Mercenary - 65 Chapter 65- The Elven Queen
“Who’s there!?”, Dubs shouted as he heard this voice. “Who are you? What do you want of me?”
The guard heard Dubs shouting and came over to his cell.
“I told you to shut up, you lunatic! Who the hell do you think your talking to!? I swear the insane people I have to babysit after…”
The guard walked off, his armor making clinking noises as the metal rubbed against itself.
“You do not need to reply to me by speaking- I can hear your thoughts, unlike that other self of yours…”, the female voice replied.

Dubs quieted himself, and responded to the voice in his thoughts.
“You haven’t answered any of my questions.”
“I am Rilia, the Queen of the elves. To put the story short, the elven towns under my control were being attacked by the empire and I fled to the surface for aid. I have a unique ability to see certain parts of the future- the gift of prophesy. My second ability is the gift of telepathy, which I am using to speak to you.”
“And what did you foresee to convince you to come up to the surface?”, Dubs inquired.
“You.”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“I foresaw me and you, working together to unite all races of the world. Ever since I left for the surface, I have been seeking you out, and guiding you to the path I foresaw you taking.”
Dubs thought about this. “So that time with the dwarves was also this woman guiding me to expand my empire? Interesting. I could use this ability to my advantage.”
“I don’t mind if you use me, so long as we share the same goal.”, Rilia replied.
“Haha! Whoops. Looks like I will have a difficult time hiding anything from you. This could be interesting, but make sure not to get in my way. Why have you contacted me now?”
The Queen let out a sigh and replied. “I was captured by the surfacers, along with some of my subordinates. I was put in the exact same situation as you are in, and in order to ensure the survival of my subordinates, I agreed to the demands of the surfacers and we became members of the guild.”
“I was waiting for you to come here so we could escape together.”
“Why did you wait for me? As you may already know, I am no match for the leader of the surfacers. You would probably have the same chances of escaping with or without me- no, perhaps an even greater chance. If the numbers of escapees increase, the likelyhood of getting caught will increase.”
“We of the elven tribe are skilled with magic, however I am not a fighter, and even among the top soldiers I command, none of them currently have the ability to defeat even the lowest rankings among the surfacers soldiers. I waited for you because you are strong enough to take out low ranking soldiers who get in our way as we escape.”
“I see… So if we can avoid the big bosses then we will successfully escape, since I can defeat the small fries… sounds like a fine plan, but how do you suggest I save my comrades? I do not intend on leaving them behind.”
The woman laughed. “I have been captive by the surfacers guild for many months now. All my soldiers are trusted members of the guild, myself included. Tomorrow at 2 am, during the shift in which my soldiers are in charge of guarding the prisons, we will free all your comrades and rendezvous at the gate to the central area of the town. From there we will follow you as you rampage and defeat any soldiers who stand in our path.”
“Sounds like a plan to me. Heh heh.”
