《In the story"The Sword Dance of the Elf", the root of everything seems to come from the"betrayal" four years ago.

Why did Rubia, who had a promising future and was called the"Elf Princess", betray the Elf King?

This is probably something that everyone cannot figure out.

But at this time, Chu Mu and others had an opportunity to question the person involved face to face.

"It’s better to give this opportunity to Claire."

Chu Mu did not ask directly, but looked at the girl who was hugging her sister tightly.

"After all, you have been waiting for this day for too long"

"……Um."

Claire, whose eyes were a little red and swollen, raised her eyes and looked at Rubia.

"Sister, tell us the truth.……"

"What is the reason that makes you have to betray the Fire Elf King?"

Hearing her sister's question, Rubia sighed softly.

Her lips trembled slightly, as if she recalled something unbearable.

"Even if I say it, you will never believe it"

"If I hadn't witnessed such a reality with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that such a thing could exist in this world.……"

"Sister, no matter what you say, I am willing to believe you!"

"Claire, you……"

Rubia, who was stared at by Claire with sincere eyes, shook her head helplessly.

"That’s all"

"Four years ago, the reason why I betrayed the Elf King was because——"

"The king has gone crazy"

……

As the newly appointed Elf Princess, the young Rubia once believed that everything she did to serve the Elf King was for the prosperity of the empire and the happiness of the people.

The great Elf King will also feel happy because of her service, thus blessing all living beings.

This kind of belief lasted until one day, and then collapsed in an instant

"Until that day? Claire asked in confusion.

Rubia rubbed her brows, trying to suppress the roiling anger in her heart.

"It happened half a year after I became the Fire Elf Princess……"

"At that time, a small town located on the border of the empire was wiped off the face of the earth."

After hearing this, Claire whispered in surprise.

Linsilei on the side frowned and asked tentatively.

"Could it be that what you are talking about is the Dilus Tribulation incident?"

"That's right."

Disaster Elf Ji nodded and responded.

"That destroyed town was indeed called Diluz"

"But... I heard that it was not my sister's fault?"

Claire murmured to herself, seeming to be excusing her sister.

"I heard at that time that thanks to my sister’s sleepless prayers and Kagura dance, the anger of the Fire Spirit King was calmed down."

"Well...can I say something?"

At this moment, Chu Mu interrupted the conversation between several girls.

"Could you please explain to me, an inexperienced person, what is the Tribulation of Dilus?"

Chu Mu really didn't know anything about this part that involved detailed settings.

"Also, after this incident happened, the empire issued a hush-hush order, so it was normal for Chu Mu not to know about it."

Alice, who is also from a noble family, summarized the matter simply and clearly.

In short, it was a small town called"Dilus" that offended the Fire Elf King, so three consecutive Rains of fire fell from the sky three days and nights, and eventually the entire town was reduced to nothing.

"So...what's the reason?"

Claire whispered with a pale look.

"To make the Elf King so angry, what serious things did the people of that town do?……"

"It's just because... the people in that town offered too few sacrifices (bfac)."

Rubia replied calmly.

"That year there was a long drought on the border of the empire, so there wasn't enough harvest to satisfy the Elf King's sacrifice, so he offended it."

"Is this, just because of such a trivial matter?!"

This is the first time even Alice and Linselei have heard of this kind of thing.

"Yes, just because of such trivial matters, the Elf King has been angry countless times."

Rubia said bitterly, with the fire of hatred intertwined in her ruby ​​eyes.

"From that day on, I had doubts about the rule of the Elf King"

"One day, I expressed my doubts to the Supreme Council and requested an audience with the Elf King."

"To meet the Elf King?!"

Fiana exclaimed when she heard this.

Like Rubia, she was a witch who had received training from the Elf Princess in the"Divine Ritual Institute".

So she understood the meaning of this sentence very well——

Directly meeting the Elf King and looking directly at the"King" are taboos that must not be violated!

In history, there have been several Elf girls who successfully met the Elf King, but it is said that none of them died unexpectedly.

Therefore, this Over time, things became taboo

"Therefore, my request was firmly rejected, and it also made the Elf King angry."

"Then... the Elven King ordered me to pay a tribute as a price to appease his rage."

Having said this, Rubia glanced at her sister, with an expression of gritted teeth on her cold and pretty face.

"offerings?"

Claire was not too surprised.

It is common for high-ranking elves to ask for sacrifices and offerings from humans.

