PS: Sorry for being late. I was delayed by something today. Please forgive me.
At night, the Eternal Queen and the others stayed in the large noble manor outside the city, Qingwadai, which Laing had arranged for them.
The person in charge of leading them was the High Elf Talleyrand. The proud Dragon King, Torendier, looked at him as if he was looking at a low-level creature. The High Elves also wondered why a cripple was assigned to lead the way.
Didn't your Knight Kingdom just confer the title of Ten Marshals? Send one or two over. It's not safe in the Old World at night. They can also be the guards of the little queen.
Isn't it an honor for you monkeys to be the guards of the noblest Eternal Queen in the world?
Well, forget about the demigod. He's a little dangerous and is not good for the little queen's safety.
What are you trying to do by calling this limping, ugly, weak, country bumpkin who doesn't know magic and is from the countryside of Charis to receive us?
Thus, apart from White Tower's Great Mage Alamir, none of the followers treated Talleyrand kindly. They even spoke to him with disdain in their bones.
Talleyrand could feel a deep stab of pain, but the High Elf cripple, the Foreign Affairs Minister of the Sun King, knew very well.
This was the High Elf!
Instead, it was the High Elf Ambassador of the Old World, Taimag, who seized the opportunity to remind the little queen. "Your Highness, this crippled country bumpkin is said to be the Sun King's trusted jester. He's in charge of many things and has a channel to talk to His Majesty Laing alone. If we want to negotiate with the dwarves of the Eight Peaks to get back some of the divine artifacts, he'll be of use."
Alissanda nodded. The little queen said to Talleyrand, "The furnishings here are really nice. Mr. Talleyrand, you must have put a lot of thought into it, right?"
“？” Talleyrand turned his head abruptly. There was even a moment of shock on his face. The cripple did not expect the little queen to speak to him so kindly.
If this was in Ossouin, it would be the highest honor!
However, Talleyrand was no longer a fledgling. Ever since the cunning Talleyrand had followed Laing, he had seen plenty of demigods, let alone the big shots of the major factions. He had even spoken a few words to Laing's legendary true god father, who was as brilliant and powerful as the sun. It was not that easy for the little queen to move Cripple's heart.
He smiled and replied in the Elvish language with Charles's country bumpkin accent, "This is not my arrangement. It is the arrangement of that lord."
"That lord? Mr. Talleyrand, please don't play riddles with me. I know almost nothing about this place. "The little queen's teeth moved slightly. Her voice was as soothing as the raindrops on Resurrection Island.
Talleyrand smiled humbly. "Please forgive me, Your Highness. I can't say. Everything has been prepared. If you need any help, you can ring the bell or ask the servants for help."
"It has been hard on you, Mr. Talleyrand, to leave your distant hometown and come to the Old World to serve the humans." Alissanda noticed that a few people around her had already shown angry expressions, as if they were angry that someone dared to refuse the little queen's inquiry. The little queen continued, "In the former colony, do you sometimes feel lonely?"
"It's alright." Talleyrand was a little sad to be asked this. He controlled his expression and shook his head. "This is my choice. Loneliness is inevitable, but I can fulfill my dreams here and use my talents. I am loyal to His Majesty Laing, and he values me. I know what you mean."
"In Ossouin, Assur can treat me well. But in the Old World, the humans can let me use all my talents. To me, the latter is more important than the former."
The little queen hesitated, but finally nodded slightly. "I hope you have made the right choice, Mr. Talleyrand."
"Thank you very much!"
Talleyrand said his goodbyes, and the high elves began to arrange the accommodation.
Humans had always envied the freedom and democracy of the high elves, especially their luxurious living environment, superior welfare system, and short working hours. However, very few people understood that the high elves were a race that played with the hierarchy and the chains of disdain to a higher standard than humans. Even the little queen's side was the same. Their accommodation arrangements were completely based on their status and status.
It had to be said that Laing's arrangement for the little queen and her party was very good. Although it was not particularly luxurious, it had all the necessary items. The space was very large, and the magic chandelier emitted a light yellow light. The high-end leather sofa was imported from the wood elves. The floor was covered with Tyrell carpet, and there was a complete shower system, a hot spring system, a marble floor, and a glass ceiling. The unique bar was filled with all kinds of fine wine from all over the world. The restaurant served all kinds of cuisines, including the most distant Aurora cuisine.
The high elves habitually found a few problems, and after calling the servants over, they sat in the hall on the second floor of the manor and began to discuss matters.
"That Talleyrand is a dog!" The first to speak was the son of the Dragon King, Torrendier. He said impatiently, "I really don't understand. Even if he is a country bumpkin, isn't he a hundred times better than being a servant for the monkeys? So many manors in the countryside are abandoned! He can choose any one of them, and he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. Why would he stay in the monkey mountain? He is a traitor. He has forgotten his own race and his own bloodline! Banana man! "
"Torrendier! Don't be so absolute! " The White Tower Archmage, Alamir, immediately shook his head. "We respect freedom. This is his choice. Don't forget, it was Laing Macado who sent you the Silver Dragon Horn of Yserama!"
