I transformed into a demon and captured the elf saint

In the court below Queen Ziyue were all the civil and military officials of the Ziyue Principality.

It's not just about being good at either literature or martial arts, but being good at both.

And they are all nobles, the commonest one is the viscount of the duchy. Ordinary knights or human barons are not qualified to enter the hall.

Among them there are even high-ranking marquises with prominent status.

Of course.

There is really no one with a higher status than Marquis.

Because the Purple Moon Principality is just as its name suggests, it is just a principality.

The king of the principality is himself a duke.

Naturally, other ministers under the king could not have such treatment.

So after the Queen, the Marquis is the highest.

Becoming a marquis is the highest honor in the Purple Moon Principality and can bring benefits for several lifetimes.

So.

There are so few marquises in the Purple Moon Principality that they can be counted on one hand.

There are more viscounts and earls in the hall. For example, the city lords scattered throughout the kingdom often have the title of earl.

"Okay, everyone is here, so let's stop talking nonsense and start the meeting..."

At this moment.

Queen Zi Yue on the stage spoke, speaking crisply and clearly, with the demeanor of a very young person.

"One of the main reasons for holding this meeting today is that there have been some riots on the southwest border recently. Many demons are causing trouble there, and the situation is even getting worse..."

"So this time, I hope everyone can think of a way to calm it down."

Queen Zi Yue looked at the civil and military officials below and told the story.

"Your Majesty, demons are everywhere. This is a common occurrence all over the world. Why bother convening a meeting? Just send some troops to clear them out..."

"Just some demons, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning at all..."

Some of the nobles present thought it was going to be a big deal.

When they heard that the devil was causing trouble, they didn't take it seriously.

Because it is nothing new for demons to plague the human kingdom.

It happens almost every day in various border areas.

For example, where there are demons eating people, where there are demons stealing livestock, etc…

If the situation gets any bigger, it will only be one or two villages being massacred by demons, which is not worth mentioning.

So the nobles present thought it was nothing, just a small matter.

Some people even think that Her Majesty the Queen is just young and likes to make a fuss.

Queen Ziyue also knew that she lacked the qualifications and her position on the throne was not stable, making it difficult for her to win the support of the people.

Although he was unhappy, he couldn't say much to these nobles.

"Okay, everyone, be quiet. This time, things are not that simple. It's a bit violent. As for the specific situation, Earl Silver Leaf, you tell everyone."

at this time.

The empress dowager next to her spoke slowly to stop everyone from talking.

The ministers in the hall immediately quieted down and were very obedient. The comparison between the two revealed the gap between the queen and the queen mother.

Of course.

Queen Ziyue wouldn't care either, because she is her mother.

The mother and daughter were on the same side, at least that's what she thought.

at the same time.

A middle-aged man stood up, it was Earl Silver Leaf.

Looking at his appearance again, it turned out to be the mayor of the Demon-Slaying City, who actually ran to the imperial capital to report the situation.

"Okay, Your Majesty the Queen, Your Majesty the Queen, and all my colleagues, please listen carefully, this is what happened..."

Earl Silver Leaf didn't waste any words either.

I will tell you some of the information I received, and add some exaggeration to it, hoping to attract your attention.

All the ministers in the court found it funny at first, but as Earl Silver spoke, their expressions gradually changed.

It turns out that demon from the southwest border.

It's not as simple as killing a few people or stealing some livestock.

Instead, they organized themselves into a large army, which immediately swept through more than a dozen villages and captured the castle of a noble lord.

Later on, the situation became uncontrollable and the 20,000-strong army was swallowed up in one gulp.

Many nobles were also killed and captured.

Especially when everyone heard that the devil was so evil that even Bishop Hawking suffered a loss.

The nobles in the palace were in a commotion, and their faces all looked solemn.

A person like Hawking is more noble than the average earl, and he is also a wizard of light. His strength and status are extremely important.

"How is it possible that such a thing could happen, old bishop, is it true?"

A group of nobles shifted their gazes and looked at the old bishop Buffett who had remained silent.

"It is true. I just found out about it yesterday. I was just about to tell Her Majesty the Queen, but I didn't have time to tell her."

Buffett opened his eyes slightly and nodded in affirmation.

