Harem Overlord

Chapter 173 The Spirit Of Earth (2)(Chapter Preview)

Kai raised his eyebrows as he saw fifteen women in dresses come out of the palace. They slowly started twirling in front of him as he realized that they were buying time for the king and queen to come.

Finally, the king and queen appeared after few minutes and both of them were wearing matching brown crowns on their head. They eyed Kai's coat as though they were wondering whether it was real or not.

In the end, they decided to not take any chances as they bowed to him.

"Welcome, er, sacred ambassador." The king's tongue slipped as he was about to call Kai a head ambassador.

"Nice to meet you again. Good thing that we are doing this with courtiers instead of armies this time." Kai said with a smile as the king and queen politely chuckled but their eyes were grim.

"Anyways, how is everything going on?" Kai asked as the king and queen went silent as Kai heard shouts coming from his behind. He turned to see a crowd of more than a hundred people traveling towards him.

"You came at a bad time ambassador." The king muttered as he raised his right hand in the air.

Guards jumped down from their posts as they surrounded the royal family and Kai as the crowd people started advancing towards them.

"Protests huh." Kai said as the king nodded and the crowd of protestors pushed forward.

"They are not too happy to see that we merged with our enemies. As if we can do anything in that." The queen snorted as Kai smiled and suddenly flew up in the air.

The incoming crowd of protectors suddenly halted as a few people within the crowd examined Kai.

All of them were wearing black masks that covered their faces while they were wearing plain white robes to blend themselves.

Unless someone had an ultra sensory skill, they wouldn't be able to tell the difference between these elves.

"You know, you guys assembled quite a good protest and this might have even evolved into a revolution but you guys forgot one important thing. The ambassadors are always keeping an eye on you from the shadows." Kai said with an evil smile as he raised his right arm and the ground below the protestors began to quake.

A hand rose from the ground and sent many elves flying away. Most got away with minor injuries while some had major ones but no one died.

"Do you want me to kill them?" Kai suddenly asked as he turned towards the king and queen.

They narrowed their eyes at Kai's question as they didn't understand why he was asking them about something so simple.

They then realized that it was a trick question.

,m "As much as I want to kill them, please let them go since this is not the way to solve this problem. We can try to use absolute force on these guys but that would be worthless since someone else would rise one day." The king said as Kai nodded and flicked a finger in the protesters direction.

A strong force of wind knocked them away as Kai brushed off his hands and landed on the ground.

"I want a report of everything that has happened in the past week." He said to the king and queen as they nodded and walked inside the palace.

After seeing so many palaces, Kai was bored by the details as he yawned while moving inside. His ears however perked up as he heard a baby's laughter echoed throughout the entire place.

"Did someone have a child recently?" Kai asked the queen with curiosity as she nodded.

"Our eldest son and his wife just had a daughter. That's probably her laughter." The queen said with a real smile as Kai nodded.

The laughter grew louder the further they moved as a quick-moving figure suddenly tackled with Kai's legs.

Kai blinked in surprise as he looked at the small girl tangling around his feet. His eyes suddenly widened as he gazed at her.

Pure blue jewel-like eyes glimmered on her face with short curly brown hair coming in front of her ears. The child had a small smile on her face as she looked at Kai.

"Gaia." Kai whispered under his breath but the girl somehow heard him as she looked up at his face and nodded as though she recognized her name.

"I am sorry for that." Kai heard as he saw a beautiful woman coming walking behind Gaia.

His expression tightened as he looked into everyone's mind. But his eyes suddenly hurt as soon as he peered into their minds.

He quickly exited their minds as pain died down. He then looked at Gaia before looking at the woman standing behind her.

The woman had flowing brown hair with glinting golden brown eyes and she was smiling as she looked at Gaia.

The woman then did a double-take as she examined Kai's clothes and quickly bowed as she forced Gaia to bow her head.

The child protested by running away from the woman's hand but she managed to catch Gaia and forced her to bow.

"On behalf of my daughter, I am sorry for that." The woman said sincerely as Kai smiled and shook his head.

Though his mind was buzzing full with numerous thoughts as he looked at the little girl with a sad expression.

Gaia the spirit of earth was standing in front of him in the form of a child.

The small girl was a foot and six inches tall with hair that curled at the nape of her neck. Her jewel blue eyes were wide open as she looked at Kai as though he was a specimen for her to examine.

'How am I supposed to make a child help remember her memories?' Kai wondered as Gaia extended her hand towards Kai.

He bent down and shook her hand which was as big as .his finger. Gaia smiled at him as Kai looked at her mother.

"How old is she?" He asked as the woman hesitated a little.

"A week old." She replied as Kai frowned.

"That doesn't sound right." He said as he examined Gaia. From no angle did she look like a week old.

"The thing is..."
