BXBX NOVEL Chapter 335 Family Haven
"...A female elf claiming to be Raiden\'s fiancée arrived and wreaked havoc in the camp. She attempted to attack Ez, but just before Ez\'s head could roll, Gundrid intervened and saved him. After successfully calming Raiden\'s fiancée down, Ez and Rada were taken to Aquanorin, The Kingdom of Water Elf.
Grimhammer, the King of Terramore, The Kingdom of Earth Elf. Zephyrion, the King of Aerithor, The Kingdom of Sky Elf. Silvius, the King of Satyria, The Kingdom of Animal Elf. Ardan, the King of Pyrothia, The Kingdom of Fire Elf. Varun, the King of Mirendor, The Kingdom of Swamp Elf.
They assured on behalf of themselves that Ez, The First Diplomat, would not be harmed and would be welcomed in Aquanorin as an honored guest. Until the envoy from Wilwatikta, The Kingdom of Arion, arrives to resolve the issue of the killing of Raiden The Necromancer and his troops in the Bog Forest."
Moku smiled as he rolled up the letter in his hand. Nash and his other wives also smiled. They appeared to be joyful even though their friend and some arion people were currently held captive.
Why?
Because Moku and the other arion believed that diplomacy would not progress smoothly until Ez was held captive. This was what happened with the goblin and alraune tribes. Ez had to be held captive and become a hostage before diplomacy could truly succeed.
If Ez was not held captive, the diplomacy would likely fail, or even if it succeeded, there would be hidden dangers threatening them. Though it may seem superstitious, if it repeatedly occurred, it had become a pattern in the negotiation formula of the arion species.
Ez arrives for negotiation - Ez impresses his interlocutors - Ez\'s luck runs out - Ez is held captive - Moku arrives for negotiation - Negotiation succeeds - They return with gains.
This was the common pattern that needed to occur for diplomacy or negotiation to succeed. If even one part of this pattern was missing, there was likely a hidden mistake they needed to investigate.
With Ez held captive, Moku only needed to go there and finalize the negotiation. Ah... His good friend had truly rendered great service to the arion species and the Wilwatikta Kingdom. If there was a position higher than the Prime Minister other than the King, Moku would have certainly bestowed it upon Ez.
Unfortunately, he could never have a biological daughter. So, it was impossible for him to unite Ez through marriage.
"Ez is truly remarkable, isn\'t he?" Nash exclaimed with admiration.
Moku snorted, "Hmm... indeed, my friend is exceptional. Despite being a coward, he is not lazy like you."
"Ugh..."
"Hey, stop bullying your own child," Nevare intervened to rescue her son.
"Nash has been training hard to become a strong asura. Moku, why don\'t you ever praise his efforts?" Nezena, Nash\'s other mother, defended him.
"Tch," Moku just clicked his tongue, not wanting to get involved with these two overprotective mothers.
"So, when will you go to Aquanorin?" Nerphyl asked.
"Not anytime soon, of course. Ez will remain safe until I arrive there. Besides, it seems they have specific plans for Ez. I want to let them execute those plans," Moku smirked with a cunning look.
"I\'m puzzled, why do they actually want to become heroes? Are they so envious of Iron Darius and Lily Ariel?"
Although the result of Ez\'s investigation was not written in this letter, the hidden message was clear to Moku. It was written using dragon prana, so those without the inner eye wouldn\'t be able to read it.
Perhaps Ez already knew that his letter would be inspected by the elves. So, he had an asura write the hidden message with dragon prana, making it readable only to asuras with the inner eye.
The message was short, "Needs Motivation: Become Heroes."
"Of course, it\'s not just that. If I\'m not mistaken, it\'s related to the advancement of their constellation level after Level 6 Constellation Mage," Moku shook his head.
"Hmm? But isn\'t the constellation level only up to Level 6 Constellation Mage?" Nevare asked, confused.
"No, that\'s incorrect. Maybe what\'s known to the general public like you are only up to Level 6 Constellation Mage. But I have fought against Level 5 Constellation Mage and have also seen Level 6 Constellation Mage. However, the aura of power given by Stent Gaht is far greater than all of them combined. It\'s like comparing an ant to a sperm whale," Moku explained.
Although he had only seen Stent Gaht from a distance, he had witnessed its true form. At that time, he was investigating the Quadruple Arachnid\'s nest. Even in his Mind Body form, Moku felt immense fear.