Get his answer.

The noise in the palace became louder, and everyone stopped laughing and took it seriously.

Killing a few civilians would be fine.

They actually pointed the butcher knife at them, the nobles. This was something they could not tolerate.

This must never be allowed to happen and must be dealt with seriously.

"Hmph, what do you think? Do you still think that I am making a big deal out of nothing?"

Queen Ziyue snorted, with a slightly arrogant look.

I have finally saved the Queen's face a little, so that you can look down on me...

"Okay, now that the problem has been found, the next thing is to send an army to fight the demons. How many people do you think should be sent?"

Queen Ziyue spoke again and got back to the topic.

As soon as these words came out.

The people in the palace started discussing again.

Some said 30,000 or 50,000, some said 70,000 or 80,000, some said hundreds of thousands, and some even said one million...

Everyone is in a different position, so naturally their views are different.

"Alright, alright, all of you shut up..."

Seeing that everyone had different opinions, I had no clue for a long time.

Queen Ziyue also had a headache. She interrupted everyone's discussion and looked aside: "Mother, how many people do you think we should send?"

The Queen Mother heard this and said calmly:

"Those demons are causing a lot of trouble, so we don't need to worry too much, but we can't underestimate them. How about sending a large army?"

"Okay, I'll listen to what mother says..."

Queen Ziyue thought for a moment, nodded and said:

"How about this, Earl Silver Leaf? I'll let a few earls join you in leading an army of 100,000 to fight those demons. What do you think?"

"This one……"

Earl Silver Leaf scratched his head and said:

"Your Majesty, I think these people may not be enough."

"What? A hundred thousand troops are not enough? Tell me what you think."

Queen Ziyue frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.

The cost of maintaining an army of 100,000 is huge.

"This is what I think, Queen. If we are going to do something, we should do it carefully and safely, so as to make sure that nothing goes wrong, lest we fail to deal with it thoroughly and allow those demons to revive in the future..."

"Another point is that I am not sure I can deal with those demons myself, so it would be best if there is a Marquis to lead the army."

Earl Silver Leaf spoke slowly and honestly, expressing his true thoughts.

Anyway, he himself would never dare to confront those demons head-on.

"What? This is too exaggerated, isn't it?"

"That's right. Just a few barbaric demons. Do we need several marquises to come out in person?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was another uproar in the hall.

Because there are not many marquises in the Purple Moon Principality, only four in total.

The four marquises of Purple Moon Principality are:

The [Marquis of Tulip] guarding the north...

The Maple Leaf Marquis guarding the east...

The [Marquis of Redthorn] guarding the west...

The [Marquis of Blood Rose] guarding the south...

These four are the marquises who are responsible for managing the four directions of the Purple Moon Principality respectively.

Each of them is famous, has made great military achievements, and is an extremely outstanding talent in all aspects.

Because of this, they won't take action easily.

"This one……"

See everyone arguing.

Queen Zi Yue was also a little embarrassed and couldn't make up her mind.

"Your Majesty, I think we may need a marquis to come forward to completely shock those demons."

Just at this time.

Buffett on the side spoke up, expressed his agreement, and made up his mind for Queen Ziyue.

This old bishop never speaks without purpose, and his words still carry a lot of weight.

The arguing nobles stopped talking and waited for the queen's decision.

"Okay, it's decided."

Queen Ziyue nodded thoughtfully.

As for which one to send, there is also an opinion on this.

The Demon-Slaying City is located on the southwestern border of the Purple Moon Principality. In theory, the Marquis of Blood Rose and the Marquis of Purple Thorn are both qualified to intervene.

But these two marquises are good at different things, one likes to play defense and the other likes to play offense.

"How about this, Marquis Blood Rose will come forward and command the five cities in the southwest, with an army of 180,000. That should be enough, right, Earl Silver Leaf?"

Queen Purple Moon thought about it and decided to hand over the command to Marquis Blood Rose, who was better at attacking.

"That's enough. With Lord Marquis Blood Rose here, he will surely be able to wipe out those demons and eradicate them completely."

Count Silver Leaf stepped back repeatedly and breathed a sigh of relief.

When a marquis comes forward, he must have many earls under his command, and even more viscounts and barons.

