I Ascend To the Throne of God with Arcane Magic Chapter 483

Chapter 483 Conversation among businessmen

Time flies, and months have passed, and the aftermath of the destruction of the Elf Royal Court on the Elf Kingdom has gradually dissipated.

The elves in the Elf Forest have returned to their normal lives, as if the Elf Royal Court has completely disappeared and become a chapter in the annals of history.

The Elf Forest has been like this for thousands of years, and the quiet and peaceful atmosphere has always been the main theme here.

However, changes did occur.

In the tavern of the Emerald City,

The sunlight shines through the colorful glass windows and onto the wooden floor, shining with warm light.

Although it was not yet evening, there were already many people in the tavern toasting and drinking, talking and laughing loudly, as if nothing could stop their enthusiasm.

The air is filled with the aroma of various fruit wines and flowers, which is intoxicating.

In the corner of the tavern, a bard dressed in simple robes stood there. The harp in his hand exuded a faint light. As he gently strummed it, melodious music flowed out.

His voice is clear and magnetic, singing the legendary story of the Elf Sage Li Si who bravely fought against the Demon Prince in the Elf King's Court.

"In the elven royal court plunged into a sea of ​​blood,

Sage Li Si faced the terrible disaster alone,

His upright posture is fearless,

His deep eyes hide wisdom.

The demon prince's minions took control of the ancient city,

The shadow of the abyss sweeps over everything like a tide,

Bloody flames engulfed the entire royal court,

Endless fear spreads in everyone's heart.

But seeing Li Si step forward,

Gently wave the staff and sword in your hands,

The magical spell resounds like a song in the sky,

The abyss demons attacked the tiny figure.

But Li Si's sword dance cuts through the darkness like the wind,

Powerful magical light destroys evil,

The demon prince had no choice but to fade away in the end,

Only then can the Elf Kingdom regain its former peace.

The bard sang the deeds of Lis, the new Elf Sage of the Elf Kingdom. Even though several months had passed, many elves and humans were still happy to listen to this story.

After all, the story of a hero facing the demon prince Demogorgon is too inspiring.

Whether it is for the elves or the human caravans who come to the Elf Kingdom.

As a result, Li Si's name became known to more and more people.

A corner of the tavern,

"Nat, I didn't expect you to arrive in the Emerald City at this time. Didn't you plan to arrive in February?"

A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman poured a glass of wine for his travel-worn friend sitting opposite him and asked with a smile.

"Joseph, it's not like you don't know."

Nat drank the fruit wine in his glass in one gulp and let out a long sigh of relief.

"I set out from the Gordon Kingdom in the north. It's not as warm as the Elf Forest. I encountered several heavy snowfalls in the middle, which delayed me for a long time."

"Oh, that's true."

Joseph smiled and filled his friend's glass with fruit wine, and asked curiously:

"I heard that there is still fighting in the north. Did you encounter it when you came here?"

Nat picked up the wine glass in front of him, drank it down again, and then sighed:

"Of course."

"If it weren't for the detour, my caravan wouldn't have gotten stuck in the snow so many times."

"The Kingdom of Gordon is currently at war with the coalition forces of the Kingdom of Archibald and the Paro Federation in the Eli Hills, but it seems that the final winner should be the Kingdom of Gordon."

"That Prince Jellal is indeed a powerful commander. Without him, it would still be very difficult for the Gordon Kingdom to defeat the coalition forces of the Archibald Kingdom and the Paro Federation at the same time."

"But before I came here, I heard that the Kingdom of Kyle in the west was about to make a move, and it seemed that it also wanted a piece of the pie."

"There are also rumors that the Paro Federation wants to ask for help from the Kingdom of Fes, but I don't know if it is true."

Nat sighed and whispered.

"That's not easy."

Joseph nodded slightly and lowered his voice.

As businessmen traveling on the continent of Fanor, collecting all kinds of information is the most important thing in their daily lives.

Not only should we pay attention to the fluctuations in commodity prices in various regions, but we should also pay attention to all kinds of information related to wars and unrest.

It is important to earn wealth while traveling on the Fanor continent, but the safety of the entire caravan is the most important thing.

