Chapter 91

At that time, even the Red Demon Race was beneath them.

Naturally, they were proud by nature.

"They're here!"

Miracles softly exclaimed,

The doors of the great hall were slowly pushed open by the usher,

A strand of divine light shone in.

A group of unfathomably powerful elves took a deep breath,

Standing on both sides, preparing to bow in welcome.

However, this bow halted halfway, stuck.

Many were secretly glancing sideways,

Wanting to see exactly what personage would make the Elven Empress willingly pay the price of the "Highest Imperial Decree."

Yet,

What did they see?!

A human male, curiously walking on the red carpet,

Beside him, followed an exquisitely beautiful elf woman,

But this elf woman's position always remained half a step behind him,

Clearly indicating this human male was the leader.

Their elves, mobilizing the entire clan... just to welcome a... human?

Many elves were dumbstruck,

Even though humans and elves had friendly relations,

But to reach this extent,

It made the elves seem somewhat lowly.

Many high-level figures felt a surge of anger rising within them.

And the elf princess, Arialia, was so shocked her eyeballs nearly popped out.

"Welcome both guests to the elf clan."

Seeing a human male walking in front,

Miracles only paused slightly, then respectfully bowed.

Even the Empress bowed,

The many elves present, despite feeling speechless and dissatisfied, followed suit and continued bowing.

Hospitality had its propriety; they would not trouble the guests of the Elven Empress,

But afterwards, they would definitely demand accountability from the Elven Empress.

Especially upon seeing that human male,

Gazing intently at Her Majesty the Empress,

With his mouth drooling, saliva nearly dripping,

The elves became increasingly dissatisfied, the fire within their hearts burning hotter and hotter.

Su Yu did not understand,

that simply looking a bit longer,

had already provoked dissatisfaction throughout the entire elf race.

He was just shocked by the scene before him,

the Elf Empress actually personally approached him and Sylph...

This was the ruler of a race in the myriad realms,

different from a planetary sovereign like the Blue Star's ruler.

Behind the Elf Empress stood the entire elf race of the myriad realms.

Thus, Su Yu felt somewhat incredible,

if not for Sylph beside him,

he absolutely could not withstand such a grand-scale welcome,

his little heart felt a tad anxious.

Hearing the Elf Empress's greeting,

he was stuck for a long while, not knowing how to reply.

It looked,

like he was ignoring the Elf Empress, utterly lacking manners.

The Elf Empress, Miliyages, did not mind,

she slowly raised her head,

turning her gaze towards the elf woman beside Su Yu.

This glance,

recalling myriad-year thoughts '620',

she stared incredulously, showing a bewildered expression,

her body instantly became stiff,

her jade hand gripping tightly the Elf Imperial Staff symbolizing power, completely drained of color.

"Empress... Your Majesty?"

The Elf Grand Elder noticed Miliyages's oddity,

questioning with suspicion.

"You, all of you, leave first..."

Miliyages's voice trembled as she ordered everyone in the palace to retreat first.

She was somewhat unable to breathe.

Anyone,

could detect the Elf Empress's abnormality.

Yet the elves within the great hall merely curled their lips,

following the Empress's instruction, left.

They had long accumulated a bellyful of anger,

at this moment wishing to leave as soon as possible.

Regarding the Elf Empress's oddity,

they paid no heed.

After all, they didn't know this human man,

merely considered him an old acquaintance of the Elf Empress.

As for why the elf race was mobilized to greet him,

afterward, they would definitely criticize thoroughly.

"Yes."

The elves left one after another,

many elves glanced at Sylph a couple extra times,

but only a couple times.

The elf race, what kind of peerless beauties didn't they have?

They had long become accustomed.

The elf princess walking at the very back, Ailiya,

however, looked back at Su Yu once,

her face full of curiosity.

"Bang..."

The palace gates slowly closed,

The entire hall now held only Su Yu, Elfiel, and Milliyags.

