Chapter 122 – Dark Elf (1)
The elf’s eyes alternately looked at Osli and Fanat.
“Very strong people.”
Then he turned his head again.
Before long, his gaze stopped at Xian.
“A human… is that right?”
The elf tilted his head.
“weird. I am not human.”
The elf came closer to Xian.
“I feel a familiar energy. what. There has never been a person like this.”
Eventually, the elf looked at Xian and said.
“I’m Sarah.”
Xian burst into laughter.
Xian had heard about the habits of the elves from Semir.
According to Semir, the elves had no manners.
If there was a heart of respect for the opponent, there was no need to use respect.
If you use respect, you will feel uncomfortable.
‘I know Elodie wasn’t like this…’
I guess it’s been a long time.
Dwarves became human, but elves were cut off from humans.
It seemed that this tendency was born as they continued their lives without interacting with others.
And when I met him in person, it was quite unique.
“It’s Xi’an.”
“draft?”
Sarah tilted her head once more.
“draft. Are you human?”
“Doesn’t it look like a human?”
I thought it looked like a human though.
“weird. Humans aren’t like this. I feel a very powerful energy. And great. familiar So it’s amazing.”
Sera circled around Xian and said.
Apparently, it is the demon of the origin that settled in Xian’s body.
It was as if he felt Kyle’s power within him.
‘for a moment. Didn’t even Durak feel that?’
I wanted to feel Kendrick, but I couldn’t.
Kendrick left it with the Knights of Ruben just in case.
It was a situation where he ordered to help the northerners suffering from barbarians with the Knights of Ruben.
He should have been slaughtering the barbarians by now.
There was no Kendrick in the bracelet he was wearing now.
But how…?
“My name is Panat Lorsilt.”
Afterwards, Panat spoke to Sera.
The expression full of curiosity seemed like Fanat was seeing an elf for the first time.
“Fanat Lorsylt? long I’ll just call you Fanat.”
Sera’s words left Panat in a daze for a moment.
Usually, the word Lorsilt made me fall in shock.
At least I had to pretend to be surprised.
However, Sarah did not show any interest.
“Who is Mr. Bear over there? What is your name?”
Sarah pointed to Osley and said.
Master Intermediate level, Marquis of the North Osley.
To Osley, you call him Mr. Bear.
Well, that’s wrong… no. anyway it is
what kind of bullsh*t do you mean
If he was a human, it was a crime that would not have escaped execution for insult.
But fortunately, it’s because Xian said it in advance.
Or did he understand the characteristics of being an elf?
Osley did not pull out his greatsword.
“Osley Battenberg. He is the Marquis of the North.”
“Battenberg? northern? change bag? Humans are too difficult. I’ll just call you Mr. Bear.”
If that’s the case, why did you ask?
Anyway, I couldn’t understand the habits of the elves.
“What are you doing here? Need help?”
Sarah asked, Osley and Fanat.
The two looked at Xian at the same time.
Even if he pretended not to be, he seemed quite taken aback by the elf he had seen in person.
Fortunately, Xian reacted well.
It seemed to be an eye on how to do it.
It was Xian who brought me here in the first place.
Xian immediately asked Sarah.
“Sera. Are you the one who helped the humans?”
“huh. I helped humans.”
It seemed to me that the elf people were talking about was Sarah.
“Then you were the one who used black magic?”
“Black magic? That’s right, I can use black magic. But I don’t know what you mean by using it.”
At that moment, Osley’s momentum changed completely.
A murderous intent tinged with anger blossomed through Osley’s whole body.
Still, thanks to Xian’s request, he didn’t pull out his greatsword right away.
“Mister Bear is angry. Did Sera say something bad?”
Sara sighed and lowered her head.
Rather than being intimidated by Osley’s momentum…
He seemed literally sullen at the fact that he had offended Osley.
Sian laughed involuntarily.
Then, with confidence, he spoke to Sarah again.
“Sera.”
“huh?”
“Are you a dark elf?”
In an instant, Sera’s body suddenly stiffened.
Before long, Sera’s clear eyes widened as she looked at Xian.
That expression was like, ‘Oh, how did you know?!’ seemed to be shouting.
“Uh, how did you know?!”
It was that expression too.
Seeing Sera’s reaction, Xian burst into laughter involuntarily.
Usually, I’m going to deny it once in a while.
It seemed that he had no intention of lying in the first place.
No, he didn’t seem to know that it was a lie.
Should I be pure or what should I call this.
Hagisa, what does that have to do with elves?
This was a race of elves.
It was only strange that people who cheated again.
Sarah pulled her long hair down in front of her eyes.
“Your hair color is the same!?”
After confirming that it was still pure white, he opened his eyes again.
The two clear eyes of Sera.
Xian looked into his eyes and said.
“You mean dark elves?”
“Uh… uh, yes.”
