Chapter 653 - Valiant Six ( 654)

After reporting everything, Crown Prince Virion left the Assembly House under The Elven King's order. He had done the best; the rest was on his father's shoulders now, convincing The Elder to bow their heads. If this continued, the Elder would ruin their relationship with The Tang Empire.

After the sound of the double door closed, the nine Elders looked toward The Elven King. Six of them showed displeasure on their faces while three Elders calmly waited for The Elven King to speak. The Elven King also observed the nine Elders as he easily read what was in their minds.

One of the Elders could not hold back anymore and opened her mouth. "King Revalor, I think we should consider the Crown Prince Virion's succession to the throne. From the way I look at it, he is siding with The Tang Empire instead of his kingdom. I think he is not suitable to lead The Elven Kingdom!"

Elder Seriana openly voiced her dissatisfaction with what Virion did just now. From the way, he reported the result of his meeting with The Emperor. The Crown Prince prioritized the Tang Empire instead of the Elven Kingdom. He even threatened them for the Tang Empire.

"I agree with Elder Seriana in this case. As the throne's successor, The Crown Prince should prioritize the Elven Kingdom's interest instead of The Tang Empire. This time, Crown Prince Virion has gone too far." Another Elder voiced his voice of disagreement.

"In this part, Second Prince Arbane is superior to The Crown Prince. Even though The Second Prince is less mature than the Crown Prince, he is someone who will prioritize The Elven Kingdom over an outsider." The six Elders voiced their support to push The Second Prince Arbane for the throne after another.

The Elven King Revalor's eyes widened a little bit when he heard those from the Elders. He was not expecting to listen to this right at this moment. But then, he smiled as he scanned the six Elders. 'I see, so you want a puppet king for you guys to control, huh!?'

Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!

King Revalor tapped his index finger against the table as he observed the six Elders. These six Elders never planned to bow their heads to The Tang Empire despite their dire situation. The Guardian Beast Kirin was not enough to scare them.

"What about you three?" The Elven King looked at the three Elders, who did not say anything. "Why don't we hear your opinions before we decide what we will do for our next step?" His index finger did not stop tapping the table as he asked the three Elders.

The three Elders looked at each for a moment before they looked straight at The Elven King. "We will follow The King's order!" The three replied in unison. The three Elder's answer earned them an unpleasant glare from the other six Elders.

"Good, very good. That's a good choice." The Elven King suddenly clapped his hands. The dignified aura around The Elven King was replaced with a playful one as he smiled at the six Elders. "I don't know what in your six Elders' heads are. Or maybe you guys don't have the brain to think?"

The three Elders lowered their heads while the other six Elders were stupefied with the significant change on the Elven King. They could not comprehend the sudden change. They looked at The Elven King with their eyes widened open.

"We are in a dire situation where The Elven Kingdom is facing the downfall if we are making the wrong move, yet you are trying something funny with our kingdom at stake." The Elven King smiled at the six Elders. "I don't know if you are brave or a fool? Do you plan to push my second son to the throne and control him as a puppet? Then do you want to attack The Tang Empire from inside when they did not expect it? Catching them off guard? Is that your plan? Do you, six fools, still think that The Elven has a chance to defeat The Tang Empire?"

The six Elders were stunned when those barrages of questions came from The Elven King. That was in their plan, sneaking Elder Aleesa to the Empire., then they supported the Second Prince to take the throne and control the King from the dark. When the right time came, they would strike the Tang Empire from inside. Their target would be The Guardian Beast Kirin and Sir Alton. As for the mysterious Emperor, Aleesa should be able to take him after she charmed him. That was a great plan. At least, the six Elders thought so.

The Elven King's smile disappeared as he massaged the space between his eyes. "You guys are beyond saving. I can't let you guys harm The Elven Kingdom more than this."

"Then how do you guys kill The Guardian Beast Kirin? How? Let me hear your plan? Setting an ambush or trap for The Kirin? THEN. WHO. AMONG. YOU. CAN. KILL. KALLIYAN? YOU ARE ALL STILL AT PEAK MYTH RANK, AND KALLIYAN IS LEGEND RANK!" The Elven King lost control over his emotions.

Revalor did not expect that he appointed these fools as an Elder of his kingdom. 'How stupid are you, the past Revalor?' He took a deep breath and calmed his emotion down. "Can you guys even hurt Kalliyan? If your stupid plan is working, The Guardian Beast Kirin should have been dead a long time ago."

"But we have you, The strongest Elven King in the history of the Elven Kingdom. The first Elven King to reach Legend Rank." Elder Seriana said that cautiously. "If you are working together with us, killing Kalliyan should not be an issue."

"I see." The Elven King smiled wider this time. "Then? Then what should we do about Sir Alton and Lord Tang? You are not expecting me to fight them alone, are you? Do you think we can kill The Guardian Beast Kirin unnoticed? I would be exhausted by the time I killed Kalliyan so that you six will fight Sir Alton and Sir Tang?"

The six Elders looked at each other. Elder Seriana swallowed up mouthful saliva. She was nervous about the change on The Elven King, but she still voiced her plan. "We have Elder Aleesa. We can order her to kill The Emperor in his sleep. With the beauty of Elder Aleesa, it should be an easy task for her. As for Alton, I think the nine Elders can take care of him."

"Wait! Does Elder Aleesa know your plan?" The Elven King paused for a moment.

"No! She does not know our plan. Suppose we tell her to do that; I believe Elder Aleesa will agree to do that even if her life is at stake." Elder Seriana replied while shaking her head.

"Thank God." The Elven King was relieved when he heard that Elder Aleesa was not involved with the plan. "Hah, she's too smart for her to be involved with this foolish plan. That means I don't have to kill her."

"Huh!?" Elder Seriana was shocked when she heard the last part and blurted out to the point, almost screaming. "What do you mean by that, Elven King!"

"Royal Guard! Cast the Silent Spell!" The Elven King did not reply to Elder Seriana as he commanded. "Thanks for your contribution to The Elven! You guys will be remembered as a wise Elder instead of a foolish Elder, so don't worry about it."

The Elven King took out the long green sword from his inventory and stood up from the honored seat. "The Elven will mourn for the loss of the great six Elders. They bravely fought together alongside the Tang Empire against the Green Sky Serpent, who tried to kill the weakened Guardian Beast Kirin after giving birth to her children."

"The six Elders died after they bravely protected the Guardian Beast Kirin's children from The Green Sky Serpent's attack. They exchanged their lives for the future protector of Gigante Forest. Their names will be recorded in The Elven's history as The Valiant Six. May you rest in peace within The Sacred Tree."

The six Elders stood up from their chairs and jumped away from the Elven King. They rushed toward the door, but the door did not budge even if they smashed it with their fist. One of them took out a sword, but the sword could not even leave a scratch on the door.

"Are you insane, Revalor!?" Elder Seriana screamed at The Elven King.

In response, Revalor smiled… "I am willing to be insane or even a crazed demon for The Elven's future."
