Chapter 254: 260 Tagris

260 Tagris
The wind howled as it blew from the distant foothills. The shattered ground was like an ancient battlefield in a history book. Countless remains and fragments were spread throughout, and crimson blood had long dyed the ground dark red.

This battlefield was the core and origin of a huge battle that was almost a miracle.

The outcome of this battle swept through the entire civilized world like a huge storm in a few days, shocking the greatest and most powerful monarch, only because of the cause, process, and outcome of this war.

On the Goethe battlefield, the six elite Dragon Flag Legions of the Twilight Royal Army were filled with glory and honor. They had even long been recorded in the annals of history. Together, they could destroy any small country with irresistible force and defeat the main forces of any country head-on. However, they were completely wiped out in more than ten minutes. There were almost no survivors.

This could be said to be the most painful defeat in the Twilight Dynasty in 200 years. To the reputation of the overlord of the elves, it was an irreversible shadow… The bitter elves of the world had really been gone for too long.

The person who completed all this was only an Easterner from Cathay.

For a moment, Kang De’s name had already resounded throughout the continent.

Due to the lack of information, the way to spread, and even the sealing of information, most ordinary people had not heard of this. They did not even know that Goethe was fighting a war, but the true upper-class people in this world already knew Kang De like the back of their hands—it was only limited to what had happened after he appeared on the continent.

Due to the fact that all the crew of the Penguin had died and that Princess Tina was the only survivor, the important figures did not even know that Kang De was from the Holy Seal Islands. They only knew that he was an Easterner who Princess Tina had picked up on the way to the Empire, but he had the terrifying power to destroy cities.

Countless people were studying Kang De, collecting all the information about him, searching for his past, and studying his personality. They treated him as a thorn in their side and wanted to use him, scheme against him, and kill him. Valentine had gathered more and more people in the past few days. They were all plotting something. Some were kind, some were malicious, and some had an unspeakable goal.

It was the same for this informal elf diplomatic mission.

There were only a few dozen elves who were each riding pegasus and eagle. There were men and women. The males were strong, and the women were beautiful and gorgeous. There was arrogance between their eyebrows, and every move they made had an elegant noble aura. The entire set of magic equipment on their bodies was colorful and engraved with traces of time. It could be seen that they were extraordinary.

These noble elf warriors looked at the tragic battlefield and gritted their teeth. Their eyes widened. The shattered corpses, the flag soaked in blood, and the glory of the elves being trampled formed the scene of hell in front of them.

Their hearts were filled with anger and killing intent. Just hearing the news of the destruction of the six armies would only shock and disbelief them. However, when they personally saw this tragic scene and a completely defeated battlefield, boundless anger and humiliation had already ruled their hearts.

He actually dared to let the noble elf warriors bleed on the battlefield and expose their corpses in the wilderness without restraining them. Trampling the dignity of the Royal Army like this was simply going against the entire Twilight Dynasty!

Kang De! Goethe! Valentine! Everyone who had participated in this war, even the entire country, had to pay the price!

An elf suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist and cut his cheek. He said sternly, “I swear to the Moon God…”

“—Shut up.”

His voice was very calm, without even a trace of emotion.

However, the furious elf immediately shut his mouth and even stopped his blood oath.

“Let me remind you again.”

When this voice sounded, all the proud elves lowered their heads. Their anger, unwillingness, and killing intent were all extinguished. They listened respectfully because the strict class of elves could not be crossed.

The slightly thin figure turned around and looked at every elf present with his green eyes. His magnetic and gentle voice was like a breeze in the forest, but no one dared to underestimate him at all.

“You’re all heroes of Twilight. You’re young people with a bright future in this generation of the dynasty. I don’t care what important position you’ll take in the palace or council in the future, nor do I care which holy place your father belongs to as a hero and noble. At least for now, at this moment, you’re my followers. I’m ordered to serve as this dishonorable envoy. You’re my dishonorable subordinates.”

“Yes, everyone. The word I used is not honorable.”

“I have to remind you again of the meaning of this diplomatic mission.”

“We’re unofficial diplomats. We’re here because we failed. More than 60,000 of our compatriots were shattered here and suffered a crushing defeat in a way we can’t understand and can’t believe. We didn’t even have a chance to resist. We lost. At the very least, we lost this battle completely and irrefutable. The Twilight Dynasty was humiliated, and the Royal Army became the laughing stock of the entire continent.”

“The kings and generals of the various countries will not understand the various reasons for our failure. They will only laugh loudly in their palaces or official residences and mock us for such a crushing defeat on the way to conquer little Goethe.”

