Eryndor, Adam Hill, walked into the adventurers' guild building. His new human form blended in perfectly. The kingdom was on high alert against elves with unknown origin. No one suspected a thing.
Adam approached the registration table. "Excuse me," he said with a smile. "I'd like to register as an adventurer." The clerk raised an eyebrow. "You're a bit old for this, aren't you?" he scoffed. "Adventuring is for the young." Adam chuckled. He knew well he was around thirty-five years when he was still on Earth. But it's perfect for infiltration as everyone knew that the dark elf Eryndor had the looks of an early twenties young elf.. not a mid-thirties human male. "Age is just a number." Adam said. The clerk shrugged. "Suit yourself. Fill out the form." Adam took the parchment and began filling the registration. "Name: Adam Hill. Class, Magic-Sword User." The clerk handed Adam a badge. "Rank F. You're starting from the bottom." Adam took the badge, unfazed, he pinned it to his cloak. Next, Adam approached the notice board. Quests ranged from monster hunting to retrieval missions. Adam scanned the board, seeking challenging quests. A noble's requests caught his eye. "Perfect," he thought. Adam chose a quest. "Eliminate the pack of wolves terrorizing Lord Harrington's lands. Difficulty, High. Reward, 1,000 gold coins." Adam smiled. "This will get their attention." He accepted the quest. He took the parchment from the questboard to the clerk. The clerk raised an eyebrow. "You sure you're ready for this, new adventurer? There are easier quests.?" Adam nodded. "No, I want this one. I was born ready for this." Adam hired a carriage, heading to Lord Harrington's lands. As they rode, the coachman glanced at Adam. "Excuse me, sir. I've driven many adventurers to Lord Harrington's estate." "What's your advice?" Adam asked. The Coachman said. "Mind your manners, sir. Lord Harrington's a royal court member." "But?" Adam sensed a hesitation. The coachman leaned in. "He's... impatient. Irrational, some say." Adam nodded. "I'll be cautious. Thank you for the warning." The coachman smiled. "Welcome, sir." After an hour's ride, the carriage stopped before a grand mansion. Adam paid the coachman. "Keep this carriage ready. I'll need it later." The coachman nodded. "Yes, sir." Adam stepped down, gazing at the mansion. A butler emerged, dignified and poised. "Welcome, Adam Hill. I am Butler Jenkins." Adam bowed. "Lord Harrington expects you. Follow me." Adam trailed Butler Jenkins into the mansion. The interior was lavish, with ornate furnishings. Adam's eyes adjusted to the opulent surroundings. Butler Jenkins stopped before a large door. "Lord Harrington's study. Please, enter." Adam took a deep breath. Time to meet the impatient Lord Harrington. He pushed open the door. Butler Jenkins led Adam to a lavish reception room. "Please, sit. Lord Harrington will attend to you shortly." Adam sat, admiring the room's elegance. A minute passed. The door swung open. A middle-aged man, dressed in an Italian swallowtail suit, entered. His scowl deepened as he approached Adam. Lord Harrington's piercing gaze scrutinized Adam. "So, you're Adam Hill, the adventurer." Adam stood, bowing. "Yes, Lord Harrington." Lord Harrington's voice was stern. "I have one condition, I want you eradicate those wolves within one day." He emphasized. "If you fail, you won't receive a single coin." Adam nodded calmly. "I accept your terms, Lord Harrington." Lord Harrington's scowl remained. "Butler Jenkins will accompany you." He gestured to the butler. "He'll show you the wolves' last known location." Butler Jenkins bowed. "Yes, milord." Adam stood. "I'm ready when you are, Butler Jenkins." Lord Harrington's gaze lingered. "Don't disappoint me, Adam Hill." Adam's determined nod reassured him. "I won't, Lord Harrington." With the briefing concluded, Adam followed Butler Jenkins. His mission had just begun. As they rode, Butler Jenkins turned to Adam. "I apologize for Lord Harrington's behavior, sir. He's usually not that... abrasive." Adam waved his hand. "It's nothing. I understand." Butler Jenkins nodded. "Lord Harrington's a good man, truly." The carriage halted at a rocky path. "We're near," Butler Jenkins said. Wolf howls echoed through the air. Adam dismounted. "Leave the rest to me." Butler Jenkins nodded. "Good luck, Adam Hill." He turned the horses around. "May fortune smile upon you." With a final nod, Butler Jenkins rode off. Adam watched him go. Then, he walked towards the cave. The wolf howls grew louder as Adam entered the cave. A pack of wolves lay before him. Their black and brown fur was different from the wind-wolves' silver furs. These were ordinary wolves. Adam drew his sword. He was ready to cast his magic should the need arise. Time to complete the quest. Adam charged forward. The wolves snarled. Ready to defend themselves. Adam drew his sword, casting the flaming sword spell. The wolves took a step back out of fear, and this made Adam smile, but his joy didn't last long as a larger wolf emerged, its eyes gleaming. "I am Fangshaw, beta to our Alpha," it declared. "In the Alpha's absence, I defend our pack." Black lightning crackled around Fangshaw's body. Adam readied himself as Fangshaw launched at him. Adam underestimated the wolf's strength. He was knocked against the cave wall. Dazed, Adam struggled to stand. He realized that this wolf named Fangshaw had more strength that him. Adam regained his footing. He charged forward while casting the wind spell of the wind-wolves. Accelerated movement fueled his attack. Adam punched Fangshaw's jaw with his right hand. The wolf stumbled. Adam performed a backflip. His sword flashed in the dim light as he threw it at Fangshaw's right leg. The sword bit deep. Fangshaw yelped. Black lightning intensified. Adam stood his ground, he hadn't even used his trump card yet so there was nothing to fear. Adam approached the fallen Fangshaw. Suddenly, a thunderous voice echoed through the cavez "Stop, Human!" Adam froze. His body wouldn't move. A colossal wolf emerged from the shadows. Fur as black as night. Deep purple eyes. "I am Lucius Von Black, the last living Druid Alpha," it growled. The grated voice sent shivers down Adam's spine. Lucius's gaze locked onto Adam. Adam felt his strength seeping away. The more he looked into Lucius's eyes, the weaker he became. Adam's vision blurred, His legs buckled, and then he collapsed. Everything went dark. Adam lost consciousness. "Not again" these were last words he spoke before his consciousness drifted to God knows where.

