Pandora stopped for a mont and emptied her glass of wine before continuing.
''The royal family could have dispatched an elite to get rid of this tumor but by doing so they will earn the resentnt of the other hidden group of Dark Elves. While not all of them were like this, by directly eliminating this the others could join hands and rebelled.
This is sothing that must happen, especially with a lot of spies hidden in the empire waiting for the smallest chance to ignite an internal war, so the only solution left is to borrow external help. For example, hiring a group of powerful adventurers to investigate the recent dungeon that appeared.
This group of mismatched adventurers would surely attire attention and the prideful dark elves would attack, this group will then respond in self-defense killing them as they carried their mission.
Our real mission is to get rid of the powerful dark elves and if we could by mistake find so connection with so external force while carrying out our mission, it will be a plus as this could give the royal family the perfect excuse to clean this place. Is my analysis wrong?"
''Not all.'' Maria imdiately responded with a smile after Pandora's lengthy explanation.
''It is exactly as era, I an Pandora explained. We are here to clean up, to reduce the probability of this city stabbing back the others when things will beco serious.
The dice have been cast, what's left is to wait for the enemy to play in our hands and I have the feeling that it won't be long since a real powerhouse will appear.'' Sakuya added before she empire her glass and let out a satisfied sound.
While it was harder for one to get drunk as one level goes higher you could still enjoy drinking and the wine brewed in this place is one of the finest on the continent.
Gracier, Luna, and Saeko both nodded as they shared the sa thought as the rest. Just as they were about to order again Gracier threw her head back, her eyes passed through the door and locked into the street before her lips curled up to form an evil grin.
Saeko shuddered when she saw this grin while Sakuya said.
''As expected a big shot ca.''
Gracier exchanged a look with Maria, the latter nodded before Gracier disappeared leaving the others to catch up.
anwhile, outside, the bustling streets beca deserted. No one was brave enough to obstruct the dark elf army at this mont. A woman gripped the seven-headed snake whip, bit her lip, and glared fumingly. No one dared to go against the matriarch. They curled up by the side in fear, terrified that the matriarch would vent her frustration out on them.
Light green, flowing hair hangs over a full, lively face. Round golden eyes, set high within their sockets, watch readily over the families they've looked after for so long.
Several moles are spread unusually across her forehead and leave a captivating mory of her adventurous love life.
This is the face of Nilerea Nightgaze, a true warden among dark elves. She stands towering above others, despite her delicate fra. She is after one of the matriarchs.
Nilerea didn't want to stand out among the group. Just like any other matriarch, she hoped to observe the battle from a safe distance, while other families tossed about with one another below. However, the best-laid plans of mice and n often went awry. Nilerea didn't expect her youngest daughter to be so foolish as to probe the other party's strength, leading to this big disaster.
'If that b*tch were here, I swear to inflict eternal pain on her, banish her entirely, and turn her into a minceat!'
But it was a pity that the corpse of her naive daughter was nowhere to be seen, so Nilerea couldn't even vent her frustration on it.
Even though she was itching to chop her naive daughter into minced at to feed wild creatures, what should be done had to be done. If she didn't want her na to be taken off the book by the council and to lose her status as a matriarch, she would need to do sothing to secure the status and dignity of her family.
That was why Nilerea had no choice but to mobilize all her forces. This ti, not only were the elite forces of her family involved, but all mbers were also gathered. This was a little trickery of dark elf families. After their daughters grew up, matriarchs would allow them to establish their own families.
Not only could the newer families replace them in eliminating threats, but they also ensured the stability of the matriarchs' dominance. As a matter of fact, in this City, almost more than half of the families were supported by and connected to the top matriarchs.
This ti, she didn't avoid any suspicion to send them out, which went to show how ambitious this matriarch of the fourth family was… Or perhaps, just how arrogant she was… It was tough to figure out whether the thought of her implicating the entire city to be buried with her even existed in her mind.
Humans slave crowded the streets as they marched in large strides. So wielded shields before them, while the rest, the burly one behind them clutched hamrs. A fully-equipped dark elf army occupied the rear, guarding the advanced female mage among them. This was the standard formation for the dark elves.
They wouldn't put themselves in danger but instead manipulate a large number of slaves to diminish the enemies' strength before dealing the lethal, final blow themselves. Due to that reason, the dark elves flourished the whips in their hands to spur on the creatures before them. Under such intimidation, the human slaves naturally had no way of resisting.
The only output for them was to take it out on the enemies and use their deaths to prove their existence in this world.
