Chapter 1187: Burning Forest

The Country of Law’s border, Forest of Serenity

Along with the arrival of the new day, the radiance of the sun spilled into the dense forest Green leaves covered in clear, refreshi+ng dew reflected the bright sunshi+ne At that moment, it should have been the start of a new day for all living creatures waking from their sleep But now, the forest was in total silence, with neither chirping froures flashed past the forest, sprinting ahead They were elf young ladies donned in light green cloaks, carrying giant bows made from dark broood Their faces were concealed by a raised collar and hood, but a pair of long, pointy, and twitching ears revealed their identity They lance, one could only see a trail of afteriht as air They dashed ahead, treading the fallen leaves and branches silently while blending into the green forest After a few ed looks with one another, and spread out into the surroundings

“Phew…”

Gazing at the everlasting, pitch-black sky in the distance, Corina let out a helpless sigh, gripping her bow She couldn’t be rew up But now, everything had changed As the Country of Laas afraid of any possible ambushes from the Country of Darkness, they evacuated residents of the Forest of Serenity to a safer location Meanwhile, Corina and the other elf young ladies were in charge of patrolling the border, so as to report any happenings immediately

As a matter of fact, many elves in the Country of Law didn’t believe that the Country of Darkness would launch an ambush on theraphical location, where they were surrounded by towering es Besides, there were innumerable paths that only elves were able to climb and travel on Moreover, under the protection of the twin dragons and the vitality enchanted field of the Elf Forest,as they didn’t bother others, others wouldn’t mess with them Elves were pretty much uninterested in the outside world and only hoped to lead their own lives They thought they had nothing that could cause a war to break out, but Corina clearly knew that the truth was otherwise

As a representative of the Country of Laas sent and stationed in the Land of Atonement, Corina personally experienced the war between the Country of Darkness and Land of Atoneh she viewed the situation from a neutral standpoint and didn’t participate, she had a deeper understanding of wars from the experience

Corina recalled the words Rhode said to her back then in the Land of Atonement

“Actually, wars are really simple”

Corina re above the city wall and overlooking the hell-like battlefield below The putrid smell of death was unbearable for an elf like her But despite that, Rhode put up an expressionless face

“We give various , and after the war But it is a pity that everything is less, be it for peace, freedom, survival, justice, or any other foolish reason All in all, war is a product that cannot co, where if a consensus cannot be reached, they will resort to hurling punches Perhaps one may bleed, break some bones, or lose one’s life, but in fact, it is actually avoidable if one gives it soht breaks out We always read about historians in history booksthe what-ifs… and that the ill not break out But it is a pity that there are no ifs in history Humans can never compromise with one another, just like how you can never convince a wolf to not eat er’s den We are standing here to not be conquered and destroyed while they are here to conquer and destroy us There is only one fundamental reason for this war to break out And that is, we’re standing here…” Rhode said, pointing his finger at the foot of the city wall Then, he extended his arht sky “… and they’re standing there It is just that si here

Corina turned to the forest around her and shook her head helplessly After Rhode becaon, the Void Territory and Country of Law had contacts on a higher level, which hy Corina returned to the Elf Forest after she was relieved fro her resignation report, she stated that she was concerned over the aggressive aht that the Country of Law should increase their vigilance However, most elves dis in others’ business To most elves, there was no need for the Elf Forest to worry about the possibilities of being attacked by other nations As a matter of fact, even at this point in tions ordered the evacuation of the residents of the forest, the elves treated the matter as a ‘just in case’ They didn’t truly believe that the Country of Darkness would attack the Country of Law

Corina had no other way around her overly optimistic and naive cohts If one never left this forest, one would feel like the entire world was peaceful and had no conflicts The indifferent personality of elves also ensured that they wouldn’t exchange bloith one another over small matters like shrews Due to this reason, elves put theht that the rest of the world was similar to the Elf Forest in terms of environment However, only an elf like Corina who traveled abroad and experienced wars had a deeper understanding of the trueof life As for the hothouse flowers, no matter how Corina convinced them, it would be useless unless they experienced wars for themselves

“Mada ladies shuttled out fro lithely beside Corina

“Everything is nor her subordinates’ report, Corina pondered for a while Then, she nodded and said
