Chapter 420 - Episode Sixty-Six - The Ear Chief's Troops that Controls the Sky (2)(Side: Olviga)

The sky country, Alfheim, is a floating continent that exists far beyond the sky.

No ordinary person can even visit it.

The High Elves were believed to be a race created by the Sky God Silfheim.

In order to rule the world, the Sky God Silfheim wanted to create a race of people that would clearly stand above humans.

That race was the High Elves.

The High Elves had a lifespan of up to a thousand years and possessed a vast amount of magical power and magical training that no human could match.

However, as the price of their powerful race, the High Elves must receive the magical light of Moon Din or they will lose their power.

In addition, after the destruction of the four great creator gods, the Moon Din, which is believed to have been created by the Sky God Silfheim, has become far removed from the earth.

The reason why the High Elves do not leave Alfheim, the sky country, is to receive the magical light of Moon Din as strongly as possible.

The elves who were banished to the earth were not able to receive the light of the Moon Din’s magic, and with each passing generation, their lifespan, magic power, and fertility were diminishing.

For this reason, the High Elves do not like to come down to earth.

It’s not that they are indifferent to the earth. They are afraid of losing their own power.

During the wars of the Sky God Silfheim, it was not uncommon for them to hunt Norks (the common people of the earth) and tame them as pets with their own language.

To them, the Norks, whose lifespans are far inferior to their own, are no different from beasts or insects.

Locked away in the sky country, they continue to wait for the sky god Silfheim to return and take over the entire world this time.

-At the same time that Abel and Mea left the Fage territory, at the royal castle in the depths of the sky country of Alfheim, the country’s leading figures were gathered in the King’s Chamber.

On the throne sat a high elf with pale blue hair.

His face was mature, but smooth without wrinkles, and his hair was silky and beautiful.

On either side of the throne were several beautiful high elf women.

He was Olviga, the King of the Elves.

Olviga propped his elbows on his throne and looked around at the gathering.

The high elves in the crowd were rather older looking than Olviga, but he was the longest-lived …… no, of all human species in the place.

Olviga, the king of the High Elves, had been drinking Amrita, made from drops of the magical tree Alverut, for more than 10,000 years.

He is the only one among the High Elves who have seen the sky god Silfheim in person.

Olviga was equivalent to a god to the High Elves.

“Keep your head down and listen. I don’t like to see anyone but beautiful women.”

No one objected to Olviga’s arrogant words.

They listened with their heads down.

“I have been given an oracle by Lord Silfheim. In the near future, a spirit in the form of a human being will be heading to the magical tree Alverut, taking with it a follower of Moebius. Do not interfere with them …… And besides that, never let outsiders …… especially the filthy Marren, near.”

Olviga speaks with a flutter of her hand.

Even after the end of the Mythic Age, some High Elf priesthood members and royalty would occasionally receive instructions and predictions from the sky god Silfheim in their dreams.

The High Elves referred to them as oracles.

There were some who suspected that it was just the work of demons, or that it was left up to individuals, but after a long struggle, all of the oracle deniers were expelled from Alfheim, the sky country.

“And after that …… the never-ending Moon Festival Dinmei, which we have been waiting for 10,000 years, will begin. The Moon din will be as close to the earth as possible and will continue to illuminate this world day and night. Our true era will begin. It will begin again, the Blood Feast …… World War! At that time, Lord Silfheim, the Sky God will regain his body and reappear to become the god of the whole world. And I will be the king of the world!”

An evil smile shows on Olviga’s lips.

The High Elves, who had been silent until now, let out a squeal of admiration.

“We must show them that …… we High Elves are the most superior race. For starters, let’s thin out half the pigs on …… the ground. There’s no need for mercy, they are an inferior race that won’t live more than three hundred years, after all! Let’s play with them to our heart’s content!”

The High Elves clapped quietly.

After the clapping had died down, one of the High Elves spoke up.

“Lord Olviga, please forgive me for speaking out ……”

In contrast to Olviga, he had a wrinkled appearance.

He was one thousand one hundred years old, a threatening longevity even for a High Elf.

“…… Wise Goguru, let’s keep this short.”

“Yes, what should we do about the Marren, whom Lord Silfheim urged us to be wary of? “

“It will not be necessary. I don’t know how many of them are coming, but it would be a shame for a High Elf to be wary of mere Marren.”

Goguru’s faces twitched.

“But that would be disobeying the oracle ……”

“You are persistent, Goguru. It seems that you’ve become quite a big deal. You’re giving me advice now.”

“I-I have no such intention!”

Goguru rubbed his head on the floor and begged for forgiveness.

Olviga clicks his tongue and says, “Don’t think there will be a next time”.

“There are sensing wards that have been set up all over the levitated continent. It is impossible for even a demon to hide its intrusion into this heavenly land. There is no need to take any special precautions. If there is an abnormal situation, such as tens of thousands of soldiers rushing in, I can just go to them in person.”

“I, I can’t have it bothering Lord Olviga ……”

Goguru went into panic.

Olviga saw this and chuckled.

“I don’t care. It’s been a while since I’ve wanted to do something called hunting humans. Of course, I don’t want to stain this sacred ground with their filthy blood.”
