I Ascend To the Throne of God with Arcane Magic - Chapter 412

Chapter 412 Elf Elders and the Secret of the Royal Court

 Acort City, the place where the elves live,

Li Si looked at the old elf who walked in, a little curious.

He was wearing a white-gold robe. The robe was like moonlight pouring down. It could be seen that it was made of the best special materials and had been highly enchanted, making it equivalent to a high-level magic equipment.

The face of the old elf man is covered with wrinkles, and those wrinkles are deeply carved on his face, like the bark of an ancient tree, recording the vicissitudes of time. His long golden hair has been delicately styled and draped behind his back, and his golden eyes are shining. Full of traces left by the years.

Elves are long-lived species. Elves with this appearance have spent countless years and are about to reach the end of their lives.

Generally, elves of this age will stay in the depths of the Elf Forest, quietly waiting for the end to come, waiting for their souls to ascend to the kingdom of elves and gods.

The old elf who walked in, although he was old, his steps were still steady, and he was surrounded by deep magic pressure.

He is also a gold-level mage, and his strength is not weak, although he is not as powerful as Xander Valdivia whom he met before.

Li Si knew what was going on and stood aside without making a sound.

　　When Cecil saw the old elf walking in, he quickly stood up and bowed.

 “Elder, thank you!”

The old elf also saw Cecil, frowned slightly and looked a little unhappy, but still said:

“You are Cecile Arce, I didn’t expect you to come here quite quickly.”

Nodding towards Cecil, the old elf walked to the armchair and prepared to sit down.

At this moment, the old elf noticed Lis behind Cecil and was stunned for a moment.

“Who is this”

 The old elf was a little unsure and asked hesitantly in an old voice.

“This is Lord Lis Kane, who protected me all the way from Nelin City to here.”

As if thinking of something, Cecile quickly added:

“Lord Lis once helped an elf and was protected by the goddess Fenriya.”

 “So that’s it.”

The old elf’s expression became serious, he clenched his left fist on his chest and bowed slightly towards Li Si.

“Your Excellency Li Si, it’s an honor to see you here.”

 “May the glory of the goddess Fenria always protect your future!”

 “You’re welcome.”

Li Si was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted and said with a smile.

 “I don’t know what to call you?”

 “I am Riccardo Elicer, welcome to be here as my guest.”

Riccardo looked at Li Si and said, with a smile on his always stern old face.

After a brief exchange of greetings, the three of them sat down on the chairs and enjoyed the exquisite pastries that had been prepared.

Li Si noticed Riccardo’s attitude towards him and made predictions in his mind.

There is no doubt that the Riccardo in front of him is an important member of the Ilisel Sun Elf family, and he is a Sun Elf with pure blood.

From Cecil’s previous experience and Riccardo’s attitude when he entered the house just now, it can be seen that the sun elves of the Elisir family seem to be relatively old-fashioned, a bit like those old antiques among human nobles.

 For this reason, although it has been a long time since the incident, their attitude towards Cecile is still not very good.

 But at the same time, because they respect and believe in the elven gods, their attitude towards Li Si, who is protected by the elven goddess, is indeed quite good.

It has to be said that the contrast is somewhat obvious.

Even Li Si didn’t expect this to happen, but he didn’t mind. After all, it was also good for him, and he might be able to get more information about the Elf King’s Court.

“Elder Riccardo, I don’t know why you asked me to come to Arcot City?”

 After Cecile sat down, he asked Riccardo.

 This is what she is wondering about. What happened to make the Sun Elf family Ilisel so aggressive.

　　I learned from the moon elf Daphne that I met by chance that even the elf king’s court, Drono City, was closed, which made Cecil feel uneasy all the time.

Especially when she was attacked by the gold-level assassin, the fear in Cecil’s heart became more and more intense.

 It was only because Li Si was always by her side that she felt at ease.

Riccardo did not answer directly, but looked at Li Si with some hesitation.

This is a secret belonging to their Elisir family and even the Elf Royal Court. Even if Lis was recognized by the goddess Fenriya, he would not feel comfortable telling Lis these secrets.

Li Si noticed Riccardo’s expression. If it were for other matters, he might have left directly, but this was not an option.

This may be quite closely related to the destruction of the Elven Court, and he cannot miss the opportunity to get follow-up information from Riccardo.

“I heard from Cecil that someone was attacking the Sun Elves. This time when we were passing through the Elf Forest, we also encountered a gold-level assassin who was about to assassinate Cecil, but I stopped him.”

 “There is actually a gold-level assassin who is planning to assassinate Cecile?”

Riccardo’s expression changed and he could no longer care about other things. He quickly looked at Cecile:

 “You were attacked by someone. By whom?”

Cecile was a little nervous and looked at Li Si without saying anything.

“No, I killed the gold-level assassin and didn’t say anything before he died.”

 “Is that so?”

Hearing this, Riccardo’s face became gloomy, as if he had remembered something important.

“Your Excellency Li Si, did you notice anything unusual at that time?”

