Reincarnation of the Sword Master

"Human is here!"

The orcs came a step at once. Hundreds of footsteps overlapped and caused the earth to vibrate.

"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!"

The Orcs shouted. Anger directed at the elf turned to them.

"Let's kill the humans!"

"…it wasn't like this when I passed by."

Rossellini tilted his head and Asher frowned.

'What the hell?

It was so different from his memory. Orcs, with their eyes muddled up, just repeated the same thing.

"It's so different."

[Really? Isn't this normal?]]

Enshir said, "I'm rather glad to see you."

Orcs I know are these.]

"Kill the Human!"

Asher enveloped Rossellini in a raging life. Orcs stamped their feet.

"Meat! Meat! Meat!"

"Did the Orcs eat the flesh, too.

Asher laughed and stopped shouting. They held up their weapons with grim faces.

a half-baked bear

Asher opened his hand looking at the approaching Orcs.

"I don't know if you understand."

Kagagak!

A long line was dug between Oak and Asher when the sword was pulled and wielded from the wrist guard.

"It's self-defense if we get any closer."

A cool voice rang and the orcs flinched for a moment. But he started walking again with hideous eyes.

"Back."

"Yes."

Rossellini fell into the alley. The orc in the lead put its foot on the line. The hand holding the sword has a strain.

"Stop."

A low, deep voice rang over the orcs.

"Get back."

It wasn't a loud noise, but quietly, but surely, it spread to them in the middle of the film.

"Uh. Uh."

Orc, who was trying to cross the line, stepped back in embarrassment. The quiver spread towards the whole of the Orcs.

"You poor people who want to go back to the past. Get out of the way."

Once again, the voice rang and the orcs made their way in unison. The little footsteps were getting closer to Asher.

[Okay?]

The sword cast doubt. The approaching orcs were very short. Orcs were twice as large as humans, but the orcs in front of us were either similar to humans or smaller.

"Human?"

Orcs frowned and chin toward the back.

"Go, do your duty.”

"Woo!"

The orcs leave without disobedience to the order of the short orcs. In an instant, only the short oaks and them were left in the square.

"This place is dangerous. Don't you know that, or did you come here to kill yourself?"

"I've never seen an orc before."

"…I see."

Orc, who was looking at Asher, said slowly.

"A human being not fit for the style and tradition of this place. You're a man from beyond the Wall."

"You're quick to sense."

"It was a vain attempt. You came at a bad time."

"I'm surprised. When did you start eating the flesh?"

Orcs are not monsters but race. He did not eat meat of the same race.

"…the little man has an unbecoming knowledge."

Oak's eyes sank slowly.

"We are different from your memory. If you don't want to be a cat crushed to death by curiosity, leave."

"I think so."

"Are you all right?"

Rossellini crept up. Asher nodded and her impression eased slightly.

"…why is there someone here who can't get away from restraints?"

The orcs grimaced. Looking at Rossellini silently, he pulled back.

"The word curiosity kills a cat also applies to me. Leave, and don't come back."

"Well."

Asher walked down the street and spat out.

"I'll think about it for now."

***

"Oak Road."

The head of the Orcs. The absolute master leading the tribe.

How could such a small oak be an oak road? If you lead the Orcs without any problems with your body, it means that they are stronger than other Orcs.

"If they're shouting for the elf, that means there's an elf around here."

"Yes, it's not far away."

Asher stopped at Rossellini's quiet words. Rosellini quietly backed away in a look of anguish. Enshir asked lightly.

What's that orc? It's so different from my memory.]

"…let me organize my thoughts."

You don't need to clean up anyway. Just let me off the hook.

"You're doomed."

It was a useless idea. His goal was to be an elf. Asher walked back, and Rossellini followed belatedly.

"That's right. All the Orcs in my memory were like that."

[...was that the way you said it?]

"I did."

Orcs had a tendency to twist their words. So, someone called him a knight and a servant of Heo Rye.

[Hmm. Has the characteristics of the race changed over time?] But why now?]

"You said you missed them when you missed them.”

Orcs who are about to eat human flesh, who are swept away by madness.

"Was it all like that before?"

[Correct]

"I ate human flesh."

[Yes, there was no compromise. It was in the racial framework, but it was more like a monster. To be exact, most of them called monsters.]

"…it really doesn't match.”

Orcs he remembered were stronger and more considerate than any other race.

[It's a little bit off, but...] It doesn't make a big difference. Looks like we're going back to the past.

"Is that really so?"

Suddenly, a race tries to regain its form thousands of years ago.

It was a strange sound to look at, and something bothered me. It was similar to Doppelgänger's feeling, but I didn't mean to intrude.

It has nothing to do with you anyway.]

"That's right."

