Chapter 689: Elf Queen Laphia (3)



Ji Chen always enjoyed doing business with the wealthy, and it was quite evident that the Elven Queen was the wealthiest in the entire Elven Empire.

Of course, this was just an appetizer to start the conversation between them. What followed was the most important part.

Lainekel couldn’t help but speak up, “Your Majesty, we have something important to discuss…”

Laphia smiled and interrupted him, “Sit down first, and then we can discuss what comes next.”

Lainekel had no choice but to close his mouth and sit nervously on the stone bench. His clenched fists showed his anxiety, and he couldn’t bring himself to look directly at the Queen’s face; his expression was full of unease.

However, it was not an admiration for the beautiful opposite sex but a deep-rooted unease from the depths of his soul, a feeling of wanting to escape.

The Elven Queen exuded a tide of power that made even the demonic body tremble with anxiety. Her golden eyes seemed capable of melting him directly, filling him with an uncontrollable fear.

It was like the scorching sun, leaving no place to hide for this sewer rat.

Sensing his discomfort, Laphia gave a slight smile and reassured him, “There’s no need to be concerned. Even though I’m not sure about the details of your situation, as long as you’re here, speaking and acting like a human, and still considering yourself a human, then you are indeed one.”

Lainekel was momentarily taken aback, then nodded in relief, his demeanor visibly relaxing.

Ji Chen smiled and said, “Thank you for your reassurance, Your Majesty. Regarding our visit this time, it is related to Lainekel’s transformation.”

He once again recounted everything they had discovered in the semi-sealed mystic realm and the information Lainekel had provided about the demons.

However, after Ji Chen finished speaking, he noticed that Laphia didn’t show much surprise on her face.

Curious, he asked, “Your Majesty, were you already aware of these things?”

“Not exactly.” Laphia shook her head gently. “It’s just that the High Priest has always predicted the coming of a great evil, but he didn’t expect it to be the return of the demons.

However, listening to your account, everything seems to be coming together.”

Ji Chen squinted and spoke, “Including the fact that the orderly gods haven’t responded to their followers, and there have been no oracle warnings?”

A hint of surprise flashed in Laphia’s eyes, “How did you know?”

“I pieced together a series of information fragments and made bold guesses.” Ji Chen smiled. “So, does this mean that even the event where the Elven Mother Goddess descended with an oracle more than a decade ago is also…”

“Yes, I faked it,” Laphia admitted straightforwardly. “The believers need the response and protection of the gods. This is for the stable development of the Elven race and to soothe their souls.”

As a nation that had been under the protection of the gods for countless ages, a kingdom that worshipped the gods, each reigning queen required the oracle of the Elven Mother Goddess to reassure the citizens. If the people ever discovered that the gods no longer favored them, it could lead to unpredictable and severe consequences.

Therefore, when the High Priest failed multiple times to receive the oracle, Laphia decisively fabricated false oracles.

With the cooperation of the High Priest, as the highest ruler, there was no way the elves would doubt the authenticity of the oracle.

They believed that they were still basking in the divine light of the gods and continued to play music and dance, maintaining the peace and prosperity of the nation.

Of course, this was not what Ji Chen was concerned about. He was more interested in the attitude of the Elven Queen.

“Your Majesty, what is your stance on the suspicion that dark deities have entangled the orderly gods, and that the demons are about to return after hundreds of thousands of years?”
