There Was a Porter Who Would One Day Be Called a Prophet chapter 117

117 – World Tree – 7

In a forest with countless footprints.

“Turn it off…”

In the middle of the road there, a one-armed elf was moaning.

“Kwaaah!”

Regilus, who had been badly beaten by the porter, unconsciously put his hand on the ground and screamed.

“Heuk… I, an elf, don’t like humans…”

His smashed hand was swollen and swollen from the outside, and it looked very painful.

“Keep it off…!”

Using the mistake I just made as a stepping stone, I pushed the ground with my forearm and struggled to stand up.

After several attempts, he managed to break up with the dirt floor, and even though he was pessimistic about his situation, he began to think of using the current situation.

Of course, that plan was based on the premise that the hero party would fail in subjugating the World Tree.

“Even if it were a party of warriors, it would be at the level of three humans being carried by Reina. And even with Reina, the mother tree… No, there’s no way they could win against a monster like that.”

It is unacceptable for me to go to someone else even though I didn’t have it.

It seems that he couldn’t come to his senses even after being beaten up by the porter just now.

It is not known what his attitude would have been if he had known that the person who knocked him down was a porter.

Soon he began to walk, following the dizzying footprints.

– Hung-seong-gung-seong.

Before long, I was able to witness the gathering of elves.

For some reason, the elves stopped moving and stopped there.

Among them, an elf recognized him and rushed out.

“Regilus-sama!”

It was the short-haired elf that the warrior party encountered at the entrance.

“How the hell did that arm do that!”

When the short-haired elf saw him and made a fuss, the eyes of the elves were drawn to Regillus in the commotion.

Unintentionally attracting attention, he smiled inwardly and said.

“I was careless trying to stop the world tree, so I stopped…”

Regilos speaks while emphasizing that he was careless.

“What about the face?”

Unexpected to ask that, he answered with his lips covering his protruding front teeth as much as possible.

“…I tried to fight the monsters with my remaining arm, but I allowed the attack.”

Regilus couldn’t bear to say that he had become like this because he was beaten by a human.

Having succeeded in wrapping himself up, he asked about the current situation as a distraction.

“By the way, why did you stop here instead of going further?”

“That’s…”

As the short-haired elf hesitated, the long-haired elf came over and whispered in Regillus’ ear.

“…Just a while ago, a human pointed out that we were cowardly and left, but no one has been moving from their seats since.

– Eudeuk.

Hearing that, he gnashed his teeth.

‘To dare to say that humans are cowardly toward elves….’

While Regillus was thinking about that, the long-haired elf noticed and asked.

“You may have encountered it from the direction you came from, but have you not seen it?”

Flinch.

It must have been just a question out of curiosity, but Regillus couldn’t answer it.

“Keukkeuheum. It looks like he left the road and went back to another place, probably because he was a stupid human being.”

As I cleared my throat and looked around, the long-haired elf nodded in agreement.

Regillus opened his mouth to make the most of the attention.

“I, the third eye that watches over the forest, have something I must tell you.”

Then the ears of the elves perked up.

Confirming that he was concentrating on himself, Regillus opened his mouth.

“Her Majesty died while confronting her fallen Mother Tree.”

“To give us time to escape…”

“Her Majesty the Queen…”

The news of the queen’s death engulfed the elves in confusion.

And that was the situation he wanted so badly.

Regillus suddenly tightened his throat and shouted.

“But aren’t we proud elves!”

As his booming voice resounded, the confused elves turned their heads toward him.

“His Majesty left me these words before he died.”

Let’s catch our breath for a moment. The elves wait for his words to follow.

Satisfied with the appearance, he spat out the words he had in mind.

“Until the successor queen takes her place, I ask you to take care of me.”

– Cheo-eok.

He ended his speech by extending his hand toward the elves, palm facing up, as if asking for their opinion.

“Brothers! Will you recreate the glory of the Elves with me, who has succeeded to His Majesty’s noble will!”

Among the crowd, several figures started cheering or cheering.

“Unprecedented glory!”

“The new leader of the elves!”

They were all elves under Regillus.

The reaction was weaker than expected, but there is no way for them to hide the truth.

‘Now with this….’

When he smiled triumphantly.

“Regilus. Is that really true?”

Someone walked out among the elves.

“Tongue, wise man…”

As the elf, who had lived the longest among the wise men, stepped forward, the short-haired elf blurted out his words.

Seeing the sage step forward, Regillus’ expression distorted for a moment.

“Are you aware that those remarks are doubtful of Her Majesty’s final intentions?”

He couldn’t be pushed back by the sage, but he fired at him with an aggressive tone.

“No. Her Majesty the Queen must have done so.”

Surprisingly, the sage accepted his words obediently.

“Just.”

The wise man opened his mouth with an expression of futility.

“Because I’m skeptical.”

At that, Regillus was dumbfounded.

‘What is that old elf talking about? Do you feel skeptical?’

The elf is skeptical.

He was Regillus who decided that if he were to lead the elves, he would have to seat the sages as young people.

While Regillus was thinking about that. The sage continued his words.

“After living for a long time, it’s a big deal. I’ve heard all about people being cowardly. Heh heh heh.”

From noble mtl dot com

A sage who spits out a dejected laugh.

“Of course, the first time I heard it, I was naturally angry. I wondered if I, an elf, should listen to a human like that. Then I got angry with myself. At myself for not being able to refute the human’s words.”

