Chapter 1247: 1245 Siege

Chapter 1245 Siege

Virion was stationed at the border of Paris and Belgium. He was not that upset that his legion was stationed here because his people benefited from the Survival Game in the territories behind him. In fact, he needed to be here to protect them once they got back. He had experienced the Survival Game and thanks to the Survival Game, he got his fourth class. He was one of few in the fourth class.

His first class was Elven Ranger. The original class he obtained back then, then he got his second class from the advancement trial. He got his third class which was categorized as a unique class, and the fourth class from the Survival Game. He was not one of the strongest in the Tang Empire, but he was one of the strongest in his ranks. It was hard to admit it, but everything was thanks to the Tang Empire.

Virion had a conflicting feelings after her mother's affair was revealed. It was a lie that he did not hate The Emperor for the affair with his mother, but as a King of the Elven Kingdom, he had to look for the big picture. With all those benefits, the Elven Kingdom grew stronger each day. After the Survival Game, his new legion grew stronger up to another level.

Virion stood on the wall, watching the border with his hood on. This was a war, he did not have his wooden crown. He suddenly said to the person who stood next to him, "Are not mad with your husband, Aunt?" The question came out of nowhere, but it was always in his mind.

"Mad?" Aleesa turned her head toward her nephew with a confused expression. The question came out of nowhere with no context.

"That your husband had an affair with your sister? Weren't you mad at him?"

"Hmmm. I was mad when it was revealed, but not anymore. I have accepted him as he is. It's not like I can do anything about it. You know that our marriage is not based on feelings, but to form an alliance. Even if I am mad, what can I do?" Aleesa maintained her flat expression. It was hard to read what she exactly felt about the affair from her expression, "Do you want me to slap him and break the marriage? That might break the alliance between the Elven Kingdom and the Tang Empire. And you should be aware and know that there's nothing I can do but accept it."

Virion let out a sigh. That was his idea to surrender and marry one of his family bloodlines to The Emperor. He put her aunt in that position, and he was cruel to ask her about that. He was inconsiderate and let out a sigh, "I am sorry. I don't mean to..." Aleesa waved her hand at her nephew, "There's no need to apologize. That's fine. You should not apologize as a King unless it's His Majesty. You should apologize to him if you think you made a mistake."

"Do you regret it, Aunt? Maybe I can do something for you to get you out of the marriage," Virion had a serious look on his face when he said about it. He felt like it was enough that his family suffered. He did not want his Aunt to suffer for his stupid idea.

"Oh, how are you going to do that?" Aleesa made an interesting expression.

"I will ask His Majesty to annul your marriage with him. That might work with how he tore apart my family," Virion was serious with it. If his aunt asked him to do it, then he would do it.

Aleesa clicked her tongue and flicked her nephew's forehead. She was the only one who could do that among all the Elves in the Elven Kingdom, "Never bring that topic up again or say to anyone else, understand?" Her expression changed quickly to a serious face, "That will never happen because His Majesty will not let that happen, and I also don't want it. Do you understand?"

Virion was caught off guard by how his aunt changed her expression. He did not know if she really wanted to break the marriage or if she was worried about him because what he proposed might affect the Elven Kingdom as a whole. But he ended up nodding. n0velUSB.c0M

"Good. His Majesty will not grant your wish even if you try to use his guilt over your family, and you might end up dead instead," Aleesa then chuckled, amused as Virion was confused, "If you know the reason His Majesty established an Empire, then you will understand. It's funny if you know his reason, a silly reason I will say, and he ends up establishing a massive empire."

That piqued Virion's curiosity, the reason why The Emperor established the empire. There was no way he was not curious after hearing that, "May I know the reason, Aunt Aleesa?"

Aleesa gave her nephew a side glance, "I will not share my husband's funny story with you."

Virion wanted to push further, but he received a message. Not just him, but also his aunt. Both looked unfocused for a moment, reading the message they received. The message was an alert for those stationed on this border. Both exchanged glances and nodded before Virion left the wall. He came down from the wall and shouted, "Get ready to fight! Man up the wall! Get ready to fight!" His voice reverberated in the air.

Tonight was supposed to be the unique class distribution as the reward for the people who had fought for the Tang Empire. The Elven Legion had sent fifty representatives to Germany to receive the unique class. Aleesa and Virion could not join the meeting because they must oversee Paris's border, "Hundreds of thousand army, huh?" Aleesa muttered by herself as she received the report from Tang Empire Intelligence Division (TEID). The report along with the warning, was the message she just received.

The Federation of Allurion and the Divine Church sent their army to Earth, and they gathered this army in Belgium. She was impressed with how fast TEID got the information. Knowing the federation and the church sending their army was a simple task because TEID had their people in the Starter City. However, knowing where the army was sent was impressive. The message also mentioned the reinforcement for them, and they were asked to hold the border until they arrived.

