Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1458 The Fairy Court Gathering

the next day.

Neither Xia Duo nor Laiden said anything about the Lord of Radiance's appearance yesterday. Strictly speaking, this is already a miracle, and it should be widely announced.

But in this miracle, Leiden didn't get any benefits. Instead, he was deprived of his holy power, and he won't get anything other than attracting unnecessary prejudice if he speaks out.

As for Xia Duo, he didn't want other people to know about this experience of talking with God, so as not to cause trouble.

After this incident, the territory continued as usual, and he also returned to Severton to continue the previous local simulation test experiment of the Austrian fire device based on new materials.

Because returning to the southern border was delayed for two days, he had to hurry up to make up for it, otherwise it might affect the progress of the entire project.

……

Just when Xia Duo was obsessed with work, far away in Comanthor, the elf mages organized by Faro gathered in the Elven Court again.

It's just that this time they didn't come for the Omniscient Ceremony, but received a notification from the leader of the organizer, Farrow, that there was a new oracle.

The Elven Court in late autumn is still as green as spring and summer, and even the breeze from the swaying branches carries the unique warmth of spring and summer.

Since there were still some elves who hadn't arrived, Hilda Lanna, who arrived first, sat down on a piece of grass by the side of the village. Not far away, there was an elder elf basking in the sun.

Although the environment here is still the same, the atmosphere is not as good as before. After the establishment of the Northland Alliance, most of the elf elders chose to return to their homeland to shine again, instead of staying here to "wait for death".

Hilda Lanna had attended the welcome banquet of two elf elders in Tavimansa not long ago. Thinking that this elf court, which was supposed to be a permanent neutral land, might be fully included by Comanthor in the near future. Management, and the Cormanthor Mystic will have no gaps, Hilda Lanna has a faint, lingering sense of discomfort in her heart.

At this moment, a crisp female voice came from behind, "Hilda Lanna, can I sit here?"

Hilda Lanna looked back, frowned, but still nodded gracefully, "Of course, Master Veranse, sit down as you like!"

She recognized the person who came, Veranthor, one of the youngest senior mages in Cormanthor, but the other party's background was low, coupled with his open style, his reputation in the circle was not good.

If it was the past, Hilda Lanna would not even have the thought of looking at each other, but as she became more and more familiar with the rules of getting along with high-ranking mages, she could still speak to each other calmly.

"Veranther, just say what you want to say!"

Veranthor could hear Hilda Lanna's estrangement, but he was not moved. Instead, he sat down leisurely and said meaningfully, "I heard that you have a good relationship with Netheril?"

Upon hearing this, Hilda Lanna's breathing paused for a moment, her expression became a little unhappy, and her tone was not as easy-going as before, but became sharper:

"The Moonhorn family has a long history with Netheril, so they have a good relationship, Veranthor, what do you want to say?"

Now that the Northern Alliance has been established, the views of the elves and other countries have also changed a lot, especially for regional powers like Netheril.

Maintaining a positive attitude is already a tacit and commonly maintained political correctness.

In addition, the Moonhorn family itself has a huge trade relationship with Netheril. Even if Hilda Lanna knew what Veranthir wanted to hear, she would not follow the other party's words.

Not all high mages get on well with each other, let alone she and Veranthir belong to two countries!
"Hilda Lanna, don't be angry, it's not what you think."

Veranthor explained sincerely: "The relationship between me and Netheril was a bit stiff because of something before. Not long ago, Comanthor just signed an open trade agreement with Netheril. Although there is no clear record, I families are explicitly excluded.”

After finishing speaking, she still looked at Hilda Lanna expectantly, but this time it was Hilda Lanna who was unmoved. What is the other party trying to do?
Pretend to cover up?Or do you want her to help mediate with just one sentence?

As for the open trade agreement that Cormanthor and Netheril just signed, Hilda Lanna was a little surprised. This is actually an agreement within the framework of the Northern Alliance. It will definitely be signed, but when will it be signed and what are the specific conditions? , all need to be negotiated and decided by the parties to the agreement.

She thought that with the relationship between Netheril and Comanthor, the agreement would drag on for at least ten years, but she didn't expect it to be signed.

It was Ye Erlan, because the relationship between many high-ranking families and Netheril was not bad, even if the two sides had some discord before, they still maintained it.

But now, these high-ranking families have instead become opponents of the open trade agreement. If there is no open trade, the benefits of trade will naturally be monopolized by them.

Of course, the reason why Hilda Lanna can think about this peacefully is because the Yuejiao family is also one of them.

However, Hilda Lanna also knew that this matter could not be dragged on for too long.

In the domestic situation, they are sure to oppose it to the end, but in the external environment of the Northern Alliance, if Yeerlan behaves too differently, it may shake the confidence of the vassals and turn to other regional powers.

At least, she had heard that Irfaran seemed to be getting in touch with Shruvande, but no further news had come.

And Sluvand has always been very obedient, which didn't arouse too much reaction from Taivimansa.

……

"Veranthor, why don't you ask Your Excellency Farrow for help? Instead, come to me? Or simply fall to the crown king of Elithel. I believe that Netheril won't be too stubborn if they come forward?"

"them?"

Vilanther managed to force a smile, and said helplessly, "They hope to gain the 'understanding' of the Nethers, so they won't listen to my request!"

"What's going on?" Hilda Lanna asked curiously.

As far as she knew, even the families that had participated in the hunting of human elites, as long as they were retaliated by the Nethers, they would not be liquidated afterwards.

The Mooncrown family that Farrow belongs to is the most obvious example. The Mooncrown family that was once very keen on hunting human geniuses, after being retaliated by the Netherese, couldn't they also communicate with Netheril normally?
So what happened to Valance?
Up until now, Verancer had to tell an old story. In short, there was a conflict between the Stardew family of Komanso and the Savile Territory, and the relationship between Veranthor and the Stardew family also changed. not too good.

Therefore, Farrow planned to let the surviving members of the Stardew family flee to Severton, and bring some information to Severton that might be useful in the future.

In order to act more realistically, Veranthe, who has become a villain, had to run into the target of the Stardew family—that is, Princess Shia of Netheril who has successfully ascended to the gods.

In this situation, Veranthor guessed that either Princess Shia was embarrassing her, or the survivors of the Stardew family who were still in Severton were making things difficult.
