Chapter 367
367 The Second Coming
Selma Payne’s POV:
I hoped to leave as soon as possible and rush to the Elf Forest to solve the problem, but in my heart, I also hoped that I could wait until the child’s baptism was over before leaving.
My conflicting thoughts tore me apart, but this problem was quickly resolved. Tracy and the werewolf grandmasters suggested that I temporarily delay my child’s baptism because he had yet to show signs of developing into a human form.
On the day of the baptism, the child had to appear in public no matter what, so one could imagine what kind of uproar this image would cause.
I also had an inexplicable feeling that this child’s development would not follow the path of ordinary children, so I agreed.
Just as I expected, the elves immediately understood our hint and sent an invitation to help us. They asked us to help the elves quickly eliminate the wanderers in the Elf Forest.
The elven government mainly retained most of the framework of the Elf King’s reign. They were in a neutral state, neither inclined to the legitimate heir, Prince Chris, nor inclined to the powerful temporary Alliance of the Western city-states nor accepted the application for a change of new political parties.
It carefully maintained the balance between the major forces because it also knew that it represented the Orthodox of the elven race, and its opinion was seen as the last order of the Elf King to the outside world. Once they were inclined to a certain force, the other dissatisfied forces would immediately start a civil war to seize power.
Their harrowing situation meant they didn’t have much time to spare for our foreign neighbors. Of course, they would send people to monitor our movements, but that was all. They didn’t even expect us to be able to annihilate the entire Azazel party in the Elf Forest. It would be a blessing if we kept them in check and didn’t make the already dangerous situation even more chaotic.
The day we set off was a sunny summer day. The bright sun and the endless white clouds made me feel as if I had returned a few years ago, back to the day when I was about to set off for the Rocky Mountains.
Back then, we were full of hope and didn’t know what was waiting for us. But now, we were still full of confidence and would overcome any difficulties ahead.
As members of the ‘diplomatic corps’, in addition to the action team of various members, there were also Maxine, Dorothy, Master Hayley, and Eve.
As a general, Aldrich’s identity was too sensitive. No matter what, the elves would never allow him to swagger into their territory. Thus, he had to secretly lead another team to lurk in the Spring Rain Pack. If anything happened to us in the Elf Forest, he could come to our aid as soon as possible.
Emma was originally part of the diplomatic corps, but she withdrew herself.
“I don’t have powerful martial strength, nor do I have sharp intelligence. I won’t be of any help in the Elf Forest,” she said these self-deprecating words, but her eyes shone with confidence.
“But I’ll help you keep a close eye on the families in the Lycan pack, who each have their ulterior motives. Whether my blood relatives or strangers, all their conspiracies will be snuffed out in the cradle, and they won’t cause you any worries.”
And so, at my request, Emma was transferred to my father’s secretarial group. It was one of the organizations closest to the center of power, but its blood-related nature with the royal family also firmly marked its members as a royal faction. This meant that Emma had officially drawn a clear line with the Evaria Family, but she had never regretted it.
“I’m saving my family,” she said to me. “Greed and shortsightedness are pushing them to the execution ground. I don’t know if I can pull them back from the cliff of destruction, but in any case, I have to keep a little hope of survival, at least.”
In short, after everything is settled, we would finally officially enter the Elf Forest.
The people sent by the Elven Capital CIty to welcome us were well-behaved, and it was clear that the government had already done its best to show us its sincerity. There were also many old acquaintances, such as Kaya and her third patrol regiment.
Her arrogance when we first met had long turned into nothingness and flowed into the spring breeze. Although she still had a serious and beautiful face, the fatigue and helplessness in it could not be concealed.
We only exchanged a few pleasantries. Our experiences in the four cities of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter immediately warmed us up and created a friendship that shouldn’t exist between werewolves and elves.
Along the way, she was silent, as if the arrogant female warrior from before was just a ridiculous dream.
Autumn City had become an empty city. In such an eventful autumn, no mayor had the energy to take over this dead land that had been ransacked. Naturally, nature had taken back its ownership of the land. Plants and animals grew and multiplied without restraint. They were naive and chaotic, alert and blind to outsiders.
We took a short break here. I asked Kaya in private, “You look very tired. Did something happen during this time?”
She only sighed softly and answered me with silence.
