Chapter 658: The Loyalty Oath - Part 2

"I am the current King of The Elven Kingdom, Revalor." The Elven King bowed his head at Tang Shaoyang as he introduced himself to his Lord. After him, Moonsong also bowed his head. "I am Moonsong, Chief Moon of the Moonlight Tribe. It's a pleasure to serve you, My Lord."

"Mnn." Tang Shaoyang nodded his head and looked at Elven's group. They wore a black cloak, and the atmosphere was quite gloomy too. He looked at the group and found out that the Elven who followed The Elven King was relatively young. There were ten Elven that looked at the same age as Crown Prince Virion and three old elven.

Noticing Tang Shaoyang's attention on them, The Elven King smiled sadly. "The Elven is mourning because we lost six of our Elders. We are sorry to wear the black cloak for the Loyalty Lord, My Lord."

The sadness was genuine even though he was the one who killed the six Elders. Aleesa's eyes widened in shock as she looked at the Elven King. 'What happens?' She wanted to ask that, but she knew this was not the right moment. Before she went to meet her husband, the six Elders that were not here were still alive yesterday. How could they die overnight?

"I offer my sincere condolences for your loss." Tang Shaoyang responded with a nod. He thought of asking how they died. Since The Elven was his vassal, he thought of avenging the six Elders' death. However, he felt something fishy about the whole situation. He glanced at Aleesa and noticed the Elven girl was surprised by the news of the six Elders' death. He decided to keep silent about the Elder's death.

"They have found their peace within the Sacred Tree. That's the final resting place for us, The Elven." The Elven King smiled.

For some reason, the Elven King's words gave Tang Shaoyang a chill. It was as if the Elven King was someone from fanatical religion or something. He threw away the thoughts and got to the main topic directly. "We will start the Loyalty Oath after she explains what is necessary."

Tang Shaoyang pulled Selena with him, bringing her to the Elven and The Moonlight Tribe. "She has a class Holy Priest, and she has an ability to cast something like a system contract, The Oath. She is also my wife, Selena."

"We greet Lady Selena." The Elven King and Chief Moon were the first two to greet Selena with a slight bow of their heads. The others followed after them, greeting Selena just like their leaders did. After Tang Shaoyang introduced Selena, Chief Moon took the initiative to introduce his people too.

Chief Moon brought two Grand Elders and twelve Elders with him, nothing else. The Elven King brought the remaining three Elders and also ten younger Elven. The ten younger Elven were the successor to the Elder's position. Not just did The Elven King abdicate his throne, but The Elders also resigned from their position. Of course, Crown Prince Virion was among the group.

Even though this was an official event, it did not take long for the Loyalty Oath. It started with Selena explaining the oath and telling them to follow her words. After the instruction, she extended her right hand toward the Elven and The Moonlight Tribe as her left hand extended toward Tang Shaoyang. "I…"

The Elven King, Chief Moon, and the others followed the oath, and the light glow surrounded the group. The glow was getting brighter and brighter, and after they finished the oath. The glow was transferred through Selena's hand toward Tang Shaoyang. The radiant glow enveloped Tang Shaoyang before sipping into his body.

Selena took a deep breath and released it in one go. She then looked toward The Elven King and Chief Moon and informed them that the oath was over. The Elven King looked at his hand and looked at the Lord Tang Shaoyang. He noticed the glow around him, and that went into Lord Tang Shaoyang. After the Loyalty Oath, he felt like something was missing from him.

Of course, the event was not over yet. There were still many things that needed to be discussed between Tang Shaoyang and his vassals. After that, they went to the meeting hall. The higher rank in the Tang Empire's forces and also the vassals, gathering at one table.

"As I promised, we will form a new legion with you, Moonsong as the Legion Commander, and Virion as the Vice-Legion Commander. Usually, we will have the second Vice-Legion Commander. But I will entrust that job to you two." Tang Shaoyang spoke to Moonsong. The Elven King and the three Elders joined in the meeting hall, but they were excluded from voicing their opinion.

Moonsong looked at Virion, and then he glanced at the Elven King. He thought the discussion would be between him, Elven King, and Lord Tang Shaoyang. However, since the Lord has spoken, he could only agree with the arrangement. It was not that he did not want to work with Virion, but he felt like the young prince was still too young for the position.

"If that is the case, let's decide the second Vice-Legion Commander right now, My Lord. I have someone to recommend for that position." Moonsong glanced at the Grand Elder Auron. "Even though he's old, he has the experience we need to lead an army. He is the Grand Elder of The Moonlight Tribe, Auron."

The second Vice-Legion Commander was supposed to be given to The Elven. That was the distribution for the position, the fairness between the two vassals since The Moonlight Tribe had gotten the Legion Commander. However, there was a reason for Moonsong to propose this.

Chief Moon was looking for what the Tang Empire needed in the short term. From the Elven's formation this morning, he was sure that Virion would suggest one of the Elder's successors for the position. He did not want two young inexperienced Elven to be his assistance to lead the army.

From what Sylvia told him before she left the tribe, the Tang Empire had one goal to conquer Gigante Forest. It was to conquer the whole continent, meaning after The Moonlight Tribe and The Elven became the vassal, their Lord would focus on the three human kingdoms. That was the next big war for them, fighting the three kingdoms, and he did not want the two young inexperienced Elven to be his Vice-Legion Commanders.

Crown Prince Virion immediately glared at Moonsong, and He was visibly angry because of what Moonsong said. It was not in the right place, in front of Lord Tang Shaoyang. Unless he could come up with a better recommendation, Auron would get that position, the second Vice-Legion Commander.

He looked at the young Elders; none of them had the same qualification as Grand Elder, not even close. Virion secretly glanced at Tang Shaoyang, hoping The Lord would refuse the recommendation since The Grand Elder was too old.

Tang Shaoyang rubbed his chin as he scanned the two people, The Elven Prince and Chief Moon. 'Are they fighting for that position? If they fight for it, then I have to prevent infighting between these two..' This was the first day of their official meeting, but the atmosphere was not quite good already.
