Chapter 87 Obsessive Queen

"Delicious! What's this?" Eating something that looked like an apple, Nikol happily questioned Zenda who was guiding them throughout the elf kingdom.

Lydia, Alva, Emily and Nym also followed them as they were also invited but other girls were just divided into groups and other commanders of the elven army promised to teach them about the kingdom.

"Nikol is it-" Alva tried to say something but Nikol quickly disturbed her.

"It is tasty, you guys have wonderful food," Zenda took it as a compliment and proceeded to show them other places with quite a satisfied face.

"What's with these elves? They only eat raw fruits, they don't even have meats," Alva again complained but this time only Nikol and Lydia heard her since Zenda was a little far away from them.

"How do I know? Let's just pretend their food is great," Whispering to dissatisfied Alva, they kept exploring the kingdom.

Except for food, everything else in the elven kingdom was fascinating for them. Their architecture which looked totally different from humans was a sight to behold.

Nikol and his girls had no idea how they build everything to look so beautiful and elegant. All the roads were clean and the air inside this space was so fresh that they could even smell the leaves and flowers everywhere in the city.

"Zenda, how many elves are there in this kingdom?" Curious about their numbers, Nikol questioned.

He wanted to get a vague idea about his future partners. But from what he noticed by walking around the city, there weren't many of them.

"We haven't exactly counted them but if I had to guess, I would say around 2000 to 2500,"

According to her answer, it wasn't anything jaw-dropping since Kano and Ron tribes joined together and had more than 10,000 humans but he knew these numbers were totally different since levels and humans were different.

(A/N: This isn't the total number of humans in this world)

Zenda kept showing them different places and landmarks which looked more and more beautiful until they reached a certain place which looked even more spectacular.

"This is our kingdom's greatest place as well as greatest defence," Zenda pointed at the huge wall that was built up with huge trees. It was even taller than a normal coconut tree and wide.

"Indeed! This is like a miracle," Lydia still couldn't help but be surprised by this because of how absurd it is.

"It certainly is a gift from the goddess, no living being can create a majestic wall like this,"

Nikol felt strange because this goddess they were talking about was his so-called mother. It was a rather strange but pleasant feeling to find that she cared about these natives before she abandoned them. He at least felt some kind of appreciation for that.

"This wall is considered a symbol of our faith, and it really is incredible how amazing and big it is," She almost had fanatic eyes looking at it.

While they were improving their friendship with each other outside the castle, Tisha was up to no good as she was kneeling beside the throne where Nikol sat.

She had the same eyes as Zenda when she looked at the wall but Tisha's intensity was rather great than others which almost reached obsession or is it craziness?

"Hehe~ I knew it! I knew it!" She mumbled to herself as nobody was in the throne chamber.

"She really sent her own son," Tisha looked at the throne for a minute like she was dazed. If Nikol was in this room he would have gotten chills from this but suddenly.

*Sniff *Sniff

She started to sniff the throne as it was a beautiful blooming flower. After Nikol sat on it she made sure not to let it go to waste as she carefully kept it untouched. She didn't even let her servants clean it as most of them are not even allowed to get close to it.

"Her scent! This is her scent! His agent and my goddess!"

Her sniffing increased as it almost sounded like she opened a vacuum pump at some point. It would have been acceptable if this is the extent she decided to go but suddenly she started to lick the seat of the throne where Nikol sat.

Lucky for her this was the elven kingdom where dust was almost non-existent and the air was clean as pure water.

"His taste!" Suddenly she realised what she did as regret started to fill her heart but it wasn't because of her weird activities. She regretted doing this because now she dirtied her throne with her saliva so she had no way to sniff Nikol's smell.

"What have I done?" She used her magic to clean the throne but no matter how she tried, she couldn't find satisfaction in it.

"I should beg him to sit on me next time," She thought while going back to her bed with a sad look.

There was a huge reason for her behaviour to be like this when it comes to Nikol but neither Nikol nor she knew what it is right now. She couldn't explain how satisfied she felt after knowing that he is the person she wanted to meet the most.

In her mind, there was no difference between the goddess and her son as she identified both of them as the same individual.

Unless Zenda prevented her from going overboard, she would have already jumped on Nikol and done questionable things to him but her chains or restraints called Zenda kept her tied without letting it happen.

On her way to the bedroom, Tisha suddenly felt a huge uncomfortable feeling like the whole forest was trying to tell her something.

"What's this feeling?" Her guts kept warning her about something but it wasn't clear to her until she felt a huge explosion on the outer wall of the kingdom.

"Noooooo! Don't harm our trees," Feeling the destruction, she shouted as she quickly jumped from the window without even caring about the height but surprisingly a branch from a nearby tree caught her like it was caring for her like a mother.

"Thank you!" She looked at it with grateful eyes before going to meet with Zenda and others. She was mainly worried about her people but this time it wasn't them, as the first thing that came to her mind when she heard about the attack was Nikol.

"No! I won't let anyone harm our son, I won't," Even she didn't know why she addressed him with motherly love but for some reason, she felt like doing it.

***

A few minutes before the attack, Zenda kept explaining different things to Lydia and Nikol while Alva listened to them with interest.

They didn't even feel an incoming attack until the explosion happened with a huge sound causing everyone around the area to close their ears from the shock.

"What happened?" Shocked about this incident Zenda quickly went to look at the source of this sound. She climbed the trees rather easily like a monkey but then only Nikol and the girls realised it was making branches for her to step on.

It was like these plants were alive and conscious as they showed live movements.

Zenda didn't even take a few seconds to get onto the top of the trees which was a flat surface as all the trees were the same height and joined with each other forming a flat surface just like her chest.

"What the hell is this?" Her jaw dropped in surprise and confusion as she looked outside

"No way! So they really had-" She couldn't even finish her words as the second explosion came with another huge sound.

"Dark elves!" She shouted to let others know what this was. Normally no one will be able to hear her from the top of the wall but for some reason, her voice was amplified and even Tisha who was on her way to meet her heard this message.

*Tsk

"So they came here!" Alva felt her hatred flaring up inside her body.

"How many dark elves are there?" Lydia didn't panic as she started to think of a way to defeat them.

They had Nym and this wall which looked like it can withstand even an explosion like the previous one so Lydia wasn't worried but after hearing Zenda's words, she felt her judgment was fully wrong.

"At least 100 dark elves with many monsters! They have flying monsters too, be careful of aerial attacks," Screaming in her same loud voice, she quickly got down as she wanted to regroup with her troops.

"Nikol you should go back, things are about to get dangerous," Zenda didn't want anything happening to him as he was equally important to her as their queen right now.

"Don't be stupid! I can fight, I can actually fight you don't even have to protect me," He felt dissatisfied to be underestimated this much but still he could understand her viewpoint.

"Lydia!" Zenda looked at her like she was requesting but even she was hesitant to do it since she knew Nikol was equally strong as Usha and Eva, after his traning and seeing his previous help she couldn't even deny that without him they would have even suffered great damages.

*Sigh

"You guys are equally stubborn, reminds me of Tisha," She remembered her one and only friend as well as master.

"I hope she won't come here," She couldn't even finish those words as she heard a familiar voice shouting at them from far away.

"Zenda! Son!"
