Chapter 71 : Deep Hatred

Elashia organized her thoughts and said to Aelia:

"Everything you've mentioned, I've also understood through previous investigations."

Aelia nodded silently.

Although she had dealt with goblins her entire life, the information she possessed still couldn't compare with that of a nation.

Elashia continued:

"Moreover, I also possess intelligence that you don't know about."

Elashia said with a serious expression:

"Goblins from various regions are now gathering toward the Chak Mountain Range, not far from Radiant Emperor City."

"According to my estimation, there are now at least tens of thousands of goblins entrenched in that mountain range. Once Radiant Emperor City's forces are depleted, they may very well directly attack the city!"

"What!"

Even Aelia, who had always been considered by people as someone who liked to exaggerate the goblin threat, found this somewhat unbelievable.

"Your Majesty is saying that not only is the [Goblin Emperor] in the distance, but even the nearby mountain range is full of danger?"

Elashia nodded seriously.

In the game, the Elasia Empire, busy dealing with the magical beast tide and having empty forces in the imperial capital, had fallen under goblin siege like this.

First caught off guard by goblins suddenly pouring out from the Chak Mountain Range, then directly conquered by the goblin armies from all over the country that arrived immediately after.

Now, to ensure no worries during the magical beast tide that would require mobilizing the entire nation's strength for defense, Elashia had to eliminate all these unstable factors.

"So, I need your help."

"As you know, these goblins are entrenched in caves deep in the mountains. If soldiers who know nothing about goblins are sent directly in for subjugation, I'm afraid it will cause massive unnecessary casualties, and the efficiency will be quite low."

"Therefore, I plan to hire you as an instructor for the goblin countermeasure unit of the soon-to-be-established Elasia Imperial Guard. Are you willing?"

Looking at the girl on the throne with an extremely serious expression, Aelia's thoughts couldn't help but return to the nights after each battle in the past.

Every day after finishing goblin subjugation, she would return to the village, wiping her weapons while summarizing the day's combat experience.

Sometimes, she would also wonder whether what she was doing had any meaning.

Her individual strength was ultimately limited. No matter how diligently she killed, she could never eliminate every single goblin in the world.

And now, she could finally answer: all of this was meaningful!

During years of goblin subjugation, the experience she had accumulated could immediately be replicated in the Imperial Guard, then quickly exert a thousand times more effect than before!

"Hahahaha......"

Elashia's question made the normally expressionless Aelia let out somewhat maniacal laughter.

"Your Majesty! I've been waiting for this day!"

Aelia solemnly removed the rust-stained helmet from her head.

The woman's red hair cascaded behind her like a waterfall, and those somewhat bloodshot eyes revealed a fanaticism so intense it could almost become tangible.

Looking at Aelia with her helmet removed, Elashia was somewhat surprised while also truly feeling emotional.

Why would such a beautiful girl want to wrap herself up like an iron can every day?

"Your Majesty! Please let me start work immediately! I don't want wages, I don't want benefits! I only ask that you let me start work quickly!"

Looking at Aelia, who was so anxious she seemed somewhat maniacal, Elashia showed a somewhat helpless smile.

Aelia's hatred toward goblins was too deep—so deep that she had almost become somewhat twisted as a person.
