276 Aracan Family’s Internal Conflict

Weis led them to the deepest part of the forest. More and more tree houses came into view and the number of elves also increased. Ramiel and the 100 elite soldiers looked at the elves curiously.

The elves were also staring at them, but their gazes were filled with fear, anger, and contempt, and some even showed hostile expressions. The humans and elves were allies a long time ago, but because of the foolishness of one human who sold elves into slavery, the perception of elves towards the humans dropped to the lowest.

“Weis, why did you bring these humans into our kingdom?! Do you know what atrocities they did to our ancestors?!” A valiant lady wearing battle armor stopped them from entering deeper into the forest. Behind her was a group of elven women holding bows and spears. Each of them was a strong warrior who has the power of a Level 2 Esper! The valiant lady leading them was even more powerful. She was at the peak stage of Level 4!

Weis stared at the valiant lady nervously. She was a High Elf and the daughter of an Elder. Despite not having the royal bloodline of the Aracan Family, this valiant lady possesses an authority that wasn’t any less than theirs. This was because her father was one of the four Level 5 Espers in the kingdom, Elder Dawon.

Before Weis could say something, Aenwyn stepped forward and uncovered her hood, revealing a devastatingly beautiful face.

Seeing her, Lucia’s eyes widened in shock. “Your Highness!” She exclaimed. The elven women behind her also gasped in surprise as they stared at Aenwyn.

“Lucia, I want to speak with my mother. Please take us to her.” Aenwyn muttered.

“This...” Lucia hesitated upon hearing this. Aenwyn’s mother was the Queen of the Aracan Kingdom, Queen Irithel Aracan. She was the strongest expert in the Aracan Kingdom, but she was being held captive by her son, Aenwyn’s elder brother, Callon.

“What’s wrong?” Aenwyn’s voice turned cold as she eyed Lucia.

.....

After a moment of hesitation, Lucia sighed and said. “Her Majesty is locked up in the cold prison by His Highness. I don’t have the authority to take her out. Even the three Elders need His Highness’ approval if they want to see her. If you really want to see Her Majesty, I’ll take you to His Highness and help you beg him.” She was close friends with Aenwyn, but everything changed after her brother’s rebellion. This was because her father, Elder Dawon, is an avid supporter of Prince Callon.



“Your Highness, the prince might lock you up! I’m against this idea!” Weis immediately interjected in a solemn voice.

Aenwyn was silent as she contemplated deeply. “Fine. Bring me to see my brother.”

“Your Highness!” Weis frowned upon hearing this.

“Don’t stop me, Weis! There are more important matters than the internal conflict in our family! I have to speak with my elder brother!” Aenwyn muttered seriously. Aethelwolf told her about the calamity and it brought her a huge sense of pressure. She didn’t want her family to suffer and the only thing she could do to save them was to have them work for Aethelwolf. The strength of the Aracan Kingdom alone wasn’t enough to fight against the Underworlders. She believed that only Aethelwolf could protect them from the calamity.

Weis could only sigh in his heart as he stood behind Aenwyn.

“Lead the way.” Aenwyn said to Lucia.

Lucia glanced at Ramiel and the 100 elite human soldiers before turning her gaze to Aenwyn. “Alright. Follow me.” She muttered.

Under Lucia’s lead, no one dared to stop them. Even those elite elven warriors could only stare at the human soldiers with hostility. They didn’t dare stop them at all.

Soon, they arrived at the biggest tree castle at the center of the forest.

“His Highness is resting! Please leave!” The elven soldiers guarding the tree castle block them.

“How dare you guys stop me! Scram before I pull my sword!” Lucia angrily shouted at the soldiers.

The soldiers felt nervous when they saw her getting angry, but they still didn’t allow them to enter. “Please don’t make things difficult for us, Miss Lucia.”





“Let them enter!” A calm voice suddenly echoed from inside the tree castle.

When the soldiers heard this, they backed down and allowed Lucia and the others to enter, but they blocked the human soldiers from entering including Ramiel.

“Miss Aenwyn, just shout if you need our help.” Ramiel whispered solemnly.

Aenwyn nodded her head and followed Lucia and Weis inside the tree castle.

“You’ve come, my little sister...”

Aenwyn stared at the handsome elf who was sitting on the throne. It was her elder brother, Callon Aracan. Behind him were three middle-aged elves who emitted strong auras.

Aenwyn’s eyes flashed with hatred when she saw Callon.

“Give her a seat.” Callon commanded.

One soldier immediately grabbed a seat for Aenwyn.

Callon stared at Aenwyn and smiled. “My lovely little sister. I thought that you were captured by the humans, but it seems like you even made friends with them.”

“Callon, I’m not here to talk nonsense with you! Release Her Majesty and the others! I’ll bring them out of here!” Aenwyn said in an icy tone.

One of the Elders standing behind Callon frowned after seeing how disrespectful Aenwyn was. However, Callon raised his hand and prevented them from making a move.

“My dear little sister, to think that you would one day work for a human. I never thought that the Ice Princess would actually become a human’s lapdog. How intriguing...” Callon muttered in a disdainful voice.

Aenwy furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at Callon. “I have no time to quibble with you. Release my mother and we’ll leave the kingdom. I promise that we won’t come back again. You’ll have the kingdom and you no longer have to worry about my mother’s faction.”

Callon’s eyes glinted upon hearing this. “Interesting! Interesting! Are you really willing to go that far for a human?” He knew his sister very well since he had seen her grow up from a little girl to a valiant young princess. She wasn’t someone who was willing to admit inferiority to someone her age. He wondered what kind of human her sister has met for her to change so drastically.
