Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
Chapter 985: I’m Rooting For You, So Do Your BestSince there were more people with them, the High King of the Elves took a different route to bring everyone to the Kingdom of Espoir Frieden.
The journey took three days, but no one complained. They were all excited as almost all of them, with the exception of the Elves, had never set foot in this legendary kingdom that was said to be as old as the Primordial Era.
The High Elves kept to themselves, and although they interacted with other races, it was very rare for them to invite people to enter their kingdom.
Just like Agartha, Karshvar Draconis, and the Crystal Palace, there were strict requirements that must be met before anyone was allowed to enter their Kingdom.
If not for the fact that the High King of the Elves was personally escorting so many people, the Elf Guards would have attacked without asking any questions.
The High-Elves prided themselves for being superior to the other races, similar to what the Dragons think about their race.
However, unlike the Dragons, the Elves were easier to interact with. Even so, entering Espoir Frieden, which they consider as their Holy Land was not an easy task.
Countless guards escorted their King, and his guests, back to the Royal Palace.
When they saw that their supposed to be dead Princess was among the guests of their King, none of them could help but look at her as if they had seen a ghost.
The beautiful Elf found this reaction funny, and even playfully waved her hand at the guards and her people, who had come to watch their arrival.
Several minutes later, they arrived at the Royal Palace. The Prime Minister personally took care of their guests and led them to their temporary residences.

Lady Faustina and Piccoro, who were tasked with guarding the Dragon Princess and the Dragon Prince, could only look at each other and shrug helplessly.
They were not worried that their wards would be harmed inside the Elven Kingdom, for it would mean a war of unimaginable proportions.
Also, they trusted Hereswith to a certain extent. They were certain that the beautiful Elf would safeguard Valerie and Aur to the best of her ability.
Hereswith was currently the strongest person in Espoir Frieden due to her being at the peak of the Demigod Rank.
Even her father, the Elf King, wasn't as strong as she was, so with her around, no one in the Elf Kingdom would even dare to threaten the Dragon Princess and Dragon Prince unless they had a death wish.
"Lux, you will be staying in this room," Hereswith said as she picked the Master Bedroom that was supposed to belong to her. "Valerie, Aur, Ali, and Ari, you will be staying here as well. Don't worry, this room has six bedrooms, so all of you can stay together without problems."
Hereswith didn't want Lux to be cooped up alone because she didn't want him to fall into complete depression.
Having people whom he had a close relationship with nearby would definitely help him recover faster.
Valerie blushed at the realization that she would be staying under the same roof as Lux. However, since Aur, Ali, and Ari would be there as well, she regained her composure right away.
Aur didn't mind this arrangement because he also wanted to be with Lux. He knew that he would always be there for him.
Ali and Ari were also fine with this setup because it would give their Princess a chance to squeeze her way inside Lux's heart, while the Half-Elf's defenses were at their lowest.
Both of them knew that Lux was heartbroken due to Gaap's death.
Although they felt like it was cheap to use this opportunity to allow their Princess to get close to Lux, they also understood that there was no better time than now to make it happen.
Valerie had always been cooped up inside the Dragon Palace and was always guarded by countless Rankers and Lady Faustina.
Now that their guards were not around, they would be able to get away with a few encounters, which might just help Valerie gather the courage to confess her feelings to the Half-Elf.
"I'll tell the servants to bring some food and drinks here," Hereswith said. "This room also has a private underground spring. It's big enough to hold a dozen people, so feel free to soak together. The more the merrier!
"Don't worry, this place has a special enchantment. No one can hear anything coming out from this residence, nor can they pry on what is happening inside it."
The beautiful Elf then lowered her head to whisper something in Valerie's ears.
"I'm rooting for you, so do your best," Hereswith whispered. "Good luck!"
Hereswith pulled back and winked at Valerie, which made the latter's face turn beet red.
After saying what she wanted to say, Hereswith left them alone and went to look for the strongest wine available in the Castle's inventory.
Just like Lux, she wanted to drown herself in wine. Maybe she'd momentarily forget the heartache that she was feeling.
"I'll be sleeping for a bit," Lux said without even bothering to look at his friends as he randomly picked one of the bedrooms to sleep.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmValerie and Aur looked at his back with sad expressions on their faces. If possible, they wanted to console him, but they had a feeling that Lux wanted to be alone right now.
Because of this, they decided to hold back for the time being and give him some space.
"Let's go and choose our room, Mistress," Ali said. "Although there are many rooms here, Ari and I planned to sleep with you. Are you okay with that?"
Valerie nodded. "I'm fine with that."
Ali and Ari then chose the bedroom that was right beside Lux's and opened the door.
The two were pleasantly surprised to see a very large bed that could easily fit a dozen people.
The room was spacious and even had its own bathroom, complete with all the amenities.
While the three ladies were inspecting their room, Aur chose the room that was on the left side of Lux's bedroom.
The room that Aur chose was similar to the room that Ali and Ari had chosen. It had the same large bed, as well as the bathroom that had everything he needed.
Although it didn't show on his face, the Dragon Prince was also quite exhausted from their journey, so he decided to lay on the bed to rest.
Thinking that Lux was sleeping in the room beside his own, Aur felt at ease and immediately fell asleep just a few seconds after his head rested on the pillow.
But before he fell into sleep's embrace, he thought of the handsome Half-Elf and smiled.
Similar to Ali's and Ari's plans, he also wanted to get closer to Lux and help him overcome his sadness.
Aur hoped that by doing so, he would be able to get a closer to the Half-Elf, whom his father had chosen as his Champion
A Champion who would help save two worlds from Minion the Outer God, a being who planned to end their existence and destroy Elysium and Solais, leaving nothing behind.