 After thinking for a moment, Riccardo looked at Li Si and asked.

“Forgive me for my offense, because this matter is really important to our Elisir family?”

“Could you please let me know why you care so much about this matter?”

“Why did those people attack Cecile? Has the same thing happened before?”

Facing Li Si’s inquiry, Riccardo was silent for a moment, seeming to be debating whether to tell Li Si these secrets.

 Finally, Riccardo held his right hand tightly, his wrinkled face full of seriousness.

“Your Excellency Li Si, you are a person recognized by the goddess Fenriya, and you have also intervened in Cecil’s affairs.”

“I won’t hide these secrets from you anymore, but these secrets are related to the safety of the Elisir family. I hope you will not tell other people about these secrets after hearing this.”

Looking at Riccardo’s serious expression, Li Si didn’t pay attention and nodded to make a commitment.

Riccardo sighed, leaned back on the wicker chair, remained silent for a while, and said with difficulty:

“That was half a year ago. A shocking case occurred in the Elf King’s Court.”

“A member of the Elisir family disappeared, and there was no news for more than ten days. No one paid attention at first, until someone later went to visit the man and found him dead at home.”

“There was something wrong with the elf’s death?”

Li Si nodded and asked softly.

“Yes.”

Riccardo looked ugly and continued:

“When the elf was discovered, his face was horrified, as if he had faced something extremely terrifying. At the same time, his body was shriveled, and all the blood in his body had disappeared.”

 “All the blood is gone”

Li Si murmured to himself, thinking of the [Original Blood Crystal] he got from the gold-level assassin’s storage ring. It seems that the same force should have taken action, and the target was the blood in the bodies of the sun elves.

“What do you mean, the same thing happened again later?”

“Um.”

Riccardo nodded and said gloomily:

“After all, it was the death of a Sun Elf, and the cause of death was unclear. Of course, the Elf King’s Court had to investigate it carefully at that time.”

“But no matter what, we haven’t found the person who did it, nor have we found any clues.”

 Riccardo had a frustrated look on his face, and Li Si also noticed it.

However, the Ilisel family, as the ones who control the Elf Royal Court, are naturally the most powerful force in the city. In the Elf Royal Court, there are people who dare to attack the sun elves of the Iliseul family to extract their blood. This is simply putting the Ilyseer family’s face on Completely trampled underfoot.

“After that incident, the Pompeii chief summoned most of the elf royal court to search, but in the end they returned without success.”

The elf elder in front of him said helplessly. He was one of the participants at the time and was also angry about it.

Every member of the Ilisel family is an extremely precious being. The sun elves are equivalent to the high-ranking royal family in the Elf Kingdom. Who would have thought that there would be such a bold person who would take action against the people of the Ilisel family.

  But the Elisir family has no solution yet, and no clues have been found no matter what means they use.

Even if a legendary powerhouse takes action, there will be no results, as if the elf committed suicide. “Just one month later, everyone in the Elven Court was about to give up, when another similar case appeared.”

“He is also a descendant of the Elisir family. When he was found, he was hung on a big tree beside the road to the Elf King’s Court. Likewise, all the blood in his body disappeared.”

“After that, the same thing happened many times, and the person who did it was never caught.”

“Are the people who attack the Sun Elves doing it for the blood of the Sun Elves?”

 Listening to Riccardo’s description, Li Si nodded.

If this is the case, then no wonder the Elisir family reacted so exaggeratedly.

Although the Ilisel family is a sun elf family, due to the special nature of their bloodline, there are not many members in the entire family, and they are even considered rare.

 The mysterious deaths of many sun elves were simply a provocation to the Ilisel family, and also greatly affected the strength and future of the Ilyseer family.

 “Unclear.”

 Riccardo’s face didn’t look good, but he still answered.

“If someone really wanted to get the Sun Elf bloodline of the Elisir family, there would be no need to kill so many people.”

“What’s more, isn’t he afraid of being discovered by us?”

Riccardo said angrily, his face turned red and he did not look like an old man.

 It seems that the occurrence of this series of attacks has indeed made the Elisir family very angry.

There have been cases in the past where outsiders wanted to acquire Sun Elf blood. This is not unusual in the history of the Elf Kingdom.

Even not just alien races, even the interior of the Elf Kingdom is not monolithic. There are also people who covet the legendary Sun Elf bloodline.

 For this reason, the Elisir family was actually not very panicked when they discovered the first incident, but as the situation worsened uncontrollably, they eventually became highly nervous.

The most important thing is that the mastermind behind the incident has never been found, which gives the Elisser family a huge headache.

This is a very unmagical thing. In the Elven Court, the headquarters of the Ilisel family, where there are also legendary powerhouses, people were allowed to kill several sun elves openly without any trace being found.

 This was simply unthinkable before.

“Then why do you appear here and ask Cecile to come here as well?”

Li Si asked next, but he already had a rough estimate in his mind.

“Because we also received a summons later that the sun elves who were traveling in the family were also killed and deprived of their bloodline.”

“Although the sun elf is young, he also possesses gold-level strength.”

