Do you know anything about the Elve Clan?
In fact, it wasn’t only the Light Elves’ Elve Clan that had a strict hierarchy. The Night Elves, who were collectively called ‘dirty and lowly bastards’ by the Light Elves, also had a strict hierarchy.
Night Elves with nice appearances and powerful wings were called ‘Hope’. They were the ‘hope’ of the Night Elves because their powerful wings meant they were the most likely ones to become Beast Tamers and awaken their beast form.
The entire Night Elf Clan used their resources on them, and they also had the heavy responsibility of leading the Night Elves to success.
From the moment ‘Hope’ was born, they would be sent to Night City by the elders in their administrative area to receive a comprehensive education.
Night City was the only city for the Night Elves. This city wasn’t even as prosperous as a small town of the Light Elves, but it was the hope of the Night Elves.
In addition, the rich and well-off Night Elves were called ‘seeders’. They were like farm owners who used their money to hire laborers, plant crops, and raise a large number of Night Elves.
Other than them, the other Night Elves were collectively called ‘loafers’.
If one lived a long life without achieving anything, one would be a loafer.
This type of Night Elves were ugly, had deformed wings, and were impoverished. Naturally, ‘loafers’ had no right to live in the city. They had lived in remote and barren places for generations.
The demonic cave at the northernmost end of the Light Sea was the most barren place in the entire Light Sea. The environment was the worst and the productivity was the lowest. It was also the area where the ‘loafers’ lived.
At the foot of the demonic cave, there were four villages.
In the south, there was the village of Soran, in the north, the village of Luna, in the east, the village of Cuijia, and the village of Soran in the west.
There was a hill in the west of the demonic cave, and Soran Village was located here. Because of the black seawater near the demonic cave, the soil of Soran Village was corroded by the black seawater all year round and became unsuitable for vegetation. Now, there wasn’t even a single decent tree in the village.
There were only two crops in the village, which were potatoes and something called vine-rooted sweet potatoes. These two things happened to be the favorite food of some cave demon beasts.
Often, when the crops in the field were about to ripen, they would be secretly eaten by the cave demon beasts, causing the production of the crops in the entire village to be even lower.
Not only that, but Soran Village, which was in the west, also had to endure the strongest UV rays in the Light Sea in the afternoon. The sun hung in the sky like a furnace and roasted every Night Elf who was hunched over the black soil, making their already dark skin even darker.
At night, the hurricane that blew from the Black Sea of the demonic cave made the entire Soran Village wail in misery.
It could be said that Soran Village was the worst place among the four villages in the demonic cave.
A girl born in a village near the demonic cave had grown up hearing this— A lazy and ugly female elf would have to marry into Soran Village.
One could imagine how poor the Soran Village was.
Estelle Lukas Soran was Estelle’s full name.
This name meant that he was born in the village of Soran on the west side of the demonic cave. He was the son of the Lukas family and his name was Estelle.
In the Elven language, Estelle meant hope.
Naming the child Estelle meant that he was the hope of the Lukas family.
Estelle’s family had lived in the Soran Village for generations.
Born in the poor Soran Village, it was destined that it would be very difficult for Estelle to get a wife. After all, the old village chief in their village who had gone to school for a few years and had even gone to Light City when he was young was still a bachelor.
Besides, with Estelle’s ugly appearance, he was ranked at the bottom among
the Night Elves. Not to mention, he had lost his parents when he was young, and he even had to raise his two younger siblings.
With all these factors added together, the possibility of Estelle finding a wife was zero.
Everyone in the village thought that Estelle would stay single forever.
Even Estelle thought so himself.
Estelle lost his father at five and his mother at seven.
The year his mother passed away, his brother was only five years old, and his sister was only two years old.
Estelle had been exceptionally strong ever since he was young..
