Chapter 168 - The Elven Queen’s Past (1/2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although the Elven Queen said nothing, her expression said it all.
All of this was seen by Mike.
The Centaurs were a native race, and players could not choose that race.
Moreover, the Centaurs were very rare in Second World.
It could be said that the Centaur tribe was even more mysterious than Tree Spirit Village.
Therefore, it was the first time Mike had heard the term “soul stone”.
Although he did not know much about it, Mike could guess that this soul stone was something very important.
The atmosphere became a little strange.
The Elven Queen asked with a serious tone, “How did you know about this?”
Kordontimus did not answer the question directly.
“You don’t have to worry about that. You just need to answer yes or no.”
After a moment of silence, the Elven Queen finally nodded.
Kordontimus smiled slightly and nodded. “In that case, it’s not strange.”
He slowly turned around and walked to the edge of the cliff step by step. As he walked, he said,
“The Centaurs used to be a race that loved peace. But as they developed, the Centaurs grew stronger and stronger, and disagreements appeared.”
Mike and the Elven Queen looked at each other and followed Kordontimus’s footsteps. They listened to him quietly.
“Soon, the Centaurs split into two factions. One was the war faction. They were very dissatisfied with the Centaurs hiding despite their strong strength.”
The Elven Queen nodded and said a name.
“Richards Gerald, he is the leader of the war faction of the Centaurs.”
Kordontimus nodded and continued, “That’s right, Gerald’s attitude has incited many Centaurs. They are not satisfied with the crowded small territories, and they want to expand their home.
“But the other faction disagreed with them. They thought that war was an endless cycle. Today, the Centaurs defeated the Goblins. Tomorrow, the Centaurs could still be defeated by other races.”
Hearing this, the Elven Queen’s expression turned ugly.
However, Kordontimus continued to explain.
“So, the two factions split. Their respective leaders led their clansmen and went their separate ways, becoming two completely different groups of Centaurs.
“And the soul stone that protected their growing strength was also split into two on that day.”
Kordontimus slowly turned around, his eyes as sharp as an eagle’s as he looked at the Elven Queen.
“And you, after the Centaurs defeated the Goblins, attacked their main faction and took away their soul stone.
“You even found the main faction…”
“Enough, stop talking.”
The Elven Queen’s face turned even paler.
She did not know how this secret was discovered. The old man in front of her was a mere human.
Moreover, this incident happened more than 200 years ago!
How could a human know about this?!
Kordontimus was silent for a moment and asked,
“Ulysses Sabrina, this is a choice that you must face.
“Will you continue hiding the soul stone for the sake of your Elven Queen position.
“Or will you return the soul stone to the Centaurs in order to survive?”
Hearing this, the Elven Queen Sabrina pursed her lips and did not speak. Her heart seemed to be struggling.
Mike, on the other hand, roughly made some guesses after hearing this.
It seemed that this Elven Queen’s status had been obtained through some improper means.
Mike was very clear.
To give up something obtained through improper means required a lot of determination.
Or the other way around.
