“Your Highness!”
The armored guards stepped to the side to make way for her.
Sally, who was wearing a silver long robe with gold trimmings, walked over surrounded by her guards. Her every move was queenly.
“Big Sister Sally, you are so pretty today!” Amy’s eyes were sparkling as she waved at Sally.
“She’s indeed very pretty!” Yabemiya also had a fangirl expression.
Mag looked at Sally with a smile too. The maiden that wandered around the restaurant back then, had become the queen of the elves.
“Your Highness.” Bennett bowed slightly.
The Black Queensguard knelt on one knee to show their respect.
Sally stopped next to Bennett and looked at Mag and the ladies with a surprised gaze. Her lips were turned upwards slightly, but she quickly stopped herself and maintained her queenly demeanor. She coldly said, “These are my friends. Bring them to the best spot to watch the ceremony.”
“Yes.”
Even though Bennett was still doubtful, he didn’t hesitate over Sally’s order and agreed immediately.
Sally nodded at Mag and the ladies before turning around to walk to the door.
At first, she thought that it would be a boring ceremony because none of the people whom she cared for would be present. She didn’t expect all of them to come.
No one dared to look straight at her, so nobody saw her faint smile.
Bennett looked at Mag and the ladies. Although he didn’t know how they became the princess’ friends, since the princess had issued the order, he would do as he was told.
“Bring the esteemed guests over to the reviewing stand and choose the best spot for them.” Bennett ordered that captain before cupping his hands at Mag and the ladies. “My apologies.” He then turned and left with Sally’s guards.
The elven captain looked awkward as he had stopped them earlier and threatened to arrest them. In the end, the queen proved him wrong personally.
These people in front of him were indeed the queen’s friends.
Furthermore, listening to that little girl’s form of address, they seemed to be rather close.
“T-this way please.” The captain forced a smile out before leading Mag and the ladies forward.
The coronation ceremony was held in front of the elves’ holy tree, the Tree of Life. The ancient altar and solemn-looking elves, only the Tree of Life’s branches that were swaying with the wind were playful.
The elven elders were sitting on the viewing stands. This time, they were not seated according to their statuses, but according to age. The older the person was, the closer he sat to the front.
The younger elves stood in the square underneath the square. Apart from the elves who were patrolling the borders, almost all the elves were taking part in this important ceremony.
There was no differentiation in their statuses. They were all standing on the square equally, just like how their forebears stood to watch the previous queen being crowned.
Countless gazes focused on Mag as soon as he entered.
“Who are they?”
“Didn’t they say no other races would come to watch the ceremony?”
“Humans, giant dragons, demons, half-elf… What kind of strange combination is this?”
Voices of wonder were spreading.
The elven captain brought them up to the stands. Mag didn’t choose the best spot in the middle, instead, he chose a corner where he could see the altar.
This was a celebration that belonged to the elves. Their presence was already a surprise, so they naturally couldn’t attract people’s attention by sitting in the most obvious spot.
The captain began to like Mag more. After arranging their seats, he said, “Please inform the staff members over there if you need any help.”
“Thank you.” Mag nodded and watched him leave.
“That big tree is so impressive.” Amy looked up at the Tree of Life with awe.
“This is the Tree of Life. It’s the elves’ holy tree and a spiritual tree.” Mag introduced smilingly.
The Tree of Life was very close to Irina. It had also saved her numerous times and helped her through those three tough years.
“I seem to have seen it move and it’s not being blown by the wind,” Anna said with shock.
“The Tree of Life has a spirit. The elders said it is the holy tree that is planted by the Goddess of Life herself. The elven race is connected to the Goddess of Life through it. Only the elf recognized by it could become the queen of the elves,” Shirley explained.
Right then, a branch from the Tree of Life suddenly flew straight towards Mag and the ladies in the stands like a green ribbon.
“Hm?”
Everyone present turned around to look at them with questions in their eyes. Why did the Tree of Life move suddenly?
The branch grew rapidly before stopping in front of Amy.
The soft branch touched Amy on her head gently as though it was caressing her head.
“Hehe. That’s ticklish!”
Amy laughed, but she didn’t evade.
A flower crown appeared on the branch and it was gently placed on Amy’s head. The tree gently patted Amy’s head and green light spots fell over her like petals, as if it was giving her its blessing.
The branch quickly retracted and gently swayed in the wind again, as though it didn’t do anything before.
The elves stared at this scene in shock. The Tree of Life actually put a flower crown on a half-elf and even blessed her?
The Tree of Life was spiritual but not all elves could receive its recognition and blessing.
In the past 100 years, only Irina and Sally had received the Tree of Life’s recognition and blessing.
And now, this little half-elf girl, who came to the Wind Forest for the very first time, actually received the Tree of Life’s blessing.
“It must be the Tree of Life blessing a visitor who came from afar. It doesn’t mean anything,” an elder said.
All the elves nodded in agreement. Only this explanation could make them feel better.
“Pretty. Pretty,” Kiddo clapped and said.
“Even the Tree of Life likes Little Amy,” Miya said with a smile.
However, Shirley had a shocked expression. Like the other elves present, she also knew the meaning of being blessed and recognized by the Tree of Life.
Amy wasn’t a pure elf. She had half human blood, so why did the Tree of Life choose her? Perhaps, the Tree of Life treated her differently due to her other half bloodline?
And there was that access token earlier. She only realized the preciousness of that access token after she saw it clearly.
Since Lady Boss didn’t come from the Wind Forest, then she shouldn’t have this token.
One could even say that only a few people could have this access token.
A bold idea emerged in her heart. She looked at Amy and that pair of bright blue eyes seemed so familiar. Moreover, her side profile let her see some coincidental contours.
“Then, Boss is…” Shirley’s pupils suddenly enlarged.
