"You mean, Luna is not your daughter?"

Eli was not known for his quick mind, and although the Elf Queen's words were not too roundabout, they were not simple and straightforward either, so he was a little confused for a moment.

"She is my daughter, but she is not my own."

The Elf Queen answered as a matter of course. Although there was no blood relationship, she had always regarded Luna as her successor, the future of the elves, and her identity as a princess, as well as her status as queen, were unshakable.

"So, you are just Luna's adoptive mother?"

This time the Elf Queen explained it very clearly, so there was no way Eli could not understand it. But, how to put it, they were not actually mother and daughter, which was a bit... ahem.

"She wasn't really my adopted mother. When she was little, she was raised by the royal family along with other orphans of the same age. I didn't raise her alone. It was only when she was 180 years old that I named her the princess of the Elf Empire."

The Elf Queen couldn't help feeling a little regretful when she said this. She regretted that she missed Luna's childhood. She didn't raise her, but had to call her the Queen Mother, which was more or less a little embarrassing.

Alas, she had failed to be a good mother in the first place, and now her only child was about to leave her, and she didn’t know when she would come back…

It seems that she should consider eating a fruit of life. She has become an old woman. If she doesn't have a child, she may not be able to accompany her real daughter to grow up and become an elf.

Just as the Elf Queen was hesitating whether to have a child, Eli was also thinking about the issue of children. Of course, the child he wanted was not the same as the Elf Queen's.

Since the Elf Queen and Luna are not biological mother and daughter, and can hardly even be considered adopted mother and daughter, he can rest assured and let Luna and the High Priest have children together without worrying about the generation gap between his two children.

This can be considered a good thing, at least it saved him a lot of embarrassment. Really, such an important thing was not told earlier, causing him to be more or less entangled for more than ten seconds...

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else. You've already paid your respects to Luna's mother. There's one last place left. Follow me."

Putting her little thoughts aside, the Elf Queen took Eli to a tomb that looked ordinary in appearance.

Since he had already paid his respects to the mothers of Clea, Wendy and Luna in turn, there was no need to guess who the remaining one was, and Eli knew who his mother-in-law was.

This time, without waiting for the Queen's orders, Eli stepped forward and bowed obediently. The Elf Queen beside him waited for him to step back, then she stepped forward and bowed deeply.

Needless to say, the only person worthy of the Elf Queen's salute, besides her mother, is the also deceased Goddess of Life.

The goddess of life is naturally buried under the Tree of Life, and obviously would not appear in this cemetery, so the identity of the owner of this tomb is beyond doubt.

"This is my sister and my mother, who passed away three hundred and ninety years ago..."

At this point, there was no sadness in the Elf Queen's eyes, not because she did not love her mother. On the contrary, she always regarded her mother as a lifelong role model. Not only because she had loved her two sisters since they were young, but also because her mother was once the strongest person in the contemporary Elf Empire.

She once killed five great demon kings single-handedly, a feat that the Elf Queen achieved only after she became immortal.

If her mother had not been ambushed by the demons in the central battlefield that year and besieged to death by eight great demon kings, she would definitely be able to ascend to the Temple of the Gods in the future with her talent.

It’s a pity that the five demigods from the allied countries who were present at the time only killed three great demon kings even though they tried their best to save the mother, but unfortunately they failed to save the mother.

After their mother's death, the two sisters who were originally happy and lively seemed to have changed into elves. She became more mature and reliable, while her elder sister became a little crazy.

To this day, the Elf Queen still remembers her mother's voice, appearance and smile. At the same time, she can barely understand her sister's obsession with the secrets of life and her fanatical belief in the Goddess of Life. She... perhaps wants to comprehend the mystery of life, not to break free from the shackles and become a god, but to find her relatives who once passed away regrettably.

But that is an unattainable dream. Even the Goddess of Life, who is as powerful as the Lord God and controls the laws of life, cannot bring a legendary demigod back to life. Otherwise, why would their war against demons be so difficult?