Sarah rolled her eyes and stuttered.
Xian looked at Sera calmly.
Then Sarah asked, embarrassed.
“Aren’t you afraid of me?”
“I’m not afraid.”
“why?”
“Are you afraid of me?”
“no. I’m not afraid. familiar I don’t know why.”
“But what?”
Xian shrugged once.
Sera tilted her head at Xian’s appearance.
“It’s really strange.”
“what?”
“Everyone is like that when they know I’m a dark elf.”
Sarah pointed her finger at Xian’s back.
A natural look back.
There, Fanat and Osli were surprised with their eyes wide open.
‘Oh.’
It was only then that Xian realized.
Although I told you that I was an elf before coming.
Because I didn’t tell you that it might be a dark elf.
Ever since Xian heard the word elf, he had been thinking about the possibility of becoming a dark elf.
And the image of Dark Elves on the continent was quite negative.
dark race.
The Dark Elves were excluded from the continent.
Still, I was only surprised by Xian’s strong advice.
So, it’s pretty surprising.
Fortunately, I didn’t get stabbed.
Well, in the first place, I only heard that it was a dark elf.
Sera didn’t look like a Dark Elf at all.
Let alone being swallowed up by madness, they couldn’t be called a race of darkness.
A completely different look from the known image.
And it was the same with Xian.
‘I didn’t know elves were such a pure race.’
Is Sarah special?
Xian turned his head again and said to Sera.
“Then go as long as I’m weird.”
“that’s right. It’s really strange.”
Sara nodded in affirmation.
Anyway, he was an honest elf.
“Are you the only Dark Elf?”
“no. There is a village where friends live.”
“Is the chieftain there?”
“Chief?”
“So… the one who leads the Dark Elves. A boss of some sort?”
“Leader? Are you talking about the forest keeper?”
It seemed that the elves did not have the concept of a chief and a captain.
However, the forest keeper seemed to be filling that role.
and.
“My father is a forest keeper.”
For some reason, it seemed that Sera was the daughter of an elf chief.
“Can I meet the Forest Keeper?”
“My dad? why?”
“I have something to ask. I have something to tell you.”
“Umm…”
Sara was quick to respond.
It seems pretty troubling.
Hagisa, it was inevitable.
Sarah’s worries continued for quite a long time.
how much time had passed like that?
“good. I will take you to our village.”
Sarah’s voice came through.
“······ huh?”
Xian tilted his head for a moment.
“Because Xian doesn’t seem like a bad person.”
Sarah smiled and said.
Xian really wanted something.
Could this also be a habit of the Dark Elves?
well, anyway.
With this, it seemed that they could go to the Dark Elves’ village.
“Can the Marquis and Panat-sama go together?”
“Mister Bear and Panat? Um… yes. Because they are the friends Xian brought. I wouldn’t be a bad person.”
Somehow, it seemed like he had bought a lot of trust, but…
this is anyway
“Let’s go.”
Xian turned his head and spoke to Osley and Panat.
But why?
“How can this…”
“Now, what about you…”
Osley and Fanat were looking at Xian with shocked eyes.
#
Unlike the dwarves, the elves hate humans and are cut off from the world.
Even the Dark Elves were more severe.
It’s because I’ve been completely rejected by the world.
And was it affected by such exclusion?
The village where the Dark Elves were located was quite remote and far away.
So, no one can come.
“Aww…!”
In a word, I was in a filthy cold place.
Xian trembled and moved his steps.
I tried wearing fur coats countless times, but to no avail.
Every time the wind blew, the wind cutter magic grazed my skin.
It felt like an ice ball was shoved into my mouth with every breath.
and.
Tring!
《Kong!》
As expected, the mobile lord was also frozen.
It was really cold even though it was really cold.
Can I live in a place like this…? It was cold enough to want
‘I lived in a place like this, so I couldn’t find it.’
Xian looked around calmly.
Fanat, well, whatever.
“Aren’t you cold, Mr. Marquis?”
Osley also seemed unconcerned.
If I become a Master, will I be able to use the function to warm up my body?
“We are used to this kind of cold in the North.”
Osley spit out the words.
And then, he seems to be moving his steps.
I didn’t think it was a real bear.
Well, it was Osley, who had lived all his life in the North.
I’m not used to this kind of cold, so it must be normal.
and.
“I’m not cold at all.”
Sera didn’t feel the cold either.
It wasn’t that I didn’t feel the cold, it was just that I couldn’t feel it.
That’s because she’s wearing clothes that reveal her immaculate skin.
That doesn’t mean you’re naked.
It didn’t make sense to wear clothes that exposed the inner skin.
“Dae, how the heck…?”
“Magic.”
“ah.”
Dark elves descended from Elodie.
And not just the Dark Elves, but the Elf race was a race related to magic.
In a word, a born wizard.
Sera seemed to have warmed herself up with magic.
