Chapter 25 – Cat Fight
=================
Liberia Elves. And the kingdom of Valois.
The delegations of the two countries gathered in the village of Urhel, the place of negotiations.
A heavy feeling of pressure flowed.
The knights swallowed dry saliva and put their hands on the hilts.
It was an adversarial relationship that had been at war just a short while ago. In addition, the elves were plundering near the border. Even though they were confronting elves made up of slender beauties, only anger flowed in the eyes of the knights of the kingdom.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Manuel Navas, who serves as the magistrate of the Elves of Liberia.”
“I am Jacques Turgot, economic advisor and finance minister to the Valois royal family.”
Representatives of the delegations of the two countries met.
Manuel stretched out his hand first.
He gave him a look of amazement.
Elves are a race that treats humans as slaves. Naturally, elves had a characteristic of reluctance to shake hands, which meant an equal relationship. However, Manuel surprised Turgot by willingly shaking hands.
‘It’s unusual, a male elf. If it was a female elf, I would have been sick of it, but I would have thought that a male elf would come as the representative of the delegation. He seems to be a person with considerable status in the elven country.’
They shook hands and engaged in a war of nerves.
The relationship between the two countries was the worst to offset the heavy atmosphere with a friendly look.
It wasn’t strange when he pulled out his sword at the negotiating scene. I came to the hunter’s village to get the Restoration back, and I didn’t come to have a friendly chat with the elves.
“But I can’t see Yushin Gilead.”
Turgo said.
At those words, Allen’s lips twitched.
The damn elves might not return Yushin. Thinking so, Allen glared at the elves on the scene.
“We have not received the ransom yet. And before the negotiations are even underway.”
“I have prepared the ransom.”
Turgot raised his hand.
Then the knights poured out the sacks they carried to Urhel Village.
Charleuk. The sound of gold coins was heard. The sack must be full of gold coins. Aether. A currency commonly used in neighboring countries, including the Kingdom of Valois. As promised, the envoys brought the ransom money for the Seven Swords of the Kingdom.
“So I want you to release the prisoner right away. It’s not like we’re going to have a good chat with each other.”
“You are in a hurry.”
“You know very well that this village is a place that is no different from enemy camps to us.”
“Yes, I understand. However, our country of elves cannot accept your request. We didn’t come all this way to get a ransom.”
“…What is your intention?”
I won’t take the ransom.
Manuel’s words meant, “We have no intention of releasing prisoners.”
Turgot’s face wrinkled. They had no intention of letting go of Gilead. Opening negotiations to receive the ransom itself was a trick. What they wanted was for a diplomatic event to be held.
“Sir Manuel, back!”
Ardena shouted.
Like a wild gust of wind, the elven warrior chief drew his sword and knocked down the fist of the knight aiming at Manuel.
Aaaaa!!!
Is this the sound of a fist being thrown?
The beast that targeted Manuel is Allen.
Her blue-haired heroine rushed at her with a mad expression.
Judging by the power of her fists, it was intended to completely turn her face into mush. If Ardena hadn’t stopped it, there would have been a terrible bloodshed. The knights of both countries pulled out their swords in the sudden unfolding situation.
‘There was no intent to kill. It was clear that he expected me to stop it. If I really meant to kill him, I would have swung my sword.’
Ardena glared at Allen.
Then, Allen also giggled as he glared at Ardena.
“Don’t act rashly!”
Cried Turgot.
At that cry, Roberdick, the seven seven swords of the kingdom, reached out his hand and restrained the kingdom knights who were in a state of excitement.
“The fact that they called us all this way must mean that they have other ulterior motives. Can I look at it that way?”
Turgot’s tone changed.
I learned that the elves had other ulterior motives. Even if it wasn’t so, he wasn’t used to using honorifics for elves and the like.
So I spoke to Manuel in a tone mixed with aggression.
“It was Gilead’s will to oppose repatriation.”
“What do you mean?”
“It is literally. Yusin Gilead himself refused to repatriate the kingdom of Valois.”
“It’s a funny trick.”
It can’t be.
Turgo glared at Manuel.
He ordered Allen to stand down.
She was like a sudden variable to Turgot. Is it called internal risk? More dangerous than the elves was Allen Roxfield.
“It is true, Yushin Gilead is satisfied with life in the Elven country. That is why he refuses to be extradited to the kingdom.”
“You can’t believe that, Elf.”
Yushin Gilead is the Seven Swords of the Kingdom.
A guardian sword who swore to give his life for the kingdom.
It was clearly the work of the elves. Manuel’s assertion that he himself refused to be repatriated was absolutely unacceptable.
So far, elves have kidnapped countless citizens while crossing the border. They plundered property and set fire to private houses. It’s not that he’s so bubbly and clumsy that he believes the words of the savage tribes of the Liberia peninsula.
“I can’t trust the words of you elves in the slightest. We demand the immediate release of Yushin Gilead. He is the Seven Swords of the Kingdom, the precious power of the Kingdom of Valois.”
“If it’s such a precious force, shouldn’t it be protected to the end? You were the ones who isolated Gilead through unreasonable battles. 2nd Prince Alphonse, because he overreacted local warfare, only the poor soldiers were sacrificed on the battlefield.”
“Are you trying to seduce me with bizarre words?”
“You are stubborn.”
After Manuel paused for a moment,
He took a deep breath and continued his remarks.
“The position does not change. It is as described so far. Yushin Gilead voluntarily refused to be repatriated, and we, the Elf nation, will respect that intention and refuse to repatriate the kingdom’s prisoners.”