"Ha! It's none of his business! " The Dragon Prince stood up as if he had been humiliated. "If we knew where the Dragon Horn was, would we have let this monkey have it? We didn't blame these monkeys for not sending the Dragon Horn to us immediately. They will be grateful to us for the rest of their short lives! "
"There is no need to be angry. The glory of Kaldor will always be decided by you." Little Queen Alissanda tidied up her skirt a little. Under the long skirt, her legs were wrapped in lace and speckled translucent white silk pantyhose. Her voice was soft but firm. "We have a few key problems to solve now. Now is not the time to be impulsive."
"Yes." The Eternal Queen was a cultural and spiritual symbol for the high elves. The proud Kaldor dragons could ignore the Phoenix King, Finnuba, or the War Lord, Tyrion, but they rarely disobeyed the orders of the Eternal Queen, especially when the Dragon Prince was a little stubborn.
Everyone quieted down. The little queen thought for a few seconds and said, "Something is not right."
"The situation in this territory is not right," Alissanda said calmly. "Do you think it's normal for a demigod to sell beef offal on the street?"
No one could answer this question. Only the Eternal Queen's maid, Josparis Dalterian, said, "According to the information, the demigod named Angeron seems to be the brother of King Laing and the Purple Phoenix of the New World. I thought he would be more … polite and gentlemanly, but now it seems that Forgen and Laing are undoubtedly brothers. This demigod named Angeron should be their half-brother."
"No wonder His Excellency Tegris has always emphasized that we should build a good relationship with the Sun King. Just his Knight of the Holy Grail, the Old Guard, and his two demigod brothers are very valuable." Alissanda nodded calmly. The little queen thought for a moment and sighed. "But I still don't like them very much. King Ryan has proven to be an excellent ruler, but he's too harsh on his people. Although he's rich and prosperous, his laws are harsh and he lacks tolerance. Although there are welfare guarantees, his regulations are too strict and he lacks freedom. The people need freedom and democracy. What I see is a country with a dictatorship that imposes the so-called spirit of chivalry and the spirit of the Holy Grail on everyone."
"This is human. They are as numerous as ants, but also as short as ants. They lack the time and space to think independently." The Dragon Prince continued to express his disdain. "This Laing and the two armies under his command are already considered to be able to fight. Also, the Countess of the Empire and the Armoured Nur are also so-so. Other than a few knights of the Empire, there is nothing much to get in touch with other humans."
"His Majesty Finnuba also used to look down on humans like you, until he realized that the fishing village he originally imagined was a giant castle that rose from the ground. The wilderness he originally imagined was hundreds of villages scattered like stars in the sky. The human army that he thought would be vulnerable had guarded the old world for three thousand years." The archmage of the White Tower said seriously, "The most conservative estimate of the number of humans in the world is more than a hundred times that of ours. Did you see the Knight of the Holy Grail and the Old Guard that greeted us today? Do you think we can defeat them with a single wave of attack? Swear in the name of Kaldor? "
"Tsk." The Dragon Prince shrugged and did not speak.
"We must try to become allies with these armies. And that demigod, he is very strong." Alissanda's clear face showed a little helplessness. "As for Azeroth, Queen Alaier and King Laing only have polite exchanges with us. They not only refuse to provide us with help, but also refuse to form an alliance. They also refuse to trade with us or return to the system of the Ocean Empire. The ancient Ents … Forget it."
Everyone nodded. Among the three ancient Ents, Dursu had gone mad (although not completely mad, his temperament had changed drastically), Adanhu had died (sacrificing himself to cure and save the mad Alaier), and Kodile had escaped (refusing the elves to stay in the beginning and was later corrupted by Chaos). There was basically nothing to communicate with the Ents.
Queen Alaier of the Wood Elves personally came out of the forest to meet with Alissanda after learning of the little queen's arrival. As the incarnation of Yisha, Alaier's attitude towards Alissanda was very friendly. Not only did she show her rare loving side to Alissanda, she also asked her everything about Ossouin and gave the little queen a white-faced owl as a sign of friendship.
The owl's big brown eyes, grey and white feathers and honest expression made Alissanda unable to put it down.
It was so cute.
However, in many things, especially in diplomacy, the Wood Elves' solitary nature was brought to the extreme in Alaier's hands. Queen Alaier almost subconsciously rejected all diplomatic requests made by Alissanda, even refusing to send ambassadors to each other. Alaier also emphasized that the Wood Elves only had ambassadors in Brittany, and if there was a need, Queen Alaier of the Eternity would directly pray to Yisha.
Other than meeting the Eternal Queen, Aleil had another reason for coming out of the forest, which was to meet with the King of Eight Peaks, Belegar. The Wood Elves needed more exquisite Dwarven rune equipment, and a single Starlight Furnace was not enough to satisfy the needs of the entire Elven Empire.
