Besides, there are many other rewards. You can find out more when you come to Tressburg later. Monica gathered her hair and smiled. My father has wanted to meet you for a long time and wants to thank you in person. Lienhardt Grand Duke, Julius?

Upon learning that this Grand Duke had led armies in numerous battles, expanding the Lienhardt territory twofold, and was a formidable individual at level sixty or higher, renowned for both his combat skills and strategic intelligence, Ji Chen suspected that there was a strong link between him and the Kingdom of Ba.s.s hasty declaration of war.

Such a formidable native leader piqued his interest.

Ji Chen nodded thoughtfully. Very well, I will visit the Grand Duke after that.

Seeing Ji Chen readily agree, Monica became even happier, her eyes forming crescent moons with her smile.

Thats good. We shouldnt delay. Lets set off tomorrow morning.

After confirming the time, Ji Chen returned to the temporary residence in the city. The first to greet him was Elisya, an elven girl who appeared mature but carried a childlike dependence in her expression.

She opened her arms and hugged his waist, rubbing her cheek against his chest.

Big Brother!

Ji Chen, who just entered the door, was almost out of breath. He looked at the heroes who followed Elisya with a strange expression.

Who taught Elisya to call me like this?

Master, it was Lady Aninas suggestion, Benbo quickly chimed in.

Anina, casting a scornful glance at Benbos overly flattering conduct, placed her hands on her hips and remarked, We cant have Elisya pick up terms like master or anything of the sort. Considering her current demeanor, addressing him as brother should be the most suitable choice.

Alice showed an approving look. In fact, when she heard this suggestion, she was sure that the lord would accept it. During their intimate moments, the lord always preferred her to call him big brother. If it werent for the significant age difference between Elisya and the lord, she would have suggested using daddy or something similar.

Ji Chen thought for a moment and found it reasonable. Truth be told, being called big brother by such a beautiful elf gave him a peculiar feeling.

He reluctantly accepted this reason.

Have the elves from Vale been settled in?

While walking towards the eaves with Elisya, Ji Chen asked.

Alice nodded. The people from the Lienhardt Grand Duchy have been very cooperative. They quickly cleared more than ten mansions for the elves to rest in and immediately delivered a large amount of new food, clothing, and supplies. They all seemed a bit nervous as if they were afraid of causing any trouble

First, the elves from Vale were brought here by Ji Chen, so they received such treatment.

Second, perhaps even the secluded Lienhardt Grand Duchy, isolated from the Northern Continent, knew that the Elven Empire was not to be trifled with. Regardless of where Ji Chen brought so many elves from, the fact that they were elves was enough. If something went wrong with these elves here, they couldnt bear the consequences.

When a nation becomes powerful and prosperous, the status of its citizens also rises, earning respect and awe from other nations.

Of course, the arrogant and protective behavior of the Elven Empire had a significant impact on this.

Whenever harm befell their people and the news reached Elven ears, the Elven Empire promptly dispatched a formidable army to ruthlessly annihilate anyone who had crossed them, a practice that had been consistent since the reign of the then-current Elven Empress.

This led countless nations, whether human or of other races, to form a common notion and impressionnever to provoke the Elves, or at least not openly. Any dealings involving the trade of Elves were conducted discreetly, far from the Elves watchful eyes.

However, there were rumors suggesting that some factions destroyed by the Elves due to involvement in the Elf trade had been orchestrated by the Elves themselves, with the goal of eliminating dissent and securing their own interests.

Yet, nearly five thousand Elves in Vale were already a significant number, considering the diminis.h.i.+ng breeding capacity of the Elven Empire.

It should be noted that there were only three to four thousand Elves stationed in the vast Maple Princ.i.p.ality. This sudden increase of five thousand Elves would have been a significant achievement for any Elven official or field agent working abroad, and it would surely have been reported to the Elven Empress.

So, Ji Chen had already contemplated how to reap some benefits using the Elves of Vale through Elven Amba.s.sador Miligas cooperation.

When it came to making money, why hold back?

However, it seemed that Miligas had already returned to the Elven capital to attend the Empress birthday celebration. In that case, Ji Chen would have to approach Military Officer Brett

On the other hand, the Elves from Vale were praising Ji Chen without knowing he was currently contemplating how much price each of the elves would fetch him after he transported them back to the Elven capital.

They were completely unaware of the current status of the Elven race.

In their eyes, the respect and treatment they received from these humans were all because of Ji Chen.

Therefore, when they boarded the s.h.i.+p again the next day and saw Ji Chen, their faces were filled with respect and grat.i.tude. The young female Elves, in particular, did not hide their admiration for him..
