Chapter 186 Astos is helping Kris? by Harem-Ham!

 

     After a week-long trip back to the Brackish-Swamps of the Dark Elf Kingdom, Duchess Carla Shadow-heart is finally almost home.

     Her gaze looks cold and irritated. Then before long she pulled out the letter left with the Moon Elf Wine and reread it.

     Based on the crumpled nature of the letter she has read it countless times, and it can be seen she even crumpled it up then re-flattened it.

     "[Fire 1!]"

     With that spell, her letter was turned to ash that blew away in the wind.

     "Stupid human woman, you are more of a Dark Elf than most of my people. How insidious of you wench, humph!"

     As Carla neared the entrance to her domain, she thought back on their failed assault, and then she sighs. As the sun was rising she looked to the Black Moon ready to vanish behind the mountaintops in the distance and shook her head.

     "Kris Tempest, you are a bastard! I hope you don't fall into my hands, because I will-"

     Then as she saw her massive river cavern-entrance get near, she slowed the boat and put her hand on her lower-belly with a single tear falling from her red-eye.

     "Sally Tempest, you and I are not done either, humph!"

     Back with my group........

     I am currently riding on Gold Rush and my team of the Crimson Court women are all on black chocobo. All the official members are coming for this first meeting of the five Legions. Plus I heard Dusk General finally showed up, giggling!

     When my group was readying to leave, Luna did not take no for an answer and she is wearing her cloud-robe unzipped, and joining me officially. Due to her identity being exposed she is no longer wearing her mask, and her beauty is distracting.

     The women with me are Luna, Eli, Mary, Manya, Mime, Bella, and Cali in my old Cloud disguise to hide her identity. Normally we would not all come out in such a large force but this is more of a big deal this time.

     And yes, Mary has also learned sign-language to talk with Mime. Mary is taking over for Cali as my official number one-right-hand, due to her long experience and reputation in the Crimson Court.

     So to better describe the geography of Oceanside, the airfields, and Elfheim, think of it as three separate elevations like a 3-step staircase. Oceanside is on sea-level, while the Grand Airship field is about 50 feet higher than sea-level. After the city-sized airship fields, the Capital Elfheim is about 50 feet above the airship fields.

     The distance from Oceanside to Elfheim is about 20 miles, and roughly a 1-hour carriage-ride away from each-other, this is why they are two separate territories. Just like with the Human Kingdom, the King only has direct rule over the Capital and the airship fields.

     The grand Airship field is divided in half. One half is for the military fleet led by General Elena Tempest, with the Flagship, The Brother Tempest, and other airships for a grand total of 40, sigh. The other half is for nobles and foreigners. This is where the Kings had parked their airships a year ago.

     While we flew over the airfield, Fake Cloud pointed to the military side and it was full of airships, and one rather large Flagship in black and silver colors, oh boy.

     My heart sank thinking how Elena is now in Elfheim. Somehow, I am starting to think we should move our headquarters to Oceanside? But would that keep a persistent woman from finding me? I still don't know how to handle a wife I have not even met in person, sigh.

     Well I have been here for a week and Lily has not bothered me, so how lucky can I be? No never-mind my luck is wild!

     We decided to not fly into the city and go land bound and just rip the band-aid off with the population seeing Luna. But Luna will keep many stacks of [Sabre] built up if anyone gets stupid with us. They wont know if they should bow to me or attack my wife.

     Eli and I will ride in front with Luna behind both of us in the center. Bella is right behind Luna with Mary behind me and Mime and Manya in her Cait Sith outfit behind Eli. Eli is in front with me due to her recognition and my looks. Any elf over 140 years of age should notice our looks.

     Mime has also been using [Mimic] to copy every stack of [Sabre] Luna casts, so yeah, don't fuck with us.

     As we approach the front main-ramp to enter the City the guards went on alert seeing Luna, so I did the whole 'dog and pony' of making them bow and showing my Magic Slab to prove Luna's identity, yes she is married to their Elf Prince and the Elf don't know how to handle this. All of Elfheim already knows about my Dark Elf wife due to trying to besmirch my name, by Forerunner.

