Chapter 236

The entire hall was left with only Su Yu, Sylph, and Millyragos.

Warm sunlight streamed through the windows,

and Millyragos could no longer suppress the emotions within her heart.

She could no longer support her trembling, delicate body.

She loosened her grip on the imperial staff in her hand.

The scepter of imperial authority rolled onto the floor, making a crisp sound.

Su Yu's gaze followed the rolling imperial staff.

His mind went blank for a moment.

What is going on here?

The scene that followed immediately left him dumbfounded.

He saw the Elf Empress clutching her chest,

kneeling on the ground,

and emitting a trembling, soft voice:

"This humble one... Tracy Millyragos, the 19,610th generation Empress of the Elf Clan, pays homage... to my lord, the Elf Goddess."

As her words fell,

the entire palace fell silent.

Su Yu swallowed hard, looking at Sylph in astonishment,

then stepped aside two paces to avoid the Elf Empress's prostration.

Some things are not something he can bear.

How could a mere human lord like himself bear such a bow?

Su Yu looked at Sylph.

Since arriving in the Endless Forest,

Sylph had always worn an expression of reminiscence.

He knew Sylph's status within the Elf Clan

must be extremely extraordinary.

After all, she was an Elf myth; she must have been a high-ranking figure of the Elf Clan in the past.

Yet,

he never could have imagined she could be extraordinary to this extent.

Even if she had returned from the river of time,

she could still cause the Elf Empress to kneel!

The Elf Goddess?

What kind of existence was that... Su Yu had never even heard of it.

"You know me?"

Facing Millyragos's prostration, Sylph did not dodge,

but naturally accepted this bow.

She simply did not expect that anyone in the Elf Clan could still recognize her,

and her face showed a look of surprise.

"Y-yes."

Millyragos was at a loss, nervously pinching the hem of her skirt,

and stammered:

"In eternal life, I have read your biography countless times."

"My lord, the Elf Goddess... to be able to see you resurrected and reborn, I, Millyragos..."

As she spoke,

Millyragos began to choke up, sobbing until she could not speak.

Hearing this,

Sylph reached out her hand, helped Millyragos to her feet, and said with emotion:

"It was the Myriad Worlds Battlefield that pieced together my soul."

"I also did not expect that I would have a chance to reappear in the world."

"All of this must be credited to my lord."

As Sylph spoke, her gaze smiled toward Su Yu standing nearby.

Seeing Su Yu's nervous expression facing the Elf Empress, her eyes held a touch of playfulness.

Hearing Sylph's words,

Millyragos's gaze turned toward Su Yu standing nearby.

She knew

that the one who could cause the Elf Goddess to be reborn

must be a mythical hero recruited by the Myriad Worlds Battlefield.

Fortunately,

the lord of the goddess

was not a race hostile to the Elves,

but the human race, which was friendly with the Elves.

This made her feel immensely relieved.

She wiped away her tears, nervously straightened her appearance,

and bowed slightly to Su Yu.

Su Yu stepped back, clasped his hands in a bow, and returned the gesture.

Miliyages smiled brightly: "May I ask your name?"

"Su, Su Yu," Su Yu answered truthfully.

"Lord Su Yu..."

"I cannot bear such a title, Your Majesty. Please..."

Su Yu's head buzzed, feeling a throbbing pain.

He saw Sylph's expression, clearly watching him for amusement,

and couldn't help but feel furious.

Once back in the territory, he would punish her severely!

Su Yu dared not let the Elven Empress treat him with such reverence.

If other elves learned of this, they would likely wish to tear him apart.

Previously,

the Elven Empress had ordered all elves to leave the palace,

obviously because Sylph's identity could not be exposed.

Even for elves allowed into this palace,

no matter how loyal or devoted,

they could not risk even the slightest possibility.

He is the lord, and Sylph is the hero;

neither has he grown strong, nor has Sylph.

I believe that in the myriad worlds, the majority of races

would not wish to see the myth of the Elven race return,

let alone see the Elven race once again stand above them.

The Elven Empress conversed with Su Yu for a while,

then smiled and said, "Then how about we interact as equals?"

"You call me Yages, and I will call you Su Yu."

This was the utmost concession Miliyages could make.

After all, Su Yu is the lord of the Elven Goddess.
