...

Elves are magical creatures.

Born from nature, they are nature's darlings.

From birth, they are blessed by nature.

Natural disasters do not claim their lives, and their extremely long lifespans allow them to live in peace and tranquility.

This gives them a hedonistic attitude towards the entire world.

Under nature's blessing, even if elves do nothing, they can reach heights that are difficult for ordinary humans to attain, relying solely on their extremely long lifespans and nature's gifts.

Take Cocotte, for example.

As an elf who has taken laziness to the extreme, any magic Cocotte learned was for the sake of having a good sleeping environment.

With nature's blessing, she didn't even need much practice.

She had already reached the fourth tier, a level that most mages couldn't achieve in their entire lifetime.

Moreover, as a former council member, she was among the top echelon of fourth-tier mages.

As for magic practice?

Where was the need for practice? Did magic that had been comprehended need frequent practice?

But even such free-spirited elves feared one thing.

That was nature itself.

When Viktor appeared before Lexi, it was as if she was facing nature itself.

It left Lexi in a prolonged state of stupor.

The moment she saw Viktor, she had an urge to kneel down.

She wanted to worship him, to prostrate herself before him.

In Viktor, she seemed to see...

'Nature'

But Lexi knew that the man before her was clearly human.

Yet what was this feeling all about?

"You... I..."

Seemingly uncomfortable under the gaze of the terrifying being before her, Lexi became somewhat incoherent.

There was a feeling that kept reminding her, telling her.

A flash of inspiration crossed her mind, and suddenly a word appeared in her thoughts.

It was a word she had never uttered before.

But that feeling kept reminding her, making her want to say that word uncontrollably.

Suddenly, Lexi stood up abruptly and bowed deeply to Viktor.

"Father!"

Lia: "?"

Leon: "?"

Vega: "?"

Viktor: "..."

.......

Lexi lowered her head, her hands inserted between her legs, rubbing back and forth.

Her face had already turned bright red.

She felt utterly mortified, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into right away.

What on earth had gotten into her head to say such a thing?

Lexi knew how important this word was to humans.

The man before her clearly looked much younger than her.

Yet she had called him "Father".

This was really...

Too impolite!

However, at this moment, everyone's expressions had already returned to normal.

As if they didn't mind at all.

Viktor had already taken the main seat on the sofa, with Lia standing beside him.

She introduced Lexi with a smile:

"Let me introduce you. This is the head of our Kravina family."

"The current Chief Professor of the Imperial Royal Magic Academy."

"One of the twelve council members of the Mage Council."

"The youngest fourth-tier mage in history, Count Viktor Kravina."

This string of titles left Lexi even more silent.

"..."

She didn't dare to raise her head, not even daring to steal a glance at Viktor with her peripheral vision.

Vega stood on Viktor's shoulder, communicating in a voice that only it and Viktor could hear:

"I thought you had hidden a child from me at some point."

"Feels like this one isn't very bright."

Viktor didn't respond to Vega, as if in complete agreement.

He sat on the sofa, leaning forward, his hands crossed on the table.

"You want to find Cocotte Yade, right?"

Lexi suddenly raised her head upon hearing Cocotte's name, looking at Viktor with an incredulous expression.

The surname Yade was one that only elven royalty could possess.

An elf's name is not given by their parents.

Every elf is born without a name or surname.

Because elves have no parents.

'Yade'

That place is where every elf is born.

It is a giant divine tree, and all elves are conceived and born from this divine tree.

Within the elven race, there are two treasures guarded for generations, concerning the survival and reproduction of elves.

One is the 'Yade' divine tree, and the other is the 'Moon's Holy Spring'.

The conception of each generation of elves requires watering the elven tree with the holy spring water.

The spring water is poured into the divine tree, nourishing the natural energy within the tree to grow.

After receiving the baptism of the spring water, the body and consciousness of the elves are constructed from within the divine tree.

The power of nature will bestow names and surnames upon the elves.

And the surname 'Yade' will be bestowed upon one elf over the course of several hundred years.

She will possess the surname 'Yade' and become the queen leading the elves.

Cocotte Yade is the elf who has been bestowed with the royal surname by nature in the past hundred years.

Ordinary people would not possibly know her name.

