The Sword and The Shadow

Chapter 515: The defecting Link

Views:

As soon as Zyra's words came out, the dark elves began to whisper. They were discussing in whispers, or exchanging glances with their distant companions.

Some people looked at the dark elf female warrior in the center of the hall, with a bit of schadenfreude flashing in their eyes. They began to calculate how much benefit they could get if Zyra also fell. Some wretched men even began to calculate whether to save Zyra and let her continue to live as their sex slave. Of course, the premise of this is that Zyra's fighting spirit must be abolished.

Many dark elves who had a good relationship with Zyra looked a little ugly at this time. It seemed that they also knew that if something happened to Zyra, they would naturally not be able to escape the involvement.

However, Zyra was still not too nervous. She still stood there relaxedly, as if waiting for Britney's next words.

"Give me a reason for you to do this, a reason that satisfies me, my good sister." Britney said lightly.

"What if my reasons don't satisfy you?" Zyra asked.

"You just have to satisfy me."

"..." Zyra looked at the group of people around her, and then replied: "I just want to verify it."

"Verify what?"

"Verify whether you really have the ability to lead this family." Zyra looked at Britney and said: "I think everyone here knows that Sarah, that idiot woman, has made this family a mess. We Originally we were ranked among the top three in terms of strength among the seven major families, but since she became the mistress, we have faced the crisis of being kicked out of the seven major families in just twenty years. So, I don’t I hope that the next leader of the family will be a fool like Sarah. If this is the case, then I think we might as well let the surname Alvin disappear completely in Darklight City."

"So, sister, do you think I am qualified as a mistress?" Britney asked with a smile.

Zyra looked at Britney, and then at all the dark elves present. Then she nodded: "Yes, at least for now, I think you are capable of leading this family to regain its former honor."

"But for betraying family information, how much responsibility do you think you should bear for this matter?" Britney asked with a smile.

"The family has not lost anything. As a wise mistress, you should understand that every time you change the mistress, you will have to withstand tentative attacks from other families in Dark Light City. I just brought this matter forward. So, I don't I feel responsible for this." Zyra said very frankly: "Does this answer satisfy you?"

"..." Britney seemed to think for a moment, and finally nodded: "I can reluctantly accept that your punishment will be delayed for a period of time. How to punish you depends on your performance."

"I can accept it and prove my loyalty to the family again." Zyra replied.

"Then." Britney stood up. She glanced at all the dark elves in the hall, and then said to them: "Now, offer your loyalty to your mistress!"

Britney was greeted with deathly silence.

Two or three seconds later, Zyra was the first to move. She inserted her enchanted sword on the ground in front of her, then knelt down on one knee, holding the sword hilt with both hands: "I, the commander of the Elvin family's family guard, Zyra Alvin, officially recognize Britney Elvin. Wen is the top leader of the family and the mistress of the family. Where your will is, that is where my sword points, and where your eyes are, that is where my blade is heading. I will be the most loyal and sharpest in your hands. With the sharp sword, for the sake of the family and for you, I will kill all enemies who stand in front of Alvin! Let the goddess of the dark elves, Rose of the Spider Queen, witness my oath!"

Following Zyla were naturally Britney's two older brothers and male favorites, Gasos and Wesley. The two of them also loudly pledged their allegiance to Britney in front of everyone.

Seeing this, most of the smart dark elves finally understood. Gasos and Wesley, one of them represents the elite warriors of the Alvin family, the other represents the elite magic of the Alvin family, and Zyra represents the ordinary guards of the Alvin family. As a result, almost all the power of the Alvin family has been controlled by Britney. It can be said that Sarah's second daughter is truly firmly seated on the throne of the Alvin family's matron this time.

"This pair of sisters work together quite well." Garona commented lightly.

"Are you saying that Britney and Zyra have colluded with each other a long time ago?" Regnar was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but he soon understood what Garona meant.

"Of course it is." Garona said very firmly: "Otherwise, how could Britney investigate Zyra's subordinate so carefully? If she really kept an eye on every member of Alvin's tribe so closely. If so, how could that man have the opportunity to leak information about the Elvin family to so many small families?"

"In that case, Britney and Zyla may have reached some kind of relationship a long time ago, right? By doing this, they can use Zyra to prove that Britney is a tolerant person. And the benevolent mistress. Secondly, she can take this opportunity to declare her status as mistress to all the tribesmen. Thirdly, the apparent discord between her and Zyra can also expose some other tribesmen with evil intentions. By that time, Britney will be able to have a general scope for cleaning up the interior. Fourthly, it will be able to advance the attacks of other families before I leave, so that I will be forced to help Alvin. They are really enough Those who can calculate!" Regnar suddenly realized that although he was not particularly good at intrigues and intrigues, Regnar was not stupid either. He could understand many things as long as he thought about it carefully.

