Chapter 60 Dark Elf (1)



"Fiona, are you sure it's okay to leave the master alone with those two? What if they decide to attack him?" 

Fiona simply flipped through the book she was reading, ignoring Amanda's question.

"Hey, answer me! This is dangerous. The master is amazing, but he doesn't have infinite resilience," Amanda said, positioning herself in front of Fiona.

Fiona stopped reading the book and looked directly at Amanda with a mischievous smile on her face. She replied, "That's why Dantalian needs to train."

"Huh? What do you mean by that?" asked Amanda.

Amanda and Fiona were outside the meeting room, in front of the door, while Dantalian was alone with Echidna and Anna.

' My plan was to deal with them separately... One is an angel hiding a sadistic demon, and the other is a true rule-abiding knight ' Dantalian thought.

Silence had taken over the room. Anna didn't know what to say to the savior of her kingdom, and Echidna remained an observer, not speaking unless asked.

' What were the dialogues in the game again?' Dantalian had ignored most of the original dialogues so far due to his actions not triggering them. However, in this situation, similar to his encounter with Duchess Marian, it would be best to use an established conversation to enhance it, not being limited to just three standard speech choices.

"As you can see, there is nothing to worry about. Your kingdom will gradually return to normal," Dantalian spoke, replicating exactly one of the original lines from the protagonist.

Dantalian's words made the tension in Anna's body disappear. "You're right. I really don't know how to thank you."

Anna placed her hand on her chin, pouting as she immersed herself in thought. "How about we go to the armory? Mr. Dantalian has a large group, so better weapons would be great. Did you know that the elves have a long-standing friendship with the dwarves? All their weapons are of the highest quality."

' What a peculiar sensation... A demon? How is it possible for a demon to be in this region? ' Echidna pondered, her trained senses able to detect any nearby danger. ' No, wait... It's impossible for a demon to come up here. None of them would be so foolish. Could it be this man? ' Echidna thought, looking at Dantalian with a twisted smile.

"Great idea, Anna. What do you think about going now?" Dantalian said, standing up and extending his hand to Anna.

"No, no, Miss Anna, you can't," Echidna exclaimed, grabbing Dantalian's hand.

"What's the problem, Echidna?" Anna asked, confused, looking at the two of them.

"Miss Echidna, did I do something wrong? Your strength seems a bit above normal," Dantalian spoke.

Even though Echidna knew about Dantalian's true intentions, she had no way to prove it. In this unexpected situation, she had only one path to follow: giving up. "Oh no, I... I just felt the need to repay you as well. What do you desire?" Echidna finished nervously laughing.

"Oh, Echidna, you're such a goody-two-shoes, aren't you?" Anna said, placing her hand over Echidna's and removing it. "But there's no need for that, right, Mr. Dantalian?"

"Of course, after all, my mission with you, madam, is to safely bring you back to your mother. Only when we arrive there unharmed can I claim my reward."

Dantalian placed his hand on his chin. "However, it would be good if you could see how Freytan is doing. You know, she went out to hunt monsters, but the ones in the Elven Kingdom are quite strong."

'I'll be very busy, and I won't be able to deal with you, Echidna, so please disappear, Echidna,' Dantalian thought.

"Indeed, now that you've solved the kingdom's central problem, wild beasts should start appearing again," Anna spoke.

"Well, if both of you agree to that, I can't refuse. I'll go check on Miss Freytan," Echidna said, distancing herself from them and leaving the room, meeting Amanda and Fiona.

"Both of you, your master will be busy collecting his reward, so he asked me to check on his other companion. Do you want to come with me?"

Before Amanda could say anything, Fiona quickly covered her mouth, standing up with a big smile. "Of course, let's help Freytan. She definitely needs assistance."

'Help her clean up all the corpses,' Fiona thought, leaving the castle along with Amanda and Echidna.

Now in the meeting room, only Dantalian and Anna were looking at each other.

"Shall we go to the warehouse?" Dantalian replied with another original line from the game.

'Let's avoid any further conversation and get straight to the main point,' Dantalian thought as his gaze traveled along every curve of Anna's body, from her feet to her head.

