Side story. For High Elves and Planes (2)

“…Albenius? A missionary of hope?”

“Or an instructor? Like tweezers, I will pinch the parts you need.”

“So what are you talking about?”

“You said you lost to Gwangryong? It can’t even hurt, and it’s overwhelming.”

“I didn’t wear any of them!”

“Then how about a scratch?”

“Who are you to insult me?”

“I told you. It’s called Albenius.”

“I am asking for your identity. I’ve never heard of anyone like you.”

“Of course. Because I didn’t reveal it.”

“You look stronger than me, so why didn’t you step forward? If so, to Gwangryong…”

I wouldn’t have been defeated.

Yulia clenched her fists.

“It’s a familiar phrase, as if you’ve heard it once. If you did, you would have caught Gwangryong?”

“···Yeah. Why did you stand by?”

“Then ask the other way around. Why should I step in?”

“Because we have to stop the apocalypse. That is natural.”

“Why should I prevent the apocalypse?”

“Are you trying to play puns with me?”

“I? with you? Is there any reason why?”

Albenius shrugged.

“If the world perishes, you too will lose your place. Is that reason not enough?”

“I’m sorry, but I’m not from this dimension, so I don’t have that.”

“···I beg your pardon?”

Yulia narrowed her eyes.

What the hell are you talking about? It wasn’t a conversation she could understand.

Aren’t you from this dimension? then warrior? But he didn’t look like a warrior. then god? No, there is no way such a god exists. If God can step out in the first place, there is no need to use the warriors.

“Still, I hope this place doesn’t come to an end. because i have a friend So that’s where I came to you.”

“···What do you mean?”

“High Elf Hero, I have come to make a proposal to you.”

“My name is Julia Karsen.”

“Yes, Julia Karsen, wait, Julia? A name is more familiar than a face.”

“Do you know me?”

“Sometimes it seems like it and sometimes it doesn’t.”

“What? Such an ambiguous answer?”

“It’s laying the groundwork. There is nothing unconditional in this world.”

Julia frowned. The opponent felt extremely light. Unlike her seriousness, she didn’t seem serious.

How can I do that before the great thing called the end? The hero who was praised as the only hope was defeated by Gwangryong.

‘Maybe he didn’t even care about the hero from the beginning.’

It is certain that he is stronger than her. The proof is that you can’t really feel anything even though you’re having a conversation.

When the other person shuts her mouth and she closes her eyes, there is no presence at all. how can that be

“Anyway, I came back to the main topic and came to give you a proposal, hope.”

“I don’t know what the hell you mean. Are you saying that you have the heart to fight Gwangryong?”

“Unfortunately, I can’t fight. I can’t be directly exposed. This conversation also has a sense of déjà vu.”

Albenius scratched his chin.

“What does that mean?”

“I can’t give you details. Right now. But I can teach you.”

“…you’re teaching me?”

“To catch the light dragon. The condition is to cooperate with me later. What do you think?”

“…If I learn from you, can I defeat the Kwangryong?”

“I promise. you will be a hero The hero who cut the head of the light dragon.”

“…”

The worry didn’t last long. Yulia nodded.

I don’t know who they are or why they help. However, she suffered an overwhelming defeat from Gwangryong. If you see a ray of light in pitch-black darkness where you can’t see a way, there’s no reason not to follow it.

Even if the requirement at the end is destruction, if you don’t follow it, you will be destroyed right now.

“···like.”

“It’s pretty resolute. It won’t be bad for you either. No, rather, if you are the Yulia I think you are, I would rather welcome you.”

“Who the hell is the Yulia you know?”

“Let’s talk about that later, and I’m going to assume you’ve accepted it.”

“Are you going? You said you were teaching me?”

“Not here right now. do not worry. We will meet again.”

Just follow the flow and don’t reject it.

“See you in the Elven.”

“…Elven?”

It’s the first name I’ve heard of. Do you want to know where the heck it is?

“You have to tell me where!”

“Are you feeling it too? that it exists.”

Albenius is gone.

* * *

“The Elven sent an envoy.”

The first expedition of the allied forces failed and the warriors were also defeated, but they could not help doing anything.

The coalition gathered in the imperial ecliptic and started a meeting for future measures.

Various items were discussed, such as the treatment of refugees from the collapsed kingdom, the dynamics of monsters, and the formation of the 2nd coalition, but this was the biggest piece of cake.

“Everyone please read it.”

Elven’s correspondence went back one after another.

“…these cheeky bastards!”

“How dare you look at us as…!”

“It’s blatant.”

“Even when I asked for a dialogue to form a coalition, there was no response.

The representatives of each country who came to the islands with full power did not hide their anger.

When the letter reached Julia, she understood why they were angry.

“I have to send the warrior, but I will cooperate. Isn’t the hero a little too arrogant!”

“No matter how strong the Elvens are, do you think they can prevent the end without us?”

It was a common political fight.

‘Elven?’

However, in Yulia’s eyes, the name Elven caught on more than the content.

The place Albenius was talking about was definitely Elven.

“Where is the Elven?”

“Kuhmm, that’s…”

“It is the kingdom of elves. Warrior.”

The representative of Marden Kingdom, Marquis Dolbes, answered cautiously. It was because Yulia was a high elf, so she couldn’t carelessly talk about elves.

“Didram also had a kingdom of elves, right? Why didn’t they join in the first place?”

“When we created the alliance, we sent the facts several times to be together, but there was no response until the end.”

“I see.”

In fact, he had roughly guessed that there were elves.

She was a high elf, and as soon as she was summoned by the Daydram, she instinctively sensed that the World Tree had taken root in this land.

