Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Sword Dance Festival Begins
Thank you very much for the tips of "Phoenix Dance Butterfly Fei" and "A Fish That Can Walk~".
The weather in Chengdu has changed so much, and we unfortunately have a cold poi......
Collect! Ask for a recommendation POI!
================== below is the text oh poi ===============
What happened to the god-man behind that dinner, Yakumo didn't know.
It was only the next morning that he saw the man of God, though weak, intact.
His keen sense of the monster made him realize that the god-man seemed to have the breath of the second princess Fiyana.
It's very rich, but it's not as good as the kind of Cheng dΓΉ after the intercourse of men and women.
It seems that the god-man can survive the dark mark that Rubia has penetrated into his body, and Fiana must have done a lot of work.
Then, with everyone thinking about it, the Elven Sword Dance Festival officially began.
================I'm finally going to start the split line POI ===============
Shrine Temple, in the hall of the Great Shrine of the Elves.
At this moment, it was already surrounded by spectators who flocked from all over the mainland.
Among them are the royal family and nobles, as well as the witches belonging to the elven envoy cultivation institutions of various countries, and naturally the students of the Eleb Academy of Ellesia.
On the altar in the center of the hall are the members of the sword dance.
Although the audience is all elite-educated, when the elves appear, the screams of the girls can still be heard from the crowd.
"Miss! Miss! Come on!! β
"Sister-sama! Be sure to bring the glory of victory to Lauren Frost! β
Hearing the cheers of her own waste wood maid and her sister who had come to watch the battle, Linslet covered her eyes with a little blush.
"It's a shame!!"
"This is your Lauren Frost tutor?"
Just like Lynslet, Claire won't miss any opportunity to hit Lynslet.
"You have to take care of it!"
Seeing that the two of them had a tendency to quarrel again, Asuna and Alice hurriedly stepped forward to stop them.
Ya Yunmo clasped his hands on his chest, feeling the sight of the audience and other participating representatives, and felt helpless.
[Really, I'm also an elf, shouldn't you guys pay more attention to the only male elf envoy god]
It seems that Yakumo didn't notice that the god man and himself were also treated like this.
[Hurry up and start, these people are annoyed to look at their prey]
In the hall, all twenty-three teams have been assembled, except for the "Apostle of Purgatory" led by Rubia.
In addition to the strange coercion emanating from Yakumo Mo's body, the most stressful was undoubtedly the Dragon Emperor Knights of Doragonnia.
It was an army with a steely discipline.
Yakumo Mo, who inadvertently met Leora's gaze, felt the raging battle intent from the dragon elf envoy girl's heart.
"This time, in addition to Lotus Ashubel's team, the most important thing we need to pay attention to is the Dragon Emperor Knights."
Asukina, who had already pacified Claire and Lynslet, began to explain to everyone all the information she had obtained.
"ON TOP OF THAT, WE'RE ALSO THE VERSALIA IVA AND CERUNNOS TEAMS FROM THE ELVEN ACADEMY OF ELESIA. However, because they are related to the same academy, their information is also the clearest, and we only need to pay attention to one thing about Vircelia and the Wind Morning God. β
At the mention of Vilcelia, Alice's expression changed a little.
It was her sister after all.
Then, Asukina set her sights on the team dressed in exotic clothes.
"That's the 'Four Gods' of the Kuyna Empire, and they're very good at group tactics. The white-haired girl is one of the trump cards, Shao Hu, the elf envoy of the divine beast elf 'White Tiger'. β
"The four gods? Shouldn't it be five people? β
"There should also be a commanding elf envoy."
Asukina said.
"Then there is the Holy Spirit Knights of the Holy Lukia Empire, whose trump card is the quasi-winner of the last time, losing to Paladin Luminaris of Lotus Ashubel in the final."
"Next up is the 'Broken Division' of the Duchy of Rosabel. Ace Milla Passert is the youngest thirteen-year-old at the conference. Because it is a new country that only became independent from the Holy Lukia Kingdom decades ago, its history is relatively short, but the strength of the elven envoy is still the highest level. Well, that's all for the main team."
