Chapter 326: Princess Tina Is Sure to Win!
On this continent, the wise creatures, including humans, can sometimes be quite strange.
Even if the outcome has no real meaning, we must find a way to decide her fate.
Tina and Isabella both clearly understood that even if they beat each other, they could never win over Lolth.
In a way, although the reasons and the process are bizarre and the misunderstandings are extreme, their conclusion is very accurate.
That is, the competition between them truly has no relation to whom Lolth would be attracted to.
It’s like those stories where bad students fight over a beautiful school idol… Nowadays, love stories and shoujo manga rarely have such plots.
This way of pursuing love only worked well in idol dramas from the early 2000s and was often tied to heavy bangs, dramatic camera angles, and a Hong Kong accent.
But in reality, at this point, the rivalry between Tina and Isabella is no longer just about Lolth.
A big part of it has become a contest between the two of them!
It’s even more than just their own internal struggle.
It also involves everyone in Hillenbrand Town who has taken sides in this huge gossip!
Behind the scenes, Tina took a deep breath and adjusted her mindset.
"You got this, Tina! Just perform normally, and you’ll win."
"Even though Isabella is quite beautiful among humans… you are a member of the elven race, famous for your perfect looks!"
"In Hillenbrand Town, you are clearly more popular; Isabella’s knight involvement in projects and events doesn’t compare to yours!"
"And she has been eating too much lately, her face has become a bit rounder!"
"Even if she doesn’t gain weight, she definitely wins in terms of figure!"
"Moreover, it is agreed to use the special outfits that Lolth’s owner loves to decide the winner…"
"So, her biggest advantage, which came from the knight’s cold and proud aura, has also been weakened!"
"Furthermore… you still have that unexpected ‘trump card’ from Isabella!"
Tina nervously comforted herself.
In the waiting room with Isabella, the girl with "Ryman Ice" appeared much calmer, showing no visible emotions.
However, the fact that she pulled out a piece of chocolate or a piece of ham from her pocket every few minutes and ate it expressionlessly clearly showed…
Isabella was also very nervous!
More nervous than she was before passing the Northman Knight test!
"It’s okay, I am well prepared, those ‘arrangements’ will definitely catch Tina off guard!"
Isabella was eating while calming down.
And as each contestant took the stage, the small number of beauty contestants quickly approached the end!
Isabella and Tina are among the last few numbers!
In fact, the two of them are sitting next to each other.
And soon…
"Now, let’s welcome our esteemed proxy lord from Hillenbrand Town— the beautiful Moon Elf, Miss Tina!"
Maider’s enthusiastic voice rang out, and Tina suddenly stood up.
"It’s happening!"
She clenched her fist, then relaxed, adjusting her expression to a natural state.
Then…
She pushed open the waiting room door and walked down the corridor from the backstage to stand before the curtain!
Below the stage, a Wood Elf ranger looked at his elven companion and made a "let’s go" gesture!
The curtain slowly opened, revealing a simple yet charming stage where Tina, dressed in a school uniform, stood with her arms crossed in front of her, slowly appearing.
Along with her appearance, there was also an ethereal, almost invisible song!
For the residents of Hillenbrand Town, the language of the song felt a bit unfamiliar, as the melody and instruments used were different from the popular songs in the human kingdoms on the continent.
It was more serene and ethereal, filled with a sense of nature.
Upon careful listening, it was easy to recognize that the female voice in the melody belonged to Tina!
This song is a traditional tune sung in the language of the elves.
Accompanied by the elves from the former Holy Alliance’s Superoperators, Tina sings, using a magical device to play a pre-recorded track.
At this moment, the music plays, alongside Tina on stage.
Everyone seems to be in the forest and valleys where the elves live.
The streams babble, the trees are lush, birds and insects chirp softly, and the breeze rustles the leaves.
Tina appears like an elven girl, standing deep in the forest, her figure flickering in and out of sight.
Like a little deer in the woods, she gazes at you from a distance behind the bushes, ready to dart away at any moment.
But while she stays in place, she is so very quiet.
This scene is enough to make everyone hold their breath and be captivated.
This is also why the sales of the elves’ picture books remain high in the human kingdom.
Just looking at her appearance, her slender figure, delicate skin, exquisite facial features, and eyes that shine like gems…
The elves are indeed as beautiful as works of art.
Just standing there, Tina looked like a beautiful painting that could only be found in a museum or gallery.
Although being together every day made it easy for everyone to overlook Tina’s beauty, her reliability, skills, and her slightly odd personality when talking about Lolth made many people ignore her "appearance…"
However, with the start of the song, everyone remembered one thing:
Tina Leinster, the Crescent, is a stunning beauty, even among the Moon Elf clan, who are known for their high average beauty!
The Demon King, standing at the edge of the crowd, watched Tina on stage and quietly nudged Doyle, who had turned into a strange crow on her shoulder.
"If Dear Lolth wants to marry this elf, I can make an exception and marry them… If the partner is a princess and so beautiful, she deserves Dear Lolth!"
"Yes, Lord of the Demon King, I feel the same way."
Doyle Candice said.
On the other side of the crowd, Froer, the White Elf, who had watched Tina grow up, did not feel any "awe."
She even felt an urge to cover her face.
"The elf priest song I taught you is not meant for singing at a time like this… And how did Mora and those guys start causing trouble too… Did this guy really become more sensible?"
"With this level of skill, you can’t win over a succubus… Probably can’t, right?"
Froer thought to herself.
But looking at the stunned Heidegger and the silent crowd, her words took on a different meaning.
"Oh dear… This child, besides her beauty and singing, really has no other talents, how could she possibly win the heart of a succubus… Don’t you agree, Lord Heidegger?"
