Silence.
Incomparable silence.
Everyone present stared blankly at the sleepy elf sitting on the cloud, and a question popped up in their minds:
Who is this person? ? ?
Feeling the gazes of the people around him, Kocot also reacted, stuck out half of his tongue, scratched the back of his head, and said with a smile:
"Oh, sorry, I forgot."
"You are now the emperor. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. I should call you Your Majesty."
Others were extremely confused.
This familiar tone, and the feeling in this sentence.
It seems that... the person who came is a big shot.
Aubrey smiled, and it was completely impossible to tell that he was a majestic emperor.
"Senator Kocot."
"Remember the last time we met, my father was still alive at that time."
Senator... Senator?
Another one?
This group of people immediately looked at Kocot, feeling a burst of surprise in their hearts.
The most important thing is that she was brought here by Leah Clevner.
How many councillors does the Clevner family have?
Some people paid further attention to His Majesty's words.
His Majesty said... when they last met, the previous emperor had not passed away?
That means... His Majesty and she are old acquaintances.
That's at least more than 30 years.
After all, Emperor Aubrey ascended the throne in his twenties.
How old is this councillor? ? ?
Aubrey said slowly:
"With your status, you deserve a seat... but now it seems that you don't need it."
Aubrey meant that she followed Leah and followed the vassals of his ministers.
However, this abandoned elf obviously did not realize the emperor's deep meaning. He just yawned, stretched, looked at the clouds under him, and said in a trance:
"Yeah, it's really not necessary."
"But you don't have to call me councillor. I'm working for Victor now."
...
! ?
After a moment of silence, the people in the entire palace were instantly shocked.
"What!? A member of the Mage Council actually works for Victor?"
"What ability does Victor have to make the former member do this willingly?"
"This member is an old acquaintance of your Majesty!"
Everyone began to chatter in the hall, and for a while, the entire palace became a little chaotic.
As a result, the more shocking thing was still to come. The emperor said as if he was referring to something:
"Victor, this kid, even the next Elf Queen has to work for him?"
The next Elf Queen! ?
The heavyweight news was too dense, and for a moment, the nobles present did not react.
The entire palace seemed to have become a place for the two to chat. The words thrown out one after another were like bombs thrown into the bottom of a calm lake, shaking up waves tens of meters high.
Victor was obviously not in the palace, but every sentence, every word.
All pointed to Victor.
At this moment, everyone understood.
The elf in front of them was actually a queen who was about to ascend the throne.
No wonder she looked so young, but her mature words made her seem older than the emperor.
Because the longevity of elves cannot be faked.
Even an elf over 300 years old has the same youthful vigor as a human teenager.
Elves are very mysterious beings. They can feel the powerful natural energy and are even more likely to receive the blessing of gods than humans.
Even some people who are favored by elves are very lucky.
This special existence lives in secret and is difficult to be detected, not to mention that someone dares to capture elves.
This behavior is likely to bring about a huge disaster.
At this time, the limelight of the eldest prince's return was completely overshadowed by the appearance of this elf.
She made everyone feel a little unreal.
"There is no way, I can't help myself."
Kokot complained a little annoyed, and then seemed to realize something.
"Oh, are you talking about something? I'm disturbing you. I'll shut up."
"Keep talking. I'm just here to protect this girl."
Kokot pointed at Leah beside him, lay down on the cloud, and went to sleep.
However...
At this moment, no one knew what to say.
The eldest prince was still kneeling on one knee, and almost everyone had forgotten about him.
This should have been a glorious moment for the eldest prince.
Realizing that everyone's eyes were looking at her, Leah finally took action.
She smiled and bowed to His Majesty, slowlySaid:
"Sorry, Your Majesty, my brother is preparing for the lessons for Her Royal Highness the Princess, so I am here to replace him."
There is nothing wrong with this statement. It was the Emperor who asked Victor to be the Princess's teacher. He can't really find any fault with not coming now because of the Princess.
What's more.
Victor Clevenna is a current senator.
A prince alone is not enough to invite a senator.
Leah turned her head and looked at the eldest prince who was kneeling on one knee, her eyebrows slightly raised, but her tone was full of the most sincere congratulations.
"Your Royal Highness is famous, and the news that you killed the dragon has spread throughout the empire, and everyone knows it."
"My brother also said that you have half the prestige of Your Majesty back then."
But many people heard the sarcasm in her words.
Half the prestige.
Isn't it just half?
Aubrey was able to kill a dragon by himself at the age of seventeen, and you are over thirty, and you have to lead an army...
Maybe you haven't even reached half of it yet.
This is a bit hurtful.
However, Leah didn't care at all, she covered her mouth and chuckled, and continued:
"Your Highness."
"You are really a hero."
Alberni still knelt on one knee in the same place, but others could only see his still straight back.
