In the back garden of the palace of Dragon City, two beautiful and elegant elves were strolling among the exotic flowers and plants. Their high-pitched squeals filled the air with joy and laughter.

Sisna was wearing leather armor and carrying a longbow. Her long ears twitched from time to time as she swept up the child elf. Her older toughened and tenacious emerald eyes flashed with delight, but also with a trace of indescribable complexity.

She looked at Alexia, who was as cool as the moon and had skin as clear as crystals. Alexia simply looked more transparent and more magnificent than the snow on this holy mountain. Occasionally the elf dragon, who always had a cold face, revealed a smile of elegance and joy. Although she was young and adolescent, she already possessed a dazzling and fatal beauty, so Sisna was also in a trance.

This could not be blamed on Sisna as she was also stunned to find out that her revered elf queen was actually the Silver Moon Goddess. Although she felt that things were quite incredible, Sisna did not have any other thoughts.

Whether the one she revered was a queen or a goddess, Sisna was raised by her. For Sisna, the Silver Moon Goddess Selune was her mother. After finding out the true identity of the elf queen, the legendary rank ranger had her own guesses. She had guessed that the reason the goddess raised her was not out of love and pity but some other ulterior motive. However, she pretended to not know.

Sometimes, thinking too much would cause trouble. As an elf who had lived for a thousand years, Sisna knew that sometimes ignorance was bliss.

Its just that Sisna did not expect that His Highness Louie Galakrond, the lord of Dragon City, would tie with the Silver Moon Goddess Selune and beget a joint heir. As a result, Sisna was happy to have an extra sister beside her. She was already resolute and loyal to the goddess, and she did not have any greed to feel that an additional sister might steal anything from her.

It was also because Louie knew of her character that he was relieved to leave Alexia to her. This ranger general had been living in Dragon City for so many years and had a sufficient understanding of Dragon City. She herself also possessed prestige in both this city and the Silver Moon Kingdom. As long as she helped Alexia understand the situation, having Alexia become the next lord was not difficult. Even after that, she would still be a useful aide.

Sister Sisna, how many available troops are there in Dragon City?

Walking in the garden, Alexia asked Sisna intimately.

The elven ranger glanced at her sister beside her. She felt a faint divine power that made her feel a little uncomfortable. Sisna did not mind Alexias rather arrogant wording. As a child of a dragon and an elf, the elf dragon beside her was naturally overbearing and possessed a demigods level of power. If she was not an elf and had some kinship with her, she might not even smile at her.

After pondering for a while, Sisna answered, At present, the entire Dragon City has 43,000 soldiers, of which 11,000 are beastmen, 8,000 are elves, and the rest are humans. A red dragon was captured before and Lady Noella used her special spell to make it give birth to dragon beasts. As a result, we are able to train three hundred or so dragon beast knights. Marches has also trained eight hundred mages for His Highness. Although most of these are low-ranking mages and apprentices, they could form a battalion of four hundred mages strong. Elves and humans, as well as a small number of druids, could also be used.

His Highness has also provided a batch of high-quality metal. We have also captured a group of dwarves numbering six thousand from the depths of the San Soliel Mountain Range. They are currently working every day and night to rush weapons for the army. His Highness has promised them that as long as they work for Dragon City to a certain extent, they can gain their freedom and even attain the status of civilians in Dragon City. They would be able to enjoy food and wine here as well as be able to buy items with the money they make from selling weapons.

The dwarves have excellent craftsmanship. The metal materials provided by His Highness are of the highest quality, and the weapons they make are the best military weapons. Although there arent many soldiers in Dragon City, they are all elites. As a soldier for the Silver Moon Kingdom, I can tell you that the battle power of the soldiers in Dragon City would not lose to the elves of the Silver Moon kingdom. Moreover, their training is much more complete.

Words of praise poured out ceaselessly from Sisnas mouth. As the ranger general who once commanded the army of the Silver Moon Kingdom, she had ample experience in military mobilization. Lysfer also had a wealth of experience in commanding soldiers when she was the beastmen chiefs successor. It could be said that Dragon Citys army was raised in the hands of elves and beastmen.

