Episode 316: A dark
fairy tale!
A fraud skill with performance comparable to the highest level of hiding technology that boasts perfect hiding.
It was the first time in a while that he had worn dark iron armor, but there was no sense of discomfort in X’s movements.
X rushed forward like a stream and instantly grabbed the elf scout by the scruff of the neck.
[Dark assimilation has been lifted!]
As soon as the notification was given, X appeared from the shade of the tree!
The elf scout was so startled that he struggled to his feet.
“What is this?”
“Wow, that’s a real elf.”
“...How dare this guy!”
How strong is your physical strength?
The elf scout reached out to X’s side when he didn’t budge no matter how much he shook his body.
Before he knew it, a dagger with an impressive leaf-shaped handle was in his hand.
“You brought this on yourself!”
Whoosh!
The elf scout gritted his teeth and swung his dagger. I’ve never killed a living being with my own hands, but wasn’t I a good scout?
There was no need to consider the life of an unholy intruder. It was the same with X.
Ting!
An elf’s dagger that bounces away mercilessly.
X likewise used the Massacre Tracker to block the scout’s attack.
Although the judgment was unexpectedly fast, the difference in strength was clear. Concern appeared on the elf scout’s face again.
“Fucking hell!”
You look handsome even when you make an impression.
X muttered so softly that he couldn’t be heard.
“Unlucky.”
The face of the scout, who was flawless and flawless, was distorted.
X admired briefly and drooled internally.
If these elves were used to serve Xernis part-time, the taxes collected would increase by several percent!
“Hmm.”
But I put aside my dark thoughts and cleared my throat. Anyway, there was nothing good about being hated by the elves.
X opened his mouth politely.
“Please forgive my rudeness. I couldn’t help it because I was frustrated.”
“...It’s frustrating?”
The scout was impressed by X’s polite attitude.
Not only that, the polite manner in which they used honorifics was different from the characteristics of other races on the disconnected continent that I had heard from other elves.
The scout tried to maintain his dignity and spoke.
“So, you are a dwarf after all? He seems taller than I thought, but looking at his not-so-prominent face, I’m sure he’s a dwarf, just like I heard. Rather, put me down quickly. “I can’t breathe.”
Quick!
‘See this? ‘He’s handsome and goes out very quickly.’
Kuuk!
X grabbed the back of his neck even harder, filled with petty emotions. And he spoke clearly.
“I’m sorry, but I am a human, not a dwarf. And you know that I won’t release you until I get what I want.”
X, whose sarcasm was offended by poor treatment!
X had heard about the elves’ personalities well, so he knew that threats were more effective than persuasion.
So naturally, there was no need to use polite language.
The scout’s snout was a source of trouble.
“evil! It hurts. Wow, I can’t believe I ended up like this! I will never forget this debt...?”
The face of the scout, who was tied to a rope and whose whole body became one with the tree, began to turn white.
This was because after finishing the capture, X immediately searched through his inventory and took out a sharp knife.
The scout thought he was finally going to die. He muttered in pain.
“Oh goddess!”
Of course, X was snorting.
“goddess? “I guess that goddess in heaven has a petty side and doesn’t care about your voice?”
Crack!
He cut the ingredients with a kitchen knife without even looking towards the scout. The scout, who had closed his eyes tightly, began to act like he was embarrassed.
“Don’t insult me anymore and kill me!”
“really?”
sparkle!
X held up a kitchen knife and asked back with an expressionless face.
“omg.”
Then the scout became mute.
X sighed inwardly.
The only human on the disconnected continent!
Since there were no humans on the Severed Continent, it appears that young elves like Hershawin were not taught about humans.
For X, that was actually a benefit.
‘I’m still not good at speaking, though.’
This is X, who has only held out carrots until now. But now it was necessary to get to the point about whipping.
Even though the deadline was 3 days, there was a possibility that another elf might come out of the waterfall.
Ex asked, looking at Hershawn.
“Anyway, what on earth is that waterfall?”
“waterfall? “I guess you saw it.”
Munching.
Hershawin, who was tearing off a chicken leg, continued casually.
“The waterfall is the door that connects us to the true world.”
“...the true world?”
“Yes, that’s a privilege only us elves have.”
Tuk-tuk.
Hershawin patted his chest, forgetting his own situation.
But Ex pleased Hershawin.
It seemed that the elves were calling their hideout the ‘True World’.
X spoke quietly with a hint of regret.
“Just hearing the name kills. “I can’t go, right?”
For a moment, Hershawn was silent.
After thinking for a moment, he smiled.
“Well, it wouldn’t be a big problem to bring in just one of you, but... unfortunately, I don’t have the authority to do that. “I will allow it later when I become an elder!”
Even if it works out well, it will be tens of thousands of years later! Hershawn, who added an afterword, burst into laughter.
‘Tens of thousands of years? ‘It’s time for even the white bones to rot, isn’t it?’
To X, none of the elven jokes were funny.
‘As expected, I can’t get there the normal way.’
Either use force.
Either commit fraud.
Numbers were needed.
X skillfully controlled his pace. Before the next question, he told his story.
“Actually, I’m not on good terms with your elf goddess. Of all the gods, he hates me especially? “I’d like to score some points, but what kind of offering would your goddess like?”
The axis of evil that blocks entry into heaven!
According to Titan, she was an elf when she was alive.
Considering that Hershawin brought up the word goddess in a moment of crisis, it seemed that the elves had a close relationship with the goddess.
‘With this level of intimacy, you can’t change your face in an instant.’
Because X had a part of him that he trusted, he brought up the story about himself.
But Hershawin’s expression was mysterious. Hershawn was making an inexplicable expression.
“...You know of the existence of the goddess?”
“huh? Yes, the one in heaven.”
As X pointed his finger to the sky, Hershawin burst into laughter.
“What else? She is not a goddess, but our ancestor. “I don’t know what you like.”
X was shocked for a moment.
Hershawin, who had little experience, would suddenly blurt out important information.
It was like that just now.
It seemed that the elves, including Hershawin, accurately understood the identities of the heavenly gods.
X judged calmly.
‘It’s no wonder they have an unusually long lifespan.’
Unlike humans, the past cannot be glorified.
Although I was convinced, the doubts still remained.
So who exactly is the ‘goddess’ that Hershawn sought at the moment of crisis?
For a moment, a memory passed before X’s eyes.
“...!”
A woman who brought the arrogant elves to their knees.
The woman with white hair was clearly the goddess Hershawn was talking about!
Other than the goddess, there was no other woman worthy of the elves’ reverence.
X soon smiled meaningfully and opened his mouth.
“He has white hair, right? He doesn’t have pointy ears like yours, but he gives off a very strange aura.”
Then an earthquake occurred in Hershawn’s pupil.
Tuk!
He barely managed to ask after dropping the skewer he was holding.
“...Did you really see the goddess?”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
