After I died, my personal maid rebelled.

Chapter 281 Cooperation between the Two Races

Filled with guilt she hadn't felt in years, Zena almost exhausted herself trying to explain the situation to Luna.

General Serfland braved hardships to come and help them, preparing to send troops and arranging valuable supplies to seek reinforcements.

And what did she do? She actually caused the general to be insulted and was even mistaken for his male lover...

Fortunately, the young lady was a straightforward person, and after realizing her mistake, she repeatedly apologized to Serfland. She truly hadn't expected that there was a group of overseas elves who had become normalized.

What else could Serfland do? The elf was under the eaves and had no choice but to bow his head. At that time, he chose to forgive her.

Luna, who also wanted to know about the situation in the Elf Kingdom, led the elves to the map to exchange information while the soldiers went to the square to execute the nobles.

Where is the Undead Legion located now?

"In the northeast of the Elf Kingdom, there are high mountains blocking the way, as well as a large number of agile mountain elves. It is because of their perseverance that we have had the precious time to come from overseas."

Serfland pointed to a corner of the map, his calm tone tinged with urgency. No matter how depraved or wretched they were, they were still his kin, his brothers and sisters.

Witnessing such a catastrophe firsthand, yet feeling powerless to stop it, tormented Serfland's heart.

"So you're looking for reinforcements?"

Luna accurately deduced Serfland's purpose. In fact, there was no need to think about it carefully. If they weren't in a hurry to save their own country, why would the elves come to the Eastern Territory?

"Yes, if we seek help from the Eastern Territory, would you mind, Miss?"

Without choosing to hide it, Serfland nodded and looked at Luna, nervously awaiting her answer.

After pondering for a moment, Luna tapped the table. "Regardless of how you plan to persuade Dale, I now control two earls, and the Eastern Army's deployment is contingent on my withdrawal from the Eastern Territory. What do you intend to offer in return for this deal?"

Serfland remained silent at first, then presented his conditions.

"I have heard that the young lady's army is attacking the central district. If the elven race can overcome this disaster, I will personally lead an army of 10,000 elite elves to assist the young lady in achieving her goal of hegemony."

Luna sneered upon hearing this. She did not believe that the elves could defeat the undead army by cooperating with the Eastern Army. The alliance was formed precisely to split at the crucial moment.

Without the determination to make enormous sacrifices, one side will eventually have to retreat due to excessive casualties in the face of the tireless and never-retreating undead army.

Luna was equally confident. The Central Army had no generals, and even the king was a puppet. If it weren't for the frequent interference from the Goddess's forces, her brother would have already razed the royal city to the ground.

Moreover, the elves' so-called help is a joke, and it might even tarnish the brother's glorious record.

The dwarves who live in the mountains are true residents of the northern territory. They not only pay taxes, but also work hard to manufacture weapons and actively join the army.

It's bad enough that you Pokémon have a bad reputation, but now that a normal Pokémon has finally appeared, the condition you're asking for is to get something for nothing?

Luna's gently raised gaze was incredibly heavy.

"My elder brother has entrusted me with the affairs of the South. I am both the leader and the representative of human power."

"To say something you may not like to hear, Elf General, I will not allow you to make a deal with the Eastern Territory, but..."

Before the eager Serfland could speak, Luna raised her hand to signal him to be quiet.

"I can accept your loyalty in place of my brother."

"What?!"

Anger surged within him; Serfland never imagined that the little human girl standing before him would harbor such great ambition.

But as soon as Serfland made a move, squads of heavily armed dwarven soldiers stormed in and surrounded him.

"Do you think I'm delusional?" Luna smiled gently, her slender fingers tracing Zena's bitter face.

"But the truth is right before your eyes: the light of the Northern Territory will shine equally on every living being."

"Even elves?"

A dwarf captain gripped his warhammer nervously, sensing Serfland's power, and asked with some uncertainty.

Luna, who was momentarily speechless for no apparent reason, quickly regained her friendly smile and replied, emphasizing each syllable.

"That includes elves, of course."

The hasty meeting quickly came to an end. After calming down, Serfland led the elves away from the castle, only to find that they were now accompanied by a squad of paladins guarding them.

Serfland shook his head, choosing to ignore it. As he passed the square, he paused to observe the bustling trial proceedings for a while, and remarked to Zena with emotion.

"You're right, Miss Zena, we really shouldn't have had any contact with her."

"Actually, Miss Luna is a very friendly person. If she considers you her friend..."

Zena smiled rather reluctantly. "How about we rest here for the day? Your Excellency, I have a friend I can talk to, but he doesn't seem to be in the city right now."

Zena had quite a bit of contact with several important figures in the Northern Territory.

Needless to say, Jenny had worked with the other to develop an antidote for the plague. However, even though Jenny was willing to help the elves, she was always blocked by Elene.

Eleanor is somewhat of a realist, which is why she is a woman of strong values, because the pull of reality is too heavy.

Actually, gaining the Northern Territory's help is quite simple: just make the Duke believe that the elves will be of help for the future.

Zena initially wanted to find information about the Cult of Machines, but unfortunately, the library in the Elf capital was looted.

The conditions proposed by Miss Luna are not unreasonable. If they are elves, the prerequisite is that they are elves with universal values, and they choose to pledge allegiance to the Northern Territory and Duke Oswald.

Duke Oswald would definitely send an elite division. Even if he couldn't completely annihilate the undead army, he would open a safe passage to transfer all the elves to the rear.

But the proud elves of the overseas lands are different from the dwarven slaves; they too stand on the side of the saviors. If there is truly no other way, they will abandon the rescue of the mountain elves and take all the survivors overseas.

They could not possibly be forced to submit to another racial leader in order to save their own people.

After requesting to stay overnight in the city, the elves were accommodated in a nobleman's exquisite mansion, and Luna also had food and daily necessities sent to them.

It doesn't matter if the cooperation doesn't go through; now it's the young lady's turn to entertain the guests from afar.

After dark, the city returned to silence. Unable to sleep due to anxiety, Serfland poured himself a glass of wine and sat in the living room to pass the time.

A sudden knock on the door startled Serfland, who was sighing. He opened the door in confusion and found the valiant paladin he had met during the day standing before him.

"You must be General Serfland. I am Paul, Grand Master of the Northern Territory Holy Knights. I have come to see you to discuss cooperation."

Serfland was overjoyed. He had heard Miss Zena mention this man before. Paul was not only one of the strongest men in the human kingdom, but also deeply trusted and valued by the Duke and the young lady of the North.

More importantly, he was a paladin who was a moral exemplar.

"Quickly, please come in."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Paul went to the table, spread out the map in his hand, and then covered the corners with two oil lamps.

"We can certainly work well together, General Serfland."

Paul was a bit tired after a busy day, so he didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point with his advice.

"You mountain elves trapped in the northeastern mountains can actually evacuate through the territory of the Eastern Territory."

"Furthermore, if you can help the young lady take over the entire Eastern Territory, our Northern Army can be freed up to assist you in eliminating the Undead Legion."

"On the condition that, General Serfland, I need to know how many troops you ordinary overseas elves can actually deploy on the battlefield."
