Chapter 1305 - Chapter 1305 Chapter 777 Elusas Past _1
Chapter 1305: Chapter 777: Elusa’s Past _1 Chapter 1305: Chapter 777: Elusa’s Past _1 When Elusa said this, not only the people present, but even the subordinates at the other end of the Mind Talk, couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
As the chief Illusion Master of the Coldflame Royal Family, Elusa, who had quite a reputation among the various Human countries, was already surprising enough that her true identity was a Dark Elf.
Unexpectedly, she was once the Lunar Temple Holy Maiden who controlled half of the Saint Night Kingdom!
It’s important to know that even a kingdom’s top aristocratic families can’t compare with a power like the Moon Palace, which is almost on the same level as the Royal Family.
“Everyone, don’t misunderstand. Before I officially became a Lunar Temple Holy Maiden, I had already escaped from the Moon Palace and eventually made my way to the Coldflame Kingdom,”
Elusa smiled embarrassingly and added, “It’s really fortunate for the choice I made back then, otherwise I wouldn’t be serving under My Lord now, and I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet all of you.”
“Elusa, so when you said you didn’t want to be bound by a predetermined fate, you meant becoming a Lunar Temple Holy Maiden, right?”
Leo Ray rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment before asking.
“That’s right, My Lord.”
Elusa saluted Leo Ray with her hand on her chest, her starry eyes misty as she continued.
“My Lord, the family I belong to is a Priest Clan of the Dark Elf Kingdom. We preside over the rituals and ceremonies within the clan. After Her Majesty the Queen reached an agreement with the first Holy Night King, we took on an additional responsibility, which was to serve as the Holy Maiden of the Saint Night Kingdom’s Moon Palace…”
Through Elusa’s subsequent description, Leo Ray learned the information.
Elusa’s family was quite large, and every century or so, they would select the most outstanding young female Dark Elf to go to the Saint Night Kingdom and serve as the Lunar Temple Holy Maiden, fulfilling the Dark Elf Queen’s promise.
As for why the Elf Tribe, who had a life span of nearly a thousand years before cultivation, had to change the Lunar Temple Holy Maiden every hundred years:
The first reason was to avoid suspicion from other Human countries.
The second reason was that the Dark Elf Queen didn’t want the successive Holy Maidens to be tainted by too much Human influence, or to fall into the vortex of power, which led to this decision.
After all, a hundred years is nothing more than a fleeting moment in the long lives of the Elf Tribe.
Thirty years ago, after careful selection within her family, Elusa was chosen as the candidate for this generation’s Lunar Temple Holy Maiden.
“According to Her Majesty the Queen’s rules, each generation of the Lunar Temple Holy Maiden must first serve as a Holy Maiden-in-waiting for thirty years before officially taking office, in order to learn everything about the previous Holy Maiden, including the handling of all Moon Palace affairs, and even the relationships with each family in the Saint Night Kingdom, and what kind of interactions they have had.”
“In this way, the Holy Maiden can better fulfill the Queen’s promise on her behalf, seamlessly connect with the previous Holy Maiden, and avoid any possible mistakes.”
“After all, the fact that the Lunar Temple Holy Maiden is a Dark Elf is the highest secret of the Saint Night Kingdom. No one knows this, except for each generation’s monarch, including the Moon Palace Saint Generals who are loyal to the Moon Palace.”
Elusa sighed softly and continued, “Even in my own Dark Elf Kingdom, only the Royal Family and the elders of our Priest Clan know.”
Just as Elusa was saying this, Leo Ray signaled Ariel Watson to pass a cup of tea to her, and then frowned and asked, “In that case, the so-called special secret technique of the Moon Palace, which allows the previous Holy Maiden to transfer her memory to the next Holy Maiden before her death, is just a fabricated excuse, right?”
“As expected of My Lord, seeing through the essence of the matter at a glance.”
Elusa gratefully took the cup of tea that Ariel Watson handed over, and quickly nodded, “This was a method the first Holy Maiden thought of. In this way, not only can it increase the mysteriousness of the Lunar Temple Holy Maiden, but it can also allow them to leave without a trace and quietly return to their homeland.”
“So that’s it. No wonder this secret technique is unheard of, and the new Lunar Temple Holy Maiden is always a young woman who has just come of age.”
Ariel Watson’s face cleared up, and she pondered, “If it was the Elf Tribe, everything would make sense.”
“Elusa, why did you give up the position of Moon Palace Holy Maiden back then and choose to escape from the Moon Palace on your own?”
Leo Ray took a deep breath and asked the most important question on his mind.
“To answer My Lord, there’s no big reason, I was just too timid and backed down at the last moment.”
Elusa’s starry eyes dimmed as she held the steaming cup of tea, “I must confess to My Lord that the previous Lunar Temple Holy Maiden was a cousin of mine, a member of my family. We grew up together for nearly a hundred years, and our relationship was very close until she was chosen as the Moon Palace Holy Maiden and suddenly left.
“However, because this cousin took such good care of me, I have always remembered her and missed her deeply.”
“Not until we were separated for more than seventy years, or thirty years ago, when I also became the successor to the Moon Palace Holy Maiden and went to the Holy Night Kingdom, did I finally have the opportunity to reunite with that cousin.”
Elusa’s transformed pale face was filled with a complex mix of solemnity and reluctance, as if recalling some unforgettable past events.
“At first, I was really looking forward to meeting her because after more than seventy years of not seeing each other, my heart was always full of excitement and joy.”
