The expression on Kelben’s face was solemn, and his long black beard trembled slightly: "What can I do? The reason they hate ... is not just about the possible crisis in the future, but also because of the Haber family’s borrowing of the path back in the day.
These great rchants and great nobility, including foreign envoys, who among them doesn’t have a shop on Sword Street?
Who would expect to encounter a crazed Dragon Lich that can corrode the magical barrier, causing several families to go bankrupt as a result.
Instead, the dangerous events Deepwater City might face in the future don’t harm their interests much."
Elaströ said indifferently: "It’s a mixture of toxins, more than one person took action, and they had a mutual understanding beforehand, the others were just cover-ups, the most toxic part is the sll.
You better eliminate it quickly!
I’m not interested in continuously maintaining the protective walls... They don’t even worry if the toxic gas seeps down... It seems like it’s just a warning to you.
But if you don’t notice it, it’s best if you die.
Truly... united Deepwater people."
Kelben’s face, hidden by his beard, showed an unmistakably unpleasant look, and with a wave of his right hand, all food on the table disappeared.
Because he tily applied a spell to isolate sound on the high stage, the audience below did not hear their conversation.
However, what Xinbu said was heard by everyone.
Many people stood up and turned their gaze towards a few well-known poison experts.
So inford individuals also looked towards the location of Edna and her group... Seems like they know Nasir’s identity.
However, the envoy from the Wo Empire was the one most looked at, even the little nobles and artisan rchants seated on the backrest chairs in the fan-shaped final rows lifted their feet to gaze at him.
Edna curiously looked around, it seed everyone believed this person would inevitably take action.
Gendilarei turned his head and said with a giggle: "Ah~ if he takes action, no one can bla him... The specialty of the Wo Empire is just folding fans, handicrafts and so paintings... all have specific buyers, and basically, no one would go to rob their shop.
So he didn’t even set up a safer warehouse outside the magical defenses.
Well, now it’s all gone~
Wo Country people are famously poor.
All of Deepwater City knows those little shorties from Wo Country nearly committed seppuku in front of the burned-down shop.
Who can you bla?
That Undead Dragon that went mad after losing its cherished Divine Artifact?
Want to bla it, but can’t beat it, besides, can’t find it either~
Of course, if he acted on his own, he likely wouldn’t have that much courage, but isn’t it obvious that this is a collective cooperation!
The last ti Deepwater City people were this united was 1000 years ago?"
Edna opened the fan in her hand, showing only a pair of eyes smiling like crescents: "Such a united and large tropolis, is truly enviable!"
The atmosphere in the hall at that mont beca exceptionally harmonious and lively, everyone knowingly indulged in the pleasure... even if they couldn’t poison Kelben, they’d infuriate him to death.
Let him host a banquet representing the entire city!
Does Kelben still have the qualification to represent Deepwater City now?
Xinbu opened his mouth with an indifferent expression: "Kelben better not say anything, the people of Deepwater City have too deep a resistance against you.
Elaströ, will you co or..."
"You co..." Elaströ sighed slightly, "After all, there’s competition between Silvermoon City and Deepwater City, they will be more alert to my appearance.
If not for the more oppressive presence of Agleya City nearby, I wouldn’t have appeared today, I can only let Storm co instead."
Then she glanced at Xinbu: If that were the case, Shadow Valley would have to let Hillen co.
The lively and adventurous Storm Silverhand, who manages the Harpist Alliance, if she appeared together with Xinbu, nicknad the Storm Queen, Deepwater City probably wouldn’t need to wait for that unknown ending.
No matter how dissatisfied Elaströ was with Kelben’s behavior, she would never wish for her sisters to beco the culprits of destroying this City of Radiance.
However, among the other two of the Seven Sisters, Dove Falconhand has always disliked taking charge, and Kui Lu, is coincidentally in the form of a Zholar.
Only she can co forward now, to suppress this farce to the lowest level!
Elaströ glanced at Manske... covered in deep sea pearl, Talos has clearly decided not to hide his presence!
What kind of promise did he make that could make Visaron dare to betray so starkly?
The noticeable traces of the Weave on Manske’s body, only the three Lesser Gods of Mystra in the Starry Sky can achieve this.
Elaströ understood very well, this matter definitely involves Visaron.
Azuth and Safras would never treat Mystra this way... As lovers and admirers of Black Eye, even if they have any displeasure with Midnight, they would only sulk in private, and if they had to act, it would only be a gentle hint.
