When the first rays of the morning sun shone on Silvermoon City, a half-elf guard yawned as he walked to his post.
He rubbed his sleepy eyes and prepared to start his day's work.
However, in the next second, he was completely stunned.
His eyes were wide open, and he was making a strange sound in his throat.
Then, his entire body began to tremble violently.
"Ugh —"
He vomited all over the ground.
As if it was a signal, after him, the sounds of vomiting, strange cries, and screams could be heard from the top of the city.
"Not good! Not good! The people from the East are coming again! "
An ear-piercing alarm suddenly broke the silence of the morning, causing Silvermoon City to be shrouded in a tense and stagnant atmosphere.
Even the last time Auston Viscounts led his army to besiege the city, the guards on the city wall were not so panicked.
Because last time, there was no mountain of skulls outside Silvermoon City.
Half-elf skulls!
Just two days ago, the Black Cavalry had rushed out of the city and killed the people from the East. At that time, the half-elf soldiers were asked to help clean up the battlefield.
The scene at that time was even more bloody than now, but the half-elves did not feel much.
After all, the people who died were from the East.
But now, the ones who died were the half-elves.
They were their compatriots.
The morning breeze brought with it a strong smell of blood, like the whistling of the Grim Reaper. It made it hard for people to breathe, and it made them feel like their organs were being torn apart.
The whimpering of the bugle was like a low wail, pulling at the hearts of every half-elf.
Just as the half-elf guards on the city wall were scared out of their wits by the terrifying scene in front of them, the people from the East did not immediately attack. Instead, they sent an envoy.
It was an old acquaintance, Auston Viscounts.
To be honest, Auston Viscounts did not want to come to Silvermoon City again. He already had some psychological trauma from this place.
But Marquis Vincent had ordered him to come, so he had to come.
Auston Viscounts saw Queen Aisha on the city wall. At that time, she was looking at the pile of half-elf skulls outside the city, lost in thought.
"Your Majesty, what you are seeing now is Marquis Vincent's warning to you. The Marquis came to Silvermoon City with the hope of peace, but I didn't expect you to not cherish this goodwill.
Therefore, the marquis was very angry!
However, Lord Marquis also said that as long as you are willing to change your mind and pull back from the precipice, then his goodwill will still be preserved for you. "
Queen Aisha was still staring blankly outside the city, as if she did not hear the warning from the Viscounts of Orston.
Viscounts Aston thought that the young queen was frightened and immediately felt disdain. Just as he was about to speak again, he heard the other party say leisurely,
"Viscounts Orston, do you know how to cultivate a beautiful Blood Rose?"
"Blood Rose?" Viscounts Orston was stunned, clearly not expecting Queen Aisha to suddenly ask such an irrelevant question.
He shook his head. "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I don't know how to grow flowers."
Queen Aisha suddenly looked back and smiled. Her flirtatious look in that instant stunned the Viscounts of Orston.
"To cultivate the best Blood Rose, you need fresh blood, and … skulls!"
Viscounts Orston frowned. He suddenly felt that he could not understand this beautiful half-elf queen.
Just as he did not know how to respond to the queen's words, Colin walked over and smiled. "The queen means that you can scram now!"
Viscounts Orston's face turned ashen. He said angrily, "Viscount Angley, you despicable fellow! If you didn't trick me last time, do you really think I would have lost to you? Just you wait, this time, Lord Marquis … "
"Viscounts Orston!" Queen Aisha interrupted him. "You can scram now!"
"Your Majesty! Don't listen to this Northern Frontier's slanderous words! He will only lead the half-elf kingdom into the abyss of despair! "
Queen Aisha turned around and looked sharply at Viscounts Orston. She said word by word, "Please go back and tell Marquis Vincent that the half-elves have their own choices! No one can make us submit! "
Viscounts Orston wanted to persuade her again, but seeing Colin's unfriendly gaze, he hurriedly bowed and ran away.
Colin held the battlements and took a deep breath of the bloody air. He sighed. "I'm sorry to have made you sacrifice so many of your people."
Queen Aisha shook her head. "You don't have to feel guilty. How can there be no sacrifices in war? Also, I actually feel that the half-elves should be thanking you. "
"Oh? Why are you thanking me? "
Colin was puzzled. Although Aisha was his blood descendant and had been brainwashed, she shouldn't have become his brainless fan, right?
Queen Elsa was bathed in the soft light of dawn. Her whole body seemed to be covered by a faint halo, making her look mysterious and beautiful. She said in a low and powerful tone, "You're right.
"The half-elves have been living a leisurely life under the wings of the Radiant Empire for too long. Most of our people have already forgotten how cruel the outside world is.
They have also forgotten that no amount of money can buy peace, let alone respect.
They have also forgotten that only swords and blood can win us the right to survive in this world!
Therefore, the half-elves need to make this sacrifice.
Only the blood and heads of our brethren can let the half-elves see the truth of the world and awaken the bravery in their hearts! "
Colin suddenly turned his head and looked at the half-elven queen beside him.
The morning light outlined her beautiful side profile, but in Colin's eyes, it was filled with strength and determination.
"I remember that your Miller family's emblem is thorns, right?"
"Yes, bloodstained thorns." Queen Aisha also turned her head and looked into the eyes of the man beside her. She said the Miller family's language word by word.
"Only bloodstained thorns can stop the enemy!"
Colin looked at Queen Aisha's deep blue eyes and suddenly smiled.
His smile was full of undisguised appreciation.
"I finally believe that you are the king that the half-elves yearn for even in their dreams!"
Queen Aisha also smiled and suddenly asked a rather critical question, "Aren't you worried that an awakened half-elven kingdom will be out of your control?"
Colin immediately laughed loudly, "Control? No, no, no! Compared to a weak slave that can be controlled, I hope to have a strong partner that can cooperate with me! "
Queen Aisha also smiled. Her perfect smile seemed to have completely dissipated the tension in the air.
She gathered her skirt, bent her knees, and bowed her head. She solemnly bowed to Colin and said softly, "Master Colin, I will always be your most loyal subordinate and most sincere partner!"
Colin smiled and helped Queen Elsa up. He leaned close to her ear and said in a low voice, "Don't worry.
"Since you want to awaken the bravery in your people, do you dare to play a big game with me?"
A blush quickly appeared on Queen Aisha's white and flawless cheeks. She obediently nodded and eagerly said:
"Of course!"
