Chapter 307: Attack on the Elves(1)

Point-of-View: Belia Lasmodeus

———————————————————————————

Oh, this should be good...I was currently hovering above the Elf village in the Laus Domain...now, then, first up, I need to form the barrier around to forest to keep any potential interruptions at bay. I activated the spell, forming a dome-shaped barrier that was soundproof, highly dense, invisible, and prevented anyone from inside teleporting out or anyone from outside teleporting in. 

It was a pretty big barrier, but it was child's play for me...the heart of the Laus Domain, as in the four villages out together, was about fifty percent bigger than any one of the human nations, in terms of area. And each village was roughly about the same size, so I just needed to cover a quarter of the total space with my barrier. 

The only way to get through the barrier is with brute force...and the only ones possessing that kind of raw power in the Laus Domain were Sant himself and the Elemental Sages. Actually, scratch that, Sant won't be able to break it in his base form, he'd have to unleash his full power...and since that's a taboo set by Samsara, he won't do it so easily. 

Sant is probably in the area in the middle of the four villages, and as for the Elemental Sages...they were with him, and seemed to be getting ready to head out to their fortresses as soon as my army was spotted...heh, they're so not going to see this coming. 

It looks like their strategy is to try and spot my army approaching from their fortresses, and then whichever fortress spots us would send word back to inform the rest of which direction we're approaching from, and then they'd hold us off until reinforcements arrive. 

Sant really has underestimated me...over a thousand years ago, my mastery over my Dimensional Magic was much lower than it is now, I could just barely transport myself around, let alone an entire army that numbered in the hundreds of thousands. 

This is gonna catch him off guard so hard...right, then, let's get started. Ooh, before I bring in my army, I'll kick things off with a bang...I then raised my arms and formed a massive sphere of fire, lightning and wind, expanding it rapidly as it swirled and crackled violently. 

Take this...I rapidly swung my arms down, sending the massive sphere of destruction hurling towards the ground, striking the middle of the Elf village and causing a massive, blazing, sparking explosion, as drowned out screams briefly rang out before fading. I then got a good look at my handiwork as the dust from the explosion cleared...hey, not bad, not bad at all! 

I'd taken out a good chunk of the place, I'd say about ten percent...I shouldn't get greedy though, I should save the rest for my troops...heh, I'm such a good leader. 

I then opened several portals inside the Elf village, evenly spread out throughout the place, as I injected my army into the forest. Now, then, wreak havoc, my pawns, let me see the chaos you generate!

"Wow, so these are Elves, huh? Too bad they see humans as mortal enemies," I sighed wistfully, as Belia teleported us into the Elf village. 

It had only been like, ten seconds, but we were already surrounded. Oh, and by we, I mean myself, Gela and the four summons. 

"Gotta agree with you on that," Remarked Dwayne with a wry smile. 

"Let's take these ones out and then split up in groups of two," Suggested Shin, a dark look in his eyes as he drew out his sword. 

"Agreed, sounds like a plan," Replied Lily affirmatively, as Kyle nodded in agreement as well. 

Talk about wet blankets...well, whatever. There were nine Elves surrounding us, with arrows drawn and pointing at us. They look unsure and lacking in confidence...looks like Belia was right, the strongest of the Elves must have been deployed farther out to try and intercept us. 

These Elves look too uncertain to be real fighters...and they look pretty young too, I know that Elves are supposed to age slowly, but I'm pretty sure that these ones are on the younger, inexperienced side. That said...the hatred in their eyes is quite apparent, they really do despise humans, don't they? 

"Here they come!" Exclaimed Dwayne, as the Elves fired out their arrows, enhanced by wind swirling around the arrowheads. 

I swiftly put up a dome-shaped Absolute Defense barrier, which formed just in time to deflect all the arrows away. I then took it down and fired out streaks of lightning from my fingers as I entered Vampire Mode, zapping three of them and killing them, as the other Elves narrowly evaded getting struck. 

Before they could regroup, the others swiftly shot towards them, Dwayne closed in on one of them, who began to pull out an arrow but she was too slow, as he swung his spear across at her neck, decapitating her. 

As Kyle closed in on another one of the Elves, the Elf pulled out a dagger, extending it with wind and swinging it at Kyle, who blocked it with the handle of her hammer, before firing out a bolt of lightning from her free hand at the Elf, zapping and stunning him, and as the Elf stumbled back, she raised and swung her hammer straight down at him, smashing his head in and killing him in an instant. 

One of the remaining Elves was aiming a wind blast at Lily, who noticed and swiftly responded by flinging her trident at the Elf like a javelin, which sliced through the air as it shot towards the Elf, water blades rapidly swirling around the end. The Elf fired the wind blast, but in her panic, her aim was off, missing the trident. 

The trident then struck the Elf's chest before she could get out of the way, the swirling water blades tearing her body apart into several chunks and killing her. Another Elf let out a roar of fury and sprang up behind Lily with a sword raised, slashing it at her. 

She swiftly spun around and sprang back while holding her hand out towards the trident, making it zip back towards her. She narrowly avoided getting decapitated by blunting the slash by forming a ball of water around her neck, as the tip of the Elf's sword cut into the water and, as a result, only managed to graze her collarbone, right as the trident returned to her. 

Man, Belia modifying their bodies so that they can use Elemental Magic has seriously made them a lot more formidable. As the trident got within her grasp, she grabbed it by the very end of the handle to maximize her reach and swung it across at the Elf, who began to spring back, but was too slow, the top of his head getting sliced off. 

That left two more-...oh, never mind, Shin has already cut them down. Have to say, those Elves showed some decent agility and speed, obviously slower than all of us, but way faster than any human without monster power ups would be. 

I reverted to my base form and considered an option...hm, maybe I can try consuming Elf life forces, that might help power me up some more...yeah, I think I just might do that... 

"Hey, no fair, you didn't leave any for me!" Complained Gela indignantly. 

"You do realize that we're not here to have fun, right?" Frowned Shin disapprovingly. 

"Hmph, speak for yourself, you goody-goody," She replied with a huff. 

"Let's split up now, going in pairs should be more than safe enough, we're all quite a bit stronger than the Elves," I suggested, looking around at the others, who agreed to it. 

I went with Gela, Shin paired up with Kyle and the last pair was Lily and Dwayne. As we all split up and headed out in different directions, it wasn't long before Gela decided to change things up... 

"Hey, you know what, I think I would rather do this alone," She remarked, sounding bored, "Don't follow me!" 

With that, she changed direction and flew off...well, whatever, I don't care what happens to her...it would be kinda sad to lose a good fuck-buddy, but hey, all good things gotta come to an end sometime, right? 

Huh, maybe I can take a hot Elf chick as my sex slave or something. Hm, but is that a line I'm willing to cross...? Hah, who am I kidding!? Of course it is, I have no moral code or whatever, so who cares? 

Ah, right on schedule...my Lightning Sensory Field is picking up on a group of Elves straight ahead...time to have some fun...
