Meanwhile, Vinya, standing beside her, showed a slight change in expression, appearing somewhat worried.
She never expected that Kokot had summoned the elves to announce this matter.
She was very worried about the reactions of the other elves.
After all, the elves had always lived in a secluded forest.
Even the elves who once set foot in the human world mostly only lived in Braxton.
Once the Elf Forest is fully open to the outside world, it will mean that any human can easily enter it.
These elves, who are not good at interacting with people, are likely to feel repulsed and resistant to the sudden influx of unfamiliar humans.
After all, no one wants to leave their doors wide open and let outsiders come and go as they please.
However, this time, it was Vinya who was overthinking things.
After Kokot finished speaking, no elf felt fear or disgust.
On the contrary, their eyes revealed a strong sense of anticipation and joy.
Upon seeing this, Vinya was slightly taken aback.
That's true.
In fact, the Elven race itself did not have the mentality of being isolated or xenophobic.
In the past, the vast majority of elves spent their entire lives in the Elf Forest.
After death, the spirits' bodies would turn into energy and return to nature.
So the elves are basically all shut-ins.
During these ten years, Viktor burned down the Tree of Adriana, thus liberating the classes within the elves.
At the same time, the elves were mostly extradited back to Brayston, allowing them to integrate into human society.
This has led to a much higher level of acceptance among these reclusive elves.
Moreover, elves are a kind race; they know how to repay kindness and treat each other with respect.
Because they had been to the Empire, a human nation that had welcomed them warmly.
Therefore, if the Elf Forest were to be opened up, humans could come to their home for sightseeing and even to live there.
It doesn't seem so unacceptable.
However, many elves remain extremely curious about one question.
Why did the Queen suddenly announce the opening of the Elf Forest?
Then, as if sensing the elves' confusion, Kokot continued to explain.
This explanation immediately caused an uproar among the elves.
"Ah, it's actually very simple, because those six natural realms have disappeared."
"I gave them away to others."
As he said this, Cocote stood with his hands on his hips, speaking with an air of self-righteousness.
His slightly raised head exuded an air of pride.
Whoosh—
As soon as the words were spoken, the elves in the bushes all widened their eyes and pricked up their ears, as if they had heard unbelievable news.
A look of astonishment and disbelief froze on the faces of every elf as they stared at Kokot, their bodies motionless like statues.
What does this mean?
The elves allowed the Elf Forest to be open to the outside world, but they did not allow the six natural areas protecting the Elf Forest to be given away to others.
The natural realm is a shared treasure of the elves, and it has always been a protective shield that keeps the Elf Forest from being discovered by the outside world.
Now, the protective umbrella is gone.
Who will protect them?
As a result, Kokot's behavior has made many elves dissatisfied.
To reiterate, if we went back ten years, the elves would never have had any objection to Kokot's behavior.
Because of the class system, the elves held the queen in unconditional worship and deep respect.
After all, in the lush and verdant Elf Forest, only the Elf Queen can reproduce.
However, today, with the liberation of thought and the change in the concept of reproduction, the elves no longer maintain a simple and absolute worship of Kokot.
More questions arose in their minds, which emboldened the elves to confront the Queen and voice their doubts.
Therefore, even though the Elf Queen had announced her decision, some elves still bravely pressed for the reasons behind it.
"Your Majesty, why do you want to cede the natural domain to others?"
“That’s right. The natural realm is a precious legacy created and protected by our elven race for generations. How can we just give it away like that?”
"Your Majesty, to whom did you bestow this territory?"
Hearing the elves' doubts, Kokot's lips curled up slightly.
Then, she suddenly reached out, grabbed Victor behind her, and pulled him in front of her.
"Of course...it's him!"
The initial dissatisfaction and doubts dissipated like smoke, replaced by boundless respect and trust.
It turns out it was the Calamity Father who was given to them; then it's alright.
Although the respect for the Elf Queen became filled with rational skepticism after the liberation of thought,
But the elves held even deeper reverence for Viktor, the Father of Calamities, who had just revived all the calamities to their full potential.
To them, this natural realm was nothing more than a precious gift from the Queen to her father, the father of calamity.
A daughter giving her father a gift—isn't that a sign of filial piety?
Although the natural realm is the protective umbrella of the Elf Forest, they no longer feel any pity or resentment.
Why?
They have fathers!
At this moment, Viktor's attention was still entirely on his achievement reward.
Because there is one more award that has not been fully verified.
Just now, Kokot suddenly grabbed him and brought him in front of the elves.
This caught him somewhat off guard.
But he didn't have time to ask any more questions, because Kokot had already quietly retreated behind Viktor.
When all the elves' eyes were focused on their father, who had gathered the power of the six natural forces, their eyes were filled with reverence and awe.