“If he has no power to resist, then everyone outside the family will be in an unsafe situation.”

Riccardo said in a deep voice, and then looked at Cecile.

“Cecile, I understand your affairs very clearly. Let’s put aside the past rights and wrongs for now. The family cannot tolerate any more members being killed by others.”

“I asked you to come here for your safety. After all, it is too dangerous for you to be alone in Nelin City. The family is preparing to recall all members who are outside and return to the Elf King’s Court.”

“The family’s strength has been dispersed to members who are traveling abroad. I originally thought that your appearance was different from that of the sun elves, and the manpower was quite tight, so I was unable to arrange for manpower to **** you.”

“But I didn’t expect someone to attack you on the way. This was my mistake.”

As he spoke, Riccardo took out an emerald green leaf from his body, with a few dewdrops shining dreamily on it.

As soon as this young leaf appeared in the room, vitality instantly permeated the entire room. A light natural breath spread, and Li Si felt his body relaxed a little.

Feeling the vigorous vitality and faint sense of pressure on the young leaves, Li Si was a little stunned.

This is not really what he thought, is it?

Cecile, who was on the side, was stunned. She felt that her whole body was responding to the power fluctuations on the young leaves.

Before Cecile could react, Riccardo handed her the young leaves in his hand.

“This is a talisman made by Lord Nemancha [Forest Prayer]. It has legendary level of protective power.”

 “You have to keep it by your side, do you understand?”

 “Isn’t this a little too precious?”

Cecile looked at the jasper-like young leaf and shook her head a little off guard.

 In her impression, the people of the Elisir family were all stubborn old stubborns, who strongly opposed the union of his father and mother, and their attitude towards her was not much better.

 Some people even think that her existence has tarnished the Sun Elf bloodline of the Elisir family.

Although the elder Riccardo in front of her was a little stiff in attitude, he was already much better, not to mention that he taught her such a legendary prop.

This made Cecile a little unacceptable for a while.

Li Si was not surprised. Although legendary-level props were precious, they were not unobtainable for the legendary Elisir family.

 The most important thing is that the situation has now deteriorated to an extent that the Elisir family cannot bear. The death of any family member is an extremely tragic loss.

 Even Cecile is the same.

 That’s why they pay such a price.

Riccardo put the young leaves directly into Cecile’s hands, turned to look at Lis, and said sincerely:

“Your Excellency Li Si, after hearing what I said, you should understand how much the Ilisel family attaches great importance to this matter now, right?”

 “This is a matter of life and death for the family!”

“And now, you are the only person who has seen and fought with the attacker. On behalf of the Elisir family, I must ask you, can you tell me the information about that person?”

Li Si looked at Riccardo who bowed slightly after finishing speaking, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

To be honest, even if he was protected by the elf goddess Fenriya, he would not let an elder with a high position in the elf royal court behave like this.

This shows how embarrassed the Elisir family has been forced to be now.

“I don’t know much about anything else, but what is certain is that the attacker is human.”

“Humanity?”

Riccardo furrowed his sparse eyebrows, finding it hard to accept.

Elves mostly have a bad view of humans. After all, the existence of the Elves Slave Catching Group is indeed a dark history that cannot be erased.

But human forces were able to attack the Sun Elves in the Elf Court and leave no clues.

No matter how you think about it, it is too outrageous. Even the churches of the gods of the human pantheon do not have the power to do such a thing in the Elven Court.

Rather than talking about humans, Riccardo prefers to believe that it was a party within the elves that hired human professionals to attack members of the Elisir family outside the Elf King’s court.

Li Si looked at Riccardo’s expression and guessed that the other person might not believe what he said.

After thinking about it, Li Si decided to reveal some information:

 “While I was chasing the assassin, the aura of the abyss appeared on that man’s body.”

“What?”

 “The breath of the abyss?”

Riccardo’s eyes widened and he looked at Li Si in disbelief. He even stood up from the wicker chair.

Demon of the Abyss?

 Are they involved in this matter?

Riccardo was in a state of confusion for a moment. Neither he nor the rest of the Ilisel family had thought of this possibility.

 Cecile on the side also looked at Li Si in surprise. She didn’t know the news either.

 “Sir Li Si, are you sure?”

Riccardo looked at Li Si and asked, his trembling hands showing that he was not calm inside.

“Of course, I can be sure that it is an assassin who has fully accepted the power of the abyss, and I will definitely not be mistaken about the aura of corruption.”

Li Si nodded and said firmly.

“Sir, Mr. Li Si, it’s not that I don’t believe you, it’s just that this news is too unexpected.”

Riccardo stood up, paced back and forth in front of Lis, and finally said to Lis:

“Your Excellency Li Si, could you please wait here for a moment? I must now pass this information back to the Elf King’s Court.”

“If possible, I would even like to ask you to come with me to the Elf King’s Court.”

Looking at Riccardo’s pleading eyes, Li Si felt numb for a moment.

 Going to the Elf King’s Court at this time?

Isn’t that going to die?