The Elven Legion rushed to the wall, a set of a bow and a quiver and also a pair of short swords. That was the set for the Elven Legion. More people also gathered behind the wall. They were the close combat army from the Ortis Legion. Ortis Legion was another new legion formed by the former knight and army from the three kingdoms from the Ortis Continent; The Malecia Kingdom, The Lionax Kingdom, and The Warmir Kingdom. There were over five hundred thousand armies, guarding Paris' border.

Not long after that, a figure climbed up the wall and approached Aleesa, the former Queen of the Malecia Kingdom, Jasmine. Aleesa came over and hugged Jasmine, "What are you doing here?" The female elf was surprised that Jasmine was here on the battlefield.

"I am bored, so I come here," Jasmine replied lazily. She was the person in charge to oversee the Ortis Legion, and also the person in charge to govern the people from the three kingdoms.

Aleesa rolled her eyes, "This is not a playground, but a battlefield. Are you the reinforcement that TEID mentioned?"

"Reinforcement? No. I got the order this morning to meet you here, and we might attack that side. I come to watch the battle," Jasmine pointed at the other side of the wall. That was the last message she received from Zhang Mengyao.

Aleesa was puzzled for a moment, "Haven't you received the message?" Then the elf went with "Ah" as she realized something, "That brat did not bother to send you a message because you are heading here already." That brat in her mouth was of course Lu An. Then she explained what actually, and the reason why she was worried that Jasmine was here.

"I don't know," Jasmine waved her hand, "It does not matter. I am not that weak just because you never see me fight. Try to use Detection on me."

[Name: Jasmine Adelia Landon; Rank: Primordial; Affiliation: Tang Empire]

Aleesa was surprised to see Jasmine's rank. She never saw Jasmine in the battle even back in the Ortis Continent. Both never crossed paths there, and she never heard Jasmine's name aside from the fact that Jasmin was The Queen of the Malecia Kingdom.

"I guess you will be fine," As soon as Aleesa finished her words, they heard the sound of footsteps, loud and clear. If they stood on the ground instead of the wall, they might feel the vibration.

Aleesa came closer to the wall and saw into the distance. Her eyes could see far into the distance, and she discovered a massive army standing at a safe distance from her army's arrows, "Our guests have arrived. Get your people ready, Jasmine."

"They are ready," Jasmine pointed below where her army was still in their armor and stood in lines.

"Then let's start with a little bit of poking," Aleesa took out her bow and quiver, ready for night hunting. Her people might not be able to reach the army, but she easily hit the enemy even from this distance. She held the bow and nocked an arrow, pulling the string as she looked for her first target.

"Wait!" Jasmine suddenly stopped Aleesa from shooting the arrow, "Mengyao just sent a message, telling us not to attack!"

Aleesa furrowed her brows. She wanted to push the army back by killing a few of them. She loosened the arrow and turned toward Jasmine with a frown, asking for an explanation why she could not attack the enemy.

Jasmine shrugged, "Apparently the federation and the church requested a meeting with her. It's a temporary truce until the meeting is over."

"Tch," Aleesa clicked her tongue, "Why would Mengyao accept the request? What do we need to talk about anymore? They are invading our world, and we fight them to repel them from Earth. They are taking our resources."

"I don't know. I am glad that I am not in that position. It was quite hectic to manage the kingdom's affairs. We need to put a lot of things into consideration, after all," Jasmine shrugged, "I like this way better. Just listening to the orders, a little bit of thinking."

"I guess so," Aleesa let out a sigh. She felt like with Tang Shaoyang, everything was quite simple. But she knew that Zhang Mengyao took everything cautiously with a lot of responsibility on her shoulder. If anything went wrong, all the blame was on her even if it was her subordinates who made a mistake.

Zhang Mengyao returned to the Starter City with Lu An, Kang Xue, Moonsong, and Marshal Alton. The five went to meet with the federation and the church's representatives, Redvers Scovel and Saintess Marisha. The meeting was held in an interesting place, The World Union's main base at the Earth Region. That meant they were brought by the people of the World Government, the only way they could enter the Earth Region. That was a show for Zhang Mengyao that the federation and the church had the World Government under their order.

Saintess Marisha and Redvers Scovel took the main seat while Hines Myers, the leader of the World Union was standing behind them, "What do you want?" Zhang Mengyao was direct with her words, not wasting any time with useless talk.

The wolf beastmen, Redvers Scovel, shook his head, "I don't understand why they are still following someone with no manners like you."

Zhang Mengyao let out a chuckle, "Do you expect me to respect you after invading my world? That's really something coming from you. It seems I am wasting my time with the useless like you. I thought you wanted to beg me not to annihilate your army and be willing to retreat, but I am wrong, I guess."

Redvers Scovel's expression changed quickly with how Zhang Mengyao openly disrespected him, but then he held down and looked at Moonsong, "Why are you following her? Your Emperor is dead, your empire's future is bleak. Follow me, and I will grant you power and authority instead of becoming her servant."
