Elf Story from Another World

Chapter 53

"Hey, everyone is here." The door was suddenly pushed open. Lowenstein looked at the two guys sitting together for a moment, then subconsciously waved his hand to say hello.

"Teacher." Thakuri was about to stand up and say hello, but he remembered that there was still a head on his shoulders, so he stretched out his hand and pointed at her.

"It's okay, there's no need to call her." Lowenstein simply took a detour and sat on the other side of the tower: "What did you talk about yesterday?"

"I want to learn lower-level magic." Thakuri said suddenly. He looked at Lowenstein: "Now I can use most of the high-level magic in the dark system, and even if I don't know how to do it, I can pass it." Read the book to understand.”

Lowenstein was stunned: "You mean you don't need to continue yesterday's lesson, but plan to learn new ones?"

"That's it." Takuri pointed to the girl on his shoulder: "Kara can already use second-level spells, and I don't want to fall behind her."

Lowenstein suddenly fell silent. He looked at the child in front of him and sighed: "It's so fast."

"Ah" Takuri was stunned, not understanding what he meant.

"When you learn the second level, you will have reached the pinnacle in the field of magic." Lowenstein touched his head: "This is the limit of the elf. When the time comes, you don't have to follow me anymore." Now, I’ve basically told you everything I can teach you.”

Takuri swallowed and said, "But I'm less than twenty, what should I do in the future?"

"Learn the spells of other elements, both of you are like this." Lowenstein said: "You have only reached the peak at the level of individual elements, and the use of other elements is still at the point where you know nothing about it. But you also You can choose not to learn it, since you don’t have much time to use it anyway. So you can consider working on archery or swordsmanship.”

"Oh." Thakuri scratched his head: "Then what?"

"When the time comes, the family will find an opportunity to give you some reasonable credit, and then you can arrange some positions to serve the family." Lowenstein said helplessly: "Oh, don't ask me about this kind of thing, I Just thinking about it makes me sick. If you are interested, my nephew might be willing to tell you this."

"I promise to work hard." Takuri nodded fiercely: "It will definitely be stronger than Ori from the Rovira family."

Lowenstein was suddenly stunned. He looked at Takuri and swallowed: "Ori"

"Isn't he the elemental elf who just came to the Rovira family recently?" Thakuri said dejectedly: "I heard that he can also use second-level spells."

"Who told you about him?" Lowenstein frowned, looking a little angry.

"I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I'm going to leave first." The guy lying on Takuri's shoulder suddenly jumped up, then waved to him and ran away like flying.

"Uh." Thakuri looked at the door that was slammed shut, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "It turns out she is not asleep."

"Maybe." Lowenstein looked at Thakuri, ignoring the guy who got up and left: "How much do you remember about this Ori?"

"That guy," Takuri blinked, thought for a while and said, "Isn't he just a light elf about my age?"

Then he raised his head and looked at Lowenstein with curiosity: "Why don't you tell me about him? Could it be that I have met him before?"

Lowenstein looked at Takuri's eyes as dark as pool water, paused, and sighed: "It's nothing."

After saying this, he took the book from the side and said, "Do you still want to learn?"

"I think." Thakuri nodded.

"Then let me briefly explain to you how to apply the next level."

In the huge palace, under the dome, there is a Throne of Thorns on the high steps.

On the throne, the Elf King, whose hair was slowly graying, supported his head on his arms. His beard has grown wildly in the past few years and has become like the roots of a plant. But even though he is old, his eyes are still bright and sharp, like an eagle's.

In other words, a lion who shines again.

The Elf King looked at the officials standing under the throne and let out a long sigh.

It was really like a pack of wolves ready to pounce, each one staring closely at his throne, as if it was some kind of fat meat.

It is said that he is the first elf king in history to be as cowardly as he is. Such a thing as real power has long since disappeared. Basically, he just starts the big events and reports what happened. Then the wolves began to squabble until they decided to come to a conclusion that was favorable to them.

But today is really not the right time to think about this situation anymore. No matter who is in power in the future, they should let it go.

"I need your report to be more accurate." The Elf King looked at the Elf kneeling on the ground.

"About fifty kilometers away from our city Diak, a human army has gathered." The elf took a deep breath and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart: "At that time, I was forced to patrol with my men because of heavy rain. We changed the route back and discovered the walled city. As for the specific number of people, we don’t know because we don’t have the ability to continue the investigation.”

"How are the soldiers equipped?" the Elf King muttered.

"It was raining heavily and the distance was not close." The elf's voice became smaller and smaller: "I'm very sorry, I dare not draw conclusions."

"Did you send an envoy out?" The Elf King knocked on his forehead, looking like he had a headache.

"With all due respect, I think this level can no longer be considered a provocation." Suddenly, an elf below said loudly.

As soon as the Elf King patted himself on the head, he immediately turned away and was ready to leave.

This guy is the representative of the Rovira family. Although the representative of Stras has not spoken yet, he can hardly hold it in anymore.

Then there was nothing else to do, and another pack of wolves was probably about to start arguing.

The Elf King raised his head and looked at the packed hall. In the farthest place from him, the representative of the Rhine family stood there without any presence. It can be seen that he really wants to say something, but the guys in front are blocking him more tightly. It doesn't even have the ability to come in.

"So you think this is going to be a war?" Sure enough, before the Elf King could answer, Strath's family representative Shikaro turned around and said directly to the other party.