“In the end, the negotiations are broken.”
Said Turgot, laughing bitterly.
As soon as the words came out, the female knight who had been silently watching from behind stepped out.
“It was rather a good thing. I will kill all of your vermin and take the Yusin.”
Allen moved.
Silent in the conversation between the representatives of the two countries, she gnashed her teeth like an unbridled wild dog.
“Back off, mad dog.”
Ardena came out.
Ardena, trying to stop Alen from taking a step closer, blocked Manuel’s way, placing her hand on the hilt of her sword.
She expected the mad dog to move.
Because it’s a monster that always drives a sea of blood. And Ardena was prepared to kill the monster. She kept thinking about Yushin’s advice, but she had no choice but to stand up to Allen in order to protect the elven delegation.
“Yeah, you have to step in. Because I was going to tear your limbs to shreds at the place where you got your Yusin back.”
“Your existence is no different from the devil. It is the role of the Warrior Chief to wipe out the enemies that threaten the Elf country. I will punish you in the name of the warrior commander.”
“I’ll rip your limbs off and throw them into the soldiers’ cockpits.”
Demon King of the Strait, Leviathan.
An alliance between the Kingdom of Valois and the Elves of Liberia.
Allen liked that. Even if an alliance between the two countries is not concluded, even if both countries are destroyed by the Demon King’s army as a result.
“Ardena warrior commander.”
“Back off. That human woman is a monster. The story is not something to be eaten.”
Manuel said to Turgo.
“Mad dog, Allen Roxfield. What the hell are you thinking bringing such a dangerous woman along?”
At that, Turgot opened his mouth.
“You elves are the first to break their promise. Cunning bastards, I didn’t trust you from the beginning.”
“Is that so? I didn’t believe you either. In the end, it’s mutual.”
“The saying that you won’t feel betrayed because you didn’t trust me is what you’re saying about this situation. Elf, there is no negotiation with you guys. From now on, I will take back the Yushin Gilead by force.”
Negotiations broke down.
It was natural to break up.
In the first place, the Elf country had no intention of returning the Restoration, and the Valois kingdom eventually suffered the disgrace of walking in vain all the way to Urhel Village.
“Allow me to draw the sword!”
Cried Turgot.
At the same time, Allen drew his sword and charged Ardena, not Manuel.
In the first place, the target Allen was aiming for was not Manuel, the representative of the elven delegation.
Ardena Valencia. Even before coming to Urhel, he had planned to kill an elf knight named Ardena. It was because Allen thought that her warrior leader, Ardena, was the culprit behind everything.
“Knights, draw your sword!”
Cried Roberdick.
Then, the knights of the Valois Kingdom pulled out their swords and aimed them at the elves.
“Ranger, aim your bow!”
“From now on, we will hunt humans!”
The twin elves hiding in the shadows of the forest shouted.
The twin warrior chiefs of the Elf country,
Together with the rangers armed with bows, they completely surrounded the meeting place.
“First, aim for that monster!”
Dozens of Rangers fired arrows at once.
Sharp arrows were shot.
The light that emitted a bluish light was contained in the arrowhead. Just as mana blades are stored in blades, mana is concentrated in arrows.
“You’re going to kill me with a toy like that?”
The flurry of arrows hit Allen accurately, but she was fine.
Rather, it was the arrow that bounced off.
Even though it was an arrow loaded with mana, she was unable to penetrate Allen’s body and bounced back intact.
“What, what kind of monster…”
“I have never seen such a monster! Did you bounce it off with your skin?”
The twin sisters shouted.
They saw
The look of Allen who reacted before the rangers even fired their arrows.
You already knew The existence of the elven rangers hiding in the shadows. How could it be because of his intuition that he even saw through the stealth of skilled rangers?
“…Are you human?”
Ardena asked.
Allen, who dropped her sword at him, opened her mouth.
“Is Yushin close by? I can clearly feel it. It’s a short distance from here. Will definitely be waiting for me so die After I kill you, I have to go pick up Yushin.”
The arrow that concentrated mana, Mana Shooting, was shot through the skin.
Allen Roxfield was far from human.
Moreover, she only knew through intuition that Yushin was not far from Urhel.
It was impossible to determine the exact location, but she was delighted to have Yushin near her. After slicing all the elves in this place, she said she would go to meet Yushin, and she burned with the intent to kill.
“What did you do to Yushin? What did you do, goddamn elf bitch. Did you ever hit abused you? I must have bullied Yushin to relieve her humiliation and relieve her resentment because of her unseemly defeat!”
“There is no such thing.”
Ardena’s armor shone in a subtle dark green.
The White Flower Arms were activated.
Not only did all of her physical abilities significantly increase, but the dark green mana emitted from her armor also began to flow from the sword that Ardena hung under her.
When she met Yushin on the battlefield, she didn’t use it. Because she didn’t want to win with divine powers. But now the case was different. It was not a fight for the knights’ honor, but a fight against a vicious and violent monster.
“Right now I feel the worst.”
“What a coincidence. Neither do I. So expect no mercy from me.”
“Yeah, unfortunately, we both have the same opinion.”
Allen kicked her to the ground.
And Ardena, too, quickly closed her distance as she sprayed her mana behind her.
“I’ll get your Yushin back.”
“He is my slave.”
As the swords collided with each other, a strong shockwave was applied to the village of Urhel.
Houses were destroyed and roofs blown off.
In a chaotic scene where humans and elves were mixed, the blows of the two strong men pierced the night sky.
