Chapter 951 Cap 949: Test Of A Father Part 1

When we arrived at the restaurant there were already many empty tables set up as if they were waiting for us, Diana's Father takes us to a large table where a White Elf was already sitting next to the man from earlier with the name of Harthos.

"Let's talk here today, the one next to me is the son of the current Elf Queen." (Harthos)

"My name is Fariel, nice to meet you." (Fariel)

I introduce myself to the Elf, then Klaus, Vanessa, Silvia, and Freya introduce themselves leaving only my sister arriving with a keg of beer on the table.

I introduce Kim and the others to both Harthos and Fariel, at our table only we were sitting to talk about some matters, Diana went along with Father to another table.

"You can say anything you want, no one can see or hear what we're doing at this table." (Fariel)

I look around and I don't notice anything right away, no matter what I do, I don't notice anything different.

"First of all, I would like to express the honor of being in the presence of the Nature Dragon and Miss Freya." (Fariel)

"Mr. Zenos mainly has my admiration, his deeds spread throughout the world, and the way he risked himself to save Miss Silvia will be marked forever in our history." (Fariel)

"You shouldn't thank me, my motives for doing these things were selfish, I was never a selfless person." (I)

"Everyone has reasons to do something, I am not ashamed of the reasons that led you to such achievements." (Fariel)

"You mentioned them, but what about me? Nobody's happy to see me?" (Natasha)

"I was instructed to avoid interacting with you, mainly not to make you nervous." (Fariel)

"What did you do on this island?" (I)

"Nothing, I swear, I've only had a few relationships." (Natasha)

"..." (I)

"Don't look at me like that, it wasn't too bad, what happened next was a surprise for everyone involved." (Natasha)

"I guess I don't want to know, sometimes ignorance can be bliss." (I)

"I think we should keep the conversation focused." (Klaus)

"Then let me talk about the current situation…" (Fariel)

------------

We spent the next few hours eating, drinking, and talking about our duties on the Island.

It seems that we still can't go to the Elf Village on this island, they are having an important meeting, it seems that this island is one of the targets of the Church of Light, in the last few weeks they have made many attacks that resulted in failure, but Fariel said that these attacks appeared to be to test the island's defenses and overall strength.

Because of that, we will have to wait a few days, not to mention that they need to gather some Elves with potential and some of them are still on mission.

After we talked about all this it was late afternoon, Diana was at some drinking competition with her Dad, and Érica was also there along with Kira and Ibuki.

When I looked at them seconds before Diana laid her head on the table falling asleep, I felt her Father looking at me and I understood what he wanted.

I got up going outside, when I opened the door he was already outside, I couldn't follow him with my eyes and I couldn't tell when he passed me.

"Where to now?" (I)

"Am I that transparent?" (Razor)

"His eyes show a lot of his will to fight." (I)

"Let's go to that yellow building." (Razor)

I follow Razor to a building that doesn't look that big from the outside, but I know it has expansion magic involved just like the rest of where we left.

The building itself looked like it was sized to fit a few hundred people inside, but when I entered I realized that the place was a battle arena with bleachers for thousands of people.

"Since the war started this place has just been a well-equipped training facility, but it's usually empty in the late afternoon." (Razor)

The two of us stand in the arena in the middle of this building, he pulls out bracelets full of drawings that I recognized as magic circles, he places them on his two arms and two legs, then starts infusing them with his mana.

"These are magic items that increase their weight according to the amount of mana in them, with them I won't be able to use even 30% of my physical capacity." (Razor)

"It will be a simple fight, without using skills, spells, items, Aura or Authority." (Razor)

"The same rules we use in our training." (I)

"I will only use one of my arms to attack and defend, I hope you don't get offended." (Razor)

"I'm not foolish enough to think that the only difference between us is our Strength Grade, you have more combat experience than me, even under the conditions you put yourself in I'm not sure I gain." (I)

"Let's start?" (I)

"Yes, the moment that coin hits the ground." (Razor)

He takes a bronze global coin and throws it in the air as we stand on either side of the arena.

I hope always keeping my eyes on him, as soon as the coin hits the ground my attack begins.

Pov Klaus:

I was in the town square which is still very busy when Harthos appears holding flowers with a smile on his face.

"These flowers..." (I)

"Don't look at me like that, I'm not stupid to bring you flowers… again…" (Harthos)

"Someone proposed to me and gave me flowers." (Harthos)

He and I sat on the bench in the square.

"How's the situation, is there anything you didn't mention at the meeting?" (I)

"I can't speak now for the same reason I didn't speak sooner." (Harthos)

"Where and when?" (I)

"When we get to the World Tree." (Harthos)

"We came across some spies in the early days of the war, there are also many eyes on the island, I think you can understand." (Harthos)

"Yes, but I'm going to need to know sooner or later." (I)

"It was always my plan to tell you, but in the end, it doesn't change what happens." (Harthos)

"How long until the next attack?" (I)

"We don't know, but it must be close." (Harthos)

I look around, there are almost no civilians in the city, most are Elves or Adventurers, and it seems that many of them are on guard as if expecting an attack.

"When can we go?" (I)

"The best would be tomorrow, but probably in 3 days, you guys were lucky to arrive earlier than expected." (Harthos)
