Chapter 5 No regrets

Then, Dereo took Arriel's hand and walked into the dance floor. Because the height difference was slightly larger, Dereo could not hold her waist while dancing, so he could only hold her hands. However, neither of them seemed to care much about such things.

However, their not caring does not mean that other high elves don't care. The Queen did not choose any young talent of the high elves, but instead chose a humble human as her dance companion. This made many arrogant elves with fragile glass hearts feel particularly difficult to accept.

That's human, but human! It's a dirty and barbaric race that is lower than the high elves. Why would the queen rather choose such a human than a high elves? Does she think a human would be better than an elves?! This is simply a provocation and contempt for the entire high elves race. Even if she is the queen, even if she is the king of the high elves, she can't do such a thing!

Next to the pair of dancers, the complaints and surprises were so loud that it was a bit unbearable. Many of the diehard elves who just felt that the revival of Usuan was hoped, shook their heads at this moment. They deducted a lot of points that had just been added to Arie's heart, which could even be said to be not worth the loss. Many of the conservative high-ranking elves who were originally planning to support Arie's have changed their minds again. They even stood opposite Arie's.

However, Arriel was very obvious and did not take these comments to heart. It was even very likely that she would not care about it after knowing the consequences of doing this. In fact, now, the elf queen could not tolerate anything else except holding her hand gently and looking at her gently.

There was a shocking look in her eyes, staring straight at the man with a mask. She was infatuated for a moment: "It's like a dream. This person, this dance... this is what I dream about!" Ariel shouted silently in her heart.

During the whole dance, after holding Dreio's hand and starting to dance, Arriel was in a trance, dreamlike state. Her steps were empty, her spirit was dazed, and her brain was almost blank. She could not do anything except being held by Dreio and kept dancing. In fact, she didn't want to do anything. She just wanted to continue, continue, or even, if the dance never stopped, it would be better.

Unfortunately, time cannot stop due to anyone's will. Even the Eternal Queen will do the same.

After half an hour, the band stopped playing, either because they were given hints from some elves, or for their own considerations, the elves bands did not change the tracks and continued to play. It seemed that they wanted to use this method to stop the dancing elves queen.

But very badly, this method failed.

The elves who completely ignored the musical squad and human combinations, and after that, they continued to perform the same dance at an inaudible beat. It is precisely because of this that the meaning of this is more serious than before... or worse. So, soon, the elves who felt that this inappropriate elves eventually had to start playing again to hide the embarrassment that makes people unable to bear it.

But Arie, who had already fallen into his own rhythm, did not dance with the music they had hoped to start playing again. Instead, they were still immersed in their own pace and the world. They kept dancing like this until the dance ended. In the end, the speech that was supposed to be Arie was not fulfilled. Looking at the complex and resentful faces of the high elves who were gradually leaving, Arie didn't seem to care at all. However, the face under Dereo's mask showed a bitter smile.

But soon, he adjusted his mood. His usual arrogance and self-pride made him not value outsiders so much: "But, it's no big deal... It's no big deal." Thinking of this in his heart, Dereo smiled again and said to Ariele, who was still a little dazed, "Let's go back too."

"Yeah." Ariel smiled from the bottom of her heart, took Dereo's hand and walked towards her room. While excited, she was also a little uneasy, so soon, she couldn't help asking Dereo:

"Teacher, I didn't do what you told me this time... Would you be angry?"

Seeing Arriel looking at her with a little uneasy look, Dereo couldn't help laughing, then reached out and rubbed Arriel's hair, saying, "How is that possible? In fact, on the contrary, I feel very relieved that you can make such a decision."

Hearing her teacher say this, Ariel feels a little relieved. But soon becomes confused again: "Why do you feel relieved?"

"Because you have your own opinions, Arie." Dereo chuckled and said, "If you listen to others in everything, then no matter how beautiful or perfect the matter is, you are just a puppet instructed by others, or a subordinate who listens to others' affairs. You are the queen of the high elf. How could you live by listening to others' opinions all your life without your own opinions?

What’s more important is that in addition to having your own opinions, you also have the courage to strengthen your confidence, not be disturbed by the outside world, and stick to your own opinions. This is even more valuable. Although I have taught you a lot, I have not mentioned the knowledge and skills in this regard. But today, I have seen all this from you. How could I not be relieved?”

Hearing the teacher said this, Ariel was really relieved and repeated the two keywords that Dereo said: "Is it independent and courage..."

"That's right. It's opinion and courage." Dereo said: "As a ruler, these two are indispensable and necessary abilities... Of course, it seems that today's behavior is a bit reckless. I'm afraid it will have some impact on your future, so you must find a way to remedy it."

Looking at Dereo's frowning and thinking carefully, Arie recalled the two words "independent opinions" and "courage" she had just learned. Then she made up her mind again and said to Dereo: "Teacher!"

"What's wrong?" Dereo's thoughts, who was still thinking just now, were suddenly interrupted. He asked her strangely.

"I don't regret it," said Arriel. "Even if everyone betrays their relatives and relatives because of this happening today, even if they can't become the eternal queen, I won't regret it."

"Are you..." Dereo was a little surprised. Ariel opposite him could clearly see that his eyes widened a lot.

"Teacher, I like you."

After saying this, Arriel rushed into Dereo's arms and hugged him tightly and did not let go.

"Uh, yes, I like you very much, Ariel. But don't say anything like being a despised by everyone and being the queen of eternity." Driel, who was hugged by her, seemed a little at a loss. Subconsciously wanted to hug Ariel. But the next moment, he thought of his plan. So he immediately controlled the ** in his body with great perseverance and determination. He shrank his arm back, and then said such words.

"That's different, different..." Ariel said while rubbing against Dereo's chest. However, although she knew the upgraded version of her opinion and courage, she was unable to say it because of the girl's reserve, so how different it was.

Arriel was just a child after all, and she had consumed a lot of energy at the dance party before. So after making a fuss like this, she fell asleep in Dereo's arms.

Looking at the elf lying in his arms, Dereo hesitated for a moment, but sighed and did nothing, so he put her on the mattress and covered her with a quilt before leaving.

In the following time, in June, the war in the north of the Old World seemed to never end. Chaos and the Empire were still hard to resolve. But in fact, the Sigma Empire, which was on the garrison, was gradually being hit by Chaos' fierce and domineering offensive, and was somewhat unable to do so. Weapons, equipment, strategies and tactics. Regarding these things, the Dukes and nobles of the Sigma Empire, including the Empire Emperor Magnus, did not think there were any deviations or mistakes.

They believe that the only reason why the empire is at a disadvantage is because of the lack of military strength. There is not enough military strength, and any strategies, tactics, and conspiracies are all nonsense. Unfortunately, the empire is a country with the main body for farming. Its mobilization ability is not like the nomadic life in the north, and it can even rely on the blessing of the evil gods to fill the stomach with such a foul. The mobilization of war is almost the limit.

So, in short, the empire needs reinforcements from allies. And it is a large number of reinforcements of hundreds of thousands or millions! Before that, a group of reinforcements sent by Batonia and the High Elves was simply a drop in the bucket and was useless.
