Episode 128. Small steps in the green forest
“You’re awake.”
It was a soft voice filled with warm interest.
This is my first time hearing a tone like this.
It’s as beautiful as silk.
And it was refreshing.
Just listening to it makes me feel like my mind is being purified.
“… … .”
The moment I turned my head following the voice, the being I saw was surprising.
The woman I only heard about!!!
A woman whose appearance I have never seen before in my life.
Hair the color of the blue sea, free from any contaminants.
Pure white skin without any blemishes.
He’s mid 170’s and has a model-like height and slender body.
And the most important feature is the eyes!
Light blue eyes similar to hair.
It appears to be encrusted with the finest, shining sapphires.
An unknown aura surrounded such a woman.
Looks like an angel from the Bible.
A nobility and neatness that cannot be expressed in words.
I was sure she saved me.
I got up from my seat.
Fortunately, the pain has disappeared.
“Thank you for saving my life.”
I bowed my head in greeting.
It was clear that he was alive.
“Every living thing is beautiful in itself.”
The way he spoke was peculiar.
My current state that I discovered while greeting a woman.
“!!!”
He was topless.
I turned my head in embarrassment and quickly looked for my clothes.
I don’t have any of the clothes I was previously wearing.
On one side of the bed, a top that looked like it had been dyed with indigo dye was visible.
I quickly pulled it on and put it on.
The mysterious woman was not at all fazed by my shirtless appearance.
Meaning you’ve already seen it several times.
The fabric is smooth and soft like silk.
Even when I wear it, I don’t feel any jamming or the weight of the fabric.
“Your body is back to normal. “I had a long time of memories.”
“A long time?”
“Green buds and warm sunlight gave us beautiful blessings and then disappeared.”
“!!!”
She seems to enjoy metaphorical conversation.
It seems like spring and summer have passed.
Well, the air smells like fall.
“ha.”
A short sigh came out.
This means that a long time has passed to recover the damaged body.
I was hit by Spirit Blade and 8 Circle magic.
Still, I am still alive.
Just being free from the aftereffects of the Reverse Blood Potential Treatment Method was amazing.
He would have already died, or even if he lived, he would have been paralyzed.
However, the external appearance was fine.
Being alive itself is a miracle.
“Thank you for looking.”
I don’t think there’s any need for a long greeting.
I bowed my head again with sincerity.
“Those who came through the elf oath will forever be precious guests.”
Elf oath?
This is my first time hearing this.
In fact, it is accurate to say that I did not understand it properly.
Why am I here… … . Besides, elves… … !
“For the first time in my life, I saw a human being, not just small steps in the forest.”
“!!!”
I looked at her again after hearing her words, and only then was I surprised.
Small steps in the forest and the word human.
It is not a term used to refer to one’s own race, but to refer to a different race.
I had a strong question.
And then I realized.
A woman who has an inhuman appearance and speaks noble language… … .
“Eh, elf… … .”
Yes!
The mysterious woman is an elf.
Unlike humans, ears with pointed tips stick out.
Her appearance is so mysterious that it cannot be described and the atmosphere surrounding her.
“I would like to formally greet you. This is Ryrein, a branch of the forest, a small step into the green forest. “Humans call them elves.”
She gave a unique greeting, spreading her hands to her sides like branches.
Suddenly, I lowered my head again.
“… … “I am Frausch, a humble creature of God.”
Since I don’t know how elves greet each other, I introduced myself in a humble manner.
“He has the beauty of peaceful eyes like an elf. “You are a humble creature of God.”
She smiles.
Everything around became brightly lit.
A being that makes stress disappear just by looking at it.
“Lyraine, are there any items I have… … .”
The elf’s oath.
I can guess what it means.
This is a bracelet filled with Behemoth.
But I was also curious about the materials of the remaining items.
In particular, the long order command was the most important.
Sigh.
At that time, the door opened and a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his 50s came in.
A man with wrinkle-free skin and long white hair tied up.
“You’ve finally woken up.”
“yes… … .”
I don’t know who it is, but I can see affection in the smiling man’s eyes.
This hospitality is different from the local rumor that elves hate humans.
“It is a fornier, a small pillar of tree branch in the green forest. “Seeing how healthy you are, I guess you were filled with the spirit’s blessings today as well.”
“Blessings of morning dew. welcome. “Elder Fournier.”
Lyraine greeted the man.
“The sweetness of green dew. “Noble Lyraine is here today as well.”
The two of them greeted each other so naturally.
According to the story, the man, Fornier, is an elder of the elf clan.
Such an elder also treated Lyraine with care, calling her noble.
Lyraine is a woman who looks much younger than her elders.
If an elder treats you like this… … .
Lyraine seems to be a high elf.
The information obtained from the Imperial Knight School library is useful.
Among similar races, elves usually live a long lifespan, up to about a thousand years.