The only flaw of Dragon City is the lack of population, making it difficult to recruit more troops.

Dragon City still needed to develop. With its total population, there was about one full-time soldier for every ten citizens. Although this figure could continue to increase, it would affect the economic development of the city. Dragon Citys army was not like other countries where they were both knights during war and farmers during peace.

In Dragon City, soldiery was a profession that was completely supported by the territorys finances. This meant that they could not create economic value and consumed significant finances. As a result, this number needed to be carefully restrained.

The benefits of this were also obvious as it ensured the combat effectiveness and readiness of the army.

Alexia nodded and bit her lips. She was still young and quite stubborn. She knew that she had to master these things so she had been studying the practical application of various abilities in Dragon City. After some time, she had found that this was indeed not a job that could be easily done with just theoretical knowledge.

Your Highness Alexia, you need not worry. His Highness will give you plenty of time to learn everything you need to become a lord, and I will help you as well.

Sensing the elf dragons melancholy and anxiety, Sisna spoke with a warm voice.

The elf rangers eyes flashed with a trace of heartache. Alexia was just born not long ago but was now forced to adapt to many things. Although her body wouldnt get tired as a demigod, the same couldn't be said for her mental state.

No, sister Sisna, I must know everything about Dragon City as soon as possible, especially about the army. Soon, there will be a huge test for me, and I do not want to disappoint my father

Alexias youthful and tender face flashed with stubbornness, but she quickly shut her mouth. Her inverted dark golden pupils showed panic as she seemed to have said something wrong.

The Kingdoms of Selar and Danbusil were secretly preparing for war. Louie had forwarded this information to Alexia and informed her that he would be gone once these countries invaded Dragon City. This made it impossible for him to lead the counterattack, and he could only leave it to his daughter.

The gods returned to being gods, and mortals would stay as mortals. Louies enemies were the Goddess of Magic and the Goddess of Earth. His job was to intercept these two gods and prevent them from exerting influence on the main continent. He could only leave the defeat of the forces of the two countries to Alexia.

However, this information was important. In order to catch the two countries by surprise, Louie did not tell anyone of this information. With Alexias momentary blunder, she had accidentally blurted out information. Even if the information was not detailed, Sisna was able to make a few guesses with her experience.

Fearing that her own words would make her fathers plans fail, Alexia lifted her pitiful face. Her eyes were lost in fear and anxiety, and she seemed to be about to cry as she looked at Sisna.

Sisna smiled and thought she was really cute. The elf dragon seemed to be cold and looked condescending as if she did not care about anything, but Sisna did not expect that in the blink of an eye, she would show a pitiful look as if she was an abandoned puppy. In an instant, Sisnas motherly instincts gushed out. Towards that pitiful expression, she spoke in a soft voice, I did not understand what you meant, Your Highness.

The elven ranger smiled at Alexia, causing her to blush. Alexia anxiously grabbed the hem of her clothes, only to feel her heart beat faster.

If her father chastised her, Alexia thought about it and found that there was no other way but to hug her fathers thighs and beg for mercy.

I wont say anything to His Highness either.

It was only after these comforting words came from Sisna that Alexia finally calmed down. She collected her emotions, calmed her beating heart, and said with a stern face, This is an important secret. General Sisna, I am telling you because I trust you.

Yes, Your Highness Alexia. As a ranger general, I know the importance of secrets. However, as your general, I also have the authority to remind you to be more careful in what you say next time.

At the end of the day, Sisnas words were also stern. She did not care about Alexias status and identity and educated her with the grandness of a sister.

I knew, sister Sisna

Alexia lowered her head. Her two elven ears twitched as she sulked with her whole head facing down.

In the end, shes still a child, yet she has to bear so much pressure.

Sisna sighed lightly. Her elf ears moved like this, and she knew that Alexia was ashamed.

Just then, Alexia and Sisna both changed their expressions. In a flash, they sensed that the worlds rules have changed.

They knew that the world was about to change drastically!

Soon, the elven maids rushed in, Your Highness Alexia, the Lord wants to see you!
