Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 155 His Majesty the Emperor
"Alyssa is still the most likable, unlike her owner."

Alyssa took the initiative to come over to comfort her. Eleanor was still very happy. She reached out and touched a scale on its huge dragon head... Eleanor also imitated Evelyn and pretended to mutter in a low voice.

"Okay, stop talking, the other side can already see us."

Just as Eleanor was touching Elisa's dragon head and muttering, even though their group was fighting on the road, the horses did not stop, and before they knew it, they had walked into the sight of the welcoming team.

Although there was still some distance between them, those present were not weak. With their eyesight, they could clearly see the old emperor's profound gaze and the expectant eyes of the high-ranking officials and nobles of the imperial city, including the Duke and Duchess Bruno.

"Eli is back, and he brought a lot of people with him."

"Now we have to call him Saint Eli. He is no longer the junior he used to be."

"Who are the people around him? Why are there children?"

"Such a young child, has also returned from the battlefield?"

Fortunately, Eleanor is only at level seven at the moment, and her hearing is not yet able to reach what her eyes can see. Otherwise, just the mutterings of some noble officials in the distance would be enough to make her furious again.

As Eli and his group got closer, the discussions in the opposite crowd stopped. After all, it was the emperor's turn to appear, and they didn't dare to make a noise at this time and ruin the emperor's dignity.

At this time, the sensible Eli immediately told the beautiful girls to dismount. As for the deputy general Rondo and the guard members behind him, they had already dismounted and walked without his instructions.

Even though he had returned after making great achievements, Eli knew that he could not ride a horse to accept the greeting of the standing emperor. Looking down at the monarch was extremely disrespectful. Although Eli was reckless, he was not so ignorant of these rules. Besides, he was his father-in-law, so he had to show some respect to him.

"Our great hero is back, Eli, come here, uncle hasn't seen you for a long time..."

When Eli led his team over, the Emperor of the Dawn Empire, who was standing at the front of the crowd, waved at him with a smile and enthusiastically called him over. If you didn't know, you would think they had a close relationship.

In fact, it was good enough that His Majesty the Emperor recognized him as the son of the Duke. In the huge imperial capital, there were countless noble children from various families. Although the Bruno family had a high status, it was not ranked too high in the forefront in the imperial capital where kings and princes were everywhere.

In other words, he has been too invincible on the battlefield in the past six months. With his amazing strength and terrifying potential, the Emperor, the ruler of the empire, has to pay attention to him.

The Dawn Empire has a long history and profound heritage. Since its founding, it has gone through thousands of years, including the anti-demon war. There has never been a young genius as astonishing as Eli. Even the ancestor who has already ascended to the Temple of the Gods did not possess such strength at his age.

Although His Majesty the Emperor has always lived in the imperial capital and has never witnessed Eli's heroic performance on the battlefield, ever since he broke out of the war zone and swept across the demon clan, he has paid special attention to and carefully reviewed every battle report about him.

Every time a battle report related to Eli came in, it was a surprise to His Majesty the Emperor. Ever since the death of the Goddess of Life and the rise of the Elf Empire, the title of the Dawn Empire, the first empire on the continent, seemed a little bit untrue. In the eyes of the countries on the continent, even the Sea Kingdom, the Elf Empire, with all its members going crazy, already had the actual combat power to compete for the continent.

Although due to factors such as population, economy, culture, education, infrastructure, etc., no matter how powerful the Elf Empire is, it is impossible to compete with the Dawn Empire, but the mad elves are really scary, and it would be an insult to them to be able to defeat ten elves alone in a real fight.

In fact, as the most important ally of the Elf Empire, the Emperor of the Dawn Empire does not want to compete with the Elf Empire. After all, they have a common mortal enemy - the demons. But his unwillingness to compete does not mean that the entire Dawn Empire does not want to compete.

The human race is a strange race, very united when united, but very stupid when sick. The strengthening of the Elf Empire is a very good thing for the anti-demon cause, and everyone agrees on this.

But after the Elf Empire became stronger, the elves threatened the status of the human race as the first race on the continent. The Elf Empire might ascend to the throne of the first empire. Sorry, some people will jump out and make trouble.

