The Villain’s Cheat Code: When a Gamer Becomes the Evil God’s Sidekick-Chapter 432: Guess How Much I Can Sell This To You?

The nobles' gazes anxiously followed the sound coming from outside the palace gates, their eyes filled with tension and curiosity as they turned toward its source.
The moment they saw the two women at the entrance, many nobles' minds went blank with a sudden buzz, as if struck by lightning.
If their eyes weren't deceiving them,
That beautiful woman was none other than Viktor's sister, Lia Kravina.
And the elegant, noble elf accompanying her was undoubtedly Cocotte Yade.
This scene struck the nobles with an uncanny sense of déjà vu, as if they had witnessed it before.
They recalled that Lia had previously visited the palace with that same elf.
Even the cloud-like cushion beneath the elf was identical in shape to the previous visit.
Now, they had appeared here once again.
As for Lia, the nobles present were no longer unfamiliar with her.
If previously, Lia had been merely a merchant from the Kravina family, with absolutely no connection to these ministers involved in imperial politics—
They wouldn't even have bothered to spare her a glance.
But now things were completely different. The nobles present would even go out of their way to curry favor with Lia and try to get close to her.
The reason behind this was simple: the Kravina family's influence had now reached a remarkable level.
Viktor's power and his almost fearsome influence was an unspoken consensus among all the nobles present.
He was not someone they could afford to offend.
And Lia was Viktor's sister.
Although these nobles all knew that on the surface, Viktor was the head of the Kravina family,
In reality, all the family affairs, big and small, were personally managed by Lia.
Viktor was just an absentee landlord, completely uninvolved in the territory's affairs.
So, under such conditions, Lia's status naturally became even more noble.
At least among the many nobles present, not one could afford to offend her.
But why had Lia suddenly visited the palace today?
And she had brought that elf with her again.
The ministers were also quite familiar with who this elf was.
A former member of the Mage Council.
And edly, the queen of the elven race.
Elves as a race were already mysterious to humans, and Cocotte, being the Elven Queen, undoubtedly held an even more noble status.
At this moment, the emperor's earlier words echoed in the nobles' minds:
"Don't stand at the door, let outsiders see, it doesn't look good."
Thinking of these words, the nobles all scratched their heads, beginning to wonder.
Could it be that His Majesty was referring to the Elven Queen's impending visit?
Oh, looking at it that way, there really wasn't anything wrong with it. They indeed needed to make way.
Hearing Cocotte's greeting, Aubrey also smiled and nodded slightly to her, saying:
"Long time no see."
"But we just met not too long ago."
Cocotte sat cross-legged on her cloud, listening to Aubrey's words, and scratched her head:
"Ah, is that so?"
"Sorry, I've been sleeping a bit too much lately."
Aubrey had intended to continue standing straight, but upon hearing this, his shoulders relaxed, and a tolerant smile appeared on his face:
"You seem to be in good spirits lately."
In his impression, Cocotte always liked to curl up on her cloud-like cushion, enjoying long dreams.
He still remembered the last time Cocotte visited, she had entered the palace almost drowsy with sleep.
Only after rubbing her eyes did she notice him, the emperor.
At that time, Cocotte was lazy and sleepy, seemingly ready to fall back into dreamland at any moment.
But now, she seemed like a different person, almost too energetic.
At least compared to before, she was noticeably different.
Hearing this, Cocotte's face broke into a mischievous smile:
"Hehe, I think so too."
Then, her gaze turned to examine Aubrey, with a hint of concern in her eyes:
"Hmm... but your condition..."
As a nature spirit, Cocotte possessed the ability to perceive the essence of life.
She could sense that despite Aubrey's outwardly splendid appearance, the flame of life within him was weak and fragile.
Like a candle about to burn out, it could be extinguished at any moment.
Aubrey's condition was getting worse.
Much worse than the last time they met.
But she didn't say it explicitly.
Because for humans with their brief lifespans, longevity was an extremely sensitive topic.
Many humans even had unspeakable taboos about it.
She closed her eyes, one hand supporting her chin, saying nothing, lost in thought.
Under the pleasant conversation between the Elven Queen and Emperor Aubrey, the nobles fell silent one after another.
Not one dared to interrupt the dialogue between these two high-ranking leaders.
But today was supposed to be a court session where they would persuade Emperor Aubrey.
How had it turned into something resembling a gathering of old friends?
At this moment, Marquis Tzena also lowered his head, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead in nervousness.
He finally understood why Lipoaute had stopped him earlier. It was because distinguished guests were about to arrive.
And this guest was a noble elf.
Elves represented nature.
As humans, whether nobles or commoners, they had been educated from childhood to always maintain reverence for nature.
Therefore, discussions about the imperial succession would obviously have to wait until after the Elven Queen's departure.
Clearly, Lipoaute had already realized this, so he hadn't mentioned it today.
At this time, Cocotte reopened her eyes and said softly:
"In our Elven Forest, there's a very magical dewdrop."
"For humans, it can even nourish the body and extend lifespan."
Hearing Cocotte say this, the nobles were all dumbfounded.
Even Aubrey showed deep interest, curiosity evident in his brow:
"Oh? Is this a treasure of your elves?"
"You could say that."
Cocotte sat on her cloud, recalling Lia's earlier instructions to her:
Although she didn't know why Lia wanted her to say this, she still spread her hands, feigning helplessness as she said:
"But this thing is quite precious, only about two drops can be produced in a year."
In reality, the elves collected more than two drops every day.
But as she finished speaking, countless nobles' gazes, like hungry wolves, all focused on her.
Although Cocotte didn't look directly at them, those greedy eyes still made her feel displeased and uncomfortable.
She felt that she really didn't like it.
Cocotte scratched her head somewhat uncomfortably.
However, this should be the situation Lia had mentioned earlier.
She coughed lightly, glancing toward Lia, as if reminding her:
"Lia."
Hearing Cocotte's words, Lia immediately raised the crystal-clear communication crystal in her hand to her lips:
"You can come now."
What did that mean?
At this moment, the nobles looked at each other, confused and puzzled.
Suddenly, rich natural magic flooded the entire palace like an ocean.
Colorful flowers grew out of thin air from the palace floor, and lush green grass also grew neatly, enveloping the entire palace.
A natural, fresh scent replaced the stuffiness in the palace.
Warm currents also surged, dispelling the cold of the autumn-winter season in the palace.
And among those grasses and flowers, huge flower buds gradually opened.
After that, Vinia, holding a wooden staff, walked out from among the flowers.
With each step she took, an elf would bloom from the surrounding flower buds and stand up from within.
Finally, one by one, the elves appeared before everyone.
They held leaves in their hands, containing several distinct dewdrops that sparkled with the light of dawn.
The lingering warmth indoors plunged the nobles into contemplation, the warm air filling their lungs.
Lungs accustomed to the dryness and deadness of winter seemed to be awakened by this warmth.
But in their daze, they ignored the fragrance in the air, focusing entirely on the guests who had appeared in the palace.
So... so many elves!?
They had never seen so many elves in their entire lives.
This... this couldn't be a dream, could it...
At this time, Lia stepped forward.
The surrounding flowers and grasses encircled her, and her gaze swept through the crowd of blossoms, surveying everyone present.
Finally, her gaze lingered on Lipoaute for a while.
Then Lia elegantly raised her head, looking toward Emperor Aubrey seated on the throne:
"Your Majesty."
"Please allow me to explain."
She stood before the elves, amidst the endless floral embrace, and curtseyed slightly to Aubrey:
"The Elven Forest, in the name of nature—"
"Wishes to forge an eternal friendship with the Empire."
