Two days later, Otto returned to the Land of the Soaring Dragon.
Even without Sofia’s help, it didn’t take him too long to rest this time; the small amount of divine power from Rose didn’t bring much of an essential change to him.
At most, his body length increased by a tiny bit, along with some other useless abilities.
At this moment, Otto was lazily lying on a pile of financial reports on the Blackstone Platform. Compared to the dry, carbonized ancient tree, this place was much more comfortable.
Felina, the spider-transformed Elf, had also completed her undead transformation ceremony, and it went smoothly.
Although Moray and Konoheim spared no expensive magical materials to keep her looking as much like her living self as possible,
if you looked closely, you could still see many differences between her and a normal living creature.
For example, her unnaturally pale skin and lifeless eyes made it easy for anyone familiar with the undead to recognize her identity.
After getting away from Rose’s influence, Felina’s mental state seemed much better.
Although she still had a somewhat awkward relationship with Sofia, they were both trying to restore normalcy.
At this time, the Council Chamber was unusually quiet, and Otto was attempting to use a new ability that he cared about.
And coincidentally, Moray flew inside looking like he had drunk fake alcohol, swaying from side to side.
“Huh?”
As soon as he entered, he noticed something unusual.
“Wow! My great Majesty, have you been hiding from us all along that you are actually a Black Dragon?”
Otto looked awkwardly at Moray. The new ability that he was experimenting with right now was one he had acquired after absorbing some of Rose’s divine power.
It had no substantial effect, only able to change his exterior color to pure black.
Shaking his head, Otto immediately withdrew this new ability, and his body color returned to its bright silver.
“Did you suddenly come to see me because you have something to tell me?”
Ignoring Moray’s question, Otto looked at him with scrutiny.
In his memory, nothing good ever happened when Moray suddenly popped up.
Moray floated in the air, spinning around and giggling, “There’s been a little mishap ”
“What do you mean?”
“When I created the Death Lord, I implanted some special means into him.
Although the timing is a bit off from my prediction, we might want to prepare ourselves earlier; he might pay us a visit sooner than we expected.
At that time, we might face an endless undead army, and even a joint army composed of many other races in the Dark Domain.”
Otto sighed. Though he knew Moray’s words were unreliable, he didn’t expect them to be this unreliable.
This wasn’t just being a little off, his words could never be fully trusted.
Since Moray had said so, Otto could probably guess that it wouldn’t be too long before they faced the threat of the Death Lord.
In the beginning, he even considered just leaving Moray, taking Sofia with him and running away.
However, times have changed, and not only has he reached the legendary realm himself, even Konoheim, the golden-legged one, has practically settled in the Land of the Soaring Dragon.
All things considered, it seemed like there was no reason for him to be afraid of the Death Lord.
Nonetheless, was Rose somehow involved in all this as well?
After all, the timing of these events seemed almost too coincidental.
“Okay, I got it. Anything else?”
Seeing that Otto looked unconcerned, Moray breathed a sigh of relief. Regarding the Death Lord, he was entirely relying on Otto.
“If it’s just about me, then there’s nothing else.”
The sinister face in the ruby laughed, then continued, “Regarding Sofia’s mother, Felina, I’ve found out some interesting information that you might be interested in.”
“Tell me!”
This time, Otto finally perked up.
“You should already know about Sofia’s eyes.”
Otto nodded, and Moray continued, “This incredible gift couldn’t have appeared out of thin air. Usually, it’s common to explore the previous generation for clues.
But to my surprise, although Felina was a powerful ranger before being transformed by Rose’s power, she didn’t seem to possess such eyes at all.
In fact, she didn’t even have relatively outstanding magical talent.”
Upon hearing this, Otto already understood some things.
In other words, Sofia’s eyes had nothing to do with Felina, so the focus of the investigation should be on Sofia’s biological father.
“About that, it’s a bit tricky ”
Upon hearing Otto’s question, Moray smiled bitterly, “If it were an ordinary race, that would be fine, but Felina is a pure-blooded Dore Elf and an upper-class noble in one of Dark City’s ten major Dore Elf families.”
“What are you trying to say?”
“Dore Elves are a purely matriarchal society, and their needs in that area are quite strong.
Especially for upper-class nobles like Felina, the number of male consorts they have is quite high ”
Okay, since Moray had put it this way, if Otto still didn’t understand, he wouldn’t be a normal male creature.
“Judging from Sofia’s appearance, her biological father should be a human.
Interestingly, according to Felina’s memory, among her male consorts, there was only one human with black hair.”
At this point, Moray continued somewhat helplessly, “But according to Felina’s memory, he was blind ”
“Blind?”
Otto blinked. Wasn’t this a bit too coincidental?
“Yes, to be precise, his eyes had been gouged out.
It seems that someone coveted his special abilities and did this to him.
As for the man himself, he was found by Felina in the slave market in Dark City.
If not for his special appearance meeting Felina’s aesthetic standards, he would have probably died long ago.”
Otto nodded, then continued asking, “What about now?”
“You mean those male consorts?”
Moray chuckled, “They’re probably all dead by now. After discovering Sofia’s talents, other Dore Elves in the city-state tried all sorts of means to control her.
Although Felina had no feelings for her consorts, she clearly cared about Sofia.
To prevent Sofia from being taken away by others, she left the Dark Domain and went to Dawn Forest.
Little did she expect the accidents that happened later.
The humans not only failed to recognize Sofia’s uniqueness, they sold her as an ordinary slave, truly ignorant of her value.
Her persistent attacks on the Human Chamber of Commerce in the Dragon Bone Wasteland were because of this reason.”
