"Hahaha! I'm finally back!"
Kokot stood proudly and floated out from a huge green door, sitting on a cloud.
She sat on the clouds, raised her head, opened her mouth, and breathed the air, acting very arrogant.
Leon followed closely and walked out behind Kokot.
The green transmission channel disappeared, and Leon looked around, feeling strange.
Turning her head, she looked at Kokot again and couldn't help but ask.
"Did you...make a mistake in your positioning?"
"ah?"
Only then did Kokot react, looking at the weeds around him that were almost up to Leon's knees.
The lush flowers are also extremely tall and full of vitality.
An extremely thick bronze tree stood in the grass, behind Kokot.
She turned around and looked at the giant tree, her face full of confusion and dullness.
"???"
Didn’t they come back from the Forest of Elves?
Why is there such a broken tree in this place?
Leon looked up and down at the tree, then turned back and saw the Cravenna Mansion in the distance.
It was still a familiar look.
"No problem."
"We're back in the right place."
After Leon said that, he put on his hood, pulled up his mask, and covered his face, revealing only a pair of gem-like green eyes.
"Well, I'll excuse you now."
After returning from the Elf Forest, she had a lot to say to Liya.
Leon jumped forward and nimbly rushed towards the mansion.
Kokot looked at her back and opened his mouth. Before he could hold her back, Leon had already left.
"Hey, why are young elves today so impatient?"
The reason why Leon was left in the Elf Forest was to see if the problem of Leon's inability to induce natural energy could be solved.
But it didn't work.
No matter how Leon touches the sacred tree, even if she drinks a few mouthfuls of the holy spring of the moon, she cannot generate natural energy in her body.
As an elf, she seemed to be repelled from the natural energy.
It’s no wonder that the original Yade Sacred Tree didn’t recognize her.
Despite this, Kokot was still trying his best to think of a solution.
While she was sitting on the clouds thinking, a familiar voice came from behind:
"You seem to be in a good mood."
Kokot turned around and saw Victor standing behind him, staring at him.
His eyes were extremely deep, as if he could see through everything about her.
Kokot was not surprised. He just sat cross-legged on the clouds, put his hands on the back of his head, and smiled:
"Oh, I'm lucky, I just accidentally passed a large group of people... Hey, wait, what are you doing, don't, don't touch me..."
Suddenly, Victor stretched out a hand and grabbed Kokot's arm.
At the moment of physical contact, Victor looked closely at the top of her head.
Lv50——
A fifth-level mage.
Victor was not surprised.
For Kokot, becoming a fifth-level mage was no accident.
She was originally one of the top fourth-level mages, and she had already stepped into the fifth-level ranks.
However, if you want to enter the fifth level, you need an opportunity.
After the death of the Yade Sacred Tree, huge natural energy poured out, and part of it rushed towards Kokot like a gift.
And this part is Kokot’s opportunity.
It was originally a final kick, but under the impact of this energy, it broke through the membrane, which is very normal.
After seeing Kokot's level clearly, Victor let go of her hand and said;
"Congratulations."
Hearing these words, Kokot immediately understood.
Victor must have seen her becoming stronger through some means.
She was not surprised by this.
What's more, Kokot originally planned to tell Victor about this, but he didn't expect that Victor would see it first.
Thinking of this, Kokot seemed to be even more proud.
"Hmph, you have to respect me from now on. I am your family... No, I am the only fifth-level mage in the entire empire!"
The fact is exactly as she said. Except for the Mage City that attaches great importance to the cultivation of mages, most countries are not very interested in mages.
Because if you want to train a powerful high-level mage, you have to spend too much money.
And this mage may not necessarily listen to you.
The more powerful the mage is, the more extensive his knowledge will be.
Such people are difficult to control.
Even the entire Kalencia Empire, on the surface, only has a dozen or so fourth-level mages at most.
After all, with so much money, it is better to train the same warriors or knights.
It can also be trained to a high level, and it is also obedient.
Especially the knights.
They abide by chivalry and will rarely refuse orders from their leaders.
Of course, even in the capital of mages, at this stage, Kokot has become the fifth-level mage with the highest Endymion class.
As for why it's not the strongest?
Sorry, man, there's an unreasonable thing like Victor blocking it.
Kokot is still self-aware.
Victor is already so powerful that he cannot be considered a normal mage.
At this time, Victor put his hands in his pockets, looked at her, and nodded as if in agreement.
"You are the only queen of the elves. Without the corresponding strength to support you, it will be difficult to convince the public."
When the elves plan to expand outward, it means that the forest of elves is no longer a purely spiritual area.
But a complete country.
