Chapter 68 Anno And Four Half-Elves
Chapter 68 Anno And Four Half-Elves
At this moment, in Hikaru's territory, Anno sat on a bed and let out a sigh. Her face was extremely calm, in stark contrast to her attitude in the living room.
In front of her were four Dark Elf girls. Anno looked at them and said, "Anio, Amia, Anyu, and Aran. You all have worked hard. "
Anio had a sleepy face and messy hair, like she had just woken up. Amia was a Dark Elf girl with round-rimmed glasses and short hair, and her demeanor resembled that of a professional secretary. Anyu was the girl holding her stomach. Her face had a little scowl. Her hair was long and reached her back. Aran had long, curly hair. However, her face looked indifferent.
These four Dark Elf girls all had similar faces, and the only way to distinguish them is by their hairstyle and personality. If they wore the same hairstyle and clothes, they would be indistinguishable.
Anio tilted her head and said, "It's okay. But why did you act like that in the living room?"
Amia added: "That's right. "Princess, why are you getting angry over such trivial matters?"
Anyu then said: "Haizz... I just want to eat something."
Aran silently stared at Anno.
Anno let out a sigh. In fact, these four Dark Elf girls were not purebred Dark Elves; they were just half-elves. Forty years ago, Anno found them in an abandoned house; these four girls were only about 7-8 years old at the time.
Anno still vividly remembered meeting these four girls for the first time. At that time, Anno was surveying the situation when she found a village. This village was just recently burned, and all that was left of it was a few burnt-out houses. It seemed that an army had annihilated all the people inside the village, as the bodies were piled up in a pile that was over seven meters high.
Although hundreds of Dark Elves died, it was something that Anno had often seen before. The people in this village were not Dark Elves; they were just Half-Elves. It was because their blood was not pure that they were not allowed into the Dark Elf Kingdom.
These people also had nowhere to go, so they could only gather together and build small villages around the Dark Elf kingdom.
In fact, Anno's mother, although she did not allow them to enter the kingdom, allowed them to live in the areas surrounding the kingdom. Anno felt that her mother was cruel at first, but as she grew up, she realized that politics was not an easy thing. Even though Selvih is the Dark Elf queen, that doesn't mean she can do whatever she wants.
Besides the Dark Elf Queen, there is the Senate Council. Every opinion or decision made by all Dark Elves in the Kingdom must go through Selvih and the Senate Council. If Selvih agrees but the Senate Council disagrees, the policy cannot be implemented.
Even though Anno's mother only allowed them to live outside the kingdom,they were grateful to her. Anno was also curious about why they were so happy just living outside the kingdom, and Selvih told Anno the reason.
Half-elves were not considered elves. The elf race only sees half-elves as incomplete products that need to be eliminated. They see them as an insult to the elves. Therefore, when purebred elves see half-elves, they would kill them and proclaim that they are "cleaning the world".
Yes, in the eyes of purebred elves, half-elves were the things that made this world dirty and also polluted the air.
Therefore, the fact that Selvih let the half-elves live around the Dark Elf kingdom was a great favor to them.
However, because they lived outside the kingdom, they were not protected by the kingdom's army. That's why, every day, some Dark Elf villages were being destroyed by the other races.
Anno looked at the pile of corpses in front of her and was also unfazed. She remembered that at first, when she saw a mountain of corpses, she vomited to the point of tears, and then she was afraid to leave the room for a month.
Now it was different. She was used to images like this. Anno suddenly sensed that someone was still alive in the pile of corpses, so she immediately sent a patrol to search. After that, Anno found four Half-Dark Elves who were quadruplets.
That's right, they were the four Dark Elf girls standing in front of Anno right now. Their names were also given by Anno. From then on, they became Anno's servants.
Returning to the present, Anno sighed and said: "I don't want to either, but I need to pretend. A fool is usually less guarded than a smart one, right?"
Amia looked at Anno. She pushed up her glasses and said, "Princess, I don't care why you're pretending or what you're doing. I just want to ask... you forgot the four of us, right?"
"Ack!" Anno was startled by Amia's question. Right after that, all four of them stared at Anno, making her a little embarrassed.
With tears in her eyes, Anio looked at Anno and said pitifully: "Princess, have you forgotten us? It's horrible. If we had been outside any longer, we would have died from that explosion."
Amia added: "Yes."
Anyu sighed: "Haizzz..."
