While Ai Li was killing people in the fairy village, Ai Zi in the palace was also facing a difficult situation.

To put it simply...her students were divided.

Of course, it doesn't seem right to say that there is a split, because there is only one person who is isolated, and that is Tianzhihe Guanghui.

After the training, Ellie patted her butt and ran away, but the mess she left behind had to be dealt with by everyone.

Tianzhihe Guanghui insisted that all this was Ai Li's conspiracy. He called on everyone not to be fooled by Ai Li, and to unite around him as before, and let himself, the brave man, lead everyone forward. In Tianzhihe Guanghui's view, this is the most effective way to break the conspiracy.

However, the other students, led by Kaori, were completely unwilling to continue fighting with Tianzhihe Guanghui. If it were the first time they came here, they might have been reluctant to refuse because of face or companions. But after being wiped out in the illusion, for everyone, face or life is more important - this is no longer a choice.

Indeed, Tian Zhihe Guanghui used to be quite popular in the class and was the center of the class. But after being wiped out so many times in the illusion, everyone was fed up. And the others were not blind. Every time they were at a disadvantage or wiped out, Tian Zhihe Guanghui was basically the culprit. To be honest, they were fed up too.

If you die in a fantasy world, you can be resurrected, but who can resurrect you if you die in reality?

If the students did not have any particularly vivid impression of death before, after experiencing a series of deaths in the illusion such as being bitten by goblins, having their throats slit, and having their stomachs cut, they understood better than anyone the preciousness of life - their lives were not to be sacrificed in vain just to help others look cool.

Seeing Tian Zhihe Guanghui's unrepentant look, everyone immediately lost all confidence in her.

Tian Zhihe Guanghui was also very dissatisfied with this. He thought that everyone was deceived by Ai Li, which made everyone alienate him. So Tian Zhihe Guanghui secretly made up his mind to make everyone return to his side. So he took the elite of the Knights to go outside to destroy the monsters. In Tian Zhihe Guanghui's view, as long as he could return smoothly, everyone should understand his true strength.

The result was… they were annihilated, and they came back, but half of the knights were lost. Tian Zhihe Guanghui said that it was because their level was too low and their strength was too weak, so they were sacrificed accidentally - and as a result, everyone was further away from him.

It can be said that in the minds of all students, Tianzhihe Guanghui’s role as the “engine of total annihilation” has been completely determined.

Being with this guy, I feel like I won't be able to survive even if I have several lives to spare.

As a teacher, Aiko certainly didn't want to see her students in this situation, so she talked to Kaori. In Aiko's impression, Kaori was a very gentle and kind girl. But what Aiko didn't expect was that Kaori directly rejected Aiko's proposal and said that she would be responsible for everyone's lives. After saying this, Aiko couldn't continue. If she continued to force them to accept Tianzhihe Guanghui's words, it would feel like sending them to their deaths. As a teacher, she couldn't live with her conscience.

Tian Zhihe Guanghui was also stuck in a dead end, trying desperately to prove himself. Aiko also talked to him about it, but Tian Zhihe Guanghui still had that look of "I'm not wrong, this is all the witch's conspiracy, I will definitely prove myself to them", which left Aiko speechless.

Fortunately, Tianzhihe Guanghui's holy sword has been broken by Ellie, and it will take a long time to repair it. Therefore, even if Tianzhihe Guanghui wants to prove himself, he can't act now.

As for Kaori and other classmates, they have followed Captain Meld and set out again to kill monsters to gain experience. At the same time, it is also a reflection of the gap between illusion and reality, accumulating more experience for combat.

Therefore, now only Aiko and Tianzhihe Guanghui remain in the palace, and everyone else has left the royal city.

Seeing the depressed Tianzhihe Guanghui, Aiko was helpless, but she didn't know what to say, which made Aiko very upset...

"So, this is the farming work for this time, is that ok, Miss Aiko?"

"Why?"

Hearing the king's voice, Aiko looked up in surprise, then remembered that she was currently in a meeting and her face suddenly turned red.

"Hmm, sorry..."

"Hahaha, it's okay. Miss Aiko is worried about the students. I understand."

The king nodded with a smile.

"So, regarding the work arrangements..."

"No problem, please leave it to me."

Aiko nodded vigorously, but at this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then a guard walked in.

"Your Majesty, there is urgent information."

"oh?"

Hearing this, the king was stunned.

"What information?"

"An elf lady came to the palace and announced that she brought news that the Fairy Village had been attacked."

"What?"

