Chapter 135. Declaration of Elrond

[-Isn’t the promise different! Don’t you guys even know honor!]

The High Elf Guard Captain, Sophron, shouted with a blood clot in his throat.

Aaron still held her, ignoring his promise to free the queen once the Holy Legion was safe.

I wanted to run at him right away, but I remembered how he treated the queen like an animal in a slaughterhouse, so I couldn’t dare to attack him.

“Do guys who know honor occupy Navik without a cause?”

Aaron said, shaking his head.

Every fight, big or small, needs a cause.

Besides, even if the justification is sufficient, it is natural for those who know honor to announce the reason for starting a war and declare war.

However, the High Elves had no justification for invading Navik, nor did they declare war on the Kingdom of Delor.

The High Elves, who pride themselves on having noble and dignified blood, launched a surprise invasion that only northern barbarians do.

[-that… … .]

“Speak in common language. Don’t be cocky. Do you still have the strength to show off your pride? Cut off one of your fingers?”

Aaron spoke coldly and took out the dagger from his waistband and put it into the queen’s hand.

‘He’s not an ordinary person.’

The Queen’s lips trembled at the cold, sharp feel of her little finger.

Originally, she watched the humans through the veil and tried to let them in when they begged for help.

It was to gain a psychological advantage before talking to them.

But the results were not good.

The young commander was enraged at the sight of the dying soldiers, and single-handedly broke through the veil and easily subdued the queen and her guardsmen.

This was clearly the Queen’s mistake.

If he had listened to Shiffrin from the beginning and opened the curtain, things would have flowed much more smoothly.

“… … There was no ill feeling towards the Kingdom of Delor. The same goes for Shadow Forest. We just wanted to live.”

The queen escaped from her thoughts and spoke in a trembling voice.

[-Yeah, the queen… … .]

[-Queen… … .]

As the common language flowed from the queen’s mouth, the startled guards opened their eyes.

The High Elf Queen is a demigod chosen by the World Tree.

Even during the Great War, she never used a common language unless she was dealing with an emperor or a hero.

The shock was not the only one.

“From now on, everyone should use common language against them.”

[-Ha, but the queen… … .]

“Didn’t you see the interest pass through the veil? This is definitely the time of the World Tree.”

The queen threatening the captain of the guard who was trying to refute something.

Aaron broke through the protective curtain that nothing could pass through like a soap bubble.

I hate to admit it, but this was definitely the revelation of the World Tree.

The guardian deity of Elrond bet the fate of the race on this young silver-haired young man like a rogue.

“… … .”

When the name of the World Tree was mentioned, the guards finally seemed to understand it and became silent.

“I’m glad you know now. queen.”

Aaron smiled and grabbed the dagger.

The queen would know better that his breaking through the veil had nothing to do with the World Tree, but it didn’t matter anyway.

By mentioning the world tree, she gave Aaron’s action justification and even defended her authority.

It has become a picture of cooperating in accordance with the will of the World Tree, rather than cooperating out of intimidation and fear.

‘Still, a queen is a queen. My head is working fine.’

Aaron silently watched the queen trimming her hair.

Although she was stubborn, she wasn’t so stupid that she couldn’t figure out the situation.

Thinking of the people who died because of her, I want to blow off a few fingers, but it wasn’t good to keep stepping on the head of a tribe when he came in bowed like this.

“Little human. What should I call you?”

As Aaron’s spirits softened, the queen quickly regained her composure.

Aaron said, correcting his awkward posture.

“Call me Aaron.”

“okay. Aaron. I will forget all the rudeness you committed a moment ago. So please forget our mistakes too.”

Tinuviel said, covering the bloodstains on his stomach with his hand.

Aaron was the first in the history of the continent to touch a high elf queen with a sword.

If it was peacetime, it would be a serious crime that would have happened a hundred times, but now Elrond has done something wrong, so it was a good idea to turn a blind eye to it.

‘Look at him?’

Aaron twitched his eyebrows.

Now, the Queen was trying to somehow regain the initiative that had been passed on to Aaron.

If he sympathized with her here, the capture of Navik, the raid on the Shadow Forest, and the attempt to steal the water of life would be all innocent.

“mistake… A mistake.”

Aaron smiled and stroked his chin.

Klopp. The queen involuntarily swallowed dry saliva.

I’ve lived for over a thousand years and seen countless human groups, but I couldn’t read anything in this man’s eyes.

“The Queen considers it a mistake to take over Navik without warning and brutally murder my people, the Dark Elves.”

His face, which had been as calm as a lake, slowly began to contort.

The queen opened her eyes wide and shook her head hurriedly.

“No, I mean… … .”

“All armies ready for battle!”

Aaron looked back and shouted before the queen could finish her words.

“Prepare for battle!”

Then, the holy corps lined up behind him recited his words in unison and grabbed their weapons.

“Hey, what are you doing!”

The captain of the guards, taken aback by the sudden battle posture, frowned and shouted.

Aaron grinned at him, then looked back at the Queen.

“From now on, you will have to choose your words carefully. I am human too, so sometimes I make mistakes.”

He fidgeted with the hilt, stressing the word mistake.

‘I brought a wolf cub into the house.’

The Queen’s eyebrows trembled at the sight of him exuding a terrifying spirit.

[-Everyone get ready to protect Elrond!]

As the atmosphere turned unusual, the captain of the guard issued an order in Elvish.

Soon, the Royal Guard following him and the Elrond defenders who had helped the Holy Legion retreat prepared themselves for battle.

“It is a very low threat. Did you think I would be swayed by such words?”

