Volume 5 Chapter 79: Chance
"Princess, you don't have to be so anxious." Faelyn tried her best to assure Alfia. However, the latter continued to pace back and forth in her room. Despite her words, that only did the opposite! Alfia turned to Faelyn,
"How can I not worry?! Father is coming here!" This was something she had never expected! Her father was none other than the king of the elves! Why would he come here?!
And said person was now talking to Iston and Licht! Her worries became even more so with this. Whatever he wanted to discuss with them, it could only mean danger!
..
In the office, Licht and Iston bowed in front of two people. One was sitting while the other stood by his side.
"Iston, Licht, the two of you have been doing well," Despite saying this, his voice was calm as ice as he stared down at the two.
"Your majesty, thank you for the praise. However, I only followed the path our ancestors carved for us." As he said this, Iston kept his head down. He didn't dare look up.
This island had always been owned by the royal family. It didn't matter who the person was. As long as royal blood flowed in them, they would become this island's owner.
"I see," Iston's father only said those two words. However, Iston's mind was in overdrive. I need to do it now.
"Father, I would like to request something."
"Iston!" Licht's expression changed. What was he planning?

"What are you requesting?"
"I want you to let me fight against the other races!" Iston looked up at his father with determination. It was now or never!
"Hmm?" Licht and the other elf's expressions changed. Fight against the other races? There had been scuffles going on between every race. However, there has never been one person who said they would go with a direct attack.
"Hmm?"
"I believe I have what it takes to become the next king!" Iston declared.
"Why do you believe so?"
"I have followed all of our ancestor's teachings! Our ancestors have shown us that we're the superior race. The only thing I need to do is to be given a chance."
"I don't give chances out to just anyone. How could you prove yourself of this chance?"
"I can gain the support of all the elves!" Iston's island had a majority of the elves. But not all of them stay there. There were some who didn't support him.
"If you can." When that was said, Licht quickly got up, "Father, we shouldn't be doing this!"
"Hmm?"
"Right now, there are so many different students here! We should work together rather than say we're a superior race!"
"Licht! How dare you say that! You're insulting our ancestors!" Iston glared at Licht. However, Licht ignored him and continued, "We shouldn't be thinking like our forefathers! We need to progress!"
There was no way they could do this. Letting Iston do everything he wanted was going to be dangerous. This was something he wasn't willing to let happen.
"..." Their father didn't say anything. However, he took a sigh, "I will leave you all to your own devices."
"!" "Understood, Father!" Licht's expression was dark, while Iston was the opposite! His words meant he would leave Iston to his own devices!
And there was nothing he could do either! Iston's force was much stronger than his! Not only that, he would ride that wave!
"You may leave now," The two bowed and left the room.
"Iston, there are limits," Licht had to warn him. Causing a fight with the other races was just asking for trouble.
"Dear brother, you don't have to be so afraid. We are the superior race." Iston smirked as he walked away. However, as he did,
"Call all the elves over in the next few days."
"Understood,"
"..." It's time. It was time to prove that the elves were the superior race to all!
