-----

Elfina and Fiere had entered the Evergreen Fiefdom seeking food and shelter. But in actuality Elfina simply wanted a comfortable bed. It has only been almost three days since they went out of the castle and she was already missing her fluffy bed, although she had yet to regret coming with Kireina in her journey back home, she wanted at least a single day where she could slack off to her heart's content. The Fiefdom was governed by a series of n.o.bles from the Elven Royalty family, although she wasn't interested in meeting them nor they were interested din meeting her either, she ended meeting with one that was interested, a beautiful pink-haired and blue-eyed elven lady of four hundred years of age, her aunt, Lady Floresse.

She had been invited by her aunt to her manor, and she was now relaxing and enjoying a nice and delicious tea, sweets, and the comfortable seat that she had been missing for a while, all while conversing with her aunt about what had transpired since her capture by the humans, and more. Elfina didn't knew the concept of shutting down, so Floresse ended learning all about Kireina, how she slaughtered three Demon Lords by herself, and what was to come

"I am so shocked I can't believe something like this happened to my big sister!" Sighed Floresse. "I-Is your mother okay, Elfina?" Asked the beautiful pink-haired elf woman, her large b.r.e.a.s.t.s pressed over her arms as her hands got together into a praying stance, although praying to the old Light G.o.ds, who were long dead wouldn't serve any purpose, many people still did it.

"Yes, she's alright for now, she's still slowly recovering, but I hope things will be alright from now on!" Sighed Elfina. "Kireina is really a handful, she's too much of a brute too! Ugh, well, for the moment I was thinking on taking the day off here, is that possible for you, Auntie?"

"Sure thing, Elfina! You don't even need to ask. I am your aunt and I honestly would gladly welcome you as much as you want! Fiere is also a very polite servant, you're very lucky to have her with you." Said Floresse.

"Hehe, yeah, Fiere has always been at my side since I was a little girl, she's like everything for me!" Said Elfina, as Fiere suddenly felt a bit surprised by Elfina's words, and also quite embarra.s.sed!

"Elfina-sama, don't say such embarra.s.sing things" She sighed.

"Hehe, but it's true! Without you it would all be horrible" Sighed Elfina.

Floresse smiled calmly as she quickly decided to go more serious topics. Despite the peacefulness of the forest of the elves, protected by the barrier of the Guardian, the last G.o.d to be alive, things were perilous outside, she had learned a lot of new information about what had been happening, especially since he apparent destruction of the Kingdom by the hands of the "Summoned Demon", or well, Kireina.

"Anyways, Elfina, I want to tell you something" Said Floresse. "You see"

She quickly began to explain many things to Elfina, as her calm down face expression quickly began to turn into concern and even frustration all together. She learned that the Nations of Humans together with the Empire of Humans were unified into a new Human Alliance, which was going not only against the Demons but the Elves, whom they had an alliance for eons.

"W-Wha?! They hate Kireina that much?! That people were all corrupt anyways! By kidnapping me they were already trying to incite something Maybe they got desperate now, without me to pressure my parents, the only option they got is going all out in a war A-Are they moving their troops already?" Asked Elfina. "The Empire is not as simple as that little Kingdom or the other Lesser Human Nations, it is the biggest nation of all the Human ones, the most ancient one as well, and that one used to have Summoners in the past, so they had summoned a lot of heroes from other worlds and their descendants became the royal bloodlines of now, who all inherited the heroes powers through the special skill [Bloodline Inheritance] that they managed to create through the Magic Ring of Blood, is it not? Those people are real baddies!" Elfina went into a long rant about them, while quickly recalling the reason why the Human Empire was so frighteningly strong.

Within the Royal Family of the Empire of Humans, there was a long tradition of wearing special magic rings imbued with the essence of an ancient race of demons, Vampires, a specific power they held which they stole from this ancient race of demons which is rumored to have gone extinct, [Bloodline Inheritance], a Skill that allowed a person inherit part of their Skills to their offspring directly, something that is usually not possible, as Skills are part of the soul and cannot be inherited to the offspring.

However, thanks to [Bloodline Inheritance], a Skill imbued in dozens of Magical Rings treasured by the Royal Family of the Empire of Humans, the descendants of all those ancient Summoned Heroes that were incredibly overpowered had received their skills even now, although the skills were random, they simply had children until one managed to inherit the most important ones, making the Royal Family of the Empire incredibly vast, with almost a hundred members nowadays, each one holding from one to three overpowered Unique Skills inherited from very ancient heroes.

"Indeed, Elfina" Sighed Floresse. "I've already sent a report to your father, but it seems that Elves are simply being framed as "allying with the demons" and we are being ostracized, the Empire is coming at full march and will clash against us from within the Dark Labyrinth City in a few days from now Your parents should had already deployed troops to defend the place, and so will do most of the fiefdoms"

"T-This is d.a.m.n humans always ruining things!" Sighed Elfina.

"Well, I know this is a bit selfish to ask but the reason I told you this is because I wanted to request your cooperation with your summon" Said Floresse.

"Kireina I wonder if she would really help or not" Sighed Elfina.
