Alfalfa City is situated at the farthest southern end of the Half-Elf Kingdom.

Where the Crystal River and Angry River intersect and form a Y shape, they divide the city into three regions, resembling a clover leaf, hence the name Alfalfa City.

The strategic importance of Alfalfa City’s geographical location is self-evident, but strangely enough, this city is typically a “no man’s land”.

On second thought, it’s not hard to understand why this is so.

Precisely because of its strategic importance, the North Territory and East Territory want to annex it, but they worry about provoking each other. Therefore, they tacitly left it to the Half-Elf Kingdom as a neutral buffer zone that neither should touch.

As for the Half-Elf Kingdom, handling this city is a hot potato they dare not take on.

In this way, Alfalfa City has become particularly awkward.

It has no lords, no city defense force, and no order.

It gradually became a paradise for adventurers, a gathering place for refugees, and a carnival for anarchists.

Power has become the only passport in Alfalfa City.

However, Alfalfa City has suddenly quieted down today.

Even some big shots with considerable influence have kept down low, sternly warning their subordinates not to cause trouble these days.

That’s because several armies have suddenly stationed in the city, including the famous Dark Cavalry!

Though Alfalfa City has its fair share of lawless bandits and murderers, they are merely cockroaches and rats lurking in the shadows. Upon encountering real lions and tigers, they have to hide carefully; otherwise, they might get exterminated casually.

In the north of the city, the most majestic building is the Glorious Church.

In such a chaotic city, the Glorious Church is one of the few serene places.

Don’t assume that evil people won’t have faith. On the contrary, those who live by the sword, not knowing when they will die on the street, need spiritual support even more to prevent themselves from going mad.

When Colin walked into the main hall of the church, he saw the figure that had been on his mind – Queen Isa.

The queen was standing in front of the statue of the Lord of Glory, her head bowed in devout prayer.

Quickening his pace, Colin came to Queen Isa’s side.

After half a year, Queen Isa’s abdomen was already noticeably bulging.

A faint maternal radiance emanated from her, coupled with her noble and elegant queenly demeanor, making her even more irresistible.

Noticing Colin’s arrival, Queen Isa finished her prayer, turned her head, and gave him an enchanting smile, saying:

“I thought you would arrive later.”

“Knowing that you are waiting for me, of course I would travel day and night! Moreover, you should not underestimate the marching speed of the Dark Cavalry.”

Colin smiled as he came forward and carefully embraced Queen Isa. He captured her alluring lips, savoring the long-missed fragrance.

After the sweet moment, Queen Isa leaned on Colin’s chest and asked lazily, “Isn’t the meeting with the East Territory set for three days later?”

“Yes, I have sent envoys to the other side of the river to discuss the exchange of prisoners.”

With one hand circling Queen Isa’s waist and the other lightly stroking her raised belly, Colin’s hand soon began to wander higher.

Queen Isa huffed lightly, grabbed Colin’s mischievous hand, and chided, “This is a church!”

Colin looked down at the enticing white cleavage and felt his desire stirring but had to behave and asked:

“Would there be any problem with the food production of the Half-Elf Kingdom this year? This round of turmoil has considerably delayed the spring plowing in the North Territory, and it is estimated that the famine will continue, if not worsen. Therefore, I need your help.”

“No problem,” Queen Isa affirmed confidently, “At the beginning of the year, I issued a decree to encourage farming and intensify land reclamation. If nothing goes wrong, there will be a bumper harvest this autumn.”

“That’s great!” Colin breathed a sigh of relief, “As long as we survive this year, the North Territory will be able to breathe, and everything will gradually get back on track.”

“However, you’d better bring an army when you send people to buy food this autumn,” Queen Isa’s eyes sparkled with a hint of sternness.

“What’s the matter? Has someone been causing trouble?”

“Hmm. Your action of forcibly purchasing a large amount of food at a low price from Silver Moon City to aid the North Territory at the end of last year has already displeased many half-elf merchants and nobles. If it happens again this year, I’m afraid some people will overestimate themselves and make foolish decisions.”

Colin narrowed his eyes, his tone becoming more serious, “I see, when I get back, I will have Duke Modewen lead the Silver Moon Guards back to the Half-Elf Kingdom to help you stabilize the domestic situation.”

