??Fifi then shifted her focus around their surroundings and furrowed her brows, seeing the devastation that lay about. The homes within 46 meters were totally destroyed, upturned and in ruins.
Orion was surely not going to like this view!
Fifi shifted her focus forward, noticing the other Four-eared elves approaching her.
Isadora and the others checked on Leif's health.
"Thank goodness, he is still alive, but we need to get him to a healer as soon as possible, or elseā¦" Isadora said, her voice trembling as she could not complete her words before they abruptly became stuck in her throat.
Carl nodded in response. "Don't worry, I'll take him back to the mansion as soon as I can," he said, carefully lifting Leif and holding him in a Princess Carrier position.
He then shifted his attention towards Leona, quietly communicating with her.
Leona nodded. "You can return with Duskcrow. I'll return with the Princess and the Prince," she said, commanding the four-winged beast-like bird, which had been staying safely at a distance with the two Pixies within its sharp claws, to soar forward and follow Carl back to their mansion.
Because they weren't sure about Leif's current state of mind, they needed to get him out of there before he woke up and did something even more dangerous, and they also needed to take care of his injuries before they became even worse.
Carl nodded in understanding. He shifted his attention towards Isadora and the others and nodded at them before turning around and jumping high up into the air, disappearing from their sight.
Once Leif was gone, Isadora sighed in relief. She walked towards Fifi and bowed down. "I am sorry for the damage our careless actions have caused. I know that my apologies won't be enough as reparations. As such, once Captain Leif gets better, I promise that I and everyone here will do my best to rebuild the damaged area. So please, I plead that you don't hold this against the entire Four-eared elves race," she pleaded.
Lyndon also bowed down willingly in defeat. He couldn't count how many times he had humbled himself to apologize since they entered this territory; he knew it was more than when he was at their palace residence in their 'Four-eared Lone Rabbit' runaway city.
Witnessing the scene, Leona reluctantly followed suit and bowed.
However, Isadora persisted, "But despite that, I am sure we are aware that Captain Leif's actions were not unreasonable. After all, the individuals behind you are among the primary figures responsible for the current plight of the Four-eared elves race. They butchered our race cold-bloodedly without any restraint and didn't bother to stop even when we were on the brink of extinction. He's a vile, bloodthirsty, unrepentant sinner who sees no wrong in everything he has done."
"So, although I don't know what kind of arrangements he has made with the key leaders of this territory, I am very sure that since it was us today if they have the opportunity to do the same to you tomorrow, he will do so without hesitation," Isadora said, her eyes filled with a fierce and reluctant emotion before she closed them briefly, then reopened them, burying the feelings deep within her gaze and returning her expression back to one of apology.
"So, for your sake and the others within Orion's Cities, I ask that you reconsider whatever agreement has been made with them," Isadora concluded, straightening her back.
Upon hearing Isadora's words, a frown emerged on Fifi's face. Truthfully, after listening to the warrior's explanation of the conflict between the two sides, she wouldn't have even thought about halting this battle; she would have even aided them if they were too weak to handle their opponents.
However, she had no idea about the arrangements Orion had made with both of them, so rather than staying on the sidelines, it was best for her to personally stop the battle if she could.
They could only wait until Orion returned from the Garden or personally meet with the Village Chief to see if he wasn't too busy handling some personal tasks.
Just as Fifi was about to open her mouth to speak, a loud, firm voice sounded behind her.
"So you think you're the good guys, huh!"
Fifi, Isadora, and the others shifted their gaze backwards, focusing on the individual who had spoken.
It was Seig.
Isadora and the others gritted their teeth as they locked eyes with him, waiting to hear what he wanted to say.
Seig returned their gaze with a fierce glint in his eyes. "I can see the hatred in your eyes and your desire to seek vengeance for the near-extinction of your race, which I understand is rightfully deserved. However, I think you guys are pathetic. You want revenge yet lack the strength to do so, and in the end, all you can do is beg. You know the harsh reality of the world outside here is not black and white, yet you behave like saints who have done no harm."
"Meanwhile, I am sure that as the Patriarch of the 'Four-eared Lone Rabbit,' runaway city, Patriarch Rylan has taken many questionable actions to keep you protected behind those comfy palace walls of yours, of which I am certain none of you are aware. So please, shut it.''
''In this dead, deranged world where everyone will do whatever is necessary for their survival, see this as retribution for whatever the Four-eared elves race had done in the past. And if you are still intent on having your revenge, then I will gladly not stay in my current position and face you myself," Seig added with a fierce expression.
He broke his gaze away from theirs and returned to the mansion.
Evadne followed behind him, understanding that her Captain wasn't in a good mood after witnessing everything that had transpired.
Seig paused before the doorstep and shifted his focus towards Isadora and the others again. "Also, when that lunatic of a Captain of yours recovers, you better warn him that I don't want to see him near my home. It's the only one I have at the moment, so it would be a shame if it were destroyed," he said, his tone firm.