     Remember what I said back in the day? I am the ONLY Elf in all of known history to marry a Dark Elf, not to fuck one, cough, but actually wed one.

     I underestimated the power of the cloud-robes we wore, for they seem to frighten more than half the elf away from us. I was surprised no elf went on a murder-hobo rush at Luna, but if she were alone, it would be different. Fake Cloud says to astonish me.

     "Kris, most of the shock is actually your aura and face. The older elf can't tell you apart from Lore, plus Eli is at your side, so it is no surprise they are afraid of angering you. Not even Forerunner gets this much fearful respect."

     "But, I thought I was a kind ruler?"

     "Ufufu, Yes, but with my sister and your sister, do you think any common elf would dare get close to you? Hell I had to sneak to meet with you back then."

    Eli smiles and says to me. If this story is on any-other site than Scribble Hub, then it was stolen without permission!

     "She is right, her sister and yours always grit their teeth when I was around, those days were fun pissing those two off, ha-ha!"

     Luna tells me.

     "Actually, I had to hide out of sight of everyone for so long that even these glares of hate and fear felt nice to me, so don't be offended, husband. When you sit on your throne you can flaunt me in public, Ufufu!"

     I look back at Luna in surprise and say to her.

     "Damn, who is tainting my Luna?! I can't believe you are starting to be playful."

    She squints her eyes and grins, while pointing at me. Oh, it's my fault, damn.

     After we made it past the mass of bowing elves, we finally made it to the Capital center to my old mansion turned base and bar. When I saw its name I almost fell off Gold Rush?!

     [Sister Elena's Bar and Dance]

     Okay my brain legit stopped functioning for all but bodily functions, like breathing and pumping the heart, but thoughts, nope!

     "HAH-AHA, The look on your face is so fucking great, my dipstick husband! Your past-trauma just reared its head, didn't it, hah aha!"

     "Sorry Kris, but when she gave me the building, she demanded to know what it was for, and, um, she said she would only give it if we used this name, sorry~ Ufufu!"

     I really want to slap Eli and Fake Cloud right now, sigh. Then I felt a non-aggressive gaze on me, and I looked around and found nothing abnormal, but the cold-chill was creepy. Bella, the ever present warrior woman asked me.

     "Master, are we in danger?!"

     "No Bell, but someone was watching me intently but now it's gone. Let's stable our mounts and head in."

     Elsewhere in the Elf Castle........

     Mel and his 1st Queen are having a private dinner together and drinking Elf wine of the top quality.

     The male servant pushes the food-cart to the two royal elves and passes the dishes.

     The 1st Queen says to Mel.

     "It's been a week and what have you accomplished, you useless husband? Elwin is still not avenged."

     "Kay damn it, get the fuck over it and help me make a new kid, stop your fucking obsession with Kris. Sounds like you would just go fuck him to death, you annoying bitch."

     Kay stands and points to his face and starts to rip into him but...

     "Mel, you piece of sh- BLARE!"

     Blood shot from her mouth and right into his face. Mel was shocked to see a black-blade with a sinister-light on its edge, sticking out of Kay's heart from the back. The servant man that brought the food said coldly to King Forerunner.

     "My King Astos, sends his greetings, and since you Dare rape his woman Duchess Carla Shadow-heart, then he will just take your Queen, the next time you betray him, your next."

     The servant pulled the blade out of the Queen, then stabbed his own heart ending his life. He died mounted on top of the Queen's body.

     Mel Forerunner was surprised and horrified why Astos was trying to kill him with their special contact. Yes this guy was his point of contact with the Dark King.

     After careful investigations by the guards, it was found this servant had been bred and trained in the Underdark. The blade was a special enchanted weapon, to not allow the Life 1 or 2 spell from reviving the target brought to zero health. An expensive weapon that can only affect low-level targets like the Queen.

     This move by the Dark King rocked all of Elfland!
