Chapter 224 The Cabinet of the Elf Royal Family (Xiao Wu)
Although the time in the Forbidden World is tight, it still allows your eyes to wander a little.
Overlord world, elf kingdom, royal cabinet——
Around the round table, which could only accommodate less than ten people, several elves were sipping drinks while waiting for their king to arrive.
They are the children of the late king, the third-ranked son Orux and his sixth-ranked and twelfth-ranked daughters Victoria and Irene respectively; the fourth-ranked son Matisse and his wives and concubines.
His wife is Akarin, who is the thirty-sixth in order of birth; and his daughter, who is the eighteenth in order of birth, is married to Orux and Matisse, and Aurora, the former king's reverse harem.
The Royal Cabinet is an organization established under the order of Cattleya after she became the Elf Queen. Its members are composed of a small number of descendants of the previous king who were favored by the previous king and were specially trained (abused).
It seems that in order to gather some power, the number of people on the head has also increased, which makes the Elf Council somewhat dissatisfied. However, like the previous generations, it is helpless in the face of absolute strength. The Elf Council has no right to interfere with the major decisions of the Elf King's bloodline.
The remonstrance has the effect of applying the brakes, and I pray that the royal family will not be stupid.
But Cattleya actually had no intention of doing this. It was just to move things that were originally in the audience to the stage, and her real reason for doing this was: after she became the queen, she would give her relatives kings and official titles based on seniority and tradition.
It is also an inevitable ritual, but she found that because the concept of incest promoted by the late king popularized goblins, the seniority of these royal bloodlines was so confusing that it made her head spin. There were so many of them, so——
Okay, originally the two most favored brothers of the Elf King and their spouses were all crowned princes, and the rest could only have the status of members of the royal cabinet. That's it.
However, the tree house occupied by the royal cabinet is usually used by these elves as a place for tea parties and games.
"Isn't sister here yet? If I drink any more, I will want to pick flowers." At some point, Irene put down the cup and asked.
"There are enough people, let's play checkers?" Akarin condensed the magic light with his fingers and knocked on the table, revealing a six-pointed star magic circle that turned into a chessboard.
"Then it's better for us to cross-infect together here." Aurora said, paused, and added, "Maybe my sister is entangled by the goblin. What we do here will definitely trigger the goblin's anger.
If you complain, you can just brush off what happened to my sister."
"Forget it, I'm tired from last night, today I don't... ugh!" Before Ollux could finish his words, he was beaten down by Victoria, Irene, and Aurora each using their magic.
The three women rode on Orlux and beat him in turn, as if to vent their anger, and said——
"It's true that you stayed out all night last night!"
"He ran to my sister's room!"
"Just go and forget it! Why didn't you call me?"
"Wait a minute, didn't you kick me out? I know you're angry, but I really didn't do anything bad as Victoria's mother! Why don't you believe it... You're going too far, right?
!I have never lost to anyone except my sister!"
For a moment, all kinds of low-level long-range magic and mid-level melee magic were flying around the house like fireworks. For the time being, everyone retained their sense not to tear down the house and interior furnishings.
"It's so scary. Did I poke a trap?" Akarin stood up and shrank behind the defensive magic deployed by Matisse.
"It's okay, you just get used to it." Matisse touched the back of Akarin's head.
"Don't stay out of it! Come together!" Afroya turned around and threw a magic sulfuric acid ball towards Matisse.
"Holy shit! You want to disfigure me!" Matisse cursed as he dodged the ball and noticed a "sizzling" sound behind him.
"You remember that I have a job as a priest. I will cure you in the evening. Whoever loses will be underneath next time! Akarin, you should hide under the table first."
"Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa," Akalin crouched down with his head in his arms and sobbed, "I haven't even mastered sixth-level magic. I probably can't withstand a few shots at this level.
Must my son also develop this kind of virtue in the future?"
Suddenly, there was a heavy pressure that seemed to make the air thicker, and accompanied by a wave of [magic invalidation], everyone was immobilized, and at the same time, all the out-of-control magic disappeared.
"I was delayed by Ivonia and Cirno for a while, but you guys had a lot of fun. No one is dead. If there are any, carry them to the Fairy Temple and come back for the meeting. If not, just start the meeting directly.
"Cattleya sat on the table, supported her face with one hand on the table, and said.
"Yes~" x 6
Erin: "Speaking of which, weren't the recent fights peaceful?"
Matisse: "Yeah, it's a miracle that no one has died in the Elf King Academy for two months."
Aurora: "Isn't it the reason why Teacher Lily and Ram are afraid that Descendant is not here during these times?"
Ollux: "During the 'Hundred Years Aftershock' period, the big shots are very busy. Well, if the sky falls, it has nothing to do with us."
The others muttered and returned to their seats, and Akarin also climbed up from under the table.
Cattleya: "After all, only a few countries, organizations, and religious leaders know about the 'Hundred Years Aftershocks.' For the majority of races, including our subjects, it is just a matter of natural and man-made disasters that occur regularly every hundred years, and the brave magicians come out to fight.
At this time, Lord Crounpis has become more lax than ever in his care of Bai Yiji, which may have a lot to do with this 'hundred-year aftershock'. What do you think?"
Ollux: "There is also news from the Theocracy and the Dragon Kingdom. If nothing else, they should have taken the initiative. More specific news cannot be available so soon."
Avora: "That is to say, Sister Cattleya hopes to benefit from the '100-year aftershock' that has occurred, right? It would be great if there were great equipment and good men."
Mattis: "I think this is unlikely. If this place was needed, we would have already notified the transportation of supplies or cannon fodder. Since it was deliberately blocked, it means you don't want us to interfere, right?"
Victoria: "It's a good thing that we don't want to interfere. In the eyes of ordinary people, we are extremely powerful, but if we get involved in the war between gods, we are really cannon fodder. It's the same as what brother Matis said. But Sister Cattleya probably
He can be considered a good general, hehehe."
Cattleya: "I think it's quite possible that they just forgot or thought we were useless. So here's the problem. Since they are busy dealing with the '100-year aftershock' matter, what about Sister Bai Yiji, who was originally closely 'guarded'?
Where did it go?"
Erin: "That guy has the same spatial ability as the tenth-level magic, wouldn't it be weird to go anywhere? Maybe he's gone to another world."
Cattleya nodded proudly for some reason: "Hmm, even without pointing it out, everyone can tell that Bai Otohime is a person who came from the so-called different world in the form of a 'hundred-year aftershock' or something similar to the 'hundred-year aftershock'.
