For a long time, Ailuner finally released the queen from his embrace.
This time, Gu Shengyin clearly saw that there was no hint of disguise in the affection in his eyes, so intense that it seemed almost enough to drown someone.
"Her Majesty the Queen, thank goodness you are fine," Ailuner spoke, startling Gu Shengyin with the huskiness of his voice. How could it be so raspy?
She did not know that since the night she had left, Ailuner had been having the same dream over and over again.
He dreamt that he was deceived by a strange human woman, after which the Elf Mother Tree in the Holy Land was stolen by her, plunging the entire Elf Race into despair.
She watched as Her Majesty the Queen, for the sake of the entire Elf Race, unhesitatingly sacrificed her own life to become the new Elf Mother Tree.
