The Magic Empire for 20,000 years

Chapter 84, Section 80: The Elf's "Inevitable Victory" Strategy!
The elven mage Serka Radiance began to explain her plan in detail:

"We will withdraw our troops now."

"This will definitely lower the guard of the human side."

"Wait a few days or a week or two, find a late night, and the three of us legendary spellcasters will quietly return to launch a surprise attack on the human camp, causing some casualties and losses."

"No need to cause much destruction, just blow up a few bunkers, kill a few human mages, and then teleport away immediately."

Princess Lia of the Sun Elf was a little confused:
"But even with just this little bit of destruction, killing a dozen or twenty humans wouldn't be enough to explain back home."

They mobilized so much manpower and resources from the three major families, and all they got was a tiny bit of loss to humanity?

I'm too ashamed to even mention it to my father when I get back!
Serka shook his head, smiled slightly, and said slowly:

"Given the current tense relationship between elves and humans, do you think they'll actually conduct a detailed reconciliation of their military losses?"

"Even if they did, would they trust each other's casualty figures?"

Upon hearing this, both Guirasser and Lia were taken aback. As fellow sun elves, they immediately understood what Serka Radiance meant.

high!
That move was absolutely brilliant!

They launched a night raid on the human camp, destroying some of the bunkers and towers and killing a number of human mages.

Then record a few clips using a photo crystal.

Even though the actual damage was relatively limited and did not truly cripple the human army...

When we get back, they can say whatever they want how many enemies we actually killed!

As long as there is even a little evidence, anything not recorded is just made up.

“That’s a brilliant idea, Serka Radiance, you’re a genius!” Guirasser exclaimed.

The elves are known for their incredibly rich and undisguised emotions, and they never hesitate to use exaggerated and laudatory language!

"Let's go with this," Lia said, expressing her support.

As a legendary mage who rose through the ranks, treated magic as an art, and almost never fought, Serka Radiance seemed to have mastered this art, adding:

"Your Highness, Guiraser."

"We must all agree on the outcome of this war."

"First of all, the Sun Elf army was at the city gates, full of vigor, which terrified the humans!"

"We originally planned to launch a full-scale offensive and annihilate the defensive forces of the human kingdom."

"However, Her Majesty the Queen had previously issued an order requiring us to exercise restraint."

"We heeded Her Majesty's teachings and did not want the elven warriors to shed their blood in vain, so we exercised maximum restraint, and only some small-scale clashes occurred between the two sides."

"In these small-scale conflicts, we destroyed dozens of sturdy bunkers and towers and a large number of fortifications, killed over a hundred mid-to-high-level human mages, and repelled the human king, a legendary mage, truly letting the human race feel the wrath of the elves!"

"At the same time, no coalition soldiers or mages were killed in the battle."

"The only regret is that, because the coalition exercised maximum restraint, we were unable to break through the encirclement and rescue Alamir Kingpetal."

"Even so, we conducted an on-site inspection of Alamir's current situation and confirmed that Mr. Alamir has not suffered any abuse and is currently living in good conditions..."

Based on her years of political experience with the Sun Elf family, Serka easily crafted a flawless set of official rhetoric.

"Oh, Serka, you are a genius among geniuses!" Guiraser exclaimed in delight.

Seka smiled without saying a word, as if he felt that "although he did nothing in this expedition, he deserves the most credit."

"Wait a mininute,"

Leah raised an eyebrow, suddenly noticing something amiss:
"Sekar, before the expedition, everyone in the Radiant Clan said that you were the family's greatest pride. Fifty years ago, you personally led the family's legion to drive out eight orc clans and a frost giant tribe from the North. Is this achievement true?"

Could it have been edited in a similar way?
"Uh, cough cough, this... of course it's really... really true..." Serka rolled her eyes and quickly changed the subject:
"Your Highness, let's not get sidetracked. Let's discuss the night raid plan!"

And so, the three legendary elves began to discuss their night raid plan.

What the three of them didn't know was—

The scene of their discussion in the camp was broadcast from Leah's perspective and presented in Elian's mirror!

……

"So, the Sun Elves are actually this bored?"

"What's the point of just fabricating a victory that doesn't actually need to exist?"

In the human camp, the dragon vein warlock Little Grete stared at the scene in the mirror, speechless, completely unable to understand the way these sun elves thought.

“That’s right. The Sun Elves consider themselves the representatives of the elven gods, more noble than any other race in the world. They cannot allow themselves to lose to a foreign race under any circumstances,” Elian laughed. “For them, victory is a necessity, a cornerstone for maintaining the elven values ​​that are above all else.”

"As expected of His Majesty Elion, he was able to monitor three legendary spellcasters without being detected!"

The bald man next to him, Card, didn't forget to flatter him, then made an angry and serious expression:

"Your Majesty, these elves are truly despicable. Now that their night raid plan has been confirmed, Your Majesty, you and the six of us ninth-ring spellcasters should prepare in advance, and at the same time gather a large number of high-ranking mages to ambush at the designated location. We will surely be able to capture all three of them!"

"Under Your Majesty's guidance, I have just modified the judgment module of the [Suppress Elf Domain] spell model. This time, it will definitely not be avoided by that Sun Elf princess."

"Hahaha, once my domain is activated, the three elves will be dumbfounded."

Ever since the rebellion was easily quelled by Elian, this Archmage of Protection has been waiting for 10 years. He has finally gotten the chance to serve His Majesty and atone for his sins!
Upon hearing this, the Grand Master of Energy, Gut, also became enthusiastic:

“Yes, Your Majesty Elion, defeating just one Alamir is no match for those arrogant elves.”

"This time we directly killed three legendary elves, imprisoned and tormented their souls, preventing them from returning to the elven kingdom."

"Let those arrogant pointy-eared demons see what humans are capable of!"

In the corner of the room, the archmage Cassandra, who was prophesying the plan proposed by Gut and Kad, was startled:
"Wait, wait, can I join too?"

"As you know, my strength is reconnaissance, so I'm better suited to staying behind the scenes. There's no need for me to actually be on the field."

"I... I can pre-cast buff spells like [Early Warning] for you."

This bespectacled, gloomy-looking woman, with her nervous demeanor, is someone you would never guess is actually one of the seven most skilled spellcasters in the magical empire of Eldoron.

Helen, the great magician of transformation, lowered her head, considering the suggestions of the people before her:
"If we really want to capture these three legendary Sun Elf spellcasters, we must make careful preparations, devise a meticulous plan, and prepare several different countermeasures."

"After all, defeating a legendary spellcaster is easy, but killing or capturing them can be much more troublesome."

Seeing the former rebellious quartet now wholeheartedly devoted to the fate of Eldoron, Elion couldn't help but smile calmly.

It's important to know that in the original timeline, neither the protection mage Khad nor the prophecy mage Cassandra lived to see the Abyss invade 20 years later and become part of the forces protecting Eldoron.

—The former lost out in the political struggle between the chiefs and was eliminated by the original owner, Elion;

The latter, due to his frequent use of the [Interdimensional Detection] spell to communicate with dangerous otherworldly beings, was targeted by a demon lord or great demon, killed, and had his soul taken. The other chiefs watched this unfold without intervening.

But now, these powerful warriors of Eldoron have long been united around Elion, becoming a force to protect the nation!

"Okay, everyone, quiet down, quiet down."

Elion made a downward gesture, interrupting the discussion about how to capture the three legendary Sun Elves:

"Do you really intend to capture or even kill these three legendary elves?"

"Uh...isn't that right?" Little Grete looked bewildered.
