Chapter 30: The Abyss

To the northeast of the continent, there is a large expanse of eerie dense forest. It is known as the dark jungle by the world. This is the home of the Dark Elves.

Second Age: Elven Age. Between E31044 and E31144, and E31227 and E31248, the elves fought two protracted civil wars that nearly destroyed their original home. These two wars also directly led to the decline of the elves and the arrival of the human era.

In ancient times, the fairyland on earth created by the gods and the original elves was so desecrated by war that it caused the wrath of the gods. The creator god AZ sent down heavenly punishment and deprived the main initiator of the war, and the last defeated party, the rebel elves from the blessing of the Creator. Their skin is no longer fair, and their hair has lost its golden sheen. They no longer love everything that has light as they used to, because the light makes them dizzy. On top of that, they've all lost the eternal lifespan that elves should have. From then on, the world called them "dark elves". But they hate the title, and they are used to calling themselves "vengeful elves".

The elves survived and fled. Until the dark jungle was discovered in the northeast of the continent. They slowly converge from all over the world into the jungle to enslave the indigenous people of the human race and build their own kingdoms.

The Dark Elves built their cities and palaces in the densest woods of the forest. Some of them are even more averse to the light, and they lead their families and slaves to dig underground. Build a home in the dark underground.

Because they live in a dark environment for a long time, the dark elves have extremely strong night vision, even stronger than most nocturnal animals, and can gain a great advantage in pitch black environments. Their skin color is slowly getting darker and darker, and most of the dark elves have a dark purple or dark gray skin color, which acts as an effective protective color in dark environments.

As a result, the Dark Forest has become one of the most dangerous realms in the world. Everyone is afraid of this place, and even the explorers talk about it. Because if a humanoid creature that is not a dark elf enters here, it is tantamount to pronouncing death. If you run to the tavern and tell someone, you went on an expedition to the Dark Forest, and you're still alive. The audience here will only think that you are just another drunken idiot who is bragging.

But today, a figure that was clearly not a dark elf rode into the dark forest. He was hidden in a huge black cloak. The moment he entered the dense forest, eight dark elves on horseback sprang out of nowhere and wrapped him in the middle. The eight dark elves seemed to be leading his way while keeping him safe. Ride all the way into the depths of the forest.

This is a very strange phenomenon. Because the dark elves are known to hate all humanoid creatures that are not of their own race. "It's not a vengeful elf, it's either enslaved or killed." They say this a lot. And why would humanoid creatures be treated so blatantly as VIPs after entering the Dark Forest? These guards, aren't they afraid that their family will be wiped out by other dark elves?

A group of nine people stopped beside the Abyss Cave. The next step is to walk.

It is said to be a cave, but it is actually the entrance to the underground world excavated by the dark elves over thousands of years. And these dark elves, who hate light more than their fellow living in the jungle, are also known as abyssal elves. Unlike the "Dark Elves", they are fond of the term "Abyssal Elves".

Nine people take an elevator to the depths of the earth. The guards lit torches that the dark elves never used to light the way for the guests. After a short walk, you will come to a road entrance. A car waits on the side of the road. The car was pulled by two huge underground lizards and sped through the corridor. A few hours later, we arrived at the gates of a splendid palace. This is the palace of "that family". No one dared to name their family at will. Because this is the most powerful family of the dark elves, there is no one. They are so loved by the goddess of sin. So much so that every year at the Blood Festival, the traditional festival of the dark elves, Mina would visit there and become their family's guest.

The guards ushered the dignitaries into the main hall of the palace. The head mother of the family is waiting for him. To welcome his arrival, many candles were lit in the hall. This is a rarity that the Abyssal Elves only use when they are religious or when they read and write, because they do not need light at all in their daily lives.

"Human males. I heard that you are going to convey the wishes of the Lord. The mistress smiled majestically and luxuriously, and said in a very restrained tone, trying to maintain a friendly state.

The Dark Elves are strictly familial, matrilineal. The supreme leader of each noble family is the head of the family. The council of the nine most powerful houses is the supreme authority of the Dark Elves.

The status of men is extremely low. Even the top male status of the nobles, the head of the family warrior, and the chief mage of the family is only slightly higher than the existence of the female commoners of the dark elves, nothing more. It is far inferior to the priesthood monopolized by women, and the head of the family is even more unattainable.

It stands to reason that the men of the Dark Elves are not qualified to speak to the Mistress. Men who are not dark elves are considered pariahs of untouchables. The housewife, who was standing at the top of the dark elf society, was able to put down her body and talk politely to this male guest, which shows that the identity of the other party is by no means simple.

"See Her Majesty Bridget Darkabyss, Pope of the Goddess of Sin, Head of the Vengeful Elven Council, and Mother of the First Family." The man took off his hood and respectfully saluted the mistress.

The mistress did not signal for the male to sit down. It's not because of her arrogance that she discriminates against the male creature in front of her. It's that in his hundreds of years of life, he has never had the habit of letting men sit down. So much so that I didn't even think about letting the other person sit down and talk.

The man didn't care. Continue to politely say, "Mistress Mina, the goddess of sin. All the while, very disgusted with a mortal, this person must die. And I just know where she is, and now is the best time to do it. His Majesty's family will surely become famous. All lowly creatures, elves and humans, will tremble at the hearing of His Majesty's name. ”

"Oh?" The mistress was suddenly in high spirits. He got up and walked in front of the human male, his eyes glowing with a dark red.

"She's ...... now," the man was about to elaborate.

"Shhhh......h ”

The man raised his head and met the hot gaze of the mistress without fear. The words replied in a rounded manner.

"Kanna Augustus."