Even if He had granted the elves immortality, the prerequisite was that those elves were originally alive. He could temporarily lock the life of a living thing, but he could not restore the life of a corpse.

Unless one day, my sister can become a being above the main god and reach the realm of the God King with the way of life, there may still be a glimmer of possibility, but... it is already extremely difficult for mortals to become gods. So far, there has not been a mortal who has ascended to the position of a god in heaven, let alone the lofty throne of the God King.

"My dear mothers-in-law, please rest assured that I will take good care of your daughters. I will treat each of them like a treasure."

At this time, Eli looked around, his gaze moved from the first grave he worshipped to the grave in front of him, then he slapped his chest very hard and made a promise to the mother of his elf wives.

"I hope you can keep your word."

The Elf Queen added quietly, she was very optimistic about Eli, but after all, one can never judge a person by his appearance. She didn’t know much about Eli’s true nature. Now that he had tasted the sweetness, he might still treat them well, but as time went on, who knew if he would get tired of the old and fall in love with the new, and throw aside the elf wives he once treasured.

"What I, Eli Bruno, said is truer than the oracle of the God King. I will not let down the daughters of my mother-in-law."

Eli may not be well-reviewed in other aspects, but when it comes to being good to his wife, he has never made any mistakes and his credibility is excellent.

"Don't add the word 'daughters' in 'daughters'. I am also the daughter of one of your mothers-in-law. Don't put me in your mouth..."

Hearing Eli's reassurance, the Elf Queen waved her hands repeatedly. Regardless of whether she believed it or not, there was something wrong with what he said. It sounded like he involved her as well.

"How could that be? My wives are all their daughters, so don't take it personally, Your Majesty." In response to the Elf Queen's objection, Eli waved his hand, telling her not to think too much about it. Although he was also attracted by the sisters, he didn't have the idea of ​​taking on so much at the moment.

"Allowing my sister to follow you is already an extra gift to you. You must not have any unreasonable expectations."

The Elf Queen didn't know much about Eli in other aspects, but she knew very well that he was lustful and greedy. This guy definitely had some bad intentions.

After all, having evil thoughts is just an idea. As long as you don't put them into action, the idea cannot be considered a crime.

"Your Majesty, I will always remember the generosity of the elves and the gift of the goddess of life. I don't know how to repay you, but I can only promise that when I go to the battlefield again in the future, I will kill more demons to avenge my mother-in-law. If I am lucky enough to become a god in the future, I will kill a few demon gods to commemorate the goddess."

Eli said this very seriously. He did not dare to guarantee any other unreasonable wishes, but he would definitely fulfill the promises he made.

"I look forward to your performance and I'm optimistic about your future, Eli. Pay your respects to your mothers-in-law again, and then come with me to a place."

The Elf Queen nodded when she heard this. She believed in the promise Eli had made. After all, his previous deeds in the anti-demon battlefield were all proven. He was indeed a good demon killer. She believed that he would be extremely tough when facing the demons.

Afterwards, Eli paid his respects to each of his mothers-in-law one by one, and left a promise to treat their daughters well in front of each grave. The Elf Queen just watched him quietly without saying anything.

After the worship was over, the Elf Queen led Eli away from the cemetery, but they did not go too far. They stayed near Luna's private training ground, which was on the other side of the training ground. There was a small tree hole that might be used for temporary rest. There was only a chair and a very small bed in it, and nothing else.

After the Elf Queen entered, she did not sit down on the bed or chair. Instead, she fumbled out a portrait from her leg ring and pasted it on the wall of the tree hole in front of Eli.

Eli tilted his head and saw that the portrait was of a female knight. He didn't know what kind of ferocious beast she was riding, but it looked quite familiar to Eli.

But the ferocious beast is actually unimportant. The real key is the female knight on the back of the beast. She is so heroic and graceful.

Her long silver-white hair was scattered on her shoulders in a mess, and her beautiful face had a rather ferocious expression. Her bright red lips were tightly bitten, her tall and straight nose was wrinkled, and her blood-red eyes were also fierce. But even with this look, it did not affect her extraordinary charm at all.

