"A very nice human castle. It's a little smaller, but it's delicate, and it looks like they've been cleaned with a lot of care, which shows how much they pay attention to. ”

Outside the walls of the castle, Lorensto ched his chin and carefully looked at the Haringos Castle in front of him, as if admiring some exquisite work of art, with a smile of great enjoyment on his face: "The builder of this castle must be a rather old architect, although it looks a little clumsy, but there is a sense of magnificent atmosphere, as if it is unshakable." ”

"Yes, it seems to me that this castle is no different from the castle of Kainie that we had seen when we came here. Bode, with a tangled face, stood behind Lawrence with his long knife, pulling his sister Sibeia along, "It's all made of a pile of big stones." ”

"How can it be the same?!The structure of Fort Kengie is completely inferior to this, whether it is the design or the appearance, I dare say that the castle must often leak during the rainy season, and ......" Lawrence, who wanted to explain, gave up the explanation after seeing Bode's impatient expression, shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "Okay, don't talk about this, remember what I told you when I came?"

"The purpose of our visit is to assist humanity in the fight against the orc invasion, and as for the settlement of the humans' own disputes, Noldor will not express any opinion. If they don't make a decision, then the joint matter can only be delayed and not taken sides!" Lawrence said sentence by sentence: "This is the bottom line, all conditions can only be carried out under this premise, do you understand?"

"Don't worry, as long as you come to speak then, won't you?" Bode waved his hand indifferently, and patted Sibea on the shoulder beside him by the way: "Did you say......? Sibea?"

Seeing the female ranger's stunned expression, Bode stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes, and the girl woke up suddenly, looking at the two who were staring at her with some nervousness: "What, what's wrong?

"............" Lawrence, who felt deeply powerless, pursed out a smile with great difficulty: "Ah~, it's nothing, just to say, after we go in, please try not to express any opinions, just try to represent Anduria's attitude, what do you think?"

"Of course, isn't that what my father told me when he came?" Sibea also understood that she was distracted, and a smile of embarrassment appeared on her face: "You can take care of it, Lawrence." ”

"You can be in charge~" Lawrence instantly fell into a sluggish state, and his ability to speak well was forgotten in an instant, and Sibea's smile on him was like the first ray of morning light outside the window, shining into the gray heart, and a feeling of redemption came from the inside out, making him feel that his soul was about to fly into the sky!

"Leave it all to me, I will not let you, oh no, disappoint our great Forest of Silence, the birds of the forest will bless me to accomplish this sacred and solemn mission!" Lawrence had a saint-like generous and righteous countenance, and his clenched fists hung down on his chest: "All this is for the peace and stability of Shijie!"

Sibea looked at Lawrence's solemn expression a little inexplicably, feeling hairy in her heart, but she was not too embarrassed to hurt such a noble feeling of the other party. I had to follow suit: "May the birds of the forest bless you, Lawrence of the Lagranges." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"It is a great honour to be here in this solemn and sacred hall, and only in the name of the great Anduria, in the Lower Lawrence Lagrange, and in the Mademoiselle Sibea and Master Bode of the House of Ardalia, to give a ...... to all of you Nobles, pay your respects to the Noldor. ”

Lawrence stood alone in the middle of the hall, looking around and showing his sincere respect to everyone, and his attitude was so polite that even Virgil behind Theodore had to admit that even he could not have done better.

"Are you sure this is a self-righteous Noldor elf?" Virgil asked Theodore in surprise, "I have almost seen one of the most skilled court ceremonies!"

"This only shows that the other party is well prepared. Theodore raised his eyebrows: "The more polite it is, the more it shows that the Noldor elves intend to take matters into account, and it seems that they can't be counted on." ”

"Before you speak, can you tell us what the Noldor Elves are here to do?" an old knight from the Kwyn River asked, "This is Haringos, not your Forest of Silence." If you don't convince everyone of your good intentions, I'm afraid it's hard to accept. ”

"We have come only for peace. Lawrence was not in a hurry or annoyed, with a relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth: "The orcs are gathering in the south, and the Balitu tribe is using various means to gather all the tribes under their Ashina Khan. Maybe two years, maybe less. We're about to face a united orc kingdom!"