There was no deep hatred between the wood elves and the dwarves. Previously, Aralos had cooperated with the King of Eight Peaks, Belegar, and the King of Butchers, Agrim, Iron Fist, during the Eight Peaks Mountain Expedition and the Battle of Becrafin. The relationship between the two sides had eased somewhat, and with Leon acting as the intermediary, they decided to sit down and negotiate. In the end, they negotiated a large order.
"It's a good thing that Alalos can cooperate with King Belegar and King Belegar of the Eight Peaks. King Belegar and King Belegar can be said to have the greatest influence among the Dwarven Kings other than the Supreme King." Archmage Alamir said, "How can we make use of these things?"
"The important thing is King Laing. If he's willing to endorse us and use his influence, our negotiations with the Supreme King will be much more convenient." Alissanda calmly analyzed, "But I'm more interested in the five 'Sons of Brittany' that appeared at the banquet today. They have a completely pure purifying energy in their bodies, even purer and more powerful than the purifying power that Yisha gave my mother. I'm almost certain that it's definitely not the work of the Moon Goddess, or the Lady of the Lake, Lilith. She can't do that. Instead, from the feeling, it's closer to the power of King Laing and his two sons."
"Your Highness, how do you plan to understand the secrets of the Brittany's Sons?" The maid of the Queen of Eternity, Joshparis Daltrian, took the initiative to ask.
"Perhaps, this matter still falls on the two sons of King Laing. I'll try tomorrow and see if they're willing to take me to the Old Guard camp and the depths of the Chalon Forest and Lily Island to take a look." Alissanda nodded slightly.
"Let's do that then."
… I'm the section divider for my Kang-Kang …
"The two of you, why do you look like you can't even walk after looking at the little queen?"
On the other side, in a private reception room on the third floor of Duke Jean's castle.
Laing was scolding his sons. He grabbed his two sons and spanked them one after another. He scolded Frey Derick and Devonshire. The Sun King was speechless. "The little queen is the daughter of the Eternal Queen, Alariel. She's destined to marry the next Phoenix King, and it's basically impossible for her to come back to the old world!"
"Wu wu wu!" Frey Derick covered his red buttocks. His eldest son looked at his mother, who was laughing so hard in the distance and leaning on Aunt Suria's shoulder. His eldest son was not convinced. "But Dad, that little queen is really beautiful and cute. She is also very elegant and powerful. As your son, shouldn't he pursue the girl he likes?"
"Hahahaha!" Emilia gloated as she watched Frey Derick being taught a lesson by Laing. Even the Duchess of the Empire fell on Suria. She could not help but feel warm in her heart.
"That's right. Alariel is so cute. Frey likes her, and so do I. Dad, don't you think she's just like Mom? Elegant, noble, and charming?" Devonshire was also spanked. His youngest son was still insisting. "I also want to be like you, Dad. I want to find a gentle, intelligent, and elegant beauty like Mom to be my wife!"
Sulia's eyes couldn't help but light up. This son of hers really knew how to talk. Seeing this, the Knight Queen immediately spoke up, "Leon, it's human nature to pursue beautiful things when they see them. It's a yearning for beauty. Don't be so strict."
"What's going on? Why are you two so interested in pointy ears?" Ryan's face was full of displeasure. The Knight King wondered where his two sons had learned this from. If I find out, I'll definitely teach the person who started it a lesson.
"Dad!" Frey Derick said, "You said that the little queen's blood is noble, but I think my blood is not bad either. I'm the son of Dad and Mom. My Godfather is Emperor Karl-franz. My magic mentor is Uncle Gelt. My engineering mentor is the chief engineer of Maybach. My military instructor is Grand Marshal Urlstein. I've always been excellent in all subjects since I was young. Am I not good enough for this little queen?"
"That's right, that's right!" Devonshire also clamored. "My Dad and Mom Lilith are the best Dad and Mom in the world! Frey is right. The little queen is so cute. Why can't we pursue her? "
"Also, Dad, don't you have Auntie Olica too?" After saying that, Devonshire muttered in a low voice, "You have so many beauties, but you have to care about me and Frey!"
Rebellion, rebellion! His two sons were going to betray their master!
And judging from their behavior, they obviously had their eyes set on the little queen.
"Good! Go, son, go after her. Your Mom Lilith supports you! " The fairy in the lake was still causing trouble. The goddess waved her little fist at Devonshire, her green eyes darting around. Apparently, she had a new idea. "If you see someone you like, go after her. It doesn't matter if she has pointy ears or not. True love knows no race!"
You're still causing trouble here! Laing's face was even darker.
In fact, it was not difficult for Laing to understand. His two sons were born with noble blood, and their mother was one of the top beauties among humans. Naturally, they would not be interested in most noble daughters. When they saw a beauty like the little queen, who was strong, polite, elegant, and beautiful, of course, they would have many ideas.
Ahhh! What a headache!
Of all the girls to like, why would they like the little queen with pointy ears?!
I had to find out where my two brats learned to be interested in pointy ears.
