Chapter 1150 Unforeseen Force at Play

Lyon, who basked in the glory, asked, "What are you here for?"

The leader of the golems, its voice resonating with the timbre of ancient stone, answered Lyon's query. "You, esteemed emperor," it intoned, "Golem remember your feat. Golem survived because of an esteemed hero. Welcome esteemed hero to our city."

A faint smirk graced Lyon's lips as he acknowledged the gesture. "Stand up," he commanded.

In perfect synchrony, every golem rose, their colossal forms straightening as if in salute to the emperor. The sight was a testament to the enduring memory and gratitude of these elemental beings.

Yala's wide eyes took in the monumental scene, her lips slightly parted in awe. The immense power displayed by Lyon and the recognition from the golems left her both humbled and inspired. As the golems rose in unison, Yala couldn't help but murmur to herself, "To think Uncle Lyon faced all this and more... It's beyond extraordinary."

The leader of the golems addressed Lyon, "Golems invite Emperor Hero to our city."

Rakumtatak, ever the vigilant warrior, grinned knowingly. "An envoy, huh?"

The golems nodded in confirmation. Cecile, always the strategist, stepped forward, whispering a cautionary note into Lyon's ear. "Lyon, remember, there is always a chance that it's a trap."

Lyon, aware of the risks, nodded in acknowledgment. The news of his return to the living had undoubtedly reached various corners of existence, leaving a trail of awe and concern. Despite the uncertainty, Lyon's resolve remained unyielding. Cecile, recognizing the weight of her husband's decision, smiled and nodded, standing by his side.

"Then we'll pay a visit," Lyon declared, his stance regal and chin slightly raised. The decision was made, and Eldora's emperor was ready to face whatever awaited him in the enigmatic city of the golems.

The golems, resembling living statues, maintained their stoic posture. "Golems lead Emperor Hero," they intoned in unison. As Lyon took the first steps, the golems followed suit, creating a procession that captured the attention of onlookers. Yala, witnessing the scene, couldn't help but feel a sense of reverence for her uncle. "Uncle Lyon, this is like a tale from our legends," she murmured, her eyes filled with wonder. novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

Rakumtatak's decision to part ways with Lyon carried the weight of a fulfilled purpose. "Torga, I will return once you remember our promise," he declared. Lyon, initially surprised, smiled warmly and nodded in acknowledgment.

Elandril, standing alongside his wife Iris and daughter Yala, extended his best wishes to Lyon in the quest to find Maria. "Good luck, my friend," he said earnestly.

Iris, with a touch of maternal concern, added, "Never waver, Lyon."

Lyon reciprocated the sentiments, nodding appreciatively. Before Lyon embarked on his journey, Cecile offered a strategic piece of advice to the elven rulers. "Be careful, Elandril, Iris, Yala. There might be hidden forces at play among your elders. The fact that they are daring to go against you means they have a card that could make them win. Rule with heart, not kindness."

Cecile's words carried a hidden message, and she punctuated it with a smirk and a wink, making it clear that she intended her advice to be public. The watching elders, especially Ithildril, didn't hide their displeasure.

Elandril, sensing the underlying tension, thanked Cecile for her counsel. "The advice is welcome," he acknowledged, aware that the political landscape within Eldora held its own complexities. The departure of Rakumtatak and the impending journey of Lyon marked a pivotal moment for Eldora, and the dynamics within the elven society were shifting.

Rakumtatak's hearty laughter echoed through the air as he leaped into the distance, vanishing from sight. Lyon watched the departure with a bemused smile, noting the orc's theatrical exit. "I'll await the second round, Torga! Hahahahah!" Rakumtatak's laughter lingered in the air, gradually fading away.

Rakumtatak's laughter echoed through the air as he leaped over the entire expanse of Eldora, disappearing from sight. Lyon, watching the orc emperor vanish into the distance, couldn't help but comment, "Heh, like an old villain." The humor in his voice hinted at the camaraderie they had developed despite their differences. The departure of Rakumtatak added another layer to the intricate tapestry of Lyon's return and the changing dynamics within Eldora. The challenges that lay ahead seemed to multiply, each thread in the narrative contributing to a story that was far from reaching its climax.