"Maybe you don't quite understand what this word means, this elder. Lawrence smiled and walked towards the old lord, causing the other party to take a step back inexplicably, for fear that this elf would rush up and kill him: "Just one tribe of Tar with 20,000 warriors has captured the castle of Tulgar, which is guarded by the Knights of Dawn, and taken the largest city state of the dwarves, Zingar, and turned the southern part of the Silent Forest into ruins!"

Lawrence's voice grew louder and stronger, approaching the old lord step by step, and frightened him back again and again: "If the Balitu tribe unifies the orcs, they will be able to gather at least 100,000 warriors!

"Why am I here, you ask? Lawrence stopped, turned his gaze back to Helena, who was sitting high on the main seat, and bent down humbly: "The future of the whole shijie!"

"Over the past year, Her Highness the Honourable Helena united the armies of Salion, Mithme, and Rome to help the Noldor Elves defeat the Tar tribe and reclaim New Gar with the Dwarves. Lawrence said, "Noldor is not a race that does not know how to be grateful and reciprocate, and we have never forgotten the helping hand of human shijie." Therefore, after learning of the fall of Severcro, Van La of Anduria ordered us to come and join you against the orc army that was trying to go north. ”

"Of course, all this is out of the kindness of Tomo Haode, and in return for such a sincere help to the human Shijie. He bowed his head slightly: "Noldor has no interest in the land and wealth of the human race, we only hope to defeat the bloodthirsty and crazy orcs, and we have no intention of anything else." ”

"Wait, Mr. Lawrence Lagrange, can you ask a question. His Excellency the Chief of the Guard from Laria nodded slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of inquiry: "According to what you just said, can we judge like this? The reason why you came is entirely because of the selfless help of His Highness Helena, and you want to help His Highness recapture Issos and restore the Holy Pander Empire?"

"How can this be? When will the Noldor Elves have the right to meddle in human affairs again?

"The independence of mankind was won by the great Aragorn, is Her Highness ready to let us lie at their feet once again?!"

............ The scene suddenly fell into the excitement of the crowd. All the lords watched warily at the Noldor elves standing in the hall, and the quick reaction of Sibea and Bode immediately protected Lawrence in the center in case someone who was particularly excited drew his sword.

"Quiet!" Tyrenus roared, his voice deep "Her Highness Helena has no intention of groveling to the Noldor Elves, all of this is in an alliance against the Orcs!"

"Then can I understand it that way?" the chief of the guard smiled again in the face of Terenus's extremely angry eyes, eager to kill him, "Your Highness never intended to borrow the Liliang of the Noldor Elves?"

"This ......" Terenus was choked at once, unable to speak with his mouth open. If so, then the lords present will definitely turn around and leave, and the east will become absolutely independent from now on, and even the choice of Salion and Mistermai is not easy to say. After all, humanity was freed from the rule of the Noldor, and to violate this would be to violate the original purpose of the Empire.

But if you say no, you are giving up a powerful boost. The alliance that had been built at great cost was likely to be dissolved. The weight of the promise is heavier than life, and even if Noldor really wanted to lend a helping hand, Helena would never accept it.

"It's my mission to reclaim Isos, not the Noldor Elves. Helena slowly stood up, calmly looked at the chief of the guard at the bottom of the stairs without fear, and declared her will like an emperor: "No matter whether there is anyone to help or not, no matter how many enemies there are." I will take back Issos, the imperial capital of Pendragon, from the orcs!"

"Salute to you, blood of the great Pendragon!" Despite bending down and bowing her head gracefully, Helena still did not feel a trace of humility and respect from the head of the guard: "This is the source of liliang belonging to the Radiant Cross!"

"I think you may have a slight misunderstanding of what we are doing!" Lawrence pushed Bode's body away and looked at the nervous "adults": "Noldor doesn't have any intention of interfering in human politics, as I said, we are only helping you defeat the orc army, as for recovering your homeland, it is not within our Jihua. ”

"There is only one person who can make such a request to Noldor - and that is the Human Emperor!"
