The Wind Forest was filled with lush greenery, and all types of birds were flying through the forest. This forest was known as the Norland's Eye, and was widely acknowledged to be the most ancient and beautiful forest on the continent.
The elves, who symbolized elegance and beauty, lived here. They were in perfect harmony with nature, making the plants and trees their friends and even battle partners. Their miraculous ability made all races exclaim in admiration.
As such, the Tree of Life became the holy tree of the elven race, symbolizing the harmonious relationship between the elves and nature.
However, many of the towering ancient trees had been felled and turned into lumber.
The treehouses and wooden cabins in the forest had disappeared, and majestic palaces had appeared in their place. The rings on the trees, which were hundreds and thousands of years old, seemed to be crying for something.
However, the elves who were hurrying through the palaces didn't seem to be paying any attention to all of this. It was as if they had already forgotten how many elven warriors' corpses were buried under the forest that their ancestors had once guarded.
It had been three days since the elven princess returned to the forest. The events that had taken place outside The Wind Forest that night were still brewing in the forest, and there seemed to be terrifying waves brewing beneath the calm surface.
In a grand palace, several elderly elves were gathered together. If any other elves were to see this, they would definitely be surprised to see all of the major elven families' leaders gathered here.
"Bastard! How many times has Irina ruined our plans?! She killed Schubert, changed the laws, and even set free the slaves that were sent out of the forest! Does she still have us in her eyes? Does she think she's already a queen?! " A slightly obese elf roared in rage. The fat on his body trembled, and his red face appeared to be extremely furious.
"That's right. Those mercenary groups don't even dare to come to The Wind Forest to deliver goods. If this continues, our supply of goods will be completely cut off. I was thinking of getting a few young and beautiful girls to warm my bed during this winter," a tall and thin elf beside him said in a frustrated manner.
All of the elves in the palace wore furious expressions, and they were all cursing at Irina.
The elderly elves sitting near the head of the table were quite calm, and didn't participate in the cursing. However, their tightly furrowed brows indicated that they weren't as calm as they appeared to be.
"That's enough." The tall elf sitting at the head of the table said with some displeasure. The hall gradually quieted down, and everyone's eyes fell on him.
"Master Borg, what do you think we should do now?" one of the elves asked in a quiet voice as he looked at the tall elf in a slightly fearful manner.
Borg Celt was the grand elder of the Segate Family, as well as the number one War God of the elven race. He had led the elven warriors to many victories during the war among species, and his prestige among the elven warriors was second only to that of the elven queen. In the hearts of his personal guards, Borg Celt was paramount.
There were rumors that his strength was close to that of the Elven Queen, and he was known as the number one warrior of the Elven Race.
There were also rumors that the queen had been severely injured during the war and had spent most of her time in seclusion. Her injuries had most likely worsened, and Borg was most likely the most powerful being in the elven race.
The Elven Queen was hereditary, and Irina had always been regarded as the successor of the Elven Queen.
However, Irina was very aggressive, and she was extremely displeased with the elven system, so she was constantly trying to change everything.
This made all of the elves who were enjoying their current status quite uneasy, but in the face of Irina's fearsome aptitude and the Elven Queen's indulgence, no one dared to do anything.
Three years ago, she had given birth to Alex's child, and that scandal had given rise to some other ideas among the elves.
Some elves were trying to elect a purer elven princess to inherit the throne, such as Helena and her branch of elves. They were constantly searching for suitable elves to become the successor.
However, some elves began to develop other ideas as they looked at Borg.
Borg was only around 600 years old, and given the elves' long lifespans of over 1,000 years, nothing would have to change if he were to become the elven king. In fact, they would be able to do whatever they wanted.
The Sette Family was the most powerful family in the elven race, and they received the most elven slaves each year. Borg also liked to select slaves himself, and it was said that the Sette Family had to dispose of the corpse of an elven maiden every day.
Borg cast his gaze toward all of the elves, and said in a grim voice, "Irina's actions have already threatened our system and threatened our rule. If we can't repress her, things like this will only continue to happen, and they will only become more and more frequent. When that time comes, the forests that we've fought so hard to protect and the families that we've built will be completely destroyed, and our loved ones will be plunged into endless pain again. "
All of the elves' auras gradually became heavier as flames of fury burned in their eyes.
"We must protect our system with our lives!"
One of the elves gritted his teeth.
"Irina is not a law-abiding princess. She gave birth to a child with a human, killed the mercenary squad that we hired, and released the traitor that we went to great lengths to capture. Her actions have already endangered the very existence of our family, and this is something that cannot be tolerated. Hence, we have to do something about it." Borg's eyes were as cold as ice, and there seemed to be a frosty aura emanating from his voice.
All of the elves' auras gradually began to accelerate. They had already envisioned this scenario countless times, but Schubert's death was like a bucket of cold water that had been poured over their heads. However, now that Borg had stepped forward and decided to target Irina, the flames in their hearts were reignited once again.
"However, we received news from Rodu two days ago that Alex is still alive, and he killed six 10th-tier powerful beings, as well as Benson …" Elliot, the leader of the Brewster Family, said in a hesitant manner.
His words were like a bucket of cold water that extinguished the flames that had just been ignited within all of the elves, and a hint of panic appeared on all of their faces.
Indeed, the fact that Irina had given birth to a child with a human was something that all of the elves despised, but no one could ignore the fact that the child's father was Meg Alex.
This man had been deemed dead three years ago, but he had reappeared two days ago. On top of that, he had slain several 10th-tier powerful beings, including the spatial demon patriarch Benson, and announced the return of the most fearsome man on the Norland Continent.
Seeing as Alex was still alive and had saved Irina two days ago, no one knew if he would appear in The Wind Forest if they chose to target Irina now.
The entire palace fell silent as all of the elves turned to Borg again.