After staring at Aaron for a while, the queen raised an eyebrow and sneered.

“Oh, do you have a corner to believe in something?”

Aaron asked with a laugh as if he was having fun.

the queen spoke.

“You know one, you don’t know the other. If you attack us, you will die with us.”

It was true that the troops remaining in Elrond could not defeat the Holy Legion.

But that was not a reason for Aaron to bow his head.

If the High Elves are annihilated, the World Tree will lose its power, and if the World Tree’s protective shield disappears, they too will be trampled on by the Orcs outside.

“Did you come here to co-destroy us? Do you think the Church of Light will stand still if this many troops die in vain due to your wrong judgment?”

“… … .”

“I thought he had extraordinary hair, but now I see that he is a child full of bravado. It’s really good.”

When Aaron didn’t answer, the queen continued her momentum.

But Aaron, despite the obvious insult, just stared at her without batting an eye.

“Why are you silent? Have you even lost the will to refute?”

After a while, the queen asked again.

Aaron smiled and shook his head.

“no. It’s fun to see him excitedly say that he’s got the momentum. It’s a pity that it’s already over. It was a good spectacle.”

“… … what?”

“I’m sure you’re mistaken, but the World Tree isn’t something only you can take care of.”

Aaron pointed to Raven and the ghost squad standing next to him.

“The elves are here too.”

Aaron pointed to the side with an expressionless expression.

The Ghost Crew, including the dark elf lord Raven.

Although they have different skin colors and cultures, they were able to take care of the World Tree enough as a fairy race like the high elves.

“Nonsense. they are different from us How could those who were imprisoned for a thousand years save the world tree… … .”

“You abandoned the Dark Elves, but the World Tree did not. The proof is that the water of life has taken root in their hometown. The frog in the well is you, not them. High Elf.”

“… … .”

This time, the queen became Hapjuki.

Aaron continued talking to her, who only opened her mouth.

“We can save the World Tree and drive out the Orcs without you.”

Serureung-

Aaron said with the same face and pulled out the cosmos he had put in again.

The sharp tip of the sword touched the neck of the queen.

“If you are not willing to cooperate, please accept your fate with grace.”

“… … .”

The queen looked at Aaron with mixed eyes.

She knew from experience that his words and actions were not mere bravado.

What you just said was an ultimatum of sorts.

If he crosses the line one more time here, Elrond will truly walk the path of destruction.

“… … What words do you want to come out of my mouth?”

Tinuviel eventually handed out a blank check.

The words she said to somehow gain the upper hand drove her deeper into the pit.

The more I speak, the more I feel my breath getting tighter.

It was as if he could see through everything she was thinking and what she was going to say next.

“What do you want? No words needed, just… … .”

Aaron retrieved the sword as if he had been waiting, then rummaged through his pockets and took out a sheet of parchment.

“All you have to do is sign here.”

“… … What is this?”

Tinuviel’s white face turned black.

* * *

『The Declaration of Elrond』

– Since Elrond, the high elf kingdom, has lost its ability to defend itself due to the outcry, the following authorities are transferred to Aaron, who has contributed to defending the kingdom.

From noble mtl dot com

1. The right to extract resources from the Great Forest

2. Wartime operational control

3. Magical weapon technology cooperation and rental of finished products

4. … …

10. Permanent border opening for residents of Death Landing and joint development of specialized commercial districts

‘It must have happened.’

After reading the contents of the parchment, Tinuviel let out a deep sigh.

This was a manifesto in words, but it was tantamount to an unfair contract that made Elrond a vassal of Death Landing.

As soon as I was asked what I wanted, I took it out, so it seemed that I had predicted and prepared for this situation a long time ago.

“Do you like it?”

As Tinuviel’s face rotted away, Aaron smiled and asked.

Tinuviel stunned, corrected his expression, and returned the parchment.

“It’s a piece of paper that’s not even worth looking at. Even if I die right here, I will never accept it.”

“Hmm, are you saying it’s okay for Elrond to perish?”

“… … Don’t think that we will easily succumb to you if we choose to perish. A cornered mouse will bite a cat too.”

“You are stronger than you think.”

Aaron pursed his lips at the queen’s determined demeanor, then took out a small quill and wrote something at the bottom of the proclamation.

“Then how about this one?”

“… … .”

Tinuviel stared at the parchment Aaron held out with a hard face.

In addition to the original content, the Declaration contained one more clause.

– The above clause is only valid if Aaron Oddhaken directly healed the World Tree, otherwise it is invalid.

“directly… Heal?”

After reading the additional clause, Tinuviel looked at him with a puzzled face.

The World Tree has already consumed a lot of strength to stop the Orcs.

In order to restore lost power, thousands of the Fairy Queen’s tears must be poured out or one of the waters of life uprooted and offered as a sacrifice.

Just by hearing this, I can’t believe I’m going to do something so far myself.

I couldn’t understand what kind of confidence he had in writing such a clause.

“Wouldn’t the opinion of the Queen and the villagers change a bit if I showed them how to heal the World Tree with my own hands?”

“… … What else are you plotting?”

“It’s a conspiracy. As you can tell, I’m not here to fight. I am here to help you.”

“… … .”

Tinuviel glared at Aaron with eyes filled with suspicion.

But Aaron just smiled and waited for her answer.

“good night. Instead, you must go alone to the place where the World Tree is. With all arms disarmed. Will you accept it?”

After thinking for a long time, the queen finally opened her mouth.

As if waiting, Aaron released the Cosmos from his waistband and handed it to Raast.

“Let’s go.”
