Chapter 072

It seemed like the apostles of Athena and the elves here had been in a relationship for quite some time.

That’s because he didn’t show any hostile intentions toward Monos, who suddenly opened the door and appeared.

Even to those of us who came with her.

This meant that her identity was guaranteed.

“It’s no big deal. “I just came because I wanted to find out something.”

“Is that so. “There’s nothing special, right?”

“sure. “What could happen?”

The elf in the lead nodded as Monos smiled.

He was very handsome.

He has a deep voice, looks that can be called handsome, and is tall.

The perfect man seen only in novels and movies smiled slightly.

On the outside, he looked like he was in his early 30s, but the way he turned his back and looked at us reminded us of an older, middle-aged man.

Did you say that an elf’s age cannot be easily inferred from his appearance?

The moment I made eye contact with him, I realized that this man had been around for a very long time.

“The one behind you is a human male.”

“That’s right.”

At those words, the elves’ eyes focused on me.

All of Athena’s apostles were women, and even Athena had the title of a virgin god, so all of her apostles refrained from contact with men as much as possible.

The apostle of Athena appeared with a man.

It seemed to be quite interesting.

“The apostle of Athena came to Elfheim with a human man… .”

“Excessive attention can sometimes be toxic, elder.”

“I know what you mean.”

The elf elder bowed his head in response to Monos’ warning.

Elder.

I heard that you can see traces of time in your eyes.

“Is there anything we can help you with?”

Monos looked at me after hearing his words.

The atmosphere was urging me to answer.

“Where do dark elves live?”

“Why does a stranger ask about them?”

As soon as the dark elves were mentioned, the eyes of the elves, including the elder, became very wary.

“I have some personal business to attend to.”

“… … .”

There was silence.

The relationship between elves and dark elves was not very good.

Since they were born with opposite attributes from the moment they were created, there was no way for them to have a good relationship.

They were two races that were completely separate from each other because they felt uncomfortable with each other and fights broke out whenever they encountered each other.

Even though I knew it, I mentioned dark elf in front of them.

It was for confirmation.

How much they hate dark elves.

‘How different will it be from what I saw in my previous life?’

Knowing that, I could proceed with my plan.

The air becomes heavy.

There is a lot of wariness in the eyes looking at me.

It was only natural that a stranger suddenly asked about the dark elf’s whereabouts.

Some were openly showing their hostility.

It was not directed at me, but at the dark elf who was not here.

‘It’s still the same.’

I could feel the hatred for dark elves just by looking at their eyes.

At the same time, their eyes turned to Monos next to me.

“Who is this person? “Why did you bring me here?”

“I should have just told you. “Excessive attention can be toxic.”

“No matter how much of a benefactor you are, I have to listen.”

Monos looked at me as if he was resentful of the elf elder’s strong reaction.

I had no idea that the moment I spoke about Fenrir, something worse might happen.

So I stepped forward.

“I have something to give you from the dark elf.”

The elves’ brows furrowed at my words.

“… Items to receive from the dark elf… “You mean?”

“One of the wicked dark elves stole my belongings.”

“Uh-huh!”

“How so!”

The intestines were agitated.

Monos’ eyes widened as he looked at me at my words.

The look in their eyes was like, “What on earth are you doing this for?”

Of course, if you think about it, it was a ridiculous fact.

How could the dark elves in Elfheim steal things from humans? And he didn’t even need to borrow the power of Athena’s apostle for that matter.

But facts don’t matter to them.

Elves will accept as fact any gossip that causes them to hate Dark Elves.

“Those dark-hearted people cannot be trusted. But I can’t tell you. “Even mentioning them is an insult to us.”

It seemed like it would be like that.

“All right. “You’re saying I have to find it myself.”

I placed my right hand on my left chest and bowed politely as a greeting.

It was the most polite greeting among elves.

When I showed elven manners, the eyes of the elves who looked at me with displeasure eased.

“If you go that far.”

The elf elder cleared his throat and nodded.

Was it because of the long lifespan?

The elves of this world were a race that valued conventions more than necessary.

Even among people, there were many unnecessary courtesies.

Don’t run unnecessarily on the street after the sun goes down.

You shouldn’t monopolize conversations with people.

If you walk longer than a certain stride, you look vulgar.

You must eat two meals a day, and the eating time should not exceed one hour.

There were many conditions that took my breath away just by hearing them.

Even in my past life, I could vividly see him insisting that he would keep those rules while blocking the Abyss.

It was something like a kind of pride for the elves.

Mentioning dark elves was also an act of ignoring such conventions.

