Beneath the Red Dragon

These Zor elves might fall into The Sea at any moment, yet not a single Zor Elf showed a look of concern.

And the male elf standing next to the Dark Mother Shalos also caught Karon’s attention.

With long white hair tied behind his head, his pale skin couldn’t reveal the origins of this elf, but his aura indicated that he was a Zor Elf from the Dark Realm, carrying the unique scent of creatures from the Dark Realm.

"I think, perhaps I can guess some of Lord Gogomola’s thoughts," the male elf, with distinct facial features and a strong profile, spoke softly.

The magnetic and mellow voice made the other’s character seem very composed, "Perhaps Lord Gogomola’s joy in fishing doesn’t lie in the catch, but in a kind of unknown anticipation, just like the unknown anticipation many mortal beings hold for tomorrow and a bright future."

Karon shifted his gaze to this rare white-haired elf.

Most Zor Elves have dark skin, shorter than their kin on the surface, yet this male elf’s height was nearly comparable to Karon’s current Dragon Descendant form.

Karon was an exceptionally rare Ancestral Dragon in the Material World, and even without intentionally unleashing Dragon Power, his gaze carried the high-positioned pressure from bloodline apex, especially when facing other mortal creatures.

Moreover, as the Emperor of the Golden Empire, Karon had long been accustomed to the aura of power and authority.

Unless intentionally restrained, even in everyday movements, he exuded the imposing grandeur of a superior, filled with oppressive force, making others dare not meet his gaze.

However, this male elf was not affected by this simple aura, as if he held tumultuous waves in his chest yet remained as calm as still water.

"Who is this?" Karon nodded slightly, agreeing with the male elf’s perspective. In the mortal world, Karon rarely needed to hide his thoughts.

"Please forgive my rudeness, Lord Gogomola," the male elf said, placing a hand over his chest and bowing slightly, "It is said that the strength of the Dragon Emperor of the Golden Empire is unparalleled in the mortal world, and his appearance is the most noble and elegant among Dragons, which aroused my curiosity, leading me to forget to introduce myself."

"My name is Anudale, from the Zor of the Dark Realm. Perhaps it is difficult to express in front of the Emperor of the Golden Empire and Dragon King, but the Zor call me—the King of Elves!"

The two Dragon Descendants before him, one an Ancestral Red Dragon, and the other, though not explicitly identified, could be judged by their strength in the eyes of these legendary beings.

However, even with Karon’s composure, his heart couldn’t help but ripple slightly.

Because Zor Elves are a thoroughly matriarchal clan.

In Zor civilization, all elves in power must and inevitably be female, while male elves in Zor society play roles closer to that of slaves.

The doctrine of female superiority and male inferiority is ingrained in Zor Elves, more so as decreed by the Divine Spirit they worship—Alorith, the Ancient Elf God.

The only way for male Zor Elves to gain power is by learning Witchcraft.

Even those who have joined the Zor Legions, experienced countless battles, and earned rich experience and military merits may be killed for inadvertently disgracing the female priestesses of Alorith, the Zor Main God.

The skin on their bodies would also be peeled off by these Zor priestesses to be displayed as collectibles in their chambers or to serve as carpets, cushions, and lampshades.

Only male Zor elves who master witchcraft and casting power are slightly valued by those priestesses, but it only means these male Zor wizards are more valuable, rarer, and more useful than simple warriors.

Even the most gifted male wizard in Zor history cannot compare in status to the lowest-ranked female priest.

This is a civilization where males are destined to be enslaved by females.

Yet the male Zor Anudale in front of him, claiming to be the King of Elves? This fact is as unbelievable as the current Gogomola Dragon Group’s comparison with other Giant Dragons, if not more difficult to fathom.

Even as a male Zor, Karon found it hard to imagine what means he would use to achieve a goal like Anudale’s, becoming a Heroic King of Zor Elves.

Perhaps that is why this Elf Hero King could become legendary, and Karon couldn’t help but be intensely curious about this male elf’s past stories.

Karon nodded slightly, showing respect to this Zor Hero King, and asked, "Then, what is the purpose of the visit of the two kings?"
