Chapter 1153: Another visit



"Are you sure that you should just leave them like that?"

That was a question that was asked to me several times as we were leaving, but I just told them that it was fine.

The Elven Kingdom delegation had already been connected to Chris and Leon from the Holy Empire, so there was nothing else that was left for me to do.

In this situation, I didn't really have a say since I was just the king of a small kingdom.

It was up to the Holy Empire that was one of the four empires of the human race to take care of this matter with the Elven Kingdom. Only they would have enough influence to convince the other human empires to accept the alliance with the elves and giants.

So even if I remained, it wouldn't really help.

Though I did see the way that the high elf, Tasha had looked at me as we left.

From the interaction that I've had with her over the past few days, I had learned that she was a female and that her name was Tasha Bloodrose.

All of these high elves seemed to have these long names, but the thing that I paid attention to the most was the fact that Tasha was a woman. It was a fact that was a bit hard to believe because of the figure that she had.

In fact, I had even done a double take and confirmed this.

Though when I did, there was a dark look that appeared on her face.

That was the first time that Tasha had reacted like this, it was even the first time that she had shown any kind of emotion.

It seemed that this was a sensitive issue for her.

But still, that didn't matter to me since I didn't have anything to do with her during this time.

That was why I was currently heading off to the Merman Empire.

The trip was quite smooth since we took the same route as before and since we were familiar with the route, we also knew what to look out for so that no one would catch us.

When we arrived on Peace Island, it was the same as before where there wasn't anything here. It was clean just like the last time, but there was not a single soul that was here.

So Ariel did the same thing and used the conch shell to summon the guards from the Merman Empire.

When they appeared, they were surprised to find Ariel here.

"Your highness, is there something wrong? Why are you back again?" The guard that led this group asked this question.

Ariel didn't say anything as she turned to look at me, as if she was letting me speak.

Of course, I had expected this since I was the one that had insisted that we come to Peace Island and the Merman Empire. It was only natural that she would turn to me to let me say why we were here.

The mermaid guards all turned to look at me and this time, they didn't seem that friendly. The way that they looked at me was as if there was a trace of hostility.

It was as if they thought that I had brought Ariel here for something bad.

I just calmly said, "I'm here to discuss something with the Merman King. Can you please contact him and tell him that we're here? I wish to discuss this matter in person."

The mermaid guards didn't seem like they liked the way that I said this, but they didn't reject

my request.

It was clear that they were only doing this because Ariel was with me.

But that didn't matter since I had accomplished my goal.

After a while, the Merman King and Queen came out of the ocean and appeared in front of us.

Before I could say anything, he looked at me and said, "So you're here. We've been expecting you."
