Chapter 478 Forgetting The Crucial Part
"This…" Leon and Eli were shocked by the sudden suggestion.
What they expect is for Grandpa Andi to suggest something like having Calderon and Elifas take care of Little Han because they were the champions of the Magic Tournament and were most likely as strong as one of the Imperial Sky Knights.
Traveling all the way to the Green Wave Continent on a different level!
It is on a different continent and it was even impossible for Eli and Leon to go there without permission from the Green Wave Government to enter there to fetch or visit Little Han.
Besides, the way of traveling there is either to get under the water with the help of the merfolk or over the air through a mighty flying beast.
It is because the seas that covered the entire Green Wave Continent are violent and cruel seas that are known for having devastating waves and storms.
So only by contracting the merfolk to protect them underwater or the mighty flying beasts who can soar beyond the stormy clouds could they safely get to the only non-human continent in Prasinos.
The dangers involved in traveling to the continent alone made Leon and Eli worried and almost immediately turned down the suggestion on the spot.
Grandpa Andi knew what they were thinking however, he did not get surprised by his reaction.
Instead, he calmly looked at the young couple and patiently explained the situation,
"Hear me, young ones, the elders have discussed this thoroughly and the reason I was the only one discussing this with you is that we wanted to be as discreet as possible in moving around this time…"
"I know that you are worried about how safe it is to travel with the known conditions to the continent that's why I brought these two lads!" Grandpa Andi smiled and waved his hands toward the two teenagers.
At Grandpa Andi's cue, Calderon and Elifas straightened their backs to appear how reliable and presentable they were.
"Let us no longer mention how they were the reigning champions in the tournament, but their background alone can already make the trip to the continent safe and given with extra care!
Young Calderon here is the grandson of the Chief of the Dragon Clan, while you know who Elifas is... the Grandson of Chief Eirllon of the Silver Dew Elves. Their identities alone are enough for either the merfolk or the flying beast men to grant them a safe passageway.
Who would want to go against a Dragon or even the Elves who guarded the resting place of the fallen Guardian Asa?"
"Did I forget to mention that since Little Han had been weaned and slept in the cradle when he was an infant that the merfolk would definitely treat him as the Mermaid King's kin?"
Then Grandpa Andi let out a chuckle and looked continued to bombard them,
"Hahaha! The news may not seem to reach here, but Little Han was not only declared as someone to be protected by the Protector of the Silver Dew Forest but the other Guardian Protectors issued an order to the other races too.
Just a few weeks ago, the Protector of the Dragon and all the Flying Beast Clans, Her Ladyship Amihan, gave the order to protect Little Han and the Guardian of the Merfolk, Protector Zale also issued the same mission to the mermaids and the creatures of the sea!
Of course, how would Protector Sylvain only put one group to protect Little Han from our side? He had already issued that all the elves, dwarves, dryads, and all the fairies of the earth be the little one's protector!
So you really do not need to think about who would protect my great-grandson when the entire Green Wave Continent is on his side!
And you do not have to be burdened too… The Guardians clearly stated that this would only last until the battle against the curse users is concluded. Once it was done, they would no longer force them to protect one human."
Grandpa Andi even detected the troubled expression of the couple and immediately countered their thoughts. The knowledge of having an entire continent mobilized to protect their son seemed to be too much of a burden for Eli and Leon to shoulder.
They could not even think of something that they could offer to compensate the entire race.
"Well, if you are not yet convinced, Young Leon will soon have a meeting with the rest of the allied leaders of the Green Wave Continent to finalize the arrangement regarding the secret preparations for war. You can use that time to also verify your doubts."
Grandpa Andi finally said his entire piece and gave the two some time to collect their thoughts and ask something.
Eli and Leon asked a few more questions and realized that the Grandmasters, Elders, and the Emperor had planned everything out.
In a week's time before the set time for transporting the prisoners will be transported, the Chief of the Dwarf Clan will call all his brethren via official summons.
Of course, the details of the summons would of course be kept confidential to the non-dwarven race, but this matter will be seen as something totally understandable to the public and even to the enemy.
With that, the Forgeworns will have the perfect reason to travel to the continent and perfectly disguise transporting the young Little Han by having him blend with the young dwarves.
Eli and Leon also came to know that the youngest of the Faraulds would also be joining and blending with the children.
It was too bad that Emperor Valentin's grandsons from Kazimir and Antoine could not join to take refuge because it would become too obvious to the enemies if these two children will be missing.
After that, Little Han will settle with the rest of the children in the safest place of the Elven clan, as the territory of the Dwarven Clan is quite unsuitable for children because it is located underground around a giant furnace for forgery.
"Don't worry, Lady… Erm… Aunt Eli and Your Highness, we will also protect Little Han… Because we played with him a lot back then…
And we really get along with Little Han…" Elifas also interjected as he was being nudged with an elbow by Calderon.
"Alright… we heard and asked everything we needed to know." Leon took a deep breath and sighed.
Although his words mean that they need no more words to convince them. Leon and Eli could not bear to say their agreement without thinking about everything thoroughly.
"I understand. Think about it during the next few days. The summons will be announced after some time and our preparations will start whatever your decision may be. That is because the Green Wave Continent is determined to have their clansmen go back to the continent to avoid getting into the crossfire."
Grandpa Andi understood Leon and Eli so he did not insist on getting their decision at the moment.
He just made them know that the summons will not only happen on the dwarven clan but the other races will also find a way to discreetly call back their kin without alerting the enemy, so the trip to the Green Wave Continent will push through no matter what.
"Oh! How could I forget about another crucial thing!" Suddenly a thought came to Grandpa Andi's mind and he immediately rubbed his forehead and looked at the couple again.
"Young Eli, since you are now a Forgeworn, you are also included in the summons!"
"P-pardon?" Eli was so shocked that she could not react on time.
"I'm saying that you are also expected to be with us on the journey!"