Saying that, he was still following somewhere with his eyes.

“But do you know what’s most important? It’s that I didn’t know what I did wrong. I just lived by the Queen’s will. Then, was it the Queen’s fault? It wasn’t that either.”

His appearance, having attained enlightenment, was literally close to that of a sage.

“In the end, the reason I couldn’t refute that human’s words was because of us elves.”

“What are you talking about now!”

Regilus, who considered the wise man’s words to be sophistry, gave out a shout.

“You speak as if you are already leading us.”

“Awesome…”

Leaving behind Regulus, who had a sad expression on his face, the wise man started talking as if he was in his own world again.

“Humans multiplied their number and dominated the world. We called it savagery. But what would we become if we couldn’t say a word to such a savage being?”

“…So what do you want to say…?”

Regilos only spoke politely, but his eyes were burning.

Toward the wise man in front of you who vomits at his own words.

“Maybe it’s time to let go of the old way of thinking.”

Regilus, who had heard that far, dug into his words with his eyes shining.

“You can still be called a sage! Denying the history of elves!”

As if he had been waiting for him to say such a thing, Regilos snarled and slacked off.

“As a sage, you must not be unaware that if you, who have the highest knowledge among the sages, oppose me, who follows the Queen’s will, that will instigate a riot among the elves!”

However, the wise man muttered without changing his expression at Regillus’ words.

“Sage…”

He looked at the gathered elves.

“I wonder if such a cumbersome position is really suitable for me now.”

Then he turned his gaze to Regillus.

“You can call me stupid. But…”

He remembered what the dark-haired human had said while looking at them, and opened his mouth.

“I don’t want to be as good as Kamp.”

Then most of the elves nodded their heads at the sage’s words.

***

– Clink!

The thrown test tube shattered and the liquid inside it was scattered, causing the vines that touched it to collapse rapidly.

The porter ran swiftly through the missing vines.

“Heo-euk…! Heo-euk…!”

Apart from endurance, it was difficult to approach while being wary of all directions.

Did you get in shape for nothing?

-Kyum.

Kyadol who was trembling until just now, but once scolded him for being disheveled.

“Someone is responsible for crawling into this limb now. I should say thank you.”

– Kyuuu… !

Then, Kyadol made an expression of regret.

That must have been a habit.

There was no sense of injustice, but it was better for Kyudol to do this.

Suppressing the urge to stroke it, I estimated the number of weed killers remaining by the feeling of getting caught in my fingers.

‘The number of remaining test tubes is three. Even with herbicides in large bottles, the limit is four or five times.’

However, judging from the attitude of Makaisu, who invests vines even in himself, the weakest member of the warrior party, the situation is a bit dangerous.

The time when I was looking around to find the safest way while running.

“Porter!”

What is it? Where are you?

Talia’s voice was heard from somewhere, but the person in question was nowhere to be seen.

– Arrive.

Suddenly Talia landed in the air.

Flying Mesugaki. If he uses this, he will groan later.

Talia, who used the Levitation skill in the game, suffered a debuff that cut all stats in half because of motion sickness for half a day.

It’s a skill that you can tell she doesn’t like to use even with script lines. Are you in a situation where you have to write this?

“Where is this place?”

As soon as she landed, Talia continued to nag her.

As she was listening with one ear and letting it out with the other, she heard the closing remarks before she knew it.

“Go back quickly. It’s dangerous here.”

I don’t think the person involved in the dangerous situation has anything to say.

“How’s the situation?”

Talia asked with a frustrated expression as I ignored her own words and confidently asked me.

“…If I tell you, will you go back?”

“Listen.”

Talia looks tired of my attitude.

What, why, what.

– Wedge!

Between us talking. Although it was a vine that flew aiming for that moment.

“Ignition.”

Calmly handling her vine, she opened her mouth to look at it.

“I see! You’re really going to die here!”

I don’t want to be here either.

Hurry up and let’s go.

“Okay. So what’s the situation?”

She responded again with sweet pumpkin. Talia, who finally gave up drying, told her about the current situation.

“The hero almost succeeded in attacking, but that tree even used a shield. The goblin’s attack also missed.”

After hearing Talia’s explanation, I felt a sense of wonder.

You’ve already seen the shield pattern?

When I looked at the demon tree, I couldn’t see anything like a protective shield around it even after washing my eyes.

“I can’t see you now?”

“That’s because the hero broke it. It broke because he hit two skills.”

‘A warrior alone broke the shield?’

Certainly, the hero’s slash was somewhat unusually powerful.

It’s an unexpected but pleasant variable.

‘If the hero took over the shield instead, that part was solved. All that remains now is the decision….’

-Sssss.

Between organizing your thoughts.

A reddish, hemispherical protective film began to form around the demon tree.

“That’s it again…”

Talia cried while looking at the shield, but I looked at the shield and synthesized the keywords in her head.

A warrior who can break the shield.

A newly created shield.

The cooldown started turning.

Swoop.

And finally, the flying mesquite in front of me.

After I finished my calculations, I went straight into action.

“Talia, can you do me a favor?”

“What? Not now, but later…”

A snap.

I grabbed Talia’s hand and pushed her before she refused.

“Huh? Uh uh…?”

In the extreme low position looking down from the waist down.

“Please.”

Let’s do one thing with me.
