Tiffany woke up from her stupor, blinking her eyes and slowly scanning the iron cage she currently occupied.
The dim lighting didn't darken her vision, and she looked around to see what was happening to her.
Her gaze stopped at the unconscious Xora in the cage in front of her. "Xora… Xora!" Tiffany held the cage iron, "Ahhh!" she felt electric shock while holding the iron bars.
"Noisy!" shouted a guard with short stature and a long beard on his chin.
"Dwarves," Tiffany mumbled, hardening her jaw.
Not long after, Xora woke up from her stupor too, but she immediately rebelled to destroy the iron bars, but she could only wince in pain from being electrocuted from the iron bars she touched.
"You guys are too noisy, it's noisy when you serve the king later, hahaha." another midget guard chuckled.
"Hey damn midgets, what do you guys want?" Xora screamed even though her throat hurt from not drinking water all day.
"What are you saying? Repeat one more time." one of the guards pointed a homemade firearm at Xora.
"No, you want to make the King angry?" Another guard reminded.
Xora was silent as the Dwarf guard pointed a gun at her, her eyes now on Tiffany, who gave a look that meant to remain calm.
"If you're silent like this, you're so cute. Sigh later when you satisfy us." The guards looked at Xora lustfully, making Xora feel disgusted with them.
Tifanny and Xora stared at each other silently behind the iron barrier in front of them. From Tifanny's eyes, Xora understood that Tiffany gave a code to wait for an opportunity to escape from the iron bars that held them.
After they had been silent for a while, it was already night.
"Take her quickly. The King wants her." said a short guard commanding his men.
One unlocks Tiffany's shortage, and the other 7 Dwarves enter to chain Tiffany so she can't escape.
Tiffany had time to fight, but unfortunately, her Dagger had already been taken when she fainted earlier.
Tiffany was forced to follow them to where the Dwarf King was. Tiffany cursed the Dwarf Race in her heart for daring to treat her like a slave.
Not long after, they had arrived before the Dwarf King. Tiffany knelt before the Dwarf King, sitting on his throne accompanied by several human enslaved people.
The Dwarf King smirked at Tiffany, who looked confused. "Long time no see, Yuchicato Tsui Tiffany. Hmmm, or Her Majesty the Elves Queen."
"Reigor." Tiffany clenched her jaws, looking at the Dwarf King with a murderous gaze.
"Hahaha, I like that look, I haven't had a look like that in a long time." Reigor tilted his head in thought. "It's been a long time since that damn Roger took all my Elf slaves." Reigor threw a golden glass of wine at Tiffany.
"Rogers?" said Tiffany, her head already wet with the wine Reigor threw.
"That damn human dared to betray me, he took all my slaves and my Bravier Sword Artifact. You have to pay for it!" Reigor pointed at Tiffany.
"What does that have to do with me, bastard?" Tiffany replied to Reigor with a sharp glare.
"What is the relation? It's obvious he's your husband. In order to get your forgiveness, he betrayed me."
Tiffany looked surprised to hear Reigor's words; there was no way Roger would do that. All she knew was Roger had betrayed her and allied herself with the Dwarf Race.
"Don't brag, in his last breath he didn't say what you said." Tiffany raised her voice.
Roger narrowed his eyes. "You killed Roger?" asked Reigor, and then he laughed. "Good, good. I don't have to get my hands dirty."
"Foolish wife, doesn't want to listen to her husband's explanation." Reigor chuckled at Tiffany's stupidity. He knew Roger would succumb to Tiffany. If not, how could Roger die at the hands of Tiffany.
Roger is not just a human. And Roger is a human who has made a promise to the Elf Fairy so that Roger can live a long life.
Because of Roger's mistake against Tiffany, Roger brought all the Elf enslaved people from the Dwarf Kingdom and freed them.
The collapse of the Elves Kingdom was not the result of Roger's betrayal. Rather the envy of the Elf Elder himself.
Roger knew of the Elf Elder's rotten plan, so he allied with the Human Nobles, the Dwarf Race, and the Dark Elf Race. Initially, Roger only wanted to get rid of the Elf Elders who wanted to usurp Tiffany's throne, but who would have thought that the Dwarf Race and the Dark Elf Race had other goals to destroy the High-Elf Race.
When the High-Elf Race was on the verge of collapse, Roger again asked the human nobles for help, but they didn't want anything to do with Roger anymore.
