Dead silence!
The entire royal hall of the Elven Gard Alliance fell into dead silence. The representatives of each race stared wide-eyed at Lax, who stood above them looking embarrassed. Their expressions were exactly like girlfriends abandoned by a scumbag, their eyes filled with resentment and bitterness.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't look at me like that. You're making me shy."
With a cheap grin tugging at his lips, Lax looked at the representatives of the major races below him and waved a hand, signaling them not to get so worked up, so enthusiastic. He really couldn't handle it.
"No, wait. Clammy, why would you agree?"
At that moment, the Flugel representative seemed to think of something and pointed at Clammy, loudly questioning her. After all, Lax had killed Feel right in front of them, and Clammy had grown up under Feel's watch. The relationship between the two was somewhere between lovers and mother and daughter.
With such a deep blood feud between them, the idea that Clammy would help Lax was impossible no matter how they thought about it.
"Because, of course, I'm still alive!"
The next second, Feel popped out of Clammy's shadow with a cheerful smile, gently hugged Clammy from behind, and looked down at the Flugel representative below with a playful expression.
"So from the very beginning, you all joined forces to deceive us."
Looking at Feel above them, the representatives of the major races all understood. From the moment they had first planned to form an alliance, Clammy and Lax had actually already joined forces and fooled every last one of them.
"That's right. Though to be precise, before you even formed your alliance, we had already joined forces. Incidentally, the matter of the Alliance itself was also something my main body deliberately guided into existence."
