Chapter 60: Banishment and the Truth
While the celebration is a joyful event, there is still an unpleasant problem to deal with for the Elven King Valente, and for most of the Elves.
The throne made of vines and the square decorated with flowers may look a little simple, but it does not prevent people from celebrating here.
But until then, it will be a solemn inquisition......
"Ivoi ......"
Wallonte looked at the square, surrounded by the elven guards and surrendered his weapons, and his feelings for this fallen great druid were more complicated.
"You have unleashed the evil gods and fallen into the apostles of evil, and this means betraying the goddess Evita.
So, you have broken the taboo. ”
Betraying the goddess is an extremely severe sin, and usually there is only one death.
Hearing the words of the Elven King, ↓↓+ Ivoi did not beg for mercy or defend himself, this great druid had already accepted his impending fate when he came to his senses.
"However, Lord Hanufain does not want you to go to the capital of the dead with all your sins on your back after being blinded and used by the evil gods. ”
As soon as the conversation turned, Wallonte gave these druids a glimmer of life.
Ivoi's eyes lit up, and he looked up at the Elven King in disbelief.
Although the Great Druid regarded death as home, he also hoped from the bottom of his heart that he could continue to live, not for survival, but for atonement.
Yet he also understood what a sin he had committed. The Great Druid, who had long thought that he had no choice but to die, had a longing in his eyes after hearing the Elven King's words, and he wanted to make up for it. Even if he is burdened with countless scorns and curses, no matter how unjust he suffers from now on, he hopes to have a chance to atone for his sins.
"Looks like you've got it, Ivoi.
More than death, what you, and your druids, need to do more than atonement for your sins.
The evil god is gone. But her words still hover over the continent like a curse, and one day, Ragnarok will come again.
So think about it. Consider your path of atonement, and from now on you have plenty of time to reflect on your sins and find new paths. ”
Ultimately. The Elven King said earnestly.
"Ah...... The Great King ......"
Ivoi shuddered. Want to say words of gratitude.
"But that doesn't mean you don't have to accept any punishment. ”
However, Wallonte's words changed.
"You will be banished, and you will no longer be welcome in the Elven Forest, and you will not be allowed to continue living in this land.
You are no longer considered a member of the Elven race, you have betrayed the Goddess, betrayed the Wind Hunters, and even betrayed your own Druids.
Look at yourselves, that black body is the mark of sin. From now on, you will be called the Dark Elves. And in the confusion looking for the way of atonement. ”
The Elven King's words turned Ivoi's hopeful gaze into despair again.
Driven from their homeland, and stripped of their race, what will happen to them from now on, as the Elven King said, their future is full of fog and thorns.
However, Ivoi also understood that he deserved it, and that it was he who unleashed the evil gods and caused the Second Ragnarok to descend.
"Now, get out of here!"
Accompanied by the elven king's majestic words, the elven guards in the square unfolded their bows and arrows in unison, aiming directly at these former compatriots.
"Let's go ......"
Ivoi let out a long sigh, he looked at himself, at his fellow citizens who had been exposed to the red rain, their skin turned dark and brown, and at the Elven Forest as if to imprint the sight in his heart forever, and then he lifted his feet and took heavy steps.
Just as the dark elves left.
On the other side, outside a makeshift treehouse in the forest, Isabella, Melti, and Karen were anxiously waiting.
No one expected that when Leah and Eve finished singing, little Lori fainted on the ground like a puppet with a broken string.
The group was in a mess and finally carried Leah into the makeshift hut and handed it over to Eve and Hanufain for treatment.
It wasn't long before the two of them came out of the house.
"Lord Hanufain, how is Leah?"
The princess ran forward, looked at the great sage, and asked.
"Her use of power was even more excessive than I could have imagined. But don't worry, although this has caused a lot of load on Leah's body, it will not be life-threatening. ”
Hanufain sighed, and said with a look of self-reproach on his face:
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have forced Leah to use her power again to restore the world after fighting Yuhime, it's still too reluctant. ”
"No, the Sage doesn't have to blame himself.
Since Leah is fine, the result is good. ”
To be honest, as little Lori's sister, Karen does have some displeasure with Hanufain's reluctance to Leah.
However, from a knight's point of view, she did not think that it was a mistake to help the elves rebuild their homes, but rather that it was noble and fully demonstrated the spirit of chivalry. In the end, she chose words of comfort.
"But Lord Hanufain, whether it's me, Karen, or Randall, I have a lot to ask you. ”
Confirming that Leah was safe, Isabella stepped forward, her face stern.
"I understand what you're trying to ask, but the fewer people who know about it, the better. So Princess, and Miss Karen, please come with me. ”
Hanufain nodded, and after a vicious battle with the evil god, he performed such a huge miracle that everyone could see that Leah and Eve must have a great secret in them.
So she took Isabella and Karen, and Eve, and the Elven King, to a lake in the forest, while everyone was busy preparing for the celebration.
"You want to ask Leah and Eve about it, right? And if I'm not mistaken, you have the same question about Wallonte. ”
Hanufain pulled Eve and stood in front of everyone.
"That's right, even if you don't call me over, I think I'll ask you sooner or later. ”
Wallonte nodded.
As the king of the elves, and as the oldest and wisest of the long-lived elves, unlike the princess and countess, in his heart, there was already a vague, but shocking answer.
"That's right, that's right, why do Leah and Eve have that power, and why does Sylph call Leah and Eve their mothers?"
Isabella asked, looking at Hanufain, standing up.
"It's a little earlier than I expected, but as the king of the elves, and the leader of the next generation of the Randall Kingdom, and the sister of those two children, you do have the right to know this. ”
Hanufain knew that the secret could no longer be concealed. So she looked at Eve, then knelt down, and said in a tone of reverence and humility:
"Eve...... No, Lord Evita, the great goddess of creation, allow me to tell them who you really are. (To be continued......)
