Arcane Lord

In the outer plane, in the reception room of Nese Palace.

After Sha Duo entered here, he was first surprised that Master Byron, who had disappeared from the main plane for more than half a month, appeared here, and was also confused that the Kaffa envoy and the mysterious elf mage were also present.

I was interested in asking, but found that the atmosphere in the living room seemed a bit tense at the moment. This was mainly seen from the elf mage's occasionally frowning brows, and Master Byron's slightly anxious expression.

As for the Divine Envoy of Kaffa, he looks just like what Xia Duo saw last time in the Kingdom of Glory. He is wearing armor and holding a scepter, standing majestic and quiet.

Judging from his appearance alone, Xia Duo cannot see any emotional flaws.

In such a scene, the princess was not present yet. Just when Xia Duo was at a loss, Master Byron, who was in charge, took the initiative to ask:

"Lord Shado, why are you here?"

Chateau didn't quite understand what Master Byron meant. Should he talk about the succession turmoil within Giles Tower in front of other guests?

He knew that the divine envoy Kaffa came from the Kingdom of Radiance and was closely related to Netheril, so there was no harm in talking about it, but that elf might come from the Elf God Kingdom in the outer plane, and was not the same as the Elf Kingdoms in the Main Plane. There may be a connection.

Here, it was somewhat inappropriate to discuss the discord within Netheril in front of the other party.

In the flash of lightning, various thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, but on the bright side, Xia Duo replied calmly:

"Before the New Year celebration, I came to the outer plane due to an accident and went to the Kingdom of Glory once. After this celebration, in the past half a month, I happened to find a way to go to the outer plane. method, so this trip happened.”

While answering, Sha Duo also paid attention to Master Byron's expression. Sure enough, when he mentioned "more than half a month", the expression on Master Byron's face became even more anxious.

Shado thought thoughtfully. Before this time, he had had a trip to the outer plane, and had personally experienced the time inconsistency between the outer plane and the main plane.

And just before he came to the Princess Kingdom, he encountered a suspected abnormal flow of time in the home area of ​​the four brothers in the wilderness.

Master Byron disappeared for half a month and is now found in the outer plane. Perhaps it is because he lost his perception of time in the main plane that he failed to return in time.

Now his increasingly anxious expression seemed to be telling Xia Duo that he already knew what his delay in returning meant.

Then, Master Byron's face changed again and again, and finally he seemed to have made some kind of decision. His eyes suddenly became firm, and he warned the mysterious elf mage in the living room:

"Messenger Velez, my god has been invited to the Kingdom of Death. The return date has not been determined. If you have nothing else to say, you can leave now."

The Elf Mage, no, it should be the Divine Envoy of Veles, frowned even deeper when he heard Byron's words of farewell. He first glanced at Shado, who had just arrived, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.

After that, he carefully looked at Byron, who had a firm attitude, and finally set his sights on the envoy of Kaffa.

But the Kaffa Divine Envoy did not react at all, and even his eyes showed no emotion as before. He just stood there, like a statue.

"In this case, I will leave first, but I want to remind you that my lord's patience is limited. I hope that this palace will not become the target of my lord's anger in the end."

After saying that, the Kaffa Divine Envoy stood up and left directly.

On the dome of the hall, the holy light angels who were playing around saw this scene and immediately separated into two and were about to land, as if they wanted to see each other off.

But they were stopped by Byron halfway through the flight, so the two small light groups flew up to the dome again and continued to play with their companions.

…

From what Byron just replied to the elf, Shado finally knew the reason why the princess was not here, but his doubts did not diminish at all, but became more.

He glanced at the envoy Kaffa who was still motionless, and when he saw that Byron had not expelled the envoy like the elf envoy, he couldn't help but ask: "Master Byron, what is going on? "

Hearing Sha Duo's inquiry, Byron was silent for a moment, and then slowly began to speak: "After Shiya ascended to the gods, she received invitations from the Lord of Death and the Lord of Elves at the same time. After weighing the balance, she chose to go to the Kingdom of Death. After that, she summoned me here from the main plane to receive the elf envoys.

"As for the Kaffa Divine Envoy——"

Having said this, Byron paused, and at the same time, a metallic voice sounded that was extremely impressive to Sha Duo:

"My Lord is pleased to see the birth of a new god of order, who will keep him away from the control of the forces of chaos."

The envoy of Kaffa only said this sentence and stopped talking, while Byron explained: "The envoy of Kaffa was assigned by the Lord of Radiance to protect Shia from the interference of the elven god."

"Intervention of the Elf God?"

Xia Duo seemed to have thought of something, but also seemed to have thought of nothing. For a moment, his head was buzzing with all kinds of thoughts flying everywhere.

When Byron saw this, he said: "You have outstanding talent, and your future achievements may not be inferior to Xia's. Since you can come here, it doesn't matter if I tell you some things in advance. The information for Xia's ascension ceremony was sent by the elves." Yes, they paid a heavy price for this.”

Byron didn't say anything more specific, but Shado was able to give full play to his imagination. The princess becoming a god should be a good thing for Netheril, and elves couldn't do thankless things.

Combined with what Byron said before, perhaps the various efforts of the elves in the main plane are for the "harvest" of the elves' main god in the outer plane.

As for what the real plan is, Xia Duo can only guess a thing or two. How can anyone else know except the Elf God?

But no matter what plan the Elf Lord has, it is just a plan and has not yet been fully realized. Now that a Lord of Glory has appeared halfway, the future will only depend on the two sides re-engaging in the game.

For a time, Xia Duo was full of curiosity about the world of gods, but without more information, he could only rely on his imagination.

At this time, he remembered his purpose of coming to the outer plane. Although the princess has now gone to the kingdom of death and may not be able to have an impact on the main plane for the time being, Byron is still there.

As long as Master Byron is brought back, the situation in Severton can be cleared up, which may be even better than the direct impact of the princess!

Thinking of this, Sha Duo couldn't help but ask: "Master Byron, is it convenient for you to return to the main plane now?"

When he came, the time in the main plane had already reached the end of January, and it was only more than ten days before the one-month deadline agreed upon by the Seven Towers.

The time in the outer plane is not consistent with that in the main plane. Xia Duo naturally hopes to go back as early as possible. If he goes back late, it will not mean much.
