Chapter 427: Chapter 294: Two Princesses, You Wouldn’t Want... The Elf Queen’s Night Raid!?

"This is..."

Alina’s eyes flickered, and her heart couldn’t help but race.

The Holy Light hidden behind the clouds and mist nearly triggered her megalophobia.

She had sketched Su Xuan’s body once before, but this was completely different from that simple drawing session.

Perhaps it was the hazy moonlight, combined with the close contact, that allowed Alina to personally experience the terror of the Holy Light.

She tried to measure it with her fingers... ’Is it really four fingers wide?’

GULP~

A little frightened, Alina turned around, her back facing Su Xuan.

She said softly, "Anyway, those are the two options. If you really want to help the Elf Kingdom, then find a way to meet one of those two conditions!"

"Alright, I’ll remember that."

Su Xuan didn’t notice Alina’s strange behavior, simply committing the two methods to memory.

Besides, Edith had said that she also had a way to save the Elf Kingdom.

He didn’t know the details, but having a third option would naturally be much safer.

Moreover, since it was a war, casualties would be unavoidable.

As the Elf Queen’s Knight, he naturally hoped the Elf Kingdom could avoid any casualties.

"So, when can you arrange for me to have an audience with the Elf Queen?" Su Xuan continued to ask Alina.

Alina answered Su Xuan, "Tomorrow morning, in about four hours, the Queen will awaken and begin to handle the various affairs of the Elf Kingdom. You’ll be able to see the Queen then."

"That early?"

Su Xuan was a little surprised to hear her words.

’It’s only around ten o’clock at night right now. Doesn’t that mean the Elf Queen goes to sleep at eight every night and wakes up at two in the morning to handle the kingdom’s affairs?’

’That...’

’It seems being a monarch isn’t as easy and carefree as one might imagine.’

"Then I’ll sleep for a bit and wait for four hours."

Having said that, Su Xuan closed his eyes, planning to wait for the Elf Queen to awaken in Alina’s chambers.

"Suit yourself," Alina replied casually, seemingly not paying much attention to Su Xuan’s words.

Before long, however, she heard the sound of Su Xuan’s steady breathing.

?

Alina turned around, her gaze focused.

Looking at Su Xuan’s peaceful sleeping face, she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy. ’I wish I had his ability to fall asleep the moment my head hits the pillow!’

"Hm?"

Alina’s gaze suddenly shifted downward, noticing the faintly shimmering Holy Light.

’Even when he’s asleep... it’s still so energetic?’

Her heart filled with curiosity, unable to comprehend the principles of the Holy Light. ’Even in deep sleep, *It* still maintains such vigorous vitality?’

Alina stared at Su Xuan for a long time and gradually grew a little bored. An impulse to do *something* rose within her.

She extended a slender, jade-like finger and gently touched the tip of Su Xuan’s nose, as if to test whether he was truly fast asleep.

However, Su Xuan didn’t react at all.

’He’s sleeping like a log!’

Alina grumbled, and then her gaze once again fell involuntarily upon the Holy Light.

Perhaps out of a sense of curiosity and rebelliousness, a strange impulse suddenly bloomed within her—the desire to tease the sleeping Su Xuan.

Driven by this impulse, Alina gently parted the mists obscuring her view. Her movements were soft and careful, as if afraid of disturbing Su Xuan’s slumber.

As the Holy Light was revealed, its brilliant radiance shone on her cheeks, making it difficult for her to open her eyes!

’How can it be so dazzling!’

To avoid the patrolling Elves outside her chambers from noticing anything unusual, Alina quickly reached out and tried to cover the Holy Light.

However, how could her action possibly obscure the brilliant radiance of the Holy Light?

What’s more, that pair of slender, smooth, jade-like hands now served only as fuel, making the Holy Light even more magnificent!

In an instant!

The Holy Light grew even more dazzling, threatening to illuminate the entire chamber!

"Such a dazzling light!"

"What’s happening?"

"It’s Princess Alina’s chambers! Quick, let’s go see!"

"..."

The Elf Guards patrolling outside the chambers immediately noticed the anomaly and rushed over.

’This is bad!’

Alina’s dark brows furrowed instantly, her heart in a panic.

She hastily covered Su Xuan’s body with the bedding, trying to block the brilliant Holy Light.

But how could a mere mortal object conceal the light of the sun?

Although the intensity of the light was somewhat reduced, it was still difficult to contain!

"Your Highness, has something happened?"

By this time, the Elf Guards had arrived outside the door, calling out to Alina inside the room.

"It’s nothing, there’s no need to worry." Alina did her best to remain calm, explaining to the Elf Guards in a steady voice, "I was just researching a brand-new Magic spell."

"As long as everything is alright."

"Then we’ll resume our patrol duties. Your Highness, please be sure to rest early." After learning that all was well, the Elf Guards respectfully turned and went back to their duties.

Seeing this, Alina let out a long sigh of relief.

However, when she looked up again and her gaze met the brilliant Holy Light, her relaxed expression instantly turned serious and grim.

’This thing...’

For a moment, she was at a loss, not knowing how to make the Holy Light calm down.

’If I let *It* continue like this, then when Su Xuan wakes up, wouldn’t that mean...’

A faint blush appeared on Alina’s face as she pondered how to handle the current situation.

And at this moment, as her thoughts raced, Princess Yuluxi in the adjacent chamber was also drawn by the earlier commotion.

She murmured in confusion, "Is something happening in Alina’s chambers?"

And so, Yuluxi slowly rose from her bed. The moonlight spilling through the window cascaded over her wheat-colored skin, making her look exceptionally beautiful.