Still, I didn’t bother to mention it.

‘I really need a dark elf.’

Looking at their reactions, it seemed almost impossible to find out their location from them.

Fortunately, the rudeness caused by breaking custom was resolved with perfect courtesy, so the anger on the elves’ faces faded.

Rather, I think I was satisfied because I had something to talk about about dark elves.

But just one.

Monos glared at me as if he didn’t like it.

“You will need to talk clearly about this matter.”

However, she smiled at the elf elder’s recommendation that soon followed.

“Now that you’re here, would you like to look around? At the moment, I was in the process of producing the dye that Athena requested. “I crushed dragon bee flowers to make a vivid purple dye containing mana, and this is very good.”

Monos looks at me.

“It doesn’t matter if you look. “I’m not interested, so I’ll leave first.”

At those words, Monos looked at the elf elder and shook his head.

“sorry. “I don’t think we’ll be able to check today.”

“Is that so. It’s a shame. then… .”

I thought the conversation was going to be long, so I nodded and left the room.

“I also have to catch the thief who stole my things, so I’ll go first.”

Seeing that, Lee Su-yeon followed behind me, and Monos quickly bowed his head to the elf elder and left the place.

“We might need the elves’ help. There’s no need to give them a bad image… .”

“There is no need to tell the elves. You know. “How much they hate Fenrir.”

“I heard that the relationship between Fenrir and the elves is not good. But elves are fundamentally good beings. Don’t ignore those who need help… .”

“It’s not possible because he is a good being. Do you know who was most welcome when Fenrir was sealed, other than the Norse gods?”

Monos shook his head.

“Fairies and elves. They most actively supported it. “To the extent that Odin was surprised.”

“… … .”

“If they knew that I had come to unseal Fenrir, they would immediately draw their swords and attack me.”

“Is it that much?”

Monos, who came from a completely different mythology, seemed unable to feel it with his own skin.

It’s even more so now that I’ve lost my memory.

“Athena and all, you must have ignored everyone and attacked?”

Suyeon Lee added one more word.

Elfheim is one of the nine worlds in Norse mythology.

It was a world where Ragnarok was brought about by Fenrir.

Therefore, to the elves, Fenrir was as dangerous as a god from another world.

Of course, Fenrir didn’t harm them in this world, but didn’t he actually eat the gods?

Are you telling these people to release Fenrir?

Even if I didn’t aim the bowstring right away, I had to be thankful.

“Then why did you talk about the dark elves?”

“It was to see how much they hate the dark elves.”

“There was no need to provoke him.”

“It’s clearer to see it in person than to hear it in words.”

“… … .”

Monos closed his mouth.

“You saw Mr. Monos too. “I’m talking about elves who believe the ridiculous lies of humans just because the dark elves told them.”

“… … .”

“I wanted to see that. “I hate it so much that I even believe ridiculous lies.”

“It would have been dangerous if it had failed. “He may have become an enemy of the elves.”

“It doesn’t matter. “I will soon become their enemy anyway.”

“yes?”

“Would you let the human who liberates Fenrir remain silent?”

“But if that happens, Athena’s reputation… .”

I almost snatched her words away.

“Don’t worry that Athena’s name will be tarnished. Didn’t you make an oath? I will never say that. Mr. Monos was also deceived by me. “Just like the elves did.”

Monos closed his mouth.

“So Mr. Monos, never mention Fenrir’s name. “It will be difficult later on.”

“… … .”

Monos looked at me in silence for a moment and then slowly opened his mouth.

“I think I know why you beat Athena in an argument.”

“Is that so?”

“yes. “You’re scarier than I thought, you.”

I smiled while looking at Monos.

“I think you’re overestimating me.”

“Dojin, I think you underestimate yourself.”

“Please analyze a little more and let me know. “What a great guy I am.”

“Of course.”

As we moved like that, we left the elf city made up of numerous tree houses.

Elfheim’s refreshing tree forest welcomed us.

The forest, which was much greener than the city, was so dark that even a single ray of light was scarce.

And as we moved further and further into the outskirts, the light became darker.

As if I had come down underground.

‘It’s starting to take off.’

This was the underground border where the dark elves were located.

If you ask why it is underground when it doesn’t even go down to the ground, you can answer like this.

Underground was just a conceptual expression.

Yggdrasil is the world tree that embraces everyone.

They are not evil enough to create a basement to imprison someone.

It was just that the trees, which had grown too much due to her power, blocked the light, creating complete darkness.

As we faced the entrance to the outer forest, Monos spoke as if warning.

“You have to be careful from here on out.”
