Chapter 410: Chapter 407

Episode 407. Alliance with the High Elves (1)

Parts…!

Mana condensed along the molars.

An arrow made of magical power.

It was a sense of intimidation that could not be compared to an ordinary arrow.

Red sparks shot out in all directions.

“The power seems quite strong, but humans are arrows. Is that against us?”

“You’re doing some crazy tricks.”

“Where, let’s take a look. Shoot as many times as you like.”

The high elves on the tree laughed.

Bows are the elves’ specialty.

It is a weapon that is only allowed for those who have innate flexibility and concentration.

But you’re going to use it for someone who’s impatient?

At this point, I’m so full of energy that I can’t even speak.

“Wait! Calm down! Those people must be saying something without knowing what they are saying.”

“Ji, Jinhyeok-nim, you can’t kill me.”

However, Teslon and Sylvia stopped Jinhyeok, who were not high elves.

The number to worry about is completely reversed.

“It’s amazing. Who cares about who…”

“I have a lot to ask, so I’ll just give you one arm.”

The joke ends here.

Seven arrows were fired in an instant.

A white light cut through the air with the sound of cutting the wind.

Seeing that the trail was completely covered, it was natural to say that the elves’ archery skills were amazing.

but.

That’s it.

Kakakang! Caang!

The arrows were all smashed.

The red flashes that flew like a ruler intercepted the arrows shot by the elves in the air.

Fragments falling apart into dozens of pieces.

“what…!?”

“No, that’s nonsense.”

The astonishment did not last long.

Before he knew it, Jinhyeok pulled the second demonstration.

fast.

The process of making arrows with magic power. The arrow is also aiming at the target.

It was far beyond common sense.

Puffer Puck!

The bows the high elves were holding were shattered in the ensuing series of attacks.

“Kuk!”

When he lost his bow, he instinctively reached for the sword at his waist.

Right then.

“If you pull it out, you will die. You guys.”

An eerie voice echoed from behind the high elf’s neck.

The gaze turned from the bow to the sword for just over a second.

In that instant, the back was already caught.

“Very, Captain!”

“Suddenly?”

Half a beat later, the rest of the elves reacted.

But it was already too late.

“Eh… did I come all the way here?”

The male elf in charge of the garrison gulped down a dry saliva.

Looking back, if I even lifted a hand, my neck would be blown away.

Knowing that, I couldn’t think of rebelling.

“I’m sorry, but I’m the one making the request. Answer me if you know.”

“Yeah… I see.”

“You are free to believe or not, but I was the one who detoxified the parasites first.

“I-really?”

The high elf’s pupils dilated rapidly.

Until now, I have been through all kinds of hardships due to the infectious agent.

Even powerful warriors and spirit beasts had a hard time demonstrating their strength because of that.

But if you only know the antidote, the story is completely different.

I was able to create several opportunities to counterattack.

“In addition, I will also hand over the Mine I took as prisoners. As an expression of friendship. Well, elves have their own laws.”

“…”

When they reached that point, the eyes of the high elves completely changed.

The gaze of suspicion and contempt is nowhere to be seen. Before I knew it, I started to be filled with admiration and respect for Jinhyeok.

“It’s called Paragon. It seems we misunderstood you.”

“I’m Kang Jin-hyuk. I’m glad the misunderstanding has been resolved.”

Jinhyuk also smiled brightly.

But why?

The mouth is smiling, but the eyes are not.

Rather, a darker life lingered than before.

“However, I misunderstood world affairs and said I’m sorry. I don’t know anything else, but I have to compensate for the wounds in my heart.”

Jousting lasts a long time.

If there is no proper apology, it may last a lifetime.

“Compensation. How… you mean?”

how

“Theslon.”

“You mean me?”

Teslon, who was suddenly pointed out, tilted his head.

“Yes. You.”

The experienced will know best.

What is the price to pay if you make a mistake or do something wrong?

Jinhyeok lined up the clothes he bought from the coin exchange in advance.

All of them were clothes that had shapes that could not be put into words.

“Teslon. What nonsense is this man talking about?”

“This… isn’t it true?”

“If you’re kidding us, do it in moderation.”

“Ohhh. So everyone can’t wear it?”

“Of course! What do you see the warriors of the noble forest as!”

“Don’t underestimate the elf’s pride!”

“Hmm. That’s right. Well, it’s okay to refuse. It wouldn’t be too bad to put on a corpse.”

Jinhyeok brought out ‘Hongryeon’ again.

The red blade touched the high elf’s neck at once.

This time, the flesh started to burn little by little just by touching it.

“Seriously? If you do this, you’ll really have to go to war with us?”

“The elders will understand if you hand over the antidote and prisoners. You are an inevitable loss in a war.”

It’s not really the atmosphere to have a conversation.

Eventually, the elf captain sought help from Teslon.

“Teslon… Stop this human quickly. Aren’t you really trying to kill him? But if that’s what you who came with me…” ”

Give up.”

“what?”

“It’s better to just… put everything down and accept it. Trust me. I know that feeling better than anyone else.”

Teslon looked at the elf captain with deep eyes.

That’s… It’s an eyeball that only those who have experienced it can have.