Although in the state of war against demons across the world, those who want to cause trouble cannot fight the Elf Empire with real weapons, but they can use methods that humans are very familiar with, such as stirring up trouble, diplomatic conflicts, and fabricating rumors.

If the emperor, as the ruler of the empire, had not been unwilling to participate, and even secretly punished these people, the relationship between the Dawn Empire and the Elf Empire would never have been maintained normally.

During the elves' violent period in the previous life, the Dawn Empire, as representatives of the human race, and the Elf Empire almost had a falling out. Fortunately, the emperor and most of the high-ranking officials of the empire were sober, and they did not go crazy just because of a small number of idiots.

But it is not so easy to suppress these crazy people. After all, there are so many of them. Even if there is only one idiot among a hundred people, the population of the Dawn Empire is more than 10 billion...

In the previous life, the Dawn Empire was able to wait peacefully until the elves returned to normal and the idiots stopped their movements because they no longer saw the threat. Of course, even Eli didn't know about these situations. After all, he was just an incompetent little general in the previous life and had no access to these secrets.

In this life, after the elves entered the berserk mode, idiots showed up soon after. Fortunately, just when they had just become somewhat powerful, the human prodigy Eli Bruno appeared out of nowhere.

A 20-year-old genius saint...

The invincible ruler of the battlefield...

The demon nemesis who kills demon kings as easily as slaughtering chickens and dogs...

Look at this person. Compared with the elves who rose up only after relying on the blessing of the main god when he fell, it is true that our human race is stronger and more beloved by the gods.

Because of Eli's sudden appearance, the crazy people who firmly believe in the supremacy of the human race now have someone to flatter. How can they have the mood to quarrel with the elves? They should seize the opportunity to brag as much as possible... No, they should present facts and reason to describe the glorious deeds of the genius of our human race.

So what if you elves can't kill him? Look at my brother Eli, is there any demon who can get close to him alive?

So what if your elves have made a lot of military achievements? Look at my brother Yi Lai, he has killed more demons than your 100,000 elves! So what if your elves have a peerless genius, who has killed several demon war zones and was named the Elf Princess? Look at my brother Yi Lai, he is at the same level as your Elf Princess, and his military achievements are even more exaggerated. He is 20 years old this year, how old is your Elf Princess? Oh, two hundred and sixty...

It has to be said that the historical development when there are human geniuses dominating a generation and when there are no human geniuses suppressing the elves is very different. At least in this life, with the emergence of Eli, the relationship between the Dawn Empire and the Elf Empire has never been rigid, and the two countries have cooperated very smoothly in various fields.

Because of Eli, His Majesty the Emperor was able to suppress the source of unrest within the empire, cooperate seamlessly with the Elf Empire, and achieve brilliant results on all major battlefields.

Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor had a very good impression of Eli, even to the point of being willing to marry his most beloved only daughter to him. Of course, with Eli's current strength and the status he would be given in the future, it would not be a disgrace to her to marry him with Lina.

I heard that when Eli was in the Duke's Mansion, he had two close female bodyguards, and they were said to be a bit lustful. But it doesn't matter much. With Lina's appearance, the more lustful Eli is, the more he can't live without her. I think it won't be a problem for him to get Eli's exclusive favor.

As for the two female personal guards, at most they could be taken as concubines. Given their backgrounds, they posed no threat to Lina's family status.

"Long time no see, Eli, you've grown up."

As Eli came over, the Emperor stopped his wandering thoughts. He patted Eli on the shoulder and said with emotion.

"Your Majesty, Eli is fortunate to have lived up to your expectations and finally returned alive."

To be honest, no matter which life Eli was in, he was not familiar with the emperor in front of him. Faced with the enthusiasm of the old emperor and his new father-in-law, he could only choose to have an awkward chat.

"You have lived up to my expectations. I know everything you did on the battlefield. Come back to the city with me. I have already prepared a banquet in the palace to welcome you."

The old emperor really attaches great importance to Eli today. Not only does he call himself uncle, he also takes his hand affectionately and wants to take him back to the city "personally".