Adam's eyes fluttered open, greeted by blinding sunlight filtering through the lush foliage. Groggily, he raised a hand to shield his face. Confusion swirled as he assessed his surroundings.How... how am I alive?Memories of the truck's impact still lingered, yet Adam felt no pain. He tentatively explored his body, finding himself intact. He could remember very well how his friends had betrayed him. They set him up, got him so drunk, which was suspicious, he never drank above his limit, which means they must have drugged his glass, and when he wasn't himself anymore, they took him outside in the guise of helping him get home, then they pushed him into the speeding truck. Totally unforgivable… But why was he still alive then?With a deep breath, Adam sat up, hands splayed on the damp earth. The ground's cool moisture seeped into his skin. Towering trees surrounded him, their trunks robust, leaves rustling softly.As Adam stood, a startling realization hit him.. He was taller, signific

They looked at him with disgust and scorn.Eryndor wondered, "Why do they hate me?"Then, he realized the truth. Perhaps the old Eryndor was unpopular among the elves.He pushed aside his doubts and kept walking. He knew Heartwood Palace would be the biggest building in the forest. Only royalty and nobles would live in big houses.After twenty minutes, the palace appeared. It was made from giant trees, with beautiful carvings that glowed.Eryndor approached the gates, where two stern elves guarded them."Halt!" one said. "Why are you here?"Eryndor stood tall. "I'm here to see Lyrien. We have unfinished business."The guards looked at each other in uncertainty."Wait," one said, going into the palace.Eryndor waited, his heart racing.