Her whole body was wrapped in bright silver armor, so her specific figure could not be seen, but her legs were long under the armor. As she rode astride the ferocious beast, her slightly exposed white calves formed a sharp contrast with the beast's dark skin, increasing the whitening effect while adding a bit of wild beauty to her.

White hair, red eyes, beautiful legs, and a female knight...

I have to say, the person in this portrait really hits his XP system, as if it were a special attack version designed just for him.

Moreover, Eli had seen many stunning beauties, but even Lina, Luna or the Elf Queen, who were at the T0 level in his mind, seemed to be half a point weaker in temperament compared to this female knight.

Of course, they are only slightly inferior in temperament. It is actually difficult to clearly distinguish who is better if we only talk about beauty. After all, they are all extremely beautiful women.

"Who is this? Is this the blind date that Her Majesty the Queen introduced to me?"

As Eli spoke, he moved closer, ready to admire the beautiful photos of his blind date up close. There is no such thing as beauty filters or PS in this world. Although the portrait is not as realistic as a photo, it is still an excellent reference.

Eli didn't ask for the real female knight to be 100% as pretty as the portrait, but he would be willing to agree to the marriage if there was a 70% similarity.

"Don't think that a beautiful woman is your wife when you see her. There are so many beautiful women in the world, can they all be your wives?"

The Elf Queen said unhappily that although this god was not the one she believed in, and his poverty was always mentioned by others, he was still the high and mighty Lord God, and was also something that Eli could covet.
Not to mention Eli, who had just broken through to the semi-god level, even if he became a god right now and ascended to the divine realm, he would not be worthy of the goddess of war. After all, she is the main god. Even if she were to marry him down, she could at most lower her requirements by one level and marry a god. How could a true god who ascended to the pantheon as a mortal be a match for her?
What's more, the Goddess of War is a natural born god, not one of those acquired gods who ascended to the Pantheon from the mortal world. Since the legends of gods began, it has never been heard of that natural born gods have ever married. They have infinite lifespans and exist with the heaven, earth, sun and moon. They do not need offspring to pass on their legacy and there is no need for marriage at all.

Only true gods who became gods from mortal bodies can get married. Many of these gods have descendants with divine blood who remain in the mortal world and are collectively called divine-blood aristocrats. On the surface, they are equivalent to the royal families of various countries, but in reality they are a level more noble.

"Not all beauties can be my wife, but this woman looks pretty good. It's perfect for her to be my wife."

Eli is not completely non-picky. He cannot fall in love with everyone he sees. He also knows to stop when he sees something good. The female knight in the portrait is a particularly good one. Since he has the chance to see her photo, he will naturally take her. It would be a pity to give such a peerless beauty to anyone else if he doesn't have her.

"This is the goddess of war. Do you think you are worthy of her?"

The Elf Queen had not originally planned to reveal the identity of the person in her painting so soon, but Eli's shameless appearance and words made her unable to bear it any longer, so she had to tell him out loud to scare him.

Sure enough, after hearing that this top-notch female knight was actually the goddess of war, Eli fell silent on the spot.

Even if she was the queen of an empire, Eli had some confidence that he could take her down, but He was an unfathomable god...

If it was a real god, it would be fine. At most, he could wait for him for ten or twenty years. It was not impossible for him to ascend to the Temple of the Gods and attack him, but he was the goddess of war...

That was a powerful god who was one of the ten main gods along with the Goddess of Life. Eli was now confident of becoming a god, and even had a little confidence in breaking the limits of mortals and becoming a god. But if he was to ascend to the position of main god and match Him, to be honest, he felt a little timid in his heart.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. I am more or less a follower of the Goddess of War. How could I be a traitor to her? I just saw that the atmosphere was too serious, so I made a joke to liven it up..."

Eli smiled awkwardly and said, it was a pity that his first love today ended before it even started, oh...
