Roya turned his gaze to Ashbell and asked, "Is this enough? I avoided stabbing her in a vital spot with this sword; she shouldn't die."
If an ordinary spirit user were to be struck by this sword, they would most likely be dead.
But just as people cannot be compared, the difference between elf users is as vast as the difference between clouds and mud.
The fact that Ashbell, with his physical abilities, was still alive even after taking a full set of Sun Breathing techniques, shows that his slender figure conceals terrifying power.
Restia nodded, reached out and stroked Ashbell's cheek. The black mist dissipated, and Roya was also taking a serious look at the girl in front of him for the first time.
With fair skin, her delicate face occasionally flashed with pain, but the girl's outstanding appearance was still evident.
Esther's voice came through, saying to the two of them, "That's about it."
Restia nodded and then turned her gaze to Roya, her beautiful face becoming serious.
With her long black hair cascading down her waist, Restia reached out to grasp Roya's hand, but Roya dodged it.
Restia showed no embarrassment and continued, "I will give you the power of the Demon King. With your strength, even the power of the Demon King cannot corrupt your mind."
Roya frowned as he looked at Restia. The Demon King's power sounded very tempting, but Ashbell's appearance made Roya somewhat worried.
If the price of gaining this power is to lose one's mind, then Roya doesn't need it.
Seemingly sensing what Roya was thinking, Restia explained again, "I already said, Lian didn't have any problems."
Seeing Roya's disbelieving look, Restia paused and added at the end, "With your strength, there shouldn't be any problem. You are a powerful spirit user."
Roya nodded in agreement. He acknowledged the power of the fog, but in reality, it had little effect on him.
Chapter 215 The Dark Elf King
However, Roya asked the most crucial question: "Why me? What benefits can I bring you?"
There is no love without a reason in this world, nor is there any such thing as a free lunch. Roya does not believe that Restia is being kind-hearted. Either Restia has other intentions, or her so-called Demon King status is indeed problematic.
Silence, long silence.
This time, Restia did not answer immediately. Only when the thick fog was about to dissipate did she say to Roya, "I am a dark elf, you know that, right?"
Roya nodded.
Restia began to recount a secret, a secret unknown to everyone.
"This world doesn't only have five Elf Kings. The five Elf Kings that you humans recorded in your books are: the warrior wielding a burning sword—the Fire Elf King Volcanics; the gentle-eyed youth—the Wind Elf King Bellfahle; the giant wielding an iron hammer—the Earth Elf King Rod Gear; the woman holding a water bottle to her chest—the Water Elf King Iseria Seaward; and the old man holding scales and a staff—the Holy Elf King Alexandros. Am I right?"
Luo Ya nodded. This was indeed information that Luo Ya had obtained from the book, and it was also the content recorded in most books.
The authenticity of the content is indeed worth considering, after all, whether any human has ever seen these five Elf Kings is also worth examining.
But one thing is certain: there are only five Elf Kings in this world.
Restia explained, "Putting aside the truth of this information, there were actually six Elf Kings a long, long time ago, the last of whom was the Dark Elf King."
Upon hearing this, Roya looked at Restia with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
There were originally six Elf Kings, but the book only records five. As for the last one, there's no need to say more.
He vaguely guessed what was going on, but his face remained impassive as he continued to ask, "And then?"
Restia sighed, her delicate face becoming dazed, as if she were recalling the past.
Restia began, “Initially, the spirits of light and darkness were born. After the power of these two spirits covered the entire world, the spirits of fire, water, wind, and earth were born. The primordial elemental spirits had not yet developed their own will; they were merely components that brought order to the chaotic world. The sky and the earth separated, mountains rose, rivers were born, and forests spread. Every corner was inhabited by the power of the spirits, and finally, the world was filled with countless lives. Giants from the sea, herd animals, magical beasts, dragons, giants, and the elves who became the ancestors of the Elfim and humans. Under the control of the spirits' power, this place became a paradise filled with harmony and order.”
"The master is the Dark Elf King, the strongest Elf King. The master possesses immense power, a power that allows her to easily defeat and kill any Elf King she faces. Even three Elf Kings working together are no match for her. This power also instills fear in the other Elf Kings. This fear is like a seed planted in their hearts, and terror is the water that constantly nourishes the seed. When the seed grows and this fear and apprehension reach a limit, they decide to kill her together."
"The five Elf Kings formed an alliance under the leadership of the Holy King Alexandros. Together, they launched an attack on the Dark Elf King, attempting to annihilate her. This is the 'Elf War'."
