I just covet their strength

Chapter 321 Don’t you know everything?
Westhead was a little puzzled by Elorleus' attitude. Was he in a good or bad mood? He seemed to be smiling happily, but what was the reason?

It has been a long time since Westhead deliberately tried to conquer someone. Even for Resia and Myvana, he had a very deep understanding of their personalities and experiences beforehand, and was able to formulate countermeasures easily.

But this elven queen, who is younger than many humans, has almost no scenes or mentions in "The Song of Destiny". Westhead knows the information of several demons, but he really has no understanding of Eloleus.

Westhead had no choice but to make a cautious reply:
"Thank you for the compliment. I just did what I should do."

"This isn't Westhead's fault."

Eloleus tapped the edge of the teacup, signaling Westhead to drink it while it was hot, and said:
"We, the elven royal family, inherited the blood of the God Ancestor and received the will of the God Ancestor. That is why we have no resistance to beautiful things. It is normal to meet a more enthusiastic elf. I just didn't expect that even Lord Amitren would fall so quickly."

The elf loli propped her chin with both hands, and her holy blue eyes cast a clear and focused gaze, scanning and sizing up Westhead from head to toe, and exclaimed with sincere admiration:
"Oh, it's really beautiful."

It is obvious that Queen Fenglu is very fond of Westhead's image. This is normal. After all, Lord Qinghui has never met anyone he doesn't like.

But the look in Elorleus' eyes was somewhat different from that of the Bright Holy Spirit. Although they said the same thing, the unworthy ancestor really ignored everything when he saw something good and just came up to stick to her, simply because he could not withstand the backlash of the high charm attribute.

Westhead smiled and said, "Does Elorius like me too?"

"Yeah, I like it very much."

To the surprise of Lord Qinghui, the young Queen did not show any shyness, but nodded openly and admitted:

“Because it’s really beautiful!”

"But if you just like the good looks, I always feel... how should I put it, it's a bit too superficial. It feels like I've been captured by the legacy of the God Ancestor."

The blonde elf girl poked her delicate cheek with a finger, then stroked her chest with one hand:
"So I want to get to know you a little bit better, is that okay?"

"No problem at all."

Westhead answered without hesitation.

No matter what, being curious about yourself is definitely a good thing.

Curiosity is the beginning of the fall. Even if there is no strategy manual to use, Westhead will take down the Queen of Wind Law with his own strength!
Elorius clapped his hands and said:

"There is no Lord Elevit monitoring us here, so don't worry. There are no taboos in the conversation. We can talk about anything."

If you say so, I won't be polite.

Westhead said directly: "Grand Tutor, is it normal for him to be like this now? As the Lord of the Thousand Laws Royal Court, you actually let him control the Royal Court at will. To be honest, you are a bit careless."

This question was a puzzle to everyone in the royal court. After all, the Grand Tutor's arrogance had already aroused public anger, and the attitude of the Queen of Wind Tunes was to completely yield?
There is no sense of urgency that power is being threatened, so it is no wonder that there are rumors in the royal court that Queen Fenglu has become a puppet.

As soon as Lord Qinghui finished speaking, Fatizia, who was standing beside him, was startled, and her melancholy eyes, which had been lowered, widened unexpectedly.

Wait, is this a topic that can be touched upon? Even though she was already a trusted confidant of Her Majesty the Queen, she had never expressed any opinion on this matter.

"Because Sir Elevit is very loyal and capable!"

When asked such a sensitive question, Airolius' expression did not change at all, and he answered without hesitation.

The little queen swayed gracefully and deftly as she explained:

"Although Sir Elevit is very unable to read the atmosphere and is not good at interpersonal communication. He only does things according to his own ideas, but he is really a very pure guy. He is completely loyal to the King of Wind Law. Hmm, should I say loyal to the Royal Court? Or loyal to tradition?"

"That's the way it is anyway. He's the most conservative type of guy, so there's no need to worry. Besides, I've only been on the throne for a short time and I haven't even completely mastered the [Rhythm of Myriad Winds]. I don't need much power at all. In this harsh environment where gods and mortals are isolated and demons are rampant, it's great to have Lord Ilevit stabilize the situation."

