The moment the other party left, Dorothy frowned and said, “This is a blatant house arrest.”

“That’s right.” I nodded, took the consent form from Eve’s arms, and threw it into the trash can. “It’s house arrest. It seems that we’re not very lucky. We’ve been very careful, but we still managed to make it in time for the internal strife of the elves.”

Eve’s old profession was to search for information, so she had seen many conspiracies and tricks. But the elves’ choice to have internal strife at this time was also eye-opening for her. “Now? Are they still mentally sound?”

“Of course, it’s normal. They wouldn’t have chosen such a time if it’s not normal.” I could guess what the Crown Prince was thinking. The so-called coup and overlapping of power are just a few shows. “The country is in trouble, but it’s also an opportunity for some people. It is only when power is on the verge of collapse that people can easily take it into their pockets. How can you say it is not smart to choose this time?

“It’s a pity that being smart doesn’t mean it’s right. For the elves, we can’t say whether the current situation is good or bad. Maybe when we start from the Elf Forest, the history book will have to be changed again.”

Of course, we couldn’t adhere to the Crown Prince’s order obediently. To put it bluntly, even if it were the elves, how many of them would listen to him? In terms of power, he did not have an orthodox interim government. In terms of interpersonal relationships, he was not as connected as the president. In terms of strength, which major mayor in the Elven Capital City was not more powerful than him?

It was impossible to call for hundreds of people to respond to him at this unstable time of the year just by relying on his bloodline. No one would buy his words, and his dignity and power would soon collapse like a castle in the air.

However, this was also what I was puzzled about.

I didn’t think the Elf King would want to turn his eldest son into a fool. In that case, the Crown Prince should have some basic political literacy. How could he not know that his current prestige was just an illusion? If he knew, then he should be even more low-key now. What gave him the courage to make such bold moves?

“Can we still contact the Great Elder? Where’s Mr. Cage?” I asked Dorothy.

She replied helplessly, “The Great Elder has been looking for me all this time, and I’ve contacted him through the Soul Sparrow whenever I need him. However, he obviously can’t come now, and I’m not sure if it’s safe to let the Soul Sparrow out. As for my father... We didn’t leave any contact information. Father is still afraid that the curse would affect me, so he tried his best to avoid meeting me unnecessarily.”

Speaking of which, I was not worried about the Great Elder, but I was still not sure about Cage’s safety. Cage didn’t seem to like his best friend’s son, and the Crown Prince didn’t seem to respect his father’s best friend, either. Instead, he would gnash his teeth every time he saw him. There must be a grudge between them that we didn’t know about.

I couldn’t allow Dorothy to rashly release the Soul Sparrow. There were so many elves here who were extremely sensitive to nature, and there was no guarantee that the Soul Sparrow’s sparrow-like mimicry would be able to hide from these beloved creatures of nature. However, we couldn’t just stay here. There were more ‘patrolling’ soldiers outside the window. Who knew if they were really patrolling or taking the opportunity to monitor us?

Master Hayley suggested, “Should we send a message to the palace? We could use diplomatic means to solve our problem.”

Activating the diplomatic procedure was the most useful trump card, but I didn’t agree. “I’m afraid that even Father’s personal negotiations will not help. Who should we send the diplomatic decree to with the elves in such chaos?

“Others may not necessarily obey the words of the interim government. You can see it from the arrogant ‘temporary public order squad’ today. Contacting other forces is equivalent to us abandoning the interim government and starting to side with them. In this way, every force will fear that we will interfere in their internal affairs, pushing us into a more dangerous situation.”

“Then, we can only wait.” Master Hayley was a little discouraged.

“Yeah, we can only wait.” I leaned against the window and looked at the elven soldiers hurrying back and forth. I muttered to myself, “But who said that waiting is useless? When everyone’s in a mess, it’s our advantage to stay calm and out of it. ”

I just didn’t know how long this advantage would last and how many people would be happy to see us maintain this status quo.

At night, the embassy was dark.

For safety’s sake, we tried to rest together. Dorothy and I squeezed into a single bed. In my memory, when we were still students, we used to squeeze together and talk at night, but the atmosphere now was much more dangerous than before.

I didn’t know why, but I suddenly felt a little emotional about life. The days of being an innocent and pure young girl were gone forever. It was as if my life had changed tremendously when I opened and closed my eyes. When I sat in the public high school of the Shadow Pack and was lost in my thoughts while listening to the history lecturer’s boastful speech, I never thought I would one day have to cross paths with the elves.

Speaking of a young girl’s fantasy, I never thought I would get married at such a young age or even become a mother.

An oil painting on the bedroom wall depicted the scene of the Goddess of Nature holding her adopted son. Dense white thorny vines surrounded them, and the bright red fruits were like fresh blood.

It was mother and son.

I wonder how my child was doing thousands of miles away.