"Exactly. Because that Zyra is just a warrior, there is no way she can become the mistress of the family. Therefore, Britney must have secretly attracted this Zyra over. And this Zyra is not a fool after all. , she has found her position very accurately, and is very happy to cooperate with Britney." Garona confirmed Regnar's view: "Well, these scenes today are nothing more than fun for you to watch. But. With this incident, I also want to remind you: Don’t be fooled by people’s appearances, otherwise, you are likely to suffer big losses.”

"Disciple, remember this," Regnar replied.

"Mistress." Zyra seemed to understand her position very well. After officially recognizing Britney's status as mistress, Zyra never spoke to Britney using titles such as sister or elder sister. It seems that in her eyes, Britney is just her head of the family, her mistress, and other blood relationships are as if they no longer exist!

After everyone calmed down, Zyra continued: "On the way back from the mithril mine, I discovered that someone was disloyal to the family. This guy tried to escape from the family's control, but he was caught by me. As for how he will be punished. , you still need to make a decision."

"Oh?" Britney's face showed a bit of surprise. It seemed that she really didn't know about this. She glanced at Zyra, and then said: "Bring him here."

When the man was brought up, Britney and Regnar couldn't help but be surprised. Because the person who was tied up by Five Flowers turned out to be Link!

It can be seen that Zyra also knew that Link was Britney's confidant, so although she completely restrained Link's actions, she did not torture the dark elf to death. Otherwise, with the bloody and cruel methods of the dark elves, Link may only have one breath left.

But even so, Link still had some bruises on his body, and his originally neatly combed hair became messy. But he didn't seem particularly panicked. At least when he met Britney's eyes, Link didn't show any signs of cowardice.

"..." Brittney and Link looked at each other for a moment, and then suddenly laughed: "So you were talking about Link. It's a pity, sister Zyra, but you made a mistake this time."

"Huh?" This time it was Zyra's turn to be surprised.

"Link didn't want to escape, it's just that I arranged other things for him to do." Britney said with a smile: "We might as well discuss this matter in detail later, but Link is indeed not a traitor. , I can prove this.”

"..." Zyra looked at Link, then at Britney, and finally nodded: "I understand."

But this was not the end of the matter, when Britney officially announced in front of everyone that she would become Alvin's new generation mistress. She held a secret meeting with Zyra, Gasos, Wesley, Link and other close confidants.

What surprised Britney was that Regner and Annelotte also seemed interested in this meeting. Not only that, they also brought Angelista with them. Angelista didn't know why she got so close to Regnar and Irene during this period, especially Irene. This psyker seems to be particularly interested in the kind and gentle half-elf. Does he want to have a sexual relationship with her? Britney couldn't help but have such an idea pop up in her head.

But what she is most concerned about right now is Link's desire to break away from Alvin. In fact, Britney didn't know that Link actually wanted to leave the Elvin family, and she didn't assign any tasks to Link. The reason why she said this in front of everyone was just to prevent things from developing into an irreversible situation, causing her to have to execute Link in front of him.

At this time, several of them, including Regnar and Irene, were sitting in a secret room; Only Link stood aside, but he looked indifferent, as if this interrogation had nothing to do with him.

"Why did you betray me?" Britney's expression was not very good at this time. Although she had expected that Link had his own plans, she did not expect that this man would choose to jump out at this time.

"This is not betrayal, my mistress." Link said very calmly: "My heart and my loyalty have always belonged to Alvin, and they have always belonged to you."

"That's enough! Don't fool me with these high-sounding words!" Britney was furious. Although Link is not strong, he has a very sharp mind, and this guy seems to have always been very lucky, so If he goes to do things, there will basically be no mistakes. Therefore, Britney has always valued Link very much, and now that such an important think tank is suddenly missing, it is really very annoying for Britney.

"I didn't lie, Mistress." Link replied seriously.

"So..." Britney took a deep breath: "Why did you leave the Alvin family?"

"I heard Goulder say that he seems to want to travel to other planes." Zyra replied. Although this woman is not as facially paralyzed as Annelotte, she is not a person with too many expressions. . She said coldly: "It seems that I want to see more new worlds and races."

"I knew he would snitch..." Link raised his forehead with his hand in annoyance.

"Oh, Mistress, it's not just him Link~!" Angelista suddenly interrupted at this time, she said with a smile: "Actually, I also have the idea of going to other planes to take a look, so I also want to take my Seedek away from the Elvin family and go to the original plane with Regnar."