For example, the Hime Miko usually perform Kagura dance instead of offering sacrifices, while the Elf Envoy can use"divine power""Supply to the elves in lieu of tribute. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"What the Elf King ordered me to offer is……"

"The real flames of the Elstein family."

Hearing this, everyone present was dumbfounded.

The real meaning of this sentence is the"flame of truth" of the Elstein family.

"No way?! Could it be that...the Elf King wants Claire as a sacrifice?!"

Linsilei was the first to react and asked in disbelief.

The one who answered her was Rubia's silent silence, which meant that her guess was correct.

"How, how could it happen?……"

Claire also didn’t expect that her sister would face such a choice at that time.

"The Elf King actually wants my life?!"

"But, this shouldn't be the case, Rubia-senpai!"

Fiana couldn't help but interject, raising doubts about her predecessors who had"graduated" from the Divine Ceremony Academy several years earlier.

"No matter how much he thought about it, the Elf King would never ask for a human life as a sacrifice.……"

"I know it's hard to believe, but it's true."

Lubia closed her eyes slightly and continued to explain the cause of the matter.

"Later, I offered to replace Claire with myself and prayed to the Elf King to accept such an exchange."

"Because I also have the true flame of the Elstein family in my body"

"elder sister……"

Hearing that Rubia wanted to protect herself at the cost of her life.

Claire's eyes were filled with hazy mist again.

However, Rubia's proposal was rejected by the Elf King.

What the Elf King wants is not the"True Flame", but Rubia's"sister".

It just wanted to see the despair and pain caused by its sister being sacrificed.

To make matters worse, Rubia's continuous pushback finally caused the Elf King to become furious.

It issued an edict that if Rubia refused to offer a sacrifice, the capital of the empire would be reduced to ashes... just like the original"Loss Robbery"

"how so……"

"Even if you are the Elf King, this kind of behavior is an atrocity that cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth, right?!"

Fiana paralyzed on the ground helplessly, feeling that her world view had been completely destroyed.

The Hime Miko, who was born in the Divine Ritual Institute, has always served the Elf King as her highest goal in life, but now she suddenly learned that as a lofty ideal It turned out that he was helping others to do evil...

This is indeed an unacceptable fact for Fiana.

"So, falling into despair, I chose betrayal."

Lubia's tone gradually became serious.

Even now, several years apart, Chu Mu could hear the anger and will hidden in her tone.

"On the day the Elf King announced that he would destroy the imperial capital, I entered the main hall where the Elf King was."

After saying this, Rubia shivered as if she had been showered with ice water.

Her body trembled with fear, and her face became pale as she recalled certain scenes.

In After the corridor leading to the"Elf King" hall, she opened the last door.

At the end of the stairs, a huge curtain covered the throne, and above the throne——

"I saw the true face of the king……"

The moment Rubia opened her mouth, crimson raging flames suddenly burst out of the void!

"Purgatory Fire... Rubia, what are you doing? Chu Mu frowned and clenched the"

Demon Exorcist Holy Sword" vigilantly."

"I...saw...gu……"

I saw Rubia curled up on the ground in pain, moaning in pain.

A lot of sweat broke out on her forehead, and bright red blood continued to ooze from all over her body.

The flame is still burning, but it is not under the girl's control

"Sister...sister! What’s wrong with you?!"

Claire hurriedly knelt down and tried to help her sister up.

However, the moment she held Rubia's hand, she let out a cry of pain.

"ah! So hot!"

Those fine blood drops are as hot as magma, as if they are going to burn through people's skin!

As the blood seeps out, the tattoos all over the body surface of the"Disaster Elf Princess" also appear.

These tattoos are like Just like the"Jio-Inzat" Chu Mu saw that day, it covered his whole body

"Curse engraving?!"

Seeing these densely packed tattoo symbols, Linsilei, who is well-informed, quickly identified them.

"Haha...my time...seems to have come to an end.……"

Rubia's face turned pale, and she smiled weakly in Claire's arms.

"elder sister! What is going on? How can I save you?!"

"it's useless……"

With a sigh, the red lotus flames born from the void poured down like a waterfall.

"——The fire of hell...comes to claim my life……"

Just when Rubia closed her eyes, preparing to face her death calmly.

A leisurely and familiar male voice came to my ears.

"It seems it's finally my turn to appear."

"God-killing Flame-Levadin, right? Get out of here!".
