As a queen who has lost her kingdom, I can see the comments section.

[Amelia, how could you forget the person who took the blame for you? (laughs)]

Yuna appeared back in Falcon City.

That unreliable drunkard has reappeared, tsk tsk tsk.

Although Yuna is the leader of the elves, I guarantee that Yuna won't be in charge of the negotiations, because she's just too unreliable.

Seeing the numerous comments that appeared, Amelia suddenly realized what was happening.

Yes, she had seen Yuna before, back in Falcon City.

Back in that city, she and Eileen dealt with a local slave owner and reclaimed a lot of things. The Bard's Bow Heart Diagram and the alchemical weapon "Silver Moon" that she uses now were both obtained back then, and she hasn't replaced them since.

But has Yuna ever taken the blame for her?

Amelia blinked, genuinely unaware of the matter.

Because she and Eileen had left Falcon City early on, they were unaware of what had happened there afterward.

However, the audience knew about this because the scene shifted to Yuna, allowing them to witness her taking the blame. She was unaware of it, likely because she was asleep and didn't notice.

"I'll go and make contact with these elves next," Amelia had already decided.

==========

In another room of the Galaxy Cradle Inn, several elves were staying.

Yuna, with her long, emerald-green hair and eyes, wore a cool green dress that had an artistic flair.

She sat by the open window, completely oblivious to the cold wind.

"The thermal clothing from the Alchemy Empire is really nice."

Yuna sighed, still holding a bottle of wine in her hand, and gulped it down, her cheeks turning rosy and her eyes becoming somewhat hazy.

"Lady Yuna, please stop drinking. Don't forget that you are our leader. Are you going to leave all the negotiations with others to me?" another elf said with dissatisfaction.

The elf was a woman, petite in stature, dressed lightly, with long, pale blue hair dancing in the wind, and her green eyes filled with helplessness.

Yuna chuckled upon hearing this: "Edith, I trust you with your work, so I'll leave it to you."

Seeing Yuna's irresponsible behavior, Edith was speechless. She couldn't understand why the royal court would let Yuna do things if she was so unreliable. Couldn't they have found a different leader?

After grumbling to herself, Edith couldn't help but sigh softly.

Upon closer examination, it's indeed inconvenient for the royal court to change its Pokémon, as the royal court is also facing many troubles and currently lacks Pokémon with sufficient abilities.

Since Yuna can't be relied on, then we have to rely on ourselves and our other companions!

Edith thought to herself and then looked at the other elves in the room, only to find that all of them were looking at her.

"Edith, please."

The elves' eyes were filled with anticipation.

Edith: "..."

The elves are not good at negotiation, so when they encounter problems, they hope that other elves can step forward. Among their group of elves, it seems that only Edith can step forward.

Just as Edith was feeling helpless, a knock came at the door.

Upon hearing the sound, Edith knew that the people from Star River Territory must have come again, and immediately said seriously, "Go open the door."

The elf closest to the door immediately went to open it.

As the door opened, three girls appeared outside. Ruth, the Star River Lord they had met before, was on the left. The other two were people they were seeing for the first time.

The elves couldn't help but look at the other two people closely.

The girl in the middle wore a snow-white dress, which made her already fair skin appear even whiter. She had long, slightly wavy, light golden hair, but her face was covered by a half-mask, obscuring the upper half of her face. Only a pair of light blue eyes could be seen, but even with only the lower half of her face visible, one could subconsciously feel that she was a very beautiful woman.

Chapter 163 The Elves' Predicament, The Gods Have a Problem

The person on the right is dressed in a black and white maid outfit, has long silver hair, and also wears a half-mask on her face, so only her red eyes can be seen.

This person also gives the subconscious impression of a beautiful young woman, and in addition, she exudes a cold and aloof aura, making her seem like someone who is not easy to talk to.

Edith's gaze swept over the three of them, and a sense of doubt arose in her heart.

Why can't Ruth, the lord of Star River Territory, occupy the main position among the three?

Who exactly is that girl in the middle?

Edith was filled with curiosity, and her gaze returned to the girl in the middle.

"Excuse me, fellow elves. My name is Lily, and it's a pleasure to meet you all," Amelia said with a smile.

lily?

Hearing that it was clearly a code name, Edith said with dissatisfaction, "Why can't you reveal your real name?"

“This is the rule of our organization.” Amelia walked in unhurriedly and continued, “We members of the Silent Throne often use code names, and I am Lily.”

The Silent Throne?

Edith thought for a moment, but couldn't find any information.

"The Silent Throne... Could it be that the lord of the Star River Territory has chosen to live under someone else's roof?" Edith glanced at Ruth.

"It's not really about being dependent on others," Ruth said with a smile. "Everyone understands the current situation in the Chaotic Realm. Under these circumstances, it's not a problem for Star River Territory to choose to join an Apostle organization, is it?"

"Then why did you choose the Silent Throne? The Kingdom of Bagus tried to recruit Star River Territory before, didn't it? The power of a kingdom is not something an organization can compare to," Edith asked.

She was clearly aware of the situation Star River Territory had faced in the past.

