Following the sound coming from outside the palace door, the nobles' eyes nervously and curiously turned to the source of the sound.
The moment they saw the two women at the door, the heads of many nobles buzzed and fell into a blank.
If they read it correctly,
That beautiful woman is none other than Victor's sister, Leah Cravenna.
And the elegant and noble elf accompanying her was undoubtedly Kokot Yad.
This scene made the nobles feel familiar, as if they had witnessed it at some point.
They remembered that Leah had visited the palace before with that same elf.
The shape of the clouds under the elf was even the same as this time.
Now, they are here again.
All the nobles present were no strangers to Liya.
If we say that before, Liya was just a businessman in the Cravenna family, and she had absolutely no contact with ministers like them who were involved in imperial politics.
They didn't even bother to look at Leah.
But now it's completely different. The nobles present even want to curry favor with Liya and get close to her.
The reason behind this is simple. The influence of the Cravenna family has now reached an impressive level.
Victor's power and his almost terrifying influence were the tacit consensus of all the nobles present.
That was not a master they could afford to offend.
And Liya is also Victor's sister.
Although these nobles all knew that the Cravena family ostensibly had Victor as their head,
But in fact, all the family affairs, large and small, are handled by Liya herself.
Victor is just a hands-off shopkeeper who doesn't care about the affairs of the territory at all.
Therefore, under such conditions, Liya's status is naturally more noble.
At least among the many nobles present, none of them could offend her.
But today Liya suddenly visited the palace, why?
And she came with that elf.
The ministers are already very familiar with who this elf is.
Former member of the Council of Mages.
It is said that she is also the queen of the elves.
The race of elves is full of mystery to humans, and as the queen of elves, Kokot's status is undoubtedly more noble.
At this moment, the emperor's previous words came to the minds of the nobles
"Don't stand at the door and let outsiders see it. It will have a bad influence."
Thinking of these words, the nobles all had their heads raised and couldn't help but become suspicious.
Your Majesty is probably talking about the elf queen coming to visit.
Oh, it seems like there's really nothing wrong with that. They really need to give in.
Hearing Kokot's greeting, Oberly smiled and nodded slightly to Kokot, and said:
"haven't seen you for a long time."
"But we just met once not too long ago."
Kokot sat cross-legged on the clouds, listened to Oberly's words, stretched out his hand and scratched his head:
"Ah, is that so?"
"Sorry, I've been sleeping a lot lately."
Oberly wanted to continue to straighten his body, but after hearing this, his shoulders drooped easily, and a tolerant smile appeared on his face:
"It seems that you are in good spirits recently."
In his impression, Kokot always liked to curl up on her marshmallow-like cloud and enjoy long dreams.
He remembered the last time Kokot visited, she had entered the palace almost sleepily.
After rubbing his eyes, he saw him as the emperor.
At that time, Kokot was lazy and sleepy, as if he might fall into sleep again at any time.
But now, she seemed to be a different person, full of energy, almost too lively.
At least it's obviously different from before.
When Kokot heard this, a naughty smile appeared on his face:
"Hehe, I think so too."
Then, her eyes turned to Oberly, with a trace of worry in her eyes:
"Well...but in your state..."
As a natural elf, Kokot has the ability to discern the essence of life.
She could feel that the Aubrey in front of her was bright and beautiful on the outside, but the flame of inner life was weak and fragile.
Like a candle that is about to burn out, it may be extinguished at any time.
Aubrey's condition is getting worse and worse.
Much worse than the last time we met.
But she didn't say it clearly.
Because for human beings whose lives are short, life span is an extremely sensitive topic.
Many humans even have unspeakable taboos about it.
She closed her eyes, rested her chin on one hand, said nothing, and pondered.
Under the pleasant conversation between the Elf Queen and Emperor Aubrey, the nobles fell silent one by one.
No one dared to interrupt the conversation between these two high-ranking leaders.
However, today was clearly supposed to be their court meeting to persuade His Majesty Aubrey.
Why did it turn into a meeting of old friends instead?
At this time, Marquis Zina also lowered his head, nervous sweat broke out on his forehead.
He finally understood why Lipoot had stopped him before. It turned out to be because a distinguished guest was about to arrive.
And this guest is also a noble elf.
Elves represent nature.
As human beings, whether they are nobles or commoners, they have been taught since childhood that they need to always maintain awe of nature.
Therefore, the discussion on the succession to the throne obviously has to wait until the Elf Queen leaves before continuing.
Obviously, Lipoot had already realized this, so he did not mention it today.
At this time, Kokot also opened his eyes again and said softly:
"In our Elf Forest, there is a very magical Dettol."
"For humans, it can even play a role in recuperating the body and extending life span."
The nobles were all stunned when they heard what Kokot said.
Even Aubrey showed strong interest, curiosity revealed in his eyebrows:
"Oh? Is this the treasure of your elves?"
"You can calculate it that way."
Kokot sat on the clouds and thought of Liya's previous instructions to her:
Although she didn’t know why Liya asked her to say this, she still spread her hands and said helplessly:
"But this thing is relatively precious, and it can only produce about two drops a year."
In fact, the elves collect more than two drops every day.
But when she finished speaking these words, the eyes of countless nobles were focused on her like hungry wolves.
Although Kokot didn't look directly at her, those greedy eyes still made her feel unhappy and uncomfortable.
She felt like she didn't like it very much.
Kokot scratched his head in discomfort.
However, now it should be the situation that Liya said before.
She coughed slightly, glanced at Liya, and said as if to remind:
"Leah."
After hearing Kokot's words, Liya immediately raised the crystal clear communication crystal in her hand and put it to her mouth:
"You can come here."
What's the meaning?
At this moment, the nobles looked at each other in confusion.
Suddenly, the rich natural magic flooded the entire palace like an ocean.
Colorful flowers and plants grew out of thin air from the floor of the palace, and lush green grass also grew neatly, wrapping the entire palace.
A natural and fresh breath replaced the dullness in the palace.
The warm air also surged, dispersing the cold palace in autumn and winter.
And among the green grass and flowers, huge buds gradually unfolded.
After that, Venia walked out from among the flowers and plants, holding a wooden stick in her hand.
Every time you take a step, an elf will bloom from the surrounding buds and stand up from it.
Finally, the elves appeared in front of everyone one after another.
In their hands they held a leaf, which contained a few clear drops of dew and shone with the morning light.
The lingering warmth in the room temporarily lulled the nobles into deep contemplation, filling their lungs with warm air.
The lungs, which are accustomed to dryness and silence in winter, seem to be awakened by this warmth.
But they were so dull that they ignored the fragrance of the air and focused entirely on the guests who appeared in the palace.
This...so many elves! ?
They had never seen so many elves in their lives.
This can't be a dream...
At this time, Liya took a few steps forward.
The surrounding flowers and plants surrounded her, and her eyes followed the clusters of brocades and scanned everyone present.
In the end, her eyes stayed on Lipoot for a while.
Then Liya raised her head gracefully and looked at Emperor Aubrey sitting on the throne:
"His Majesty."
"Allow me to explain it to you."
She stood in front of the elves, surrounded by endless flower beds, and gave a slight salute to Oberly:
"The Forest of Elves, in the name of nature -"
"Eternal friendship with the Empire."