Therefore, businessmen will also communicate with each other about the situation at hand, and they will come and go.

Unlike Nat, the businessman Joseph is a little old and can't stand the fatigue of traveling long distances. Now he has been stationed in the Emerald City for a long time.

As for his caravan, many things have been handed over to his nephew.

However, there are still many businessmen friends who are willing to share information with him. On the one hand, their previous friendships are here, and on the other hand, Joseph has a better understanding of all kinds of information about the Emerald City and the Elf Kingdom.

"Alas, the Kingdom of Archibald also sent a team of assassins to sneak into the Kingdom of Gordon to attack. I was lucky enough not to encounter them, but some caravans were not so lucky."

"Old Moore, do you remember?"

Nat said with some sigh:

"His caravan was attacked by those assassins. I heard that only Old Moore's son survived."

Joseph nodded, he naturally remembered that shrewd guy, but he didn't expect that he had already gone to see the goddess of wealth.

"What are your plans?"

Joseph asked looking at Nat who was a little scared.

"Then what else can I do? When I go back this time, I won't come out until the war is over."

Nat shook his head dejectedly.

Of course, because of the spread of war between human kingdoms, the prices of different commodities are also rising.

The exaggerated profits make many caravans willing to take risks and continue running.

Nat wasn't that kind of guy, though.

There is endless money to be made, so he should cherish his life more.

"Choose wisely, my friend!"

Joseph patted Nat on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"But I suggest you not to go back. Wouldn't it be safer to wait until the war is completely over before going back?"

"During this period, you can make more trips between the Elf Forest and the Bolin Kingdom and the Valentine Kingdom."

"Although the profit is much lower, it is much safer than if you go back."

Nat squinted at the smile on Joseph's face, shook his head and said:

"If you have any ideas, just tell me. There is no need to go around with me."

"Haha, did you still notice it?"

Joseph didn't feel unhappy at all about having his thoughts figured out. Working with smart people was always better than pig teammates.

This was also the reason why he was willing to take the initiative to talk to Nat about this.

"I bought a lot of high-quality iron ore in the Bolin Kingdom. I can't transport it with my own caravan."

".Wait until I go back and think about it."

Nat didn't agree on the spot, he had to think about it carefully.

He didn't know what the war situation was like in Gordon's Kingdom now, and he was worried that he would end up like old Moore if he went back.

But staying here in the Elf Forest is not a long-term solution.

Although I believe Joseph, the Elf Forest is a foreign country after all. Suddenly, Nat remembered something and asked in a low voice:

"Why did you suddenly buy so much high-quality iron ore and even need others to transport it for you?"

"Please, is that information true? The Elf King's Court, Drono City, was really destroyed by the Demon Prince?"

"Of course it is true, and this is not a rumor. It has been confirmed by the Elf Kingdom."

Joseph nodded and said softly.

“I can't believe it, that is the Elf King's Court that has existed for tens of millions of years!”

"Isn't it older than all the human kingdoms on the continent of Fanor?"

Nat sighed, with a bit of shock in his eyes.

"It's almost like the fall of Otuya, the holy city of the Church of the Goddess of Wealth."

The two of them trembled slightly. Although they were both shallow believers of the Goddess of Wealth, they could still imagine the horror of that scene.

"So, for this reason, the Elf Kingdom is now acquiring various metal ores?"

The two were silent for a while, and Nat was the first to break the silence.

"Well, this is not news that needs to be kept secret."

Joseph nodded slightly, not hiding anything.

"The wealth accumulated by those elves is quite exaggerated, and the price given for this acquisition is also very high."

"Is that so?"

Nat nodded and said without changing his expression.

"This opportunity is rare, so you might as well come over and help me. Who knows when this big undertaking in the Emerald City will end."

"I won't argue with you. You don't have to pay the cost. 30% of the profit goes to you."

Joseph readily gave his price.

He knew Nat's character and abilities very well, so he gave his bottom line so directly.

"I see."

A look of surprise flashed in Nat's eyes.

He didn't expect Joseph to be so willing, and he saw Joseph's urgency now.

If possible, he can definitely ask for more benefits.