Hearing this, not only the king, but also the other ministers present were shocked. Although the elves and humans did not have any close contacts, they had signed an alliance to fight against the demon army in the south. Humans also had confidence in the fighting power of the elves. However... the elves were attacked? By whom?

"Bring her in right now!"

Following the king's order, the guards soon came in with a young elf girl. She looked miserable, as if she had just escaped. Just looking at the elf girl in front of him made Aizi feel pity. Unfortunately, she didn't have any healing skills, so she could only stand by and worry.

"Hello, King of Men, I am Philimes Palenas, the daughter of the Elf Chief Potimas..."

"Hello, Miss Philimes."

In front of the elven princess, the king seemed very calm.

"I heard that the elves were attacked. What is the current situation?"

"No, that..."

Hearing the king's question, the elf girl lowered her head.

"The Fairy Village has been...completely destroyed."

"What?!"

Faced with this unexpected answer, not only the king was shocked, even the Pope and other high officials were stunned. When they received the news just now, they thought that the elves were attacked and sought help and support from humans, but in the end... they were all wiped out?

"Who are the enemies? Are they the demon army?"

The king immediately became nervous. He was very clear about the strength of the elves. Although they were relatively few in number, their combat strength far exceeded that of humans. This was also the reason why humans and elves formed an alliance. However, the powerful elves were actually destroyed? Did the demon army have such a capability? If so, then humans really had no way to survive.

However, the elf girl's answer was beyond everyone's expectations.

"The one who attacked the Fairy Village... was a witch!"

"...Witch?"

"Yes, a witch with white hair, sitting on a broom, wearing a black cloak and a pointy hat!"

The elf girl excitedly started talking about the other party's battle - the barrier that protected the fairy village for thousands of years was destroyed for some reason, and then the witch fell from the sky. In order to stop her, the elves in the fairy village attacked the witch, but the other party just raised the magic wand in his hand and waved it lightly, and then the elves died completely. Not only the elves, but also all living things including flowers, plants and trees were wiped out.

After that, the elves used their secret weapons, but they were completely defeated by the thunder controlled by the witch. She even summoned a huge black blade, turning the entire forest into a sea of ​​fire...

“…”

Listening to the fairy girl's story, Aiko's expression twitched constantly. In fact, she had already guessed who the witch was that the other party was talking about. In fact, based on Aiko's impression of her, it was not surprising at all that person did such a thing...but what was strange was, why did she attack the elves?

After all, they are elves, not goblins...

"Understood."

The king had a blank expression on his face throughout the elf girl's narration. He only nodded after the elf girl finished speaking.

"It seems to be a very serious situation. I will send someone to investigate immediately... Hey!"

As he spoke, the king called his servants and gave them a few instructions, asking them to send someone to investigate the fairy village, and then let the elf girl go down to rest.

After the elf girl left, the king looked at the Pope.

"It seems the situation is serious."

"That's right."

The Pope nodded, and both of them looked quite calm, which made Aizi very confused. Didn't they expect that the witch was Miss Ellie? This was not impossible. After all, they had never met Miss Ellie and probably had no impression of her. But he knew about her, so what should he do?

"Ms. Aiko, you should go take care of your work."

At this moment, the king noticed Aiko's gaze and spoke something, and Aiko nodded hastily and walked out of the meeting room.

She did not notice that when she left the meeting room, the corners of the king's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile.

"It seems that we humans are not completely hopeless."

After his beloved son left, the king looked at the Pope again, and the latter nodded.

"That witch must be the child I mentioned before. I never thought she would have such power..."

"No matter what, we must find out the whole story."

Although he said this, the king looked very relaxed. The reason was simple. He knew who the witch the elf girl was talking about. After all, she had such obvious features that he could tell her clearly just by listening to his subordinates' reports, even if he had never met her.

He understood the meaning of the elf girl. She hoped to use the human's hand to destroy the witch. But the elf girl obviously didn't know that the witch had some relationship with her and others. More importantly, in order to incite the human's sense of crisis, the elf girl deliberately told all the details of Ai Li's battle. In her opinion, with such a powerful and terrifying enemy, humans would definitely not sit idly by.

Of course, the premise is the enemy.

If it is an enemy, we cannot just sit back and watch.

But if it's a friendly party, it's different!

He is strong enough to annihilate the entire elf race by himself? With such a strong man helping him, what else do we need elves for? !

Of course, although that’s what I said, I still have to listen to the situation before making a decision. No matter what, the other party can’t attack the elves without any reason.

If there is a legitimate reason, then... they can also let it go, right?
