"Your Royal Highness. The girl gestured gracefully at him in greeting.

"It's ...... What do you mean......" Ashrufat asked Carrie. But his eyes were irresistibly looking at the girl in front of him, looking at her slender but curvy body. I don't know which guy first created the saying "elven women's breasts are not plump enough", which makes this kind of rumor almost common knowledge in the Anthropocene world - but rumors are still rumors after all, and what Ashrufat sees in front of him is the best counterexample.

This elf girl's breasts, although it can't be said to be very large, are definitely quite desirable.

"Prince's privilege. In her mind, Carrie said. "Where do you think such a 'prince' came from? By the way, host, you can do anything to her. If one is not enough, you can do it again!"

"No kidding!" Ashrufat tried to retract his gaze.

"Well, master, I'm glad you remember your marital status. Carrie said with a grin. "Even if you're not loyal to Kotoshin-sama, at least you're loyal to Scarlet and Leia, and it's better to keep a little bit of it. Well," she noticed Ashrufat's mood, "no kidding, then. Master, if you want to really pretend to be an elf, then it's best to restrain your carnal/lust. At the moment we do not have any information about the relationship between the sexes of the elves, and we wonder if they have any special habits in this regard...... If you have a skin-to-skin relationship with an elf, they may find out about your disguise. ”

That's exactly what Ashrufat fears. In the realm of humans, there is really too little detailed information about elves. In the past, there were indeed cases of humans infiltrating the elven realm to impersonate elves. Unfortunately, this trick is often easy to debunk. This is because it is very difficult to learn the language of the elves in the first place, and the elves are usually reluctant to teach the language to humans, preferring instead to use the simpler way of communicating with humans in human language. The second is that the physiological characteristics of human beings are very obvious compared to those of elves, and human magical skills are very crude and easy to see through in the eyes of elves. Even if this daring infiltrator alters his ears with magical illusions, it is very easy to debunk. Examples like Ashrufat's who directly turned their ears into elven ears and actually mastered the elven language are unique and impossible for anyone to copy.

Eshurufat's kind of thing is really too rare for elves. So until now, even if the elves have doubts, they only doubt the origin of this "prince", and they will never think that he is not an elf at all. However, it is precisely because of this that if Ashrufat's true identity is revealed, the consequences cannot be predicted by himself. But he was sure it wasn't a happy ending.

The elven girl blinked, and was somewhat surprised to see that the prince seemed indifferent.

"Your Highness......" she tried to add a little temptation and hint to her voice.

"I'm tired today. Ashrufat replied in a deep voice. "I don't need you for the time being. And I'm leaving early tomorrow morning......"

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. The girl understood immediately. She hurriedly got up from the bed and made it with great skill. "I am the one who is making the assertion and has not asked for your opinion. ”

Fortunately, the prince did not appear angry, but watched her leave the room as fast as he could.

Ashruphat lay down on the bed, which was softer than the bed in his dark castle, and had a subtle elasticity that gave the illusion of "falling into a cloud". However, these should be the treatment of princes, and ordinary elven civilians should not have the opportunity to have such enjoyment.

"Master," said Carrie in her mind's eye, "I don't think what you said at the meeting is very appropriate. ”

"Oh?"

"You're lying, aren't you?" asked Carrie. "Because no matter how you look at it, as long as you send troops, the dark elves will definitely be able to detect it. They have spies in the city...... There must be scouts lying outside the city. ”

"That's right, that's what I judged. Ashrufat replied.

"But in that case, doesn't your dispatch of troops mean that the other side will immediately know about it, in case their numbers are not as suspicious as you expected......"

"Carrie, I'm 90% sure that the dark elves are deliberately disguising themselves and exaggerating their strength. They're stalling for time...... Although I don't understand what they are trying to do. But Thomas once taught me that on the battlefield, an important principle is not to do what the enemy wants. ”

"What if they're not suspicious?" asked Carrie abruptly. "You're taking a big risk......"

"If it weren't for the suspicion of the army, the dark elves would quickly mobilize their forces and prepare to meet them...... He even took the initiative to intercept me halfway as much as possible, so as to get the opportunity to chase down the defeated soldiers and rush into the city. And as soon as I receive the news that the enemy is attacking, I will immediately choose to retreat. ”

"But...... Master, why are you lying?"

"Well, of course because I didn't think of it!" replied Ashrufat. "I only came up with an idea on the fly, so I can only set a general direction, and the details have to be thought through and perfected slowly. ”

"Well, I thought you understood the true meaning of power......" Carrie sighed.

......

