Chapter 169 – New Team (9)
“I received something, so I can’t ignore it. It’s a waste of time, and let’s do what we can teach you along the way.”
“Oh, I see.”
“If you listen to old stories, there are stories of some humans learning something from us, but I’m new to teaching other races. I don’t know if it will work out.”
The way back to Eden. Naria is running out of time, and while she is on the move, she offers to let Ren know what she can.
There was virtually no resistance. It was because she had experience of fighting and living with other races in the past, so she had an open side to some extent.
Ren also recognized that this was a rare opportunity and tried to make it work somehow. She wasn’t actually saying she could teach her and she could learn it on her own.
Since she was already accustomed to the skills of the elves, it was entirely up to Ren to accept the new one.
‘Does he still have some talent?’
Fortunately, Ren absorbed her teachings well. It wasn’t easy for her to actually put what she learned into practice, but she found that Ren’s immaturity actually worked as an advantage.
“But you’ll have to think carefully when using this power. If you fight alongside other elves, you need time to reconcile with them separately. You will fight in a completely different way than before.”
“When I fight against demon beasts, it seems like the way I deal with them changes every time.”
“Beasts?”
However, when she made predictions against elves and humans like Naria, who had heard the circumstances of the Great Forest. Ren nodded her head, mentioning the demonic beasts who showed a wide variety of appearances.
In fact, the residents of Eden had to adapt and analyze each time against the monsters, whose attack methods drastically changed depending on their form and appearance.
On the other hand, Naria was interested in the story of Eden’s demons, which she did not know yet.
“I don’t understand a little bit. There’s no way monsters like that could be widespread in this area.”
“Perhaps you will know when you see it for yourself.”
Not sure what Eden is yet, she expressed her doubts, but Liam decided that rather than explain something she didn’t know much about, she decided to just show her.
Indeed, they cut down on their sleep after that and crossed the road at high speed until they reached a place where there was a passage leading to Eden.
“The atmosphere is disturbed?”
But when they got there. Liam noticed the frenetic atmosphere of some of the personnel waiting for them at the base.
“What is this, Rat, did they notice our activities?”
“Not yet. Because of something else.”
Liam met her colleague and asked about her circumstances. A dwarf named Rat, who was given command of external spying by Aaron, sighed at Liam’s words and shook his head.
“We never talked like that before. The King of the Great Mountains is not simply showing off, or raising an army purely for defense. It must have been true.”
Rat told us some of the information they gathered. This was exactly what Serenian reported.
“It is clear that there was a dispute with the neighboring forces. I haven’t been able to get detailed information yet, but it seems that the elves in the snowy mountains are also involved in this.”
“Eh, elves?”
Liam was taken aback when he pointed his hand at the ice caps in the distance. They were surprised to learn that the dwarves attacked the elves.
Of course, only a few dwarves, including them, had a friendly relationship with the elves, but the Dwarf Kingdom had no relationship with the elves before.
“We’re members of Eden, so it doesn’t matter. The problem is that Eden’s elves want to save their kindred in danger.”
“I want to hear more about that story.”
Rat shrugged his shoulders, saying that we no longer belonged to the dwarf kingdom, so we don’t have to care about what the kingdom did.
However, Naria, who had been listening to the story in silence, showed interest with her face stiff.
She didn’t know anything because she was busy living alone, so it came as a great shock that the Dwarf kingdom really started to move its power around.
“For details, I think you should go inside.”

Liam also ushered her down the aisle with her serious face. A gap between the cliffs that looks like nothing to anyone.
However, the moment they entered the rift, an underground world populated by fairy ants unfolded before them.
“I can’t believe it. Nonsense.”
Naria forgot what happened just before that moment and admired it. Everything was a mystery to her, as she had never imagined a place like this existed.
“I didn’t mean to bring you here without reason.”
“I have no choice but to believe it.”
Her elves, even the fairy ants, were used to dwarves now and didn’t even pay attention to her, but it was all a refreshing shock to Naria.
The first time Liam talked about moving to Eden. There was nothing of her needy tramps as she had imagined.

“There is a dwarven city right next to an elf village.”
“I don’t think anything is impossible.”
After her party, including Naria, who newly joined Eden, returned, she had some free time. After traveling alone with the dwarves, she returned to the side of the elves, and Cynaria, along with Liam, ended up meeting Aaron.
She was still dazed. It was because everything she had heard only became true and unfolded before her eyes.
Especially, as I came here, the world’s number of excessive bonsai pots kept flickering in my eyes.
“Are you really going to rebel against the kingdom? When I first heard it, I thought it was ridiculous, but after seeing this place, I changed my mind.”
Changing her attitude seriously, she asked Aaron with a slightly trembling voice.
The dwarves of Eden are all those who left the kingdom after being disappointed by the king and unable to endure the tyranny. There was nothing he couldn’t do if he was determined to become a rebel, and he even looked very relaxed and rich.
She understood and sympathized with their situation, but if things got bigger and that happened, what she really feared would eventually explode.
“To be honest, I don’t want that much. Perhaps it would be quicker for them to accuse us of traitors first.”
But when Aaron heard that, he shook her head. Like her past self, she was sincere in her desire to help her people suffering from pressure from the superiors, but at best she did not want the united dwarves to be divided again.
“We just resist and protest. No matter how much I complained, those in power and power would not listen, so I had no choice but to find a way to live.”
“But if that happens, I assure you, the King will not forgive you.”
“If you push the wrong idea, I do not intend to stand still. Don’t you know They have already crossed the line. I’m stubborn, so I don’t even think about listening to it when I say it.”
When Naria muttered as if she felt sorry for her, Aaron firmly shook her head.
He couldn’t stop since he had already come this far. More than anything else, since he already thought heaven was watching him, he was determined to do his duty.
“Come with me. We will show you why we cannot back down.”
Aaron soon led Naria to the workshop. This is the place where the solar powered device that Seunghyeon put in is still working non-stop.
“What the hell is this?”
“We are blessed with heavenly grace. I cannot surrender because I have to pay it back.”
Naria was overwhelmed in front of a huge machine. I’m not a craftsman, but the sight of a huge structure moving by itself with the sound of a motor was so intimidating.
‘Heaven’s protection.’
She remembered what she had heard from Liam and Ren. Although she had been told about Eden from the moment of her first mention, in fact she did not believe it.
She couldn’t even imagine that a godhead existed, so she just dismissed it as her party’s way of expressing the help of the elves.
“Look at the sky it is still doubtful. Right now, God is helping us.”
“Ah…”
Aaron made her look at the sky. The time has come.
Soon, something fell in succession to the clearing made of soft soil with a momentary twinkling light from the distant sky.
Then all the dwarves cheered and ran towards it. They cheered when they saw the contents of the capsule, such as gunpowder and aluminum lumps made of silver foil.
“Are you surprised?”
“…!”
On the other hand, Naria, who was sitting on the ground, was shocked by the fact that such things had fallen from the sky and lost her words.
She couldn’t believe that more than her contents, the aluminum nuggets they needed fell from the sky as meteorites.