A shabby wooden fence materialized, surrounding a makeshift village.Two goblins, armed with wooden spears, stood guard at the entrance.Grimp approached, his eyes pleading. "I need to see the clan chief."The guards sneered, pushing Grimp away. "The weak have no pact with the Gobrou clan."Eryndor frowned and stepped forward, hand on the hilt of his sword."Flaming sword," he muttered, focusing his thoughts.His sword erupted in flames, casting flickering shadows.Grimp gasped, terrified. The guards stumbled back, eyes wide.Eryndor's authoritative tone cut through the air. "Take me to your Chief."The guards nodded frantically, like chickens pecking rice."Y-yes, sir!

As the sun began to set on the victorious battle, Eryndor and his goblin entourage made their way back to the village, carrying the lifeless bodies of the orcs. The goblins chattered excitedly among themselves, their eyes gleaming with pride and accomplishment. The spoils of war would provide them with a much-needed feast, and Eryndor knew that this would boost morale and bring the tribe closer together.Upon arriving at the village, Eryndor gathered the goblins around him. "Today, we proved our strength and resilience," he declared, his voice echoing through the ruined village. "But our work is far from over. We must rebuild and ensure our village is secure and prosperous."Eryndor's gaze fell upon Grimp, the battle-scarred goblin who had fought bravely alongside him. "Grimp, your loyalty and bravery have earned you a place by my side. From this day forward, you will serve as my second-in-command."Grimp's eyes widened in surprise, and he nodded solemnly, accepting the responsibility
Elven Rebirth Chapter 7. Battle at Elysia
Eryndor and his band of goblin warriors crept back into Elysia Forest under the cover of darkness. Grimp, familiar with the layout, led the way through the shadows. They moved swiftly and silently, avoiding detection by the elven guards.As they approached the encampment of the goblin workers, Eryndor's anger grew. Before him lay rows of rusty cages, each filled with goblins. They huddled together, their eyes sunken, their skin pale and clammy. Malnutrition and mistreatment had taken its toll.With a quiet nod, Eryndor ordered his warriors to get to work. They moved from cage to cage, expertly picking locks and freeing the captives. The goblins blinked in confusion, unsure of what was happening.Grimp helped guide the freed goblins away from the cages, urging them to move quietly. Eryndor watched as his people stumbled out of their prisons, some needing support from their fellow goblins.Just as the last cage was opened, a figure emerged from the darkness. An elf, whip coiled in his h

As Eryndor and his goblins fled back into the darkness, the surviving elf guards made their way to the Heartwood Palace. Exhausted and wounded, they sought out the Grand Elder and Lyrien to share the tale of the brutal attack.Upon arriving, the guards recounted the events of the battle, telling of the unexpected ambush and the devastating loss of life. They spoke of Eryndor, revealing that he was the mastermind behind the assault and the one responsible for the mowing of over forty of their comrades.However, the Grand Elder and Lyrien listened to the guards' account with skepticism. They found it hard to believe that Eryndor, a respected member of their community, could be capable of such treachery. The idea that he would lead a band of goblins in a massacre of his own people seemed unthinkable.The Grand Elder's expression remained stern, his eyes narrowing as he considered the guards' words. "You are certain it was Eryndor?" he asked, his voice laced with doubt.Lyrien, too, looke

Eryndor sat, reviewing the battle's outcome. He hadn't personally participated in the battle due to the small number of enemies, but it seems the next time the humans and elves attack, he won't be so lucky."System, kindly give me a detailed report," he commanded."Ding!Battle summary. Enemy casualties numbers to 500 humans, 300 elves.Goblin casualties numbers to 200. Host has earned 975,000 chaos point.Congratulations, Host!

