“How…?”
May panicked.
The information about the seed of Yggdrasil has already spread to the dark elves?
It was information that could not be leaked because elder Yodry had set up a barrier.
Furthermore, it hasn’t been long since Yujun talked about the seed of Yggdrasil.
It made no sense that the dark elves had detected the existence of the seed of Yggdrasil and attacked them.
“You don’t have to know. If you want to live, give me the seed of Yggdrasil.”
“What? You want a fight to the death? Are you really going that route?”
“We don’t want to shed blood either. But if you refuse to comply, we’ll have to.”
“…Are you sure you can handle the consequences? You know that conflicts between the different races in the interracial alliance is strictly forbidden.”
“That’s why you guys should cooperate.”
“…Why are you doing this?”
“Well.”
After several emotional conversations, the dark elves raised their weapons.
“You’re outnumbered. Human. Think of your best interest and make the right choice.”
They declared that they would kill even the elves.
So a human like Yujun, they will not hesitate to kill.
That’s why Yujun has no intention of offering the Seed of Yggdrasil.
He could see clearly what the dark elves wanted.
‘Rather, the moment I take out the Seed of Yggdrasil, it’ll become more dangerous.’
Once the Seed of Yggdrasil was placed in his inventory, the dark elves could not kill Yujun immediately.
“Shut up, Kerial! I don’t know how you found out, but we’ll never hand over the seed!”
While Yujun was thinking about how to answer, May spoke up first.
“Really? I’m sure I warned you.”
That’s what the dark elf Kerial said as he kicked off the ground.
It’s incredibly fast even for Yujun.
May and the other elves couldn’t follow Kerial movements.
Kerial, who came in front of an elf in an instant, stabbed a dagger in her stomach.
Psh!
“Ahhhhh!”
Grabbing her stomach, the elf fell down, then Kerial stepped back and aimed his dagger at another elf.
The elves stepped back in a hurry.
“Do you really want to see your own people die?”
Kerial shouted loudly.
Swish! Hik!
The remaining two elves fired their bows, but Kerial swung his dagger twice and the arrows were easily deflected.
‘How are they no match for him?’
Yujun realized that Kerial’s force was incomparable to the elves here.
‘Can I win?’
The dark elf, Kerial, looked quite strong.
‘I think he’s at least level 200.’
Yujun can only believe in his items now.
And the capabilities of his equipment.
The 25% amplification effect of the original player title can also not be ignored.
‘I could really die.’
It occurred to him that his hands were sweating, maybe from nervousness.
Yujun was watching and evenly distributing his 176 undistributed points.
‘Now I just have to somehow last 3 minutes.’
His attack and defense will increase by a percent after 3 minutes of battle while the Fury set is worn.
The effect is strong enough to reverse the current situation.
And it’s already been a minute since the dagger grazed his armor.
‘There’s exactly two minutes left.’
The armor brushed by the dagger earlier was fine.
It had failed to penetrate his Fury set’s defense.
‘It’s possible.’
Yujun was confident.
That’s when Kieral took his dagger to the neck of the elf that was stabbed in the stomach earlier.
“Well, I’ll give you 10 seconds. Human. Hand over the seed of Yggdrasil.”
Yujun frowned.
‘Damn it, are you kidding me?’
It was an unavoidable situation since he has the Seed of Yggdrasil.
Two elves looked at Yujun pitifully.
“Wait a minute. I’ll take it out soon.”
With a sigh, Yujun put his hand in the air to open his inventory.
Kerial and the other dark elves watched him intently.
It looks like he would throw a dagger at any moment.
Yujun first took out the Seed of Yggdrasil.
At a glance, the dark elves who were not far away from the seemingly ordinary Seed of Yggdrasil was able to recognize it immediately.
“That’s definitely it.”
“The human had it.”
“The item was certainly on him. Go tell her.”
“Okay.”
A dark elf then disappeared.
Once more, Kerial’s confidence was shown.
Yujun can’t believe he’s sending one of his dark elves somewhere else when the situation hasn’t been resolved yet.
He wouldn’t behave like that unless he was confident.
“Human, put it down on the ground.”
“Who will guarantee my life?”
“I’ll keep my word.”
“I’m sure you will.”
“…Are you doubting me?”
“Who wouldn’t doubt it? It’s obviously a lie.”
It would also be a good idea to abandon the elves here and join the dark elf’s side.
However, the relationship with them has already gone sour.
It was now best to get out of this situation somehow and go to the entrance where there were many elves.
“You better hand it over while your condition is still good. Wouldn’t it be too miserable to spit out the Seed of Yggdrasil with your limbs cut?”
Kerial was threatening fiercely.
However, he would not just hand over the Seed of Yggdrasil.
“What are you going to do with the seed of Yggdrasil?”
“You, a human being, don’t need to know.”
“But I’m the owner of this item. It wouldn’t hurt to tell me? You’re not going to tell me? Where?”
“You’re too relaxed. Are you confident in your skills?”
Kerial squinted his eyes.
“That’s not it. It’s too unfair to just give it away. I didn’t get anything in return.”
