However, the inhabitants of the Dark-Elf Kingdom couldn't see those beautiful images because they were busy with an uprising.
That's right, the supposed pure-blooded Dark Elves were all gathered in a crowd in front of the Senate's tower. They all carried misty lamps and wore dark robes.
Even though the fog could not penetrate the kingdom because of the misty lamps that were hung outside, the pure-blooded Dark Elves still used misty lamps to see instead of torches.
That's right, they felt that since they were a noble race, they could not use torches for lighting as it wasn't befitting of their status and that they could only use misty lamps as this could also prove their wealth and nobility. They felt that only people with mixed blood like the Half-Elfs should use torches because they were too poor and couldn't afford to buy a Misty Lamp.
Back to the present, these Dark Elves had all gathered in front of the main gate of the Senate tower two hours ago. They didn't say anything as they quietly stood there.
This place had more than 10,000 Dark Elves; fortunately, the square in front of the Senate tower was very large, so it could accommodate all these 10,000 people.
However, if one looked outside the Senate tower, they would notice that there were still many other Dark Elves standing outside in the nearby streets.
Although a lot of people were standing around, they were all very serious, and they were all orderly. They didn't even enter the range of the Senate tower but gathered in the square and the surrounding streets.
There was a difference of a hundred steps or 20 metres from the square to the main gate of the tower. From the hall in front of the main gate, you could see the entire square because this was where the Senate made decisions for all the inhabitants of the kingdom.
The main door opened, and Savuo and Duraxi came out together. Savuo wore a white outfit that was extremely dazzling, and coupled with his handsome looks, he was like a shining star that attracted the attention of several girls.
Behind him was Duraxi. At this time, Duraxi was wearing a black cloak that covered his face; however, the aura he gave off was completely different from when he was in the room sealed by Savuo.
Yes, he became stronger again; however, the source of his power carried a bit of evil and hatred. At this point, Duraxi didn't look like a main character, as he now resembled an evil villain.
Savuo adorned his face with his usual fake smile as he stood on the hall and looked down at the square; his voice, which had been enchanted with sound amplification magic, then resounded.
"Darlings of the Dark-Elf Kingdom, tell me, what have you gathered here for? If you don't have a good reason, I fear you will suffer the wrath of the Senate."
At this moment, someone stepped out of the crowd; this person wore a black cloak that covered his face like Duraxi's; he knelt on the ground with one knee and spoke with hatred.
"Elder, I want to denounce the Dark-Elf Queen."
When Savuo heard that, he was secretly happy in his heart; he knew that his plan was successful. However, on the outside, he still frowned; his face showed a puzzled expression, and he asked, "Why are you denouncing the Queen? Look up; I want to see who you are."
The man kneeling on the ground took off the hat of his cloak and raised his head. As His face appeared in the light, everyone frowned and gritted their teeth, anger clearly visible in their eyes.
The face of the kneeling man was very ugly; his face was full of burns and cuts caused by a knife, one of his ears had been cut off, he was blind in one eye, and all the hair on his head had been burned off.
"Are you…" Savuo pretended to ask.
The one kneeling on the ground said, "Elder, I am Oynix, son of Elder Onaro."
"Oynix? Onaro? What happened?" Savuo's voice was filled with worry and concern as he asked.
Oynix gritted his teeth; he did not answer Savuo but continued: "Elder, I know you are always fair and that you are always worried about the people of this kingdom. That's why, today, I want to denounce the Queen.
"I use my name and my life to accuse the Queen of aiding the Half-Elfs to infiltrate the Kingdom; they killed Elder Onaro and my entire family."
"Because Elder Onaro used to own a lot of Half-Elf slaves. Even though they were slaves, elder Onaro, my father gave them a safe place to live and enough food."
However, they were not grateful for that; they joined forces with the invaders to set fire to our house; they burned our house down and killed all of my family members after they tortured us. "The reason I look like this now is due to those bastards."
"Fortunately, the royal army came to my rescue at that time, or else I would be dead."
"If the Queen hadn't tolerated letting those non-pure people live around our kingdom, things like this wouldn't have happened."
"Elders, think about it. If they dared to attack and kill the family of a member of the Senate today, they will definitely do more terrible things in the future."
"If this continues, I'm afraid they'll take over the kingdom in the future." They will use their diluted blood to stain this kingdom.
