Chapter 2103 Bunker Boy, Elliot
The guards' leader's shriek, together with the sound of a dagger cutting through flesh, resounded in the dark night.
There was gratification on the elven slaves' faces. This was what they always had in their mind when they were suppressed for the past 100 years.
More than 10 elves were tortured to death by this fellow in the past. His methods were far crueler than this.
Those guards that were tied up already began to shiver in fear.
They had never expected that those slaves who were at their mercy before would become an existence that could decide their life and death.
Furthermore, they would really kill.
Dirk and the elven soldiers were terrified and caught in between.
The 48th stab. Albin stabbed the dagger into that guard's heart before letting go and taking a few steps back. He knelt down next to Anton's body with a plop, and cried his heart out.
Irina removed all their shackles with a wave of her hand, and then said to the 3000-odd elves below, "Take your revenge. I hope you won't leave here with hatred. Then, start a new life."
All the elven slaves were quiet for a moment.
Some of them picked up the swords, and walked towards those guards.
"Princess Irina! I think the High Priestess wouldn't want to see this. I hope you can reconsider it. Princess Sally will return in a few more days." Dirk stepped forward nervously.
"The things that I did were all what Helena didn't want to see, including my existence." Irina looked at Dirk and suddenly laughed. "Then, what do you think I should do? Should I disappear completely?".
Dirk was speechless. He wanted that to happen, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, nor could he make it happen.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore Dirk could say anything else, Irina took out a little black notebook, and loudly declared, "Dirk Brewster. The number one butler under Elliot. The absolute executor of his orders. The executioner tainted with the blood of many elves. Today, I declare the death sentence on you. You will be killed right on the spot."
"No!" Dirk turned around, attempting to flee.
A beam of light lit up his body, and he turned into dust instantly.
All the elven soldiers immediately broke down psychologically and dispersed, and those elven guards were almost all killed by the slaves. Only five of them were left, and they were protected by a few elven slaves. "They were forced to become guards. They are kind, and even provided help to us before," an elderly elf said loudly, convincing his companions to let those few guards go. "Princess Irina!"
"Princess Irina!"
All the elves looked at Irina, and cheered with passion in their eyes.
Just as they thought they were going to descend into a hopeless life again, she appeared.
She broke through the ice wall, disarmed the guards, taking away their weapons and magic wands, and killed the evil and scary Dirk.
She was the light in this endless dark night, bringing them hope.
"Now, I'll bring you away from here to start your life anew," Irina loudly said to the elves below. "You're free now!"
The iron fence fell after she said that, and burned to ashes in the flames.
"We're free!"
"Free!"
A light glowed in the eyes of the elves. They looked at their vast surroundings. Everything seemed to look different without the iron fence.
"Let's go. Let me show you the way," Irina said. A beam of light shone in front of them, and a path of light led into the distance.
The elves followed the light and walked forward.
Albin carried Anton's body on his back, and softly said, "Let's go, Anton. I'll bring you to see the world outside."
The small figure carried the body forward on his crouched back. He even rejected help from the others stubbornly.
The castle close by was fully lit up, with its gates tightly shut.
Irina flicked a glance at the castle, and inwardly said, "Elliot, your life belongs to Shirley. I'll let you keep it for a while longer."

Long after that, Elliot looked out of the castle, and asked, "I-is she gone?"
"Chief, they're already gone. They have gone southwards," someone outside answered.
"Is she really gone?" Elliot couldn't quite believe it.
"Yes. The slaves' circle is already empty, and all the slaves have escaped," the person outside answered, and then continued to ask, "Shall we go after them?"
Elliot jumped out from the bunker angrily, and slapped that young elf before saying, "Are you going after them alone?"
That elf took half a step back, and shook his head with aggrievement.
"Damn Irina…" Elliot paced around in the room. Then, he suddenly stopped and clapped his hands together. "Yes! We have to go after them!"
Elliot pointed to that elf earlier, and said, "You, bring 500 men and pursue them westward!" "Me…" That elf went white, but he quickly asked, "But they have gone southwards. Shouldn't we go to the south if we want to pursue them?"
"What do you intend to do if we really catch up with them?" Elliot looked at him.
"I…" That elf was taken aback with a terrified expression.
"Then, why don't freaking chase them westward?" Elliot gave him a kick.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yes, yes, yes…" That elf scrambled and tumbled away.
Soon, a troop of 500 cavalrymen rode out and pursued westward.
Elliot ordered, "Request reinforcements from the City of Life immediately, and then send a letter with the eagle to the high priestess. Tell her that Irina has killed hundreds of Brewster Family's guards and soldiers, stole 3000 slaves, and escaped to the southwest. The Brewster Family has already sent troops after them, and we seek reinforcements."
The eagle took off from the castle, and flew towards the City of Life.
Half an hour later, the castle received a response letter from the City of Life.
Elliot almost ate that letter after reading it.
"That damned old woman! Is she that afraid of Irina?! Damn it! Damn it!!!"
***
In the Starry Cave, Helena said to Sally below, "Do you know why I'm not sending the troops?"
"Elliot isn't a trustworthy person. He doesn't have the guts to fight with Irina, including mounting any forms of resistance," Sally calmly replied. "Furthermore, freeing the slaves is already common sense in the Wind Forest. This is an irresistible trend."
"Seems like you agree with what Irina did." Helena looked at Sally.
"I stand with the trend. The majority of the elves in the Wind Forest will agree with what she did now." Sally was still as calm as ever.
Helena laughed, and lamented, "Elliot wouldn't have ended like this if he had had half of your wits and temperament."
Sally was silent.
After a long time, she looked over and asked Helena, "Are you really ready to let Wind Forest go through another revolution?"
"I was initially, but now I'm afraid it's not going to be in time." Helena shook her head. She lifted her hand, and a video began to play in midair.
"This is…!" Sally's face was tight with shock.
