"A coward is a coward, only capable of doing this kind of thing! If we talk about it, if the demons dare to come, we'll beat them until they never return!" Latis said, slinging the bow over her shoulder.
"There are plenty of wizards in the demon race, but we elves have more archers. Fight them? Are you out of your mind?" Thebeas said, feeling unsatisfied, and added, "Big chest, no brains!"
"What?" Latis jumped up, about to lose control, but was stopped by Uncle Nino.
"Thebeas has a point. If it really comes down to it, that's all we can do!"
Thebeas smugly made a face at Latis, who clenched her fists in anger.
"Right, a few days ago a wounded human mage came here, and I saved him. He said his name was Nie Ru..."
"Nie Ru!" This time it was Thebeas's turn to scream in surprise.
"What?"
"Nie Ru is now a top-tier wanted criminal. The human race is offering ten million gold coins and a count's title for him!" Latis said, trembling, unsure if it was excitement or fear.
"?"
"He was part of the old regime party. I heard that he wiped out one-third of the members of the Bloodstorm Crusaders all by himself." Thebeas said. "How long has he been here?"
"Uh... just left..."
"No way!" Thebeas cried out in anguish. "Where did he go?"
"Probably to chase after a priest named Biluo."
"Biluo!" Two more cries of surprise.
"What's wrong now? Are you two done?"
"The genius girl Biluo, the aircraft maker... it was thanks to the aircraft she made that determined the victory of the new regime…" Thebeas covered his face with his hands. "Oh my god, it's over, it's over, it's over. They're both here, we definitely can't mix with the humans…"
"Nie Ru being here, humans investigating is understandable. But isn't Biluo here fine?" Uncle Nino asked, puzzled.
"Are you stupid... why would the new regime gang leave? Because she knows if she stays, she's doomed! Politics is dark. Biluo staying is far too dangerous for them, they will definitely get rid of her! Now both of them are here with us… Goddess Reiga! Save us!"
Uncle Nino finally realized the gravity of the situation: "Then... then what do we do?"
Latis shook her head; she really was 'big chest, no brains,' completely clueless about this matter.
"I have a solution!" Thebeas suddenly jumped up."Stop being so jumpy, alright! Aren't you afraid other spirits might hear us now?" Nino complained.\"No… it's just… uh, I'm too excited!" Tibias said mysteriously. "We must go all out to find them!" "What for?" "Hehehe!" Tibias laughed lecherously, and only then did he seem the most like a man. "To have them under our control. When negotiating with humans and demons, it would be our two trump cards, benefiting us on both sides! Especially with the demons, I think they wouldn't mind having two extra people around! At worst, we'll maintain a good relationship with them and use their power… that way our future will definitely…" After saying this, he grabbed four coins next to him and threw them onto the table. The four coins rolled a few times and stopped, forming a perfect square. "Four stars clashing, bad omen, very unlucky!" "Something's wrong, High Priest!" an elf rushed in. "Thousand Tears Lake… it's all blood…"\Done for now, patting my butt and leaving; tomorrow night I'll be in 11th grade.
