Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree
Chapter 1336 - 851: White Knight 2
In the southern part of the battlefield, in a city that has just been breached, the flag belonging to the Elves has already risen over the city walls.
Looking at the scepter flag fluttering continuously in the wind, the Silver-armored Warrior’s gaze was somewhat complex.
The battle was over, the Elves had already moved into the city to rest, and his Cavalry also had a station within the city.
From time to time, songs and laughter could be heard from the camp over there, likely having Elves bring various delicacies and fun items, indulging in post-war revelry with the Knights.
"Are you the White Knight Frank?"
A melodious voice came from behind, calm, mature, with a certain magnetism, capturing the attention of the Silver-armored Knight.
He slowly turned around, seeing a spirited red-haired Elf woman warrior appear behind him.
Beside her was a majestic dragon.
Seeing the female Elf’s luxurious armor and the renowned weapon "Blade of Confession" in her hand, the Silver-armored Elf’s heart stirred:
"Valkyrie, Moonlit Jasmine Flame?"
Upon hearing the Silver-armored Knight’s words, the Elf woman warrior’s gaze was somewhat helpless:
"Forget Valkyrie, you can call me Moonlit Jasmine like the other Elves."
The Silver-armored Knight nodded gently, smiling amiably:
"Miss Moonlit Jasmine, hello, I am Frank."
"And you don’t need to call me White Knight... just call me Frank."
Hearing this, Moonlit Jasmine raised an eyebrow and also nodded:
"I understand."
"Mr. Frank, Lord Kai Leici is waiting for you in the temple, he wants to meet you to thank you for your cooperation and help during the battle these days."
"Kai Leici..."
Upon hearing this name, Frank’s heart skipped a beat.
He knew this name.
The Elf Clan’s newly ascended Demigod, commander of the Elves’ attacking Demon Army.
It was he who brought the Elf Army into the fray, causing the Demon entrenched in the Southern Territory to begin retreating continuously.
And now, having captured this city in front of them, the path ahead was clear, only leaving the Demon Army’s final stronghold, Demon City Moludo.
Routing Moludo would completely end this year-long demon war.
Following Moonlit Jasmine, Frank walked in the direction of the city’s temple.
After being ravaged by demons, this city had fallen into complete decay, and cities like this could be seen everywhere in the Southern Territory.
However, Frank believed that as long as the demons were repelled and the corruption cleansed, all wounds would slowly heal.
And passing by his own cavalry station, Frank indeed saw his warriors mingling with the Elves.
Interestingly, when he first came here to cooperate with the Elves, he always wondered whether they would be difficult to get along with due to their loud reputation.
But it turned out that while they were strong and cold on the battlefield, once the battle ended, these Elves seemed to immediately change; they were friendly, enthusiastic, good at having fun, and knew how to enjoy life...
"Young Master Frank!"
Seeing Frank and Moonlit Jasmine, a knight dressed as a trusted aide put away the poker in his hand and ran over.
Seeing him, Frank smiled slightly and shook his head:
"Roland, how many times have I said, just call me Frank, I’ve discarded the noble title."
"No, Young Master Frank is always Young Master Frank, and Roland is always your trusted aide!"
The trusted aide said.
Then, after thinking for a moment, he added:
"If you don’t like it, I can call you Lord Frank like the others! Or... Captain?"
"You... you rascal..."
Frank chuckled.
"Hehe, after all, you’re our leader! We’re practically a major mercenary group now."
Roland scratched his head.
After saying this, he looked at Frank, curiously glanced at Moonlit Jasmine, and asked:
"Lord Frank, are you...?"
"I am going to the temple to see the Elf Clan’s Kai Leici."
Frank said.
"Kai... Kai Leici..."
Roland’s eyes widened.
"Indeed, I’ll be right back. You keep an eye on the team for me, don’t let everyone party too crazily tonight, Elves’ stamina isn’t something we can compare to, we need to keep traveling tomorrow."
Frank said.
"Okay, don’t worry!"
Roland nodded heavily.
After bidding farewell to his trusted aide, Frank then followed Moonlit Jasmine to the temple.
Like other buildings, the temple was in ruins, and to call it a temple was more like calling it a church.
No, it should actually have been a church, when demons hadn’t come here, this place was under the influence of the Eternal Church, and the building in front was an Eternal Church.
Of course, now the banner of the Life Church was raised over it.
"Life Church..."
Looking at the new scepter mark, Frank recalled the shocking news he heard a few days ago...
Life Goddess Eve... turns out to be the legendary World Tree!
As a former Imperial Noble, he had spent his childhood reading family collections, having some understanding of the Empire’s founding war a millennium ago.
Thus, upon learning the real identity of the Life Goddess, he immediately understood why he always felt the Eternal Church was targeting the Life Church.
However, the Elves who worship Life Goddess Eve still differed from those in legends, so... Frank didn’t know which parts of the books he read were true or false.
History is like a young girl dressed up by anyone, and Frank, who had read extensively, knew many things were written by the victors.
Therefore, for many things in the world, he preferred to see and feel them himself rather than relying solely on others’ teachings...
And coming to the south, witnessing the plight across the Empire, participating in the war against demons, this son of nobility had matured and grown.
Gradually, he understood many things he hadn’t before, but at the same time, more doubts arose.
Through his journey, he became increasingly certain that the Empire was sick, and the Eternal Church was also ill.
And these needed change.
Faintly, he felt he was touching something, but his heart still hesitated, lingering with reluctance.
He vaguely felt the need to do something, yet hesitated... or perhaps, he still wanted to save something in his heart.
"Mr. Frank, we’ve arrived."
Lost in thought, Frank followed Moonlit Jasmine into the temple.
Inside the temple stood a tall Elf, with black hair and black eyes, full of authority, with a long scar down their cheek.
However, that scar was not ugly but added some solemnity and presence.
There seemed to be no pressure from him, appearing like an ordinary person, but Frank knew he was anything but ordinary.
Because he recognized that this was not anyone else, but one of the Elf Clan’s Demigods, Kai Leici!
"Lord Kai Leici, Mr. Frank has arrived."
Moonlit Jasmine drew a scepter sign in front of her, saying.
Kai Leici slowly nodded:
"Thank you."
After paying respects, Moonlit Jasmine withdrew, leaving only Kai Leici and Frank in the temple.
"Lord Kai Leici, I am Frank."
Frank respectfully paid homage.
His expression was somewhat stiff, and his mood quite uneasy.
Demigod!
This was his first time seeing a Demigod!
And at such a close distance!
Kai Leici looked up and down at Frank, nodded gently:
"I know you, a member of the Rosen family, the White Knight Frank who formed a mercenary group to fight demons."
With this, he smiled slightly:
"Frank, you are impressive, I heard the Rosen family abandoned you, taking away your surname in the Imperial Nobles Council; have you considered joining Fengyue Free Territory?"