Elorius swung his legs and picked up the snacks on the table with a silver fork. He parted his cherry lips slightly and took small bites of the elf's sweets that were filled with a faint floral fragrance. He said:

"We still need the Grand Tutor now. Once I have full control of the Law of the Winds, I will be able to take back the authority from him naturally."

Don't you know what's going on?!

Westhead originally wanted to test the relationship between the monarch and his subjects, but after listening to Eloleus's speech, he realized that this little lord of the royal court was not naive and ignorant of the ways of the world.

On the contrary, she knew everything and saw clearly that Westhead's prepared tactics of sowing discord had no room to play out.

It's difficult.
"I see. It seems that the Grand Tutor is also a man of loyalty to his country. I ask these questions mainly because Lord Elevit is not very friendly to me."

Elorius shook his fork and smiled, "Don't worry. As long as it doesn't harm the royal court, Lord Elevit won't take the initiative to do anything. Westhead is here to help the royal court quell the demon riot, isn't he?"

What could Westhead say? He couldn't say that he came here just to take over the magpie's nest, right?
"Of course, but it's a bit disheartening that I came to the royal court with good intentions to support him, but the Grand Tutor took precautions against me in every way."

Airolius pouted and said, "It's really too much. I don't like Sir Elevit either. You have to take care of this and that. Let's talk about it after this period of time."

A bit too honest. Is he cunning or not?
But judging from the look on Elorius' face, he was not satisfied with this "loyal minister"? He was just letting him temporarily attract firepower to centralize power, and then kick him away and happily receive the fruits of victory?
What is the art of kingship? Westhead generally doesn't think in conspiracy theories, but judging from the style of the elves in the royal court, thinking about conspiracies and calculations, and considering various exchanges of interests is their normal state.

For an elven royal family, age and appearance can never reveal his true heart.

If the Queen of Wind Melody herself is dissatisfied with the Grand Tuner, then Westhead may still be able to do something about it.

"Okay, I've answered your question, which I've never told anyone else. Now it's my turn to ask."

While Westhead was still thinking, Queen Fenglu stood up and waved her hand in front of the man and said:
"May I?"

Lord Qinghui nodded: "Well, please ask."

Eloleus was honest, and even if it was just an exchange of information, Westhead should have given him some response.

Only by knowing what the preferences of this elf loli are can Westhead prescribe the right medicine.

However, Queen Wind Law's first sentence confused Westhead:
"Why do you become a hero?"

"hero?"

"It doesn't refer to rank, it refers to character."

The Elf Queen lifted her golden braid that was against her cheek and said softly:

"Look, the achievements you made were certainly for the purpose of building a career, but if you think about it carefully, many things are unnecessary. If you only care about power and profit, you don't have to make speeches or launch expeditions. If you want to say it's a performance, you've done too much." "So, I'm curious, did you start this expedition for a noble purpose?"

It sounds like Queen Fenglu seems to be very interested in her "hero" image. Should she follow the other party's wishes and admit it, or follow her usual strategy of exchanging sincerity for sincerity and go straight for A?
Aeroleus forked up a piece of cake and brought it to Westhead's mouth:

"Is there a reason that is hard to explain? If it is too difficult, then you don't have to answer."

While thinking, Westhead unconsciously accepted the elf loli's feeding and swallowed the small cake in one gulp. This action surprised Airolius, as if he didn't expect the man to actually eat it.

Suddenly, Elorleus bit his lower lip and held up his cheeks. For the first time, a noticeable blush appeared on his beautiful and delicate little face. His long eyelashes blinked, hiding the surprise in his beautiful blue eyes.

No, what's so exciting about this?

Westhead took it all in, thinking for a moment, and then tentatively answered Airolus' question, shaking his head and saying:
"No need. This is not something shameful. I am not a selfless, noble and flawless person. I have never been one. If you think that I am saving and redeeming out of complete morality, then you really misunderstand me."

