The parliamentarians began to get up and leave, and the Dawn Council finally came to a hasty end in a hasty atmosphere, a relief for everyone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Wait a minute"

The Elven King waved his hand and motioned for a few of us not to leave.

Once everyone had left the council hall, Maispear raised his hand and released a spell, and a silver shimmer flew down the Elven King's hand like a firefly, floating around us.

"Tell me why you came back to the Dawn Mountains without permission?"

The voice of the elf king has a strong force in it, and the sound waves echo around us, full of the majesty and momentum of the king.

If I had changed before, I would have been frightened by Mespier's questioning, but now it's different.

Confidence and anger are the two things that support me and keep me from being shaken by the momentum of Mespil.

"Because of Sruka, his minions attacked us"

"Huh!?"

The Elven King's brow furrowed, clinging to his silver-white eyes.

"That means your hideout in the human world has been exposed."

I nodded.

"Then it's right for you to come back, it's just that you didn't make it in time."

The Elven King looked a little annoyed.

"As you can see, I'm a little stretched here."

In order to talk to us, he had to unleash a magic to prevent the sound from leaking out, and it was really hard to believe that this was the Dawn Mountains under the rule of Mespil.

"By the way, why haven't you killed that Evan guy yet?"

The Elven King glanced at me, confirming the anger in my eyes.

"He betrayed us, but he is nothing more than a pawn, and killing him as soon as possible will only make that dragon tempt more elves"

Oh?

"And now, the dragon is satisfied with Evan's work, so he doesn't attack the other elves in the Dawn Mountains again."

Indeed, as Mespil feared, it was not a good idea to rush to kill Evan.

"But you can't let him go, you see that even half of the council is supporting him now."

Mespier exhaled, as if unable to refute my doubts.

"Evan used to be my good brother, he also had a lot of influence in Ergonda, and I entrusted him with military power, so it was difficult to weaken him"

Hmph, Maispier, although you are the most powerful elf, you are not very good at politics.

"But Mespil, have you ever thought that Iruka didn't touch the Dawn Mountains again, if not because of Evan's good performance, but because Sruka had no strength left?"

"Oh?"

The Elven King gave a surprised look, but it didn't look like it was unexpected, but it just wanted to hear what I had to say.

"In the human world, we were attacked by a witch, a witch from Perry Hill who was considered dead by everyone, and who Sluka called his most powerful servant"

"If it weren't for the fact that there was no other way, Sluka would never have easily revealed a killer feature that had been hidden for so many years"

"This is also consistent with the speculation of the Witch King Gloria, the dragon who is now active in this world is actually the guardian elf of Sluka, who cannot obtain magic from the real dragon, and is now in a very weak state"

"Gloria, you say?"

"yes, haven't you seen her yet?"

The Elven King blinked, as if thinking about something complicated.

"She has already sought out me, inviting me into her world through her omnipresent magic"

"By the way, brother, is it true that Gloria said that you also rejected the proposal to unite?"

Elle said.

"It's sad that it's true, I had to refuse her offer, there has been no contact between the Dawn Mountains and Perry Hill for tens of millions of years, and before that, we were at war"

"How many years ago was that?"

"Yes, a long, long time ago, after that Heavenly Fire descended on the Aurora World, the witch did not help any race, and we lost the last chance to reconcile between us"

Ancient resentment, I didn't expect the elf's head to turn a corner in this kind of thing.

"Moreover, the Dawn Mountains are not weak enough to need help to compete with the dragons"

Yes...... I forgot that this man was Mespil, the strongest elf, and if he hadn't been defeated, he wouldn't have asked for help.

"But isn't the Dawn Mountains already being toyed with by dragons now?"

Out of disappointment with Mespier, I taunted him.

However, Mespier was not angry, and just calmly said the next words.

"Not really"

"The elves in the Dawn Mountains that have been infiltrated by dragons are under the control of my executor forces"

Mespier looked back at Linda, who nodded to the Elven King, indicating that the Executors were as capable as Mespier had said.

"If you find an opportunity, you can catch everyone"

"......"

I gave me a half-kind appropriation.

"And before the dragon finds a new opportunity to corrupt the spirits of the Dawn Mountains, I'll have a one-on-one duel with him"

"Uh-huh!?"

The Elven King's words were completely beyond my expectations, what kind of trick did you have to make such a jump?

"The location of the dragon is in the wild canyon in the west, and I don't know what means, they have controlled the cavemen and are using the Satie chieftains to infest the elves of the north"

"So much so that Ondeville, who had always sympathized with Chief Sati, began to ask for our help"

"I know very well that the dragon has fallen into weakness, and he can't even launch a frontal attack on the Dawn Mountains with his own strength"

"That's why they seek tools like cavemen, and exploit the Satie chieftains' hatred of the Dawn Mountains."

