Chapter 155 His Majesty the Emperor
"Alyssa is still the most likable, unlike its owner."
Alyssa took the initiative to come over to comfort her, and Eleanor was still very happy. She reached out and touched a scale on its huge dragon head... Eleanor also pretended to mutter in a low voice like Evelyn.
"Okay, stop talking, the other side can already see us."
Just as Eleanor touched Alyssa's dragon head and muttered, even if their group of people were playing on the road, the horses did not stop. Unknowingly, they had walked into the sight of the welcoming team.
Although there was still some distance, those present were not weak. With their eyesight, they could see the deep eyes of the old emperor and the expectant eyes of the high officials and nobles of the imperial city, including the Duke and Duchess of Bruno.
"Elai is back, and he brought a lot of people with him."
"Now we have to call him Saint Eli, he is not the little junior before."
"Who are the people around him? Why is there a child?"
"Such a young child, is he also back from the battlefield?"
Fortunately, Eleanor is only level seven at present, and her hearing is not enough to see what she can see, otherwise the muttering of some noble officials in the distance would make her furious again.
When Eli and his group got closer, the discussion in the opposite crowd stopped. After all, it was the emperor's turn to appear, and they dared not make a fuss at this time and ruin the emperor's majesty.
At this time, the sensible Eli immediately asked the beautiful girls to dismount, and as for the deputy general Longdo and the guards behind him, they had already dismounted and walked without his instructions.
Even if he had returned after making great contributions, Eli knew that he could not ride a horse to accept the emperor's greeting while he was standing. It was disrespectful to look down at the monarch. Although Eli was reckless, he was not ignorant of these rules. Besides, he was his father-in-law, so he had to respect him.
"Our great hero is back, Eli, come here, uncle hasn't seen you for a long time..."
When Eli led the team over, the Emperor of the Dawn Empire, who was standing at the front of the crowd, waved at him with a smile and called him over enthusiastically. Those who didn't know would think that their relationship had always been very close.
In fact, it was good enough for His Majesty the Emperor to recognize him, the son of the Duke. In the huge imperial capital, there were countless noble children from major families. Although the Bruno family had a high status, it was not ranked too high in the imperial capital where princes were everywhere and princes were often present.
That is, he was too invincible on the battlefield in the past six months. With his amazing strength and terrifying potential, His Majesty the Emperor, who was the ruler of the empire, had 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 shocking as Eli. Even the ancestor who has already ascended to the Temple of the Gods did not have such strength at his age.
Although His Majesty the Emperor has always lived in the imperial capital and has never witnessed Eli's heroic appearance on the battlefield, since he broke out of the war zone and swept the demons, he has paid special attention to every battle report about him and reviewed it carefully.
Every battle report related to Eli is a surprise to His Majesty the Emperor. 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, is somewhat untrue. In the eyes of the continental countries, even including the Sea Kingdom, the Elf Empire, with all its members crazy, has the actual combat power to compete for the continent.
Although due to population, economy, culture, education, infrastructure and other factors, no matter how strong the Elf Empire's military is, it is impossible to compete with the Dawn Empire, but the crazy elves are really scary. It is an insult to them to fight one against ten.
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 life and death 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 very strange. When they are united, they are very united, but when they are sick, they are very stupid. The strengthening of the Elf Empire is a great thing for the anti-demon cause. Everyone agrees on this.
But after the Elf Empire became stronger, the elves threatened the status of the first race on the human continent, and the Elf Empire may ascend to the throne of the first empire. Sorry, some people will jump out and make a fuss.
Although in the state of war against demons in the whole world, those who want to make trouble cannot fight the Elf Empire with real swords and guns, but they can use the means that humans are familiar with, such as causing 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.
In the previous life, when the elves were violent, the Dawn Empire, as the representative of the human race, and the Elf Empire were almost at odds. Fortunately, the emperor of the empire and most of the empire's high-ranking officials were sober, and they did not go crazy 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 fools stopped because they could no longer see the threat. It took a lot of effort. Of course, even Eli didn't know about these situations. After all, in the previous life He is just a mediocre young general and has no access to these secrets.
But in this life, after the elves turned on the violent mode, it didn't take long for idiots to show up. Fortunately, just when they had become a little bit clumsy, the human race's genius Eli Bruno turned out to be.
A twenty-year-old genius saint...
The invincible master of the battlefield...
The demon nemesis who kills the demon king like a chicken and a dog...
Look at this person, compared with the elves who relied on the blessing of the main god when they fell, it is true that my human race is stronger and more loved by the gods.
Because of the birth of Eli, the crazy people who firmly believe in the supremacy of the human race have someone to brag about. If they are still in the mood to quarrel with the elves, they should seize the time to brag... No, it is to present the facts and describe me in a reasonable way. The glorious deeds of the genius of the human race.
So what if your elves can’t be killed? Look at my brother Eli, can any demon come close to him alive?
So what if your elves have made a lot of military exploits? Look at my brother Eli, he killed more demons by himself than you, a hundred thousand elves!
Your elf clan has a peerless genius who has killed the demon clan in several war zones. So what if you are named the elf princess? Look at my brother Eli. He is at the same level as your elf princess, and his record is even more exaggerated. He is twenty years old this year. How old is your elf princess? Oh, two hundred and six...