"Of course, follow me this way, Dantalian," Anna extended her hand, and Dantalian responded by holding it. The two of them passed through the door of the meeting room and headed directly to the warehouse. When they arrived, there were three elven knights wearing armor, each bearing the coat of arms of Anna's family, the Braviehein. The coat of arms depicted the face of Gaia, the goddess said to reside within the Great Mother according to legends.

'Haha, if that's true, it means a goddess had to submit to my desires and those of Amanda. How intriguing,' thought Dantalian, recalling the legend of Gaia as told in the game.I think you should take a look at

The central knight approached Dantalian and Anna, positioning the blade of his short axe towards Dantalian and speaking, "Princess, what has this human done? Is he blackmailing you?"

"Do you realize the mistake you're making?" Dantalian said.

"Huh? What are you talking about, you piece of shit?"

'Why the hell are the NPCs so annoying?' thought Dantalian.

Dantalian sighed.

"Leave now," Anna spoke in a loud tone, touching the blade of the axe with a single push to the left, distancing it from Dantalian's face.

"But princess, why are you doing this?" While the leader of the three knights continued speaking, the other two had already walked away calmly.

"Mr. Dantalian, I apologize for this," Amanda said, looking awkwardly at Dantalian.

Upon hearing this, the knight became even more enraged, but before he could do anything, Dantalian walked past him, completely ignoring his existence.

"There's no need to apologize. We just stopped to catch our breath, shall we continue?" Dantalian thought, 'Go ahead, lose your head. That's the only way I can beat you up.'

"Princess, what are you doing in a place like this with this human? Please, tell me what he did to you." The elf spoke, gripping the handle of his axe so tightly that it threatened to shatter.

Anna stopped next to the elf, speaking in a low tone. "I need to prepare a feast for the savior of the kingdom, so bring me meat from the red boar."

"Huh? But, princess... I'll die if I do that," the elf replied, forgetting everything he had just said.

"The red boar, and I want the leader's meat, the finest cut. Now, if you don't want to be dismissed, go now," an angelic aura emanated from Anna's smile as she pointed in the direction behind the warehouse.

"But, princess..."

"Go after the leader of the red boars immediately, or you will be condemned." The angelic smile remained on her face.

'This kind of scene would only happen in Chapter Two, how interesting to see it at the end of Chapter One,' thought Dantalian, gradually witnessing Anna undermining the excessive confidence of her own knight. 'But the red boar isn't even a striped monster, so why is he so concerned?'

Dantalian used his bonus to gather information about this character. 'Let me see his stats.'

When Dantalian found the complete description of the character, he saw something surprising. 'My goodness, he's weaker than blue-ranked adventurers... How did he manage that being an elf?'

Dantalian noticed the elf walking away. 'What a useless fellow, not even unlocking the powerful magic abilities of an elf.'

"So, now that the problem has been solved, how about we enter the warehouse? There, you'll surely find something interesting," Anna spoke, holding Dantalian's hand and heading towards the warehouse door.

As they entered, Anna took a few steps forward, opening her arms in front of hundreds of shelves, tables, and chests filled with gold coins, saying, "Dantalian, you can choose whatever you want in this room, so go ahead." Amanda clasped her hands behind her back.

The player's reward at this point is enough coins to do twenty pulls in the gacha, a reward worth the difficulty in the fight against Áclis. There are two more rewards: a relatively good sword that can be used by any Rank S character, but it's not something Dantalian is interested in. After all, out of the three rewards, he only wants one—the one called Anna.

'One of the only heroines you get for free, Anna, an Rank S character' thought Dantalian.

"So, let me make sure I understand correctly. I can choose anything that's in the warehouse, right?" Dantalian asked, looking around.

"Exactly, anything you want, just pick it up and it's yours," Anna explained.

"Without any exceptions?" Dantalian asked, pointing at Anna.

"Yes, no exceptions. Feel free to choose whatever you like," Anna replied.

Dantalian activated his divine hand, covering his legs and arms, taking a step forward towards Anna, quickly lifting her up in his arms and saying, "Then I choose you."

"Huh?"
