PFC Chapter 353 Moonlight Meeting 2
Chapter 353 Moonlight Meeting 2
"...Hehe." It was Mistto who spoke first again, with a sarcastic smile on his handsome face.
"There is not a single word of truth from those humans. Aren't they best at inciting people? Seran, I thought you knew this well enough."
"But the person who came was a witch, and as you saw, she really brought a royal elf." Seran glanced at Mistto's silver hair.
Mistto is the representative of the royal elves in the council. Silver hair is a characteristic of royal elves and is extremely rare among elves. Legend has it that this is a color that the goddess specially chose when she created them.
Upon hearing this, Mistto twisted his bamboo-like fingers, and the mocking smile on his face faded a little.
"and."
Seran continued to tell everyone more surprising information -
"The child claimed his last name was Bishop."
This news really caused a slight gasp at the scene.
The druid named Links sat back. He was the oldest councilor present, and in the silence of everyone, he was the first to come to his senses.
"I have indeed heard some rumors from elders, as well as some ballads..." Links began slowly, "Back then, the Elf King Elrohir and the Human King were not only comrades-in-arms who fought side by side, but also lovers—"
"How is that possible?" Mistto sneered, "Don't forget where humans' accusations and hostility towards us originally came from!"
"Then where do you think his royal bloodline comes from? Is it the result of your fooling around?" Aphra put her feet on the stone chair and looked at Mistto opposite her with an attitude of watching the fun.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Mistto actually showed a rare shy look, "How could I go out and fool around!"
"I think what Links said makes sense." The female elf in the moon-white robe said after pondering.
"Mia, how come even you--?" Mistto looked at her in shock.
"There are many anecdotes about those heroes that have been passed down, including the twin Night Demons who are known as the gods of mischief, Lord White Dragon who likes to read suspense detective novels, the rough Beast King who loves music, and the various gambling games between the generous and brave Human King and the Elf King. Haven't you noticed that there are many stories about the two of them together? This shows that the two of them are always together, and there is a high possibility that they are lovers, right?" Mia turned around and discussed with Links.
"That's, that's--" Mistto racked his brains to refute, "That's because Zora and the Mother Goddess are comrades-in-arms. Even her last name, Bishop, was given by the Mother Goddess. Naturally, she is closer to the elves!"
"It's indeed very close. The child was born secretly, but we had no idea that His Majesty Elrohir had an offspring living outside." Links still insisted on his point of view and began to sigh.
"What a joke!" Mistto stood up. "How did those humans accuse the elves? Although the people at that time have passed away, the records are still there! They insisted that it was His Majesty Elrohir who murdered Zora Bishop!"
Everyone fell silent. No one knew the truth, because when the news came from the Gaia Empire that humans had begun to capture elves, there was also news that His Majesty Elrohir had died in the city of Goletia.
As for Goladia——
When the Forest of Elves wanted to seek the truth, the daughter of the sea god chose to stand on the same side as humans.
Thinking of this, a green-haired elf snorted coldly, "Even if there are void beasts, there is the great Goletia Academy and the noble Bishop family. What is there to worry about?"
"If we are so arrogant about unknown dangers, what's the difference between us and humans?" Seran said calmly.
"In the holy war, the Mother Goddess led all races to defeat the Void Will and crushed it completely. This is a well-known fact. How is it possible that Void Beasts still exist? Are you questioning the Mother Goddess's achievements?" The elf said in a firm tone.
"Of course I know who brought us the peaceful life we have today." Seran quickly replied, "But if you have taken history classes carefully, you should know that the last battlefield of the Holy War was the eastern coast, and the one who was responsible for cleaning up the battlefield was the Sea God."
So when the witch named Cynthia said that the void beasts had reappeared from the east coast of Ozler, she couldn't help but take it seriously.
If the Void Beast really appeared in Ozler, then something must have gone wrong with the mermaids in the sea, or even the sea god.
Mistto listened to their argument, and rarely said a word - as a royal elf, he knew more secrets than others, which were passed down by his ancestors and some old priests, and were not recorded in books...
"So what do you want to do, Seran?" Aphra didn't know what Mistto was thinking, so she asked her colleague, "Do you want to send someone to Ozler to investigate?"
"I think this is the safest approach." Seran nodded.
"If the rumors are true, we have to make some preparations. The Elf Forest has been in decline for a long time after the Holy War, and it was not until our generation that it finally recovered. Is it going to happen again?" Seran believes that a sense of crisis is a must for a qualified manager.
"I have reported it, right? In recent years, those humans have been sneaking around outside the Pathless Forest and frequently trying to break in. Maybe this rumor is their conspiracy. They want us to leave the forest."
Aphra has dealt with countless humans wearing strange white armor and robes in the past few years. She has the most dislike for those cunning and stubborn creatures. Every time they attack, they destroy many trees, which makes everyone feel distressed.
"——Also, the guys who were best at hiding their whereabouts and gathering intelligence are no longer here." Aphra leaned back, looked at the moon in the pool and said with a smile.
Although the forest rangers are also good at hiding in the forest, the old elves always say that there was once an extremely elite force among the elves. They are the shadow of the world tree and the sharpest weapon of the Mother Goddess. Although the elves are all the people of the Mother Goddess, they are the only warriors who truly follow the gods and are responsible for protecting the safety of the Mother Goddess.
——Night elves.
Apart from the royal elves, they were once the most revered group of elves.
But this line of night elves, respected by everyone and the strongest representative of combat power among the elves, eventually defected en masse and dedicated their souls to the goddess of night in exchange for a longer life.
Aphra's eyes flashed with disdain.
"I will take the risks of the trap into consideration and will not let anyone die easily. Please rest assured, Aphra." Seran said to the leader of the rangers.
"——Also, I want to send a survey team out, not only to investigate whether there are Void Beasts, but more importantly for Lady Fustwin."