“I moved my body and it got hot.”
No, it seemed that he had heated himself up because he couldn’t keep warm.
Sarah took off the clothes she was wearing.
There was only one piece of clothing that was so light that it seemed like it would fly off, hanging over Sera’s body.
Because of that, Sera’s immaculate inner skin was exposed intact and quite a lot.
That doesn’t mean you can see it that way, though.
If you weren’t careful, you could see it.
whether you know that fact or not.
Sara put on an expression that seemed like she would finally live.
“Do you want to wear it when it’s cold?”
Then, he handed the clothes he had taken off to Xian.
Xian stared blankly at the clothes Sarah handed her.
Clothes that don’t look warm at all.
It seems to be an act of scratching one’s temper…
Maybe it’s because Sara said it, but it didn’t feel that way.
I don’t know if it’s because I know there’s no malice in what I said, but it seemed like I was really teasing innocently.
So, oddly enough, that feeling wasn’t too bad.
“······Give it here.”
Xian put on an extra layer of the clothes Sera gave him.
Because it’s better than nothing.
That moment.
“huh?”
As if facing a blazing log fire, heat began to circulate all over the body.
At the same time, the chill that had been felt to the bone disappeared in an instant.
“Because the clothes are enchanted. Are you warm now?”
And Sarah’s words.
Sara smiled and smiled.
“I’m fine, so wear cyan. Because I can use magic.”
And then Sarah took a step forward.
Xian looked at Sera calmly.
And said to Fanat who was walking next to him.
“Are you not aware of something?”
“This… looks simple enough, but it’s quite difficult.”
And then Panat said.
“It’s not just about generating heat, it’s about adjusting the flow of the air to trap the heat and driving out the cold air, so you have to constantly control the flow. That’s why I can bet on others…”
He began to explain some kind of magical theory.
I also started to explain quite complex theories…
Somehow, I thought he thought that if it was Xian, he would understand.
But Xian had a headache and just closed his ears.
To sum it up, it meant that it was not something I could pretend to do like Sera.
“Even more so putting enchantments on clothes…”
Fanat only looked at Sera, who was ahead, with admiring eyes.
“Here. Everything is here.”
Before long, Sera pointed to the place ahead and shouted.
I thought it was all there, but…
Xian tilted his head.
That would be the place Sarah pointed with her finger.
Because nothing was visible there.
To be precise, it was just full of white snow.
It was not very different from the scenery I had seen so far.
There was nothing in sight that could be called a Dark Elf village.
I couldn’t even find a trace of it.
That moment.
“Phantom world magic…?”
Panat’s voice came from the side.
Panat was looking at the direction Sera pointed with trembling eyes.
It seems that something is different from the magician Panat.
“A level that even deceives the senses…? to do it on such a large scale?”
It seemed like a great magic if Panat could admire it that much.
“It’s magic that was spread with the power of the World Tree.”
It was definitely not ordinary magic.
That moment.
“Sera. Where have you been and are you now?”
An unfamiliar voice came from the front sight.
Eventually, the landscape distorted and a being stepped out of the background.
And dark black hair and pointy ears.
It was a typical appearance of a Dark Elf.
At the same time, Osley’s eyes changed sharply.
It wasn’t just because of the fact that he was a dark elf.
The energy I feel from that Dark Elf.
It’s not an ordinary level of energy.
Minimum Master Intermediate.
no, more than that.
As Xian did not know the level of a wizard, he could not give a definite answer.
However, it is stronger than the Panat next to it.
So at least the 7th level, maybe the 8th level.
Elandur’s family head, comparable to Durak.
I could feel the level of energy comparable to that of Lorsilt’s head, Egritte.
Xian and Fanat also looked at each other with nervous eyes.
“I’m here Dad!”
Sarah cheered and ran to him.
From what I could see, he seemed to be Sera’s father and a forest keeper leading the Dark Elves.
The forest keeper’s gaze turned to Sera’s back.
And after finding Cyan, Fanat, and Osli, he asked Sarah.
“Who are they?”
“Human friends. I brought you because you wanted to see my dad.”
Sarah pointed to Xian, Fanat, and Osley in turn.
“This is Xian. He’s a Panat. And over there, Mr. Bear is Mr. Bear.”
The last sentence was a little strange, but…
well, anyway.
The forest keeper looked through them one by one in the order Sera pointed out.
“Is it because of the black magic spreading in the North?”
And he said something meaningful.
“Follow me.”
The forest keeper turned his back and moved on.
The space shuddered once again, and the figure of the forest keeper disappeared.
“Come in.”
Before long, Sera also disappeared into the shimmering space.
and at the same time.
Tring!
『[Land Quest] – ‘The Dark Elves are calling. We are not devils!’ (clear!)”
I heard a cheerful notification sound from my smartphone that the quest had been cleared.
