274 – A Gift for Them

I greeted Phisovia, who came along with thousands of elves in a large field near my base.

"Are you okay?" I stroked the cheek of the red-haired succubus.

She wore a faint smile, although her face looked tired. "I'm okay, my lord. The trip went well. Even though monsters and rebels were blocking us, we were able to repel them."

"Good." I turned to look at the elves sitting on the grass to rest, then said to them. "Welcome to my place. Relax. You don't need to stand up. Just sit down and listen to me. I know you are exhausted from the long journey."

I looked at them with a big smile, even though I felt fragile. "We are building a settlement for you, but the completion is still a long way off. So, you will live in the tents we have prepared for a while. But don't worry, you will get all your needs. If there's anything else you need, tell the guards."
