After a long and exhausting negotiation, Daeron returned to his private room. He leaned his stiff back and sighed at the chair behind his desk. Daeron stared at the ceiling while muttering. "The nobles are selfish and stubborn." His complaint. Once again he breathed a long and heavy breath.
Elf King Daeron Mablung, a former scholar famous for his ability in both literacy, political understanding, economics and the drafting of magic circles in the making of runes. You could say Daeron is an important figure that supports the stability of the current elf kingdom.
"They're coming up with very nonsensical ideas. Thinking that the high elves are superior to other tribes, it does not make you always have to look up with your nose facing the sky." His grunt.
As king, Daeron would definitely reject the arguments of the high elves. How could he possibly sacrifice his people to guard this land while they just lie behind the scenes holding a glass of wine and watching what happens like a theater show.
"The queen will be very angry if she finds out this. Although I said that I would discuss their ideas with the Queen, but one hundred percent I was sure that my wife would not bother to think twice to listen to their ridiculous statements. Hahhh~"
The elf kingdom. Whether it was the born son or daughter or even an elf from the common circle, as long as he had the blessing of the Yggdrasil tree then that person had the final say in every action the kingdom took. In short, he was the true ruler of that elf kingdom. Therefore, although he had a position as a king, Daeron himself could not make a decision directly. He had to wait for the Queen to decide.
For hundreds of years, the current elf queen had led the kingdom well. He was from the same high elf tribe but he did not take one hand.
"Baginda. The Queen arrives and wishes to see you."
"Please let him in."
The soft golden-colored long hair gently swayed smoothly as the woman walked in. He gave off a graceful and elegant impression that was able to make people avert his gaze. His bright green eyes like pure emerald crystals were completely suitable for an elf race leading the forest.
"Greet Your Majesty." The queen greeted me gently while lifting a little under her skirt like a noble in general.
Daeron looked at her with a flat look. "You could go straight in. Why bother asking for my permission and forget the formalities."
The queen walked over to one of the couches and sat down. "What makes your face tangle like that?" Ask Queen. His words and tone quickly changed. But Daeron was not surprised, they had known each other for a long time because before becoming a couple they were friends when they were young.
"Is this because of them again?" From that huffed expression, the Queen could already guess it. No one else could make the king in a dilemma or confusion other than those high elf nobles.
"I don't think I need to explain it at length. They again propose something excessive."
"It was their fault that the outside world branded the elves as a proud race. Heh! Long ago, though hundreds of years had passed and I had tried my hardest to dispel the scourge, but they were so stubborn as to keep that ridiculous habit."
The queen clasped her hand. He then crossed both his legs. The way he breathes seems to be angry. "I have eliminated one but instead grown two. When I silenced their ancestors, even their grandchildren acted." Queen clucking. He picked up a cup of tea and a piece of pastry that had been prepared by a waiter before.
"This time. What else did they say?" The queen asked Daeron by furrowing her brows.
"They want us to recruit more people to keep Yggdrasil stable. With cause for concern, they even willingly donated some of their property for the safety of this country."
The Queen did not know what to say. Recruiting? Keeping safety? Donate their treasures? Should he be happy? Instead, the Queen is heating up.
"I don't care about their possessions. But recruiting people again with ridiculous excuses like keeping this country safe?! Why aren't they just advancing! After all they had more Mana capacity than any other elf tribe."
Queen down. "Are they not satisfied and aware of his sacrifice. Thanks to him Yggdrasil was able to survive until half this year." Speak slowly.
"I won't grant you anything they ask. In the future, tell me I'm busy, not feeling well and can't be bothered."
Daeron could only massage his temple while nodding his wife's words. "All right."
The queen came out of the room. He was silent and still standing at the door remembering the girl he had just met. "Elysia. I will definitely save you from there. Therefore, please stay safe."

Although he came back to life and recovered from his injuries after obtaining the Mana Heart, there were still some wounds in his body that he had to recover. After setting up a small formation to absorb the energy around, Alice sat cross-legged in it to repair some of her broken meridian points.
"I want to make a bigger formation. Unfortunately it will definitely attract the attention of many." Her thought.
The battle against Echidna. In the final seconds, Alice forced herself to the point of nearly blowing up her Dantian. He sacrificed his cultivation to the point of draining his life force, but fortunately said Zhou Yun, Alice can restore his cultivation quickly as before.
In a simple inn, Echidna is tasked with watching around while Alice recovers herself.
"Uncle wolf are you there..." Echidna called out to Fee slowly.
The black shadow slowly gathered under his feet, condensing then Fee jumped out of it. "What's wrong?"
"It's about mama..." Echidna glumly, she glanced at Alice at a glance. "Mama hasn't recovered and I'm sure the place we're going to is definitely dangerous. Looking at the current situation of the elf kingdom. I'm worried that mom will get hurt."
"...." - ".Fee turned to look at Alice, he looked back at Echidna. "You're becoming more mature. That girl, I'm sure she has established her determination to get there no matter what. I want to hold it in, too, but.."
"You don't have to worry." Alice chimed them. "Hi, Fee. You're finally out, too." Greet Alice with a smile. He then stood up, walking out of the formation. It seems he's done.
"Maybe only 30 percent more of my strength will be fully recovered." Alice walked up to Echidna and she patted her head gently. " Thank you for worrying about me."
"What your daughter said has a point. You better not force yourself." Fee Say.
"It's not that I'm reckless but it's my promise to someone."
Fee was stunned for a moment to see the look of hopeful eyes. The eyes were soft but implied sadness in them. "It's my fault for not being able to protect you back then." Her speech. Fee bowed in embarrassment as he recalled the day the girl before his eyes was stiffened on the ground.
Alice laughed softly. "It wasn't your fault. I was prepared for all the consequences. Neither Echidna nor you, you are not wrong." Alice Obviously.
I even thanked him for being able to meet him again. His inner.
