After Garth's body was carried away, Solomon looked at the Elf Queen again.
“You really surprised me, madam, by doing what many people couldn’t do, killing the former emperor of the empire, completing your revenge, and doing us a favor.
"Although we are confident of conquering this continent no matter who the opponent is, young lions are always easier to deal with than older lions."
"I didn't kill my husband for revenge," Heloise said, "just so that my tribe could continue."
"I can understand your choice," Solomon nodded slightly, "Everything I did was for my tribe. Now that you are free, you can return to your hometown. Your father misses you very much."
"Really?" The Elf Queen looked to the south, "But I have been away from that forest for so long that I can't even remember what my father looks like."
She withdrew her gaze and looked at Solomon again, "Are you still in need of a woman?"
"You are as beautiful as the rumors, no, even more beautiful than the rumors, but I dare not let a man who can kill his husband sleep on my pillow."
"I dare!"
A voice came from above Solomon's head, and then a tall man with a pair of yellow-brown wings and white feathers on his back fell from the sky.
He looked at Heloise unscrupulously with his chestnut brown eyes, "Are you the most beautiful woman on this continent?"
"Who are you?"
"Shaja from the Golden Eagle Tribe." The visitor said, "My father is the leader of all the Wing Tribe people, so according to your side, I am also a prince, which is a perfect match for you."
"I'm the queen. According to what we say here, I should be your mother." Heloise said, "Besides, I have no interest in boys who haven't grown up yet."
"I'm not a boy." A look of embarrassment flashed in Sharjah's eyes, "I have killed many Imperial people. You'd better pay attention to your wording. Even your father wouldn't dare to speak to me like this."
Solomon smoothed things over, "Okay, there's no need to argue about this kind of thing," and then he said to the Elf Queen, "You can leave, madam."
"I also have a few maids and servants..."
"You can take them all with you when you leave." Solomon said, "I have told my people that I will let you and your people go."
Heloise nodded, turned around and walked silently into the mist.
Just as silently as she came.
Shaja stared at the Elf Queen's leaving figure, not knowing what he was thinking. It wasn't until Solomon spoke that his attention was called back.
"Why did you come to me?"
"Oh. We have already captured the royal capital. I would like to ask you about your next plan. Is it time to attack the Western Region?" Sharja Dalala said.
"No, our next target is White River City. We will set off tonight. We can launch the attack in the early morning. We will take the White Queen and the Storm Lord with us, leaving the Red Death to frighten the nobles in the city.
"As long as we defeat the 100,000 imperial troops there, no one can stop us from ruling this continent."
"Then we will attack the Western Region?" Sharjah continued to ask.
"We have to consolidate the results first." Solomon shook his head and said, "Lionheart Castle is different from Crab Corner. It is of great significance to the Red Lion Empire. Since we have captured it, we must not let the empire people take it back again, otherwise It will arouse their will to resist.
"This time we have to act steadily. We must conquer the nearby lords first, and then drive those people to conquer the city for us. Every child of the Sky Mother is very precious, and unnecessary consumption should be avoided as much as possible."
"But the female lord named Ilea has killed three Wing tribesmen, including Moen, and also killed a dragon. Don't you plan to avenge them, Solomon?"
Sharjah called him by his first name without much respect for Solomon in his tone.
Solomon was not angry, and just said calmly, "Your father appointed me as the commander of the expeditionary force. I need to be responsible for the war first, not personal grudges."
"You have only been here a few days, and you have already contracted the bad habits of those terrestrial species." Sharjah sneered, "You don't even dare to accept the challenge of that stupid emperor. I can no longer see the white hair in you. The demeanor of the tribe’s number one warrior.”
"Whatever you say," Solomon said, "I will not send troops to attack the Western Region for the time being. The female lord named Ilea poses no greater threat to us than the Monteverde family in the north.
"They still have genuine royal blood in their hands. Once Gars dies, his brother Allister's name will become more popular among the imperial nobles."
"Moen, Gabriel, Jacobi, and we will avenge the loss of a dragon, but not now. We will attack White River City tomorrow. I want you to be the vanguard."
Although Sharjah was a little reluctant, Solomon was the coach and he couldn't openly disobey the coach's orders. He could only say, "I will."
On the other side, after Heloise returned to her residence, she asked the maid to simply pack away the gold, silver and jewelry.
When the carriage arrived outside her door, the Elf Queen took her maid into the carriage.
There were actually two other passengers inside.
But Heloise didn't seem surprised at all. She sat down opposite them as if she hadn't seen the two people inside.
One of the passengers, who was only eight or nine years old, was surprised to see her and said, "Queen Heloise, you're okay too, that's great."
The other lady, who looked like her mother, looked at Heloise with a somewhat wary look.
Heloise didn't take it seriously and took out a pair of pearl earrings from her arms and handed them to the girl.
The latter really wanted the pair of pearl earrings, but she glanced at her mother first, and she didn't take them until her mother nodded.
The carriage drove toward the outside of the city. The atmosphere inside the carriage was a bit dull.
Neither Heloise nor the lady spoke, and the little girl and the maid did not dare to speak.
The carriage arrived at the city gate unimpeded.
The Wing Clan soldiers responsible for guarding had already received the order and let the carriage pass without checking after seeing Queen Heloise behind the carriage window.
After leaving the city, the little girl couldn't help but want to open the car window and take another look at the city behind her where she had lived for nearly ten years, but she was stopped by the Elf Queen.
"do not look."
"Why?" the little girl asked doubtfully.
Heloise sighed. The lady opposite seemed to have thought of something, and her face turned extremely pale the next moment.
She suddenly rushed towards Heloise like crazy, reaching out and grabbing the Elf Queen's hair, "You killed him, right? You know he already suspected that you killed his father!"
