The Legacy of the Elves [Arihiko]

Chapter 30 Night Ritual

How can we survive?

This is the question that Wincott Istan, who was wandering on the land of today's Croatia 2000 years ago, estimated in his mind.

As the younger brother of the former Wang Zuo of the Real Demon Kingdom and the former lord of Wincott, Shayman Nila, he was once determined to be the first heir of Lord Wincott.When he was young and vigorous, he once led a few entourages to break into the territory of the neighboring kingdom of Astlan. This move eventually led to the demise of the most powerful country on the mainland at that time, and his reputation spread far and wide.

Later, in the war that changed everything, Shayman died due to overdraft of magic power.Although Shayman had a good relationship with the Demon King during his lifetime, it is a pity that he has not yet discussed marriage, and naturally he has no heirs. In principle, the position of lord should be directly inherited by Istan.

But Wincott's elders didn't do that.For some unknown reason, they finally chose Shayman's distant nephew as the new lord.Poor Estan could only watch as his possessions were taken away by others.

The problem doesn't stop there.The new Wang Zuo happens to be Istan's enemy. His confidants are gradually alienated, and his position and even his life are at stake.In the end, on a certain day, for his own safety, Istan took his entire family and some of his cronies to his new post-Calikeria.This place is on the border of the Real Demon Kingdom, so it can be said that there is no grass growing.Not only that, within a few decades, humans had captured this place, and his motherland had never sent a single soldier.

Disappointed, Istan embarked on a long journey of wandering.

69 years ago, Wincott Gasfaya, the father of Croce Lea, became the leader of Wincott.Overseas Wincott at that time already had settlements in some areas on the Smalong border.The achievement of Gasfaya lies in the successful combination of these scattered settlements into a political power in the actual sense, and has its own army.The embryonic form of Wincotilan - New Calikeria (NewCalikeria), thus formed.

22 years ago, before Gasfaya died, he passed the position of leader to his beloved third daughter, Wincott Croyce Lia.Although when she first came to the throne, due to her physical condition and being a daughter, her ability to govern was questioned, and her too gentle character worried the ministers, but accompanied by the most tragic person in history In the battle against demons, under the leadership of Liya, New Calikeria won the battle of guarding, and in the future, it will bring the harmonious coexistence of humans and demons here. Everyone really recognizes her outstanding talent, and her reputation So it spread across the continent.Just half a year ago, they played hard and soft, and finally signed a treaty with Smallon Jr.—the treaty stipulated that New Calikeria declared self-government, changed its name to Wincotilan, and was subordinate to Smallon Jr. within 18 months. Sovereignty over the land, after which Wincotilan has the right to decide his own path, to continue self-government, or to be independent.

When Estan embarked on Wincott's great wandering journey, he once thought about how to survive.The current Wincott people have completely solved this problem.besides--

faith?

Living in a land far away from the real king, once unable to use magic power, what should I do after eating and drinking enough?What to believe?What to worship?

Still the real king.Aside from being bored, Vencotilan's own religious form—True King Sect appeared, representing the beliefs of the main Vencotilan residents.According to legend, the True King Sect was founded by Yi Sitan who saw the real queen in his dream again.He firmly believes that the real king has not abandoned them, these are just a kind of tribulation, and there are tasks for the Wincotts in the future.The night he dreamed of the true king was determined to be the most important ceremony of the true king sect—the night sacrifice ceremony.

Without faith, there would be no Wincotilan.

Liya is wearing a purple-black evening dress, covered with a white cloak, with a neutral design, wrapping her pretty figure, handing her left hand to Reina, and holding a scepter in her right hand, the whole body is white, embossed There is a snake-like creature, and a huge pure white translucent gemstone is contained in the mouth of the snake on the top.With a firm expression on his face, hiding the gentleness and charm of the afternoon, he is now standing in front of the Wencotilan people gathered under the altar with the noble and elegant lord.There was a burst of cheers from under the altar.

"That's Miss Liya, the lord, right?"

"It's still so beautiful!"

"Even the demons are not all bad!"

"Of course, without Your Excellency, how could we live a good life today!"

A voice as clear as spring water sounded from one side, gentle yet firm, with penetrating power, echoing above the altar. ——

"2000 years ago, under the leadership of the great ancestor Wincott Istan, we, as an excellent branch of the Demon Race, left our homeland, and after being led by 22 leaders, we finally settled down in a strange land and communicated with Brothers and sisters of mankind, we are building a common homeland. Today is the first big ceremony after the establishment of the Winkotilan Autonomous Region. It is a great honor to commemorate the great ancestors and the holy King His Majesty. His Majesty Shibuya Yoshitoshi, the current demon king of the Demon Kingdom, has come in person..."

Speaking of this, there was a commotion under the altar——

"The devil king of the real devil country?"

"Hey, I heard that he advocates peace, and many of the former allies of Smalon have switched to the Real Devil Kingdom."

"Actually, the rule of the Demon Race is many times better than those bastards like Smalong!"

"But the demons here haven't been in touch with them for a long time? Why did he suddenly come?"

Liya waved her hand gently, signaling to be quiet, "..."

