"That's the statue of the last Elf King."
Curaldo's voice sounded out in Adil's ears.
Hearing Curaldo's words, Adil raised his head and looked at the altar.
In front of the altar stood a statue. It was a very handsome Elven man, holding a beautiful longsword in his hand. It was very similar to the Moon King's Sword that Adil wielded.
"Since ancient times, the Elven Royal Court and the High Priest have maintained the order and stability of the entire Elven Race."
At the side, seeing Adil's expression, Curaldo said, "The Elf Royal Court is responsible for governing the entire Elf Race, and the High Priest is the strongest person in the Elf Race. He is responsible for protecting all the Elves.
"As a pure-blooded Moon Elf, once you reach adulthood, you will automatically have power comparable to a Rank 4 Sorcerer. Right now, you are definitely the most suitable candidate to inherit the High Priest's position."
He turned and looked at Adil with murky eyes, his expression calm as he asked, "Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"I understand." Adil nodded, his expression calm and emotionless.
"Very good."
Curaldo then said, "From today onwards, you are my student.
"Behind the altar is a library that I've created, and it contains all of the knowledge that I can find.
You can come and go as you please. No matter what you need, the Elf Royal Court will do its best to satisfy you. "
He looked at Adil, a look of anticipation on his face as he said, "In half a month, I will hold a banquet for you and officially announce that you are my student in front of the various nobles.
You can make your preparations in advance. "
An ancient and aged voice sounded out, and in the next moment, the scenery around them changed.
A gentle breeze blew, and the fragrance of grass and trees wafted in from all directions.
Adil looked around and saw Andra, Lilith, and the other members of the Oris Family standing in the distance. They were anxiously waiting there.
Seeing Andra and the others, Adil did not go up to greet them and instead looked around.
In front of them was a flat piece of land, lit by torches. A few elven wizards stood at the side, watching Andra and the others closely.
They seemed to have received the news long ago. When they saw Adil coming over, the elven wizards bowed respectfully and slowly retreated to the side, giving Adil and the others some privacy.
At this moment, Andra and the others finally noticed Adil walking toward them from afar.
"Lord Adil, you're back!"
The moment they saw Adil, Andra and the others instantly breathed a sigh of relief. Their originally uneasy hearts were slightly relieved.
"Did those people do anything to you?"
At the side, Curtis looked at Adil nervously, seemingly a little afraid.
After Adil was taken away by Curaldo, many of the representatives sent by the Wizard families were discussing this matter.
The birth of a pure-blooded Moon Elf was bound to shock the entire Elven Race and even the entire Mason District.
This was a terrifying creature that could rival a Rank 4 Magus when it matured. Currently, the most powerful being in the entire Mason District was only a Rank 2 Magus. This also meant that if Adil came of age in the future, the entire Mason District would submit to his power. There would be no room for negotiation.
This was especially so for the Elves. The Moon Elf bloodline was known as the Moon Elf King, and it was a true royal bloodline.
A pure-blooded Moon Elf bloodline was undoubtedly a treasure. If it could be extracted and used in experiments, its value would be unimaginable.
Standing among a group of elven nobles and listening to them discuss this matter, Curtis' excitement gradually faded, and he began to feel uneasy. Only when he saw Adil walk out safely did he calm down.
"I'm fine."
Looking at his mother's worried expression, Adil only calmly shook his head and said, "Let's go."
"Go?" Andra paused, "Back to Morning Wind City?"
"No, let's just stay here."
Adil shook his head, "There are still many things to do in the following period of time."
He turned to look in a certain direction and spoke calmly.
… …
A few days later, with the help of the Elven Court, a piece of news spread through the entire Silver Fog Forest.
During the Bloodline Trial, a pure-blooded Moon Elf called Adil had appeared. Under the witness of countless nobles, he had personally pulled out the Moon King's Sword.
Once this news spread, it instantly caused a huge commotion.
The various elven nobles were all restless. When they received this news, they were greatly shaken.
However, before they could come up with a response, another piece of news came from the Elven Court's powerful communication spell formation.
Chief Elven Priest Curaldo, who had not appeared for many years, had once again appeared. Not only did he suppress an assassination attempt by an underground creature during the Bloodline Trial, but he also took in a pure-blooded Moon Elf as a student and invited the various nobles to participate.