Yet the man before her not only spoke the name of the elven queen but also mentioned the surname 'Yade'.

From Lexi's perspective, this was an incredibly shocking thing.

However, she didn't know that during the years Cocotte had been a council member, her name had already spread throughout the Mage Council.

The elves living in the ancient elven forest indeed had inferior abilities to obtain information.

Perhaps, even now, they don't know that Cocotte had once been a council member in the Mage Council.

However, Viktor's mention of Cocotte's name made Lexi more certain.

Viktor must know something.

Lexi nodded vigorously, but Viktor still looked at her calmly, his tone even:

"Then, what about the price?"

Hearing Viktor's words, Lexi was slightly stunned, as if she hadn't understood Viktor's meaning.

But soon, Lia provided an explanation.

"Hmm... you should know that some favors aren't done for free."

Lia's hands rested on the back of the sofa, her body leaning forward, her chin resting on her arms, lying on one side.

She was at Viktor's head, smiling as she spoke.

"Since you're asking for our help, you should offer something in return, right?"

Hearing these words, Lexi looked at the two, her eyes filling with a hint of mist.

But she held it back, understanding that she absolutely couldn't cry.

After all, asking for help requires paying some price.

The humans who caught her had said the same thing.

They would help her find the queen.

So Lexi had already prepared herself, very clear about her purpose for leaving the forest.

She lowered her head, as if about to suffer some humiliation, lightly biting her lip.

"I... I understand."

"I'm willing to do anything, as long as you can help me find Her Majesty the Queen..."

Lia suddenly laughed, she had been waiting for this answer all along.

"Really?"

"Re-really."

As soon as the words fell, a white paper filled with black writing appeared in front of Lexi, along with a pen.

Lexi looked down at the paper filled with black writing, somewhat confused:

"What is this?"

"Sign it."

Lia smiled gently:

"After signing, we'll be family."

"It's reasonable for family to help each other, isn't it?"

As if a bad premonition traveled from her back to her spine.

Elves have always had good sixth sense, and Lexi felt like she had fallen into some kind of trap.

But for the sake of finding the queen, she still gritted her teeth, picked up the pen, and wrote her name on the contract.

The moment she finished writing, the contract slowly lit up with a blue light.

The paper left Lexi's hand and returned to Lia's.

Taking the contract, Lia smiled slightly.

"Well, from today on, you're an official employee of the Kravina family."

"Don't worry, our family head will let you meet another employee properly."

"Huh?"

Lexi looked confused, still unable to understand what had happened.

How did she become an employee?

And what did meeting another employee mean?

She came out to find the queen!

Suddenly, a flash of azure appeared in Viktor's eyes.

In an instant, fierce winds arose.

The huge curtains swayed constantly, the windows trembled slightly under the wind pressure, making a banging sound.

That terrifying magical aura gradually gathered around Viktor, and an azure formation appeared beneath his feet.

Extremely thick magical power spread throughout the entire room.

"Is there going to be an earthquake!?"

She suddenly became panicked, quickly standing up, only to find that her feet had been surrounded by an ever-expanding magic formation without her knowing.

"A... teleportation formation?"

"How can it be so big!?"

The teleportation formation was formed in an instant, and a surge of blue magical power suddenly burst out from the skylight.

The enormous energy gushed out through the open windows around.

"Go in."

Viktor's voice slowly sounded.

Lexi was a bit scared, but Viktor's words continued.

"You will see the person you want to see there."

Perhaps Viktor's words sparked Lexi's strong will. She took a deep breath, summoned her courage, and closed her eyes.

One foot stepped into the pillar of light.

In just half a second, her entire form turned into blue energy and disappeared from everyone's sight.

After she left, the formation didn't dissipate.

Lia looked at Viktor, who still hadn't moved, somewhat puzzled.

"Hm? Aren't we going back together?"

Viktor stood up, his coat fluttering chaotically in the huge gale.

Whooshing sounds filled the air.

"Bring Cindy, and call Helnersen too."

Lia was stunned for a moment. She could understand bringing Cindy, but calling Helnersen...

Viktor put his hands in his pockets, his cold gaze seeming to look towards the direction of the royal capital.

"There are some accounts I need to settle with Jace."

"Properly."
