The Witcher: Son of the Planes.
Chapter 326 Charlotte's Marriage
After leaving the Queen's palace, the Great Elder Darushu went straight back to his residence. His son Kufrin was still waiting for his father's "good result".
"How about it, father, has Her Majesty the Queen agreed?" Kufrin asked impatiently when he saw his father coming back.
Darushu looked at Kufrin, shook his head, and said, "Not yet, Her Majesty the Queen just said to consider it."
"Ah? Can't even you show up? You don't even give us a little face." Fu Kulin said somewhat dissatisfiedly.
"What's the point of talking about face? In our elf clan, all power belongs to Her Majesty the Queen. No matter who you are, you must obey the Queen's will. I don't want to see you show this expression again, otherwise I will deal with you according to the clan rules."
Darusu loved his son, but he would never allow him to act recklessly. It was fine at home now, but if he continued to behave like this outside, how would the tribesmen view their family? Therefore, necessary warnings were indispensable.
"Oh, I see, father. We are at home. By the way, Charlotte must have deep feelings for me. That human boy has the nerve to come over here. Humph!"
"...How about that, let's change our partner? I feel the women in our tribe are all very good, and Princess Charlotte seems to be more devoted to Colin." Although he didn't want to discourage his son, Darius was an upright man and he had a scale in his heart.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Sister Charlotte is always very nice to me, how could she not like me but like that human boy? Father, you are lying to me, right?"
Darxiu was also a little helpless. When Kufrin was young, he was busy with clan affairs and had to intimidate the human kingdom and the orc empire, so he neglected to manage him. At that time, he thought that Kufrin liked to play with female elves when he had nothing to do. He didn't expect that he would grow up to be like this now.
Before Colin came, he had no other thoughts about Charlotte. He always said she was a little girl and he had no interest in her. How come he fell in love with Charlotte after Charlotte gave birth to Lolita? What was his idea?
"I feel it's true, why don't you give up."
"No, never, father, please help me, I just like sister Charlotte."
"... Well, let's wait for Her Majesty the Queen's decision. I can only say that I will try my best."
……
"Mother, I will never marry Kufrin. Lolita is already so old, isn't it ridiculous to say this now? Even if I don't mention Colin, it won't work. How will you let the tribe see me?"
"Grandma, you rejected the great elder, right? You don't know that Uncle Kufrin is not liked by many people in the clan. How can you push mother into the fire pit?" Lolita didn't want to have another stepfather, so she tried her best to dissuade Margaret.
"Mother, I'm still here. That Kufrin asked his father to propose marriage. He doesn't respect my identity as a wizard. I think it is necessary to have a man-to-man duel with him." Colin also expressed his opinion at the right time. If he can't even protect his own woman, how can he talk about establishing a plane channel?
"...I haven't agreed to him yet. I'm just thinking about it." Margaret said.
"What are you considering? Doesn't your consideration give him hope? You should have firmly rejected him at that time." Charlotte continued.
……
In the following days, the elves seemed calm, but the competition between the elders and the queen began secretly.
Although the Great Elder was loyal to Margaret, Kufrin was his son after all. After his repeated pleas, he changed his attitude and gradually became tough. The Great Elder also had a group of people, and he had always controlled the Council of Elders. Besides, this was not disloyalty to the Queen, but just proposing a marriage for his son. In terms of status, who else could be more noble than his own son?
Margaret had not expected that things would develop to this point. There were many younger generations in the tribe who did not like Kufrin, but she could not ignore the authority of the Great Elder. The Great Elder was much older than herself and had been in charge of the Elder Council for many years. He had made outstanding contributions to Margaret's rule. Now that the Elder Council had objections, Margaret would of course have to "consider" it seriously.
Although Margaret was not very satisfied with Colin, a human wizard, she did not want to wrong her daughter. Although it seemed to be a marriage, the fact that the Great Elder took the opportunity to attack her made Margaret more alert. How many of the elders in the Council of Elders were loyal to her? And how many were loyal to the Great Elder?
The subsequent events caused great heated discussions among the tribesmen. Although Kufrin was a bit effeminate, he was still a tribesman after all, and Colin, the human wizard, was an outsider in every sense, so naturally Kufrin had a high support rate.
Those who support Princess Charlotte think that the other family has been around for nearly a hundred years and their daughter is already this grown up. Why are you, Kufrin, bringing this up now? What were you doing before? Is it interesting?
As for Margaret, as the queen of the elves, she used to encounter more external enemies. But since Listan and his men conquered the human kingdoms and destroyed the Orc Empire, the elves have truly revived in the Agri plane, and conflicts within the tribe are rare.
Through Charlotte's marriage this time, Margaret discovered that there were still many loopholes in her control over the family. Now it's not that she likes Colin so much, but she needs to support Colin. She wants to establish her authority as queen through Colin, an outsider.
The fight now is no longer between Colin and Kufrin, but a power struggle between the Queen and the Great Elder.
Before Colin came, whether he agreed to Kufrin's proposal or not, it would not intensify the conflict, nor would it cause the entire elf clan to be keen on this matter. But now it is different. There must be an explanation between the queen and the great elder.
Of course, although the Great Elder threatened Margaret with the Elders' Council, he was still very respectful to Her Majesty the Queen. In the end, the two of them actually worked out a way to duel.
After being notified, Colin was also a little unhappy. Why should my own wife have to compete with others? Although he was not afraid of Kufrin, this was not justifiable. Unfortunately, the person in charge of Listan had no intersection with Colin. How could he, a level 2 elder, fight against a demigod-level elder?
As for Kufrin, that guy was too confident. He was so confident that he thought that the younger generation of elves had no rivals against him. As for the so-called foreign human wizards, what were they? Even if they helped the elves destroy the Orc Empire and enslaved the human kingdoms nearly a hundred years ago, that was the credit of the elves. Wizards were just icing on the cake.
It can only be said that the protection that the Great Elder Daruxiu gave to Kufrin was too good. The last time he followed the Great Elder to fight against the Orc Empire, he never really fought in the battle. Naturally, he was not aware of the strength of the so-called "helpers" of the elves, Listan and others.
Now, with the help of the power of the plane, the elves, Queen Margaret and the Great Elder have both been promoted from level three to demigods, all as a result of the last victory.
Kufrin could not have thought of these. In his opinion, Colin, the human wizard, since you want to fight, then fight. I will convince you that Sister Charlotte will definitely be mine.
