Chapter 1791: Chapter 1119: Mia and the History with the Moon Chaser Clan_2 Chapter 1791: Chapter 1119: Mia and the History with the Moon Chaser Clan_2 “Your Highness, everything began three hundred years ago when the Moon Chaser Clan was expelled from the Coldflame Kingdom.”

Mia, clutching the white porcelain tea cup in her hands, began to narrate.

Through Mia’s description, Leo Ray learned that,
after the Moon Chaser Clan was forced to leave their territory located between the Northern Territory and the Central region of Coldflame,
they braved the howling winds and blizzards, traveling north through the Hundred Ranges, and finally settled at the foot of a snow mountain in the Outer Region.

Although it was located at the foot of the endless snow-capped mountains, the lower altitude made the temperature suitable, and dense forests surrounded the area.

With abundant water flowing down from the snow mountains, and no powerful Demon Beasts or other races in residence, it truly was an excellent new homeland.

“Not to conceal from Your Highness, I was born at the foot of the snow mountain. Since childhood, I have lived and honed extraordinary archery skills there, and I’m also very adept at Illusion Techniques. I was taught everything by the Illusion Techniques powerhouses of our clan, which is how I acquired my current expertise.”

Mia’s starry eyes were misty, evidently immersed in memories.

“In the century before I reached adulthood, everything was exceedingly peaceful.”

“Since settling here from the beginning, after decades, our clansmen built a Half-Elf city and several Half-Elf villages in the vast forests. We tirelessly cultivated fields and raised animals like Frost Sheep, leading a pleasant and self-sufficient life.”

“My aunt once said that, although she renounced her identity as a Duke of Coldflame and no longer served the Coldflame Kingdom, our people were no longer under the protection of the Coldflame Royal Family. Yet, if we could continue living here in peace, it would also not be a bad outcome.”

Listening to Mia, not only Leo Ray, but also Alisha, Olivia, and Scarlett by his side couldn’t help but widen their eyes.

Mia’s aunt was once a Duke of Coldflame; wouldn’t that make her the leader of the Moon Chaser Clan?

“If I remember correctly, the last Duke of the Moon Chaser Clan was one of the Dragon Slayers’ Nine Heroes, the Half-Elf Arrow God Qiduo. Mia, does that mean your aunt is one of those renowned Nine Dragon-slaying Heroes known across the Human various countries?”

Elusa’s slender pointed ears twitched, her face full of astonishment.

“Indeed, it’s a pity that my Talent is mediocre. At nearly one hundred and twenty, I’ve only reached the level of Tier 4 Seven Stars, whereas my aunt at this age had already reached the level of a Tie 5 Powerhouse.”

Mia shook her head helplessly, replying truthfully.

Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.

Qi Duo is Iris Winters’ niece, and Mia is Qi Duo’s niece; even though it sounds complicated, Mia bearing a resemblance to Iris Winters couldn’t be more normal.

“Mia, what happened afterward?”

Leo Ray furrowed his brows and continued to inquire.

“Your Highness, later on, a massive Jackalman tribe also migrated to the base of the snow mountain. It was said that they had unceasing conflict with the Pars Empire, and in order to recuperate and multiply, they moved.”

Mia set down the tea cup in her hands and replied, “As the saying goes, a single mountain cannot harbor two tigers, and so, an unavoidable friction developed between our Moon Chaser Clan and them.”

Through Mia’s subsequent description, Leo Ray learned more.

The friction between the two parties lasted for over a decade. Although there were wins and losses on both sides, the Jackalmans, who were naturally sly and savage, and reproduced rapidly, eventually caused endless hunting and environmental destruction due to their rapid population growth.

In the end, with no other choice left, the Moon Chaser Clan had to leave once again.

After all, the usual lifespan of Half-elves is 500 years, and Tie 5 Powerhouse could even reach 1000 years, so their reproduction rate was comparatively limited.

Whereas the Jackalmans only live for several decades, naturally cultivating from birth, and they had no shortage of High-Order Strong Ones. The situation was self-evident.