At this time, Lotus Ashuber, or Rubia, led the team into the hall.
Behind her, there were four elven envoys draped in cloaks.
Yakumo, who is an alliance with Rubia, naturally recognizes those people.
In the past few years, he has had a lot of intersections with them.
The monster of the Academy, the military elf envoy Mia Arenstahl.
Also from the elf clan of the training institute - Lily.
There is also a girl with striking blue hair. Only her clothes were decorated with gold and silver and other luxurious decorations, and she also held a fan with colorful patterns in her hand.
"The coat of arms of the Alphath Religious King's family - could it be, Sarah Can, the 'Demon Elf Messenger!'?"
Hearing Asuina's exclamation, Linslet on the side turned her head curiously.
"Do you know?"
"The first princess of the religious country, known as the successor of the 'Witch of Twilight'"
Because of Grevas's care, Assuna has great respect for her, and she also has full attention to the person who claims to have inherited the title of "Witch of Dusk" from Grevas.
However, it was the last one who overwhelmed those three people who attracted the most attention from the audience.
When that person appeared, the silent venue was once again stirring.
It was a black knight covered in pitch-black armor.
Its form is not only weird. Even the whole body exudes the smell of unknown truth.
[Sure enough, you finally woke him up]
The moment he saw the black knight, Yakumo sighed in his heart.
Naturally, he knew who the black knight was, the one who Rubya had told him.
Nipantes Roya.
A person who once inherited the power of the Demon King, but died without successfully awakening.
It can be said that he is the predecessor of the man of God.
[Awakened the one who should have died, Rubya, your path has been crooked]
Between life and death, there is a great terror.
Even the youkai who can control the realm of life and death, Yakumo Mo and Purple, will be cautious when facing dead creatures.
Ya Yunmo still remembers what his sister warned him.
"Mo'er, unless you have to, don't try to resurrect the dead being."
When he said this, Zi's face was unprecedentedly stern.
Retracting his distant thoughts, Yakumo lowered his head and began to wait quietly for the game to begin.
"What an ominous ...... that is"
Alice and the others, who felt the breath of Nipantes, couldn't help but tremble.
Rubia, who had entered, noticed the man of God and walked straight to the opposite side.
The two seemed to be talking about something, but Yakumo lowered his head and didn't pay attention.
After Rubia and the others arrived, five elven queens appeared on the altar where the bonfire was burning.
The elves who appeared began to dance the Kagura dance of bonna, praying to the elven king for a decree.
Soon, the five elves were instructed by the elven king.
The rules of the preliminary round of this elf sword dance festival - Rulan's flurry.
The stage of the sword dance will be a vast forest located in the northern part of the floating island, where wild monsters and elves are rampant.
The venue will be sealed in advance by the shrine maidens of the Divine Rite Temple, so the elven envoys cannot leave the battlefield in a normal way.
Teams from each nation will be teleported in for seven days to please the Elven King.
Among them, there is a rule that is constantly emphasized, that is, you can't kill the elf envoy directly.
After all, the Elven Sword Dance Festival is not a pure martial art contest, but a ritual performed by the young Himeko maidens Kagura in order to please the Elven King and pray for the blessings and well-being of their respective countries.
Death, undoubtedly, will defile this ritual.
Each contestant will carry a special elf ore - magic stone.
The way to decide the winner is to compete for the magic stone.
When the Stone leaves the wielder's body for more than a minute, the Emissary who has lost the Stone will be judged a failure and will be forcibly teleported out of the tournament venue and back to the Grand Shrine.
When the seven-day sword dance is over, the four teams with the most magic stones will enter the finals and accept the final sword dance for the Elf King.
Teams that enter the finals, even if they lose their magic stones and retire from the finals, can still re-enter the finals.
"- Martial arts and Jiago are with the witch who performs the sword dance!"
"--Gentlemen, Wuyun is prosperous!"
The elven king's edict was read, and the five elven queens sang in unison.
The portal began to glow blindly.
The Elven Sword Dance Festival has officially begun!
