The music began to play, and the elves looked at Sally with fervent eyes as she ascended the platform.
They were witnessing the history of the elven race. A new elven princess was about to ascend the throne, and she might even become the new queen in the future.
However, most of the elves had forgotten that this music had once been played in the sky above The Wind Forest during wartime. It was known as the Sound of Freedom.
The tens of thousands of branches of the Tree of Life swayed gently as if it were reminiscing the past.
Elliot's eyes shone with excitement. Every step that Sally took meant that the Brewster Family's status had risen. Among the eight major families, the Brewster Family's status would truly transcend with Sally becoming the elven princess.
Vincent glanced at Blour with a complicated expression and a hint of guilt in his heart.
Sally finally ascended the platform and stood at the same height as Helena. She looked down with a calm expression. There wasn't a hint of ecstasy from becoming the elven princess. It was as if everything that was happening now had nothing to do with her.
Helena looked at Sally with satisfaction. Although Sally's power and talent were inferior to Irina's, her temperament and mentality were far superior to her peers. This was why she had chosen Sally.
She didn't have much time left, but it was enough for her to nurture Sally into the true queen of the elves.
As for Elliot, a hint of mockery flashed through Helena's eyes. No one could control the elven queen. She couldn't, and the idiot Elliot couldn't either. However, his existence and that of the Brewster Family would make it easier for Sally to control the other major families.
Helena raised her hands, and all the elves quieted down. She then said, "Her Majesty is still in seclusion, but we can't just leave the elven princess empty. Today, I will host the conferring ceremony on behalf of Her Majesty. Under the witness of the Tree of Life, I confer Sally as the new elven princess!"
All the elves looked at Sally with burning eyes. Irina had tried to overthrow the system of the elven race and turn them into dust.
Now, they were about to have a new princess who would lead them to continue their glory and enjoy a high status.
"After the princess ascends to the throne, she will give the order to hang all the traitors who tried to overthrow The Wind Forest to express our determination to defend the ruling authority. She will also warn those who have been bewitched that meaningless resistance will only lead to death and will not bring about any change." Helena's cold voice was filled with warning as she swept her gaze across all of the elves below the stage.
Pity flashed through some of the elves' eyes, while others avoided Helena's gaze in panic. However, there were even more elves with fanatical joy in their eyes.
Everyone knew that the Night Elves who had joined the darkness would die today, but they didn't expect that this order would be given by Sally.
Helena's gaze stopped on Blour.
Blour also didn't avert his gaze. Instead, he met Helena's gaze with a calm expression. There was no pity or elation in his eyes, and it was as if he had no reaction to Helena's words.
A hint of surprise flashed across Helena's eyes. She had investigated all the young elves, but she didn't pay much attention to this third young master of the Baibilly Family who didn't have a good reputation. She only learned about him after Sally requested to extend the marriage contract. Now, it seemed like he was even more surprising than what she had heard in the reports.
If he can be obedient, letting him become the male elf behind the queen is also a good choice. None of the young elves are worthy of Sally now, Helena thought.
Sally's fingers twitched when she heard Helena's words. Although she still looked calm, it was obvious that she wasn't calm inside.
Helena looked at Sally, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "The transition of power is inevitably bloody. If you want to gain the respect and support of these fellows below the stage, then you have to tell them that you are on their side and show enough determination and determination."
Sally looked at her and didn't answer.
Helena didn't care. She raised her right hand, and a silver light gradually condensed on her palm. A silver crown appeared on her palm, emitting a dazzling silver light.
The music suddenly stopped, and the square quieted down. The elves looked up at the silver crown with reverence in their eyes.
The queen wore the golden crown, while the silver crown belonged to the princess.
After wearing the silver crown, it meant that Sally would officially become the new elven princess. She would have a noble status that was second only to the queen.
"Sally, come forward," Helena said to Sally.
Sally looked at the silver crown floating in the air, and hesitated for a moment before slowly walking in front of Helena.
"Sally, are you willing to become the elven princess and protect The Wind Forest and all the elven citizens?" Helena asked loudly as she looked into Sally's eyes.
Her voice spread throughout Life Square, and even the elves watching from the outside could hear her clearly.
All the elves held their breaths and stared intently at Sally, waiting for the historic moment to arrive.
Sally looked at Helena, and was silent for a moment. Her gaze gradually became determined, and she nodded solemnly. "I am willing to protect The Wind Forest and all the elven citizens!"
Her voice also reverberated throughout the entire Wind Forest, and she placed extra emphasis on the last few words.
"Very good. Then I shall confer you the title of elven princess on behalf of Her Majesty. You shall bear the heavy responsibility of protecting the elven race." Helena nodded slightly, and put the silver crown on Sally's head with a solemn expression on her face.
The silver crown shone brightly under the sun.
Sally, who was wearing a silver dress, seemed to have a noble and queenly aura as she stood on the platform. All the elves seemed to see Irina's shadow in her.
"Princess Sally!"
"Princess Sally!"
The elves in the square half-knelt on the ground and saluted Sally, and then cheered.
They had witnessed a historic moment. After Irina betrayed The Wind Forest, they had a new princess, a princess who stood on their side.
Most of the elves in the square had gratified smiles on their faces. This development was very much in line with their expectations. They and their descendants would continue to rule this forest for many years to come, and enjoy a high status.
Helena raised her hand, and the square gradually quieted down again. The elves slowly stood up, and stared at the Tree of Life behind the platform with fervent gazes.
Every Elven Princess would receive the blessing of the Sacred Tree of Life and its protection, as well as an increase in strength.
"Great God of Life, your sincere believer and servant, I pray for your witness to let the Tree of Life acknowledge Sally's identity and become her companion tree." Helena half-knelt in front of the Tree of Life and prayed sincerely.
"Are you worthy?"
A mocking voice sounded from the direction of the Tree of Life.
