Chapter 1038: Blushing, red ears?

Cheng Jieluka was still preparing the super unpalatable fried Morgan cake. I took Xiao Heitan to the river where I was last time, washed her again, and took out a new set... uh, I beat her a lot.

Put on plain clothes with patches.

It seems that finding a job must indeed be put on the schedule, otherwise Xiao Heitan's vigilance will definitely be surprised by the shabby clothes of unknown origin that appear in his hands from time to time.

After dinner, Xiao Heitan, whose physical strength was almost exhausted, lay down on the table and fell asleep quietly without any orders from Jeluka and me.

Jeluka and I looked at each other, and after moving Little Heitan to bed, we each exchanged our opinions. In the end, we reluctantly came to the most likely conclusion - Little Heitan's original parents looked kind to outsiders.

They are ordinary, but they secretly force Xiao Heitan to do heavy work. Otherwise, why would Xiao Heitan work so hard and why should he be afraid of us? Jeluka concluded angrily.

Although I feel that she is a little emotional, I do not rule out this possibility. Seeing Xiao Heitan's appearance when he comes back, to be honest, I also want to turn it into a vicious mine that symbolizes the bourgeoisie's oppression of labor.

The place was blown away.

Early the next morning, I repeatedly told Xiao Heitan not to do the heavy work of mining ore again, and let her play in peace and contentment like an ordinary child, although I still worried about how she would do it.

But it's a pity that Jeluka and I can't leave, because if the letter yesterday was successfully sent to the elves, then probably those elven mages would be here today.

For such a high efficiency of action, people really have to sigh. The teleportation array is definitely not the contraceptive pill. It is really the greatest invention in the world.

When Jeluka and I found out about the Mage Guild, we found that we were still a little late.

At the entrance of the guild, a group of mysterious people wearing cloaks, completely shrouding themselves inside, stood at the door, staring covetously at a row of Alliance mages standing inside. Some of them even yelled at each other, and their mysterious attire became uncomfortable.

So mysterious.

Needless to say, these are the elven mages who came from afar. They had arrived early in the morning, and were stopped by the mages from the alliance. Looking at the mages standing at the door, they were all part of a plan to save humanity.

Members of the group, I'm sorry, because the name is too long, I almost forgot all the names as soon as I stepped out of the guild door yesterday.

"What's going on here?"

Seeing the expected strong smell of gunpowder, I quickly walked up and asked knowingly.

"It's His Royal Highness."

"Lady Carol!!"

The elf mage standing at the door turned around and when he saw it was us, he immediately shouted happily as if he had found his backbone.

"Thank you for coming all the way to help me and meet my arbitrary requirements."

I smiled and nodded at the elf mages. This time it was indeed the alliance's mages who were at fault. In any case, there was no reason to block guests from afar at the door of our house.

"Sir Elder, what exactly is going on?"

On the Alliance mage side, an old mage shook his beard and asked in a sharp voice. Even the crutch he was leaning on was not so calm and was trembling.

Oh, I have an impression. If I remember correctly, this guy should be the leader of the Nasha Nasha team of the human salvation plan, Master Magellan.

I won't complain about this name, absolutely not.

"Is there anything strange? Didn't I tell you yesterday?" I blinked, not understanding where the other person's excitement came from.

"But...but this is too fast."

Magellan's trembling fingers pointed at a group of elven wizards opposite him. He looked like he had just clicked the button to confirm the order. There was a doorbell ringing outside. When he opened the door, he found that the courier had already delivered the ordered goods to his door. Therefore, the online shopping madman was stunned.

.

"Sorry, you said it would take at least a month to get results. I made it very clear at the time that we can't wait for this time, so we will invite their mages from the elves to come over and assist."

Sighing, I explained calmly. It seems that it is really a big problem to get these two groups to get along and work together on research. It might have the opposite effect and slow down the progress of the research. I originally decided to ask the elves for help.

When the clan asked for help, was it because you were too optimistic about the relationship between the two clans, especially the mages of the two clans?

"It's...hateful."

Magellan punched the door frame. He was obviously already on crutches, but this angry punch was particularly powerful. The solid mage door trembled slightly, and the words "old and strong" came to people's minds involuntarily.

The same goes for En and Farah. Is crutches a popular decoration for the elderly these days? You old men who can live for at least forty or fifty years should restrain themselves, you bastards!!

"I originally thought that these guys would come back in at least three or two days. They have been working hard these days to show off some results, but I didn't expect..."

As a result, the old man Magellan muttered some purposes that made it impossible for people to sympathize with the anger in his heart.

