Academic gathering with a lich-Chapter 872 - 811: Yesterday’s Illusion

In the perception of the Elf Elder, a black beast pounced towards Faelga, then the black tar-like monster exploded, with two people jumping out from it. The person in black armor held the woman in his arms, and the familiar aura allowed the elders to lower their guard as they approached. They quickly accepted the change.

The First Elder took Irason from Susanna’s arms, glanced at the Green Dragon Priest in his hands, and tossed her to his brother. He turned and touched Susanna’s tall armor, his face turning from pale to red rapidly, covering his unease with a roar as he admonished Susanna: "I have told you to always be careful, Faelga! What have you done to yourself! You ripped your soul in half? And you expelled the flawed part? I taught you to view your inner self and its flaws correctly."

In the Second Elder’s arms, Irason didn’t stay long. The woman was handed over to the Third Elder, and the Second Elder focused Druid Spells’ healing power into the interior of the black armor. His expression was somewhat solemn as he spoke worriedly: "Soul splitting is very dangerous, Faelga, do you feel any discomfort in your body? Don’t rush, first patiently feel it out. Is there any error in your thinking, any blurriness in your memories? Be careful, there are cases where, even if one seems normal in dreams, they return to reality as an idiot. Let me check."

The Third Elder, seeing his siblings surrounding Susanna left and right, could only exchange glances with Irason in his arms, staring blankly with big eyes at each other. The woman in his arms had a simple gaze, like a gentle deer, oh no, the more he looked, the more he felt that she seemed a bit foolish, like a silly roe deer.

Susanna was under the scrutiny of the elders, feeling somewhat at a loss. Her inner turmoil was apparent, yet her muscle memory acted normally in front of her foster father. Receiving rebukes and care, this feeling was a bit strange, yet somewhat warm.

"I am Susanna." The helmet made her voice thick, the cold tone was no different from that of the former queen. The Elf Elder understood the meaning of [Susanna], it was the name given to Faelga’s deceased sister.

"That is to say..." The three Elders turned their heads in unison, their gaze shifting to the mysterious woman in front of the Third Elder, "this is the true entity of Faelga." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Irason, expressionless, made a scissor gesture with her fingers, "Yeah."

With a thud, landing on her bottom, "Ouch!" the Green Dragon Priest rubbed her buttocks, looking at the Third Elder with confusion.

"Sorry, I never imagined Faelga would do such a thing, it was quite chilling for a moment." Finally, it was Susanna who helped Irason up. She removed her armor, and the two identical figures stood before the Elf Elder.

"I’ve encountered a bit of an accident, my soul was wounded and had to be split into two. She is Susanna, and I am Irason." The Green Dragon Priest cheerfully explained to her foster fathers the result of the daughter splitting into two.

"How are we going to explain to the citizens that their queen has split?"

"Use a prophecy, I had thought through everything before the split," Irason boasted about Faelga’s plan, "announce to the subjects that Susanna is the sister of Faelga, that other queen, her opposite. She will take charge of the Druid Elders’ Council, become the Elf Executive. Susanna does not have Dreamwalker’s talent, no aura of fear, no need for a spokesperson."

The First Elder stroked his beard, saying: "A queen of opposition, her authority needs to be established on the basis of ’defeating Faelga’, as long as you’re still here, Irason, Susanna’s authority will be greatly undermined, the people may not accept her, even if she is a part of you."

"Then just let ’Faelga’ disappear, wouldn’t that solve it?"

"Then who’s going to manage the Royal Court, the Elders’ Council can’t be above the queen, this is what you said yourself."

"Let my daughter Tiffany inherit the position of queen. Susanna becomes the Governor, controlling the Elders’ Council, Tiffany becomes the new Elf Queen, managing the royal family. And I will hide away, with or without me it makes no difference, as you can see, I am no longer as smart and dignified as before, to prevent Queen Faelga’s reputation from falling, I advise you better not let me interfere in politics. You can’t imagine what’s going through my mind."

"I want a vacation! I’ve worked hard for the Dream Elf my whole life, now I want to enjoy myself, leave politics to Susanna, Tiffany to Susanna, and I’m free! Hahaha!" Irason laughed loudly, her beautiful face twisting with desire, "Right, right, Daddy dear. Can you give me a nominal position, like, the fifth person among the Elven Four Elders, Fifth Elder Irason! From now on our positions will be equivalent, we’ll call each other father and daughter in private, and siblings in public, how about that!"

The angry First Elder grabbed the Green Dragon Priest by the neck, using his fist to ’drill a hole’ in her forehead.

"No respect! You little brat!!!"

"Ow, ow, ow!! Save me, Second Brother!! You’re the best, Second Brother!!" Irason appealed for help from offstage.

The Second Elder shook his head helplessly, saying to his elder brother: "Big brother, haven’t you eaten?"

"Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!!!"

Everyone returned to reality, the Fourth Elder arrived with Tiffany. Tiffany quickly identified her mother’s location with her eyes, which made Irason extremely happy, no longer embarrassed by recognizing the wrong entity. Irason knelt down, playfully pinching Tiffany’s chubby cheeks, and the little girl also giggled, thoroughly enjoying the frolic with her mother. She noticed Susanna’s figure and felt a familiar presence from the unfamiliar face.

"Mommy, who is this sister?"
