Chapter 933: What the Royal Court Sees
"I'm a little unaccustomed to the stupid dragon without it......," Latinia muttered as she looked around.
When she had become accustomed to the black dragon around her, he disappeared all of a sudden, and I have to say that it is impossible for anyone to get used to it.
Joanna sits nicely in her birth mother's arms, but that's just the appearance, she's actually multithreading—a skill she's just recently learned.
While maintaining this side of the body, she operated on the Winder City's mystery, which she couldn't do before.
"When he used to be there, you thought he was annoying, but now that he's gone, you say you're not used to ......it," the maid took the time to raise her head and glance at the goddess, shaking her head and sighing, "Who knows what you're thinking!"
"Women are fickle!" Seeing that the maid was about to say something again, Latinia hurriedly added: "The goddess too!"
"Sera, I'm back! Did you miss me?"
At this moment, the office door was pushed open, and Cervantes' brisk voice came in, and Latinia, who had just been a little proud, suddenly sank her face again.
Looking at her like this, the maid couldn't help but laugh and quipped, "Latinia, what did you say just now?"
With a dark face, Latinia silently watched her daughter break free from her arms and fly in the direction of the office door, turning her head and snorting softly: "I didn't say anything!"
After laughing for a while, Serena supported her chin with one hand, looked at Cervantes, and asked, "Seth, how does it feel to go to the Elven Court this time?"
The black dragon holding Joanna in one hand was stunned when he heard this, rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, and summarized what he had seen and heard in the past few days: "Overall, it doesn't feel very good, the cultural differences between elves and humans are too great, and there may be a lot of trouble if you want to cooperate with them further, but if you look at it from the perspective of commercial value alone, it may be a good partner to work with." ”
Latinia glanced at Cervantes, she was not too surprised by this, the black dragon was just not very fond of using his brain, but in fact he was very smart, or rather, this group of dragons was easy to deal with by any clan except the white dragon.
"And how does the elf react to our mission?" said the maid, bowing her head again, preoccupied, and asked as she looked at the papers in her hand.
Cervantes sat down next to Latinia with Joanna in his arms, and when he heard this question, he thought for a while, "Maybe it's because the people of the mission are a little different from the humans in the elves' perception, even if there is no propaganda, the average elven civilians show too much disgust with us. After learning that the mission was from our principality, according to the mission's report, the elven civilians treated them much better, and some elves even invited certain people to enjoy their food together...... In general, the attitude of the elven commoners towards our principality is quite kind, which should be due to the continuous propaganda of the elven king, as well as the credit of those elven slaves who were rescued!"
The people of the Principality of Sorrowful Wind have been polluted by magic elements, and they have quite a lot of demonic bloodline, and during that period, almost all the people who have grown up in this land since childhood have the phenomenon of 'bloodline awakening', so that most of the people in the principality now have a little beast characteristics in appearance, and only the immigrants and the very few native residents who do not show obvious characteristics are more like humans in the impression of elves.
This is a minus in human society, but when it comes to elves, it has become a plus, I have to say, quite ironic.
"You've probably already visited the plant factory over there, what do you think?" the maid continued.
Joanna, who was tired of playing with her mother, raised her head and pulled her father's sleeve again, Cervantes lowered her head, looked at her righteous daughter with a smile, and continued: "There are indeed some different places, elves rely more on 'nature' than us, if we are 'processing', then they are 'improvement' - research and development on the basis of the original, but it cannot break through certain limitations, but there is also an advantage, that is, it is convenient and fast, and it can even be described as 'simple'!" Even if it's just an ordinary elven civilian, as long as he learns how to use some natural spells and has new ideas, then he can try it. Although this method of production is quite slow, it is in line with the characteristics of the elf race, and the elf king is really a rare talent!"
Elves are the kind of people who force them to do things, but if they follow their nature, if they have free time, they may be able to help.
This race has taken the word 'free and loose' to the extreme, and it's no wonder they've fallen into the state they are in now.
"What do you think of the Elven King, the Council of Elders, the Legion of the Guards, and the Elven Commoners about our people going to live in the Elven Court, or if the Elves want to live on our side?"
Even Latinia stopped being petty and looked at Cervantes.
As if sensing something, Joanna looked curiously at her two mothers, then at her father, and fell silent.
"Let's put it this way......," Cervantes pondered, "the Elven King is supportive of this, and I have been in contact with the Council of Elders, and although I am not too disgusted, they are opposed to this matter, and think that they need to know more about it, and the Guards Legion does not support or oppose it, or rather, it is mixed between support and opposition, and the elven civilians are ......"
At this point, Cervantes pursed his lips and sighed, "They have a good impression of us, but they hate 'humans' very much, so when the people of the mission mention this, they get a little emotional, and obviously, they don't like the question. ”
That is, there is no hope...... The maid was a little disappointed, all the elves agreed with the position of 'Elf King', but at the same time, not all of them would obey the Elven King's command.
Generally speaking, only elves who have a direct subordinate relationship with the Elven King will obey the Elven King's command, such as the Guards and some other Elven soldiers.
The maid frowned and thought about it, and Latinia took advantage of this time to hurriedly ask, "So are they willing to do business with us?"
She really wanted to know the answer to this question now, it has always been the elven merchant who has been doing business between Wende City and the elven court, the human merchant's footsteps have never involved the elven court, although as long as there is a business behavior, she can obtain a certain amount of divine power, but as long as the human merchant cannot be involved in the elven royal court for a day, she will not be able to improve her godhead.
Latinia has always wanted to make 'trade' her primary priesthood, even if it's dangerous, and if there is a crisis in trade, her divinity may be lowered.
But compared to the incomplete priesthood of 'wealth', which has been divided among many gods, the priesthood of 'trade' can make her a 'powerful divine power' existence!
Moreover, the 'wealth' priesthood would imprison her in the world of Assatom, but if it was the 'trade' priesthood, once the world of Assatom intersected with other worlds, then she would be able to go further.
"They're more than welcome!"
Cervantes gave a positive answer, and at this time, he remembered what the elf king had said to him, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion: "The elf king said that elves don't need money, but elves do—this is probably the truest portrayal of the elves today!"
Elves can be self-sufficient, even if there is a transaction, most of them can barter, but the elves can't, if they want to integrate into the current continent of Slo Mendes, and if they want to occupy a place on the current continental stage, they need to have a certain right to speak, whether it is force, culture or economy......