Aran stared at Anno with pitiful eyes.
Anno didn't know how to explain it because she hadn't forgotten them. In fact, after coming to this territory, she had planned to bring them to this place. However, Anno didn't know what kind of person the owner of this castle was, so she intended to observe him for a while before bringing them to this place.
Anno also found it difficult to understand why her mother, Selvih, seemed to trust Hikaru so much. Selvih even said that Anno should cooperate with Hikaru.
Although she felt confused, Anno still followed what Selvih said. However, Anno still pretended that she was still stupid so that Hikaru wouldn't suspect her or pay much attention to her.
Anno sighed and said: "Alright! It's my fault. Sorry."
Amia said with a very calm face: "Princess, you don't need to apologize to your servants."
Anno just smiled at that and said: "I've said it so many times, I've never considered you guys my servants."
The four of them who heard that smiled. All five of them understood what each other was thinking. After forty years of living together, they understood each other so much that there was no need to explain some things.
Suddenly, Anno said: "Alright! Now everyone listens to my orders. "
As soon as they heard Anno speak, the four girls all listened seriously.
Anno: "For now, we will live in this territory. Although we don't know how long we will be in this place, everyone, please help the people inside the territory as much as you can. However...
When Anno got here, her face became serious, and her eyes were sharp like knives: "Everyone must not show their strength and remember that you must always wear the Misty Stone on your body so that others won't be able to peek at you."
"Yes!" All four of them said it in unison.
Suddenly, Amia asked, "Princess, when are you going to stop pretending?"
Hearing that, Anno sighed: "Haizzzz..." I also don't want to hide it from everyone. In fact, the Dark Elf Kingdom is in danger.
"In danger?"
"Why?"
"Haizz, war again?"
"…"
Anno nodded, "That's right. I know that if I stay in the kingdom, it won't help my mother in any way. On the contrary, it will make her worry even more."
Anno was right; she wasn't a stupid girl either. Anno understood that if she was captured by the enemy, Selvih's enemies would use her as a tool to threaten her mother.
Although Selvih didn't say anything, Anno could understand her own situation. Therefore, Anno accepted to stay in this place so that Selvih could fight more comfortably.
Anno continued, "Until I determine what kind of person the owner of this territory is, I will still pretend to be a dumb and fearful girl. I hope everyone can cooperate with me."
…
Meanwhile, in a giant cave underground, the cave was dark, damp, and cold. The only light in this place came from the giant pillars.
Those pillars were about five meters high and looked like giant hexagonal-shaped crystals that rose from the ground. They were transparent and gave off a faint blue light.
However, what made these pillars special was that inside them were many different creatures and races. In another pillar, a girl with a beautiful appearance and long hair was frozen inside like a specimen. She looked like she was sleeping.
That's right, that was Hana.
Outside, a man in a gray robe walked around leisurely and looked at the pillars as if enjoying works of art. Suddenly, another man in a black robe appeared, with an extremely frightened expression.
"Morital, what the hell are you doing?" The man in the gray robe spoke uncomfortably.
Morital panted continuously. He tried to get his breathing back to normal and said: "Tyne, you can't imagine who I just met."
Tyne frowned. However, the cloak covered his entire face, so it was impossible to see Tyne's face clearly. He asked, "Who? Who could make the bloodthirsty assassin Morital so scared? "
Morital knew that Tyne was serious, so he didn't hide it either: "A Fairy Dragon."
"Fairy Dragon? Impossible!" Tyne immediately countered: "How could a fairy dragon appear in this world? Are you perhaps mistaken?"
"No!" Morital shook his head and assured: "It's definitely a fairy dragon."
Tyne still couldn't seem to believe what Morital said. It wasn't that Tyne didn't believe it, but that what Morital had just said was too difficult to believe. He said: "Dragons are the most difficult creatures to appear in this world. For them, this low-level world doesn't have anything that interests them, so they won't come to this world."
Morital shook his head again and said, "No! She was summoned here."
"Summoned? Because of some powerful existence? "
"No! A human."
"BANG!" Tyne felt like he was struck by lightning. His face showed an unbelievable and scared expression. He then looked at Morital and said: "No way, no way! A Fairy Dragon summoned by a human?"
"Calm down!" Morital laughed and said: "That human is one of the players in this world."
As soon as Tyne heard it, he felt a chill down his spine, like he was in an ice cellar. "If this is true, we can't stay here for long." He said, while trembling.