Desperate outbursts and denial of reality.

And beyond all that, to put yourself down and give up.

It was the kind of eyes that contained the life of an elf.

“…Damn it.”

Everything… Wrong.

Now there is no other way.

The elves hung their heads powerlessly.

＊＊＊

A rather strange scene unfolded inside the elven stronghold.

red-orange-no-cho.

Magical girls dressed in colorful, manly clothes entered one after another.

It’s a bonus that he carries canes taller than he is.

Seeing such a strange sight, the elves inside the fortress did not dare to ask questions.

“…”

“…Mom. Isn’t that the defense captain?”

“Shh. I can’t use it if I look through it.”

As if possessed by a ghost, he just watched Jinhyeok go all the way to the innermost part of the fortress.

and present.

In a cozy room made of wood, the elder in charge of this fort and Jinhyeok were having a meeting.

“…So. Our warriors didn’t listen to us, so we gave them some education?”

A high elf elder with a long beard poured green tea into a cup. It seemed

to

calm the mind and body a little.

“Yes. I’m going to be with you in this war, but I think it’s necessary to organize the ranks to some extent.”

“How safe is this guy! Elder! Are you still listening?”

“Stay still. Why are you shouting so loudly about what you did well in that outfit? Even though the house is already small, holding a magic wand. Tsk tsk.”

“Oh, no, this is…”

The captain of the defense blushed and blurted out his words.

The elf elder turned his head to Jinhyeok again.

“Certainly, the conditions you proposed are not bad. We also provide the most necessary things. I can move the troops here. I can do something with my authority.”

“You mean you accept a temporary alliance?”

“I think so. No matter what anyone says…”

The elf elder smiled warmly.

“We should trust the benefactor who helped our clan. Who would we trust?”

I had already heard all about Jinhyeok’s activities through Sylvia.

About what effort a human had made for the elves and how he had not bothered to brag about it even after he had achieved such achievements.

I had no worries because of it.

Because from the moment we spoke, we had already decided to be together.

[You have earned the trust of the high elf elder ‘Tian’.]

[All elves you meet for the first time after that will increase your friendship by 200%.]

[You will be given a title equivalent to 100 elven rangers.]

The blue that appears in succession status window.

With this, the minimum preparation is complete.

“Tell Paragon about your needs. I’ll provide anything.”

“Thank you. Then…”

Jinhyeok bowed his head briefly and stood up.

Then, accompanied by Paragon, Teslon, and Sylvia, who looked like they were chewing shit, they headed to the outskirts of the fortress.

“How many rangers can you mobilize at most?”

“If it’s only Ranger, it’s about 300.”

“300…”

Jinhyeok’s eyes narrowed.

If Remia, a high-ranking demon, and the Seven Deadly Sins came together, the temple’s defense would be tough.

‘Even though Melena and Tristan are infiltrating inside, I’ll have to create an opportunity to contact them in order to get information from them.’

You won’t be able to contact them through the system under heavy surveillance.

“Gather not only rangers, but also warriors. We need to include nobles who can handle the spirits.”

“Looks like you don’t intend to end with reconnaissance.”

Paragon’s face hardened.

“…No way, you’re not going to fight head-on, are you? If you do, the damage will grow out of control.”

In the first place, guerrilla warfare was all about minimizing sacrifices.

No matter how strong the High Elves were, they weren’t strong enough to compare to the Demons who had a huge number of Demonic Beasts and Parasites.

But what are you thinking…

“If you are going to recklessly drive the elves to death…” ”

No, there will be very few sacrifices from the elves. It only takes me, T-Bone, and Frey to enter the temple.”

“We just need to draw attention to get you guys into the temple, then… You mean this?”

“No more, no less, just go there.”

“Really. You’re a human being who only chooses crazy things. To think that the three of us will go there… Well, that’s good. Let’s do it hotly to draw attention.”

Paragon nodded.

＊＊＊

Kuku kuk kuku!

Red fountains of blood gushed along the entire temple.

It was for the purpose of further condensing the demonic energy inside through blood magic.

and.

Remia was sitting on the throne under the inverted cross altar.

“By now… he must have moved on.”

“Yes. I’m sure they’re in a hurry since they’ve been hunting and stimulating even the elves.”

“Whoops. Okay. I will be able to see the results soon.”

This work took a lot of effort in various ways. It was

a direct order from Guntaper, the great demon king and master of the demon realm.

There shouldn’t be.

‘Kang Jin-hyeok…’

Remia gazed intently at the portrait of Jin-hyeok painted in blood. The

opponent must be certain of his victory

.

Why not? Even though the demons

are stupid, a human named Nietzsche had a skill that

was quite usable… I don’t understand how he was treated so vainly.

The power to nullify his own ability. ‘Nihilism’.

Even the residents were difficult to deal with.

But when I heard that Nietzsche was attacked by a player overnight… I couldn’t understand it at all. Unless

I knew how to deal with nihilism in advance. Nietzsche was the first to encounter it. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that was a disaster itself.

“But, if we say there’s a rat on our side, it’s roughly the same. Isn’t it? Our sneaky mouse sheep?”

Remia’s gaze turned to the naked woman tied to the altar.
