Chapter 633 - Chief Moon
Chief Moon was sitting at the end of the big hall, together with his attendants. Chief Moon was a middle-aged man with the face of someone in his forties. Of course, Chief Moon was much older than he looked. The Chief was 209 years old this year.
The two attendants standing on his side were much older as wrinkles were apparent on their faces. The three looked at Lusha, who walked in a hurry toward them. When she reached ten meters distance, she knelt down and greeted. "This Lusha greets Chief Moon!"
"Rise, Child. Let me hear the report you have." Chief Moon\'s voice was gentle and soothing. He smiled at Lusha, who was standing and looking at his eyes. Lusha took a deep breath and started with the war between the Beast Coven and The Tyrant. However, the attendant to the right of Chief Moon interrupted her midway. "So you failed to stop the war? Isn\'t The Tyrant afraid of The Guardian Beast, and also the Elven, and Us? We can\'t overlook this, Chief. We must gather our force and annihilate The Tyrant, or else we will lose our position in the forest."
"I am sorry, Grand Elder, but I haven\'t finished the report. There\'s more than the war that I have to report." Lusha suppressed her emotion and calmly continued. Her comrades\' lives were at stake, so she quickly interrupted even though it meant disrespect to the Grand Elder.
"Who allowed you to speak when I am speaking!?" Sure enough, the Moonlight Rabbit on the right of Moon Chief was angry when Lusha interrupted him. As the Grand Elder was about to continue scolding Lusha, Chief Moon spoke. "Let her finish what she has to say first, Grand Elder Olming!"
With Chief Moon\'s words, the Grand Elder Olming shut his mouth. But the resentment was still in his eyes as he eyed the Moonlight Warrior. Lusha ignored the gaze and looked at Chief Moon\'s eyes.
"Yes, we can\'t stop the war with the name of our tribe, The Elven, and The Guardian Beasts. We lost the fight and have our limbs t-twisted and c-cut…" Lusha\'s voice shook up when she mentioned the horrible event that happened to her when Bronson and Zaneos attacked them.
"They did not kill us. No, they purposely kept us alive to witness the war, the war where The Tyrant\'s force destroyed the Beast Coven…" Lusha recounted the details of the war that she witnessed while lying down on the ground.
"What about Alton, The Chief of the Beast Coven?" Chief Moon furrowed his brow when he heard the Beast Coven stood no chance against The Tyrant. He did not expect that The Tyrant was this strong to destroy the Beast Coven.
"Chief Alton fought The Tyrant\'s leader, but I can\'t see their fight. From what I know, Chief Alton lost to The Tyrant\'s leader. No, he said himself that he was Emperor of The Empire of Tang. Perhaps Chief Moon knows something about this Empire?" Lusha replied with uncertainty. She did not see the battle, but the fact that Tang Shaoyang occupied the Beast Coven\'s territory meant Chief Alton lost.
Chief Moon and the two Grand Elders\' eyes widened in surprise when they heard Chief Alton lost to the Tyrant Leader, no, The Emperor of The Empire of Tang. Chief Moon rubbed his chin and thought of the name of the empire. He had never heard of this name before. Three Kingdoms and one Forest that was the structure power of the Ortis Continent.
"Then why are you here? You said that your limbs were cut, but I see you are still intact…" The Grand Elder Olming frowned. "Don\'t tell me they send you as bait toward us?"
Lusha immediately shook her head. "No, they sent me here to send you guys a message, but more than that. I have an emergency that I haven\'t mentioned. It\'s about the Guardian Beast, The Kirin. The Kirin has joined The Tang Empire, and she becomes that Emperor\'s subordinate."
"Don\'t joke around, Lusha! I might overlook the fact you disrespect me, but this is simply too far!" Grand Elder Olming pointed his finger at Lusha as his face flushed in anger. The Guardian Beast was not just simply the forest\'s guardian but also a figure that the residents of the forest revered. Saying the Guardian Beast became someone else\'s subordinate was an insult to the whole forest.
