I Can Peek Inside Every Place And Even Record It

Chapter 149 Dark Elf

A majestic light emanated from the Edict, shaking the entire Elf City suddenly.

Every tree in the city seemed to resonate with the light, honoring it so much that it looked like they were bowing their heads towards the source of the light.

The Elf Queen was indeed like the soul of the entire Elven Race.

Even a little bit of her power earned her the honor of the entire city.

At this point, Abel and his followers could no longer act as they pleased.

When Arthur pointed the light of the Edict at them, they were like a bunch of paralyzed chickens, unable to move or speak.

“This young man is the Ice Prince.” People quickly deduced who Ciel was because only he had the Elf Queen’s Edict in such a form that he could carry it around and use it as he pleased.

The other Elves hesitated as they looked at Ciel, unsure of how to respond. They should have saluted him, but how was that possible? They were Elves, an honorable race, why should they salute a weak human?

However, this weak human had also gained the status that the Elf Queen had directly given him.

Challenging his status was probably the same as challenging the Elf Queen’s status.

“Y-you, if you dare to use your own power, I’ll fight with you.” Abel suddenly forced himself to speak while showing his aura that turned out to be a Hegemon.

However, Ciel was too lazy to respond. He pressed him with more force so that the Young Elf almost fell down.

He was the Elf Queen’s nephew. His status was extremely high, so seeing him being suppressed like that, the Elves couldn’t help but worry. Even so, they were also helpless as the Elf Queen’s aura could completely crush them.

“Stop that!” Suddenly a loud voice echoed from afar, seemingly very authoritative.

Ciel looked in the direction of the voice only to be startled by the figure of the Female Elf who suddenly appeared there.

She was a young woman who was probably the same age as Mu Yixue.

However, she seemed very different from the other Elves in this city.

Her hair was dark black in color, her skin was pale white, and she wore a long black dress that was tight yet closed so that even her neck was almost completely covered.

‘Is she a Dark Elf?’ Ciel wondered.

Dark Elves were a branch of the Elven Race, were extremely rare, and had a unique bloodline.

Unlike the normal Elves with the power of life, the Dark Elves had the power of destruction.

They are such natural fighters that one person of the Dark Elves can fight against ten humans.

As Ciel observed her with his Eyes Heaven, he suddenly realized that she also had a bloodline similar to the Elf Queen, like Abel, so perhaps she was also the Elf Queen’s niece.

Only, her Dark Elf bloodline was indeed much stronger.

Ciel guessed that one of her parents was a Dark Elf, and it just so happened that her Dark Elf bloodline was more dominating so she also became a Dark Elf.

Despite all that, her cultivation was quite amazing, the Eighth Stage Hegemon, looking like she had just broken through.

She flew quickly towards Ciel, but when she entered the light of the Edict, she still seemed to have trouble moving.

In the end, she stopped before arriving.

“What’s wrong, miss?” asked Ciel. 𝑶𝓥𝔩xt.𝗰𝑶𝑀

“Keep the Edict, I’ll take you to the palace,” she replied.

“Ohhhh…” Ciel did not expect that she would say that.

“Aren’t you going to get in my way?” he asked again.

“No, I came to welcome you as our Young King.”

“Thalia, what nonsense are you saying? You can’t take him to the palace.” Abel suddenly shouted, disapproving of the Dark Elf’s words.

Thalia looked at Abel, but looked like she was too lazy to say anything.

Ciel was getting more and more confused, in the end, he kept the Edict because he wanted to see Thalia’s actions.

When the Elf Queen’s aura disappeared, the people could finally heave a sigh of relief.

After that, Ciel ordered Pegasus to approach Thalia.

The woman turned around while signaling Ciel to follow her.

Unfortunately, even though she said she had come to greet him, Ciel felt she was not that friendly.

However, Ciel chose not to comment on that. He thought she might just be too proud, but still followed orders.

“By the way, where is the Queen?” asked Ciel as he followed her.

