A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 1009: The Heir of the Rolling Stone Kingdom

" Many years ago, at a meeting to discuss how to deal with the elves, a few other mages and I raised different opinions.

"My idea was to kill all the disobedient elves, but Soria thought that I was too extreme.

"She felt that we only needed to kill half of them.

"The idea of that pedantic old man, Link, was to propose an open and fair magic duel to the higher-ups of the elf race and make them obediently accept their fate by showing our muscles.

"Edmond's suggestion was to try to turn enemies into friends.

"If he really couldn't do it, he would first incite internal strife among the elves and then attract the invasion of external evil forces.

"For example, Abyssal Demons.

"When the elves are almost completely massacred by the demons, we will descend as saviours.

"In the end, everyone unanimously objected to the proposal.

"Everyone felt that it was too troublesome.

"If you were there, which plan would you prefer?"

Matthew scratched his head.

He didn't understand that Isabelle was just discussing this with him on a whim.

Or perhaps there was a deeper meaning behind it.

Hence, he just said randomly.

" Your method is obviously the most efficient. Lord Ecmond's method is the least efficient, but it's relatively mild and has fewer side effects.

"Personally, I don't have any inclination.

" The choice depends on what effect the Alliance wants to achieve.

"So, in the end, what did the Alliance choose?"

Isabelle crossed her arms.

"We didn't choose anything.

" Look, this is the result of a meeting between a group of holy mages and legendary mages.

" When people disagree and can't convince each other, the only thing we can do is to do nothing.

" Actually, the Alliance has always been troubled by these independent territories.

" It's fine in the Watcher Highland, but the elves in Jade Court and Eversong Forest can always cause us trouble. They still act like they're independent and autonomous, which makes people angry.

"According to my secret investigation, whenever the elves encounter something bad, they will pour all the dirty water on humans or the Alliance.

" Even if the Wood Elf Queen were f * cked by the Evil Art Master, when the Wood Elves gathered together to discuss the matter, they would curse, 'It's all the fault of the humans!'

" Their reason is ridiculous. They actually think that the Evil Art Master was let into Jade Court because of the Alliance's negligence.

" However, when they were considering this problem, they forgot that when the Alliance wanted to interfere in the Jade Court's affairs, they insisted that the Elves must maintain their independence…"

The more Isabelle spoke, the colder her expression became.

It was obvious.

This wasn't the first time the Elf Clan had caused trouble for the Alliance's higher-ups.

It would be fine if it were any other time.

As the calamity days were approaching, the entire Aindor Continent was filled with uncertainty.

This made the elves 'annoying behaviour even more prominent.

Matthew's heart skipped a beat.

For Isabelle to be able to swallow her anger, the Alliance had finally decided to take action against these restless fellows!

And the handling of the Scar of the Dead this time was probably an opportunity.

This was the reason why Isabelle had asked him that question!

Thinking of this.

Matthew suddenly said,

"Actually, I have an immature plan for dealing with the elves."

Isabelle suddenly became interested.

"Tell me."

Matthew muttered,

"If the Alliance only wants to increase their control over the Jade Verdant Court and the elves, then my plan might be more efficient.

" As far as I know, the elves aren't united. Let's not talk about the conflict between the wood elves and the night elves. Even the wood elves have many factions.

" What I understand is that the Elder Council that the Wood Elves currently hold power in is very rotten. Many elves hold a grudge against them. If it weren't for the fact that elves naturally have a high degree of obedience, I'm afraid that these people would have long jumped out to fight against the Elder Council.

"My idea is very simple. I will support the opposition within the Jade Court to suppress the faction in power. Then, I will launch a coup at the right time…

"In the process of nurturing them, we can use all sorts of excuses to put in our own people among the elves…"

Matthew described a framework in detail.

Isabelle's eyes lit up.

"This plan is not bad!

"You do it!"

Matthew waved his hands repeatedly.

He didn't have time to worry about these complicated things.

"Lord Edmond is clearly more proficient in this than I am. It's safer to let him be in charge.

"In the end, I'm just a necromancer from a small place.

" It's alright to talk about the theory and framework, but I'm definitely inexperienced and full of loopholes in the actual implementation."

Isabelle frowned.

" Ever since that meteor shower, the Eternal Stronghold has been in a semi-active state. A few of them have to take turns outside the stronghold. Edmond won't be able to come back to take charge of these matters for the time being."

Matthew insisted on refusing.

" Then let's change it to someone else. I believe we can find suitable talents within the Alliance."

Isabelle thought for a few seconds and didn't insist.

"Alright then.

"Right, I have a piece of news to tell you--

"Ronan will be back soon. He's been thinking about you. When he comes back, he'll be able to look for you at any time.

"When the time comes, just tell him that you're already my student. He'll understand what to do."