Lusha shook her head furiously. "I won\'t dare to lie about this, Grand Elder. I saw with my own eyes that The Kirin was kneeling toward that man. I can describe The Kirin\'s features if you don\'t believe me, so you can confirm if it is the real Guardian Beast or not."
"Go ahead. Tell me The Kirin\'s features!" Chief Moon opened his mouth as his voice was not as gentle as before anymore. As the only individual who had met Kirin, Chief Moon knew Kalliyan\'s features.
Lusha started to mention Kalliyan\'s features one by one, from the color, the horn, and even to the minor details about the hoof. There was no way Lusha would forget that encounter. On top of that, she described the aura she felt from Kalliyan, making sure not to leave a single detail.
Confirming The Kirin on his enemy side, Chief Moon took a deep breath. He recalled the event that happened around The Kirin\'s lair. They also could not contact The Kirin until now, which only supported Lusha\'s claim that The Kirin had followed the Emperor of the Tang Empire.
This was terrible news for the Moonlight Tribe, not just for the Moonlight Tribe, but the other tribes in the forest, including the Elven. Chief Moon\'s index finger tapped the armrest on his chair as he observed the nervous Lusha.
Lusha also hoped that the one she saw was not The Kirin, but she could tell from the Chief Moon\'s reaction that she saw the real thing. Her fingers were fidgety as she had more bad news to say to Chief Moon and the Grand Elders.
Chief Moon noticed this and opened his mouth. "Do you have more information you haven\'t told us? Oh, I remember that they send you to us to relay the message. What is this message you haven\'t told us?" The Grand Elders focused their eyes on the Moonlight Warrior as well.
"There\'s one more, the individual that has an aura that rivals The Kirin. That individual has human-like features, but she has seven pairs of black-feather wings…" Lusha described Zara in detail.
"You are not joking, right?" The shock kept coming over them. Chief Moon rubbed the space between his eyes as he started to get a headache. At this point, he believed what Lusha said to him. Just like Lusha said early, there\'s no reason for her to lie.
"Then what about the message?" Grand Elder Olming was the one who questioned the message. This message might be crucial information for their next step, gathering the force to fight The Tang Empire or compromised to avoid the war.
"The Emperor said surrender or they will bring the war to our tribe, and if we don\'t give an answer within the two days, he will bring the war to our tribe." Lusha relayed the message.
After rubbing the space between his eyes, Chief Moon rubbed his forehead. One Guardian Beast was enough to give him a headache, and now he heard another one that was as strong as the Guardian Beast. This was not something the Moonlight Tribe could face. Especially after years of peace, they were not prepared for a big battle like this.
If it was only The Kirin, they might have a chance to defeat the Guardian Beast along with The Elven. But now, there were many things he needed to consider before taking a big decision, such as declaring the war. Especially, they did not have any information about the Emperor\'s strength.
"What about your comrades? Are they still alive?" Chief Moon tried to distract his mind for a moment by asking Lusha\'s comrades. Of course, his mind was still thinking about the solution to the crisis they faced.
"They are still alive, and their lives are guaranteed safe for two days. After that…" Lusha did not finish her words. Her comrades\' lives were in the hand of Chief Moon\'s decision. Chief Moon was aware of that, but he changed the topic once again.
"What about the Elven? Did the Empire send a message for the Elven too?" The Moonlight Tribe and The Elven were in alliance to maintain peace with the forest. The two tribes had the same role as the Guardian Beast. Chief Moon felt that it was best to talk this out with the Elven\'s King.
"I don\'t know, but Kaylin made a grave mistake. She disrespected The Emperor, and I think The Tang Empire is considering destroying The Elven. They did not release the Elven." Lusha remembered about the two contract scrolls, but the man only used one on her. That meant he did not release the Elven for sure.
At this moment, steps were coming from outside the building… The double doors pushed open as Moonlight Maiden Sylvia entered the hall with the twelves Elder of The Moonlight Tribe followed her.