No one knew what the eldest prince was thinking, but everyone knew it.
This glory that belonged to the eldest prince was finally destroyed after the arrival of the Clevner family.
Aubrey waved his hand, looking at Albany who was still kneeling on one knee with his head bowed, and said lightly:
"Get up, Albany."
"After a long journey, you should go back and rest."
"...Yes, father."
Albany slowly stood up, dragged his clanging armor, and slowly walked out of the palace.
And Oweser looked at his brother's departure, but he was not very happy in his heart.
At this moment, accompanied by the emperor's attitude.
Many nobles understood something in a trance.
I don't know when, the Cravenna family is no longer limited to their status as earls.
With all kinds of titles, they seem to have no need to play the so-called house with these princes like ordinary nobles like them.
...
"Ha! Cool!"
Liya took a glass of wine and drank it in big gulps.
In the dim tavern, Liya sat at a wooden table, holding an oversized wine glass and shouted.
After one glass, her face was already ruddy.
Liya had never drunk alcohol before. As a businessman, she needed to keep a clear mind at all times.
However, today, she really felt what comfort was.
Those ugly nobles looked shocked one after another.
The pleasure of not having to communicate hypocritically with these guys anymore.
She didn't even have to care about the prince's attitude, even if she mocked the eldest prince in front of His Majesty.
Of course, Liya knew very well why she could do all this.
She had a brother who was upright.
But the heroes beside her could not be forgotten. Liya raised her glass and said loudly.
"Thanks to you, Kokot, you should drink a sip too."
Kokot sat opposite Liya with a large wine glass in his arms, looking at the large glass of wine in front of him with some distress.
She had never drunk this kind of wheat wine before.
As an elf, even in the tribe, she drinks fruit wine made from nectar and delicious fruits.
Leah looked at Kokot with a smile, then raised her glass and took another sip of wine for herself.
Yes, this is a leverage.
When Victor asked her to bring Kokot with her, Leah understood Victor's intention.
As a former councillor, Kokot's value is not just her former status as a councillor and her current fourth-level strength.
Having stayed in the Mage Council for decades, even if Kokot is a pig, she has countless followers.
What's more, she is an elf.
With Kokot by her side, Leah can completely ignore the ugly faces of those nobles, and even the eldest prince whom she hates the most can be ridiculed.
As for why she hates it.
I haven't even met you, and you want to marry me?
Liya didn't want to be a tool for the marriage, and when she got the background that could ignore the prince, she would use this momentum to the extreme.
These, Victor didn't even need to teach her.
Soon, Liya drank too much, felt that her mind was not clear, and her eyes became a little blurry.
Her words began to become a little random.
In the end, she forgot where she was, fell on the wine table, and fell asleep.
She didn't even careA hand was placed on her shoulder when she realized it.
"How much did she drink?"
Victor's voice sounded faintly, and Kocot yawned while holding a large wine glass.
"Only two glasses, to be honest, her alcohol tolerance is not as good as mine."
Victor looked at the eight empty glasses in front of Kocot and raised his eyebrows.
"You are too modest."
Kocot had been yawning frequently, and her exercise today had obviously exceeded the standard. She continued there:
"Since you are here, I will go back first."
The clouds outside floated and floated into the private room. Kocot fell headfirst on the clouds, and the clouds flew her out of the room along the window.
Victor looked at the drunk Leah and thought about how to take her back.
Looking at Leah who was completely collapsed on the table, he finally gave up the idea of teleporting someone away.
Teleporting someone requires the other person to be clear-headed and clearly know that he is being teleported.
Otherwise, it is very likely that she will fall into a random void in the turbulence of space.
He tried to help Leah up, but it was obvious that she was in a state where she could not walk normally.
So, he could only bend down, put Leah's hands on his shoulders, and carried her on his back.
Without the shoulder, Vega had no place to stand.
It could only stand on Victor's head and grabbed his hair into a bird's nest.
"...Victor?"
Liya's voice sounded a little doubtful, but she soon got a response that made her feel at ease.
"Yeah."
Liya, who was carried on his back, squinted slightly and smiled foolishly on his broad back.
"I know...hiccup, you want me to vent your anger, so you let...Kokot follow me."
"Thank you."
Victor did not answer, and put a bag of Geo on the table, and then pinched a wind-controlling magic in his hand to make his body extremely light.
He just carried Leah out of the window.
Under the night sky, Victor took Leah and flew steadily towards home.
His speed was just right, and under the magic, there was not even a trace of wind around.
Then, Victor clearly heard the girl's soft murmur behind him:
"Brother... when we were young."
"Why don't you... like me?"
Huh...
The magic seemed to be less stable.
Gradually, the long-lost wind passed by Victor's ears.
Like an answer, like silence.