But this is completely unnecessary. Even if he finally agrees to Joseph's proposal, he will not do it, otherwise it will ruin the friendship between the two.

"By the way, I heard that a new elf sage has appeared in the Emerald City. Is he Li Si from the poem just now?"

Nat asked proactively.

The two had a tacit agreement not to discuss the information they had communicated before, but instead chatted about recent rumors.

Although Nat is not as familiar with the Elf Kingdom as Joseph is, he is also quite aware of the special status of the Elf Sage in this kingdom.

A human turned out to be an elf sage. When Nat heard about it for the first time in the Bolin Kingdom, he thought it was a rumor and didn't quite believe it.

But he didn't expect to hear this name often when he entered the Emerald City. His deeds were even made into music by bards and circulated. He couldn't help but not believe this fact.

"That's true."

Joseph recalled the scene in the Elf Temple where he watched the honorary ceremony for the Elf Sage Li Si. The shock that was brought to him at that time was still engraved in his mind and had not dissipated for a long time.

"When I first heard about it, I didn't quite believe it."

Joseph waved his hands and said with a smile.

"Do you know [Nature's Wrath]?"

When Nat heard this, he said with some confusion:

"You know, it's an organization composed of elves, right?"

"When the caravan entered the Forest of Elves, they encountered them for interrogation. They wore the coat of arms of a half-dead giant tree on their clothes."

"Why didn't I hear about this organization when I came here before?"

This should have been the responsibility of the Emerald City Elf Guards before, but unexpectedly, it was now replaced by those [Wrath of Nature] elves.

Joseph nodded and said affirmatively:

"That's what you see."

"Have you not noticed that there are far fewer human adventure groups in the Elf Forest?"

".It seems so."

Nat said uncertainly. He had not been to the Emerald City for a while.

"Ha, those were all members of the slave-catching group, and they were all taken care of by [Nature's Wrath]."

Joseph said in a low voice.

Although these are things that many people know, he is cautious by nature and is unwilling to talk about this in the Elf Tavern and cause the elves to be unhappy.

"Is [Wrath of Nature] so strong?"

Nat was a little surprised. He naturally knew about the Elf Slave Catching Group. Someone once entrusted his caravan to take some Elf slaves to the human kingdom in the north, but he refused.

But it's not because he is a kind person. If he was really soft-hearted, he would have reported those people to the elves in the Emerald City.

It's just that Nat doesn't want to take this risk. It's not like he won't come to the Elf Kingdom in the future. The profits every time are huge enough, so there is no need to touch these things.

"It's indeed very strong. I don't know how they distinguish between ordinary adventurers and people from the Elf Slave Catching Group, but that's the fact."

"And the people of [Nature's Wrath] even rushed to Arcot City, the capital of King Bolin, in order to hunt down the Elf Slave Catching Group. The previous Elf Guards had never left the Elf Forest before."

"So what you mean by mentioning this is that this [Wrath of Nature] has something to do with that Sage Li Si?"

Nat asked softly as he realized something.

"Of course, [Wrath of Nature] was established by Sage Li Si. He is even a member of the Elf Council of the Emerald City."

Joseph nodded and said that every time he talked about this with his friends, he felt proud.

In the territory of a foreign race, a fellow racer achieved such an achievement. Even though he had nothing to do with Joseph, he still admired him greatly.

After living in the Emerald City for many years, he even felt that other elves' attitudes towards humans were beginning to improve.

It's really rare!

These are all changes brought about by that Lord Li Si!

"In this case, he is really a legendary and heroic figure!"

Nat also felt the same way and said:

"If I have a chance, I really want to meet Mr. Li Si!"

At the same time, at the table not far behind them,

"Li Si, Li Si, they seem to respect you very much!"

"Aren't you going to meet them?"

Angela said to Li Si while eating fresh fruit salad.

Although they were separated by a distance and the voices of Nat and Joseph were very low, Angela and Li Si could still hear them clearly with their ears.

"Eat yours. There are so many people who respect me. Should I go and meet everyone?"

Li Si was a little helpless. If he hadn't been preparing to leave the Emerald City and Angela wanted to come and taste the food in this tavern, he wouldn't have appeared here.