It was as if approaching Stent Gaht any closer would cause his body to evaporate like dewdrops on the sun. That\'s how vast the difference in power was. He had never felt such fear towards anyone else in the vicinity of Stent Gaht.
Even among them, there were those stronger than Raiden The Necromancer. However, at that moment, Moku only thought that he could defeat them after he went through his fourth evolution gate.
However, to stand a chance against Stent Gaht, Moku didn\'t know which evolution gate he needed to pass through. Perhaps only by becoming a Spiritual Being could he achieve that. But what powers he would gain and what kind of world he would see after becoming a Spiritual Being, Moku couldn\'t even imagine.
"So, we\'ll let Ez become a double agent and pretend to lead a rebellion in Wilwatikta Kingdom while absorbing all the resources he can from the Elf Alliance? Isn\'t this too dangerous?" Nerphyl asked, furrowing her brow.
Moku walked towards a furry chair in front of the pool and sat down. Nevare walked towards him and sat on his lap. Nezena sat beside Moku, resting her head on his shoulder. Nerphyl sat on the floor in front of Moku\'s right foot. Nedira sat beside Nerphyl. Nash stood behind Moku\'s chair.
As he watched his other wives enjoying themselves, swimming naked in the pool, Moku rested his chin on his hands. He looked completely relaxed with his family. His hand didn\'t forget to caress his wife\'s soft waist.
"To get tiger cubs, we have no choice but to enter the tiger\'s den. Although there\'s a risk that Ez might betray us, we have no other option but to trust him. Right now, we need time to develop and grow," Moku replied.
Nerphyl nodded while massaging Moku\'s feet. Nedira twirled her long hair. Nezena began to close her eyes, feeling peaceful. Nevare started to snore, already dozing off.
"If we manage to secure the elves, next will be the humans, right?" Nedira asked.
Moku nodded, "Hmm... What do you both think of Nevare\'s plan?"
Nerphyl shook her head, "I don\'t know. But I think it\'s too dangerous for Sister Nevare. She\'ll have to be inside the enemy\'s camp for a long time. Many things could happen during that period."
"I think it\'s a good idea. That way, we can infiltrate the human species under their own noses. Although it\'s dangerous, I trust Sister Nevare\'s abilities," Nedira said.
Nash furrowed his brow, "I disagree with Mother\'s idea. It\'s too dangerous, and I won\'t be able to help her if something happens," he said, clearly worried in his voice.
Nevare opened her eyes, "Since when do I need your protection? Don\'t be arrogant just because you\'ve barely passed through your second evolution gate, young man. When you were still in my womb, I fought fierce monsters beyond your imagination."
"Ughh..."
Nedira and Nerphyl laughed, waking up Nezena, who was almost dozing off. Moku smiled and kissed his wife\'s wrinkled forehead before planting kisses on her eyes and nose. Then they both got lost in a long, passionate kiss.
"Can you not do that in front of me?" Nash asked, unsure where to look.
Nezena chuckled, "Hehehe... Nash, now you know how I felt when you told me about your first night with your wife?"
"Hey, I already apologized for that!"
Laughter once again echoed in the place. It was a place specially designed by Moku and the goblins at his request.
Moku fondly named this place "Family Haven," where he could gather all his wives and children to come together in warmth and camaraderie.
At the heart of the Family Haven lay a grand swimming pool, providing the family with refreshments and joy. Surrounding the pool, beautiful flower gardens were meticulously tended, adding a touch of natural charm and filling the air with a delightful fragrance. Rows of chairs, crafted from the finest quality feathers, were neatly arranged facing the pool. At one end of the pool, a special oversized chair stood, reserved exclusively for Moku, granting him a sweeping view of the entire Family Haven.
Taking his seat in the special chair, Moku gazed lovingly and proudly at his wives engaged in lively conversations, sharing stories and happiness. His children played gleefully, their laughter resonating throughout the room with sheer delight. Behind every glance, love and warmth radiated, binding them together as a harmonious and supportive family.
The serving goblins walked over to bring them cold drinks and some snacks. Their Family Haven was brimming with laughter, meaningful conversations, and cherished moments that would be treasured forever.
While he was relaxing, a message from Pandava rang in his head. He turned to the West Gate, facing directly towards the Human Alliance territory. Then, he looked back at Nevare, who had closed her eyes again.
Breathing in the sweet scent of his wife\'s silver hair, Moku whispered, "They have arrived."
Nevare didn\'t open her eyes, merely hugging Moku tighter and murmuring, "Hmm."