It has to be said that the historical development of a generation where the genius of the human race suppressed the elves was very different from that of the genius of the human race who suppressed the elves. At least in this life, with Eli taking the lead, the relationship between the Dawn Empire and the Elf Empire has never been stiff. Cooperation in all fields was extremely smooth.
Because of Eli, His Majesty the Emperor was able to suppress the sources of restlessness within the empire, and was able to cooperate seamlessly with the Elf Empire, achieving brilliant results in all major battlefields.
Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor has a very good impression of Eli. He is even willing to marry his most beloved only daughter to him. Of course, with Eli’s current strength and the gifts he will give in the future, His status, matched with Lina's, does not mean he has wronged her.
I just heard that Eli had two close female bodyguards when he was in the Duke's Palace. It was said that they were a bit lustful, but it didn't matter much. With Lina's appearance, the more lustful Eli was, the more lustful he was. If he can't live without her, it won't be a big problem to get Eli's exclusive favor.
As for the two personal female guards, they will be relegated to side rooms at most. With their backgrounds, they pose no threat to Lina's family status.
"Long time no see, Eli, you have grown up."
As Eli walked over, His Majesty the Emperor stopped thinking. He patted Eli on the shoulder and said with emotion.
"Your Majesty, Eli is lucky to have lived up to your expectations and finally came back alive."
To be honest, Eli was not familiar with the emperor in front of him in any life. At this time, facing the enthusiasm of the old emperor and his new father-in-law, he could only choose to chat awkwardly.
"Not only have you lived up to my uncle's expectations, my uncle knows everything you did on the battlefield. Come, follow your uncle back to the city. My uncle has already held a banquet in the palace, just to welcome you."
For today's Eli, the old emperor really paid great attention to him. Not only did he call himself uncle, but he also took his hand affectionately and wanted to take him back to the city "with his own hands".
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 let him lead him to walk such a long way?
Of course, Eli definitely did not dislike the old emperor's old and rough hands. He was just more humble. No matter how great his merits were, it would be inappropriate to hold hands with the noble emperor. This was a little bit of pride because of his merits. It's better to take a step back and hold hands with the less noble Princess.
Eli has always been a decisive person. Since he thought so, of course he would do it. So, under the spotlight of everyone, Eli escaped from the old emperor's control without leaving a trace, and instead took the next one Hands of girl with hood covering face.
"this……"
"How can this be so..."
The high-ranking officials and nobles who saw this scene were stunned for a moment, and then some couldn't help but exclaimed in low voices. If they hadn't been concerned about His Majesty's face, they would have started talking at this moment.
As the emperor of the Empire of Dawn, a noble being among the gods and above billions of people, the old emperor should have been angry at Eli's somewhat rude and even disrespectful actions, but he looked at the hooded girl he was holding. , the old emperor's anger couldn't come up at all.
Lina is his most beloved daughter. Not to mention that her face is only covered by a hood, but she turns into ashes... Bah, he can recognize her even if she comes from a different race. Originally, there was Eli, the old emperor, who made great contributions. It's not good to care about his daughter right away. After all, when it comes to business matters, he still has to put the country first.
But since the first target of attention and the first target of concern have hooked up, no one is more important than the other. They should both be considered their own children, right?
"Ahem...Eli, Lina, no matter how good your relationship is, you still have to pay attention to it outside. Considering your young age, your father will not care about it this time, but he won't allow it next time. "
Also under the spotlight, the emperor, who should be somewhat embarrassed in the imagination of the high officials and nobles, not only did not get angry, but coughed twice, tacitly approving... no, he explicitly approved of Eli's disrespectful behavior.
However, when they heard the name Lina, they understood the emperor's behavior. It turned out that Eli had quietly hooked up with the princess... uh, they were in love with each other, no wonder the emperor didn't care about their behavior.
The first pride of the human race and the first princess of the human race, don't say it, they are really a good match.
"Father, you talk too much, let's go quickly..."
The shy Princess Lina didn't want to break away from Eli's hand at this time, lest he think too much, but in front of so many acquaintances, especially under the gaze of the Duke and Duchess of Bruno, she was kissing Eli, and her little face was red again.
"Okay, okay, let's go right away. Let's go back to the palace."
Hearing his precious daughter's shy and anxious urging, the old emperor quickly agreed. Without a moment's delay, he led all the ministers back to the imperial capital.
Alas, it was really in vain that he had loved this daughter for so many years. After this trip, she had someone else to rely on, and she began to dislike him as an old father.
The old emperor shook his head as he walked. Although it was his intention that Lina and Eli were together, when he really saw his daughter getting close to other men, as an old father, he still felt that the cabbage he had carefully cared for was being pushed by a pig.
Fortunately, this pig was a good pig, one in a million... No, it was a super-excellent pig, one in a billion. The entire human race, even the entire continent and the ocean combined, could not find a second such excellent pig. It was not too bad that his own cabbage was pushed by such a pig.
Following the old emperor, the Duke and Duchess of Bruno were whispering to each other all the way. They wanted to come over to show concern for their son who had returned from the war for 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 was Princess Lina, the only princess of the Dawn Empire, the apple of the Emperor's eye. If it were in the past, the Duke and Duchess of Bruno would not dare to think of having such a future daughter-in-law. Even if Eli soared to the sky 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 who could match her were the crown princes of the other five empires. The Bruno family had no throne to inherit, so they naturally did not dare to take advantage of Princess Lina.