Yet Queen Isa gently shook her head, “There’s no hurry. I can still manage the internal situation of the Half-Elf Kingdom. Leave the Silver Moon Guards in the North Territory for now, you need them more. After the autumn harvest, it won’t be too late for Duke Modewen to return.”

Although Colin was a bit worried, he didn’t want to refuse Queen Isa’s kindness, nor did he want her to think he doubted her ability to control the domestic situation.

“Alright. If the situation in Silver Moon City changes, contact me immediately.”

“Yes.”

After a moment of silence, Queen Isa spoke again, “The situation in Alfalfa city has been a bit unusual recently.”

Colin didn’t take it seriously, laughing casually, “The regular army has entered the city, of course, all the cockroaches and rats in the shadows have hidden.”

“No, that’s not what I meant.” Queen Isa’s tone became serious, “Since the beginning of the year, a force known as the ‘Alfalfa Brotherhood’ has risen suddenly in the city, sweeping all the major gangs swiftly, and has initially taken control of Alfalfa City.”

“Oh?” Only then did Colin get serious, “Who’s the leader of this Alfalfa Brotherhood, do you know?”

“It’s a fifth-order warrior named Capen, who was wanted in the east for resisting the lord’s conscription order and later fled to Alfalfa City.

Although he is a superior warrior, he didn’t manage to thrive in the chaotic city of Alfalfa. However, at the start of this year, he suddenly began to build his own forces, rapidly expanding and has now almost become the nominal master of this city.”

“Someone is backing him up, isn’t it?” Colin guessed.

“That’s what I think too, and moreover, I suspect that the East is supporting Capen and the Alfalfa Brotherhood.”

“The East…hmm, it seems they are not too honest either.” Colin’s glance started to become dangerous.

“Indeed. However, you don’t need to worry too much.

When you exterminated the Pegasus Army in Silver Moon City, the St. Prowse family lost their most elite troops and they certainly won’t be able to interfere in the North Territory in a short time. Their attempts to control Alfalfa City through these underhanded tactics shows they’re also afraid of you establishing a navy in Silver Moon City and heading south down the Crystal River.”

After contemplating for a while, Colin said gravely, “We can’t let Alfalfa City fall into the East’s control!”

Queen Isa raised her head and looked at Colin, “Isn’t it bad to start a dispute with the East at this time?”

Colin shook his head, “Don’t worry, the East’s choice of using this kind of underhanded tactics to seize Alfalfa City proves that they are also scared of a direct conflict with the North.

It’s clear that the East is just as weak.”

“So what do you plan to do? Use the Dark Cavalry in the city and directly eliminate the Alfalfa Brotherhood?”

While stroking Queen Isa’s soft belly, Colin pondered, “No, let’s not directly interfere by using military force. I’m also worried that pushing the East to a dead end might lead to another war outbreak in Alfalfa City, and that won’t be good…

So here’s what we do, Alfalfa City is ultimately under the jurisdiction of the Half-Elf Kingdom, so you, as the Queen of the Half-Elves, should appoint a lord for Alfalfa City!

Let him unite with the forces in the city that are unwilling to yield to the Alfalfa Brotherhood and resist them.

The point is to prevent Alfalfa City from completely falling into the East’s hands. When the North finally recuperates, there will be an excuse to intervene.”

Queen Isa thought for a moment and nodded, “Alright, I will start looking for a suitable candidate.”

“Yes. If this lord fails and gets killed by Capen, you should keep appointing a new lord. But don’t send the regular army into Alfalfa city.

Just let the wolves in the city tear each other apart, making it impossible for the Alfalfa Brotherhood to easily consolidate power in the city.”

“I understand. There are plenty of ruthless and vicious people in Alfalfa City. It’s not hard to find a match for Capen, and creating chaos here would be even easier.”

Seeing Queen Isa quickly understand his intentions, Colin gave an approving kissed on her smooth forehead.

Queen Isa smiled suggestively, and proposed, “There’s a hot spring behind the church, would you like to soak in it?”

“Sure!”

Colin would of course not refuse and immediately lifted Queen Isa by her waist.

Amid her screams of surprise, he strode off.
