"Star magic! Has Mistress Helena stepped in? " In the Brewster Family's territory, Elliot was looking toward the west with a hint of surprise in his eyes. That was Schubert's territory, and even though it was quite far away, he could still sense some magic fluctuations.
He had just received news that Princess Irina had emerged from her cave, but who would've thought that Mistress Helena would step in so soon? Was the elven race about to undergo a major change?
Immediately thereafter, the Tree of Life began to shine like a scorching torch, illuminating countless pairs of eyes.
"Her Highness has become even more powerful. If it weren't for what happened all those years ago, she would be preparing to inherit the throne by now, right?" In the Baibilly Family's territory, Family Head Vincent was looking at the green ribbon that was connected to the Tree of Life. Obtaining the approval of the Tree of Life was one of the requirements for becoming the elven queen. Those who couldn't obtain its approval didn't deserve to become the elven queen.
"What happened all those years ago meant that a battle between Her Highness and Mistress Helena was inevitable. I just don't know what the outcome will be, and who Her Majesty will side with this time. As for the young mistress of the Brewster Family, as long as Her Majesty doesn't give up on Princess Irina, there's no hope for her. Whether this marriage is worth fighting for will depend on how this farce ends, "Vincent murmured to himself with furrowed brows as he fell into deep thought.
Within The Wind Forest, countless elves were looking up at this scene. Some of them were stunned, while others were filled with anticipation.
The lofty high priestess and great elder of the elven race, Mistress Helena, was pitted against the much-loved and revered Princess Irina. A clash between these two was bound to have a profound impact on the elven race.
However, most of the elves didn't know why the two people who stood at the top of the elven race had a conflict that escalated to the point of fighting.
All of the elves in front of the Krol Family's castle were aware of this, so they were even more in awe and veneration.
After killing Schubert, Princess Irina didn't back down in the face of Helena's interrogation. Instead, she challenged her to a duel.
Mistress Helena was the number one being below the elven queen, and she had already become a great magic caster 500 years ago. She had turned the tables on several occasions during the war among species, and was extremely powerful.
Princess Irina had also left behind many legends during her travels across the Norland Continent. She was only 30 years old, but she was already one of the most powerful great magic casters in the world. The green light shone upon her body, giving her a green light that was filled with vitality.
Starry Sky Magic and Holy Light Magic clashed head-on. The clash between darkness and light was so strong that it made people want to bow their heads. Even the members of the Krol Family kept their mouths shut, not daring to say a word.
Everyone held their breaths as they waited for the elven race's battle of the century to begin. No one could predict the outcome, and no one dared to imagine what kind of impact it would have on the elven race.
"Let's stop. If the elves fight among themselves, those greedy foreign races will soon step into The Wind Forest and cause another calamity to befall this pure land."
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded.
The night sky dissipated, and the sun shone down upon the earth again. The green ribbon was severed down the middle, and the dazzling light emanating from the Tree of Life also faded.
In the air outside the Krol Castle, a silver-haired elf in a long golden robe appeared. She wore a golden crown with a blue crystal embedded on her head. She was extremely beautiful, and it was impossible to tell her age. She had the innocence of a 12- or 13-year-old girl, the youthfulness of a 17- or 18-year-old girl, the charm of a 30-year-old woman, and the gentleness of a 40-year-old woman. Different people would have different feelings toward her, but her pure and holy aura seemed to be able to cleanse one's soul.
Faint golden light enshrouded her body, and it was gentle but not piercing to the eyes. She wore a compassionate and gentle smile on her face, and her blue eyes were clear and transparent, as if they could see through everything in this world.
"We pay our respects to our queen!"
All of the elves knelt down on one knee with reverence in their eyes.
Even in places even further away, all of the elves half-knelt toward the Krol Family as a sign of respect upon hearing the elven queen's voice.
"We pay our respects to our queen." Irina lowered her head as she put away her staff.
"We pay our respects to our queen." Helena hesitated momentarily before also putting away her wand and extending a salute toward the queen.
"Rise, all of you." The elven queen nodded before raising a hand, and a burst of invisible power helped all of the elves to their feet. Her gentle voice spread throughout The Wind Forest, and all of the elves also rose to their feet.
"Your Majesty, Princess Irina killed Family Leader Schubert for no reason. Please uphold justice for our Krol Family and uphold justice for Family Leader Schubert." Schubert's younger brother stepped forward and knelt down on both knees again as he looked at the elven queen with grief in his eyes. Schubert's body was lying right beside him.
"Please uphold justice, Your Majesty!" All of the Krol Family members also knelt down again with expressions of grief on their faces.
The elven queen looked at Schubert's body with a sympathetic expression, and she raised a finger, upon which a burst of green light fell upon his body. All of the bloodstains on his body and on the ground disappeared, and his head also returned to normal. However, he was still dead, and even the elven queen couldn't bring him back to life.
"Little Irina, why did you kill him?" The elven queen looked up at Irina, and her voice was still as gentle as ever, but there was a hint of interrogation in it.
"Because he deserved to die. You know that I never attack good people." Irina looked at the elven queen with a serious expression, and her eyes were filled with stubbornness and determination.
The elven queen looked at Irina with a hint of emotion in her eyes, and she fell silent for a moment.
"Just because you said he deserved to die, you killed a warrior who had risked his life for the elven race on many occasions, a minister who had done everything he could for the sake of the elven race, and the hope of a major family. Princess Irina, I need a more detailed explanation from you, not a subjective judgment. Even if you're a princess, you can't kill a minister for no reason." Helena looked into Irina's eyes with a gaze as sharp as a hawk's.
