Jaeho and Samantha headed for the Embay Forest along the Sikud.
It was clearly midday, but the strangely dark forest looked like a cave.
Not to mention the abnormal vegetation seen from the beginning of the forest.
A curious plant heavenly earth with a full red and black color.
I've never been to Magee, but it was probably a similar scene.
"Oh, I think it's because I'm creating the atmosphere as close to home as possible...….”
"Whatever. I can understand.”
Jae-ho nodded.
"But wouldn't it be natural for the elves to get caught up in the decoration like this?"
"But for hundreds of years, I've never been caught by an Elf."
"......that complacency has caused the current situation!"
Of course, it was entirely due to Jae-ho's appearance.
But Sikud, who had no way of knowing it, was just bowing his head like a sinner.
"Mr. Alsia, but why don't you observe the flowers here?"
"Huh?"
Jae-ho hesitated at Samantha's sudden question.
"You've been collecting new flowers all this time, haven't you?”
"I did, but...….”
Where Jae-ho was looking, a red flower as big as a human head was chewing on a mouse.
"I don't know if that's even a flower.”
It was easy to check by using observation skills.
It's just... ...I just don't want to use observation to make sure I'm dead.
Jae-ho's pure passion for flowers, wasn't ready to accept that monster as a flower...….
"Oh, I'm sure you're interested in flowers if it's a spirit makeup. It's called Crocus. It's quite a common flower in the world."
“…….”
A code that provides unwanted information.
"Crocus flowers I know don't look like this at all...….”
[ - has been opened.]
“…….”
"Why, why?"
When Jae-ho's face hardened violently, Shikud crouched.
"Whoo.... ...yes. Let's find out now that it's like this."
As long as the illustrated book is already open, it won't hurt to fill it up.
“”
Upgraded and enhanced observation skills.
[Crocus]
[Observation progress: 45%]
[Red flowers that exist in the world of horseback, eating insects and small animals...]... (See More)]
[(Critical)]
[*Effective]
[1. Crocus digestive fluid will cause continuous damage.]
[2. (Unconfirmed)]
As expected, it showed great efficiency of 45% from the start.
'Collection...'
Jae-ho's gaze remained in the cross-country for a long time.
Kuduk-kwad drama-
Watching the chewy bones of a mouse, I didn't feel very motivated.
I'll do it when I have time.’
Jae-ho decided to just register with the provincial governor.
* * *
Jaeho and his party finally arrived at the center of the forest.
Sikud held his breath and crept away.
"But what exactly do you want me to do?”
Fighting with the elves was ridiculous.
It was impossible to win in the first place.
"You just have to let the elves leave us alone. The Elves don't want to hear a word from us, so...….”
"I've been through the elves and I know they're stubborn. But what I don't understand is you guys are demons. You were just being beaten?"
"What, what are you talking about?! You said you knew the elves.….”
said Sikud, shivering.
"Elphs are like demons......... Elf is a more demonic race than the devil!!"
"Isn't it natural for demons to turn into demons when they've lost their homes?"
"......what does that mean?”
Samantha stumped on Jae-ho's horse.
"Well, you're strong, too, anyway. But I don't understand how you're scared of your elves."
"??? What do you mean the devil is strong?"
"Isn't that why you took the Lizzlan forest?"
"Oh, it wasn't taken away because the elves were weak."
"Hmm? What does that mean?"
"The beginning and the end of the Elves' lives depend on the divine tree. E.L.F.s die when their necks die."
"That's true."
Jae-ho agreed with 100 percent.
"A god is like a pillar of the world. In other words, it's a place that's in contact with other dimensions, the world of magic and the heavens."
That's what Sikud says.
Sinmok is a place where it could be a passageway to other dimensions and was usually blocking it and preventing the three worlds from interfering with each other.
But the demons came through there and stabbed the hearts of the elves.
"As far as I know, Shinmok sacrificed himself to block the already polluted and pierced passageways. In the process, we sent the elves to the continent.”
"So...... it is the will of the gods that the elves are scattered across the continent?"
"Yes."
"But why do you know so much?”
"So, I've heard rumors! We weren't directly involved in the war at the time, and we were all peaceful demons...….”
They also secretly remembered their defense.
You can tell it's true even when you see it.….’
Of course, it remained unconvincing to claim that demons were weak.
"No, it'”
Sikud exclaimed in astonishment.
"If the devil were so strong, why would he stay there even at this moment without getting out of the Liesel forest?"
There could be many reasons.
No matter how evil they are, fighting against the whole continent is a burden...….
"Elf!"
"Ay......but not being able to make it to the continent because of the Elves...….”
"Oh, no, no. It's not that. It's really the Elf...…!!!!!”
Come on, come on!
"Huck?!!"
An arrow that flew from somewhere penetrated sharply between the arms and legs of the party.
The arrow that passed by so subtly was nothing short of the silent pressure to kill if it moved recklessly.
Jubbuck- Jubbuck-
A group of elves who finally showed up with the sound of footsteps.
"I was wondering where one of the rats had escaped and it was here.”
"Heehee!!!"
Sicud trembled at the contemptuous gaze of the elf.
"And..."
This time, the elves are looking at Jaeho and Samantha...….
“……?!!!!”
An embarrassment sprang to their faces.
For some reason, the familiar spirit of birth and the unbecoming scent of the Devil's Forest...….
"Seo, are you a spirit cremator?!!"
They recognize each other like a baboon.