“After leaving our new homeland where we lived for nearly three hundred years, we continued northward along the snow mountain and unexpectedly discovered an abandoned grand mystical city amidst the Dense Forest on the other side of the mountain.”

“Although this grand, mysterious city was covered in green moss and overrun by vines to the point of disrepair, the City Wall was intact, and most of the buildings inside were still inhabitable. For us, who longed for a new home, this was undeniably a blessing!”

Mia’s voice revealed a hint of excitement as she continued to describe.

“In after discussing with my aunt and the elders, we settled down in this mystical city, beginning to build our new home.”

“The city spans a vast area and has complete infrastructure. There’s even a magical river that circulates on its own, providing us with an abundant water supply. We could even till the land and farm Frost Sheep right within the city.”

“Plus, with the food we’ve stockpiled, it’s more than enough for nearly two hundred thousand of us Half-elves to start a rich and safe new life.”

“But just when everything was getting back on track, this mystical city suddenly vanished without a trace.”

As she spoke, Mia’s voice grew subdued.

“Because I was outside the city on a solo training mission, I was fortunate to survive the disaster. By the time I returned, the entire city had disappeared into thin air within the forest.”

“In the empty, desolate forest, only the last magic communication left by my aunt echoed repeatedly, saying they, along with the whole city, were trapped in a mysterious blue space, and instructed me to seek help from the Human various countries, at the very least, from a magician or a space manipulator who is a Tier 5 Powerhouse.”

“After all, my aunt herself is a formidable Tier 5 Peak Expert, and many of the elders are at the peak level of the fourth order, yet they still couldn’t escape.”

Having heard this from Mia, Leo Ray gently stroked his chin, gaining a rough understanding of the whole situation.

After a moment of contemplation, Leo Ray inquired, “Mia, so, you became a mercenary in the hopes of earning Gold Dragons to find assistance and go back to rescue your clan members?”

“Indeed, your Highness.”

Mia nodded vigorously, her starry eyes filling with a sense of helplessness.

“After arriving in the Grimm Kingdom, it took quite some inquiries to learn that hiring a Tier 5 Powerhouse requires a lot of Gold Dragons. But I had nothing, so I registered as a mercenary, searching for news of such strong beings while trying to make money.”

“But I had never been to the Human Domain before, and initially wasted a lot of time; I was often deceived too…”

Looking at Mia’s helpless expression, Leo Ray couldn’t help but feel touched.

No wonder Mia tried so hard to disguise herself; it seemed she had been frightened by the Human Clan’s malevolence.

It’s unsurprising, really. Compared to the orderly and simple society of the Half-elves, the Human Domain is indeed a tough adjustment.

“It’s hard to imagine what sorrows Mia has endured over these past three months.”

With this thought, Leo Ray gently patted her slightly trembling shoulder, offering silent comfort.

“Mia, then why didn’t you return to the Coldflame Kingdom and ask the Royal Family for help?”

Elusa sat next to the Half-Elf Girl and asked with a frown.

“When I arrived in the Coldflame Kingdom, it had already been mired in a power struggle. And as a mere lowly mercenary, how could I possibly gain an audience with the Royal Family?”

Mia lowered her head, her pointed ears sagging along.

“After meeting Her Majesty the Queen and Royal Highness Prince, I was overjoyed, and I intended to speak up. But seeing both Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince so busy, I didn’t know how to broach the subject.”

“After all, both Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince have been preoccupied with war efforts, and now with the volatile situation around Coldflame Kingdom, a life-and-death Battle of Annihilation could break out at any moment. How could they care for our long-exiled and forsaken tribe?”

As she spoke, Mia’s eyes reddened, and she was on the verge of tears.

While the clan’s food reserves were substantial, they were only enough to meet the basic survival needs of 200,000 people for three months, and the plants they were cultivating were ordinary and couldn’t grow in other spaces.

In other words, the clan’s situation was now hanging by a thread.

After listening to the Half-Elf Girl’s story, Leo Ray simply smiled and responded, “Mia, you are wrong. It is precisely because of this that I will help you, to add a new strength to the Coldflame Kingdom.”