"Captain Magellan, my condolences."

The group of mages behind them are also dejected, like a defeated rooster. It's so shameful. Is this really the mage team of our alliance?

"Humph, so that's what happened."

The leading Elf mage snorted and made a proud voice.

"It's so shameful. Is this the mage from the Adventurers Alliance? I really can't stand it anymore."

Yes...yes...

Being said like this, I, an elder of the alliance, can only cover my face. I am already a lot older and still look like a child in kindergarten. It is really hard to stand...

"I, Victoria, can't bear to plan such a despicable and insidious conspiracy secretly to try to attack us."

He lifted up the cloak and hat that covered his head, revealing a woman's face that was about fifty years old, well-maintained, and still vaguely had the beautiful contours of her youth. What was particularly prominent was the pair of pointed ears.

Showing his identity as an elf, he wears an aristocratic single-eye lens on his eyes with some lines at the corners, which brings out the elegance of the elf and the mellow temperament of the mage.

Yes, yes, I can’t stand it anymore...

"Huh?"

When I came back to my senses, I found that the elves, represented by Victoria, and the alliance mages, represented by Magellan, were like two armies facing each other on the battlefield. Dragons and tigers appeared above each other, creating a menacing aura that was about to break out.

"..."

Come and take a look, everyone, there are two groups of kindergarten children here.

In this tense atmosphere, Victoria suddenly turned around and faced me.

"Your Highness, originally it was for your sake that I reluctantly agreed to cooperate with these boring guys."

Sighing, Victoria cast a look of contempt at the angry Alliance mage behind her.

"But now it seems..."

Eh-Eh Eh?!!

Could it be that she doesn’t want to do it anymore? The cooperation failed? In addition to finding a pain worm for Xiao Heitan to control as soon as possible, I also wanted to take this opportunity to allow the mages with the worst relationship between the two tribes to cooperate with each other.

Understand and reduce the opposition, but I didn't expect it to become what it is now.

"But now it seems that we have higher priorities than following His Royal Highness the Prince's call."

Ha...huh?!

Things seem to be going in a strange direction.

"That's right, we have to let these alliance guys who only know how to play small tricks see how big the gap between the levels of the two races of mages is!!"

With that said, Victoria took off the monocle on her left eye, wiped it elegantly with a white handkerchief, put it back on, and then cast the arrogant gaze from the bright lens, accompanied by a cold smile, to the person opposite.

Alliance Mage.

"It's exactly what I want. Let you, those arrogant elves, see how big the gap is between your level and ours."

Magellan responded with a smile. He was not wearing a monocle, but in order not to be outdone, he made a stick with the crutch in his hand, and made a threatening sound of "Whoa~oh~" from his mouth, which was quite a bit like Kane.

There is a charm in it. Could it be that the two of them were classmates when they were young?

"Please, I hope you won't be crying when you walk out of this door."

Magellan said gloomily, and as he finished speaking, the mages blocking the door gave way to a dark entrance inside. Together with the weird smiles of the mages, the atmosphere was set off like the last scene in Dragon Quest.

The entrance to the Demon King's Hall is just like that.

"Hmph, I really think you'll cry without even stepping out of this door."

Victoria Mage snorted heavily, and with a group of elf mages behind her, stepped in without hesitation. Of course, they now seemed to be playing the role of brave men who bravely entered the devil's cave.

Later, Magellan followed closely with a group of Alliance mages and disappeared at the door.

"Um...is this also what you expected?"

After standing outside the door, feeling the cold wind blowing for a long time, I turned back stiffly and looked at Jeluka whose expression remained unchanged, as if she had expected it.

"Huhemhem~~"

It was only then that Jeluka, like a female secretary who had finished her work, took off her serious mask, her lips curled up slightly, showing a proud look.

"Then why is it not simple? At this stage, it is simply impossible for the mages of the two races to put aside their prejudices and work together."

While I was stunned, she closed the small yellow book in her hand, showed her sly smile again, and started talking.

"So, if cooperation is not possible, then competition is also a good way to promote efficiency. Moreover, if we can understand and recognize each other during the competition, we can bring this competition to a situation where good competition and communication coexist.

, not only can the original purpose be achieved in the same way, but the efficiency will be increased by at least five times.”

"Hiss~~~~~~~~~~"

Jeluka's current appearance makes me seem to see the side of the old fox Akara behind her that occasionally shows up - that "gentle" smile that only inadvertently shows up when exploiting and squeezing other people's labor.

If this slutty maid is allowed to become a capitalist, the factories she opens will be filled with blood and tears from workers who have nowhere to complain.