Finally, it revealed everything, the mastermind behind the collapse of the Elves Kingdom was only Roger. It makes Roger accept the bitterness that Tiffany hates him for life.
Reigor laughed loudly as he watched Tiffany fall silent. "Take her to clean. I don't want to touch her dirty body now," said Reigor to his men.
They forcibly dragged Tiffany out of the Dwarf King's throne room, and Tiffany didn't resist the Dwarves dragging her at all. Her eyes looked blank after hearing the explanation from the Dwarf King.
As some Dwarves dragged Tiffany.
Duaarr… Duarrr.
"Dragon! Dragon!" The screams outside sent the Dwarves in the palace out.
They even left Tiffany sitting on the floor, her eyes staring blankly ahead.
Reigor also came out of his throne and stood on the balcony of the Palace, watching what was happening outside the palace.
Reigor couldn't help but be surprised to see a Dragon fly around his Kingdom and spit out Black Flames.

"Ladies."
Xora, lying on the floor waiting for bad luck to come to her, woke up hearing someone calling her.
"Mr Ril?"
Ril held the iron bars and began to pull the iron rod until it bent, making the iron pillar stretch. Xora was surprised to see Ril able to hold the iron bars without getting hurt. Xora didn't squander the opportunity and went straight out of the gap Ril had created.
"Thank you sir."
Rill nodded his head. "We have to go first, we will wait for them on the ship."
Xora only obeyed Ril, and she knew that the people Ril meant were Emilio and Dullahan. As they walked out, Xora paused to see Tiffany's two Dagger blades. She took them and immediately followed Ril.

"Tifanny"
Tifanny didn't answer the call from Dullahan at all, and she didn't even turn around.
Dullahan approached Tiffany and felt tightness in his chest, seeing Tiffany's apprehensive condition. Her entire beautiful skin was full of cuts and abrasions.
"Hey, where did you come from?" Reigor shouted. When he wanted to re-enter the Palace, there was someone who looked like a Human Empire Soldier.
The Dullahan stared at Reigor flatly. "Did you make it like this?" although the look on Dullahan's face was very flat, his eyes were filled with blazing fire.
"I can do anything to my slaves," Reigor replied, raising his voice.
Whoosh…
The Dullahan immediately lunged at Reigor without further ado, but unfortunately, Reigor managed to dodge the Dullahan's attack causing the Palace floor to crack hugely.
Reigor didn't mince words either, and he took Greataxe from the small Portal that appeared next to him.
Sring… Sring…
Reigor's Greataxe and Greartword's were clashing noisily where they were fighting.
Sring…
Reigor endured the slash that Dullahan threw. Despite being able to withstand it, Reigor had time to kneel because the pressure from the Dullahan's attack was intense.
Reigor backed away from the Dullahan. "Help me!" Reigor shouted to the rest of his men.
Only a dozen or so Dwarves came, and many Dwarves were outside because of the riots caused by Emilio.
The dozens of Dwarves pointed their homemade long-barreled weapons.
Dorr… Dorr…
The bullets fired by the gunpowder explosion from their weapons rushed towards Dullahan. However, the bullet stopped before hitting the Dullahan. The bullet floated in its trajectory, not moving at all.
Tap… tap…
Reinhardt strolled towards those standing, and they couldn't move at all because they felt a terrifying aura emanating from Reinhardt.
Reigor, who couldn't move, was already covered in sweat on his forehead.
Reinhard looked at Tiffany for a moment, then turned to Reigor. "You ruined my lover's." The cold words from Reinhard's mouth made the Dwarves stiffen.
Reigor, who couldn't move, could only gulp heavily, then he turned quickly towards the pitch black aura he felt.
"B-Bravier Sw-sword." Reigor stammered, seeing the Bravier Sword Artifact covered in darkness in the Dullahan's hand.
Slash...
Dullahan quickly slashed Reigor in the head down.
Reigor was torn into two parts. His crown of Ruby split apart due to the Dullahan's powerful slash. The other Dwarves immediately shivered at the sight of their King tragically dying.
Reinhardt let out a chuckle before he waved his hand at the remaining Dwarves to pieces.
"Let's go back, my lover is waiting." Reinhard spoke sternly to Dullahan.
Dullahan moved closer to Tiffany, and it broke his heart to see Tiffany lose her subconscious. He carried Tiffany bridal style before they left the kingdom, almost completely burned by Emilio's black flames.