“The citizens won’t find all kinds of reasons to sugarcoat this failure. They’ll only condemn our incompetence and cry for our innocent compatriots who died.”

“At a time like this, we didn’t use the name of the royal family to come here. The country won’t even admit that this meeting happened. Let me ask you, what are we here for?”

The thin figure looked around at the angry elves.

These heroes looked at each other, but they did not speak.

This was because they were all smart people.

“You all know, but you’re unwilling to admit it. Then let me make it clear. We’re not here to show off or enjoy the honor of the victory. We’re here to admit defeat. We’re here to negotiate. We’re forced here by our opponents because if we don’t come, the corpses of 60,000 compatriots will continue to stay here. They’ll be blasphemed, insulted, and devoured by wild beasts. They’ll never return to their hometown.”

“Moreover, we can only negotiate. We can only come dejectedly because we all know the outcome of sending another army.”

“This is the dilemma we’re facing. This is our enemy.”

“This is the price of failure.”

“Now, you should all understand why you’re here.”

“—Endure humiliation.”

This sentence was calm and simple. The elf who said this still did not have any emotions.

However, the elves who were listening to the teachings held their breaths.

“The people in that city know who we are and what we’re here for. We’re elves and we’re invaders. We killed their families, killed their soldiers, and destroyed their homes. Now, we’re even forced to ask for the corpses of our compatriots who are still here. We have to let the other party name our price. We have to sit at the negotiating table and endure the other party’s humiliation and mean treatment as losers.”

“Just like what we once did to the races and countries we conquered or defeated.”

“You are the future of the Twilight Dynasty.”

“So you have to endure this.”

“Because ladies and gentlemen, the elves are not destined to win by favor of the gods.”

“You’ve never heard of the humiliation and failure our ancestors suffered in the past, or you don’t feel it. This is because ever since you were born, the Twilight Dynasty has been like the sun in the sky, winning all over the world. It’s difficult for the citizens to imagine the failures and difficulties we’ve once encountered, but as the future pillars of this country, you can’t not know this.”

“—Therefore, I order.”

As soon as these words were spoken, all the elves who lowered their heads to be scolded and even stood at the side to watch got into a half-kneel.

“In the name of Tagris, I order you to restrain your anger and remember the humiliation of this trip. You can’t kill anyone. Even if a human picks up the flesh and bones of our race in front of you and tramples on the dragon flag, you’re not allowed to attack. Open your eyes and watch carefully.”

“After entering the city, you’ll be reviled and insulted by human commoners. They’ll even throw rocks at you. You can only block and are not allowed to counterattack. If anyone throws the rocks back and violates the royal family, their family will also be punished by me with all my might. Although I’m far from the center of the palace’s power, as the younger brother of Her Majesty, I still have this ability. I hope everyone can remember it clearly.”

“Bear with humiliation and don’t cause trouble. If you lose, it won’t damage the honor and dignity of the elves, but if you lose, you’ll throw a tantrum and be angry. It’ll ruin the glory of your ancestors. I hope you all remember this.”

After the lecture, the elves dispersed. Their mission was not only to protect their followers but also pairs of eyes. They personally confirmed the situation on the battlefield and returned to tell the elders of their race.

The thin young elf was wrapped in a thick cloak. A faint sorrow flashed through his green eyes as he stared at this tragic battlefield.

After a few days, the flesh and blood should have long become smelly and moldy. It was the mages and priests of Goethe who continuously dealt with the battlefield accordingly. They lowered the temperature and expelled the corruption to prevent the breeding of plague and the spread of the stench. However, as the people of Goethe, they would definitely not do it too diligently.

“Your Highness, it’s better not to look.”

The elves who had been watching from the side gathered.

His name was Tagris, the compatriot brother of the Elven Empress.

Tagris shook his head and said, “To endure humiliation and remember it is one of my goals. They died in battle for Twilight. As a member of the royal family, I have to remember how they looked when they died in battle.”

The elves were silent. The elf who was talking to Tagris looked around and said in a low voice, “Do you really want to negotiate with that Kang De? The source of all the problems is him. As long as we deal with him, we’ll be done. You know that the few of us are extremely confident if we join forces.”

“However, if there’s any mistake, the Twilight Dynasty will face a huge risk.”

Tagris shook his head, then revealed a mocking sneer, “But then again, we don’t have to do it. There’s someone who’s more anxious to kill him than us. I even know what he’ll do.”

The elves were first stunned, then they returned to their senses in unison with complicated expressions.

The elf said in a low voice, “So, we only have to wait? Wait for Kang De to die?”

“No,” Tagris said indifferently. “We have to save his life.”
