"What did you say?" Enna asked coldly. Legacy Stone was a big obelisk made from unknown material. It stored history, techniques and other important information. It only allows access to knowledge connected to bloodlines. Only Hydra can access hydra legacy, centaur will access centaur legacy and so on. Threatening to destroy it, is a grave offense. The same goes for the World Tree.

"I said what I said. You send people to kidnap me, so don't try to act." Jax said, but he saw that Enna had a puzzled look on her face.

"I sent someone?" She asked confused. Jax was shocked.' So she didn't send anyone!'

"Yeah, we captured Fenn from wolf clan, he said that the council gave him an order to capture me." Jax couldn't believe it. He could understand if that was an order from one land, but if the entire council agreed, she should know it.' Unless she doesn't care, and is a muscle head'

"Oh, so that's why I didn't hear about him. Well, I didn't send him." Enna stated.

"It's very bad to send assassins, Enna" said Elora.

"I didn't do that!" Enna defended herself. Jax started to massage his nose bridge. 'We have a muscle head, and innocent one. I hope council and republic members will have something in their heads.' He looked at Elizabeth and Malcolm. They were also disappointed, but three of them knew it was an opportunity to create a good impression.

"So we finished, our presentation. Would you like to have a tour around our countries?" Jax smiled and asked.

"Sure, it will be fun," Elora replied excitedly. Enna wasn't as excited as Elora. Jax saw this and added.

"If you agree, I will ask Malcolm to fight with you. Of course, without injuring each other." Jax proposed. Enna was happy and nodded. Malcolm, on the other hand, wanted to kill Jax. 'It's your punishment for shaking me'

"Yeah, I will gladly go." Enna replied.

...

"It's amazing, it's so much fun!" Yelled Elora. She was riding a snowboard that Jax gave her. They were in the Frozen Mountains and having fun. Jax took her there to check if she could sense the factory, but she didn't. 'So for a race so connected to nature, they can't feel it. It's a good sign, technology of that place is a jackpot.

"I'm happy you have fun, btw it must be boring leading a country?" Jax asked. Elora made a sour face.

"You don't even know how boring it is. My lady that, my lady this. I didn't want that role." She sighed.

"How was it to be chosen by the World Tree? Do you have any blessings in your status?" He asked. Elves keep specific information about the World Tree, and it's chosen as a secret.

"I shouldn't say tell you, it's supposed to be a secret." She shook her head. Jax was prepared for it.

"I have blessing myself, you know? The God of Wisdom bestowed it on me. It allows me to absorb the entire content of the book I'm touching. Other than that, it gives me better memory and other very important stuff" Jax explained it. In average people's eyes, it was giving his trump cards, but every high level person knows what the Herodot blessing does. Also, he never mentioned remaining blessings. "I trusted you with that, you can do the same with me." Elora was conflicted, and Jax used it.

"I swear on Herodot name, I will not tell anyone your secrets." Elora was taken back. 'Why did he do that'? "Now I can't tell anyone what you will tell me." He smiled at her.

"Well, the World Tree blessing gives me great affinity for nature. I can feel what is happening around me, and I can communicate with trees, animals ..." She started to explain it. In a nutshell, she is one with nature, and has command over land and life, but she can't control someone at the same intellectual level as her or higher. 'This information is precious, good news for me that it can't affect people.' Jax talked more with Elora about Elven Republic, and World Tree.' So it's the same everywhere, people who are elected become corrupted over time.' He sighed. Elora didn't say it, but instead she talked about rumours that circled in the republic. 'If they are rumours, then there must be some truth in it, even if not, people who spread it are guilty'

"Does World Tree speak with you?" Jax asked.

"It's not exactly speaking, but sometimes it appears in my dreams, or lead me in some way." Elora replied, while avoiding obstacles.

"And how exactly choosing of new president works?"

"I just felt I need to go to world tree and when I touched it, I just felt connection. Protector of World Tree, can tell if someone has the blessing and connection." Elora answered the question. After that, they went to Jax pocket house. Elora went to wash herself. Jax meanwhile was making food for them. 'Why do you like making food?' Jax heard Shiro voice. He smiled at that question. 'It's relaxing, also when you do things like that, ideas will very often come to you.' He answered and heard the sound of footsteps. Elora walk out of the shower in pyjamas, Jax gave her, that had the theme of some cat like creature. She sniffed the air.

"What are you making?" She asked, and sat down on at the table.

"Well I know you don't eat meat, so I make you some salad and pasta" He gave it to her. She was very curious about that new food, and started to eat. Few moments later the plate was empty and she wanted more.

"Did you like it? He asked. To which she nodded with the face dirty from the sauce.

"Yeah, it's very good. It's a shame we don't have something like this at home." She made a sad face.' She is like a puppy. Elora isn't fit to be president, maybe some ambassador. Elora is just too innocent'

"Well, maybe in the future, you will be able to taste it at your place. I want to create agreement with Elven Republic and create alliance to keep peace." Jax really meant it. War is good for him because of the increased number of slaves, but everything else is sparse. He doesn't like unnecessary killing. "In that I need your help. I am not an elf, so your people will not listen to me. What do you say about it?" He smiled at her. Fortunately for him, she liked the idea.

"I will gladly help you with that" Elora answered while eating more food, Jax made.

...

Few days later, Elora and Enna went back to their countries, and Jax was in Elizabeth office.

"So you convinced her to help you to create some relationship with Elven Republic? I must say I'm impressed, well it's expected from someone who will be my husband." She replied with proud.

"Aren't you bragging too much?" He asked.

"Didn't you tell me that in your old world, men bragged about how beautiful or how good a cook their wives are? I want other people to be jealous." Her answer defeated Jax.

"Touché" He smiled at her, and gave her a letter. She was surprised why he can't just say it, but when she started to read, she understood.

"Complete knowledge about World Tree blessing, political situation in Elven Republic and so much more. It's one of the most important documents."

"Well, it was quite easy to get it, I just needed to swear on Herodot name." Jax said. Elizabeth was sceptical.

"You should then have some punishment." If he swore on the name of his patron, and broke the vow, he should be crippled in some way.

"Well, there was a small detail. I swore to not Tell, I didn't swear to not Write it. I still respect the vow." Jax replied, and was enjoying a look at Elizabeth face that this time, it was him over her.

"You should be called Jax the Fox." She replied, but was pleased with his work." I know you don't work for free. So what you want for this?"

"You hurt my fragile heart. Why would you think that your future husband wants something from you?" He pretended to be deeply hurt.

"You have a fragile heart? And I'm a queen of Dragon Kingdom. So tell me what you want." She replied without falling for his act.

"Well nothing much. You just need to accompany me to visit my parents to announce our engagement." Elizabeth dropped her tea.

"No way, I will not go there!" Elizabeth replied.