“Okay. If you hand over the seed, I’ll give you a few high-grade items. Is that okay?”
“No. That’s not enough.”
“…Ha. I don’t think it’s time to be greedy.”
“Sorry, but I can’t give you the seed.”
“…”
A sudden shift in bearing.
‘It’s time.’
It has been three minutes since he was hit.
Yujun smiled faintly.
‘I dragged it out.’
Yujun took out a ‘Skunk’s Dark Clouds’ from the inventory.
[Skunk’s Dark Clouds]
Grade: Hero
Option: As soon as this flask, manufactured by the alchemist ‘Viter,’ is broken, a large amount of smoke is released. Smoke lasts for a long time.
He put the Seed of Yggdrasil into his inventory and quickly threw the Skunk’s Dark Clouds on the ground.
Bang! Shwahshwa-.
The glass bottle broke and thick smoke covered the whole area.
Its effect was quite sizable.
Everywhere nearby was quickly filled with smoke.
The smoke was so thick that it was hard to see even the things right in front.
Kerial, who used his nose in this situation, rushed in after throwing his dagger at Yujun in a hurry.
After avoiding Kerial’s thrown dagger, Yujun also took out an Odorless Apple and swallowed it in one bite.
The smoke completely obscures his body while the Odorless Apple removes his traces.
There is no way Kieral will be able to find him.
Yujun was far from where he was originally standing.
“A despicable human being!”
Who’s really despicable here?
The sensitive dark elf, Kieral, believed in his excellent senses.
So without seeing Yujun, who had completely hidden his traces, he thought he was far away.
Yujun, who went behind Kerial, stabbed his sword as hard as he could.
Kerial, with his head pierced by the sword, was instantly killed.
[Level has risen!]
[Level has risen!]
[Level has risen!]
[Level has risen!]
‘Even killing other races can increase my level.’
The mechanics from War of Gods, where you can gain experience from killing other races, seemed to remain the same.
Now that he killed a dark elf, there was no turning back.
There was now complete enmity between Yujun and the dark elves.
He quickly ran forward.
There was no sound thanks to the Odorless Apple’s effect.
Because of this, the remaining dark elves were no different from Kerial and they could not sense Yujun approaching.
Without hesitation, he swung his sword at the neck of the dark elves.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
He dealt with all three dark elves before they could react.
[Level has risen!]
[Level has risen!]
Unlike the tense situation, it was rather a vain end.
It happened because they underestimated Yujun’s low level.
Of course, Kerial and the dark elves being careless could not be faulted.
The level difference was too noticeable.
However, it has already happened.
The dark elves losing their lives could only be blamed on themselves.
Yujun took out a medium-grade potion and sprayed it on the wound of the unconscious elf.
He has plenty of good potions.
So there was no need to save his potions on future friends.
The remaining two elves were looking around in a panic because of the thick smoke.
As he approached in front, May was startled and backed away.
“It’s me.”
“Yu, Yujun? You’re alive? What about Kerial?”
“I killed them all.”
“…Killed?”
May widened her eyes.
“R-really?”
“Yes. Even if we kept talking, I don’t think we could come to an understanding. I shouldn’t have killed them?”
“No…You did a good job since they were the one who tried to kill you first. Anyway, thank you. I’m alive thanks to you.”
“Hey! Senia is in danger!”
Then an elf said in an urgent voice.
“I’ve already treated her.”
“…Treatment? How?”
“A potion.”
“You used a potion?”
“Yes. Luckily, just in time.”
“Thank you very much! We haven’t done anything for you…It feels like we’re only getting help.”
“No.
“It’s enough to let me in the mine.”
Yujun smiled and said so.
A sweet smile from the bottom of his heart.
He thought it would be best to put up a good image in front of the elves.
‘Maybe there will be a day when he can pray for the support of the interracial alliance.’
The elves had considerable power in the interracial alliance.
However, the problem is that they’re about to lose to the dark elves.
He had heard that they’re not an inherently bad race…
But now they were strangely aggressive.
There might be something dark that he doesn’t know.
‘I’m just making enemies for no reason.’
One dark elf has already gone to talk about the Seed of Yggdrasil.
It would be hard to maintain a good relationship with the dark elves, as the dark elf had already seen Yujun’s appearance.
‘It would have been the same if I hadn’t killed them anyway.’
When the unconscious elf came to her senses, Yujun and the elves left for an area with no smoke.
“But… what’s this smoke? Did you do it, Yujun?”
Asked May.
“Yes.”
“You have a lot of interesting things.”
“Thanks to my master. An unusual person who collects all sorts of things.”
“I really want to know who it is. It’s amazing that such a person isn’t famous.”
“He doesn’t like the attention.”
“Uwa…”
Yujun smiled awkwardly.
It felt strange to talk about someone who doesn’t really exist.
“What should we do? It’s not normal for the dark elves to attack us like this.”
“I have to go back and report it. The entrance to the mine is not far away…That’s our priority.”
“My priority is to find my master’s book. Shall we break up here first?”
“But…”
The elves hesitated.
They were ordered to keep a close watch on Yujun and stick to him.
But they can’t ignore the looming threat from the dark elves.
