At noon, the sun shines on the earth, and the temperature is so high that people complain.
I don't know when, I heard a whisper in my ears. I don't know who it is or what it says.
People searched curiously, but found that everyone around them heard it, and quickly turned into fear. Is this someone chanting a magic spell?
"Look!"
"What is that!"
As one person discovered it, people looked up to the sky and saw an unknown object shining.
The golden light spreads to the earth, covering a radius of 300 kilometers and 100,000 square kilometers.
Bathed in the golden light, people changed from fear to peace, feeling comfortable and feeling better than ever before.
The animals lay on the ground, quietly enjoying the comfort of the power of light.
The plants swayed, as if thanking the power of light for ridding their bodies of toxins from the water.
The discolored water returns to clarity and flows happily.
Only the dead fish and shrimps showed the previous disaster.
The culprits, the dark elves, were hiding in the basement and shivering, looking at the light coming from the cracks in horror.
This is a force of light they have never seen before, so powerful that they have nowhere to hide.
"ah……"
As they became ashes, the faces of their companions and the human spies who responded to them became even more like ashes on the bottom of a pot.
Because that voice was saying that it was a series of 9 princes, including 21 princes and 22 princesses, who instructed the dark elves to use dark magic to pollute the water source.
Needless to say, the effect was evident from the roar outside. People were going crazy with anger.
…
Three days later, the news spread back to the imperial capital.
The 9th Prince's faction was immediately isolated, and other factions took advantage of this to make a fuss.
9 The prince was so angry that he vomited blood. Obviously everyone wanted to do it, but they were at different stages.
But people have expressed their stance one after another. They are all upright and will never do such dirty things, let alone want to poison millions of people through water sources.
In fact, everyone knows that if you can use dark magic to pollute it now, you will definitely be able to remove it in the future.
9 The prince's idea should be that he would be the savior and take possession of the western granary.
As a result, he was intercepted and beaten as a ruthless person.
And the crime is colluding with foreign races and harming the human race.
There was no way he could get over this crime.
9 The prince also knew this, so he did not stay in the imperial capital after the meeting for fear of being attacked by a group.
He flew directly back to his territory to prepare for war, which was right next to the imperial capital.
In fact, other factions really think so, but they still need to discuss how to divide it.
…
The 3rd prince, 73 years old, and his half-sister, the 11th prince, 67 years old.
Princess 6, 71 years old, and her half-brother Prince 16, now 63 years old.
The 9th prince, 70 years old, and his descendants include the 21st and 22nd princes who he raised, twins, now 41 years old.
The 10th prince, 70 years old, and his descendant include the 24th prince whom he raised, who is now 43 years old.
15th prince, 62 years old.
19th Princess, 59 years old.
35 Prince, 42 years old.
49 Princess, 34 years old, has a powerful teacher behind her, so she survived the bloody night in the palace.
67 Prince, 31 years old, has a powerful Duke grandfather behind him, so he survived the bloody night in the palace.
Brigitte, on the other hand, had a clever mother who used magic to freeze the fetus after she became pregnant and found another one to replace her.
The substitute died on a bloody night in the palace, so her mother felt at ease and found a place to slowly give birth to her.
I didn't want her to return to the palace, but she didn't hide away.
Fortunately, 14 forces had already taken shape at that time, carving up the territory around the imperial capital, and Brigitte had no talent, so she was allowed to survive.
…
Princess 21 and Princess 22 were left in the imperial capital to inquire about information. On the tower in the palace, Princess 21 looked at the bustling imperial capital, but she was worried, "Sister, what should we do?"
"Sister, maybe we need to find someone else to take refuge with."
"Who are you talking about? 3rd brother? 6th sister? 10th brother? 15th brother? 19th sister?"
"Have you never considered that little sister who is 39?"
"She? Why?"
"Don't you find it strange that the series of things surrounding her recently are strange?"
"When you say that, it's indeed a bit strange."
"I have two guesses, one is accidental."
"Where's the other one?"
"She has a secret, like an ancient ruins."
"Ancient ruins?"
"Yes, just like in the novel, she found the ancient ruins, gained the power in the ruins, and subdued the monsters that guarded the ruins or were suppressed in the ruins."
"Three evil dragons!"
"That's right."
"But is that possible? How long has she been out?"
"Maybe it was left to her by her mother, that smart woman who was once an adventurer."
"Well, if it's like you said, she is quite capable, but relying on her..."
"Sister, we are with Brother 9. No matter who we join, the conflicts over the years will not be treated as if they have never happened, and they will not treat us sincerely. Only Sister 39, we had no enmity with her before, and she is now
There is also a lack of team members.”
"That makes sense, so how should we go? I think they must be watching us, not to mention our guards."
"Sister, what we want to take away are not the guards, just the clerks."
"ah?"
"Sister 39 does not lack strength. She lacks people who can help her manage the territory. She must also lack craftsmen and alchemy secrets."
"But if we don't have those guards, who will ensure our safety?"
"Sister, those guards are too conspicuous and cannot be taken away. We can only let them come over later."
"But without them, how can you be sure that Sister 39 will not kill us and seize the people we brought with us."
"Sister, you didn't notice."
"What?"
"That's light magic. If you can use light magic to that extent, your light attribute must be very high, your character will be very bright, and you will definitely not kill at will."
21 The princess paced for a long time, "But I'm still worried, what if it's not her, but someone else..."
"Sister, do you think we still have options? After Brother 9's death, we must find someone to join us, otherwise it would be best to be deposed. Are you willing to be imprisoned for the rest of your life? I don't want to."
"But does it have to be a 39-year-old girl? I really have no confidence in her."
"I believe more that if we seek refuge with others, we will be emptied out and then swallowed up."
"Okay, just as you said, sister, let's go join Sister 39."
"Okay sister, then I will make arrangements."
"No, no, there's no need to hide. Call the guards immediately, return to your territory, and then raise your troops to the west."
"ah?"
"Since you want to join us, bring all the belongings you can bring. Their target is Brother 9. They want us to go to the west, because they can use this as an excuse to capture the west later."
"I understand, as long as we tell Brother 9 that it's an attack, he won't stop us from leaving."
"That's right. Anyway, Sister 39 has food and can feed the army. It just so happens that she can also suppress the two dukes around her."
"Ha, my sister is better at calculating big things than me, but we have to inform Sister 39 first to prevent her from messing around."