Such a terrifying lineup can even shake the Monster Forest.

"Well, besides, the treasury is tight, and 180,000 troops are no small matter. Everyone must contribute money and effort to this matter, so that this king doesn't have to worry about it."

Queen Zi Yue glanced at the nobles in the hall, and her meaning was self-evident.

"Ahem... Your Majesty, the Church of Light also has an obligation and is willing to send three groups of Knights of Light and one group of Magicians of Light to help."

Buffett coughed twice, the first to express his support.

After all, Hawking had been slapped in the face and the Paladins of Light had been captured, so they naturally had to teach those demons a lesson.

and.

The Church of Light has great influence in the Purple Moon Principality, with a total of ten major orders of the Knights of Light.

Each knight order has 10,000 men, so three orders make 30,000 men.

A magic corps of light consists of one thousand people.

It doesn't look like there are that many people.

But the members of the Knights of Light and the Magic Corps are all elite with strong combat effectiveness and high comprehensive quality, and one can easily defeat several.

"Okay, with the old bishop's words, I feel relieved. But how should we lead the two armies fighting side by side?"

Queen Ziyue rolled her eyes and asked a question.

"Of course we will separate. The soldiers of our Church of Light will be led by the Holy Lady of Light. Your Majesty, do you have any objections?"

Buffett said calmly.

"Of course. The Saint of the Divine Religion is a good friend and best friend of mine. She is also a rare and precious girl from heaven. I feel at ease with her around."

Queen Ziyue nodded, contented.

The Holy Maiden of the Church of Light is at least one of the top five most powerful people in the Church of Light.

Looking at the entire Purple Moon Principality, it is absolutely top-notch.

The saint came forward.

With the addition of the Blood Rose Marquis, the lineup could be described as luxurious and foolproof, and even she herself felt that she was making a fuss over nothing.

It's like using a mountain to crush an ant.

that's it.

The plan of the army's expedition was finalized, without any doubt.

However, the general direction has been agreed upon, and there are still many details that need to be finalized.

For example, weapons, war horses, food and grass, etc.

All of these take time. It is not an easy task to march out an army of 200,000.

The storm is still brewing.

…………

"Huh, I'm back again..."

the other side.

Monster Forest, Wood Elf Tribe.

Mu Xiaoye and the Great Elder flew at high speed with an egg, and it took them almost half a day to return to the Wood Elf Tribe.

It was already afternoon.

The brilliant light shone down, leaving spots of light on the ground.

Mu Xiaoye stepped on those spots of light, and his body and mind felt particularly relaxed.

Because this time coming to the Wood Elf Tribe, the experience is completely different from the past.

He was actually a little nervous when he came here before.

Worry about never coming back.

He was worried that the Queen would know about him and her precious daughter and slap him to death.

It's different now.

After evolving into the Demon Baron, Mu Xiaoye has gained enough confidence. Now he is definitely not someone that the Elf Queen can control at will.

If his fighting power were to fully unleash, even the Queen of Wood Elves would not be his match.

"Come on, Aifuriel, let's hurry up and don't let the queen wait anxiously."

With such a happy mood.

Mu Xiaoye pulled the great lord's jade arm and galloped all the way.

"Hey, let me go."

The Great Elder's face turned red, like a thief.

His eyes were always looking around, afraid of being seen by other elves.

But Mu Xiaoye wouldn't let her go, and deliberately grabbed her just for fun...

This is a living advertisement, so why not use it?

However, such behavior inevitably attracted surprised looks from many elves along the way, and almost made the great elder cry.

that's it.

They rushed all the way to the Elf Mother Tree, and Mu Xiaoye was still holding the Great Elder.

It's just so strong.

Then, with the notification from the elven guards, I met the Queen of the Wood Elf again, as well as Angela, who had given birth to a child a few days ago.

"My Queen, it's been a long time since we last met. You are becoming more and more beautiful."

Maki Xiaoye smiled.

Together with the Great Elder, he waved his hand calmly.

"Well, you're finally here."

As soon as the Wood Elf Queen saw Mu Xiaoye, she became furious because she already knew the reason behind Angela's pregnancy.

But he did not rush into action, but instead dismissed the elf guards around him.

Don’t air your dirty laundry in public…
