treasure was their own, and you were not qualified to have it, and then they wanted to grab it, and anyone who encountered this thing was also very angry.

It's just that the self-cultivation made her hide her anger in her heart, but the reason she revealed also eased the situation temporarily.

And her anger came and went quickly, and in just a few words, she didn't seem to care too much.

"I'll ask my mother what to do with it when I get back, and I'll hand it over if necessary, if only they could be polite......" she muttered, then looked at Charles.

"What about your opinion?"

"I'm sure you can handle it well." Charles replied.

So Lucian's big beautiful eyes couldn't help but bend, and then she spoke casually.

"After this is over, I want to visit the Seven Rivers, where the vegetation is really beautiful. Will you welcome me to go? ”

What else could Charles say, anyway, after the special power in the other party's body dissipated, he felt that it became very easy to get along with this person, and there was no reason to refuse.

So they continued on their way.

It wasn't until three days later that they arrived at the Dorias border, where a group of garrisons picked up Lucien and some escapees who had chosen to stay in Doriath.

Charles continued on his way with the rest of the men, and finally arrived at the Seven Rivers on a clear but cloudy day.

After his return, he arranged for the reception of more than 300 escapees who had come with him. Then he couldn't wait to ask about the mysterious blacksmith.

The results were a mixed bag for him.

"The one is gone." Linton's chief armaments designer, Olophil, who had been in charge of liaison with him, reported.

"But he left a letter with the results of his research and a piece of information that Your Majesty might want to know."