"Six thousand years ago, the Elemental Spirit Realm was reduced to scorched earth by a great war between the spirits. After hundreds of years of war, the camp of the 'Five Great Spirit Kings' finally emerged victorious. The camps in the war were the camp of the Five Great Spirit Kings and the camp of the spirits who raised the banner of rebellion. The sixth spirit king, the Dark Spirit King, led the spirit camp against the Five Great Spirit Kings."
There's no need to elaborate on what happened next. Judging from the fact that there are only five Elf Kings in this world now, it's safe to say that the Dark Elf King is most likely dead.
Restia turned her gaze to Ren Ashbell, a look of regret on her face: 'Ren was actually the best successor. He met me at the right time. He has great talent and outstanding abilities, but unfortunately, he has been corrupted by the Darkness of Another Dimension. If he continues to control this power, he will eventually become a monstrous aggregate of resentment like Solomon.'
"For his sake, and for my sake as well, I have to give this power to someone who is strong and will not be devoured by it. I thought that this time I might not have a chance even if Lian went berserk, but then I saw you."
Roya remained silent, while Restia continued, "I don't know why you became an Elf Master. Lian was able to become an Elf Master because her master transferred his power into a human. In order to distract the Elf Kings, he would choose a male Elf Master. Logically speaking, you shouldn't have been able to become an Elf Master, but you not only became an Elf Master, but you are even more outstanding. To be honest, you surprised me."
"However, your appearance is truly a godsend, isn't it? I can sense the potential and power contained within your body, so ever since I learned of your existence, I've been thinking about whether I could give you this power. Now it seems that you are the most suitable holder of this power at this moment."
"So, this is a complete windfall, isn't it?"
Restia shifted her dark eyes from Ashbell to Roya.
To be honest, if what Restia said is true, Roya was indeed tempted.
No one ever feels that they have enough power. Of course, the more power the better, and Roya is no exception.
This power could greatly enhance Roya in a short period of time, and even Roya found it hard to resist the temptation before him.
He had witnessed the Demon King's power. Even though the Demon King's potential had not been fully realized, he could still unleash terrifying power similar to Ashbell. If he could obtain this power, his strength would not only undergo a dramatic transformation, but it would at least allow him to advance further.
Moreover, his next plan is to meet the Dragon God. Although Roya is very strong now, and can be considered top even in the Mushoku Tensei world, there is still a gap between top and top. If he encounters the Dragon God head-on, he will most likely be crushed by him.
But right now, can he withstand this force?
Luo Ya didn't know, but he remembered the dog system.

There are no changes on the skill panel, but there are actually many changes.
The skill panel can objectively reflect the skills that Roya has acquired, but words are ultimately just words.
Roya's gaze lingered between the skills Fool and Immaculate Body; to be honest, these were the two skills he relied on.
The Immaculate Body directly raises his potential to an extremely high level, while the Fool serves as the foundation.
Luo Ya asked the system, "System, can I inherit the power of the Dark Elf King?"
Luo Ya waited for the system's reply. The wait wasn't long; just a moment later, a cold electronic voice sounded in Luo Ya's mind: "Yes, the host's immaculate body has a strong resistance to erosion and curses. The Fool can also ensure that the host's spirit is not corrupted."
Hearing this, Luo Ya breathed a sigh of relief.
Before the weight was lifted, even though Luo Ya had some guesses in his heart and estimated that there should be no problem, he still had some worries. Only after receiving the system's affirmative answer did Luo Ya feel relieved.
The remaining task is to become the so-called successor to the Demon King.
Without further hesitation, Roya asked the most crucial question.
What do I need to do for you? What do you want?
Power cannot be obtained for no reason. Roya did not believe that Restia was a golden-finger old man from a fantasy novel. That was too far-fetched.
Roya would rather believe Restia is a wicked woman with ulterior motives than believe that she would give him this opportunity for free.
Restia glanced at Roya and continued, "What I want you to do is very simple: help me kill the Elf King. That's all I need you to do."
Luo Ya was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.
Roya was indeed amused by Restia, and Restia did not show any displeasure on her face, but simply looked at Roya quietly.
After Roya finished laughing, Restia slowly said, "This is a mission, the price for power. You gain great power, but you also have to fulfill her long-cherished wish. It's a deal, isn't it?"
Roya's smile gradually faded, his crimson-gold eyes staring directly at Restia as he coldly said, "Don't tell me you don't know what this means."
The Elf Kings are absolutely godlike beings in this world. The time when they appeared is unknown, but if we had to say, they existed in ancient times. They each control one of the five elements, and almost everything in nature is their power.
The Elf King is not merely a powerful elf, but the ruler of all elves in nature. If the Elf King is destroyed, the power of the elves will vanish from the continent.