"Elder, we ask you to help us." The Queen does not care about the inhabitants of this kingdom, as she only helps the hybrids, who are only worthy of being slaves.
"Elder, I think the time has come to overthrow the Queen. "Elder, you always take care of us; if you banish the mixed-bloods, I vow to make you king."
"We will help you overthrow that damned queen."
Right now, all the people gathered here knelt on the ground, bowed their heads, and spoke in unison.
"We will make you the king, so please help this kingdom."
When Savuo saw these scenes playing in front of him, he was extremely happy in his heart. This is what he wanted to see. Of course, the things that happened did not occur the way Oynix described them.
In fact, although half-elves have the ability to use magic, they do not have the conditions to learn magic, so their power is not great. Also, they are weaker than humanity because they don't have any libraries or academies of their own.
They live aimlessly and move around. If the place where they live runs out of food, they will move to another place; their life is no different from that of nomads.
To be clear, Onaro is a member of the Senate who enjoyed the best royal treatment. Because of that, the power of the members of Onaro's family was immense.
Although they were not invincible, any member of the Onaro family could kill 100 Half-Elfs; even a 10-year-old child in Onaro's family could kill a mature Half-Elf.
Besides, the half-elves serving Onaro's family were all slaves of Onaro's family.
That means they could kill these half-elves at any time, thanks to the slave contract.
Therefore, the odds of the half-elves rebelling against them were completely zero, making it less likely that those half-elves could kill Onaro's entire family.
However, the pure-bred Dark Elves don't like the Half-Elves. They consider half-elves no different from slaves or animals. So, the Queen sheltering them in the kingdom was no different from forcing them to live with animals.
The longer time passed, the greater the conflict between the pure-blooded Elves and the Half-Elves. Over 2,500 years had passed, and the conflict between them had reached a terrible level; with just one spark, the whole thing would explode like an atomic bomb.
Even if everything was a lie and illogical, under the fire of anger burning in the eyes of the pureblooded Dark Elves, they would still support Oynix. The one thing they wanted was to not live with the half-elves, as they believed the half-elves were plotting a rebellion.
due to the anger clouding their minds. They didn't care about how the half-elves were able to kill the entire Onaro family; they just needed a reason to vent their anger.
The conflict and anger of the inhabitants of this kingdom was like a fire, as it spread from anger towards the half-elves to Selvih.
That's right, because although Selvih was the queen of this kingdom, she did not listen to the advice of the citizens; on the contrary, she allowed the half-elves to live around the Dark-Elf Kingdom.
That was what insulted and defiled the kingdom, making pure-blooded Dark Elves unwilling to accept it. However, Selvih was a cold-blooded person, so they didn't dare to speak up.
But by now, things had spiralled out of control.
Of course, the deaths of Onaro's family were all caused by Savuo; after that, he brought all the fake evidence and made it look like a Half-Elf rebellion. This was possible because he colluded with Onaro and used high-level magic to disguise his appearance.
He threw a fuse towards the conflict that had existed for more than 2,500 years, and of course, he succeeded in detonating it.
When the conflict broke out and Oynix performed his little play, the entire Dark-Elf population was triggered.
Savuo frowned, his face showing anger, and he shouted, "Nonsense." Why are you guys plotting to overthrow the queen? Do you know what you're talking about? If you leave today, I'll pretend this never happened.
"Elder." Oynix continued: "Please have mercy on the inhabitants of this kingdom. We have lived in humiliation as our kingdom has been soiled by impurity."
"Elder, only you can do this. Only you care about our voices; the Queen is no longer fit to rule this kingdom; we need someone who understands us, someone who is better suited to rule the kingdom."
Savuo was happy inside, but on the outside, he pretended to sigh, then he shook his head and said, "I know the Queen is no longer fit to rule this kingdom. However, it is easy to say but difficult to do. Do you think it's easy to overthrow the queen? If it's easy, then for the past 2,500 years, why has she still been ruling this kingdom?"
"Although I really want to take over this kingdom and make it stronger, I don't have enough power to do so."
"No!" Oynix shouted, "Elder, as long as you want, we will support you. All the inhabitants of this kingdom will support you."
"Elder, if you will, tomorrow we will unite to overthrow the queen. If she doesn't care about us, then we don't need her either."
