Book 15: Chapter 31
I really wanted for the elves, humanity and the North to unite, although it didn’t align with the benefits of the North. According to Freya’s judgement, the North should watch from the sidelines, allowing humanity and elves to keep each other in check. That way, neither humanity nor the elves would try to target the North. The North had just been established. It would, therefore, be difficult to resist the elves or humanity if they tried anything.
I was very glad that the Empress of humanity and Queen of elves were my mothers. If I transmigrated here as an ordinary person without Elizabeth and Vyvyan’s backing, Rosvenor Empire and the elves’ militaries would probably already be knocking on the doors to the North in the scenario I captured it.
I assumed my two moms had gone back to their respective nations to plan out how to unite. Mommy Elizabeth certainly wanted to come back to the North. Mommy Vyvyan likely returned to begin discussions, as well.
I knew it wasn’t an easy decision to make for either side. Nonetheless, Elizabeth and Vyvyan were both exalted rulers of their respective nations. Normally speaking, if the two were genuinely willing to form an alliance, I would assume that they would be able to convince everyone to accept the idea. I thought I could be more reassured with the elves. As for humanity, I had no idea what their opinion was.
“Onii-sama, this is a letter from humanity.”
When I arrived at the office the next day, Freya passed me a letter. I noticed that her expression was slightly odd. Her expression looked tense. It was clear that she was resisting the urge to smile. The envelope didn’t have any traces of having been opened. The twin-headed eagle heat stamp of Rosvenor Empire was still intact. The text on the envelope was very simple. There was only the name of the sender and recipient. Letters between empires were sent by specifically assigned messengers.
This letter came from Mommy Elizabeth. I looked at Freya. She appeared to have already guessed the contents, but I didn’t know what it was about. There were countless possibilities. The best result would be a meeting between us and humanity’s empire to discuss the alliance.
I pondered, “It’s only been one week. If something that has troubled the continent for a decade could be resolved in one mere week, how could it have been delayed for so long? If the grudges between elves and humanity could be changed in such a short period of time, what would the point of the ten years of grudges have?”
I remarked, “Judging from your expression, I assume you’ve already figured out the contents of the letter.”
