Chapter 45 The Forest of Spirits

Thinking of this, Vanessa couldn't help but ask: "Glory, as far as I know, Prince Loris is not keen on participating in the dispute over the throne. As his captain of the guard, you shouldn't have too much trouble. How could you be wanted and called a traitor? What did you do?"

Glory nodded and said, "The little prince has never had the determination to compete for hegemony. For many years, I just accompanied the little prince to play around. However, I have made great contributions to rescue the car many times and turned the tide in danger. I still remember that time..."

"Ahem..." Aluen coughed coldly, interrupting him, "Choose what's important, don't mess around."

Glory responded hurriedly: "Yes...yes. The cause of this matter starts with the little prince's preferences. For many years, the little prince's biggest hobby is to visit all over the place and see all kinds of food and beauties. In order to avoid gossip and avoid the whirlpool of the palace fighting, most of the year has to travel around other places, saying that it is to be sympathetic to the people and patrol in a slight manner. In fact, it is to be greedy for pleasure and eat, drink and have fun everywhere."

"You are the one who loves food?" Roy interrupted and sarcastically

"This, this... Of course I like delicious food too, but it's mainly the prince...ah, it's the prince." Glory blushed and said calmly: "Oh, don't interrupt me. Didn't you keep asking me to tell me? Now I'm interrupting?"

Glory was unreasonable and had much confidence in speaking. He recalled, "About four months ago, we were on a tour of the north of the empire. Suddenly one day, the prince said on a whim that he wanted to travel to the Elf Empire. What kind of master can we subordinates do even though we know there will be danger? Not everything is followed by His Majesty's leader."

It turns out that the Elf Empire is located north of the Lannister Empire. From the northern border of Lannister, you can reach the "Elf Forest" by climbing over a low-high but very wide central mountain range.

However, the elves have never had any good feelings for humans. The continuous wars with humans over the past thousand years have caused the number of elves to continue to decrease. Most of the elves' territory was also occupied by the human empire, and almost all the remaining tribes of the elves' tribe have been transferred into the last fortress - the Elf Forest.

The borders of the Lannister Empire have been constantly in conflict with the elves for many years. It is said that there was a record of war a hundred years ago. Although the elves love peace and advocate nature, the Lannister Empire is so warlike, how can the elves that have suffered great losses to humans?

Moreover, the Lannister Empire's national strength is becoming increasingly stronger this year, and the reason why it has not yet taken action against the elves is actually because the war fronts between the South and the Kira tribes are too long and they cannot withdraw troops and manpower. The elves also understand very well that once the south is pacified, they may be Lannister's next target of invasion.

For thousands of years, the elves have been captured and abducted and sold to human cities as slaves and have been regarded as huge wealth. Having an elf slave is almost a symbol of the status of the nobles. The "Elf Forest" is vast in area and has extremely rich and high-quality natural resources, which is inevitably coveted.

If the elves had not learned some of the previous failed lessons - no longer trusting humans easily, and greatly strengthening various defense measures and guarding forces. In the forest, the elves had unique combat advantages - accurate bows and arrows, agility, unique skills, and natural magic to adapt to the jungle all made them become natural jungle kings. This is also the reason why the human empire has been reluctant to declare war on the last elf empire in the forest.

Glory continued: "At that time, our guards were not too many, with about thirty people. Of course, it was enough in Lannister, but going to the Elf Empire seemed a little shabby. However, the little prince said that this was just right. He intended to show kindness to the Elf race. If he brought more people, it would inevitably make the other party suspicious."

"What kind of play did Prince Loris play? How could he be interested in a diplomatic matter like this? He is a person who only cares about pleasure and is timid and cringing?" Roy felt very surprised and couldn't help but interrupt.

"Don't say that Prince Loris!" Glory's face turned a little red: "Although... although... he... he is the prince of the most noble royal family of the Lannister Empire after all."

Roy smiled bitterly, why is this old-fashioned knight so persistent about bloodlines, glory and other things? He was eager to listen to the story behind and couldn't help but say, "Okay, okay, the prince is the prince, he is noble. You continue to talk."

Glory seemed very satisfied with Roy's compromise and continued, "We couldn't resist the prince, so we had to obey the order. We prepared some local gifts from Lannister, and then crossed the outer mountains of the Elf Forest and prepared to enter the Elf Empire."

"Oh? Is it so easy? Isn't the Elf Empire very wary of us now? Didn't you shoot you into sieves with bows and arrows?" Aluen said sarcastically coldly.

"Their guard power is indeed very powerful." Glory recalled with a look of lingering fear: "I remember that we had just crossed the mountains and encountered a series of traps and bows and arrows. We almost failed to resist and fell into one of the thousands of magic traps! Countless arrows with natural magic, as well as those magic creatures, and a large number of elves patrol warriors appeared in front of us in an instant, which was indeed scary enough. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that the gentle and elegant elves would have such a fierce side and such strong combat ability."

"The elves are afraid of being beaten by humans, so they have to do it!" Vanessa sighed: "The elves were originally races that love nature and peace, and have gentle and polite temperaments, but the continuous massacre and plunder of humans over the past thousand years has finally shattered their dream of living peacefully!"

Glory nodded and continued, "We were really shocked by their fierce and hatred look at that time. However, the little prince had already prepared in advance. He had already asked us to give up all weapons, even daggers, in Lannister. We entered the Elf Empire without any defense."

"Prince Loris raised his hands with sincere expression to declare to the Elves that he was Lannister's prince, and brought Lannister's highest respect and kindness, and wanted to repair the broken relationship with the Elves Empire and rebuild a long-term friendship."

"Just!" Aluen snorted coldly disdainfully: "This incompetent prince has learned the hypocritical politicians' ability to tell lies. If his words are true, even the sow can climb a tree."

Glory's expression became a little embarrassed, but he still didn't dare to refute it. He seemed to have a natural fear and fear towards Aluen, as if this powerful and cold boy could easily see through his heart.

After a while, he continued: "The elves carefully inspected us and found that there were no weapons to carry, and the ones carrying Lannister's precious specialties, so their expressions seemed to be a little relieved. The little prince showed them his royal proof. Although the elves were still worried, they gradually believed the prince's words."
