“Now, it’s time to fulfill my duty! My Lords, in this life-and-death crisis, shouldn’t we put aside our prejudices for the time being and unite against the outside world to return the children to a clear world?”

The Great Elder might not be a successful leader, but he must be a successful speaker.

Using the children as an entry point undoubtedly hit the sore spot of most of the people present. They might have ulterior motives or not like each other, but they all cherished every little life that was hard to come by. Children were on the reverse scale of all elves. Even if they met a child they didn’t know, no adult elf would stand by and watch them fall into danger.

Moreover, there was indeed a ‘righteousness’ in these words. Who would want to admit that they were in a dead position? Who could admit that they didn’t care about their child’s safety? For these nobles and officials who had superior status and followed the old rules, the outside world’s reputation was almost everyone’s Achilles’ heel. No one dared to risk losing the people’s support to oppose ‘righteousness’.

I believed the Great Elder had wanted to say these for a long time, but no one had listened to him before, and he didn’t have an excuse to flare up. Now that he had this rare opportunity, he had to seize the opportunity and make fun of ‘some people’.

There was little to say in the discussion that followed. It was nothing more than a cycle of speech, questioning, and counterattacks. It was the same as any large-scale meeting I had ever seen.

Solemnity was a very relative thing. In the face of certain things, we subjectively believed that they would have this or that kind of limitation, but the facts told us that many things that we thought were covered in a veil were child’s play. Perhaps only the scenes in the TV series would fit the atmosphere in people’s imagination. Reality always made people wonder if this was right and reliable.

No wonder all governments had to maintain their solemnity and secrecy. Who would believe that a group who could not wait to fight to solve problems at a conference could lead the country to a bright future?

In short, after a vote, the discussion was finally passed with a slight advantage of approval. This did not mean there were many oppositions, but the number of neutrals was surprising. Even the city-states that had cast a neutral vote looked a little surprised. It seemed that every city-state thought that someone would take responsibility and that they would watch from the side.

The meeting ended in a day. From nightfall, the Elven Capital City was busy. Messengers came and went, and calls and mail flowed into the Communication Department. Even the elders no longer stayed on the vine seats as if they had taken root. The old men, who looked like rotten wood, walked quickly as if they had a long-distance runner in their cores.

Prejudice was a biased spectacle. I always thought the internal situation of the elves was really worrying. However, once they decided to unite, the cohesion and action were really amazing, as if the previous discord and friction did not exist.

The Speaker of Parliament, who was pushing for new policies, and the first Prince, who was eager to inherit the throne, were usually at odds with each other. The two concepts were opposite. However, in the face of this, they could temporarily shake hands and make peace. Each of them was full of smiles, like real brothers.

In this regard, I once told my companions privately, “You can’t judge a book by its cover. I think I was too arrogant before and thought of elves as fools. It has been proven that their wisdom and actions are on par with any foreign race.”

“Who wouldn’t think that way after seeing their previous situation?” Eve said, “Appearance is always the best at confusing people, even if everyone knows they need to guard against false appearances.”

In just one night, the elven race, or most of the regions, were fully mobilized. I saw Kaya organizing her troops in the square outside the palace in the early morning hours. She had received a mission to immediately lead her small team to patrol the area that bordered the royal city and the western city-states.

The palace had the rarest treasures. After a discussion, the elders decided that the palace was still the most dangerous area, so all the important passes needed to be strictly controlled. Kaya said, “But if that’s the case, our cooperation will have to end for the time being. The elders are still discussing how to send a team to help you.”

Of course, I understood her. This was a normal job transfer, so I said, “I wish you all the best in your work, all the best, and that you can get rid of your worries as soon as possible.”

As expected, the elders came to find us again in the morning and told us about Kaya’s transfer. They also introduced me to a new business partner.

Surprisingly, the candidate this time was still an ‘old acquaintance’ of mine. It was the commander who didn’t have much authority among the soldiers, Klein.

“It’s a pleasure to see you again. I hope everything has been going well in your life.” We shook hands, and Klein was a little embarrassed. The last time we met, his behavior was embarrassing.

“Hello, Princess of the Werewolves,” he vaguely said.

We tacitly didn’t mention the awkward mutiny.
