Villain Lord: Both The Player And The Protagonist Want To Kill Me

Chapter 279 Negotiation (4)

Could it be that the Elf Queen has already contacted Naga?

This is indeed not good news.

But it is not ruled out that the Elf Queen is bluffing.

But it is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist.

Irons thought it would be better to err on the side of caution.

"I need to discuss your proposal with His Majesty Winter. Please forgive me for not agreeing to you immediately."

He bowed slightly and saluted, with a calm expression. He seemed not to be concerned about the news that the Elf Queen might have contacted Naga.

"Okay." Elf Queen Alice nodded, but she still warned:

"You have to be faster, because Leskali is already gathering troops."

…

Turning around and leaving the Elf Queen's palace, Aarons returned to his tree house unimpeded thanks to the stealth technique arranged by the Elf Queen herself.

The time for the stealth technique has just expired.

Irons' appearance as an elf is also revealed.

"Oh~ Allen~ Where did you go so late at night?"

A familiar voice came from above.

It's his neighbor, Rosie.

A brave and skilled Elf Sword Dancer.

The strength is approximately equal to that of a human knight to an earth knight.

This is a slender elf with a handsome appearance. His naked upper body is engraved with some totems unique to the elf culture. His well-proportioned muscles appear as he stretches his waist.

"Oh, let's go out and relax. Isn't this going to be a war? I always feel panicked."

Aarons smiled slightly, found an excuse at random, and hung the crescent moon dagger on his waist on the pergola under the tree house very skillfully.

"Yeah, there's going to be a war..."

Rosie jumped down from the oak tree, walked to Aarons' side, patted Aarons' shoulder gently, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, stay with me during the war and I will protect you~"

Aarons was silent for a moment after hearing this. He glanced at Rossi who was gearing up, and suddenly asked tentatively:

"Rosie, do elves and humans have to fight to the death?"

Visible to the naked eye, Rossi's face quickly darkened, and there was strong murderous intent and hatred hidden in those twinkling eyes.

"Why would you ask such a question?"

Rossi looked at Irons coldly.

His height is more than a head taller than Aarons, and he looks quite oppressive at the moment.

This made Aarons couldn't help but a thin layer of sweat broke out on his back.

"Feel sorry……"

After a while, Rosie sighed.

The aura on his body has completely dissipated.

"I shouldn't do this to you, you...come with me..."

After saying that, Rossi led the way. He waved to Aarons and motioned for him to follow, and then climbed up the tall oak tree in a few vertical steps.

Aarons hesitated for a moment, remembering the neighbor's usual way of dealing with people, so he followed closely without any further entanglement.

Before entering the Emerald Forest.

He spent half a month training the elves' ability to shuttle in the woods. Now, although the speed of moving around in the trees is not as fast as that of elite elves, it is almost the same as that of ordinary elf warriors.

This is one of the reasons why he can fully integrate into the elves.

Rossi knew that Irons' strength was average, so he also slowed down.

Eventually he led Irons to his own home, a wooden room built into an oak tree.

It is surrounded by lush branches and leaves, and some vines are wrapped around the doors and windows of the wooden house. The branches and leaves of oak trees have been specially pruned in the upper left corner. Looking out from the window of the wooden house, you can just see the bright moonlight.

"Ellen, sit wherever you like."

Rosie brought a small stool made of woven rattan and motioned for Aarons to sit down.

Almost every elf can knit this kind of small stool. It has a beautiful shape, a light fragrance, and a very good load-bearing capacity.

As soon as Aarons sat down, Rossi brought another pot of moonshine wine. He handed Aarons a cup, tipped the wine pot a little and filled the cup, then sat on the ground, leaning against the door of the cabin.

At this moment, there happened to be a ray of moonlight pouring on his face.

Then he took out a box.

"Click——"

The box was opened gently, and inside there was a staff, a starlight butterfly hairpin, and a dagger with a curled blade.

"Arons, you just asked me that question, and I'm going to give you an answer now."

Rosie's eyes swept over the objects in the box one by one, with reminiscence and strong sadness.

"This staff belongs to my mother."

Rossi gently picked up the staff, raised it, faced the moonlight, and carefully examined the lines on the staff. He placed his palm on the handle of the staff, and seemed to be able to feel his mother holding the staff. The temperature in the palm of your hand.

"The territory in the core area is so large. It is impossible for all the elves to live in it. Her Majesty the Queen can only establish a ranger to protect the safety of the elves living on the periphery."

"My mother is a member of the rangers and is responsible for the security on the outskirts of the Emerald Forest. She patrols the outskirts of the Emerald Forest every night to prevent human slave-catching teams from infiltrating."

Rosie held the staff tightly, her mood became depressed, her eyebrows drooped, and her teeth gritted loudly.

"That night, a group of slave-catching teams split into multiple directions and entered the outskirts of the Emerald Forest. Each direction was led by a Sky Knight. These people came from the Cologne Empire. They helped Kalanli capture elves to produce an evil fruit. "

"Although our support was quick, when we went there, only the bodies of two elves were left lying on the ground in the hunting party that my mother was in. All the other elves were taken away. I could only pick up my mother's staff."

Rossi took a deep breath, slowly lowered his hand, and gently put the staff back into the box.

"This is father's sword."

"758 years ago, he died in the human attack on the Emerald Forest. Arrows almost turned him into a hedgehog. Humans also cut off his head and humiliated him as a urinal. At that time, I could only watch from a distance. , it was not until the human army left that he dared to collect his father’s remains.”

"Crack-"

The sword with the curled edge was returned to the box.

Rosie gently pinched the exquisite hairpin again.

"This is my sister's..."

A smile appeared on his lips.

It seemed like he was recalling an innocent little girl.

But that smile seemed a little too bitter.

"326 years ago, she was just an elf who had just learned archery. Her biggest wish was to meet a unicorn of her own."

"One afternoon, the human slave-catching team used a Pegasus disguised as a unicorn to lure my sister and several other inexperienced elves out of the forest."

"Because my sister resisted fiercely, the leader of the captured slave team became angry and violently assaulted her on the spot..."

"When I arrived, my sister...she was already dying..."

"Although this slave-catching team was eventually killed by us, what's the use?"

Rosie closed the box.

He looked up, tears streaking his cheeks.

Looking at Aarons with cold eyes, he asked in an extremely cold tone:

"Now, Alan, tell me, what reason do we elves have for not fighting to the death with humans?"