As such, no matter what thoughts they had, the various elven nobles all set off, sending people towards the Elf King's City.
… …
A grand banquet was being held in front of the bustling palace in the city.
At the banquet, elves dressed in luxurious clothing walked around, occasionally laughing.
The hall was lavishly decorated, and the surroundings were filled with an enchanting fragrance. There were also pieces of beautiful gemstones decorating the surroundings.
On the spacious stage in the middle of the hall, elven dancers of different styles that the Elven Court had nurtured were now dancing. Their beautiful dance caused many people around them to be intoxicated.
The hall in front of them was very big, and the seats were also very good. There were at least a few hundred people sitting around it, and every one of them was a noble with an extraordinary background, representing an elven family with a long history.
Outside the hall, there were even more nobles sitting outside. Although there were also delicacies and dancers, they could not help but feel envious when they saw the nobles sitting in the hall.
In this situation, those who could sit in the hall all had very powerful backgrounds. Their families were either administrators or official Sorcerers.
Although the people sitting outside the hall were also nobles, they were basically some small nobles. Many of them had not even received an invitation and had come on their own accord.
Adelo and the others were currently sitting outside.
Although the Orris Family was considered a mid-tier noble family, they were not qualified for this situation. Hence, in the entire family, only Curtis and Ladina had entered because of their relationship with Adil. As for Andra, Lilith, and the others, they could only sit outside.
However, even though they were outside the hall, they were not idling around. They were now using Adil's name to build relationships with others, and they received many people's flattery.
"They're here! They're here! "Numerous voices sounded around them.
Strange sounds came from afar, and a low and pleasant music traveled from afar.
Under everyone's gazes, several elven dancers walked forward, followed by a few elven singers carrying organs.
They sang a gentle and moving song in the elven language, and their voices spread to the surroundings with the help of magic. Everyone could hear them.
With such a background, a group of people clustered around a few figures as they walked forward.
Adil wore a light white robe, and his light silver hair was carefully combed. His handsome and exquisite face looked very calm, and his light silver eyes shone with a bright light.
On his body, the majesty of the ancient moon elf bloodline leaked out a little, instantly making the atmosphere more oppressive and giving him a dignified aura.
Beside Adil, a young elf girl stood side by side with him. She was dressed in a solemn, moon-colored priest robe. Her beautiful face exuded a strong heroic spirit, and there was a hint of determination and courage between her brows.
"Is that Princess Edith?"
At the side, a noble recognized the identity of the young lady beside Adil, and was instantly curious. "Why is she here?"
"Can't you tell?"
At the side, another noble laughed coldly. "Who wouldn't be tempted by the ancient moon elf bloodline?"
"Princess Edith is the daughter of King Kasi, but she doesn't seem to be married yet."
Waves of muffled discussions could be heard around them. Although the voices were very low, Adil could still hear them clearly.
He looked at Edith out of the corner of his eyes and saw that her face was somewhat red. It seemed that she had also heard the discussions around her.
Shaking his head, Adil did not care about these details and followed the Dancer in front of him.
Soon, he reached the hall, and he saw two figures sitting in front of him.
It was King Kasi, the current ruler of the Elven Court, and High Priest Curaldo.
At this moment, they were sitting in the upper seats and looking at Adil and Edith, who seemed to be a perfect match for each other, they could not help but look at each other and then nod at each other.
The music continued to play, but by this time, it had already changed its tone.
The surrounding nobles stopped what they were doing and turned their attention to Adil and his companion who were at the very front. For a time, apart from the peaceful music, there were no other sounds.
"Congratulations, Adil."
Looking at Adil, Curaldo smiled and picked up an item.
It was a jade-green ring with a complicated imprint carved on it. It looked very beautiful and was filled with obscure force field undulations.
[Spiritual force field detected …] the A.I. Chip's robotic voice sounded in Leylin's mind.
In front of him, Adil respectfully received the ring and then put it on his finger.
In the distance, the other nobles and Magi looked at this scene with complicated expressions. They looked at Adil with an indescribable meaning.
That jade-green ring was not an ordinary ring, but a famous defensive magic tool in the Silvermist Forest. It was also an item passed down by generations of High Priests.
For Curaldo to give this ring to Adil meant that he had confirmed Adil's position as the next successor.