Okay, it looks like I can take a nap. The Elf King sighed and thought to himself, then found a comfortable position, put his arms on the handles of the thorny vines, and raised his head.

This throne is alive, that's not a legend, it's common sense.

It will severely punish the person sitting on it with spikes when the Elf King makes a foolish decision or is lazy.

The Elf King didn't care. He felt the sharp plants piercing his flesh but didn't respond.

He had been stabbed for almost two hundred years, and he was about to turn three hundred, so he had long been used to this kind of pain. It can even be said that when he thinks that he will die soon, being zapped can make him feel that he is still alive.

But fortunately, this plant can drink the blood that pours out, otherwise it would be quite embarrassing for them to suddenly find themselves covered in blood while they were arguing.

The Elf King was thinking wildly on the throne, and there was already a quarrel below as he expected.

To be honest, if I really want to say that this information has any pressure, the answer is probably none.

The elves are not afraid of war. They have made too many preparations for war.

Moreover, they are still here to attack. If the elves come to defend, it will be safer.

Because to a certain extent, the forest is a battlefield specially designed for elves. On this battlefield, they are invincible.

"The Rovira family will be responsible for this matter." The guy was chattering again: "We have the most elite troops, and those human armies pose no threat."

Why would you, elite troops, keep such things to deal with me? The Elf King secretly thought in his heart.

"Then what are you going to do?" Shkaluo raised his eyebrows and looked at the opposite side with disdain.

"Depend on the tree spirits." Rovira said: "We can send the tree spirit army not far from here within a few days. No matter what method the other party uses, it will be difficult to enter our city."

"But I don't think you can do it." Shkaluo clapped his hands, and a guy immediately handed over a drawing from the side, which was a map of that area:

"We have a good relationship with the undead, and they will allow our troops to pass through the undead's territory. In this way, we can attack the army from the side. The surrounding forests are dense, and we can take care of both offense and defense."

Why do you have friendship with the undead? I wonder why I haven't seen those guys who are dying in their graves for more than a hundred years. They sent envoys here. The more the Elf King heard, the more frightened he became. All he thought about was how his family should still maintain a place in the Forest of Spirits after losing its throne.

The Elf King also knew why the two of them were so anxious to seek this opportunity to attack.

Although after this battle is over, the families involved in the battle will suffer losses. But it can establish an influence within the elves very well. In other words, for military exploits.

The Rhine family could actually take this opportunity to establish some prestige, but he didn't dare.

They know very well how much their family’s financial resources are. After fighting this time, I might not even be able to gain a foothold here in the future.

But the foundations of those two families are quite solid. Although there will be some losses in a small-scale war, they are far within the acceptable range. Therefore, for the sake of military merit, this is still a price worth sacrificing.

The Elf King touched his chin, ignoring the quarrel below, thinking about how to let his family gain something from this situation.

There is a loudspeaker array inside the palace, which makes the already noisy hall look like a market. Everyone was loudly expressing their opinions in order to gain some benefit from this matter.

"Can you listen to me?" Suddenly, an abrupt but clear voice came from below.

At this time, everyone remembered that no matter what, they were still under the throne, and the noise was really ugly. So they all stepped away one after another, pretending to be polite.

"Charlie?" The Elf King looked at the Elf coming out of the crowd and looked at the iconic scars on his face and asked, "What do you think about this?"

"I think this matter is definitely not as simple as it seems." Charlie paused: "The peace of the Elron subcontinent has been maintained for thousands of years. Although we have started preparing for war very early, but who Neither of them chose to start a war first."

"This is because once you start a war with other races, your own national strength will be empty, and other races will take advantage of it." Schkaluo, who was next to him, also thought about it and said, "I have also thought about this issue after getting this information. , but a suitable explanation has never been found.”

Explain what I think you need to explain. You will know the information before I do. The Elf King raised his eyebrows. Although he was displeased, considering the current political situation, he could only sigh helplessly.

Shikaluo continued: "I checked specifically at this point in time and found that nothing happened at this point in time. Even counting religious festivals within the human race, I couldn't find a suitable explanation."

"Is there any particularity in the location of the attack?" The representative of the Rovira family raised his eyebrows: "They attacked one of our trading points."

"A trading point that will be abandoned after the war starts." Shkaluo corrected: "That city is for the purpose of trade with the human race, so once a war starts with the human race, even if it does not attack there, it will be nothing more than a trade point. A place that would be abandoned.”

"I think knowing the purpose of their attack is the primary goal." Charlie said: "If I remember correctly, the human race did not even send us any warning or even threat this time. So much so that before we found out that the army was gathering, we even Communicate normally with humans.”

Suddenly, silence suddenly fell, and every elf lowered his head to think about this problem.

"Is it possible?" Rovira's representative broke the silence and frowned: "Is it to attack the Forest of All Souls?"

Indeed, the Forest of All Souls is the most mysterious place in the world. But it is also the easiest place to reach, because you only need to go to any teleportation platform of the elves to reach this place.

If the city can be captured and the teleportation platform has not been completely destroyed, this can be done.

But this conclusion was still too shocking, and no one responded to it for a while.

The Elf King took two deep breaths to make sure he received the information.

He closed his eyes, and his brain, which was already a bit inoperable due to age, was running at high speed, hoping to figure out a reason from this mess of things.

This guess is too bold. Although it has some truth, it is still difficult to believe.

After all, the Forest of All Souls is not part of this world...