“Aunt left for a while to get something,” Thalia replied, using the word aunt for the Elf Queen which meant she was really her niece.

Knowing that the Elf Queen was not there, Ciel shook his head.

Of course, he still wasn’t worried because he wasn’t afraid of anyone here.

With Thalia in the lead, they quickly arrived in front of the largest tree.

There were many Elven warriors there, lined up neatly while keeping an eye on Ciel.

Among them, Ciel even saw some Demigods.

Here, there were more Demigods than in the Ice Palace.

That was of course because the Ice Palace’s disciples were limited.

In the entire Ice Continent, there were still many Demigods but could not be part of the Ice Palace, unlike in the Elf Race where all parties were part of the Elf Kingdom.

Thalia led Ciel to climb the stairs surrounding the tree.

And the stairs turned out to be quite magical. It had a formation that made one step while climbing the ladder into a thousand steps so that one could climb the ladder faster.

With such speed, it didn’t take long for Ciel to arrive at the top of the tree where the wooden palace was located.

Looking closely, Ciel that it was very luxurious. Every single piece of wood of the palace looked extremely solid, as if it overpowered steel and concrete.

Only, Ciel found no one there.

There wasn’t even a single soldier.

He felt strange, and at the same time, something suddenly happened.

Vines appeared from below, binding Pegasus’ body, making her unable to move instantly regardless of her strength.

“You?” Ciel stared at Thalia with wide eyes.

In the woman’s hand, a black sword suddenly appeared, which caused the space around the sword to crack.

In an instant, Ciel realized a conspiracy.

“What is the meaning of this?” he asked because Thalia did not attack immediately.

“The elders have made a decision. If you want your status recognized, defeat me. If you lose, you will not be recognized by us. Don’t worry, you can use any trick you can count on. Here, not a single eye is watching. Anyone who falls down will be considered defeated,” Thalia replied.

When Ciel’s finger moved slightly, Thalia suddenly added, “there’s no point in taking out the Edict here. This tree is also a powerful artifact and I can control it, enough to suppress the Decree’s power or any external help. You have to rely on your own strength or tricks that are purely yours.”

“So you guys really want to play games with me?” Ciel laughed when he heard everything Thalia said.

His casual reaction surprised the woman so much that she narrowed her slightly transparent black eyes.

“How about we up the bet?” asked Ciel suddenly.

“What kind of bet?” Thalia asked back.

“The loser will serve the winner, serve in an absolute way, like a slave,” Ciel replied.

“You?” Thalia seemed shocked by Ciel’s request so her sword moved down slightly.

What Ciel said seemed to instantly make her hesitate and fear.

“Hehehehe…” Ciel laughed as he saw her reaction.

“If you’re afraid, just admit defeat now. Tell those elders that you lost mentally, lost being intimidated by my challenge,” he said, deliberately provoking her.

He thought that even if this woman was so scared, she wouldn’t back down. She just doubted that the bet seemed to be very excessive.

In the end, she said, “what’s the point if I win the bet? I can gather a thousand slaves who are each stronger than you.”

“You should realize the difference. I can ask the Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen for anything, do you think a thousand slaves can do that? If you win and become my master, that means what I have will be yours. How about it, miss, are you interested?”

Ciel believed that everyone had greed and ambition. He was sure Thalia would definitely be interested in having what he had.

Thalia admitted it was very tempting, but she once again hesitated because of Ciel’s confidence.

Before starting a fight with that bet, she should at least be ready to become Ciel’s slave.

Of course, for a woman like her with a peak talent, beauty, and background, there was no way she was ready to be a slave.

However, giving up was also something she had a hard time accepting.

For a long time, Thalia was silent, putting the fight on hold.

She was unable to make up her mind at all.

At the same time, she finally realized that Ciel was not an easy man to fight.

Even if he was weak, he was extremely dangerous.

Although Thalia had previously considered Ciel unworthy of having everything he had, now she suddenly felt that Ciel seemed very impressive as a man, as if there was a hidden light behind his eyes that when emitted, could illuminate the entire world.