Gulp-
I told him I'd help, and I followed him, but......it was agonizing to face the elves.
I don't know if it's really good for them to recognize the spirit makeup.….
'Oh, no, no, no, no.’
So what's left......that I was with the devil for a reason...….
[ E.L.F.s respect you for the title effect.]
"You must be a spirit cremator!"
"Did you come here to destroy the demons because you knew they were here?"
"......you know very well."
“…….”
Samantha's eyes on Jae-ho were filled with envy.
I thought I was really comfortable playing the game.
"Don't worry! All the demons here have been captured. We'll be able to send them all back to the horse-riding soon!"
"Hee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee!"
Seacud hurriedly shot Jae-ho in the eye.
"Wait, wait a minute. You're sending the demons back to the devil? You're not going to kill him.
"Yes, the demons that stay in the middle don't die in the first place. If you die, you'll only go back to the horse world."
[Chicud is in extreme fear.]
What is it? Why do you feel scared when you say you can go back to the horse world?’
There was a feeling that there might be a secret that I didn't say anything.
"You devil!! Get up and walk right now!!!”
"Laughing..."
Sikud, who eventually stumbled and began to be dragged away.
"Will the Spirits go, too?"
"Huh? No, I just...….”
I thought about taking my foot off, but I couldn't turn a blind eye to the eyes of Sikud, who seemed to shout, "Tinlight will never find what he left behind!"
"He, will he?"
"Okay! Then this way...... Oh, come to think of it, you had a company."
Only then did the elves who found Samantha look at her.
Tear-tear-
Though he was angry inside, Samantha heard all the stories of Sikud.
I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut because I didn't know the Elves were a much stronger species than I've ever seen.
She's already had a bad relationship with the Elves.
"Ho? You have a pretty good sense of spirituality for a human being, don't you?"”
"Huh?"
But Elf's response was quite favorable, unlike ever.
"But you don't seem to know how to handle the spirits properly yet. It can't be helped as long as you're human."
As Elf said, now she has not been getting any proper class skills since she was transferred to the Desert Spirit Knight.
It was not achieved through the level-up process and the transfer process calmly, but because of the sudden unexpected quest.
"Fan ID." Are you trying to keep that man as a guardian of the cremator?”
"Huh? Uh... well, I think it's pretty much the same.”
It was a secretary.
"Then it's not enough. If you don't mind, can we train a little?"
"Wait! Why didn't you ask me, the person involved...….”
Samantha was furious again, but the elves didn't pretend to hear.
-Gwae, are you gonna be okay?
Jaeho whispered to Samantha,
-......I'm fine.
Samantha replied, swallowing her irritation.
Although the attitude of the elves was irritating, you can learn the ghost knight class in earnest.
[*Class Quest*]
[The Sea of Fire Elves is an exceptional tribe for dealing with the Spirit of Fire. Learn how to deal with the Spirit of Fire from them.]
'It's something you have to go through anyway.’
I didn't really like the elves, but......but he will endure for his new growth.
And for Jae Ho, who is weaker than I thought.
Unlike Samantha, who thinks ......, Jae-ho was seriously worried.
It was because he had already received the Spartan training of the elves.
Patting-Patting--
Jaeho patted Samantha on the shoulder.
"Cheer up."
“?!”
However, Samantha turned her head the other way and blushed again.
* * *
It was a mountain village with a bleak atmosphere that followed the elves.
The horse is a mountain village.It's... it's....’
A log cabin made of red trees and an ornament made of bones of an unidentified beast, as if painted all over.
In the square in the middle of such a village was a collection of demons that seemed to be about a hundred.
"Sa, save me!”
"We are good demons!"
They begged desperately for the elves around them.
"Shut up! You scumbag demons!"
"I will burn all of you down and send you home!!!”
The elves were making some strange threats, hurling harsh words that didn't go with their beautiful looks.
It's a mess, but......it feels familiar.’
Jae-ho tried not to think of Elishia.
"Mr. Alsia..."! Yi, what are you going to do now? Of course you have a plan!"
While the elves around were away for a while, Sikud quietly asked Jae-ho.
“…….”
“……?”
“…….”
"Oh, Alsia......? Excuse me?"
"Hmm? Ah! Did you call me? Sorry, I was thinking about something else."
"Seo, you're not breaking your promise, are you?!”
"Haha, Lee, just hold your tongue for now."
Can't we just find what Teenlight left after they're all dead?’
It was a secret that I had such thoughts for a while.
"But you said you wouldn't die. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to go back to the horse world?"
When asked by Jae-ho, Sikud bowed his head with a somber look.
"......that's impossible."
"Why?"
"......I didn't want to talk about this, but...….”
Scared that Jae-ho might pretend not to know, Sikud brought up another secret.
"During the invasion of the Middle Ages......we were betting on alcohol with Tinlite...... has been deserterated."
Now I know the truth!
After all, this was why Sikud knew more about the invasion of the Liesel Forest.
It means if I didn't drink that day, I wouldn't have looked like this.
"Eh, it's true that the elves keep the demons from the Rizellan forest! The blind Elves are really scary!"
said Sikud, shaking himself.
"And if we go back to the horse world like this......you will be tortured forever!"
"Hee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee!"
The sound of eternal torture frightened the demons nearby.
"No....!! I can't just use the charcoal.…!!”
"Pee, phytoncide......!!! Wow!"
“…….”
Jae-ho was really confused.
