Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter IV Chapter 130

In her left hand, Helian played her index finger over the lip of her glass containing Malbec and her right hand propped up her chin as she put on a sullen face looking at Alice.

Malbec is one type of fermented drink from wine and of course the drink contains alcohol that can make drunk.

Alice herself had only ordered a grape juice that would not drive her crazy like the woman before her. Even if he drinks, Alice believes that a simple alcohol drink will not make him drunk.

Seeing and accompanying a woman with contemptuous eyes due to a slight hangover, who would believe that the half-drunken-looking person was actually a Queen.

Alice held onto her forehead and massaged it quietly. He took a long breath. "You haven't even drunk half of it yet, how come you've started getting drunk."

Helian narrowed her eyes. "Hngg~ I'm not drunk. At least I'm still conscious."

"Yes, yes, that's what drunkards often say." Reply Alice while wagging her hand lazily at Helian. "So, what are you gonna do? You already know the root of the problem, so are you going to keep letting them be like that?"

Helian hit the table with her glass, instantly making the other customers turn towards them. "B*a*ingan br***that second! Of course if I could, I would eliminate them all at once." Ketus.

Alice laughed awkwardly at the attitude of a Queen who really did not look dignified and dignified. That sentence just now was more suitable for a thief than a noble.

"I am gathering some evidence to ensnare them according to the laws of this kingdom. If necessary, I will issue the Queen's decree. But it's still too early. I need something more concrete so they can't dodge it."

"Why are you so long-winded? aren't you Queen, you have power and power. Why not press them with that?"

"You're.really...But!" Helian paused for a moment to gulp down her drink. "I'm not like them. I'm not a tyrant. Maybe they'll judge me weak but I'm sure strength isn't always the solution to everything."

Alice smiled faintly at Helian's reply. To find a ruler seemed to be a rare thing. It seemed that wisdom was also what made Alice not look at Helian one eye. As a fellow female ruler, Alice knew how difficult it was to deal with internal or external issues that occurred domestically.

"You know. Your expression doesn't reflect what you just said." Alice laughed softly.

"You're this~" Helian snorted angrily and brought the glass closer to her lips but Alice immediately held it back.

"Stop drinking. You haven't told me everything. I don't want you to lose consciousness until I have to make it hard to take you back to the palace."

"..." - ".Helian put down her glass without saying a word. He nodded once.

"You haven't finished answering my question. What are you gonna do with them?"

Merely asking, although actually Alice did not have the intention to help Helian solve all the problems of her kingdom but Alice was a little pity to see the state of her new friend.

Helian stared blankly for a moment then hiccupped once. He massaged both corners of his eyes to restore his focus. Then Helian took her breath. "Right now the elf kingdom is under a lot of trouble. The black crystal that had appeared six months ago, until now we still have not found a solution to eliminate it. Not to mention the stubborn nobles and difficult to work with, also the news about the emergence of rebel organizations." Helian gave a long and heavy sigh. He put both his hands to the side of his head. "Aackh!" He shook his head.

Alice slowly stretched out her index finger and touched Helian's cheek. He pressed her slowly while saying. "Let me help you."

Helian fell silent. He immediately raised his head. As she had realized from her drunkenness, Helian looked at Alice with wide, sparkling eyes. "You? Helping me? Really?"

Helian was a little incredulous. Although it was a bit of a taboo to let outsiders interfere in the affairs of the elven kingdom, but right now he and his kingdom were really on the edge.

Alice nodded with a smile. "certain. But first I want you to focus on addressing the political issues of this kingdom especially those high elves. About that black crystal, just leave it to me."

The noble status the high elves had was not foreign to Alice who was a Duke's daughter. Yet the way they used that status was like they thought everyone other than their group was a worthless little insect. Alice knew how difficult it was to overcome their ideology, therefore it was better for her to let Helian overcome the problems related to her own people.

Helian pushed half her body up to the table to grab Alice's hand. He held it tightly. "Thank you. I can finally be a little relieved..."

Alice flicked at Helian's forehead making him scream in pain. "Your hood is almost out."

Helian chuckled while stroking her forehead.

"But to do that, I had to approach the Yggdrasil tree. I sensed that the black crystal was related to the Yggdrasil tree. Does that not matter?"

Without a second thought, Helian nodded her head.

Alice extended her hand to shake hands. Helian grabbed Alice's hand, the two had agreed to cooperate with each other.

"After all, I did have to destroy the black crystal to achieve my goal and I believe that the Yggdrasil tree has a close connection to their power." Benak Alice's.

After examining the black mucus and black crystals that were scattered in several places on his way home. Alice concludes that their energy source is in the same direction, the Yggdrasil tree.

The depth of this problem can be measured. Working with Helian will make the movement a little smooth to approach the Yggdrasil tree. The moment the Queen gave her permission, the guards standing around the tree would definitely let her pass easily.

Alice sipped her drink.

He asked back. "Then, what about your sister? Do you mind telling me? I also have a little sister, maybe I can give you some advice." He said with a mocking smile as if he was proud of his relationship with his sister.

"Ugh!!!"

Bitterer. Helian could only stare at Alice in annoyance without being able to dodge.
