The guards who had been discussing earlier, finally summoned the courage to open the door. After opening it, they fell to the ground, anticipating an attack from Ethan. However, he merely looked at the two of them and smirked.Ethan walked out of the dark room, he noticed the special appearance of both of them, they have long ears just like Elfina, they are really elves. "Where is your princess?" Ethan asked, his eyes gleaming darkly.The two elf guards still on the ground, lifted their shields, as if they were expecting an attack."Where is Princess Elfina? She summoned me here.""Oh, you're the hero she summoned," After hearing that he was the hero, they stood up from the ground and bowed their heads to him in a polite manner. "Welcome, great hero. We will lead you to the special hall for special guest and inform the royals of your arrival."They found the courage and led Ethan to special hall, it was big, magic crystals lit up the place giving it a marvelous glow. The scent he
Immediately after they met, they bonded, Ethan and Elfina. She trusted Ethan even though they had only met once and had barely spoken to each other for more than one minute.Two elf maids rushed into the special room after Frederick had left, they bowed to Elfina and Ethan before speaking."My princess, great Hero, the king would like to meet both of you," they said in unison.Elfina nodded her head, holding Ethan's hand, she led him toward the throne room.As they entered the throne room, a sight of subtle grandeur greeted Ethan and Elfina.Unlike most throne rooms, this room had a lesser amount of gold decoration.The absence of excessive gold was compensated by a graceful arrangement of ornate decorations. The walls bore intricate tapestries depicting mythical creatures and serene landscapes, while a soft, gentle light filtered through stained glass windows, casting colorful patterns across the smooth marble floor.In a corner of the room, a glass-domed ceiling showcased a small ga
At first, Ethan thought the elves were being greedy and protective of the Life Tree. He believed they didn't want to share with the dark elf race due to hatred, but the actual reason was different. He understood why King Milan didn't want to risk giving the Life Tree to the dark elf race.''What do you want me to do, then? Wipe out the dark elf race or protect the tree?'' Ethan asked.''No, we want you to protect the elves and rescue them, just how you rescued my daughter from her last expensive endeavor, the one she spent months trying to complete.''As King Milan spoke, Ethan could tell that he was hiding something from him. He looked at Elfina and saw her fidgeting with her fingers, like someone who's nervous."Is there something you are hiding from me, something you don't want to tell me?" Ethan asked.King Milan and Elfina let out loud breaths after hearing him ask that question. It was as though he had the ability to read their minds and tell exactly what they were thinking."Ac
Ethan and Xethros reached a special part of the Pit of Unforgiveness after walking past myriad strange creatures of different races. In this part of the Pit of Unforgiveness, there was no other race other than elves.Both the normal elf race and the dark elf race; actually, one can easily see the difference between the two races. Normal elves mostly have blonde and black hair with milky or pale skin, but the dark elf was different. They have long black or white hair; their skin was darker than the normal elves.They sat in their cells with anger blazing from their eyes whenever they saw Ethan and Xethros looking at them. As for the dark elves, all they did was laugh maniacally when they saw the two of them.Ethan found one of the cells holding a dark elf. He immediately took an interest in that particular dark elf and asked Xethros to open the cell. Xethros did not question his order or try to advise him like King Milan; he brought out the key from his pocket and opened the locks lead
What Ethan got from that dark elf was not just some senseless words that holds no meaning although some held no meaning at all but at a point during the little blabbering the dark elf senselessly gave both of them useful information that would help the elf race greatly. Xethros is a soldier, he understood those terms and Ethan who wasn't from the elf world understood the strange terms as well. Both of them after hearing it agreed to work together, they returned to the palace and Ethan was able to make the request for Xethros to become his aide. Elfina asked to be his aide, she wanted to be the one with Ethan since she is a fellow system user and her special powers might come in handie sometimes. Even the king declined her request, she is the princess and she is met to be protected in the Strong walls of the palace. King Milan agreed without much words, Milan is his trusted soldier, Ethan is the Great hero that is here to save their kingdom, not just their kingdom but the whole el
Ethan spent the night in the palace of the Elf King and thoroughly enjoyed his stay there, to be honest. The place was entirely natural, with no life threats.Also, in this world, he didn't have to worry about his businesses in Luxuria or the one in China, which was already becoming one of the biggest in the world.There were lots of new things to learn and study, and he also had the time to understand the background and power level of this world.In this world, there were different races, but two were the main ones: the elves and the dark elves.There were other races like trolls, giants, and even dwarves in this world, but they had smaller numbers.In this world, there was a power level to measure the strength of their magicians:- Apprentice- Senior magician- Expert magician- Noble mage- Monarch mage- Magic sovereign- Ascendant- Demigod- GodBecoming a demigod and even a god in this world was possible after reaching a certain stage of mastery of the magic that exists here.A
Ethan and Xethros arrived in a land of lush greenery, the grass was slender and fresh, their smell was revitalizing and nourishing.As the wind blew, they gave off a strange harmony as they whipped in the air with one another; their sound was peaceful even though the significance of the action was supposed to be tense."Sir, we are in the land of life. The tree of life is just far ahead, but this place is infested by dream giving insects. They are demonic insects that spray fluid, causing illusions to whosoever it touches," Xethros warned the moment they stepped their feet into this beautiful land of greenery.Ethan nodded his head, and together both of them walked deeper into the place; their feet matched uniformly on the ground as they walked.Suddenly, buzzing sounds reverberated in the field, the sound was loud and tense, almost like a whole multitude of bees rushing towards them from the rear."Sir, this might be a sign of dream giving insects approaching," Xethros warned again,
"Wise thinking from a dumb elf. When did the elf start coming up with good plots? You guys are so good, so good you couldn't even save your damn prince. He was killed by the dark elves you call inferior. Who's inferior now?" The dark elf laughed and cursed at the elves.Ethan stood there only listening to all his nonsense without taking any action. He wanted the dark elf to make the first move."What do you want, you want to fight me?" The dark elf asked, one of its eyes slightly raised in a questioning manner.Ethan nodded. "I want to face someone using the same magical power as me. Let me see how strong you are compared to me. Are you going to be a coward and run, or be a man and fight?""Hehe, the day I run from an elf is the day I end my life with my own hands. I can never run from despicable, greedy beings like you all.""Then be my mate, let's fight. For your sake, I'll use only magic." Ethan smiled at the dark elf.The dark elf gritted his teeth and placed his hands inside his