“Miss Edith, no matter what, I was once a nobleman of the Kingdom of Steel. Even if I need to find a new patron now, I will not choose to invade the Kingdom of Steel’s power,” Ruth said solemnly.

"Ok."

Edith didn't ask any more questions.

This matter has nothing to do with her; she was just asking out of curiosity.

As for the Silent Throne organization... she had never heard of the Silent Throne, but there are quite a few Apostle organizations in this world, and it's impossible for her to have heard of all of them, so it's normal that she didn't know them.

One thing is certain: the organization that managed to recruit Ruth must possess extraordinary abilities.

Edith's gaze returned to Amelia: "So it seems you're actually in charge among you? Then let's discuss the grain trade."

“Miss Edith, I understand why you’ve come.” Amelia smiled slightly. “Since the beginning of this winter, the situation in the Elf Forest has been very bad, hasn’t it? The terrible winter will last for a very long time in the Elf Forest. Spring comes in March in other places, but spring in the Elf Forest will probably last for a very long time, perhaps even a year.”

"You seem to know quite a lot." Edith frowned slightly, feeling that Amelia's information network was too extensive.

In the Elf Forest, the seasons are the same as outside in previous years, with spring arriving in March. However, this year, some unexpected events have caused the winter to be greatly prolonged, and it is unknown when it will recover, which has brought a lot of trouble to the elves.

However, the elves did not spread this matter outside. Edith was somewhat surprised that Amelia knew about it, and she held the Silent Throne organization in even higher regard.

“Under these circumstances, it’s clear that the elves are in great need of food… well, it’s probably not just food, but also other supplies, which they must be quite lacking, right?” Amelia said with a smile.

“Name your price,” Edith said, frowning.

Before arriving in Star River Territory, the elves had already traded supplies with many people. Although those people were unaware of the dire situation facing the Elf Forest, they could still tell that the elves were in dire need of supplies, so there had been quite a few instances of them raising prices on the spot.

'What greedy humans!'

Edith scoffed inwardly.

In her view, Amelia's mention of the Elf Forest's predicament was just an attempt to raise prices.

Seeing Edith's unhappy expression, Amelia easily understood what Edith was thinking and couldn't help but smile.

“Miss Edith, you may have some misunderstanding about me. I don’t need any Kerr.”

"Don't want Kerr? Do you want Sel, Thor, or Ronti?"

Edith frowned and asked.

Sel is the currency of the Saiya Empire.

The Sol was the currency of the Sainssol Empire.

Langti was the currency of the Water Langti Empire.

Amelia shook her head again: "I don't need money."

"Then what do you want?"

"I need the elf to do me a favor."

"Help? What kind of help?"

Edith understood somewhat.

In past transactions with others, not everyone had a need for money; some people also had needs for other things.

Amelia said slowly, "Miss Edith, you understand the situation Star River Territory is facing now, right? We are facing the threat of the Kingdom of Bagus, so as long as the elves can ensure that Star River Territory is not attacked by the Kingdom of Bagus, or even the Kingdom of Akti and the Kingdom of Beren, then providing the elves with supplies will naturally not be a problem."

Upon learning of the elves' arrival, Amelia decided to ask them for help in resolving the issue, as it would indeed be difficult for Star River Territory to deal with the Kingdom of Bagus on its own.

“You actually want us to deal with the Kingdom of Bagus? We can’t do that.” Edie refused without hesitation.

“You can do it. You are elves, and even the Kingdom of Bagus has to give elves face.”

"This is not something we elves can do. Even the strongest among us is only a mid-level apostle."

“But you can contact the other elves. I believe there should be many more powerful elves in the Chaotic Realm, right? I remember the elves split into different teams and went to different places to collect supplies. You are just one of the teams.”

"That's true, but we still won't get involved in things that involve war. Miss Lily, why don't you just name a price? Once you have enough money, you can use it to deal with the trouble."

Edith remained refusing.

Amelia sighed and said, "What's the use of having a lot of money if you don't live to enjoy it? If the elves want to obtain material support from the Star River Territory, there is only one option: help us solve the troubles caused by the three kingdoms, not just the Kingdom of Bagus. If you can't do that, we won't provide those supplies."

“This is not a smart choice,” Edith scoffed. “Even if you refuse to hand over the supplies, once the Kingdom of Bagus conquers Star River Territory, the supplies here will fall into the hands of the Kingdom of Bagus, and then we can trade with them.”

“That won’t do. If we’re really sure we can’t defeat the army of the Kingdom of Bagus, we’ll poison the food. You should know that Star River Territory is quite skilled at using poison,” Amelia said with a smile.

"you……"

Edith's chest heaved slightly.

If the people of Star River Territory really choose to poison them, then all the resources in Star River Territory will be gone, which is a difficult thing for elves who lack resources to endure.

Their numerous elves dispersed into various teams, and in the chaotic realm, the other kingdoms and duchies began purchasing supplies, but even such a large-scale purchase of houses was still not enough.

The troubles the elves are facing are truly enormous; they need far more resources, and not a single resource can be missed.
