Arena, Alien hunting

89 Incursion (1)

By the eighth month, a suspicious trend had finally been noticed.

“I've picked up traces of monsters. ”

A Pine Village Warrior came to tell me the news.

Derek's back in town.

The rest of the veteran warriors also attended the meeting with their mothers.

I've been called there, practicing my violin on the Tree of Life.

The idea of attracting a new village came from me, and I have already become a very important advisor among the Elves.

“Like you said, the Arachnids had the most traces. Most of all, monsters can't travel in such a large herd, so they must be controlled undead. ”

Derek told me.

“The fact that they showed up means it's time to fight. You sent word to Maple Town, right? ”

“Of course.”

The elder mother asked, and the warrior from Pine Village nodded.

During the meeting, Derek suddenly looks at me.

“What do you think? ”

Derek seemed to trust my judgment a lot.

I cleared up the thoughts that came to my mind.

Everything is a clue.

As I became an investigator, I always remembered the truth and paid attention to everything that happened.

The same is true of this.

I noticed something about them showing up.

And the idea of biting the tail....

“Kim?"

It was only after Derek started working that I said,

“They're plotting. ”

“Trick?”

“What comes to mind? ”

Everyone's attention was focused on me.

I told you.

“It's suspicious that they intentionally showed traces. Why didn't they just attack us and show us the trail? ”

“By the way... ”

“That's so weird. ”

“It's as if I had warned you I was going to attack. ”

Derek asked.

“Then it means we'll be drawing attention to ourselves again, like a herd of zombies." ”

“Yes, you probably noticed the increased number of elves in the Brown Mountains, so the power was reinforced. He would have needed something different than a frontal assault. ”

“What is it? ”

“I made a careful guess. ”

“Tell me.”

The elderly mother urged me.

I said my thoughts carefully.

“Remember that many elves across the continent lost the Tree of Life and were attacked by humans. ”

“The more I remember, the angrier I get. If you think the Black Wizards did this to the tree of life...! ”

“How could you be so mean! ”

The mothers vomited their anger.

I continued.

“The human army enslaved the elves. Alive Elves. So what happened to the Elves who died fighting? ”

“ ……! ”

“Joo, the dead...! ”

“No way!”

Everyone's face was frightened.

“If the Black Wizard was really involved in the tragedy of those elves, what would they think, seeing the dead elves, making the same human corpse a dead zombie? ”

“You must have made it undead.... ”

“Bastards! ”

“How could you do that...! ”

Everyone was furious. There were even mothers who felt nauseous.

I'm angry too, but what about the Elves who care about their own kind?

“You deliberately showed us the trail of large monsters, and now you're plotting to turn our attention to it. We actually infiltrate our compatriots undead, who are more agile and secretive……. ”

Derek gives me a nod.

“Yes. We need to alert all villages immediately and make a mark that we can recognize." Put a belt on his arm. ”

“That would be nice. Let's all tie a cloth belt on our right arms. Women, children, all of them. ”

The elder mother's decision was made.

Derek gets up from his seat.

“I'll warn Maple Town about this. ”

“I'll go back and inform our pine village. ”

The Pine Village Warrior also woke up.

The three brown mountain villages have been warned by the Elven Undead.

Everyone was strapped to their right arm, and so was I.

And a week later, my guess was right.

That day, Derek found a group of five Elves on a night patrol, checked for straps on his right arm, and killed them immediately.

Derek summons Casa and fires a flame into the night sky to alert everyone.

From that signal to the rest of the warriors in town, we march in unison.

You scoured the Brown Mountains, searching for the Elven Undead and killed them.

Ninety-seven Elven Undead were killed that day.

Then you gather the villagers in one place and figure out the number of people and finish checking for hidden undead.

Massive overnight combat.

Our damage is absolute.

It was a perfect victory thanks to knowing and preparing and responding.

I also participated in the operation, but I never got into a fight.

It was thanks to the hard work of the other Elven warriors.

But I could not enjoy the joy of victory.

“Mmm-hmm!”

“Mark! Mark of our village! ”

“Serra! How did you...! ”

“Bastards! ”

Many of the undead were in Pine Village and Maple Villagers' families.

I couldn't keep my eyes open and look sad.

The elves who knew the Elves were cremated by Pine and Maple villages. The rest of the three villages were covered in ash.

“We all work together to overcome this crisis so that it doesn't happen again. ”

The elderly mother comforted me in the meeting of all three Elves in the village.

After the funeral, the Elves came to me.

“Kim!"

