"Haaa, as I thought, this much is still not enough," Reign says before jumping back, he channels his mana to its fullest before attacking Sylra again.

"That would be enough." Sylra flicks her hand as Reign was stopped in mid-air, before he could do anything he was sent flying back. With a loud bang, he hit the wall before dropping to the ground and falling to his knees.

"You have proven that your words were not just arrogance, the elves will ally with you, you can talk to my officers about further details, I will inform them about our alliance."

"But, I didn't make you step back," Reign says with a smile as he pants heavily, even though her previous blow wasn't a serious one it was enough to make him realize the incredibly chasm that divides them.

"If I let you continue my whole chambers would be a wreck." Sylra flicks her hair before sitting down, with a flick of her wrist the surroundings suddenly change, the charred areas started shining before healing themselves, in mere moments the chamber was back to its original state.

"Well, that's … convenient," Shadow says after looking at the chamber that magically healed itself from the previous short bout.

"You may take your leave, from today on we will be allies, I have already informed my officers about it, they will be waiting for you outside the chambers."

Reign bows slightly to the queen before they all take their leave. As the pearly gates of the chamber close, the queen takes a deep look at Reign as her eyes flash for a moment.

"Interesting." The queen whispers as a slight smile forms on her face before she toward the transparent wall and looks in the distance, seemingly lost in thoughts.

On the other side, Reign and the others were greeted by 10 elves who were smiling at them from the moment they had seen them. The elves were, of course, the officers that the queen had previously mentioned, it seemed that the elves were taking this alliance seriously, for the next couple of hours Reign and the others were stuck on the top floors where they discussed everything with the officers in excruciating details.

The areas around their two territories and the situation in the town were all said in detail, the monsters that could be found there, the levels of them, the monsters in the Ironbark forest that the elves had come across, the different danger levels each monster possessed, their abilities…

All of that took about 3 hours to narrate, after they had finished Reign and the others were mortified to learn that that was not all, after talking about the areas and the monsters surrounding their territory and the elves the next step was talking about the territories themselves. The number of people that could be found in them, the number of people that fought monsters and their levels, the availability of food and water that they had, their research, the level of craftsmanship their craftsmen had…

Once again Reign and the others were able to see that the elves were above them in that regard, while they had a bit over 100 people that crafted and about 50 people that acted as merchants, the elves had over 200 craftsmen so far, their proficiency and level was also above their own. The research department was another thing that the elves were better at, well, they had one, that alone was enough to be better as Reign's territory didn't have anything like that.

Upon finishing their conversation they could see that the sky had already turned dark, Reign and the others were given accommodations in the tree as they still had some minor details to go over tomorrow. Upon entering the room Reign immediately went to the bed and fell asleep quickly, fighting monsters all day was something he became used to doing, but talking about such boring topics for half the day was excruciatingly boring and tiring for him.

As he woke up in the morning he could hear sounds outside, he got dressed and left his room only to find that Shadow and Beast were talking to some elves, a couple of minutes later the others all came out of their rooms as well. They had a simple breakfast, the elves were quite surprised when they saw them taking stuff out from the air, they took it as a sign that they had spatial rings which were incredibly precious.

After breakfast it was time to talk again, Reign's head hurt simply after thinking about it, but unfortunately, it was something that had to be done, the following conversation took about 2 hours after which they all shook hands. They had finalized everything and made a plan on how the alliance would function.

The elves agreed to let some humans come here to study with them in the research department, they also agreed to lend them some of their researchers later for when they were going to open a research department back home. The lower-level elves were all going to hunt in the newbie areas around the castle while the stronger ones would continue fighting in the Ironbark forest or the town and the areas around it.

The many craftsmen they had would also play a role, their way of making weapons, armors and accessories were different compared to how the others did it, Reign was quite intrigued by it and he wanted to get some players to learn from them, the elves accepted as they wished to do the same with their people. Contrary to how elves were usually depicted in many books and s these were quite different, they didn't mind trying new things and fighting monsters.

They still liked having peace and quiet the most of course, but they knew that that was almost impossible in this new world, eating meat and hunting was also something they did, the elves simply believed that if you hunt normal animals or very weak monsters you should take care to kill them immediately and not let them suffer, their bodies should also be used to the fullest as a way of honoring them.

After hearing the big divide between Reign's party and the rest of the players in their territory the elves were quite shocked, for one party to be so much more powerful was actually uncommon in territories that functioned like theirs, they would be more commonly found in territories where a tyrant was present as the other players there would never have the chance to hunt and level up as they wished and would be held on a tight leash.

Their levels were also extremely shocking, to see humans that were level 37 right now was above their expectations, even the strongest of the elven parties were lower as the highest level was 35. Upon finishing everything a notification of course popped up for Reign and everyone else.

Ding!

[ The players have successfully allied themselves with another race, the elven faction under the leadership of Sylralei Ixesastenn are now set as allies. ]

[ The players can now create a portal that connects your two territories. ]

Upon hearing that they could build a portal now Reign and the others were overjoyed, but after looking at the options their joy soon soured as the price was incredibly expensive. Just the S coins needed to build the portal were high as they needed 30 000 S Coins, they had the money, even though they would be left with almost none after buying it, but they also needed some other materials for the portal as well.

Luckily for them, the elves actually had a lot of those materials, Reign and the others simply needed to wait a bit for them to gather the rest and they could make the portal, as it was a joint effort they decided that the elves would supply the materials while Reign and the others would foot the bill for the portal. Even though their hearts hurt after thinking about it, it was the only way.

They decided to take their leave from the elven base, they had already spent more time than they had anticipated, they needed to go back and get ready for building the portal, not to mention that they already missed one training session last night, luckily they did tell the players that they might be gone for a day or two so it was still alright.

Upon coming back to the castle Reign and the others decided to first go to Eldar to tell him the news, upon hearing that they had actually formed an alliance with elves Eldar was very surprised, he was a half-elf himself and he knew that elves would usually be a bit wary of people in the beginning. Of course, after hearing the story of how the party helped save some of them a couple of days ago he sighed before shaking his head with a smile, these kids simply continued to surprise him more and more.

Before they all left he told Shadow to come tonight, as their levels were becoming higher it was time to train with their class trainers, it would usually happen after level 40, but since he was already here he decided that he could start a bit earlier with Shadow. Shadow was overjoyed after learning that, he had previously seen Eldar's power alongside everyone else and he couldn't wait to learn some cool new moves, that's what he believed at least, soon he would be wishing that his training started later.