Eloris nodded and said, "There are almost no people in this world who adhere to absolute morality. Even if there are, they can't achieve the same success as you. I know this. I am not so arrogant as to demand that others' words and deeds be free of selfish motives."

"At the end of the day, I just want to accomplish great things and have the most powerful power."

Westhead finally spoke his true feelings. His deep purple eyes met the beautiful blue eyes of the elf loli, and he said firmly:

"Let everyone love me, respect me, worship me, and hold me high. In return, I will naturally spread my grace to everyone, protect them, lead them, and command them!"

"This is my purpose, not out of pity and love, but out of ambition and ideals! I bless all the creatures who praise my name!"

This was undoubtedly a bold statement, just like what Westhead had said to Mavis, but at the time he knew very well that the knight girl would like to hear this.

But if it were someone else, whether they would interpret this passage as meaning such as "audacious" or "dreaming of being on par with the Gods" is a matter of opinion.

Fortunately, Westhead guessed correctly. After listening carefully to the man's speech, Airoleus bit his lower lip with his pearly teeth, held the blushing delicate face, and said intoxicatedly after a while:

"Ahhh Westhead, do you know what this reminds me of?"

"Um, what?"

"Great love! It's the kind of great love that only a god could have! I can't bear it anymore! I want to play a song!"

"Sister Fatizia, help me get the harp."

Eloreus instructed his trusted confidant beside him.

After a moment, the Queen of Wind picked up an exquisite harp decorated with golden laurel leaves, sat on the railing of the pavilion, and sang softly:
"Ah, the hero is about to leave his hometown, far away from home to find answers. His steps are so firm and his ideals are so great!"

“The road ahead may be confusing, but it will surely be achieved; the wind of thousands of lakes and forests follows the hero far away, through the journey and over the thorns; the long wind that soothes all things crowns him and stays by his side.”

"A place without wind! A place without wind! All winds are invited because of him!"

"."

The singing voice of the Queen of Wind Law is beautiful and clear. Just by listening to it, one can feel the soul being swept by a warm torrent. It can be said that she is worthy of being the pinnacle of the path opened up by the Emperor of Thousand Laws. The song played by Elorus gives the singing a magical power that it should not have.

Westhead also immediately recognized what the elf loli was playing. It was a piece of music from the "Song of a Thousand Melody" that praised and extold the deeds of the God Ancestor.

Eroleus played it over and over again with great interest until he was exhausted.

Westhead couldn't help but applaud and said:

"It sounds really nice."

This was not flattery, he really thought so. Even with Westhead's will, he couldn't help but be affected by the sound of the performance.

Elorius stood on tiptoe and bowed slightly.

"Thank you for the compliment, but my attainments in the art of music are totally inadequate. Distorted compliments are not really compliments."

"No, Your Majesty."

The violet-haired elf who had been standing silently by the side couldn't help but speak up:

"This time. It's good. Really good."

The melancholy-looking beautiful trainer widened her eyes, which was unusual for her, and said excitedly:

"Your performance just now was beyond the expected level. You have undoubtedly made great progress in the way of music! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Airolius tilted his head and smiled slightly:
"As expected, you still need inspiration. It's better to talk to Westhead than to practice for thousands of days. Thank you very much."

Westhead: "Huh? Why is it my credit again?"

"Because it is!"

Elorius was in a very good mood, with his hands clasped behind his back.

"I got inspiration from your words and played it. It's that simple. I'll ask Westhead to talk to me more often in the future and give me inspiration."

To put it bluntly, I just want to find more opportunities to spend time with each other.

Westhead saw through Queen Fenglu's little thoughts at a glance, but this was exactly what he wanted. There was no doubt that Lord Qinghui's answer met the expectations of the elf loli. Only by spending more time together could one gain favor. Westhead readily agreed to this.

"If I have time, I will come here often."

Speaking of this, Herolus tapped his cheek again and asked:

"Oh, right. The most important thing now is the war with the Shadow of the God. Are the preparations going smoothly?"