“It was really great. ”

“If it weren't for you, I'd be in trouble. ”

“You really are our gift. ”

“Mother Nature is fair. Because he gave us you as a gift instead of letting the bad people into the world. ”

“You're a genius! ”

I was overwhelmed with many compliments.

I was glad to be recognized for my abilities, but on the one hand, I felt unfair.

‘Everyone is so great and smart, why does the government exam keep failing! ’

‘I haven't starved yet, so I'm still unconscious. ’

A word of the truth from the baby angel grew up in my ears.

* * *

“Why did you fail? ”

Phew!

The man smashes the tree with his staff and bursts his fury.

He was a middle-aged man wearing a dark brown, dirty robe, pale skin, and lifeless.

The other two young men dressed in robes tightened their heads, leaving a skinny middle-aged man in a trance.

“That……. ”

“I'm still figuring out why……. ”

“Useless bastards! ”

A middle-aged man's staff flew to the young men.

Phew! Phew!

“Grrrgh!"

“Ugh!"

The men were hit in the head by one and bled out.

“It's been three years since I spent here! Three years! Other places are three years away from what's been done in a year or two! ”

A middle-aged man poured out a hysterical voice.

“Why is the tree of life cursed to wither so much healthier than before, and why have the number of elves in these brown mountains doubled in such a short time?" ”

“Cow, Song-gu. ”

“Sorry!”

The men are relentless. They apologize first.

The disdainful appearance made the middle-aged man even angrier.

“Think about it! Why do stupid Elves suddenly respond to our plan? ”

The elves they knew weren't always this shy and judgmental.

It is as relaxed and unaware as its long lifetime.

That's why the three of them are in charge of the brown mountains, where the strongest elves live without problems.

At first, they proceeded in the order they planned.

You put a curse on the Tree of Life and hired Elven Hunters to infiltrate it.

You continue to attack a swarm of zombies made of common human corpses, draining the elves of their power.

You can attack with zombies alone and then at some point strike the undead with a large monster corpse.

The elves who lost the Tree of Life and lost their strength couldn't stop the strike.

However, somehow, the tree of life overcame the curse and became healthy. Instead, another tree of life was born.

You lose all the zombies that attacked the cliff.

A middle-aged man reported to his superiors that the failure of a zombie attack was part of the operation.

And I put all the elves I cared about and cared about into the Undead.

"So what's going on here? Why did you fail? ’

An Elf Undead has been wiped out in a single day.

I don't see a single sphere of the Elven Undead that can sense black magic.

Just for one night.

The elves respond as if they were waiting.

"Older Elven girls can't be so smart! ’

Older female elves, called mothers, are good at looking long term, but are vulnerable to urgent situations that change from time to time.

Thanks to this, they have been targeting a lot of elves who are made up of maternal society.

This time, the opposing Pokémon is sharper and more alert than they are.

It couldn't have been an Elf.

‘It turned out that Earl Odin of Wolfenburg was allied with the Elves. ’

Earl Wolpenburg helped the Elves who had lost their village migrate.

On the contrary, a handful of powerful Elves have decided to aid the Earl of Wolfenburg in attacking the writer Bastien.

Elves in the Brown Mountains were different from the other Elves, hand-in-hand with Humans. Then…….

"Humans."

There is a Human giving wisdom to the Elves.

There is a human who is very smart and trustworthy enough to move all Elves.

“Teacher. ”

“What should I tell my superiors now? ”

Two useless bastards carefully asked me.

He was a pathetic middle-aged man who made these bastards his disciples.

“You have to admit failure and make a new slate! ”

“Hiic?! ”

“Well, then we……! ”

The two disciples' faces were filled with fear.

“But you can't just fail. ”

The teacher continued.

“Don't you think there's something to be forgiven for? ”

“What are you talking about…? ”

“Humans, you fools! ”

The teacher yells at his disciples with a stick again.

“We must eliminate the man who is giving wisdom to the Elves! ”

“Is there such a person? ”

“Ah... So the Elves are so clever... ”

The pathetic disciples didn't think that much of it.

The teacher shouted.

“He is a dangerous man who will be a great impediment to our plans ahead! But luckily, we got rid of it! That's how I'll live with myself! We need to get rid of him by putting everything we have in him! ”

“Even the undead have failed to infiltrate. How do we assassinate them?" ”

“They must be under the protection of the Elves.... ”

“Fools! Of course, assassination is impossible! ”

“Well, then? ”

The teacher said.

“Send in all the monsters! All out war. There is a chance to eliminate him until the chaos of war breaks out. ”