Xinbu didn’t heed Elaströ’s long sighs.
She was always annoyed by handling her empire’s affairs, usually delegating it to her ministers... As an immortal Magic Elector, after witchcraft, no nobles ever tried to seize her position.
Never entangled in daily trivialities, her life’s joy was all about wandering across Toril with saturated Magic Slots... when Elminster was around, she even stayed in Shadow Valley for longer tis to accompany her lover.
At other tis, she preferred playing with the Red Robes scheming beyond Sel, while inspecting those secret vaults of magic weapons scattered across the Ferun Great Land... If so children just getting into magic, especially those who ran away from ho and were neglected by their irresponsible parents, discovered a vault, she would happily play a treasure hunt ga with them, even willing to transform into a fairy dragon.
The Storm Queen sneered twice: "I hope the affairs here can be settled soon, I don’t want to stay in such a filthy place."
She arrogantly crossed her legs, slightly parting the black tight-fitting high-slit gown, revealing a beautiful, shapely, and snow-white leg, her slender and curvaceous figure, jade arms like snowy lotus roots, and her extraordinarily beautiful face adorned with a proud smile, silver hair cascading down to her legs, gently draping onto a thick black wool carpet.
The sound-isolating magic had disappeared, allowing many capable individuals to look up at the high platform and gaze at the two peerless beauties, suddenly realizing... indeed, Xinbu is the most radiant among the Northern Seven Sisters.
Elaströ was also a great beauty, but that noble elegance loses so presence compared to absolute radiance.
However, when encountering the Storm Queen outside, who would still pay attention to her looks?
Either run or face certain death... or at the very least learn how to hide their presence as the only strategy.
Xinbu’s fiery gaze swept over the visitors below, whose expressions varied, her light voice hiding a tinge of provocation: "Well then, everyone... I’m sure you’re all clear about the intentions of myself and Elaströ, and have seen our attitude.
This Three-Ring Mage Miriya Lillia Victoria Manx, before she becos a Transcendent Mage, cannot gain the recognition of the Magic Elector.
The fragntation of the Weave may have caused trendous harm to our lady, reducing her presence even in front of us to the capacity of only a drop of water... but this doesn’t an we can decide for the Weave who will be its future master.
Unfortunately, all us loyal followers can only await ti’s decision as you do."
She turned to glance at Kelben whose face was consistently unpleasant: "As for the Black Staff..."
Kelben solemnly said: "I will ensure myself, until Deepwater City ceases to exist, I will not leave and will fight against any enemies with full strength.
Even for deities, they will not easily retreat, until their last breath."
"Isn’t he still going to run away?" Nasir said maliciously.
Edna gently turned her head to look at Miss Manx, who was openly denied identification... the lady was watching her turn with interest, her eyes constantly circling her jewelry, completely ignoring Xinbu’s strict denial.
After all, these Electors’ harsh words didn’t deny the presence of a fragnt of Mystra on her... even if it’s so small as to be invisible, it’s still the Goddess of Magic.
Soone will always gamble with fate.
"It seems she has so identity issues, but at least her gender is normal..." Edna said slowly, without paying attention to the chaotic venue caused by Kelben’s statent.
Nasir understood the implication, and naturally, all these sharp-witted individuals did too.
But they knew, if Deepwater City truly faced a threat requiring Kelben to fight fiercely, they’d have long escaped, so no one could speak of perishing alongside Deepwater City.
Edna was fundantally uninterested in these dull conversations, the eager anticipation of the banquet raid potentially ending because of the joint appearance of Elaströ and Xinbu made her want to discuss sothing serious instead.
"What’s normal?" Nasir glanced at Edna, "Ah... where you live, you might truly not understand what’s up with those whose gender switches back and forth.
Their personalities truly change with their gender."
Edna looked at him blankly.
"Why are you so surprised? When Coron transford into tree spirits, he still did laundry and cooked for his lover!" Leonard asked with his head tilted, "Don’t the Mithril Elves talk about Coron’s love stories? Aren’t little elves’ bedti stories just those!"
"I rember you... are from the Star Mountain Range in the Supre Forest? Isn’t that all exclusive to Coron’s priests?" Nasir’s eyes widened.
Leonard proudly puffed his chest: "Our Coron doesn’t care how widely those stories spread, as long as they’re not fake tales, sotis he even discusses with priests at new moon celebrations which ones are true and which are exaggerated!"
Edna’s mouth twitched... she absolutely did not wish to learn this aspect of tolerance from the elves.