He doesn't care whether the orcs change or not. They walk their way, and he walks his way. That was all.

"Mr. Rossellini."

"Yes."

"Can you show me to Elf's land?"

“…….”

Rosellini stared blankly at him and nodded.

"Okay."

***

The reason Asher came to the North was to know the secret of reincarnation. It was assumed that it was closely related to the soul, and the elves are the beings who can see the soul. If the elf was nearby, it was natural to go meet him.

Asher and Rossellini went into a small forest beyond Oak's city. The recording obscured my view.

"I have one thing to tell you."

Rosellini said, clearing the bushes.

"Say it."

"The Elves will be surprised to see me. Maybe, it's against you. I apologize in advance."

"That's all right."

I already knew that she and the elf knew each other.

No. I came here because I knew that. Even the exclusive Elf wouldn't refuse her request.

[One, two, three...] It's coming right away.

Asher stopped walking. Rosellini, who was walking around, hit Asher's back and stopped.

"Why did you stop all of a sudden?”

"Because you came to welcome me."

"It's been a long time since we've been human."

A resonant voice rang among the bushes. The bushes split and several elves appeared.

'You're not like Arena.’

I could tell at a glance. The characteristics and facial expressions, not the color of the skin color. The expression of emotion was different. There was little in common except for long ears.

But one thing was the same.

It's beautiful.]

The elf is the most beautiful race. Their life expectancy was looking at him with vigilant eyes on the tree.

The green-haired elf is one step closer.

"I don't know what you're thinking about coming here, but you can't approach anymore. It's above…."

The elf's speech became blurred. My eyes slowly trembled.

"…you?"

Rossellini was in her eyes.

"Why are you here?"

"Good morning. Mr. Petless. Excuse me, but may I enter your domain?"

Rosellini leaned down with a blank look. The elf, called Pateless, opened his mouth with a confused face.

"Rosellini, you shouldn't be here. You can't leave them. You don't tell me."

Pateless's eyes turned to Asher.

[Sighs] I think they believe you brought them?]

"No way..."

As soon as she raised her bow with an angry face, Rossellini took a step forward.

"I went out to do business. Please don't misunderstand Asher because it was my own act."

"Your business? Well... I see."

Petris, who was confused, stopped as if he realized something.

"That's where you are. I understand."

Pateless lowered his bow.

"But you can't go out, though. Don't forget what you are....”

Pateless suddenly stopped talking.

"No, I don't think I should say."

A bitter, somewhat guilty face. Rosellini, on the other hand, was not as emotional as ever.

"Come in, please. We don't let in humans we've never met before, but... In this situation, even if you bring a human being, nothing will change.”

Pateless winked at the elves and they let their guard down. She came down from the tree.

"Follow me."

The more I followed Pateless into the forest, the more I could see the elves. It was typical of the elves to build houses among the trees and to weave a path through the bushes.

"Let's take a break here. I'll call you later."

Pateless led them to a small house and left. There was nothing in the house but grass.

[Elf is the same] There's nothing to change about things that live for thousands of years.]

"We've finally arrived."

I met an elf. I haven't noticed anything yet, but if I start talking in earnest, something will unravel.

Reincarnation and Soul.

His question could be solved. Asher suppressed his heart and controlled the ups and downs of his emotions.

“…….”

The silent gaze continued to lock in with his back. Asher turned around, Rossellini was looking at him.

"You don't ask.”

She spouted out frequently.

"Don't you think I'm weird?"

Rossellini continued with his sunken eyes.

"I know the elf. I have no feelings. I'm not normal. But why don't you ask questions?"

Asher didn't ask her a single question.

"It's meaningless."

Asher answered casually. He already knew about her.

"I made a deal with you. It doesn't matter if you're not a general being or if you're a foreign being."

"…even if I'm not human?"

Asher paused at the unexpected question. Her pupils trembled very fine, but surely.

It wasn't without emotion.]

"Same as it is."

Asher added.

"The promise was made with you, not based on the circumstances around you."

"Is that so?"

The door opened. An elf called for Asher.

"Human. Pateless is calling."

"Okay."

"Come back."

Rossellini saw him off and Asher followed after the elf.

'Do you still have feelings?'

Rossellini was afraid. I'm afraid he'll refuse, and I'm afraid he'll get away again. He seemed to have some sort of trauma.

"I don't know if he was being considerate or if they couldn't help it.’

Probably the latter. I couldn't think that the beings she served would be considerate of humans.

"This is it."

It was a small space of three giant leaves. As Asher stepped inside, the green-haired elf sat with his eyes closed.

'Finally.'

I met an elf. Pateless opened his mouth.

"I'm Pateless Horinaria. Your name is."

"This is Asher."

"Asher. Yes, I understand."

She opened her eyes.

"Why did you find us?"