"Favourable, when will you be like her, you will look like a devil!" Wolfram played with the blue glass cup in his hand boredly, looking at the lavender liquid in the cup that exudes bursts of fragrance , with his back turned to Li Li and said.

"You seem to admire her appearance very much!"

"Of course." Xiao Bao didn't seem to hear the sourness in the favorable words, and continued to mutter on his own. "It's not like you, a foolish devil king, who makes us courtiers worry about everything..."

"I'm not stupid!"

"What's that? A rookie? Or a wimp?"

"Next, let His Majesty the Demon King come up to speak—His Majesty?" Liya's eyes were still staring straight ahead, of course she would not know the embarrassment of this situation.

"Act... a speech? You haven't told me about this!"

But looking at the anticipation or questioning eyes of the people under the altar, can you say yes, are you not prepared?

It is imperative to catch the ducks on the shelves—hey!I'm not a duck!

"What is that idiot talking about!"

"But it makes sense." Konrad escaped from the group of beauties in Wincotilan at some point, and appeared behind Xiaobao who was frowning slightly.

"Hmph, I didn't notice—wait a minute, Conrad, why do you smell like wine? I remember you haven't been drinking for a long time..."

"I remembered some people, so..."

"Julia?" Another thick baritone voice rang out.

"Akabeludo? You are indeed here."

"Miss Liya's invitation, how could I not come? Ha, you little devil from the Demon Race, I'm not here to fight today, so don't be so nervous?" He also deliberately patted Xiao Bao's shoulder with an angry face.

"Get your hands away! You bastard, even if you don't get in the way, I will never forgive you!"

"Really? Forget it. Really, I haven't grown up at all. Conrad, when you see Miss Liya, you can easily think of someone with that face, right?"

"If I hadn't seen him in this kind of place, I might have made a mistake. I didn't expect that there would be such a similar person as Julia in the world."

"Julia..."

"Do you still hate me?"

"That thing is not important to me anymore, I just don't want to obey the real king absolutely like you, right here, I just worship him as a dead man." Pick up the wine glass beside him, take a sip, " As for you, I really want to compete with you, but not for her."

That night, Acapeludo left very early, Conrad drank a lot, talked a lot, Junda seemed to be missing; Xiaobao was always by the side quietly, without interjection, everything happened around him, It seemed that he was just an outsider and had no intersection with him.If it wasn't for the occasional turning around and finding Xiao Bao's thoughtful look, I'm afraid he would just be a neglected spectator at the banquet after the night festival.

"Wolf, what are you thinking? You have never been so quiet before."

"No...nothing" like a wounded kitten, dodging lightly.

Until late at night, Li and Xiaobao returned to the hotel with Conrad, who seemed to be a little confused.

"Konrad, this guy obviously can't drink, but he wants to drink so much, really."

"I thought he would be good at drinking, but I didn't expect... Eh? Where did Junda go?"

"I didn't see it. I haven't seen his shadow since the night festival."

"So he didn't come back? Oh, why did I forget him? It's all right, him?"

"Don't worry, he's so old, he should be able to find him back. Favorable, you go take a shower first, I'll deal with this guy."

Lili obediently went to the bathroom, leaving Xiaobao alone to send Conrad, who was unable to walk steadily, to the bed. As a result, he lost his footing and fell down in front of the bed. In my arms.

"Hey, Conrad! What are you doing! Let me go!" Just like that, Xiaobao half-kneeled in front of the bed in an extremely uncomfortable position, her body was hugged tightly, her face was as red as a tomato from shame and anger. , yelling at the drunk young man angrily.

"Holding Wolf, it's still so warm..."

"Konrad, you bastard, let me go!"

"Ah, back then you were clinging to my arms all day long, but now you don't want to get close to my little brother at all." The embrace didn't loosen, but tightened even more.

"Hmm... Anyway, let me go first, it's uncomfortable to say it like this..." Reluctantly, I still couldn't match my strength, so I had to beg in my arms, and even my voice softened.

"You're still so thin, you don't know how to take care of yourself, and you haven't grown up yet. How can you rest assured, little brother?"

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Bao quietly fell in Conrad's arms, and did not continue to struggle.Conrad snore sounded soundly, listening to the steady and powerful heartbeat of the person who was once closest to him, he suddenly felt lonely in his heart. For some reason, it was like this all day long, and he always felt that he had lost something.

"Ah... Hey! What are you doing, Wolf!" Lili came out of the bathroom with good timing, just in time to see Xiao Bao lying on Conrad's body—from that angle, the posture was extremely ambiguous, Feeling a fireball burning in his chest, he rushed forward and pulled Xiaobao, who was still in a daze, into his arms, "You must explain this to me clearly, what are you doing?!".

"Lili, listen to me, it's not what you saw, it's Conrad who drank too much... Uh, Lili, don't be angry, it's really not..." Lili really got angry, Xiaobao panicked , looked at the benefit in horror, but no explanation is right.

Seeing those emerald green pupils that look like the bottom of a lake with terrified sincerity, and that anxious look that is about to cry, Li can't bear to continue to be fierce, on the contrary, he still has the urge to laugh.Resisting her laughter, she pretended to be serious and teased him, "But anyway, how can I forgive you? Shouldn't there be some punishment?!"
