Chapter 313: Reward
"So let's move on to the next topic"
Hey?
What's next?
Isn't this council just for listening to siblings Meispier and Elle explain their dangerous behavior?
The elves in the first row of the stands all stood up. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
All kinds of elves, all dressed in their own characteristics, are far from the style of the eight families.
It is likely that the family they belong to is not named, and does not belong to one of the eight major families.
"His Majesty Mespil has returned to the Dawn Mountains thanks to the Elven King, and the battle in the west has come to an end"
"The Council of Dawn announces the termination of Princess Elliehana's regent status"
"Your Royal Highness, do you have any questions?"
Ellie shook her head.
"Casual ~ casual ~ "
The little one grinned as he spoke.
This was something she couldn't have expected.
So the elves went on to announce.
"Although all the elves participated in the battle on the front line, we can't honor everyone at the same time"
"So the council will reward some exemplars"
Forehead......
The faces of the elves gradually lost their seriousness.
This made me and Elle feel a lot more comfortable.
It had always been like a court trial, and I had forgotten that the Dawn Mountains had won the battle.
At the end of the day, they're genuinely happy about it.
"First of all, Her Royal Highness Princess Elice Heranna"
"Huh?"
The feelings in Ellie's heart seemed to say that she didn't expect that she would also be commended.
"When the Dawn Mountains need you the most, overcome all odds and rush back from the human world"
"Shouldering the responsibility of the regent, stabilizing the situation throughout the Dawn Mountains"
"And to be on the front line all the way through the siege of the cavemen, to boost the morale of all the warriors of the Dawn Mountains"
Elves, you speak to me as if you were reading a line that has already been written on stage.
Although the whole process is a bit rigid, their words are sincere.
But then again, regardless of the original intention, it is an irrefutable fact that Elle performed very well in this war.
The little one sat on my shoulder, listening to the elves in the council and hearing what was in my heart.
Her face blossomed with joy at once.
I still looked incredulous just now, but now I'm already smiling, I'm afraid I don't know what my surname is.
Ellie's heart was filled with a sense of triumphant satisfaction, and at the same time, a sense of hypocrisy came from the soul link.
Ho Ho ......
These cunning elves of the council.
Could it be that she was worried that Elle would be overly proud of her merits, so she would give her a disgrace at the beginning?
I don't know what it means anyway.
However, their criticism of Elle before and the praise of Elle now are mixed together, which really balances Elle's feelings well.
"Secondly, it's Liu Xiao"
Wow?
I squeezed Liu Xiao's hand.
The girl turned her head and stared at me with her half-open eyes.
As if to say that she hadn't thought of it either.
"In the siege of the cavemen, the commander-in-chief commanded the army in the later stages, allowing us to avoid paying the price of casualties and at the same time inflicting heavy losses on the enemy"
"In Red Cliff City, use your Patron Elves to help Princess Elice Anna repel the army of Gagantu"
"Also help the Elven King pacify Seganger"
Belch......
Listening to what the people in the council said, it seems that it is true that Liu Xiao has played a pivotal role in various battlefields.
It can even be said that this war against the cavemen and the war against Seganger was able to win, which was completely thanks to Liu Xiao.
"As a human being, you have chosen to share the glory and disgrace with us in the Dawn Mountains, and we will not forget these efforts"
"I didn't expect the prophecy to come true so soon"
The elves of the council seem to be talking about something else.
'That's when you first came'
Ellie whispered to me in her heart.
'Didn't a spirit prophesy for you?'
Oooh......
I seem to remember a little.
On his first visit to the Dawn Mountains, in the council, Mespil was referred to as 'the king's people' and Elle was called 'the leader of the people'.
And Liu Xiao is called a 'talented talent, a glorious hero'.
That turned out to be a prophecy, huh?
Because of this stubble matter, when he came to Red Cliff City later, Lord Secelia also called Liu Xiao a 'genius hero'.
Oooh......
This is the first time I have felt admiration for this girl from the bottom of my heart......
I'm afraid I can't count them anymore.
Liu Xiao is so shining, it really makes me a little unwilling......
"A Reward for the Eight Families"
"Their contributions vary, and it's better not to be treated equally"
"I also agree that it would be better to reward them according to their most urgent needs."
Speaking of this, the elves on the stage suddenly had different opinions.
Some elves also had fierce friction with each other.
This......
Could it be that the Dawn Mountains are not monolithic?
"Ah~ah~, this must be endless"
Ellie pouted and grumbled.
"Oh......"
I'm still skeptical, isn't the Dawn Council something more serious and unified?
How does it look like a human council......
Unconsciously, I also felt a palpable sense of disgust.
Elle, who has always been good at straightforwardness, can probably understand why she has a sense of rejection of this council.
After a few minutes of noise throughout the council, it was finally calm again.
It seems that after quite a lot of contention and debate, everyone finally came up with a solution that was enough for the majority to compromise.
Some families will be rewarded with honor, others will expand their land, and others will receive rare treasures.
It seems that as long as it is self-interested, even the elves in the council will show primitive greed.
This was followed by a series of awards announced by the Parliament.
Kyle, the envoy of the Elven King, was rewarded for his meritorious service in visiting Kasta alone and moving to the rescue.
One of the velvet craftsmen was rewarded for his work in improving the trebuchet.
......
A warrior of the Stonestone family was rewarded for his outstanding performance on the battlefield.
Reut, a warrior of the Elven Guards in the Royal City, was rewarded for his role in leading the rescue of Secelia.
Huh?
Saying...... Am I being forgotten by this group of people?
There were quite a few elves who did sweep my eyes over me, but they didn't mention me as if they were taboo about anything.
I don't want to ask for credit or anything, but that's too cold.
Until I found out......
A plainly dressed female elf communicates with Mespier with her eyes.
That elf is...... The elf who urged the Elven King to convene the Dawn Council when he greeted Mespil at the port earlier?
In other words, one of Maispil's henchmen.
I looked at the Elven King.
Doesn't that mean that Mespil deliberately did not allow the parliament to mention my name?
“...... Then finally"
"Since Seganger is officially part of the Dawn Mountains, according to tradition, we will launch a three-day celebration"
All the elves in the council began to applaud in approval and delight.
Seem...... This is the end of the council.
Well, how to put it, it's really frustrating.
'What's wrong with you?'
Ellie winked at me a few times.
She must have sensed the sense of loss in my heart, so she asked with concern.
And I can't just say it - I feel lost because I have fought so hard for so long and have not received any reward.
Wouldn't that make Elle laugh off her big teeth.
Just as I was trying desperately to hide my heart, not wanting Elle to notice what I was thinking, Mespier tapped me on the shoulder.
"That's what I meant"
His voice was so small that only a few of us could hear the applause that filled the council.
"I don't want your name to get out just yet"
Ay?
What do you mean?
I looked at Mespil blankly, puzzled.
"There was once someone who did not hesitate to reveal the identity of the dragon, but also wanted to sneak into the illusion of Huangquan Creek and use the burning spell on you"
"It seems to me that he thinks you are an obstacle that must be cleared"
This quote from Mespier gave me goosebumps.
"So I don't want your fame to spread for the time being"
"Even in the next period of time, you have to deliberately hide your existence"
Mespier's silver-white eyes stared at me, and he continued to speak to me with a very serious look.
"Until I figure out who did it anyway"
Both intuition and reason tell me that Mespier is right.
So I nodded to the Elven King.
"Hmm...... I see."