Whew!

Meispil lived up to his name, and although he was weak in infighting with his political opponents, he was not at all ambiguous in terms of tactics and strategy.

Without relying on the information that Ellie and I brought back, I was able to guess the dragon's condition and intentions based on the dragon's movements alone.

"And this northern expedition is for this purpose"

The Elf King is far-sighted, I, Liu Xiaoqing, don't know Taishan, and I actually doubt your strategy......

'Puff, it's a big ghost~~'

'What are you proud of, and it's not a compliment to you'

"The ......"

Liu Xiao raised his hand slightly.

"Let's talk about Liu Xiao, you are my honored guest, don't be so restrained"

Hey, is it my delusion, why do I feel that Meispil's attitude towards Liu Xiao is much better than that of me?

"Would you really accept Linda as your partner?"

Eh——? that's what you care about?

Wow, even I didn't expect Liu Xiao to abandon the strategic trend and care more about the relationship between the elves in front of me......

The Elf King's gaze moved slightly, and then it made contact with Liu Xiao's gaze again.

"Yes"

Mespier's expression didn't change at all times, and Linda, who was standing next to him, turned red when she heard the question.

As if he had just come out of the steamer, the whole person became soft, the elf lowered his head, his eyes stayed on the marble floor, his hands were tightly clenched, and he did not dare to look up at the elf king at all.

If you sprinkle a little water on Linda's forehead, it will probably turn into steam now, haha.

The heroic duel declaration made in the Sunrise Valley probably took all of Linda's courage, and now she looked like any ordinary shy girl.

"To be honest, the object is Linda's words, which saved me a lot of unnecessary trouble"

As he spoke, the Elf King turned his head to look at Linda, and Linda also raised her head boldly as if she sensed Mespil's gaze, and looked at Mespil with a shy gaze.

"Although it was a little surprising that you would stand up, it was the best choice in terms of results."

"Feelings and responsibilities are not the same, Linda plucked up the courage to pursue the person she liked, and your feelings were just an accident?"

Liu Xiao?

I don't know why, although this girl is still half-open with a pair of eyes, her emotions are tumbling, and she is not reluctant to give up on the elf king.

In the eyes of the wise Liu Xiao, Meispear is probably a wooden stick who doesn't understand any feelings, and he is not worthy of Linda at all......

"Liu Xiao?"

Even Linda was overwhelmed by Liu Xiao's attitude, and the elf wanted to come up to appease Liu Xiao, but was stopped by Mespier.

The Elven King stretched out his hand slightly, blocking Linda's path, as if he didn't want Linda to help him speak.

As if he was going to fight Liu Xiao one-on-one, the tall and mighty Elf King stared at Liu Xiao tightly with his silver-white pupils.

And this weak woman standing in front of the elf king looked so thin, it seemed that the elf king only needed to blow a breath to make her soul fly.

Even so, Liu Xiao's eyes did not mean to retreat.

"It's really just accidents"

"If you expect this level of dedication to impress me, then I can only say that you underestimate me"

"As you said, feelings and duties are not the same, and I will not take special care of her just because someone has expressed kindness to me"

"Whoever is chosen to be the queen, I plan to do so"

Liu Xiao's brows furrowed suddenly, if she was as anxious as Ellie, she would definitely have scolded by now.

'Kid, you're uncomfortable if you don't hurt me, don't you?'

'Oh Elle, yes, you're complaining and getting better'

'Poor mouth!'

"But"

The Elf King turned his gaze away from Liu Xiao, and those silver-white laser-like eyes were now staring at Linda.

"But Linda's case is different"

"I didn't marry this marriage as the Elf King, but after letting go of my identity as the Elf King, I entered into this marriage in the name of Mespil"

"There was a time between Linda and me, and I appreciated her power"

"Although this time is not enough to call it love"

"But Linda's place in my heart is no longer the same as that of other elves"

"So it's an honor for me to be able to choose the 'Golden Shard'"

"That's why I would say that being able to become queen is the best choice"

"This engagement that would have been unadulterated is now more like a marriage contract between a pair of ordinary elves."

Linda's gaze didn't escape the Elven King's face, and Mespier drew her in more than ever, making her no longer cowardly.

The elf king has made his meaning very clear, although it can't be called love, but this marriage is no longer a simple formality, and there are already personal feelings of Mespier.

Before he knew it, the golden shards had shattered the strongest elf's psychic defenses, successfully taking a special place in his heart.

It's just — it can't be called affection yet.

Liu Xiao's gaze softened, and she returned to her usual lazy sister who didn't care about big things and didn't care about small things, but would only huddle on the sofa with her legs in her arms.

The answer sheet that Meispear handed in to Liu Xiao may not be the most satisfying for Liu Xiao, but at least, it no longer worries this girl.
