Unbeknownst to the remaining members of the Naughty Elves Organization, the comrades they have sent to conduct an investigation have already been killed by the Royal Magical Knights and the allies of the Evergreen Royal Family. As of now, it’s their comrades that had remained in the spectator’s stand who are being killed one by one. 

The staff, Magical Knights, and the allies of the Evergreen Royal Family cooperated with each other seamlessly as they slowly cleared the entire Victory Arena from any hidden members of the Naughty Elves Organization. It started from the north before spreading into both east and west, and then eventually, they slowly made their way to the south. 

At the end, when the remaining members of the Naughty Elves noticed what exactly was going on, it was already too late for them to do anything. Soon after, one of the people from the alliance of the Evergreen Royal Family arrived in front of them and didn’t hesitate to kill them.

After half an hour, the Victory Arena was finally cleared of any members of the Naughty Elves Organization. And the best part of this was that there was not even a single casualty from both the ordinary people’s side and the side of the alliance of the Evergreen Royal Family.

Despite such good news, though, no one celebrated yet because the majority of the uninvolved people were feeling afraid. None of them even dared to move in fear that they would be killed next.

But that didn’t take long since some of the people from the Evergreen Royal Family alliance were already explaining things while the mess was still going on. As such, not long after the problem was solved, the people started gradually calming down.

Regardless, Seventh Prince Elmont, Princess Tifa, and Princess Tila didn’t waste any time and started explaining again what just happened to everyone in order to completely clear things up and avoid any misunderstanding.

“Everyone, what you have witnessed just now is our allies killing the members of the Naughty Elves Organization who were hiding amongst all of you,” Elmont explained.

Princess Tifa continued, “Rest assured, we have already eliminated all of them, so there’s no longer any danger left around us in the Victory Arena,”

“That’s correct. Through the combined effort of our Royal Magical Knights, staff of the Victory Arena, and some allies of the Evergreen Royal Family, we were able to entirely prevent whatever the Naughty Elves Organization was planning on doing in this place,” Princess Tila added. 

Evidently, the main reason that no one revealed what exactly the plan of the Naughty Elves Organization was to the ordinary people is so that they can prevent them from panicking again. After all, no one would feel safe staying in a place where bombs were said to be planted. There’s no doubt that they will insist on leaving after hearing that what the members of the Naughty Elves Organization were planning on doing was to blow this place to smithereens. 

Honestly speaking, if this was any ordinary time, allowing the ordinary people to leave the Victory Arena is not much of a problem. As a matter of fact, they would be able to come and go as they please.

However, because of the threat of the Constellation-level Magical Beast approaching the Emerald Tree Kingdom, it is in the best interest of everyone to stay in this place, where they can be protected by the Defensive Magic Arrays installed around the Victory Arena.

Although that doesn’t completely guarantee their safety yet. At the very least, everyone in the Victory Arena could be slightly secured by the danger of the Constellation-level Magical Beast. And perhaps, buy enough time for themselves to think of another way to escape and remain alive.

But before any of that, it was time to continue with the main show in the Victory Arena. After all, it isn’t safe for them yet to get out of this place since there’s no telling whether there are really no members of the Naughty Elves Organization outside. 

Elmont, Princess Tila, and Princess Tifa continued pacifying the ordinary people for tens of minutes, assuring them that the Victory Arena was safe and that they shouldn’t leave this place without someone outside telling them that it was safe for them to leave. They used the Defensive Magic Array installed in the Victory Arena as an assurance and a way to persuade everyone that this place is indeed the safest area to stay right now, instead of going outside, where things aren’t clear for anyone yet. Obviously, it is just a lie that they have to say to make everyone believe that they are speaking the truth.

At the same time, the staff started cleaning up the mess they had caused just now. There’s no way that the people would completely calm down with dead bodies from the members of the Naughty Elves Organization still lying down nearby them. It is best to clean them all before continuing with the Battle Competition.

Not long after, everything was finally back to normal.

“Everyone, let’s give our heroes who saved us a warm round of applause to express our gratitude and appreciation,” Elmont said before starting to clap his hands first.

Elmont’s clapping was quickly followed by Princess Tifa and Princess Tila, then the teams who participated in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, before eventually, the spectators followed along.

“Now that we have temporarily sent aside the interruption caused by our unwanted, let’s continue with the long-awaited Battle…… Royal……!” Elmont announced excitedly. 

This time, the people’s cheer became even more apparent compared to when they were congratulating the heroes who saved their life.

“I didn’t expect that this would be the cherry that we needed on top of our cupcake,” Elmont said before letting out a chuckle.

“This is great! Then let’s continue with the main show,” Princess Tifa felt delighted, seeing that everyone’s fear had slightly subsided after hearing the start of the Battle Royal.

“Let’s use this last battle to completely distract everyone and take their attention away from the Naughty Elves Organization. In the meantime, tell some of our men to report what happened here and let them ask for updates in the current situation in the Emerald City,” Princess Tila muttered.

“Sister Tifa, that would be your responsibility,” Elmont didn’t hesitate to pass the responsibility to his sister.

“Me? But what about you?” Princess Tifa grumbled.

“As you can see, brother Leo, Osborne, and Edgar Pierce need me here,” Elmont replied before slowly landing on the stage.

“Tch! He clearly just wants to approach his girlfriend,” Princess Tifa coldly harrumph.

“Just leave him be since it’s quite rare to see our brother paying his attention to something else other than fighting,” Princess Tila comforted her sister. She tapped her back and continued, “Go now, so that father and mother won’t have to continue worrying about us anymore. And also, so that we can start preparing for an evacuation plan in case things would really turn for the worst,”

“Alright,” Princess Tifa nodded her head. Afterward, she started hovering down and made her way to the control room.

While that was happening, Elmont had already landed on the stage and is currently approaching brother Leo.

“That thing you did there back there, brother Loki, really saved all of us from danger,” Elmont said as he pulled Leo to his embrace. He continued, “Without your help, this wouldn’t have been possible,”

“You overestimate me,” Leo quickly pulled himself away from the hug.

“Maybe you meant I underestimate you, hahaha,” Elmont let out a soft chuckle. After a short moment, he stopped and turned serious, “I know that you have used some kind of ability, or let’s just call it a Magic spell, to know where the members of the Naughty Elves Organization were hiding just now. If you need to rest for a bit to recuperate your stamina and energy, or maybe your Mana, don’t hesitate to tell me. I will do my best to delay the start of the Battle Royal so that you can get enough rest. Just to be clear, I am not being biased here. This is just what you deserved after providing such huge support to us… No! To all of us!”

“It would be too much trouble for you if I really ask you to do that for me. And besides, it’s not exactly what you are thinking. What I did just now was quite simple, and it didn’t require that much effort to achieve,” Leo assured Elmont that he was fine. He added, “Let’s just start with the Battle Royal as soon as possible so that we can put an end to the Emerald Elven Battle Competition. After that, we can proceed with the rest of the plans that we have prepared back then during the meeting,”

“If that is what you want, then let’s start with the Battle Royal,” Elmont nodded his head. He gave a short greeting to Osborne and Edgar Pierce before walking towards Selina, who was the real reason he went down on the stage.. As to what they are going to talk about, that would be something that only the two know.