This intersection is five kilometers away from the imperial capital. It is a great honor for His Majesty the Emperor to personally go out of the city ten miles to greet him. How could Eli allow him to hold his hand and walk such a long way?

Of course, Eli definitely didn't dislike the old emperor's old and rough hands, he was just more humble. No matter how great his contributions were, it was not appropriate to hold hands with the honorable emperor. It was a bit like arrogance. It would be better to take a step back and just hold hands with the less honorable princess.

Eli has always been a decisive person. If he thought so, he would certainly do it. Therefore, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Eli unnoticedly broke away from the old emperor's control and took the hand of a girl with her face covered by a hood behind him.

"This……"

"How can this be possible..."

The high-ranking officials and nobles who saw this scene were stunned at first, and then someone could not help but exclaimed in a low voice. If they had not been concerned about the emperor's face, they would have started talking at this moment.

As the emperor of the Dawn Empire, a noble being under the gods and above billions of people, the old emperor should have been angry at Eli's rude and even disrespectful behavior, but looking at the hooded girl he was holding, the old emperor could not get angry at all.

Lina is his most beloved daughter. Not to mention a hood covering her face, even if she turned into ashes... bah, even if she changed into a different race, he would be able to recognize her. Originally, with Eli, a meritorious minister, around, the old emperor couldn't care about his daughter first. After all, when it comes to serious matters, he still has to put the country first.

But since the first target of attention and the first target of concern are both hooked up, then there is no question of who is more important. These two should be considered as your own children, right?
"Ahem... Eli, Lina, no matter how close you two are, you still have to be careful outside. Considering your young age, your father will let it go this time, but he won't allow it next time."

Also under the watchful eyes of the public, the Emperor, who the high-ranking officials and nobles imagined should be somewhat embarrassed, not only did not get angry, but instead coughed lightly twice, tacitly approving... no, he explicitly approved of Eli's rude behavior.

However, when they heard the name Lina, they understood why His Majesty the Emperor acted. It turned out that this kid Eli had been quietly hooking up with Her Royal Highness the Princess... Well, they were in love with each other. No wonder His Majesty the Emperor didn't care about their behavior.

The number one prodigy of the human race and the number one princess of the human race, you have to say, they are really a perfect match.

"Father, you talk too much. Let's go quickly..."

The shy Princess Lina didn't want to break free from Eli's hand at this time, for fear that he would think too much. However, in front of so many familiar people, especially under the gaze of Duke and Duchess Bruno, she was being so affectionate with Eli, and her little face turned red again.

"Okay, okay, let's go now. We'll go back to the palace now."

Hearing his beloved daughter's shy and anxious urging, the old emperor quickly agreed and without delay, led his ministers back to the imperial capital.

Alas, it was really a waste that he had loved this daughter for so many years. After coming back from a trip, she had someone else to rely on and began to dislike him as her old father.

The old emperor shook his head as he walked. Although it was his idea that Lina and Eli were together, when he really saw his daughter getting close to other men, as an old father he still felt like the cabbage he had carefully nurtured was being eaten by a pig.

Fortunately, this pig is a good pig, one in ten thousand... no, it is a super-excellent pig that is one in billions. There is no other pig as good as this one in the entire human race, or even in the entire continent and ocean. It is not too bad that my cabbage is eaten by this kind of pig.

Following behind the old emperor, Duke Bruno and his wife were whispering to each other in the crowd. They really wanted to come over to show concern for their son who had just returned from the military campaign after half a year, but seeing how close he was to Princess Lina, they were afraid that if they suddenly came over they would disturb them.

That's Princess Lina, the only princess of the Dawn Empire and the apple of the Emperor's eye. In the past, Duke and Duchess Bruno would never have dared to imagine having such a future daughter-in-law. Even though Eli soared to fame in the anti-demon battlefield and shocked the world, they had no idea of ​​marrying into the royal family.

After all, with the Emperor's love and attention to Princess Lina, the only ones worthy of her were the crown princes of the other five empires. The Bruno family had no throne to inherit, so they naturally didn't dare to make plans for Princess Lina.