I wondered why the elves didn’t join, but I guessed it. Even in her dimension, elves and humans did not mix well.

There was a clash, and it was only at the end that we joined forces. I thought it would be the case this time as well, so I tried not to cause trouble.

If it weren’t for the message from a man named Albenius.

‘As it goes?’

Is this going to go as written in the letter? Send her to the Elven?

I don’t know. But there’s no way someone like that would lie.

“I wonder why you were silent. Humans and elves will not be separate to prevent the end.”

“you’re right.”

Anyway, since she told me to follow the flow, it seemed like there was no need for her to step out.

“But it is true that we need Elven’s help. Since the power of the light dragon is stronger than expected, isn’t the possibility low?”

‘The name···.’

It was the first prince of Arkan Kingdom, Wolf Arkan.

“The letter says that as long as the hero is a high elf, the elven has a way. You cannot completely ignore this.”

“But the hero… um, can’t you do something like that?”

A noble looked at Yulia and swallowed her words. However, there was no one who could not understand the meaning.

“Of course, it’s not entirely possible, but they have a world tree. Don’t you know the relationship between the World Tree and the High Elves? Also, there’s no way elves would tell meaningless lies in a situation like this, so it would be anything but the truth.”

[If you send the warrior to Elven, there is a way to block the light dragon more smoothly.]

It was part of what was written in the letter. Since Yulia had been defeated by Gwangryong, the alliance had no choice but to draw a taste.

But sending Yulia means handing over control over the hero. It’s just that the person who has Yulia can’t openly say it because Yulia is there.

“Never mind me. I don’t think there is a separate race to prevent the apocalypse.”

“···thank you.”

“The elves of the elves need to learn a little about the hero’s heart…”

The meeting got longer. became more blatant.

“Aren’t they holding out because they are the safest! Foolish bastards!”

“It’s cheesy, but it’s clever. The timing is exquisite.”

“No matter what, it’s so suspicious that you’re doing this as if you’ve been waiting!”

Elven was located in the forest at the southern end of the continent. Because the apocalypse started from the north, they were able to survive until the very end due to their location.

‘It’s a bit petty.’

It was the same elf, but a little like that.

‘Is this what the elves think?’

I honestly don’t know. Arban’s elves were innocent and not good at politics. Perhaps it was the work of a man named Albenius.

‘I don’t think I’m going to let go easily.’

Is it really what Albenius said?

“But it is also true that the help of the elves is absolutely necessary.”

“I’m sorry, hero, but we were defeated. As of now, there is no answer!”

However, unexpectedly, there were those who agreed to accept Elven’s request. And most of them were kingdoms that didn’t seem to be on good terms with the Empire.

‘Do you think elves are better for the Empire to take the lead?’

Even in this situation… Everyone puts the interests of their own tribe and country first. However, I couldn’t understand that it was like this until the end of the world.

At the end of the long meeting, ‘I cannot accept Elven’s request. We have to negotiate.’

The envoys of the Union headed to Elven.

But time was not on their side.

The monsters that had destroyed the northern kingdoms and were silent began to move south all at once. The number exceeded Allied expectations.

“I think the Allies were the problem. Monsters eat the life force and blood of living things.”

“You’re saying that thanks to us sending the Allied Forces, we ate the corpse and were able to get out in numbers?”

The price of union failure was greater than expected. Humanity had no choice but to put all their efforts into preventing the monster from descending south.

Yulia swung her sword at the forefront.

“The hero has arrived!”

“Long live the warrior!”

He killed and killed unknown, hideous, bizarre, disgusting monsters.

As the days passed, her sword became sharper. The authority became more familiar and the strength of the hero grew by hunting monsters.

The wind, which had stopped being a mere gale, became a storm, and the swordsmanship in harmony with the wind was newly improved.

I have hope. If I block and block and block like this, I also have the conviction that I will be able to defeat Gwangryong someday.

But time was not on her side.

“Aagh!”

“The wall has fallen! Everyone, retreat to the castle!”

The offensive of the monsters became stronger day by day, and mankind was constantly pushed back. The kingdoms disappeared one by one.

“… Hero. I’m sorry, but can you go to the Elven?”

And the coalition eventually made a choice it had to make.

* * *

“This is Elven…”

Yulia set foot in Elven with the imperial escort.

The lush forest, the overflowing spirit, and the stronger energy of the mother tree.

It was colder than ever. It was as beautiful and warm as the forest she lived in before being destroyed.

“Welcome to. Welcome, Champion Julia Karsen. My name is Phillips, who is enshrining the mother tree.”

Phillips was the only high elf of the elves and the de facto leader of the elves.

Humans often call it a kingdom, but the elven system is different from a kingdom, and the elves call him a warchief.

“The mother tree wants to see you. I’ll see you The others, please wait here.”

Phillips led Yulia to the World Tree.

“Did you have to?”

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“If the elves helped, the damage could have been reduced to a minimum.”

I felt it when I came to Elven. The world tree here was bigger than Arban’s world tree and overflowed with energy. Naturally, the level of the elves was also high.

“I just follow the will of the mother tree.”

“You mean the mother tree gave that order?”

“I will explain the parts you are curious about directly.”

Yulia soon arrived in front of the World Tree.

“…a protective shield?”

It wasn’t to protect the World Tree. The moment she stepped inside, Yulia realized.

It was to protect the elves, not the world tree. The suffocatingly thick spirit was too much for the young elves, and it was on the level of being German.

– Nice to meet you. It’s a high elf from another dimension.

One little sparrow, the spirit of the mother tree, looked at her and smiled.

“Did I say we would meet again?”

And the owner of the finger the sparrow was sitting on was sitting on top of a branch of the World Tree, looking at her.
