Chapter 935: The Extinction of Dark Demon and Moon Elemental (4k)
Dark found it hard to control his affection for this type of golem. He rubbed his head to calm himself down and continued walking forward. There was no one to stop him from doing anything.
Even during military exercises, he did not have to avoid them.
As he walked and observed, after a while, he suddenly heard faint music.
Looking in that direction, a burst of flame light rose into the sky.
It was a huge bonfire rising from afar. “They are really having a feast?”
Dark realized he had completely lost track of the Elemental Race’s thought process.
Continuing forward along the direction of the bonfire, the surroundings gradually became livelier.
The faces of the passing elemental race members showed more smiles. “Who could be so popular?”
Dark grew increasingly curious and couldn’t help but quicken his pace. Soon enough, he finally arrived at the scene of the bonfire feast.
The place looked like a campsite, with the elemental race members forming a circle around the bonfire, singing and dancing.
Dark scanned the area and finally saw Aurora and others among the crowd, which put his worries at ease.
“Hey!”
A small, delicate hand suddenly appeared, slapping his shoulder from behind.
Dark instantly turned his head and saw a mischievous ghost face.
He immediately acted as if he was scared, followed by hearing Professor Lily’s hearty laughter.
“It seems they’re having a great time here, even forgetting about everything else.” Dark thought about how he had been struggling since morning to cooperate with the other two factions, and felt somewhat annoyed.
He grabbed Lily and asked, “Professor Lily, what’s going on?” Lily laughed playfully and said, “There’s nothing much. The elemental race warmly welcomed us. Do you want to dance?”
Ignoring Professor Lily’s dance invitation coldly, Dark pressed on, “Is it because of Professor Shylph?”
Lily blinked and said, “Guess.”
“I guess your big head!” Dark knocked her forehead hard. Lily held her forehead and pouted, “At first, it was Shylph… She should be considered the key. She’s an elf mage favored by the Wind Elemental King. Even without being an elf, she would still be invited. Moreover, now…”
Dark interrupted quickly, “Then what happened next?”
Lily gestured toward the crowd and said, “See for yourself.”
“I’m already looking.” Dark narrowed his eyes and stared at the crowd. Everyone else except Lily sat there, looking fine.
Professor Shylph’s disguise as Shirley Augustine was indeed very popular. Perhaps it was due to her extremely high bloodline purity, or maybe because Ophelia’s disguise technique was truly remarkable, but she seemed to have gone undetected.
Two elves with hair similar to Professor Shylph’s were sitting beside her, welcoming her warmly as if they hadn’t seen each other in ten years.
On the other side, despite being human, Professor Metia was not ignored; instead, a group of moon elves surrounded her, as if performing a divination.
But the most popular among them was… Aurora!
“Aurora, shouldn’t you only have one-fourth of the moon elf bloodline?”
Dark rubbed his forehead, unable to comprehend.
Given the Elemental Race’s aversion to half-elves, especially to someone like Aurora with mixed bloodlines, it would be considered restrained if they didn’t outright reject her.
However, the reality was completely opposite.
Aurora wasn’t even sitting—she was sitting on the lap of a moon elf priest!
The moon elf priest, dressed in a golden-trimmed robe, couldn’t be judged by age from her face, but her demeanor was noble and her aura elegant, exuding a sense of authority.
Dark knew at a glance that she was likely the leader of this branch of the elemental race!
And now, this moon elf leader was holding Aurora in her arms affectionately, as if afraid she might run away.
She spoke intimately with Aurora while continuously feeding her fruit.
That strong maternal aura flowed from her eyes.
In contrast, the Snake God Nix, who looked exactly like Aurora, was being neglected.
The mighty Snake God was eating fruit alone—though it was happily devouring dish after dish.
The stark contrast made people immediately speculate. For the Elemental Race to ignore “mixed-blood discrimination” and show such friendliness and warmth, the identity of the moon elf priest must be significant.
Their relationship was also very close. “Could it be… Is she the source of Aurora’s elemental bloodline… the moon elf who fell in love with Count Valentine?”
Dark soon learned that his guess was entirely correct.
The moon elf priest wasn’t related by blood to Aurora; she was her grandmother!
At the same time, she was the current High Priestess of the moon elves! Her status within the moon elf tribe was second only to the Queen of the Moon Elves!
“Belami Artemis!”
Dark recited the name of the High Priestess of the moon elves and, following Professor Lily, sat down with Professor Kazel and others to inquire about the situation.
Professors Kazel, Ophelia, Eralganie, and Trina were all seated together. They were completely ignored by the elemental race but enjoyed their peace.
Moreover, because of Aurora recognizing her grandmother, they all seemed quite happy.
After carefully asking, Dark finally understood the cause and course of events here.
Thanks to Professor Shylph’s prominent aura, the professors were invited into the forest without any hindrance.
Immediately, an elf sensed the presence of the Wind Elemental King from Professor Shylph, and they were then invited by the High Priestess of the moon elves, receiving VIP treatment.
Unlike Dark’s scheming, they sailed smoothly from the start, encountering no setbacks.
The High Priestess of the moon elves confirmed in the second minute upon seeing Aurora that the girl before her was her blood-related granddaughter!
Decades later, the High Priestess, who had abandoned Alexander Valentine after giving birth and returned to the elemental race following tribal rules, had become completely different.
This difference was not just in thought, but also in status. Now, she had the power to control her own life and would no longer endure the constraints of outdated tribal rules.
She immediately recognized Aurora and performed a small test in front of the elemental race.
The test was called the Moonlight Adaptation Test.
It was a test developed by the moon elf tribe to select moon elves qualified to become moon priests.
Good morning.