Warm sunlight filtered through the window,

Milliyags could no longer suppress the emotions within her,

nor could she continue to support her trembling delicate form,

she released her grip on the Imperial Staff.

The staff of royal authority rolled onto the floor, producing a crisp sound.

Su Yu’s gaze followed the rolling Imperial Staff,

his mind went momentarily blank,

What's this all about?

The scene that unfolded next left him utterly dumbfounded.

The Elf Queen, clutching her chest,

knelt down on the ground,

uttering a trembling, gentle voice:

“I… the 19,610th generation Elf Queen, Tresie Milliyags, pay homage… to the Elf Goddess.”

As her words fell,

the entire palace fell silent.

Su Yu swallowed, looking at Elfiel with astonishment,

he sidestepped a couple of paces, avoiding the Elf Queen’s kneeling posture.

Some things were beyond his capacity to bear.

How could a mere human lord like himself withstand this bow.

Su Yu looked at Elfiel,

Since arriving in the Endless Forest,

Elfiel had always maintained a look of reminiscence,

he understood that Elfiel’s status among the elves

must be extremely extraordinary.

After all, she was an elf legend; surely she was a high-ranking figure among the elves in the past.

Yet,

he couldn't have imagined she could be extraordinary to this degree.

Even returning from the river of time,

could compel the Elf Queen to kneel!

Elf Goddess?

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

“Do you recognize me?”

Facing Milliyags’ kneeling homage, Elfiel did not avoid it,

she very naturally accepted this bow,

merely surprised that among the elves, someone could still recognize her,

her face showing a look of astonishment.

“Yes, yes.”

Milliyags was flustered, nervously clutching the hem of her skirt,

stammering as she spoke:

“Within my eternal life, I have countless times reverently read your biography.”

“Elf Goddess… to witness your revival and rebirth, I, Milliyags…”

As she spoke,

Milliyags began to choke, choking until she could no longer speak.

Hearing her words,

Elfiel extended her hand, lifting Milliyags up, and said with emotion:

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

“I too didn't expect I could reappear in the world again.”

“All this, I must thank my lord.”

Elfiel said, smiling as she looked toward Su Yu standing nearby.

Seeing Su Yu’s tense demeanor facing the Elf Queen, her eyes held a touch of mischief.

Listening to Elfiel’s words,

Milliyags’ gaze turned to Su Yu standing nearby,

she knew,

to enable the Elf Goddess’ rebirth,

that must be the Myriad Worlds Battlefield’s legendary hero recruitment...

Fortunately,

the Goddess’ lord,

is not a race hostile to elves,

but is the humanity that maintains friendly relations with elves.

This left her feeling immensely fortunate.

She wiped her tears and nervously tidied her appearance a little,

then bowed respectfully to Su Yu.

Su Yu retreated a step, cupped his hands in a salute, indicating his response.

Mirare Gest smiled radiantly: "May I know 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 headache.

He saw Sylph looking at him with that expression of watching his embarrassment,

couldn't help feeling annoyed,

thinking after returning to the territory, he'd punish her severely!

Su Yu dared not let the Elf Queen treat him with utmost reverence.

If other elves learned of this, they'd probably want to tear him apart.

Earlier,

the Elf Queen ordered all elves to leave the palace,

clearly because Sylph's identity could not be exposed.

Even the elves who could enter this palace,

regardless of their loyalty or devotion,

must not risk that slightest possibility.

He was the lord, Sylph was the hero,

he hadn't matured yet, nor had Sylph matured yet.

He believed most races across the myriad realms,

did not wish to see the elven myth return,

and especially did not wish the elves to dominate over them once more.

After conversing with Su Yu for a while,

the Elf Queen said smilingly: "Then... shall we treat each as peers?"

"You call me Gest, I call you Su Yu."

This was the greatest concession Mirare Gest could make,

as Su Yu was ultimately the lord of the Elf Goddess.