Karuf stared at the warlock in front of him. It was the worst news he'd ever gotten in days, and it couldn't have been worse. Ireber, the city that was destined to fall into his hands, actually had another prince.

It was really a mistake that he didn't attack the city immediately after killing Prince Berlan. At that time he had a chance—because the prince and his retinue were all killed on the spot. One of his subordinates proposed a cunning raid by donning the armor of the prince's retinue and opening the gates in the name of the prince. At that time, however, out of an abundance of caution, Kaluff decided not to adopt this suggestion, but to adopt a safer and, if not efficient, approach.

"Are you sure?" the dark elf lord asked again in a gloomy and terrifying tone. The warlock nodded a little fearfully. Although he knew that he was important to Karuf at the moment, that didn't mean he had any security.

"What is that prince's name??Where did he come from??," There should be no other prince in the Iribo region, is it just a trick of fate? A certain prince happened to come to Iribo at this time as a visitor? It seems that his plan has failed. Those stupid Azul will not easily evacuate the city when they have a leader, and their army will be able to fight as much as they can.

"According to the news from my spies, the prince's name is Ashrufat. ”

"Strange name...... Where did he come from?"

"His origin is unknown, his lineage has not been disclosed, and nothing is known except that his name is Ashrufat and that he is a prince. The warlock replied. He cringed when he said this, because the eyes of the dark elf lord flashed with a fierce light, the kind of light that chooses people to eat.

Thankfully, the Dark Elf Lord didn't make any unusual moves. He pondered for a moment, then waved the warlock away. As soon as the Warlock had gone, Karuf ordered his scout captain to come over.

In all this time, there have been frequent battles between the scouts of the two sides, and he has lost at least twelve seasoned scouts. Of course, the losses of the Yasur side will definitely not be less than this.

"The hosts. The scout captain walked into his tent.

"You told me before...... The detachments in the south have been wiped out. ”

It was the last bad news he got. Scouts found the burned Dark Elf camp, as well as graves and the corpses of hydra dragons. It was a terrible defeat, and not even a single Dark Elf escaped.

"Yes, master, I have confirmed it myself. The captain calmly prepared the right words so as not to irritate the lord in front of him. The dark elves are even more exaggerated than the Warrior Elves, and a lord not only has the allegiance of his subordinates, but also has the ability to control the lives of his subordinates. But from another point of view, the dark elves are more free than the martial elves, because in addition to their bloodline, they can also use their own strength to change their fate.

A perfect murder, an ingenious political conspiracy, a victory in a war, blah blah As long as you have ambition and strength, you can have unlimited space to climb to the top.

However, the captain does not have any superfluous ambitions at the moment - and even if he does, he can only bury them deep in his heart at the moment - and only faithfully carry out his mission as a subordinate.

"I examined several bodies and confirmed that most of them had died from arrow wounds, from bows and arrows without armor. Judging from the remaining arrows, it was the Azuls who attacked. ”

"So...... Was it a surprise raid?" said Karuf as he sat in his chair, his fingers rhythmically tapping on the armrest. "I really don't know how our Truszi clan would be so lax that the enemy attacked without even wearing armor?"

"If it is a surprise attack, the enemy has an overwhelming numerical superiority, so that the alert troops cannot even hold back...... It's also possible. In addition, master, I did not find any traces of horses' hooves around the battlefield. ”

"Overwhelming numbers...... So Yasur, who launched the attack...... At least a thousand or more. Launch a surprise attack with overwhelming superiority of forces and directly crush all organized resistance with a dense range of bows and arrows...... Surely even the multi-headed dragon was killed by a bow and arrow?"

"The carcass of the hydra is different...... The owner, the hydra at the base of its neck, was mortally attacked. There was a large wound to the heart, which I deduced was caused by a two-handed greatsword...... In addition to this, each head of the hydra was cut off. It was not a decapitation after death, but a cut in battle, and the cut was smooth and neat, caused by a two-handed greatsword. I deduced from this that it must have been done by a few of the Sword Saints of Hefu. There should have been five or more Juggernauts involved in the battle. They spread out, attracting the attack of the hydra and covering the surprise of one of their companions. The raider pierced the hydra's heart with a single sword. As the hydra struggled to its death, his companions cut off its head. There is no doubt that each of them is the best of the best. I believe there is a whole team of Juggernauts among the enemy. ”

"Damn the harbors! That's why I hate these port cities the most! Nobody knows when those ships will come! Nobody knows what the ships will come with with them! Now even the Sword Master of Hefu is here! No wonder a prince has popped up. ”
