Chapter 82: Lord with Outstanding Qualities

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Odom waited for the subordinates to leave after meeting William and Princess Annie, and then he too made his departure. He had to look after the expansion of the city.

The space mage, Band, did not want his princess to live in a broken place in the City of Dawn.

He chose a good spot in the new city. Then he took out a small box, the one in which he had stored the shrunken Moonlight Tree. He replanted the Moonlight tree in that location.

As expected,

In just a while, the palm-sized tree grew into a massive 300-meter tall one. It, undoubtedly, shocked many civilians.

Their respect towards the Lord increased. They believed that even such a powerful mage had to listen to the commands of the Lord…

Annie did not have that many conversations with William. Although their affinity had reached over 600, no strange thoughts existed between them.

After all, in Elfin age, they were still minors. It would take some time before they reached maturity. Things like love were still far away.

What about the great Lord William, Lord of the City of Dawn,?

He was not an adult.

He was only 16 years old.

He was a young half-elf.

Thus, for now… he could not get hard…

Luckily, William did not care about it. To the current him, his strength and the development of his territory were most important.

“Lord, what about the boat blueprint? Isn’t this slightly different from our objectives?” Lautner looked rather worried.

“Blueprint? What blueprint? Did I say that I wanted a blueprint?” William raised his eyebrows.

“…” Lautner pondered deeply about it. He was thinking whether he had remembered wrongly. But he kept quiet. Rebuttal was not something a good subordinate should do.

When William saw his troubled expression, he laughed out loud. “Relax. I know what you are worried about, I’ve thought about it. But now, all we have to do now is look forward to it.

“We are still going to develop the pier, but I don’t need a blueprint any more.”

“Why?” Lautner was confused. He could not understand his Lord’s mind. What ingenious plan had he come up with now?

“There are some royal builders under Annie. One of them is a master level shipbuilder!” William slapped the table in excitement. He had not expected Annie to have so many people under her.

The King of Moonlight Elves was the man behind this. He had done so to pave the way for Annie’s future. These people under her would become dowry, if she chose to marry a Prince!

“That old King elf is not dumb. Looks like he had already realized the problem with his sons. But he was not cruel. He was not as decisive as when he was younger either.”

The Moonlight Elves lived on the center island of the legendary continent. Around them was a boundless lake that seemed as vast as an ocean.

But these Moonlight Elves, who seemed to be in the least danger, were the first elfin race to be defeated in the legendary continent.

When the new Elfin King, Cronus, rose to the throne, the Moonlight Forest seemed safe and sound. But some stronger elves were slowly eroded by the darkness. Even some true legends drowned into the darkness.

Yes.

In the second version, darkness was not present in the borders of the legendary continent.

It was like the dark creatures that the City of Dawn faced, weak and not worth mentioning.

But soon the darkness that caused people to despair seeped into the human nation. It even reached the Moonlight Forest, a place that had once triumphed over the dark creatures.

That was the true arena. That was the place that would provide players with countless Instance Dungeons in the future.

It was because of this that the legendary continent became embroiled in war. As a result, the Iron Nation was not able to obtain backup troops. They continued to be eliminated by the dark creatures!

Cronus. He was the Elfin King who had been consumed by darkness.

He was the one who used the bones of his people to create his throne of bones.

He used the blood of his people to summon an army of darkness.

He had sacrificed thousands of souls from his people to create a Wailing Sword for himself. He was the king of that era. He was the god of death who had not fallen even after several versions… Cronus!

Darkness continued to pervade, and over millions of Moonlight Elves were eliminated.

Although Cronus was the main reason for it. Another cause of these terrible deaths was that some other princes did not avoid war.

They thought that light would triumph over evil, and started many wars that people could not understand why. The number of Moonlight Elves casualties was over 5 million.

“The elves used their blood and their lives to prove to the world that they are not afraid of war. Even if their enemy is the King that they had once pledged loyalty to, they would still march forward.”

“Even if the enemy is so strong that they cannot defend themselves.”

“They will still rush into battle without fear. They will not retreat…”

“But their deaths were far too saddening!” As William thought about this, he could not help but be sad.

There was no choice.

He was too engrossed in the game back then, the epic feelings were too heavy for him.

At that instance, all the players were losing at the low-end battlefields. They did not even have a chance to participate in the battle at the main arena.

When a few news anchors heard the news, they used various methods to rush there as soon as they could. They simply wanted the popularity that’d come from it.

But they used a different method to record scenes that were difficult to forget.

The mighty, surging battle. The imperial hall, stained red with blood. The heroism displayed by the Moonlight Elves who, regardless of their gender, valiantly fought their way to victory.

This touched the hearts of players watching this battle. If the players were not also involved in the battle of darkness, not many people would participate in this epic battle.

Because they would die.

But the players were not that afraid of their deaths.

They were more afraid of seeing the lively NPCs being sent to their deaths, one by one.

Ten years of playing games, but inside the game, it was greater than ten years. William could not dismiss the history he had seen, and memories that he had formed.

Lautner saw that William had once again sunk in deep thought. He quietly stood at the side…

Knock knock knock.

Nox opened the door and ran into the meeting room. He immediately said, “Lord, a messenger from the Iron Nation has come.”

“Messenger?”

“Yes. He came with 100 soldiers on horses outside the city and claims to be a diplomat from the Iron Nation. He says he has something to discuss with you, my Lord.” Nox explained.

“Something to discuss, is that so?” William laughed. “Wait for me to finish my lunch. After that, bring them to see me.”

“Yes, my Lord!” Nox retreated from the meeting room.

Lautner said in a low tone, “It looks like they do not come with kind intentions. Should we start preparing for war?”

“I have never been an executioner. I don’t begin wars, not unless they have brought their entire army to our city gates. In that case, I will bully them intolerably.” William picked his eyebrows and continued. “They should have seen the scene outside the city. Do you really think that the Iron Nation really dares to attack us?”

When Lautner heard these words, he suddenly understood. He became shocked and could only nod as he walked out.

“Executioner? Needless to say, every single word the Lord says is very profound.” Lautner recalled those tribes which William had executed. Suddenly, he looked up at the sun and felt gratified. As expected, only a lord with outstanding qualities would allow him to develop greatly.