Elves have an affinity with spirits from birth.
They can immediately summon spirits with similar tendencies to their own without difficulty up to intermediate level.
Once you reach a certain age and become enlightened, you become a high-level spiritist.
High elves are an elf race with abilities that are superior to those of ordinary elves.
In short, an elven noble.
They have a superior ability to communicate with spirits and have a longer lifespan than ordinary elves.
If the High Elves gain enlightenment, they can summon the Spirit King.
That’s what it said in the book.
Incredible sights and connections.
“How can we be negligent towards the one who holds the elf’s oath?”
“Your merciful blessings abound.”
Elf Elder Fornier smiled.
And he looked at me with eyes like a quiet lake filled with the weight of time.
“You pledger whose name I do not know.”
“It’s called Frausch.”
“It was Mr. Frausch.”
Elder Fournier treated me with respect, calling me an ally.
“What is an oath?”
I was really curious.
Obviously, I received a bracelet from a demon elder.
however… … . Out of nowhere, you’re an elf pledger.
“Ever since the elf clan was born in the Green Branch, there have been times when they have faced many dangers. Three of those dangers were impossible to escape. At that time, I made tokens of the elf oath to the beings who extended the life of the Green Branch by resolving dangers such as violent storms.”
“ah… … .”
“If any being appears holding the token of the oath, all elf clans must do their best to care for and help that being. The elf’s oath brought by Mr. Frausch is the final token of the oath that has been returned.”
I understood.
But what about the demons helping the elves?
“Elder Fournier. To whom was this final pledge presented? And how did I get here?”
“The clan was also surprised when Mr. Frausch broke through the central barrier of the village. 30 years ago, the Elven Elder Council made a decision to cut off all communication with humans. “An anti-defense barrier magic circle has been activated, so anyone other than a 9th circle wizard can enter.”
Circle 9? The level of legend???
“I discovered a magic circle created to automatically teleport the bracelet owner when his or her life is in danger.”
“What you mean by discovery… … .”
“I think the original owner of the bracelet knew the coordinates of this place and added magic to it. “Our Blue Tree clan excels in the field of medicine than other elves.”
“ah… … .”
After hearing the explanation, I understand the context.
But the curiosity still did not go away.
On the contrary, it brought me to my senses!
“Who received the last Elven Covenant Bracelet? And if your medical skills are excellent… … . Can my body heal like it used to?”
Expectations grow.
Elves are the second greatest mythical beings after dragons.
“Mr. Frausch is a man with as many desires and curiosity as the Annapoli birds.”
Annapoli bird???
I am a bird who does not know.
“The last pledge is a secret. The promise of this covenant has been kept secretly known only to the elders. And the elf’s oath is not important.”
“yes?”
“What the clan values is the elf oath itself. I made a promise with the oath that I would only listen to the requests of the one who possesses this elf oath. It does not matter for what reason the pledger shared the pledge token. And the answer to the last question is: yes or no.”
Going crazy.
Maybe it is or maybe it isn’t?
“Please explain so I can understand.”
“Mr. Frausch, I will answer that question.”
Lyraine stepped forward.
“When Mr. Frausch first appeared, his condition was very serious. “Only the high priest of Raine, the god of healing, could cure it.”
I know even if you don’t say it.
“The creature’s original life energy was depleted. So the clan used the elf’s water of life.”
“An elf’s life supply?”
“This is the water of life prepared for the elves by Rayna, the god of flowers and blessings who is very fond of the clan. God’s blessing is created in the cup every 500 years.”
500 years?
Not even 50 years?
“If humans drink the Elven Water of Life, they will have a lifespan similar to that of the Elves.”
“!!!”
The legendary nectar of the gods!
“It is also a mysterious water that can bring life back to life if you do not die and still have breath.”
“That means… … .”
“Mr. Frausch had used up all his life energy, so the effects of the medicine were slow to appear. “I was able to wake up now because the water of life replenished the energy of life.”
It is said that without God’s blessing, it could not have been revived.
“And the future ahead… … “You must find it yourself, Frausch.”
“… … .”
“It’s just a pity that the clan has no way to do anything more.”
After finishing the explanation, Lyraine smiled like a saint.
That is correct.
Just being alive is a miracle, but asking for anything more would be a thief.
He also responded with a smile.
The correct answer is to find it yourself!
When he practiced the Reverse Blood Potential Great Technique, he risked death.
The present, where we have been led back to the path of life rather than the long tunnel of death.
Uduk.
My fist gained strength.
The Kaishar Empire that made me like this!
I plan to give you a pendulum of hot causality as a gift.
And Fiona came in my dream!
There is no way to confirm whether she is alive or dead, so we must find her.
There is still a lot of work to do.
The will is burning brightly.
at that time.
“Master Frausch owns items that even a greedy elf would covet.”
“???”