A country that is recognized must have a strong fighting force to protect it.
Although the elves do have natural protection, others dare not act rashly and cause trouble.
But if the population is weak, it will attract ridicule and ridicule.
It will make people feel that they are just a group of weak elves protected by nature.
After all, cursing people will not be sanctioned by the spirits of nature.
Therefore, the fifth-level Kokot is the most suitable.
Kokot floated above the clouds and spoke helplessly, saying to Victor:
"correct."
"Venia wants to establish diplomatic relations with the empire and plans to start with trade."
The elves have indeed been beautiful alone in the Elf Forest for thousands of years, but they have a lot of good things.
It's like fruit wine brewed under the feet of an elf girl.
There is also dew in the Elf Forest that absorbs strong natural energy and can even be used as a blessing agent for casting materials, greatly improving the quality of weapons and armor.
As well as some naturally occurring spiritual fruits, after eating, humans can live longer.
All these things can be used for export trade.
"But you know, this is the first time we have established diplomatic relations in the name of our country."
Kokot spread his hands, closed his eyes, and sighed.
The elves' first export trade naturally had many immature aspects.
Someone needs to personally lead them and let them learn.
Victor, who has a close relationship with the Elf Queen, is their best choice.
"So, if your employees are in trouble, you can't help them?"
As Kokot spoke, he opened one eye and secretly looked at Victor.
I saw him putting his hands in his pockets, as if he had been prepared, and slowly spoke:
"Twenty percent."
"Goose?"
Kokot was immediately stunned, with a confused look on his face.
She didn't seem to understand what Victor was going to do.
Then, Victor’s voice continued:
"I can be responsible for helping you open up the market and ensure you make a lot of money."
"But the premise is that I will take 20% of the profits obtained."
Kokot was confused. She didn't understand this, but she was still thinking about it.
20%, is that a lot?
It doesn't sound like it's a lot.
The more she thought about it, the more confused she became, and then she simply gave up, lay back, and stopped thinking.
Forget it, Victor is the boss anyway, so it’s okay for him to make the decision.
After brainstorming, Kokot nodded.
"Okay! I promise you!"
Victor's face was expressionless.
Fortunately, Kokot is the mascot of the Elf clan, and he has the strength to be the leader.
Otherwise, if she takes power, she can be deceived into selling the entire tribe and counting the money for others.
Victor raised another finger.
"Second, remember what I said before."
Kokot was stunned and listened to Victor’s reminder:
"Don't forget, I need the elf."
"Oh, this."
Kokot suddenly realized that she had not forgotten this incident.
The reason why Victor wanted to run to the Elf Forest himself.
In the final analysis, I just want some elves to be sent to work in the Cravenna Mansion.
It is said to be work, but actually it is pleasure.
Because they only need the natural energy produced by the elves through happiness.
"..."
Wait a moment!
Only then did Kokot react,
At first, Victor just wanted some elves to provide natural energy, yes...
But why did things develop into burning the Yade Sacred Tree?
Just to capture a few elves as employees and liberate the minds of the entire elves?
this……
While Kokot was still confused, Victor put his hands in his pockets and looked at the sacred tree standing there.
The tender green branches swayed in the sun, making them appear slightly transparent.
The thick trunk is wrapped by tiny vines, and green moss quietly absorbs the moist and refreshing air at the base of the trunk.
The huge sacred tree towers into the clouds and into the blue sky.
Little bits of silver stardust were shaken off by the branches and fell towards the ground.
Victor looked at the sacred tree and said calmly:
"I have also prepared the elf's residence."
"That tree?"
Kokot's eyes were also attracted, and he became more and more familiar with the giant tree in front of him.
It seems to be similar to the sacred tree in the Elf Forest, but much smaller.
Moreover, the rich and special natural energy in the sacred tree made her feel particularly comfortable.
This is indeed a place suitable for elves to live.
Even when Kokot was looking at the sacred tree, he almost couldn't help but crawl into the sacred tree and have a good sleep.
She suppressed the urge to sleep and asked:
"how did you do it?"
Victor didn't look at her, as if he only saw this towering sacred tree in his eyes.
At this time, his voice suddenly sounded:
"Don't you feel familiar?"
Kokot shook his head in confusion.
Victor smiled lightly, and gently called the name of the sacred tree under Kokot's gaze.
"Yade."
As if sensing something, the sacred tree's branches slowly hung down carrying silver stardust, as if bowing slightly to Victor.
The huge body completely blocked the sun, and a large shadow enveloped the earth.
Kokot looked at the sacred tree that bowed slightly and opened his mouth:
"ah?"