Elandril turned around after watching Lyon departed, his demeanor expressing weariness as he addressed the elders gathered in the throne room. "The discussion will continue another day; for now, I am fatigued and need rest." His words carried the weight of both exhaustion and authority, signaling the end of the current deliberation.

The elders nodded reluctantly, their facial expressions betraying their true opinions. Powerless in the face of the emperor's decision, they watched as the royal family retreated back into the palace. Despite the facade of unity, astute political observers could sense the charged atmosphere, pregnant with unsaid words and brewing tensions.

In the wake of Elandril's departure, the elders exchanged guarded glances, each harboring their own thoughts on the matter. It was evident that the issues at hand ran deeper than the surface conflicts. The air in the throne room, thick with unspoken grievances, lingered even after the emperor's departure. The looming shadows of political intrigue danced in the corners, waiting for the right moment to reveal themselves.

As they dispersed, the elders couldn't shake the feeling that the storm had merely subsided, biding its time until the next tempest would inevitably arrive.

The dimly lit room, adorned with elven tapestries and ancient artifacts, hosted the clandestine meeting of the elven elders. The air hung heavy with tension, punctuated by the soft rustle of scrolls and the occasional murmur of discontent. The elder council, each cloaked figure bearing the weight of centuries, sat around a grand table crafted from the sacred trees of Eldora.

The flickering candlelight cast shadows that danced upon the elaborate carvings of the table, illuminating the strained expressions on the faces of the elders. Ithildir, with his piercing gaze and commanding presence, sat at the head, the orchestrator of their carefully calculated moves.

The elven elders engaged in a verbal joust, their arguments echoing through the ornate chamber. Ithildir, the mastermind of the covert assembly, stood at the forefront, orchestrating the discourse with an air of authority.

The elders, shrouded in mystery with cloaks drawn tight, gathered around a long table. Candlelight flickered, casting elongated shadows on the polished floor, as the elven aristocracy clashed over their clandestine plans.

One elder, with a skeptical demeanor, challenged Ithildir's strategy. "The emperor's meeting did not go as intended. His actions have stirred the emotions of the people, and the sudden appearance of golems only adds complexity to our scheme."

Ithildir responded, leaning forward with unwavering confidence. "Do not be deceived by appearances. The orc's departure is a stroke of brilliance, sowing doubt among the populace about their emperor's intentions. As for the golems, we shall turn their presence into a display of our strength, emphasizing the need for unity against external threats. It didn't go as planned, but it didn't ruin the plan; in fact, it was perfect," Ithildir asserted with a confident grin."

The elders, still uncertain, nodded in agreement, trusting Ithildir's strategic acumen. The dark undercurrents of political machinations continued to swirl, and the elders plotted their next moves in this intricate game for power within the elven realm.

Another elder, wearing a sly grin, interjected, "And what of our alliance with Purgatory? Can we truly rely on them?"

Ithildir's gaze turned steely. "Trust matters little in the realm of politics. Purgatory sees an opportunity, and as long as our goals align, they will support us. Our true strength lies in the shadows, where alliances are forged, and destinies reshaped."

The deliberations continued, the Throne Room witnessing the intricate dance of power as the elven elders navigated the complexities of their plots. The flickering candles bore witness to the escalating tension, casting shadows that mirrored the intricate twists of their political machinations. In this chamber of secrets, the future of Eldora hung precariously, swaying with each argument and counterargument.

One elder, with a hint of concern etched on his face, addressed Ithildir. "The Zodiac Emperor's return may disrupt our carefully laid plans. He is unpredictable, and his actions could sway public opinion against us."

Ithildir, however, welcomed the complication with a calculated smile. "On the contrary, his return is a boon. Purgatory and the Zodiac Emperor share a tumultuous history. If anything, his reappearance will ignite the flames of their rivalry, creating a distraction that we can exploit. The people, drawn to the spectacle, will be less likely to scrutinize our true intentions."

The elven elders exchanged glances, the flickering candlelight casting shadows on their inscrutable expressions. The room became a crucible of intrigue, where every word carried the weight of destiny. As the conversation continued, the elven elders found themselves entangled in a web of schemes and counter-schemes, their clandestine machinations reaching a crescendo.