Eryndor arrived at the goblin village, tired from his journey. He could see the goblin village was still prospering even at his absence, truly Grimp was doing a wonderful job. The training goblins were happy to see their King return. He was their motivation.After having the usual meal of grilled meat and fruits, Eryndor summoned Grimp immediately.Grimp rushed in, concern etched on his face. He hadn't even known that Eryndor had returned."Eryndor, my lord," Grimp said, bowing.Eryndor nodded and then asked for a detailed report on the day-to-day affairs of the goblin village, which Grimp recounted, but then he hesitated when he got to a point. Eryndor could see the hesitation on his face.“What seems to be the problem?”"The elven army prepares to march against us," Grimp reported.Eryndor's expression did not change as Grimp had expected, rather Eryndor smiled.“I've been expecting that. It's not just the elves though." Eryndor said. "The human King has allied with them. Their armi
Chapter 17. Return
Eryndor stood tall, surveying the wind-wolf pack before him. The remaining wolves, now under his command, awaited his orders."Listen, wind-wolves," Eryndor began. "Take your young and march to the dark forest. Seek out Grimp, the goblin leader. Tell him I sent you."The wolves exchanged glances, then nodded.The female Alpha's sister, now the pack's leader, stepped forward. "We obey, Eryndor. What awaits us in the dark forest?""Protection and strength," Eryndor replied. "Grimp will provide for you. You'll become part of something greater."The wind-wolves howled, eager to begin their journey.As they gathered their young and set off towards the dark forest, Eryndor watched.Once they vanished over the horizon, Eryndor reached for the space pouch.A small, ordinary-looking pouch, it possessed a separate dimension.Eryndor had acquired it from the Adventurers Guild.He opened the pouch, revealing a vast, empty space.With a swift motion, Eryndor began storing the fallen wind-wolves in
Chapter 16. Pack Leader
Eryndor trekked across the Windy Plains, his eyes scanning the horizon for any sign of the wind-wolves' dwelling. He knew wolves often lived in caves, so he searched for any nearby.After hours of walking, he spotted a small cave in the distance. As he approached, he noticed wolf pups with shimmering silver fur playing outside.Eryndor's mission required ten wind-wolf hides. Using the pups as bait seemed like the most efficient way.He crept closer, trying not to startle them. The pups, oblivious to danger, continued playing.Eryndor swiftly grabbed one of the pups, its tiny body wriggling in his grasp. The pup yelped and whined, its siblings scattering.A ferocious growl echoed from within the cave, growing louder.Eryndor smiled grimly. His plan had worked.The Alpha wind-wolf emerged from the cave, its eyes blazing with fury.Eryndor held the pup firmly, his hand wrapping around its tiny mouth to silence its cries.The Alpha wind-wolf charged, its wind-manipulated speed sending dus

Morning arrived, and Eryndor woke up feeling refreshed. He stretched, smiling, as this was his first good night's sleep since arriving in Solaris.He headed to the bathroom, brushed his teeth, bathed, and changed into clean clothes.Downstairs, the innkeeper greeted him warmly. "Good morning! Breakfast is ready."Eryndor's curiosity grew. "What's on the menu?""Mashed potatoes with diced tomatoes, carrots, and a slab of boar meat," she replied.Eryndor's stomach rumbled loudly, as if on cue. The innkeeper chuckled."I think you're hungry! I'll add an extra plate for you."Eryndor grinned, embarrassed but relieved. "Thank you, I'm starving."The innkeeper smiled and led him to the dining area.As they sat down, Eryndor noticed the cozy atmosphere and the enticing aroma of food."Your cooking smells amazing," he said.The innkeeper beamed. "I'm glad you think so. My name is Elara, by the way.""I'm Eryndor," he replied, shaking her hand.Elara handed him a steaming plate. "Enjoy your me
Chapter 14. Chessboard Pieces
Eryndor gazed calmly at the slavers. "Before we begin, could you tell me how to get to Kryptoria?"The burly man and his companions erupted into laughter."Look at this elf, wanting directions!" one of them chuckled.The burly man grinned. "You're on the right path, elf. A few klicks from here, you'll see Kryptoria's walls. Three silver coins for verification, that's all."Eryndor nodded graciously. "Thank you for your cooperation."With a simple wave of his hand, Eryndor unleashed his feral aura.The pressure pinned the slavers to the ground, their faces contorted in terror.They succumbed to fear, all fell unconscious and were out cold.Eryndor searched their pockets and bags."Now what do we have here?"His counted the silver coins which had the engraving of a dragon, and a single gold coin which also had the engraving of a dragon."Wow! That is a great haul! Three hundred silver coins. I recall that Adara mentioned that a hundred bronze coins is equaled to one silver coin, and one
